Chapter Seventy-One, The Lost Child and the Lost Writer

When I returned to Crossbell after finishing my work, everyone felt a lot happier.

Some people say that the best way to get rid of worries and worries is to keep yourself busy and stop thinking about those things, and there is a lot of truth in that. At the very least, through the work of the Support Division, I will not think about a series of darkness such as the Black Auction for the time being.

However, as they expected, no sooner had the crowd stepped off the guide bus, and before they had even entered the city, Lloyd's Anigema rang out.

At the same time, there was also a communication from Ainigema of Yu Tatsumi......

The two looked at each other, and at the same time showed an embarrassed expression, and each picked up.

――――Lloyd's side――――

"Hey, hello. This is the Special Missions Support Section, Lloyd Bannings. ”

"Ah, Officer Lloyd."

Ainigmari heard the voice of female vitality.

"Is my sister okay?"

Sure enough, with the level of harmony between Fran, the operator of the support department, and her sister Noelle, the first thing I said was to greet her.

Noelle grabbed Lloyd's wrist somewhat unceremoniously and brought Anigoma to his lips: "Fran! How many times have I said, don't call me sister when you're working! ”

"Hi Hi ~ Sister I know ~ "

"Hey......"

Noelle also gave up the idea of speaking of her, sighed, and returned Aigma to Lloyd.

"Ahaha. Fran, is there any urgent case? ”

Generally speaking, Fran, the operator of the Support Division, only meets when everyone submits the mission report through the guide terminal, and this communication is usually either an emergency meeting or an urgent mission.

If you think about it, when Crossbell was in such a need for manpower, even the upper echelons of the police department would not be able to gather the officers for a meeting, so there should be some urgent task.

"Ah, yes! It seems that a child was lost during the celebration! His parents are very anxious and are now filing with the police. ”

"Well, I see. I'll go right over. ”

――――Yutatsumi side――――

"Hey."

"Yo~ little brother, you're very active!"

It's obviously a man's masculine and calm voice, but he uses feminine language, and the tone is very sharp, which really sounds like a woman. Yu Tatsumi was very glad that Ainigema could only pass through the other party's voice, and if he could even pass through the picture, he would probably collapse for a few minutes.

"Michelle? You've heard that. ”

"Hmm. Arios can't praise you enough. ”

"Oh. So? Why did you contact me? ”

"Ah, such. Didn't you take on a mission in the Support Division before? It's the task of the easily excited writer. ”

Michelle said this, and You almost felt that his forehead was about to erupt with fire.

How dare you say it! Didn't you throw it at us because you were too troublesome!!

"Now, the writer has woken up! He has to see you. It's a lot of fun. I just wanted to send a message to your captain, but it turned out to be busy--oops, I'd like to install one for an older model of contact phone with the multi-party call function of Anigema. ”

…………

To put it simply, I can't find Lloyd's wronged ...... Captain, are you here to contact me?

You glanced at Lloyd, and saw that his expression became more and more solemn, presumably talking about some important case.

"Hey~ So, I've already notified you. You'd better think clearly, if you don't go now, when he is discharged from the hospital, he still has to go to your department building! ”

Michelle's laughing voice revealed a sense of schadenfreude and watching the fire from the other side.

"I say, you guerrillas are friends of the people! Is it really good to be so gloating? ”

"But the police aren't civilians, are they?"

One sentence made You Chensi unable to refute.

"I don't think that four resident guerrillas who are called Dow Cross Bell can be called people!"

Yes...... Sure enough, I'm still angry about this.

You couldn't help but show a bitter expression.

Because Crossbell guerrillas are understaffed all year round, Michelle has worked hard to recruit guerrillas...... As a result, he didn't find any of them. Estelle and Joshua also came because they wanted to. It can't be considered Michelle's recruitment.

As a result, one retired guerrilla was called four at once, and there was also a guerrilla from the Empire. I'm afraid that the guerrillas in the whole territory of the empire can't reach double digits, right? Although it sounds similar to Crossbell's Guerrilla Association, the Imperial Empire is more than ten times larger than Crossbell......

Moreover, these guerrillas are not yet in the nature of their work...... In other words, they didn't actually transfer at all, and they came to Crossbell for "vacation" rather than "transfer to work...... This filled Michelle with resentment.

However, Michelle only complained. This is very clear. If there is a real problem, he will definitely focus on work.

"Okay, I see, I see. Anyway, just go and hear what they have to say, right? ”

"Hmm. Just send someone who has nothing to do. You've got a lot of people over there, right? Just find someone to go to. ”

Michelle also knows the trouble of the writer deeply, and asks for care of the support section as if understanding.

You answered, cutting off the communication......

――――――――――

"Alas......"

With a long sigh, You's rare tired look made Lloyd, who had just finished the call, worry for a while.

"What's wrong?"

"It's fine. I just got a nasty assignment......"

The two of them talked about the communication they had received, and sure enough, when they heard the writer, they all showed painful expressions.

People who are too excited are very difficult to communicate.

But I can't help but go.

In the end, everyone came to the conclusion that the customary detachment.

However, this time it was divided into Yutatsumi alone and everyone else.

The rationale for classification is simple.

Yu's greatest advantage is speed, followed by sensitivity and analysis of conspiracy, and finally his overall quality as a guerrilla. However, these three points are of little use in finding people.

If it's like before, looking for humans in the place where the monsters gather, then it's okay, after all, people and monsters can be separated at a glance, and in order to ensure the safety of the target as much as possible, speed is also important.

But the lost child is not good, it is necessary to search carefully in the city of Crossbell, since this kind of work does not require the quality of a guerrilla to deal with a conspiracy, and if it is really a kidnapping, then Lloyd is more suitable to deal with this kind of work than Yutatsumi. Of course, speed is necessary, but Yu needs to look for it carefully, so his speed advantage will not be brought into play.

With this in mind, Yu Tatsumi took the initiative to ask to go to St. Ullsla's Medical University to check on the troublesome Mr. Writer.

Of course, Yu hates that guy super.

However, if you go, maybe you can take a side note and investigate the blue medicine that Rui is taking.

If you use the excuse that you are held up by the writer's chatter, you can naturally stay at a medical university for a long time.

Although you don't feel that the enemy will show flaws, but what if?

I don't know when it started, and the tour also began to hope with both "if" and "what if".

"Understood. Finding a lost child is up to our group of people to solve. ”

Lloyd nodded and repeated.

"And it's my job to go to the hospital quickly, ask the writer what is wrong with him, and listen to him complain."
