"... eh"

Mr. Linaria stops at surprise at the whip that struck the foot sleigh.

Though I look at Master Courty with remorse as it is, the pivotal Master Courty does not break even a slight expression while looking down at Mr. Linaria with cold eyes.

How dare you leave Mr. Linaria alone?

"Don't interrupt! Out of the way, I'll remind her."

"There's no way they're going to say that."

Next to the cold verbal interaction between Master Courty and Mr. Linaria, I take up a bag of gems that Leo somehow leaned back and slapped off earlier.

"This is..." Leo mumbled with a frown root, staring seriously at the gem he had removed from inside.

But I do recognize that gem, too.

The pale yellow and green stone is the jewel that Me and Mr. Leo asked Mr. Oz to investigate the price in Wang Du.

Even though they wanted to buy it in the mine, it was sold at a pretty high price in the store.

Although not as small as the small stone scissors recommended by the civilian population, the large stones of good quality shown to the nobility were sold for an unlikely ten times higher price from the purchase price at the mine.

I heard a lot of gems were bought and flowing to other towns.

The jewels that rolled out of this bag are all beautiful, big and transparent, at the level introduced to me and my mother.

No way.

"Where did you get this jewel?"

Leo asks Linaria, with a tough face she can't even imagine from her usual languidity.

Having seen Leo's hand with a hazy face, Rinalia hastily tried to take Leo's bag from her, but not Leo, who would easily allow that to happen.

He turns away and picks her wrist with his left hand and twists it up.

"I want..."

"Linaria! You... let go of Linaria!

At a glance at the blood-changing Master Garua, Mr. Leo pushed Mr. Linaria back.

"It's not like I want to capture her. Yeah, you don't have to change your blood phase."

With Mr. Linaria behind her back again, Master Garua breathes in relief. Master Galua, with his sword in place without oil stairs, reached out his left hand towards Mr. Leo.

"The jewel was earned by paying the merchant. There's no reason why you should say that. I'll have it back."

"This one can't be so easy to give back. Because it's evidence of a case I'm investigating."

"What do you mean?

Looking back at Mr. Leo with a strange face, Mr. Courty sighs as he is convinced when he sees the yellow-green jewel on Mr. Leo's palm.

"Oh… that is. Maybe."
