No Fatigue: 24-jikan Tatakaeru Otoko no Tenseitan

- It was during the tabernacle of 'Beatrice' that the noise occurred.

"- Ahhh!

Suddenly I heard a high scream.

In that direction - the makeup room Senior Miglia headed for!

I got up from my second seat and ran out to scream.

The scream was heard from behind the western entrance and exit of the second class passenger seat.

Quickly through the entrance and exit with the enhanced leg strength of the "Immortalist", it is a hallway along the main road along the outer perimeter of the theatre. There are no entrances or exits to the left or right, and there is a straight line to the makeup room.

"Ed!"

They flew in a hurry on the way. Melvi caught up with them.

I get to the front of the makeup room with Melvi.

"- What's wrong!?"

In front of the ladies' makeup room, a young woman was falling out of her hips.

"Oh, that..."

The woman points inside the makeup room as she enters the floor.

The floor of the makeup room was bloodstained.

And behind it was a blood-soaked, aristocratic woman and the figure of Senior Miriam.

Senior Miriam has a red stain on her dress because of the woman's blood.

"Senior!"

"Mr. Edgar."

Senior Miriam uses [healing magic] by holding the neck of a blood-soaked aristocratic woman with her hands so hard... it just seemed too late to be honest.

The woman has her throat slit as well as her belly, and part of her bowel sticks out of her belly.

I look at the wall of the makeup room unexpectedly, but I didn't see the letter "X".

"This is what happens when I come to the makeup room... I barely breathe, but I'm very much as I am..."

"Didn't you see the Ripper?!?"

"When I tried to get into the makeup room, I was thrust away by a girl with a pair of pockets."

Girl with a girlfriend?

"Which way is the girl?!?"

"It's that way. I escaped to the back of the theater!

"Okay!

I nodded and jumped out of the makeup room.

The main road continued from the makeup room to the back, and there was a plain door on the poke that said no access except for those involved.

I explore the signs on the other side of the door that was closed before slipping into the back of the door.

Behind the door was like a dim behind-the-scenes.

"Wait, Ed! Tusher, Lavati's responding!

Melvi tells me as she takes Toshiya out of dimensional storage.

"A strong curse reaction - this way!

Melvi went through the back of the scene to the winning hand behind the scenes and opened the doors of the winning hand with the mindfulness of the "Psychic".

Behind it was a back alley with few people.

Melvi and I ran right through the back alley, turning left.

"Ugh!"

As soon as I thought the back alley had spread a little, I was going to a miserable crime scene and hit it.

Blood is scattered on the ground and on the walls of buildings, and young women are falling in the sea of blood.

The young woman had her throat and belly torn open and her uterus had been dragged out of her belly and revealed.

The hands and feet are torn apart and there are signs of being slapped by force around them.

And the alley walls had the usual letters similar to "X" written and beaten.

"- Ripper!"

But - it's crazy (...).

The Ripper (Ripper), who has now been murdered in the theater's makeup room, must have just escaped to this alley. Did the Ripper commit yet another crime in this short period of time? Besides, in a situation where a chaser might be needed?

"Ed! I'll think about it later! The Ripper may still be nearby!

I give back to Melvi.

"How did Toshiya react?

"It's gone..."

"Disappeared?

"I think I was pointing to this place until a while ago, and it just disappeared right before I got here."

What's this all about?

No, not if you're thinking about it now.

The sweet back alley was crooked, but there was no divide.

There's plenty of potential to catch up with the Ripper if you keep chasing him!

I detoured the scene so as not to disturb it and rushed further down the back alley.

As for time, would it be a few seconds, or less than 200 meters at a distance?

I was about to run into someone who suddenly appeared in front of me.

"Oops."

"Wow... shi, shiel!?"

What a Mr. Ciel it was that showed up there.

"Is it you again, Mr. Edgar? I've seen you a lot lately."

To Mr. Ciel, who is going to relax,

"Mr. Ciel! Has anyone come out now!?"

"No... no one has come out...?

Come on... did you let him get away?

"Since when has Mr. Ciel been here?

"Has it been around for a few minutes?"

"What the hell are you doing here?

"I say this place...... but that's the way it stands right there, right?

When Mr. Ciel told me to go look one block away, it was indeed surface street there.

"Look, there's the dining room, right? We had a late lunch on the terrace over there."

The dining room terrace seating was in a position with a good view of the exit from the back alley.

If you said you were there, you'd notice if someone came out of the back alley. That, too, cannot be unaware of Mr. Siel, the brave man, if a mutilator (ripper) appears who should be killing him shortly after the crime.

"Why did you come into the back alley?

"There was some noise, so I thought I'd check it out."

There seemed to be no lies in Mr. Ciel's words.

While doing so, Jeremiah appeared from the theater side through the back alley, then Brother Berhardt, who noticed the incident by [case detection] some time later.

This time Brother Berhardt, who remains a Dragon Knight gear rather than the "Mask of Moonlights" on the Moon Ride, first came to the theater, then later felt the reaction again and reached the scene in the back alley along the same path as me and Melvi.

When asked in detail, there was one major reaction the moment Senior Miglia and the woman in front of the makeup room encountered the scene of the mutilator (ripper) crime, and then there was a similar reaction when Melvi and I discovered the scene in the back alley. As usual, the Ripper kills the victim in an instant without his knowledge of the crime.

From there, even later, the officers knights came together and the area around the scene was to be sealed off.

The woman of the victim that Senior Miglia was seeing ended up not being helpful. Or it would be more right that Senior Miriam was dead at the time of his discovery.

I myself was to be asked what was going on by Mr. Corsey, who had rushed off to a room in the theater that the Sergeant Knights had rented out.

It should be noted that it was decided to refer to the incident at the theatre as the seventh case and the incident in the back alley as the eighth case.

This would mean that the Sergeant Knights certified that they were both the perpetrators of the Ripper.

In the seventh case, Ms. Corsey decided that there was no "X" on the scene, but that this was because Senior Miriam and a woman found her on the way to work.

On the road, asking Mr Corsey, who was to accompany him, the victim of the seventh incident was a noble woman who had come to watch 'Beatrice', and the victim of the eighth incident was one of the actress's eggs entering and leaving the Royal Theatre.

As with previous cases of cleaver (ripper), these two didn't see anything like contact.

"There's just one thing I can catch on to."

says Mr. Corsey.

In the eighth case, as in the sixth case, it was said that the victim had been ripped off his limbs during his lifetime.

This is assured by the fact that so-called "life reactions" (reactions of living organisms in the event of trauma, etc. on living bodies) are seen.

In other words, the victim will be killed while alive by the Ripper.

But then it would be weird if there was no reaction to Brother Berhardt's [case detection] at that point.

It was only when Melvi and I discovered the scene that [case detection] reacted to the eighth incident.

In that respect, the sixth and eighth cases are very similar. The adventurer in the sixth case was also supposedly killed alive, but there was no reaction to [case detection].

The situation at the scene - the fact that the bodies were being torn apart and the intensity of the way the flesh was splashed were the same as in the sixth case.

"The victim of the sixth case was a powerful adventurer. The victim of the eighth incident is an ordinary person, but I guess the Ripper (Ripper) couldn't afford it in the middle of escaping from the scene of the seventh incident. The Ripper, at the time of the sixth case and the eighth case, could be different from the other cases and put out" serious "…"

I wasn't even sure of Mr. Corsey's words, and he seemed half-hearted about what he was saying.

While I was talking to Mr. Corsey about the incident, I arrived in a room I had prepared for the theater.

In the room I was shown, there was a look of Donna.

"Edgar, Jeremiah."

Donna talks to me like that.

Dad, she's been talking to her mother, too, and I hear she'll be here soon.

Brother Berhardt apparently returned to the Dragon Knights' assignment after completing a situational hearing one step ahead. There should be an urgent contact with our Royal Detective, Brother David, and no matter how depressed you are with your broken heart, you will show up one of these days.

"What about Miguel and Beck?

"I have business with Mr. Moria. I have to go home."

Me and Jeremiah tried to keep talking to Donna,

"Uh-huh..."

I heard a groan and saw Melvi.

"What's the matter, Melvi?

When I heard that, Melvi snapped with a difficult face.

"I don't know why."

"What?

When I asked back, Melvi looked up and said:

"Why, I wonder if they were both (...) lying (...). Besides, you were supposed to be lying, and you were right about what you were saying?

What...?

"- What do you mean?

"What Miriam said, and what Ciel said, was a lie.

But when I chased Miriam like she said, I got to the scene of the mutilator's (ripper) crime. Besides, as Ciel said, if someone came out of there, it's hard to imagine that Ciel wouldn't find them. "

"So you're saying that Senior Miriam's testimony that she saw the Ripper and Mr. Ciel's testimony that no one came out of the alley was a lie"

Yeah. I mean, is this what this is all about?

Senior Miriam should not have seen the Ripper (...) and Mr. Ciel should be seeing the Ripper (...). No, not exactly. Mr. Ciel replied YES to the question "Did no one come out" and that was a lie, so he must have witnessed a mutilator (ripper) or someone else come out.

I don't know why.

If Senior Miriam hasn't seen the Ripper, Mr. Ciel hasn't seen the Ripper either.

Conversely, if Mr. Ciel is looking at the Ripper, it's not surprising that Senior Miriam is looking at the Ripper.

"The... should. But it turns out to be exactly what that testimony says."

"The Ripper (Ripper) should indeed only be able to escape in the direction of Senior Miriam's testimony, and in fact, there was the scene of the Ripper (Ripper) crime there. If so, it would be reasonable to determine that Senior Milia's testimony was correct. Ignore Melvi's testimony, though.

Meanwhile, suppose the Ripper (Ripper) emerged from the alley immediately after the crime, there is no reason for Mr. Ciel to miss the Ripper (Ripper). So Mr. Ciel must not have met the Ripper. In other words, Mr. Siel's testimony doesn't seem doubtful either.

So, if you look at the facts, it looks like the two testimonies were right. Nonetheless, the two of them were lying... "

"Senior Miriam testified that he was looking at a cleaver (ripper) that he wasn't supposed to have seen, and Mr. Ciel testified that no one had come out after missing the cleaver (ripper) that he was supposed to have gone through"

"It's like those two are conspiring to cover the Ripper."

No, wait, wait, wait. It doesn't necessarily have to be two people conspiring.

If you meditate on some inconsistencies...

I just started putting my thoughts together, and Donna told me.

"You know... I don't really like Mr. Ciel"

"... what do you mean?

Donna is not the type to say clearly that she likes or dislikes people. Yet there must be some reason to say so.

"... I was laughing"

"Huh?"

"Beck's the appendix? That guy ripped Beck-kun's stomach with a knife when he did, didn't he?

"Oh......"

Really handy and removed Beck's appendix.

In Donna's line today, as the "appendix" part was a lack of confidence, appropriate measures were in place, even though the cause should not yet be widely known in this world.

"That guy, Beck, when I stuck my knife out at you... I was laughing"

"Laugh..."

"This way, hey... it feels like laughing like thinning your lips and hoisting them..."

Donna says so and holds her body with her arms, trembling small.

Well, was it also because Donna was eating at Mr. Ciel then?

thats... yeah, i thought it sounded s s, is that it?

If it's true, it feels like you're stepping more than one foot into your hobby.

Hobbies of abuse, of course, come to mind about cleavers (rippers).

Summon the victims, kill them before they are alerted, carve the bodies in pieces, and escape unnoticed by anyone from the scene.

Of course, it will be easy for Mr. Ciel, a level 95 brave man.

Besides, Mr. Ciel has [empty walks].

Skill level minutes, seven steps in her case, a skill that can be taken in the air.

I feel very unable to jump over the lake in seven steps, but she is a level 95 brave.

Combining other skills and the power of the Holy Sword might make it possible to jump over that distance.

In fact, if I were you, I think I could manage to jump over that distance by combining some skills.

... No, it's possible for me indeed, but as I've said many times, you can erase the line that this is an advanced narrative trick and I was the killer.

In other words, about the fourth and fifth double homicides, it could also be possible for Mr. Ciel to do so.

Besides, if Mr. Ciel was a cleaver (ripper), the inconsistency about the testimony in the alley earlier would be resolved.

Mr. Ciel, who had just come out of the scene of the eighth incident (back alley) and completed the crime, was asked this question when he ran into us. "Hasn't anyone come out of here," he said. I testified against it that "no one came out," but this testimony has been lied to by Melvi. So surely "someone" came out of the alley.

If that "someone" were the Ripper (Ripper) = Mr. Ciel himself, the inconsistency in testimony would be resolved.... The question remains as to why Senior Miriam testified that he saw a cleaver (ripper) he hadn't even seen... Hate to suspect Mr. Ciel, the brave man you admire, and make up the girl of the devil? No, Senior Miriam and Mr. Ciel shouldn't have had any acquaintance.

One suspicious person after another, but don't catch something (...) every time.

Sometimes we deduce in part, but the whole picture of the cleaver (ripper) case just seems to be wrapped up in mystery and contradiction.

Brother David would have a different idea, but now he's sinking with a broken heart...

In the meantime, I've decided to look into Mr. Ciel as a Royal Detective Assistant.

◆

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Speaking to the innkeeper of Mr. Siel's stay, the innkeeper said so, lurking her voice.

The general is a fat middle-aged woman who seems to like rumors.

"Do you want to meet...?

"My face stays loose. We've all been rumoring that we're going to meet good people."

"But isn't that man so sutral to come to the king's capital?

"It's not time for a relationship between a man and a woman.

Boy might not know yet, but hey. "

It may be true that I neglected every color, but you said you did, you're that carnivorous brave woman. It's a little hard to think that there was actually a man, even though he moaned about not meeting a handsome nobleman.

Rather, then, it might be more convincing to think that the pleasure killer went out with a whack at what was about to happen.

Speaking of which...

During the battle with the devil, Mr. Ciel said he was just doing a "night walk".

But I didn't mean to catch the Ripper on the basket.

So, what the hell was Mr. Ciel's errand for the night?

Of course, there's the possibility that I was really purely enjoying my evening walk, but you can't be sure this isn't happening.

But the opponent is a level 95 brave man.

In the form of cautious pursuits, I decided to tail Mr. Siel with me and Jeremiah, who are good at hiding signs. I also wanted Melvi to be there, so I decided to ask him to follow me later as I contacted him at [Read More].

"... I'm here, Mr. Edgar"

Jeremiah whispers.

Looks like Mr. Ciel showed up from the inn.

The time is night. If it wasn't for Mr. Ciel, it wouldn't be the right time for a woman to walk out.

Mr. Ciel stepped into the back alley as me and Jeremiah tracked him down.

And...

"Oh, baby, you're so cute."

Mr. Ciel was crouching in the back alley and doing it by splitting the small fish between the nearby black and white cats. Additionally, when the tray is removed from the dimensional storage, the two cats pour milk out of the dimensional storage as well. The two cats try to compete and stick their heads in the tray to lick the milk away.

Unexpectedly, I got upset and leaked a slight sign.

"-! So, who!?"

Even if you're loosening your cheek to your cat opponent, there's just brave man, don't miss my instant lapse and look back.

"Mr. Ciel, what are you doing?

"E, Mr. Edgar!? Wow, you've seen a bad place..."

That's what Mr. Ciel said in the rare way he wandered.

"No, surprise, but it's not a bad thing to stick around, is it?

"Well, that's true..."

At the feet of Mr. Ciel, who is blushing, the cats who have finished drinking the milk rub their bodies to sound sweet.

"I recently heard you're leaving the inn at night, and maybe for this?

"Ugh..."

In my pursuit, Mr. Ciel was as flattered as he thought.

But what makes you so shy?

"I don't think it's about hiding..."

When I asked, Mr. Ciel said, fingering his cheek.

"Look, aren't I a character who can count on you?"

"Oh, really?

Powerfully, he's indeed a "dependable" Mr. Ciel, but I wonder if he's a sister character.

By the way, while me and Mr. Ciel are talking, the two cats are stranded in Jeremiah.

Melvi didn't like cats or looked unusual and unpleasant and kept her distance. Well, in Melvi's size, an animal called a cat can be a bit of a threat.

"Oh, yeah! So, uh, it would be helpful if you could keep your mouth shut that you like cats."

"As, well, fine..."

Somehow, it's getting silly to suspect that Mr. Ciel is a cleaver (ripper).

No, technically, I haven't cleared up my suspicion of Mr. Siel yet.

If this happens, why don't you ask directly?

"Mr. Ciel, if you'll excuse me, may I ask where and why you were when the cleaver (ripper) incident happened?

To my question, Mr. Ciel nodded as if he had finally made a point.

"I see, am I suspected"

"It's only a matter of possibility"

Thank you. I think my brother's cliche has shifted.

I will take out my notebook and tell you the date and time of each incident, and remind Mr. Ciel of what he did that day.

Mr. Ciel listened, nodding at me, thinking a little before saying.

"First of all, in December and January, when the first incident, the second incident occurred, I had not yet arrived in the King's Capital"

... Suddenly you have an alibi for the iron wall.

"I was in Wang Capital at the time of the third incident, but since then, every incident night, I should have been in the New Town Inn. Of course, I used to go outside to feed these kids."

"Is there anyone who can testify to that?

"I wish the Innkeeper would listen to me. Then, during the fourth and fifth cases, you exchanged information with the bard you knew. I think the story played and we talked pretty late."

We need to verify it, but the alibi's going to make it.

Speaking of which, is it a weakness that the alibi on the night of the sixth incident in the new city - the murder of an elf male adventurer - will be asked for by the general? Only to the brave, if only to deceive the lady general's eyes, he seems to manage.

But other than that, the alibi was pretty strong. You weren't in King's Capital when the Ripper case started in the first place.

On my way home, I asked Melvi just in case.

"That's right, Melvi. Mr. Ciel wasn't lying this time, was he?

"Yes."

If so, I don't even have to verify it.

Mr. Ciel can't be a Ripper.

Nevertheless...

"There are too many guys out at night..."

That's how I crushed the suspect when he showed up and I learned how to work my way through the charges.

- But I wasn't aware of it at this time.

The Ripper case welcomes the mountains without my knowledge, and the complicated thoughts are about to erupt into the world of the surface.
