"That's why, Jin. Maybe we should just do the plan."
"Hmm. You've already noticed our presence, mister"
Jin said, the love nest. Colette said, just a mountain hut.
They use it as an intelligence hub for the Demon King's Army.
What's inside are household property tools that don't have a hard time living, the belongings of the previous landlord, and a simple comm machine.
Only two spies possessed by the human army have received Akitsu Akira's assassination mission from their home country and are striving to gather information.
And this was the first time they knew that their existence was recognized by the Demon King's Army.
"Whatever you think, Jin, it's not your fault?
"Me? What did I do?
"Too much material embezzlement, good thing the demon king's army's military station transport is fragile, and too close to that old woman. You like extra mature women. You. We should have killed him to destroy the evidence."
"If you kill him, you'll get an assist. Besides, I didn't think you'd find out."
"Aren't you talented as a spy?
Colette's icy gaze, a gimp on her shoulder.
But on the other hand, Jin thought deeply. It is a question of the extent to which our existence is recognised.
I can see from Colette's testimony that she is coming to the Devil's Capital. It is also rare that Jin is human. But the existence of this mountain hut has not been noticed.
If it is noticed, it should be hooked up to the vigilance system he has independently stranded around the mountain hut.
If it hooks up, this mountain hut will have to burn to get a new base.
But they don't need it now.
If so, it would be good to just finish the mission and withdraw from the Devil's Capital, as Colette put it.
but......,
"Jin, are you listening? Or were you deaf?
"... I hear you. Colette, what are you gonna do if I kill you, Aquitsu?
"Stab me wrong. But kill the Demon King. It's settled."
Here it is.
Colette's obsession with the Demon King is a problem.
If you're going to say "withdraw from the Devil's Capital because you killed a subject" or something in this psychological situation, it would be Jin who gets killed.
Jin is not a soft person enough to be killed like such a little girl, but it affects his espionage activity that fewer pawns are available.
Well, for me spying on my own for a few years, it doesn't have any direct effect on my activities, with or without Colette.
I'll just be free.
"Why did such a troublesome woman, her own country come..."
"Did I say something?
To Colette's intimidating question, Gin can only answer by chewing a thousand ends of a cigar. Tasting the smoke, Jin thinks.
Regardless, it's about Colette.
I don't know much about Colette. I've never thought about knowing in depth, and if I do, I won't be able to truncate it when I have to.
But her obsession with the Demon King is unusual. There are limits to how much I resent you.
There was a strange lump there. Not that I have any certainty, but years of experience and understanding tell me so.
"I'll ask my own country. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't think they'll approve of the demon king's assassination..."
"So. well, I'll say 'thank you'"
"Heck, wait in anticipation."
Yes, while he was lying, he touched the Morse comms machine he had on his desk.
There is only one way to contact your home country. It is not about the acceptability of carrying out the demon king's assassination mission, but about Colette's circumstances.
I'm curious. Colette's past.
Because Ginn thinks Colette is too much -,
---
"It's a trick."
"Pouncy?"
"Yep. Espionage disqualification."
Soldier Station Station back with Mr. Riina, Mr. Yurier, and Mr. Clemens. And as soon as I got back, that's one thing from Mr. Clemens.
"On what grounds?
"Who do you think I am? My name is former Gendarmerie Senior Captain Claire Clemens. You can tell at a glance who is lying, who is hiding something, etc. We had a conversation, didn't we?
Oh, that's right.
... No, wait, wait.
I mean Mr. Clemens just now said "Pouncy" and "disqualified spy"......
"Was she a spy after all?!?"
"Have you noticed now? Eighty-nine, she's Cro."
What do you mean?
Mr. Sophia is in danger.
I can't believe you're seeing such a dangerous person on such a fun date!
No, but isn't it too easy to find a spy?
"... may be so"
but mr. Riina struck the chase.
"Huh, I heard the conversation between the two of you and I thought... that Cornelia guy, if I did, I'd ask him about Sophia. If we were in a normal conversation, we'd talk about ourselves a little bit, right?
"Indeed."
So you tried to extract information from Sophia, who belongs to the Demon King's Army?
How reckless. I don't think Mr. Sophia is going to pass the information on to the WHOY general public.
...... hmm? Doubts came to mind again.
"How come you didn't detain him right away?
And, Mr. Yurier.
It's not like the question that came to my mind, but it does bother me, too.
"To let you swim, to explore where the other fellow is. If Cornelia is an amateur and the other party is a pro, she runs away as soon as she finds out Cornelia's in custody and can't grasp her footsteps. Thought I should be cautious. And I want to know what you want to do."
"Do what? Well, the assassination of His Majesty..."
"The human army should also know that His Majesty cannot be killed when he is a spy. But why did you come to the Devil's Capital until you took the risk? I want to know that."
"I see... a tip-off, maybe an assassination of the director?
"Oh, no... But the director is now a heavy town in the Demon King's Army too..."
"And from the perspective of the human army, you're a war criminal who betrayed humanity."
Say, the three of you look at me at the same time.
but when it comes to me, it's a thought. As usual, it is a bother full of heads about Mr. Sophia.
But this time, it's a little important.
"Lord Akitsu?
"... Excuse me, Mr. Clemens. Hey, do you mind if I leave early today?
"What? Leaving early? Even if you leave early, Lord Akitsu's house is next door."
"I've got some private business to attend to. Now if you'll excuse me."
"Wait, wait, wait. Things..."
I rushed out of the barracks station, shaking off Mr. Clemens' stop. While apologizing in my heart that this filling will one day be absolute.
Something bothers me.
So much so that I can't sleep at night if I don't fix it.
Mr. Clemens, a former gendarme, said Cornelia, and a spy by the name of Colette as well, were pompous. He said it was easy to spot the trick.
Then why doesn't Mr. Sophia notice?
If you're Mr. Sophia, who can read in my mind, even if it's not the gendarmerie, even if it's not me, if you've been with her for a long time, Mr. Sophia must have finally spotted as much as she's lying.
Still, why are you still seeing me as a friend, without telling us anything?
I'm curious.
