Reincarnation Monarch
Episode 229: Bench
"... it was you, Dr. Boronez, who murdered Mr. Degus, wasn't it?
Gaius questioned the Bolognese with a straight ball for no reason.
Bolognese then turned his face toward Gaius and said something amazing, wondering if he'd stared at the children's plaything that was sarcastically tucked away in the corner of the park for a while.
"... that's right. Sally... I'm the one who killed Salia Degus. You get it, don't you?
Gaius accidentally put it on his face because he didn't think Boronez would admit the crime so lightly.
Then Bolognese, who saw it, smiled slightly.
"Mr. Gaius, was it so surprising that I confessed to the crime?... or did you even want to twitch and question the killer and finally make him confess his crime, like a famous detective in a novel? If that's the case, then you've done something you're sorry about.
"Yes, no, that's not why..."
Although Gaius barely denied it, the truth was that he was not less upset because he was completely told what he thought in his heart.
Then all of a sudden, I heard a cat squeal from under the bench.
"Oh, it's a cat. Which..."
Boronez leaned in and peered under the bench when he said so.
Gaius took a slow, deep breath during this time without making any noise and managed to calm down his feelings.
And in my heart I thanked Elle under the bench.
"Mm-hmm. You look like a shy cat. He wouldn't let me stroke him."
Boronez was an unfortunate mouthful, but there was no expression on its face, and Gaius was quite suspicious as to whether it was really unfortunate.
For that reason, Gaius tried to inflate the topic in order to explore Bolognese's true state of mind.
"Really? That was very unfortunate, wasn't it? Dr. Boronez seems to like cats, doesn't he?
But Bolognese didn't come on it and suddenly pulled back the story with his true face.
"Better than that, don't you have something else to ask why Sally was decapitated?
Gaius faced again, and when he didn't say two words and hesitated, Elle came again from under the bench to make a cat squeal.
Then all of a sudden, Bolognese screamed.
"Shut up! Cats!"
And scratched the ground with his nails, 27615; and soiled it under the bench.
Then Elle couldn't stop jumping out from under the bench and dashed away to the hedge in the corner of the park.
But Bolonez didn't realize that Elle had popped out, or he kept scratching 27615; scratching soil all the time with his nails peeling off as he yelled even more, relentlessly soiling under the bench.
"Shut up! Shut up! Be quiet!
Gaius was first relieved to remember that it was Elle, not the real cat, who was under the bench, even though he was bewildered by Bolognese's too abrupt behavior.
(Well I feel sorry for him, but he'll be fine because he's el... I mean, he won't get mad at the el guy and try to kill Boronez, will he?... Are you okay? ……
Gaius kept his fear of life a secret in his heart as he watched Bolognese's unusual behavior.
