Bernard, who managed to spend the night, leaves Agnes to his servant and goes to work in the dark.

Despite going to work earlier than usual, the Knights in the morning were busy.

Catch another member of the night shift and ask what happened.

"The goods in the vault were stolen."

"what?"

"I don't even know the details"

"I see. It was a hard time."

Bernard changed into a knight's suit and headed to the office of the third assault unit of his own.

Lazar is already at work and is turning to documents with difficult faces.

"Good morning"

"Oh, it's fast."

"There are a lot of things."

"Really"

Hand over the documents you were holding to Bernard with a bitter look.

The details of today's fuss were written there.

The boy knight mentioned earlier that something had been stolen, but that was in the wedding costume of Agnes' mother.

"this is--!"

"The criminal was on the spot, and the operation was progressing to the stage of investigating, but this incident destroyed everything."

The person assumed to be the culprit had an on-site absence certificate (alibi). Therefore, the way to resolve the case is interrupted, and he returns to the beginning.

"I can only imagine that there is a secret in some wedding outfit, but she seems to remain silent."

Añez, the father and former governor, states that he makes a statement about his wrongdoing, but he is tightly closed.

"What is Miss Agnes doing?"

"I'm fine"

"That's good"

She says she is in danger. I don't think it's irrelevant to this case

"I think it would be better to take her to a safe area-"

"!"

Bernard hears that Agnes is going elsewhere, and is struck by a frustration that cannot be described in words.

I don't do that, I wanted to say that I managed to do her thing, but I couldn't always keep her by my side and I wasn't in a position to protect it perfectly.

"Since the royal capital is in this situation, it may be better to spend in the countryside."

Lazar suggests that you take her to Bernard's hometown, as she was talking about her mother and sister-in-law.

"But my mother and my sister-in-law have been attacked once. Does the criminal know the whereabouts of the territory?"

"Really……"

If Agnies is revealed, his steps are easily grasped.

If you were to take me, I thought you would prefer a village in the southwest where Lazar's relatives were.

"I will consider this once."

"Please, as soon as possible."

"OK"

Bernard was replying to the postcard, but somehow his chest was nervous and he felt uncomfortable.

Whether the mystery of the case is stiring my heart, or whether it is like this by thinking of Agnes, I can not grasp the cause by myself.

"Speaking of which, what happened to Ernesto Balteremon last night?"

"Oh, that's-"

Report on Ernest.

"Has he finally changed his mind?"

"What about it? Anyone can say it by mouth."

"Tough"

"Because he's not so long with him."

"Well, that's right."

Lazar says he will report above, as he did with Ernest.

"Well, the knights won't be stripped, but the removal from the guards and the associated salary cuts and downsizing will surely be there, and that's where he will do his best."

"I agree"

Bernard secretly hoped that he would work hard in areas unrelated to him and return his stigma.

◇◇◇

After a day of flapping in the theft case, go home.

First, they gathered servants and explained that the wedding costumes kept by the Knights had been stolen, and instructed them to be more vigilant.

Afterwards, we will have dinner with Agnies for his mother, sister-in-law and nephew niece, and after the meal we will have a fun night around the game board.

Even at night, they moved to their bedrooms.

Jizil prepared hot milk for Bernard and Agnes.

"what's this?"

"Both of us had occasionally difficult faces."

Speaking of kittens, I recommend that you drink them well and sleep well.

"Hey Jizil, have the bedroom curtains been put back?"

"Yes, don't worry"

It was Bernard who was deeply relieved to hear that.

If you are alone, you will notice that there is something.

"What happened to the cat?"

"I'm going to sleep with my kids today."

"Yes"

Miel was active as a playmate for children.

She says she will spend the night with her younger siblings under the supervision of her sister-in-law.

Agnes talked about the events of the day today.

"Today we make cookies together"

In the past, he could only die-cut, but this time he made it from fabric.

The finished product was wrapped cleanly and handed to Bernard.

"I think it was very delicious."

"Really"

Thank you and received.

If this was a gift from Jizil, he was ashamed and refused. But somehow, in front of Agnes, I was able to receive it honestly.

Thank you for eating tomorrow, even during breaks.

"... sorry for everything"

"e?"

"No, thank you for being good with my family."

"I'm honored to be able to make friends with such wonderful people."

Being described as a wonderful family, Bernard feels like nothing.

I was grateful to be calm, kind and kind to my family.

Looking at Agnies, she turned a pale smile.

If you witness it, your heart will gradually warm up.

Bernard thought that he would be happy to have a woman like her as his wife, but suddenly he came back to me.

"How are you, Bernard?"

"... Oh, please."

At last, he became aware of unidentified emotions.

I don't want to let go of Agnes, I want to protect myself, and I can't help but care, all because she has a special favor to her.

It was the first time he felt to the opposite sex and had never been before.

Bernard finally realized that he liked Agnès.

I noticed earlier that the moment I received the almond confectionery (Dragé) was a bottomless hole called Koi.

I looked back on my actions so far and dropped my shoulders with so much mercy.

Agnes worried about Bernard, approaching her side.

"Oh, are you okay? Would you like to call Jizil?"

"No, I'm fine."

Speaking to sit next to you, Agnes sits slowly. He lowered his eyebrows and looked up at Bernard with a sad expression.

Jizil had said. I want you to read the feeling of Agnes.

Bernard thinks again that it is not a partner who does not think of anything, such as the role of a fiance or a family.

So I thought they would have the same feelings.

Lay your hands on her white hand.

Agnes' hands were laboring in this life, and the hands were rough. I don't know what it looks like, but it was something I could understand if I touched it.

That fact also makes me feel like I can tighten my chest.

Agnes' eyes widened in a sudden event, and her cheeks became increasingly red.

Bernard was relieved because he did not show any dislike.

And I decided to talk about my resolve.

"If the case surrounding you is resolved, there is a story you want to hear."

"that is……!"

"I don't think it's a bad story."

Agnes nodded firmly with Bernard's words and replied.
