Previously on "Genius Scammers Want to Live in Rack Even when Reborn"...
Rosie was brought to the village of Seylan as a replacement for the mysterious girl Stia.
By pretending to be a fortune-teller with paranormal powers, he wins daily food and trust while interacting with entertainment-starved villagers.
However, the situation moves when one of the villagers is burned to death with a flame that makes him unidentifiable.
The organisation that divides the village of Seiran, the victims identified by the Ibels of Muskel from the relics, are Ol' Lot.
... is the result of the disguise the killer set up to make it look that way.
The true victim was Keira's father, Dan, who was waging violence against Keira, Ol's lover.
Yes, Ol, who seemed to have been killed, and Keira, upset to see the burnt body, were the culprits of Dan's murder.
I've decided to get Ol killed. Yeah, Rosie dares to acquiesce to this fact when she reveals that she planned to put all her sins on Dan by playing Mad Kidnapping.
We decided to help the plan accomplish, provided that we were allowed to use the loopholes that led outside the village, which were owned by Ol and Keira.
Logie used her achievements and trust as a fortune teller to make the villagers assume that the series of incidents was due to Dan. Immediately afterwards, the recognition shall be made robust by burning Dan and Keira's house so that it may be discovered at an exquisite time and causing Keira to disappear.
Having succeeded in forming a search party and trying to find Dan, who was already dead, Rosie began to move her own plans behind it.

Day 2.
As a matter of course, the search continued the following day with no progress.
I haven't found any beneficial traces since yesterday, whether it's a small quote or an eye for troops that seem to have 30.
They weren't the only ones in a hurry, so was I.
If we don't have a clue about this, the search's eyes will turn from the inside out.
Ultimately, I'm gonna let you do that. But now is not the time. It takes a lot of order and performance to make up a fictional escape play.
It doesn't make sense to just give them the feeling that they're hunting them down unilaterally.
It is the tracker himself who thinks, acts, and grabs it with his hand that becomes more authentic.
Even though I've gained some trust, I'm just a newcomer here.
If you show too much activity openly, the suspicion doesn't necessarily arise among the villagers that you are performing a selfie to make it your handle.
In a situation where we have to cross a narrow and unreliable line from now on, even a little suspicion will kill us.
Nevertheless, there's no point in letting those two get away without leaving them to their accomplishments.
If the Muskells can't even get to the rails of the plan, they'll need to let me find them, even at the risk of my suspicions.
Well, I started to wonder what was going on, and then...
"I found it! It's after meals!
The people around me raised their faces almost simultaneously to such a voice.
Finally, he exhales one thought and walks in the direction of his voice.
Leaf vegetable cores remained in the dirt that was dug back and changed color.
Of course it was purposefully designed to be found. If I were on the escape side, I wouldn't leave such plain evidence.
"Are there any reports of vegetables being stolen from nearby fields?"
I'm guessing you've come with a report. Ibel asks the surrounding masks.
As they looked at each other, one of them stepped forward and pointed to a field a little further away.
"There was a report of theft from a janitor around there this morning. That means there was no anomaly during yesterday's work, so it was supposedly stolen during last night."
"You ran out of food in your hand while you were on the run for a day, or you wanted to keep your hand warm."
"Is he lurking around here?"
"It will likely be. Why don't you ask the fortune teller?
That's what Ibel looks at me for.
I could see the look on the other side of the mask that I would try.
However, the obvious difference is that we started leaning towards those who expect results rather than half-heartedness.
I think I did well in a short period of time.... Almost there.
"Fine, let's see. Can I borrow that?
Take the core of the dug out leafy vegetables and close your eyes. It would be frigid as soon as you say bump at it.
Nevertheless, it's not the story after showing a miraculous middle in front of a large crowd.
Become finding a special meaning in meaningless behavior. That's what it is, like a pathetic believer getting himself hooked on a bad religion.
"... it's blurry"
"What?
"The strings are really connected to the two of us. It's just the contours ahead are blurry. I don't think he's anywhere near here."
"You mean we just ate and moved?
"Right. I wanted to leave this place as soon as I could, because my feelings of impatience and fright are stained with leftovers. I guess it's because I know the village so well, I plugged in the morning sun around here, and maybe I was panicking when I realized there was nowhere to hide."
"I see, it is indeed sunny here. Before dawn it would be easy to touch the human eye if you didn't just leave. All right, all right. Let's call off the search in this vicinity. Next, we'll focus on lurking, notify everyone."
Masked humans scatter to the people in Ibel's voice.
The first gate has now been cleared.
How far can you extend this situation while maintaining trust in me? [M]
Uh-huh.
