Brain was quietly waiting for someone in a classroom that was no longer in use.
The time is 13: 10.
The door opened in a hurry.
"Whoa, Brain, you're here already!"
Brain's friend Sirless, with the same iron badge, showed up cheerfully and relaxed.
Brain opens his mouth.
"I called. I can't keep you waiting."
"This is bullshit!
Sirless laughed.
"No, no, I know you're a magician.... how could that crazy Brain skip class again?
Surrez laughs funny.
Surrez is right. It's class time now. Yesterday's noise has made me self-study.
Brain has never left class before.
"... because I wanted to talk to you when no one was around, Sales."
Huh. Why would you do that?
Sirless laughs.
"Ah, you're confession time!? Sorry, Brain. I think you're a good guy, but I..."
Last night.
Brain ignored Sirless's light-mouth.
Surrez smiles at Brain, who looks like he's stuck together.
"Oh, really? I'm sorry, let me talk to you."
I doubt you.
"What do you suspect? Doubt what?
"Yesterday's commotion - wasn't it you who caused it?
"Yesterday's commotion, that undead commotion?
Surrez opened his eyes in surprise.
And Ahahahahaha! and laughed loudly. I laughed for a second and then I kept on like this.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Brain, I'm a student, right? You can't summon an undead like that, can you? Can you do it for the chief?
"I can't."
"Right? Well, then, I can't do anything worse than you!
"... I don't know..."
Brain shook his neck short.
"I don't think you're serious."
"That's too much to buy!
Surrez laughs.
"Do you have any solid evidence that I did it in the first place?
"... yesterday night, I broke down an undead sorcery squad. At that time, I had a habit of some of the characters drawn by the magic team."
Brain kept staring at Sirless.
"That habit was with you, Sales, as I know it."
Heh.
Surrez doesn't break his nasty expression.
"It's interesting - it's sad to be suspected just because of that. Isn't that a coincidence?
"That's not all. I was attacked by a black scumbag in the school building after I destroyed the sorcery team."
"Huh? So?
"I fought him then, but his movements were very similar to yours."
Brain was confident in this conclusion.
After enrollment, Brain often teamed up with Sirless as a volunteer trainer. It boosts Brain's self - by his will.
Body surgery that hit each other many times.
Brain knows the weight of Surrey's bumps and kick start.
"... Sales, what were you doing last night?
"I slept in my room. You said you had a headache. Come on, let's make an alibi!
"I'm sorry, but that's not evidence."
Brain shakes his head.
"Use magic to play back your words in response to knocking on the door."
"That's not true. You can't argue with that!
"Last night, the three of us with the Iron Academy medal made a request to move out. You know that, right?
You taught me, Brain.
Brain nodded at Sirless's words.
Brain, who returned to the dorm with Alberto last night, is visiting Surrey's room and talking about it.
"Why didn't you show me your face when I asked you to come with me?" My friend called me. "
"Sorry. My head hurt so much I couldn't afford it. I got a little better while I was asleep."
"... I see. After all, you were mistaken...."
Brain sighs and crushes.
The words confirmed Surrez's lies.
"I'm not the one who called you on a mission. Alberto and Professor Philbus."
For the first time, Sirless's expression was shaking. Brain suspected Sirless's mistake from last night's exchange.
--That was the one who called me! I'm sorry, I can't talk much!
That's how I lowered my head to Brain.
To Brain.
That's what Brain thinks he's been talking about. That's why Brain got sick here.
"What do you mean, Sirless?
"Nooo, ahahahaha...."
After laughing in trouble...
Salles shouted with his hands wide open.
"Fuhahahahahaha! Well noticed, Detective Brain! You're still the one who stands in the way of this Surrez ambition!
"Captcha Net!"
Brain pulled out his cane from his waist and pointed it toward Surrez.
At the same time, the net of light expands around where Sirless was, and converges to the center at a rate that is as if the rubber were shrinking.
But the net didn't catch anyone.
"Aahhhhhhhhhh! I'm scared, Brain! I can't believe you just let the magic go!
Surrez had already fallen back.
Brain tilts his neck.
"You confessed...?
"No, no, no! I'm kidding! Nakan!
Surrez flickers as usual.
"You know, Brain. Indeed, I was mistaken. I was mistaken that you called. But you can't help it, can you? I was asleep with a headache. I don't care whose voice it is."
I see.
"You convinced me?
No, not yet.
"Yeah!? Still have it!?
Take off your clothes.
"What about it?"
Suddenly, Surrez reacted to Brain's words.
"Why is that all of a sudden when this story unfolds! Oh, I knew you'd confess! I'm sorry, but I--"
"Don't try to fool me. I want to see your left flank."
Brain turned his sharp gaze toward the surless.
The smile finally disappears from Surrez's face.
"... come on? Is there something on my left flank?
"When the black man attacked me - I hit him in the left flank. If you answer that, there must be traces."
"... and it's on my side."
"Yes, it is."
Brain kept nodding.
"To show my innocence. You want me to help you?
"I'm sorry, but I can't do that...."
It was time for Salles to change his posture. It's not what it used to be. It can adapt to any situation.
Stay alert to everything.
Brain stared at such a state with a dark feeling.
Surrez and I spent a lot of time after school.
Apparently, the friendship ends here, too.
"Captcha Net!"
It was magic again, but the results were the same.
Soon Surrez avoids magic. And then...
"Magic Arrow, Magic Arrow!
He threw two arrows at his right hand.
Brain also avoided, and there was a crack in the window glass from behind. Surrez filled the brain in one stroke.
――
Brain knocked out Surrey's attack.
Surrez's body skills were sadly the same as yesterday. Everything is the same: the weight of the bumps and the kicking trajectory.
Sirless laughed at Brain's eyes.
"Hahaha, that was yesterday's review!
Brain takes a small breath.
Yesterday's review.
I have no intention of hiding it anymore.
"... you!
"That's right, that's right! That's Dr. Brain!"
Sirless laughs.
"I'm the man who expected the darkness!
... darkness...?
Mysterious words catch Brain's head. For a moment, Surrez's knee kicked into the brain.
"Ugh!?
Brain blows up and retreats to the window.
Sirless narrowed the distance and pushed Brain's chest out the window.
The window must have been cracked by the magic arrow earlier, and Brain's upper body was pushed out unobstructed. A fragment of glass stuck to the lower side stuck to Brain's back.
"... * giggle *!
Sirless peers up at Brain, who grips his face with pain.
"Fufufufu. Well, my best friend Brain. It's a present from me."
A black flame lit up on Surrez's right index finger.
"Make a deal with me and become a dark warrior.
