It was about five minutes after we told them what we really wanted.
Micah stopped at one point the gaze that was drifting in her absence, closing her eyes as if she were going back to something.
"That tea set, it belonged to Anna, after all"
"... really strange, it's like being seen through my heart"
Ha, and Micah sighs, arms up and stretches out big.
"I haven't missed Anna in a long time since I watched that one. I'm sure he won't be here today, but if we just go in front of the room, we'll be fine."
Micah says so and walks out into the hallway when she looks at me.
Come on, that's what I'm guessing.
"I'm coming, Liesha."
"... thank you"
"Huh?"
Turning to Reesha, who accidentally thanked me, there is no one there.
Is that it? When I thought about it, they held my hand, after I was pulled forward.
Eventually we visit the corner of the second floor.
The number assigned to the front room is room 207.
It can be seen from the condition of the floors and doors that this room has not been used for some time.
Even if I pulled my hand on the knob, the door was locked as a matter of course.
"So, what do you do?
Micah says.
Speaking of which, we talked about having an administrator, so there's also a way to make contact again under the guise of Anna's officials and get them inside.
But let's make that a last resort.
"Liesha, can this key be opened with magical things?
"It's hard when you open it. These keys are machined in such a way that they cannot be magically interfered with."
I see. Is it unique to the world where magic is popular?
"So you're saying it has to be magic to be possible?
"Uh, yes. You can magically destroy or physically kick through the door itself...... so what are you doing?
I heard good things about that.
If it was a magic guide to the keys, it would have been great.
I fold the hairpin I was wearing and stick it in the keyhole.
I didn't think the props I was using to make you look a little girly would help here.
"Such a preemptive Ward tablet, if only I knew how it works, in an instant - see, it's open"
Make a rattling noise and the pin turns.
"All right, I'm coming in, Liesha."
"... Rosie"
"Yeah?"
I'm looking at this one with Reesha's worried face.
Next door was Micah, who had a surprising opening of her mouth.
"Never abuse that skill."
"I won't..."
Maybe.
I'm sure, probably.
"Oh, yeah, yeah. What will Mr. Micah do?
"What, me?
"If you want to turn back, it's now. If you come in with us, you'll miss us, so you won't be able to get away with it when it's a problem."
"It's..."
"I don't want to bother you. So I want you to turn back here."
It doesn't matter if I tell you that I was just being deceived into letting outsiders inside.
It would be possible to escape if we took the liberty of showing you to your room.
But it's no surprise that he acquiesced in unlawful unlocking and deemed to have abandoned his duties if he even went inside with him.
Worst of all, you could be punished after dismissal.
"... ok, I'll do what you say"
That's fine.
I only wanted you to avoid destroying yourself driven by a weird sense of justice.
"Oh, but, uh... look, it's a woman's room for once..."
"Consider. Unless there's more to it, Riesha's around."
"Yes, leave it to me!
Leaving Micah snorting on the spot, me and Risha went into the room together.
Indoors are terribly hot and humid because of the long deadline.
The worst development seems to have been avoided that it has already run out somewhere in the room because it does not smell particularly bad, although it smells dusty.
Or if so, are you discovering it sooner?
"Reesha, look at this"
"It's a maid's shoe."
There's no such thing as a weirdo, a regular black leather shoe.
"There are signs that I wore there from the way my heels were reduced. But it's still pretty enough to wear normally because it's well maintained. And yet, this is here."
"Are you saying that it's not at work that you're gone?
"Right, and I see another possibility."
Let's go inside and continue to lead Liesha.
The first thing I noticed was the kitchen.
No garbage, no dishes to wash.
Only the maids seem to be cleaning up their living space properly.
Just in case.
There's dust on the faucet.
No signs of use.
"Rosie, the bathroom is beautiful, except it's dusty too"
Copy that. Next.
Proceed to the back of the room.
There was a bed and a desk and a chair in the room about seven tatami tatami, and a figure and a closet beside it.
The curtains are closed and dim.
Aside from being dusty, it is well organized and gives a very slight impression.
"Reesha asked for a closet, and I got a desk."
"Okay."
"Oh, see if there's anything strange about how you fold clothes or get laid."
Conduct a room survey by hand.
Well, I hope I have an alley.
On the desk are pen stands and ink, magic guides like desklights, and paperweights.
The tip of the pen... Whoa, that's pretty well used.
This looks like something you can expect.
Open the first drawer of the desk.
There were potatoes, envelopes, waxes and strings.
……
There's nothing in the second drawer.
Same goes for the third step.
And the fourth stage was crated.
The contents are massive letters.
Most of them were orphanage administrators, children there, and people in the city where the orphanage was located.
And I take one envelope from it. [M]
Paper texture, the touch is clearly different from the others.
Turn over and see the sender.
"Found -"
Coincidence, or was it intentionally left behind?
Either way at this time.
When I snuck out one of them and turned it into a bag, I put the crate back in the drawer as if nothing had happened.
