"That's why I brought you here because you were passing out, not kidnapping"

"Good thing I was passing out. Kidnapping......?

"That's why it's not kidnapping..."

I try my best to figure out the misunderstandings somehow, but they don't clear my suspicions.

Well...... there's not that many people who are supposed to walk during that time, and I can snort it hard to believe it from the person...

"Anyway, I was just letting you sleep here because I'm worried about you, no other reason. You look good, and if you're anxious about being kidnapped, you don't mind if I ask you to leave now. The front door leaves this room, to the left."

"I will."

When she stood up, she walked straight out of the room.

At that time, a sound rang from her stomach as if to convey hunger.

"... uh, do you want something to eat...?

That's what I told her when she stopped pitifully, she shook her neck sideways with her face forward.

"No, I don't owe you any more."

"Borrow...?

Huh? I thought you were mistaken for being kidnapped.

"I just wanted to thank you for helping me where I was tired and fell. Thank you."

That said, she ran towards the front door.

"... you didn't misunderstand me from the start...?

What do you mean? Could I have just been teased?

No, well, it's many times better than being misunderstood...

"... no, now is not the time"

I turned my gaze to the dirty futon after she slept.

I knew this would happen if I let him sleep with those dirty clothes... We need to do something about this futon...

Even so, I can't help but leave it in this room, and carry this futon for now...

When I thought so and lifted the futon, I heard a knock on the front door.

Who's there early in the morning? It's also possible that the kid just came back...

When I dropped the lifted futon in its original position, I walked to the front door.

"Who.................................... Luli?

"Hello, Al"

There was a smiling Luli at the front door...... but something is wrong with Luli somewhere.

I'm laughing, but it's like I'm not laughing... what is this? I feel instinctive fear...

"Duh, what's up? Is something wrong?

"Hmm? It's nothing, huh? I just need a minute. But before I do, can I ask you one thing?

"Oh, oh...... All right?"

Rulli told me with a black grin that I accepted the favor, freaking out inside.

"Uh... earlier when I was on my way to Al's house, I saw a pretty girl come out of this house, wondering who she was."

"Huh...?

Could it be that Luli is mistaken that I kidnapped that girl...?

No, it doesn't have to be. It's not strange if a strange girl comes out of a man's house she knows early in the morning to get it wrong.

"Also, could it be... that's what it is...?

They think you kidnapped him!?

From the sadness caused by the assumption that a criminal had come out of my acquaintance, or seeing Luli in tears, I hastily clarified.

"No! Actually, I couldn't sleep last night and I was walking, and I saw that kid fall by chance, and I was just hugging him on us! Nothing more! Because there's nothing nasty about kidnapping or anything like that!!

"... Huh? Kidnapping?"

Seeing Luli with a decent face, I snapped my neck.

"No, isn't Luli mistaken that I kidnapped that kid...?

"I wouldn't make that mistake!? I know Al wouldn't do that!

"Oh, really...? Then what are you mistaken for?"

"And anyway, I'm happy to hear what I want to hear! Can we get down to business then?!? Isn't that nice!?

"Ooh..."

I just feel like I've been gobbled up pretty hard, but I'm back to my usual luli, okay?

"So, what's the point? Is something wrong?

"No. It's not like something happened, but I'm leaving King's Capital for a while because of the request, so I thought I'd tell you that."

"... don't you have to tell me this early in the morning...?

"... in the morning? It's almost lunch, isn't it?

..................... Huh? Lunch already? You're lying, aren't you?

"No, 'cause I just woke up...?

"Maybe that was tired and I fell asleep for a long time?... I haven't been well lately."

"... did you notice?"

"Yeah. So don't push it too hard, huh?

"... oh"

Fall told me the same thing before, and I need to be a little careful......

After having a little chat with me after this, Luli said it was time to ask and left.
