00286 Rendezvous

“Te, terrorism? ”

“Yes.”

What's this sudden banging of the trunk? Rod opens his gaze at the letter handed to him from Anylox. His eyes, which were reading the letter, were wide open, then half-closed, then frowned completely.

“…… What do you mean? It's not continental.”

“It was an encrypted document that needed to know a specific keyword. So our intelligence agency took the head and they cracked it open. ”

Then why did you give it to me? Lord grunts and places the letter on his desk.

“What was it about? ”

“On the second day of the conference, I was going to commit terrorism. ”

“ ……! ”

Rod's body rises.

“Is that true? Where did you get this letter? ”

Anylox chuckles as he slams his jaw. In a while, 100% of the attention I received from Lord felt good.

“I got lucky. We got their crows. ”

“…… a crow. ”

Crows are the most important means of communication between spies and intelligence units. If you look up at the sky in Underhaim, you can easily see crows rushing back and forth.

Perhaps these unknown terrorists knew that their primary means of communication were crows, and they sent crows up to keep them out of the way. Rod was able to easily deduce this far.

This is definitely not a bad way. Secondly, although ‘communication correction equipment’ is a fairly expensive piece of magic that is not available to the general public, all communication correction equipment used by Underhaim is registered with the Information Department. Unregistered communication magic could be detected by the intelligence agency if activated within the Underhaim. However, if you use a crow or a forehead, you can avoid this detection.

However, the terrorists overlooked one thing, so even the same raven varieties were different. The 'Small Beak Crow’, which is used by the Ministry of Information, is a special species that cannot be found in other regions. It can only be bred within the Ministry of Information. It appears that a patrol intelligence officer accidentally witnessed a letter tied to the leg of a common raven hovering in the sky and killed it.

“You're well aware of our situation, but was there anything other than a date? ”

“Yes, I did not. ”

“…… hmm. ”

The rod presses down on the temples.

“Ugh, trouble. How long has this been going on with Gawain? ”

“… I agree. ”

“Who did they send them to... Any guesses? ”

Anylox opens her mouth as if she had already prepared an answer to the question.

“Underheim has strict access controls over outsiders. There are only outsiders in the territory who are involved in the talks. That is……. ”

Rod's face hardens as he listens to the story.

“…… maybe one of the Great Lords? ”

“Yep, I think it's highly likely that all the party members are directly employed by the lord himself. ”

“This is really messed up. ”

I thought I needed to prepare for the Great Lord's Conference, but now I have more important matters to deal with.

I had to find an accomplice, hiding the fact that the royal family knew about the terrorists.

*

After Anylox left, Lord summoned Eve to discuss the matter.

“Hah, that's too bad. ”

She mutters, following the steaming tea in a cup.

“I can't believe terrorism is going to happen at such an important meeting.... ”

Then he placed a cup of tea with tea in front of the road. Lord thanked me and took the cup of tea.

“Here's a letter from an outsider who can't come through the gates of Underheim with confidence. Terrorism will also be led by outsiders, and inside counsel will either help them or inform them. ”

Rod drank a cup of tea in a hoagie breeze. Oh! I was amazed. Eve is one of the busiest minds in the city, but she insisted on making her own car without calling Maid just as much as she was in the office. Thanks to that, even though her teachings have improved every day and are now at their best, it was no exaggeration. Shouldn't we just be expressing our own abilities by now? Naming is like Goddess of Tea Ceremony.

Eve continues the conversation with Lord Lord in a cup of tea with such useless delusions.

“But aren't we taking it too seriously? In fact, it may not be what we think it is, but rather what the lords are describing as a saboteur trying to control other competitors. ”

“Well, it doesn't make any sense...... but if you're a saboteur, you don't have to bother communicating with the outside. ”

“… Well, yeah. ”

While the two people were enjoying the tea and pondering over the arrangements, the door of the clerk's office opened with a bang.

“Hello everyone! ”

Unibell waves his hand.

“Greetings! Your Majesty! And you guys!”

Somehow, Harvard was with him. As long as two of the loudest men in the Abyss showed up, the peaceful tea time was forced to end.

“Uh, panda! What are you drinking? ”

“Tea. Smokey Earl Grey. ”

It's not a car for a kid like you to enjoy, so don't look over it. Rod replied with the meaning. However, Unibell slumps at Eve with interest in Lord's teacup.

“Eve! Eve! I want cocoa! ”

“Oh-ho-ho! I'd like a coffee, please! ”

“Got it.”

Eve starts scavenging the shelves, looking for ingredients for the tea.

Look at that rude creature who takes advantage of the Royal Secretary of the Abyss for granted. That is why it is said that if the favor continues, it is a right.

Even so, Eve has never said a word she dislikes. If you ask me to boil tea, I can see you smiling and rejoicing. It's a problem even if you like people too much.

As Lord was once again delusional about the car, the three narratives were flowing towards the Great Pit.

“Ah, everyone's in a frenzy over that meeting! What to give! What to take! There are new roads and improvements in certain territories! Which territory will have the most budget! What an interesting topic indeed! ”

“…… I didn't realize you were interested in these political conferences, Harvard. ”

Lord told me in surprise.

“Of course I'm interested, Your Majesty! Science has to have money after all! I'm going to see the lords to attract investment! You need information about the meeting so you know what the customer needs! ”

“Hmph, what a filthy adult. ”

Unibell mutters like that and looks at Lord.

“What were you talking about with Eve before we got here? ”

“… Huh? About the conference... ”

“Why does the word ‘terrorism’ come up when I'm talking to you? ”

“ ……! ”

Oops, did you hear that?

The noticeable unibell does not miss the firm expression on the road. Her expression hardens, as if she had read an unusual hint.

“Oooh! Terrorism! Terrorism! What a surprise...! ”

“Quiet. ”

Lord quickly shuts Harbert's mouth.

“Hey, panda! Does it have anything to do with Annie saying it's classified? Tell me.”

Unibell is speaking with a very serious face.

“…… Unibel. ”

“I've had enough of terrorism! Who else could get hurt? I'll never see that. I'm going to stop it somehow.”

Lord looks back at Eve with an embarrassed look on his face.

“Wouldn't these two be okay? I heard about terrorism anyway, so it's better to tell them everything and keep them quiet. ”

Eve, right? ’Let's give them a slight glance,' they nodded in haste.

“Yes, you can't. Maybe the more brains we have, the better we can do. ”

Lord explained the situation to both of them.

“What the hell! Is that it?"

Unibell smiles as confidently as she can.

“Oh, is there something good going on? ”

“We'll figure it out when we find the right guy, right? It's simple! Let's release the soldiers and take the Lord and all the children below and make them blow! Because Revolutionary kids are good at that...! ”

“... you would torture all those innocent people to find my client? I am so touched that I will devote my allegiance to Abyss. ”

Your lips narrow as if unibells were sputtering from Lord's ridicule.

“Then it's time for me to finally step out! ”

Harbert, searching for Juju Island's pockets, pulls out a small box and flickers it up.

“This is Harvard's lie detector! ”

Unibell and Eve look at it with surprised eyes.

“Oh, lie detection? Magic armor? ”

“No way! It's made with the power of science, of course! ”

“… I'm surprised. A lie detector. ”

They were astonished by the concept of a machine that uncovers lies, but Lord's reaction was exhausting. Rod approached Harvard and said, "If you ask him how it works, you'll hear him preaching all day long."

“Let's test it, shall we? Guess if I'm lying or telling the truth. ”

“Very well! Your Majesty! ”

Harvard pulls the antenna out of the box, points it towards the rod, and presses the switch. You hear a hissing sound of something working.

“Here we go! Your Majesty!"

“I love Harvard. ”

Beep, beep, beep, beep. Beep Beep Beam. You hear a shocking sound, and the machine glows green.

“Oh! You speak the truth! I knew it! Science is great...! ”

“… I just didn't eat it! ”

And then Eve and Unibell said, "Of course. 'I saw him with my own eyes. The curiosity of detecting lies seemed to have caused him to forget that this was Harvard's invention.

“Huh? What's the matter? ”

Harvard asks, "I don't understand everyone's reaction."

“It came out right, didn't it? ”

“ ……. ”

“Of course you love this Harbert, Abyss' greatest scientist! You can't cheat a lie detector! ”

“Ah! I'll try again, then. ”

Lord told me.

“I want to grab Harvard right now. ”

Bee Bee Beem Beem! Another green light came in.

“Oh, right again! ”

Harvard flickers his arms overhead.

“Your heart wants to rule as tightly as your loving and caring heart! Understood!”

“You're just sticking together! ”

“…… Your Majesty. ”

Eve silences Harvard by giving him a sharp glance.

“If there's a possibility of terrorism, why don't we just postpone the talks later? It's too risky.You don't have to do it at the appointed time... ”

Lord shakes his head.

“I don't want to be seen surrendering to this important talk of terrorism, and most of all, I want to find out who my client is. That's a hell of a chance to find out about the terrorists. I can't miss this. ”

Unibell and Harbert swoop right in.

“Hmph, just bring them all in and smash them and they'll blow! This is why it's a problem if the country gets too good! The old-fashioned way! ”

“There may be individual variables! With this harbert lie detector...! ”

“Quiet, you two. ”

“ ……. ”

In the end, there seemed to be no harvest to draw them in. Lord thought for a moment and said,

“First, let's unravel the Intelligence Agents and gather information about each of the Great Lords. And triple Underhaim's guards. If you don't have a positive ID, don't let them set foot in the city. ”

The maggots nod. Lord's gaze became clear.

“Make this meeting work. ”
