Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)
Chapter 170: May Festival (Pleasant Day) 1. Banks - The Promiser of Trouble
At this time in time, Jance, who is the Squadron Leader of the First Battalion Fifth Squadron Infantry Second Platoon of the Kingdom of Illustria, learned that God in Trouble loves her, or that there are races that are unlikely to be hit by incidents large or small but never seriously affected.
Speaking of which, he had come to the town of Banks with Boris Carlock, platoon captain of Infantry Platoon II, for the rest of the holidays he had finally taken during the May Festival. The first Squadron Leader of the 5th Squadron Infantry 2nd Platoon, which is the form in which he was entrusted with the amulet of one of the platoon leaders.
That said, I was only a little late, but with my slightly blind boss, but I was lucky to still get a break during the May festival. I'll have to bring back one of my souvenirs to the people who should still be on security duty. It's annoying. We can relax after we leave the security mission.
... It was Jans who thought it was so cheap, but I am immediately reminded that the idea was sweet. Somehow, in the past half-day, I've been misled, I've been stuck in a scratch, I've picked up my wallet that scratch dropped, I've gone the wrong way, I've run into a suddenly ill person the wrong way - and I've been struck by an amount of accidents about whether a normal person can digest even in a lifetime. Based on the words of the platoon captain Boris Carlock himself, his parents had told him to stay out of the crowd, but I just don't think so. I'm sure your parents had a hard time too.
It was Jans, who was immersed in the thoughts with such distant eyes, but was to be drawn back to an unresponsive and ruthless reality.
"... Squad leader, this kid, he looks lost..."
Captain Boris, with a troubled look on his face, was pulling the little girl's hand. I'm holding hands tight for some reason, but looking at it from the edge...
"... Platoon Commander. With all due respect, it just seems like you're trying to grab a child by unraveling the logic of things?
"Yeah, I am. But this kid let go of his hand..."
Let go of my hand when I say that. No, the girl does - vividly without a knowledgeable spy - and leaves the scene and is about to get lost in the crowd. She hastily grabbed the hand, but the girl was not only noisy, violent, or wolfish, but remained intact.
"... I understand the circumstances in which the platoon chief won't let go, but what about the circumstances in which this child is alone here?
"Oh, this kid says..."
"I'm here for the eagle!
From what the girl told me without even showing her how she was going to get caught up in the aftermath, it turned out that her name was Lisbette Royle, apparently she had eaten the cotton candy she ate yesterday and had escaped the inn again, that she was coming to Banks town with her grandfather, that it was not the inn she was staying in, but the house she knew her grandfather.
"... that's it, but what the hell are you going to do with this kid?
From the mouth of Jans, who says so, the true meaning of wanting to hassle even the little plague god to the guard jar just now comes through with a shine. but Boris has a say in being Boris...
"I know what the Squad Leader's trying to say, but we just sent this kid to the jar, and there's no guarantee we're not getting out of there any more, is there? In doing so, things also develop into liability issues. In that case, the assurance that we will not be selected as the subject of the transfer of responsibility..."
"... there isn't, indeed"
That concern is understandable as certain, but what Jans cares about is another concern, and this one is pressing in a way.
"... but you can't ignore the possibility that you can be mistaken for a kidnapper - can you?
Two bad men are pulling away a young girl with a good body shape. It's not strange that they're calling in at this moment right now. Revealing the qualities of the platoon chief would solve the misunderstanding, but it is inevitable that instead they would be made into a joke story story.
"Yeah. So..."
And he said, Boris lifted his shoulder to shoulder. Even though it was Jans who wondered what it would be like to have a girl in a good house on her shoulder, Lisbette and the girl with the name tag looked fine… or obviously she was shining her eyes.
"No kid hates shoulder cars. Besides, it's easy for the people who came looking for us to find this, and convince us that we're not kidnappers, right?
"Ha..."
If you ask me, I don't know. But I don't.
"... So, what do we do after this? Aren't we supposed to go to the guard jar?
"Let's just go buy some cotton candy. If you don't buy it when you see it, it's not going to convince her."
This platoon leader will run into trouble with you if you do it without darkness, and that will not have serious consequences. If you do, maybe this kid's case won't turn out so awkward (first) either.
It was only with that in mind that Jeans followed the superior officer who had the girl on his shoulder.
