Perspective – Grey

Should I say that I am not close to people, or should I say that I am not emotional.

In short, things were out of our grasp from the start.

"To put it simply, this dead maid is the Golden Hime. That's right, the real Golden Ji has long since died. As for the dismemberment, it's probably to extract data.,Anyway, in your values, this kind of thing is natural.,So I won't say anything more.,Go straight to the next stage - anyway, for some reason Jin Ji died before the party.,But because you have to show Jin Ji at the party.,So you need a "stand-in".,That is, this maid.。 As for the method, it is the natural "plastic surgery", which can be easily handled by entrusting the Grand magician over there who can easily discard even the main body. The ashes of the linden tree were probably left over from there, but they are probably very precious materials. And also...... By the way, this maid was killed by Mai O. The reason is probably "beauty", eight or nine are not far from ten. Although the brain circuit of a magician cannot be understood, it is still easy to guess as long as you talk about the root cause. The imposition of the charges on Rhaenys was the idea of Silver and another maid in order to shield Maio. The relationship is so good, the bonds deposited over the years can even tolerate the crime of murder - although it is not good, it is absolutely false to say that it is not envious. ”

The boy said.

We made our way to the foyer of the Tower of the Moon.

As soon as we entered, the monarch Barujereta - Inolet sat down on a bench and held up a glass with whiskey to us. Looks like she's having a drink. Although she didn't know if Master's negotiation would be successful, she didn't care if either side failed, and she just waited in this Moon Tower.

Elegant chandeliers cast a hazy light on the magicians.

People associated with the event come together.

Enolai and Mick Gulagille.

Atram Gary Asta.

Silver Hime.

Regina.

Maio and Islo.

Bai Longqing.

Also, Master, Rhaenys, and I, and the belated boy, there were twelve in all. Flatt and Sfen are now sent by the Master to run errands and are not present.

“…… Anyway, let's get Lenies's mercury maid back first. ”

There is no intact place in his body, and it is enough to be a miracle to even be able to stand here, the young man said to Bai Longqing very naturally.

“…… All right. ”

Casting a strange look at the young man, Bai Longqing nodded reluctantly and snapped his fingers.

It was like a signal, and the seal on the box brought by the squire was cut off with a dagger with a magic circle. Then, the mercury that slipped out of it turned into the shape of a maid.

"Trim."

I noticed that Rhaenys had a relieved expression. For her, it's a partner who hasn't been separated in years.

It's like—it's like me and Yard.

"However, if you do anything suspicious, we'll take her back right away."

"Yes. Keep an eye on you. Concentration is almost all back, right? ”

Rhaenys replied as she examined every nook and cranny of Tremmaou's body.

"—and that's the end of the preparation."

Atram sat in his chair and folded his arms leisurely.

In this place where interests and feelings are intricate, he is both a spectator and a predator, and there is nothing to lose, his smile shows such calmness.

"No, wait two more."

As he spoke, Master looked towards the entrance.

With the sound of noisy footsteps, the door to the foyer was opened.

"Arrived!"

Excuse me. ”

"—Flat, Sfen."

I couldn't help but hold my breath when I saw something in the arms of the curly-haired teenager in the duo.

Carefully held in his arms was the body of Karina, the maid wrapped in a blanket.

“…… Sister ......"

Regina's voice of pain rang out in the foyer.

Sfen gently placed the body on the floor, and then the master crouched down. However, the teenager stopped him before that.

"No need."

“…… What did you say? ”

"I said I didn't need to look at it - [the eardrum has been peeled off]."

As he spoke, the boy took a step forward.

Just that makes it feel like he's at the center of it all.

That's right, like that red—

"Anyway, let's cut it short. Although I don't know what kind of deal you made or what kind of agreement you made - I don't know how much preparation they made for Vlat. But I still want my body to be effectively treated as soon as possible. After all, if I continue like this, I'm going to sleep here forever. ”

Talking about willful, but irrefutable reasons, the boy told all the true thoughts of the matter.

The death of Golden Hime, as well as the true identity of Golden Ji that night, and even the truth about the death of the maid Karina.

That's right, only the truth.

The cause of the process is almost passed, and it is simply to show the results to the public.

Silent.

It was as if by magic had been cast - all the sounds had suddenly disappeared from the world in silence.

Even the master looked up at the ceiling with a bitter expression.

"Oh, I've said a lot of terrible things."

There was only one person, Aozaki Orange smiling happily.

"If nothing else, I had plastic surgery for Jin Jinji? Gloriously, but unfortunately I don't have any such memories at all. It's true that I don't have a good memory, but now I have to check if it's Alzheimer's. ”

"Then you can come and take a look, provided that if it's true, you will heal me."

"Then you're welcome."

Orange crouched down and began to examine the contours of the corpse's cheeks and the inside of its ears.

“…… That's right. Although it is only the bare minimum, there are indeed traces of the spell. In the case of magic plastic surgery, the surgical marks caused by the procedure are only indirect. If you have a magic trick for healing, you don't even need stitches. At least not in everyday life. ”

After some time, she made a judgment.

"Ah, I'm sorry. This was indeed done by me. ”

Hearing her speak, everyone was in an uproar.

Orange's face grew gloomy, she said.

"But why would I forget something so important?"

"Let our second murderer answer this question."

The boy pointed at Mai O, but he was speechless. As early as the moment he was pointed out as the murderer, he had been sitting on the ground, and his face was pale and he stayed there.

But Orange, who had already understood what the boy meant, looked up with interest.

"Hmm. That means I drank the [memory hindering] medicine without noticing? ”

"Nope. I don't think you would be so reckless. However, if you drink this medicine if it is included in the terms of the order, you may be able to accept it. ”

"I see. If commissioning is interesting enough, it does. ”

The female magician replied in the affirmative.

Interesting enough.

If I can arouse the interest of the clock tower's true highest crown (Grand).

"By the way, the leaves of the Bodhi tree I just mentioned, if I'm not mistaken, nine times out of ten, they are [Bodhi leaves stained with dragon blood]. It's the Bodhi leaves that stuck to the back of the great hero [Siegfried] when he bathed in the dragon's blood—but as you can see, it has turned into a pinch of dust. ”

The nature of the silence was very different from what it had just been.

To use a metaphor, it is like a barbaric act of smashing precious treasures. It is by no means a person who does not know its value - rather, it is also a special authority among experts, who personally took the lead in burning objects that can be called world treasures to ashes.

"Hah!"

Orange burst out laughing.

As if Master had just told a funny joke, the woman let out a happy laugh and even covered her stomach.

"Haha, hahaha! Hahahahahahaha! It turned out to be [Cinderella (Cinderella)]! I see, so it all makes sense. Whether it's the fact that I accepted the commission or the reason why I didn't hesitate to drink the drug! ”

Atram glared at the orange with an almost suffocating expression.

It's not just him.

With a bang, the sound of hard objects colliding echoed through the room.

It was the sound of the cane falling from Bai Longqing's hand, who was staring blankly and wide-eyed.

"How, how can it be...... Miss Aosaki. Even you shouldn't ......."

If Atram had a suffocating expression, his face should have been pleading. Perhaps this is the expression of a person who sees the art he has dedicated his life shattered in front of his eyes.

"No, that's what I do."

Orange said calmly.

"Yes. Do you use the Bodhi leaves that have received the dragon's blood to perform Cinderella's technique? It's amazing. Siegfried's story is not so much about a human being gaining an immortal body as it is about a human being being reborn as an immortal hero, and this feeling is stronger. Even more so with Cinderella. Makeup and dressing up are undoubtedly magic. Then in the stage of plastic surgery, the linden leaf, which symbolizes rebirth as a hero, is simply the perfect mantra. I wanted to cut open my head and see why I couldn't remember. ”

At this, it seemed that a smile came up again, and she covered her mouth and shook her shoulders.

"For ...... What ......"

Bai Longqing swallowed hard and looked at the orange.

"Why! Miss Aosaki. You appointed this thing as a reward, so I specially prepared it. If you're going to burn it, then why take my commission! Isn't that too much! ”

"Oh, that's what I asked for. Thank you for preparing such a valuable item. ”

In the face of this real accusation, Orange just shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

"I don't remember, but I can probably guess what I was thinking [at the time]. Accepted an interesting commission. However, if you rely on the funds and materials prepared by the employer, the standard will obviously decrease, so you will use your own remuneration to achieve satisfactory results. You see, isn't that reasonable? ”

"Bastard- I didn't say I needed you to make that kind of result! It's always been said that as long as you survive that night, it's enough......! ”

"I'm sorry, please die. That's the kind of personality I have. ”

Aozaki Orange apologized to Bai Longqing with a heartfelt smile like a flower.

“……”

Except for the wry-smiling Monarch Baruyereta, almost everyone was speechless.

As a magician, there was nothing wrong with her words.

There can be no magician who denies the will to go deeper into the abyss of magic. But how many people can commit such barbaric acts just because they are not wrong? In the eyes of at least the few magicians in this room, she was undoubtedly an incomprehensible monster.

Then, another teenager who was not shocked and knew almost nothing about the affairs of the magician (on this side) continued.

"Another point to mention is the case of the maid who was killed. It's the same anyway - the maid doesn't have to die at all. ”

With that, he walked over to Flat, and loved you as if nothing had happened, and took out a suit of clothes and a bag from him as if nothing had happened.

It was Golden Hime's clothes and a travel bag.

Seeing these two things, I seem to understand a little. After the magic was lifted, Karina changed her clothes at the fountain. Also, the things prepared to escape from Bailongqing were also hidden nearby.

"In several legends about Siegfried, the place where he bathed in dragon blood and ushered in death was by the spring. I guess there's something magical about it...... But these things, especially travel bags, are covered in your fingerprints - although there are reasons why others are too late to get there, but you are really stupid as a murderer. ”

"Ah...... Ahhhh......h

Mai O's mouth was closed and he was speechless.

But the boy said that he didn't have time to mess around with him.

"Don't pretend to be pathetic. If it's a man, let me know my mistakes. ”

"Recognize ...... Wrong......? ”

The pharmacist did not run away this time.

He was still sitting on the ground, but suddenly smiled. He stopped trembling, his lips cracked like crescent moons, and he smiled silently.

“…… I ......"

Mai Ao finally sorted out the language.

"What's wrong with me ...... doing this?"
