The Adventure of the Boy With a Mind of a Middle-aged Man

Episode 58: Business Talks and Reports

When he moved to the first floor of the Sagami Chamber of Commerce and showed his face in the reception room, the two men and women were on each seat at the table.

One is the slave trader Dayuan Tightening - Spot (Ma Ta) and Hua Lao (Kato), who is the former Tightener of Whore Town.

Together with Jill's men - Tetsu and the others - they were protected by the Adventurer Alliance.

I heard the circumstances from them and the history of the case was revealed.

They were attacked by Munk and the others where Jill's business talks were about to be completed.

I'm in the middle of a business meeting with them and Jill.

Most importantly, in this case, they had already been stared at by [Laguna], and the two had already made up their minds to enter into a contract. Therefore, even when it comes to business discussions, we only focused on the contents of the contract.

"Now the contract is terminated. Nice to meet you."

I give my right hand to the two people who signed the contract and they shake it back.

"This is Sagami's young husband. My purpose is gold. This merchant will be gold, and I'd rather take it from a general merchant than slavery. For me, too."

The spots don't even try to hide their joy, but they proclaim it in a bouncing voice.

The contract details are as follows:

Spots buy money trafficked slaves nationwide from slave traders and transfer their claims to the Sagami Chamber of Commerce.

We ask them to pay us back in the form of hires and deductions from our monthly paychecks while providing food and clothing. In the meantime, they will receive a minimum of vocational training from our Chamber of Commerce.

At the end of the repayment, including interest, the Sagami Chamber of Commerce will conduct the recruitment test again for those wishing to do so. Such salt plums.

As yet, we cannot systematically take the aspect of forced labour, but it is impossible to try to change everything from the beginning. I think that's enough for now.

"That's good. Minimum screening is possible, right?

"Of course. That's in the contract, too. I'll look into your identity. I'll let you know if it's too much trouble."

As for the interviewer, there is one competent person, per heart.

It's that girl called Satori. From what I hear, it's called the ability to spot the lies of others. This is very useful to us.

After all, I'd definitely have to convince Akuw.

"Did you also install an understanding of the whores, Mr. Hua Lao?

"Yes. Originally, I don't like people who sell their bodies. Everyone has to work with financial problems, family problems, etc. Some customers were violent or grabbed by others. Especially -"

Hua Lao (Kato) has a bitter expression, mouths to bite, but gets stuck in words.

"[Laguna] Hey?

Hua Lao (Kato) pulls cocoon and jaw.

In the end, she admitted, because the substantial ruler of the society behind Straheim [Laguna] vanished with the death of the Quadruple - poisonous liquor.

So much so that an organization called [Laguna] may be absolute to those who live behind it.

"I repeat, [Laguna] will vanish soon enough. It's better for this world not to have a useless organization like that."

The outlaws are hundreds of years early, for example, involved in national politics. They are sophisticated, parasites that only the weak can touch. This distorted tissue needs to be dismantled as soon as possible.

"Sagami's young husband is horrible because he's serious about it"

The plaque flaunts my shoulder.

"Right. We are prepared to accept the background check as soon as it is complete. Please."

I have trouble coming to the middlemen, criminals, etc. I'm going to do it right there.

There are many stages that need to be taken, such as the solicitation of Akwu and Satori, but this is Jill's last job. I believe it is my duty to succeed in this business negotiation. Make sure you succeed.

"Well, now I'll be excused. I can't give you much hospitality, but if you like, you can take a slow lunch."

When I get up in my seat, the two of you stare at me with a strange face.

"What is it?

"I'm sorry"

The spots (mara) and the walrus (kato) bow their heads to me.

"I don't need you guys to be heartbroken about Jill. Because he only pierced his faith to the end.

But if you have a burden on him, do everything you can to make this deal work. "

Jill has only one purpose. Reducing one or more of those in their own indescribable circumstances with misfortune like slaves of destiny. That's the mission I took over.

I raised the end of my mouth to the two people who nodded and left the room.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

We have just completed our report to the Imperial Government after visiting the Imperial Mansion in this case.

Well, even when it came to the imperial government, the emperors aside, in fact, were meeting with the Secretary of the Interior, the gentleman with Kaisel's beard, and Baron Haklow, whose beard was the trademark. That is, verification of [Laguna] related cases.

"The one who creates the Awakening Demon King!? What a joking ability!!"

Emperor - I guess Georg's cry was the voice of everyone's heart on this occasion. Only shut your mouth with a face like everyone crushed the bitter bug.

I can't help it. The ability to freely create legendary demons that have destroyed the world six times. Certainly not as irrational and ridiculous an ability as this.

"The demonized poisonous liquor seems to have been quite demon-modified, which was quite a trick though."

"No, no, because I have no tricks or shit on my awakened demon king opponent!

A clerk's young man booms his right hand to the left and right with a bright blue face.

"Right, you've never heard of me pulling out any literature, such as the story of the brave man who defeated the Demon King by himself. Besides, there were two of them."

When Gaius, a long-time old man, smudges and gavels, his attendants agree to it one after the other.

Gaius, the guild general, also appears to be called this time as a reporter from the Adventurer's guild.

I'm not free either. Let's get down to business and get down to business.

"So, what about Straheim's [Laguna]?

"Poisoned liquor is death. [Laguna], which was based in Straheim, which was under that force, was also devastated. Besides, a number of families operating backwards have been asking the Imperial Government and the Adventurer Guild for protection. In fact, [Laguna] 's forces were swept away from Straheim"

"Really? That's good news."

The elimination of them in the Imperial capital must also begin as soon as possible. Yes. [Laguna] Hunting.

"The problem is the mastermind of demonizing others..."

"Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for this mastermind."

Together, something like relief spreads to my proclamation.

The mastermind pissed me off. For crossing the line, I'll give you the reward you deserve.

The problem is that he is badly amnesic and likely won't let him grab his tail inside.

"Right. Don't take the trouble."

to the words of the emperor Georg in such an out of place labor, flaunting his shoulders,

"I don't mind. More than that, this case saw a one-off settlement. Your Royal Highness, I would like you both to return to the Imperial City immediately."

I can't afford to take care of my child any more. Besides, the mastermind is dangerous on top of this. Poor, if you stick your neck in it, it could be Jill's two dances. Immediately, have him forcibly returned to Imperial City.

"I don't know..."

Georg scratches his cheeks with poly and mouth cage.

I have intense chills. This is the worst guy ever.

Therefore,

"I refuse"

I unequivocally assured you.

"Hey, I haven't said anything yet!!"

"Anyway, you keep babysitting, right?

"Babysitting... you're more of a child, aren't you?

voice-colored like a bottom of my heart, ignoring Gaius, who comes in to lay down,

"I categorically refuse!"

I strongly assure you.

"You know what? I convinced the two of you, too. But the case isn't over yet."

Emperor O of raises a pitiful voice. Damn, you'd be my brother and my father, even if you were. Then grip as tightly as those old ladies and daughters do.

"You're aware of the dangers of this case, aren't you? I'm sorry, but I can't go out with them any further."

"I know that. But the Lord knows how dangerous they are. Just start your own investigation even if you can't make it back to the capital. Then it's still safer to keep it with Sir. Didn't I?

Damn it! That's true. The two of us would definitely do that now.

"... it must be."

Narrow down the words somehow.

The two of them were quite shocked by Jill's death. Probably not wanting to take enemies or anything like that, but making no more sacrifices to the imperial people. Because of that sense of purpose, you want to capture the killer.

That's why it's dangerous. The enemy has not refused to be such a sweet being. I can easily use that noble emotion.

"Then can't you ask for it?

"Please don't. Anyway, I guess I don't have the right to veto, do I?

"Sorry."

To my sarcastic caged words, the Chancellor bows his head deeply.

"Then I'll do it."

I'm done talking. One more thing, I think I need to work out a plan.

stand up, and, once gracious, try to make it to the exit door,

"That's right, the First Prince of the Kingdom of Bitsray is due to visit soon. I'll take care of it."

"Huh? Why me?

Was Olivia a bad man? Like it or not is personal freedom. You can do whatever you want. But why should I be involved in the affection of men and women?

"For once, you're Olivia's fiancée candidate, too, right? Isn't that natural?

No, no, you, what are you talking about?

"That's just that beast running its own mouth!

"Don't worry. The First Prince seems to be busy, and he should be here for the time being."

"That's not the problem!

"Is that okay? You don't have time for this, do you?

Georg prompts that with his face, such as like a mischievously successful boy.

In short, you don't have a veto on this either? Everywhere, they bring in trouble.

While tongue-in-cheek, he embodied his anger all over his body, but now it was only after the building.
