"Mitsuha, strange rumors are spreading in the city....."

Later in the day after noon, Larsia said something like that.

"... strange rumors?"

Put your mouth on the cupped tea and ask back....

"Yes. Anything, a monster appeared at the Guard headquarters last night...."

Bfuuuuu!

Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!!

So, are you okay, Mitsuha!

"Ah, no, I'm sorry..."

He blew out his tea and poured it on Larsia.

And yet you're worried about me coughing without complaining.

Yeah, hey...

However, because I disappeared in just a moment, I thought I was looking at it wrong or falling asleep, and I didn't think I'd report it upstairs...

I didn't have any evidence, and I thought I'd just be treated like a liar, skipped sleep, or suspected of being sane, so I thought I'd keep it in my mind.Damn, did I hit someone serious...?

"So, the monster was a boy between the ages of 11 and 12 with big eyes protruding....."

Huh?

I feel like there was a word I couldn't discard right now...

Well, what body shape?

I overheard it.

And Larsia replied....

"Yes, she looked like a boy between the ages of 11 and 12.

The guards who discovered the monster had no time to slowly observe and immediately pulled out the sword and cut it, so they could only see the upper body, but they weren't wearing clothes and they were naked in a color like dry dirt, so I'm sure.... "

……

"Is that it? Is something wrong?"

…………

"Um... Mitsuha?"

………………

"Well, well, what's the matter?"

"... crush"

Oh, no, of course, I don't think all the guards are villains.Only some senior officials would be willing to accept bribes.I don't think most of them are respectable people who are working on dangerous assignments with low monthly salaries for the people of King's City.

That's why I was going to crush only the bad guys, not the serious ones.

... but the guy who saw me in Leotard and reported me as a 'naked boy'.I can't!!



After all, I left the recorder installed at the guard headquarters.

The number of installations was as small as two planned, but it was already installed where good stories could be expected, so I decided to do so.

Because it happened yesterday, you may be on alert, or you may have a trap.I let people steal under the floor, behind the ceiling, in the costume dance...

Compared to the benefits of adding recorders to two locations where the importance is low, the cost-effectiveness, risk & return are too poor.This is the only way to go.

The chances of finding the recorder you planted are low.

Perhaps he hastily checked the contents of the safe containing important documents, but if a suspicious person breaks in and steals something, he will not expect to leave a souvenir (souvenir), so he will not notice the ultra-small recorder pasted where it is difficult to find it.

Well, even if they find us, there's no problem.It's just less than 5,000 yen a piece.

... ah, the one with the external microphone is a little more expensive...

However, it was unfortunate that the guard headquarters was found...

If this had been some sort of merchant, it was possible that all merchants would have been aware of the crisis and vigilant, and would have started sleeping rounds and night patrols by security guards.

But if it was Guard headquarters, the merchant had nothing to do with it.So there won't be any particular security enhancements.

That's why the harder guards should wait for the recorder to be retrieved and record it for a long time, while the merchants investigate.

Yeah, safety first.

Now, we are in the identification phase.Don't let them find out...

Who is the enemy and who is the ally.

Spread to the side.

Stretch up.

And when we figure it all out... it shows up to all the bad guys.

There's a bad boy!

A visiting god who brings evil and misfortune.

For one thing, I want you to come to this world.



"... so please!"

Again?

"It's more than last time!"

Colette and Sabine pushed the mountain of recorders collected from the merchant all the way to complain.

Yeah, well, it's a lot more than last time...

"It's okay, because the recording period per recording is increasing."

"" I don't know what's 'okay'!! "

Mm-hmm, you're breathing!

"I'm relieved I still have a few more plans."

"" So, where is' peace of mind '!! "

All right, both of you are one and the same!

"Let's name Colette White and Sabine Black!"

"Shut up!"

"Ah, my synchronization with Colette has been disturbed...."

"Don't try to deceive me! I can't help it, so I'll take care of the job, but I'll get paid properly!"

Yeah, Sabine, whatever you say, helps me when I'm really in trouble.

And of course, Colette.

... and demanding a proper reward.As usual...

"Ah, the one I gave you last time...."

"No! That was that time!This is a new request, isn't it? "

"Gu...."

Oh no...

Regardless of Colette's "ticket that allows me to pass once", I can't give Sabine any more "ticket that gives me a convenient tool of my designated Mitsuha homeland".

Besides, the job of checking the contents of the recording is likely to continue a few more times...

But I'll never get paid or anything like that, these two....

I wonder if there's any good reward.

I wonder if the business relationship is over this time, and then I'll just focus on the Guard and "on top of that"...
