"I'm sorry"
Ademi's father, Captain Moen, first apologized to Mido.
"It was me who ordered my subordinates to take me to listen. I didn't think she would be tied up with a rope, and it was not reported that my father had requested a visit."
After seeing Tanta's abrasion on his arm, Midi seemed to be less angry, but she remained moody as she leaned down, but did not complain any more.
Tanta himself is getting better with a fried bread from Moen.
"Subordinates suspect that Ademi was killed by those in South Marsh."
"Well, the victim and the assailant are upside down."
"Ademi used to come here a little while ago. The guards were also adorable. So in this case, the awareness of the victims and the perpetrators has been reversed between the guards."
Therefore, it was likely that he had acted violently on Tanta, the Al side.
Moen was weary again.
"But Ademi hit my mom and dad."
Al, who had been silent for a long time, said so.
Hearing the words, Moen has a sad expression.
"Yes ... but only the attacked parents and Al-kun saw it."
"What does that mean?"
"What you saw was that he really was Ademi, and some suspected that."
"Hey!"
I screamed unintentionally.
Al's cheeks turn red with anger.
"Please calm down. I'm not saying you're lying. I can just think about it. This case is too mysterious."
That's for sure.
First, the victim only had a wound that had been beaten, despite being attacked with an ax.
Both of the victims were repeatedly beaten at the peak of the ax and were injured, including fractures, but had no life-threatening wounds. Bleeding was also hit on bleeding-prone areas such as the forehead and nose.
In addition, Ademi walks away, despite being able to stab them.
Next, what was the raid on Al's house?
True, Ademi hated half elves like Tanta and Al.
But would that bother to go to South Marsh, just south of Parliament Street, and go missing, attacking only Al's parents? And on a stormy day.
It is also puzzling that Ademi is missing.
Although Ademi is young and touching blessing, she is still in her early teens.
No matter how lazy Zoltan guards are, they are not incompetent to catch a child.
The only possibility is that Ademi left Zoltan that night, but this can also be ruled out because the next day was the day of the storm. That day wasn't a camp outside unless it was magic or a very special skill.
Finally, it is unclear where Ademi got the ax and why he used it. The weapon used by Ademi is a common single-edged battleaxe, as inferred from Al's testimony. It is a weapon that can be used with one hand or both hands, and many adventurers love it. It is not used by guards, nor is it a weapon that ordinary households have for self-defense.
The fighter's blessing is not special and he is not good at axes, but he fights with bottles and chairs on the spot, and above all, Ademi had his own short sword and short spear. He had already hunted nearby monsters to raise his level of blessing.
Why did you use an ax from somewhere without using your own weapon?
According to Ademi's movements that evening, Ademi's mother testified that she thought she was studying in her room. Of course, she wasn't watching Ademi, and she could get out of it if she wanted to.
Later, Ademi disappeared after being seen by Al and others during the raid, with no further witness testimony.
The easiest way to solve this problem is to say, "Als are lying."
Ademi exited the room on some other matter and was abducted outside. They testify that Ademi had been attacked by an ax and argued that Ademi was missing because of the escape.
If you think so, it makes some sense.
"It's bullshit!"
Al cried.
Moen told us almost the same as what I thought now.
Naturally, Al rebounded.
"It's just a hypothesis. And some guards think so. These guards feel the victims of the incident as if they were the perpetrators. It might have led to violent entrainment and rudeness. ''
Guards have a very bad attitude towards the victims of the incident.
Originally, guards disliked the security of the inhabitants ... in other words, residents of the slums of South Marsh.
In addition, Albert's fellow Campbell and three of his friends were born in South Marsh, and their feelings have been exacerbated by the killing of their guards.
Such attitudes have led to conflicts not only with residents of South Marsh, but also with other towns and villages, such as downtown.
"I certainly saw Ademi! With my ax, I beat my mother and dad over and over again! I beat him so many times! I know how terrible he was! "
Al cried out as if spitting out what he had accumulated.
Neither me nor Litt can say anything in the sword curtain.
But
"But I can't believe Ademi did that."
"Tanta !?"
"Ah, eh, sorry! Alright, it doesn't mean that Al is lying! Oh, it was just a week before Ademi was gone. I thought he would be beaten, but he apologized to me, sorry for the beat. "
Tanta is desperate to explain, despite being panicked by Al.
"I was worried about Ademi, too. The urge to bless her quickly became violent. He dreamed of becoming a guard. Did I say before that the guards would crack down rather than violently? Isn't it? "
"that is……"
"When I was apologized, I told her I was okay, I wouldn't hit me anymore, I didn't seem to be lying, I felt like I was returning to the old Ademi. I was surprised that I hit my uncles ... "
After Tanta managed to explain it, she came behind me and escaped from Al's gaze.
"..." "I'm alright. What do you think this means?"
"I do not understand"
In Tanta's explanation, I and Litt felt something about this.
Is it possible to control the blessing urge?
Moen caught his mouth while we were both confused.
"Actually, I was calling Tanta today and I'm going to ask you more about that. Indeed, just before my son died, it seemed very calm. I wanted to hear from a downtown adventurer that he was playing with him, and hear from Tanta directly. ''
"On that day, Ademi was also very happy and gave me an extra Wyvern race piece to apologize for."
Is it a child's privilege to forgive as soon as you get along once, despite that much fighting?
Tanta's tone does not reveal any resentment or doubt about Ademi.
"Yes, I miss the Wyvern race. I did well when I was a child."
Moen slightly relaxed his mouth.
After all, Mohen believes in his son's innocence.
That is also transmitted to the guards, creating the current situation ...
"Moen, what do you think?"
I told Moen with his eyes straight.
Moen initially endured my gaze, but then turned his eyes to the side and replied with a tired voice.
"I'm careful not to behave, but I guess this is because my inner soul is being passed on to subordinates, and I hate South Marsh residents. They're a gathering of criminals ... that's what I mean, no matter what I say in my mouth, in this case, I don't think Ademi is the culprit and she's in captivity in those in South Marsh Have you been killed? I think so. "
To that extent, Moen stood in front of Al.
Al is unconscious, and his left hand is attached to the handle of the short.
Just in case, I created a position to move at any time.
"I can't really do it. It's because of my weak heart that the Zoltan people are now struggling."
But Moen bowed deeply to Al, who is still a child.
“…………”
Al looked at Moen, bowing down, without saying anything with a confused look.
"Hero lit. I've heard that you've retired an adventurer. This time it may have just taken the form of a request to help Al-kun. I'm going to give you some information, and if you can help, we'll be rewarded. "
Moen said so and agreed that Litt would receive the information, "Let me hear the story," with a troubled expression.
So I and Litt were sitting on a chair in Moen's room.
Al and Tanta returned.
I wondered if he was complaining from Al, who was a party, but he just nodded if he was confused because he had apologized to Moen and returned to my store.
"I think it's a rude question, but I want to ask one."
"You were Red.
"Is there any evidence that Ademi used the drug?"
"!!"
Moen's complexion changes.
"I'm going to tell my son that he's the one who gets that kind of thing!"
"I don't know."
"Yes!"
"But you should know. Similarities to the case triggered by Albert's fellow Campbell earlier."
The weapon is an ax you should not be used to. A bad act without a reason.
And when the case is over, all the assailants have died, and this is missing.
"But even if his son was the culprit, he did not kill anyone!"
"Sure, so we're still in time. Probably Ademi is the culprit. But this isn't the bad act that caused him."
“…………”
"What do you know about that drug?"
Moen had a difficult face.
She seemed troubled for a while, but she opened her mouth.
"I don't have any confirmation yet because the Zoltan doesn't have the" appraisal "skills. He's asking for a sage or saint who can" approve "blessing from the center."
"Appraisal ... it's blessing too."
"Yes, that drug, we call it a false deity, but that could increase blessing."
Well, I don't know in detail, but the urge to bless will also change. So Ademi tried to tell Tanta that she had been freed from the urge to bless the fighter.
The reason why you have to use false drugs while still sending victims. A complaint about being a new self.
In order to be free from God's chosen role, people were even scouring dangerous drugs.
