The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

"I can be convinced if you think that the mansion won't break or the blood won't pop out because you don't want to tarnish the stage over and over again. At the end of last time, this mansion was a mess, but I'm sure it was because we were angry at the producer for imitating the exact opposite of his intentions."

If the producer cares about the director, he could have set it up for too busy an actor.

"Do you think Mr. Reiner, who appeared in place of Mr. Benno, was also caught from somewhere?

"I guess so. That guy, I've seen him somewhere, so he might be a visitor to the inn."

"I see…………………."

Make a difficult face for Ed to think about.

"One thing bothers me.... Dorte said Benno was thirty before, but it looked too forty... I heard Dorte say he was in his sixties too. What's the difference between what you see and what you say?

Upon hearing that remark, Ruth turned the page of the book. Before I got there, there was a conversation between the maid and the butler.

"Later in the story, there's a part of a maid in her sixties who describes a butler as' even though she's only half my life '. I guess the' butler 'in this story is thirty. I think Mr. Reiner is just a good year, but I don't think Benno, who looked like forty, or Dorte, who doesn't look like he's in his sixties, is offering' himself '. You're talking about the role, aren't you?

"I can't believe you're not the right age for appearance and role...... aren't you in the wrong service?

"Sure."

Ruth also grinned bitterly at Ed, who looked angry.

I don't understand the intentions of the producer, but I don't think there would have been any more confusion if he had matched his age as a role with his apparent age.

It's such a confusing situation, but it would be less confusing to think flexibly that there are conditions for the person who grabs them, and they may be the only ones who could have chosen them.

"But there's an example of Mr. Benno, and it shouldn't have to be all scripted. I think you can think of the script as just a" Michishi servant “. I guess they're aiming to work unconsciously."

"Working on the munchkins?

"Mmm. In front of Ed, when an old woman collapses, she says, 'Does it hurt somewhere, are you feeling sick?' You think about a lot of different causes, don't you? But before she fell, I was listening to 'The Old Man Will Have Bad Legs Soon These Days' and I was like, 'Could he have bad legs?' Don't you think?

"…………………… I see. Is that how it feels?"

Thanks to smart Ed, Ruth's bad example seems to have made it through enough. It's just that Ruth wasn't a psychiatrist in his previous life either, so it's unclear if it's the right definition.

"Speaking of which, the first time Ruth was on his way to the cooking room, he was whining, 'I wonder if you're making a cake'. Then I wondered why it smelled sweet and immediately associated the cake... but I was reading the script first."

"Oh. I think that's what this is all about"

The producer will be trying to make sure everyone in the mansion has eyes on the script.

As can be seen from Ed's story that the last birthday party was immediately changed, it is likely that they, with their roles, will return a reaction that is unconscious and in line with the story of "A Happy Afternoon". Conversely, based on that, there is also the advantage that you can assume that there is no unexpected response, even if it is unlikely to follow the story.

In other words, what the Ruths need to do is not look for an exit to escape this world. It's about moving forward with this story as scripted. Otherwise in this world, we will repeat the same time all the time.

He's the one who originally dominates consciousness. Ruth, who was powerless, was wrong to win with his skill.

Ruth sighs with a strange face when the story is over.

"What about Ed, my hypothesis? Am I wrong? Or would Ed have another idea, too?

Ed makes a difficult face at Ruth's inquiry.

"I'm also curious about the word 'last chance' that I remember. Maybe this is really the last time. That's why I don't want to make decisions based on my own assumptions. If you fail..."

"- To be honest, I can't believe that the intention of the producer who locked us into this world was' to make us do a play like the script we made '. I don't know what that means."

"... well, let's think of another way. Ed..."

"-But. Even if you don't believe me emotionally, I think Ruth's established hypothesis is most in line with how this world works from a rational point of view. Collected people, lost memories and given new positions, unconsciously guided words and deeds, time to repeat, strange mansions, strange books, disappeared people - all in all, I don't feel that Ruth's hypothesis is the closest thing to the answer."

Ed sighed and then looked back at Ruth. I was not lost in that look.

"There are many things I don't understand in the sense of what the producer thinks, but I feel refreshed at last. I see much more hope than the last operation. Thank you, Ruth. Let's do it on this line. I have no objection."

Admitted by Ed, Ruth lowered his chest.

Ruth is now less knowledgeable about this world. Because if you can't convince Ed that you know everything, you can't be right.

"No, Ed. I couldn't help it this time. It's true that I can't keep my memories, but even if I did, I must have thought too much of a mess and it was hard to get to this conclusion."

It was because Ed remembered everything and gave Ruth the aggregated information that I could think of a tie without turning my head extraneously.

People get lost if there is too much judgment material, though they may wish. I fail to notice the simple things. I realized that very well. Nor could Ruth reach an answer without Ed.

"Well, shall we go and move the story, Ed"

"Oh, will you be okay the rest of the time?

It's been awhile since this one started. I also know Ed's anxiety.

Ruth took one of the 'scripts' he put on the table.

"It's okay, we can make it now. It shouldn't be too late, as the two protagonists of the script have a portrait of them talking to the people of this mansion once they come to the guest room and have a cup of tea"

Fortunately, Ed successfully led Ruth into the mansion. Not a bad relationship with Tiana either. I also have information from Dorte on Tiana's location. It may have been a long conversation in the room, but if you've got the script, you're not lost in the process. We should make it in time if we go on a little rush.

Ed jumped off the couch and equally got the 'script'.

"Okay, let's hurry. Let's start with a conversation in the library with one daughter, Tiana."

"Oh, let's go. If we, the protagonists, make a good move on the story and finish the play, we can all get out of this world. Go for it."

"Yes!"

With the goal of getting everyone out of the stage of this play, Ruth and the others rushed down the hallway.

When they got to the library, Ruth and the others discovered Tiana was reading the book. She looked surprised when she saw the two of them, but she immediately accepted and called me to come nearby. Thanks to Ed for the soft response when we first met.

Like Ed said, the 'script' was right next to her, but Tiana is likely not able to read it, so I don't know what will happen.

(But let's move on as scripted)

When you think about Benno, who is gone, there are probably many ways to finish the role, but I'm not willing to take a dangerous one at what might be the last time. Ruth and the others were going to “play” as scripted, even in words they would not have said.

If Tiana doesn't speak the script, then Ruth and the others, who know the script, will just guide her well.

"Tiana likes to read books. I like you, too."

"Really? What do you like?

"'Lee and Monit's Adventures' is a good idea."

"I like that, too, Tiana!

Previously on Ruth, according to Ed, he kept calling her 'Lady Tiana'. But the script 'woman' was immediately starting to call her 'Tiana'. This alone considerably reduces the distance.

(You might have said 'Tiana' or something in your mind, but given my personality, you wouldn't be able to...)

The only daughter of a troublesome mansion. Ruth can't easily call someone like that 'Tiana' without her permission. I'm sure it's because of the common sense of previous life in my memory.

"Tiana. Besides, I like the fact that Lee gives you a book for Monitor as a gift. Even though they're all flowers, Lee is the only one who likes Mornit the most!

"I like it there too"

Having expressed empathy with Nico and his childish expression, Ed plays a solid “brother” role.

In his story, he plays a role in representing the feelings of selfless Tiana in the drawn-in proposal.

"I like that part, too. Isn't that good? Tiana, did you get what you wanted most for your birthday?

When Ruth said so, Tiana looked lonely with Shun.

"I didn't get it... Tiana, I like your book. But you're a stuffed animal… I'm sure it's not what Tiana wants today……!

Tiana had a slightly angry look on her face, but Ruth was impressed with the way the story was carried. I'm sure this is how the lead learns that 'Today is Tiana's Birthday'.

"That, today? Could it be your birthday, Tiana?

"Yeah……………."

"Congratulations, Tiana. Well, it was today. Then I wonder what your father will give you as a gift."

"Yeah. But everyone hasn't, something. Happy birthday to you. Tiana's Tajiubi party, I wonder if I messed up... Maybe I don't have a gift or a cake..."

Tiana is going to cry even after a change from her earlier anger. The young expression goes hand in hand, and I can understand that it is a very serious problem for her.

Look at this look on your face, there won't be anyone else who won't move. You already want to do something for her.

(So, Ed said I went to Mr. Dickhout's with him to make a direct call...)

I still think that's quicker now, but we need to act a little more calm to make the story work. There's no way that a normal village daughter would have an idea of "what's open. I need immediate response and flexible thinking."

"Okay. Tiana, I'll sneak up on the butler's liner and ask her what's going on with the presents and the cake."

"Really?"

"I'll tell everyone that Tiana wants, too!

"So just wait here for a minute."

"Yeah! Hey, Ed, thanks!

When we finished the conversation, we put Tiana down and Ruth and the others left the library.

"... you think it's going well?

"I think things are going pretty well. If we knew the adventure of Lee and Monitor, it would be so easy."

Nodding as Ed admired the script.

"The Adventures of Lee and Monit," which Ruth and Ed just don't know and which is also written in the script, may actually be a fairly famous book like any kid knows.

"Thanks to Ruth for skipping the extra conversation and moving on, it's unfolding fast. Hurry up and get to the deacon's liner on Screenplay Street. At this point, we have a slightly lost portrait, but if we go straight to the cooking area, we'll be able to encounter where he's making tea for his husband."

"All right, let's go."

Ruth and the others headed to the cooking area early.

Entering the cooking area behind the mansion, warm heat was transmitted. They were just boiling water. On the fire side, the intended butler/liner and cook Chester were talking about something.

"… then proceed in the order requested now"

"Okay. Who are you people?

"Oh, Mr. Ruth, Ed."

When Chester noticed Ruth and the others and raised his voice, the liner reacted first to give us a brief introduction.

While Ruth thinks, 'You're really forgetting me, Mr. Chester,' he pretends to meet him for the first time and mixes it up with his story with Reiner. I'm not particularly surprised because I've already heard from Ed that Chester plays the cook without memory, and he shouldn't react like that to move the story forward.

When Ruth, who introduced herself, told Reiner she wanted to ask him something, Chester said she was going away to prepare dinner.

"So, what do you want to ask?

"Actually, Tiana told me that today is her birthday..."

"Tiana, from the lady?... Speaking of which, I didn't tell you two."

Liner had a slightly troubled look on his face. Except for the last time Ed talked about it, the two of us never knew Tiana's birthday, so either she was busy and forgotten, or she wanted us to be surprised and shut up.

"Tiana was anxious that everyone would celebrate her birthday!

"Tiana, the lady?

"Yes. I was about to miss you for not having any gifts or cakes...... of course you're going to celebrate, aren't you?

"Yes, that's... just the intention of that husband..."

Reiner told me that Dickhout was going to surprise Tiana by keeping her birthday party a secret while clouding her words.

"Surprise, is it...... but is that fun for Tiana?

"Tiana, I was about to cry."

When Ed was told straight about Tiana's situation, the liner was openly upset.

"…… yes, right?"

"Is Mr. Reiner in favor of this way of celebrating?

"............ Honestly, I think it's too early for the spirit of a birthday party that would surprise the lady"

"Deacon" seriously questioned the way the lady celebrated her birthday, so I knew these answers would come.

This is the branch.

Ruth laughs small and proceeds as she was in the script.

"Is Mr. Dickhout the kind of person who gets angry when Mr. Reiner gives his opinion? It didn't look that way..."

In fact, Dickhout is probably a warmer husband himself. Otherwise I'm not supposed to imitate letting Ruth and Ed in the house I've been asking you about late.

"No, my husband is the one who takes my opinion. …… but even about the lady…………"

As scripted, Deacon/Reiner seemed unsure if he could express his opinion on the feelings of a husband who thinks of one daughter.

"I know how you feel. Mr. Dickhout is mistaken for Tiana to be happy at a party like that, isn't he?

"……… Yes"

"Mr. Reiner knows Tiana won't be pleased."

"Well, my husband never moves by assumption...... just when it comes to Miss Tiana"

"I know. Mr. Dickhout just thinks of Tiana. But that's not the right way. Mr. Reiner knows that. Then Mr. Reiner is the only one who can tell you about it."

The “woman”, the village daughter, is strong. In a pure spirit, Zubazuba trumps the troublesome consideration with his brother. If it's Ruth, it's a method of warfare that you can't do without consciously doing it.

It is certain that it is the wind of this mansion.

"... Is it Mr. Reiner's job to just nod at what he says?

Liner's face changed when he heard Ruth.
