"Tell me, then, what exactly am I seeing?"

"How do I know what you see?"

"I don't care! Then you'll have to help me find my father's killer!" ”

Sato pushed everything to me like a coquette.

"Huh?! I said, this eldest lady, is your logical thinking a little too jumpy? ”

I don't want to be involved in troublesome events, and I've decided that I want to live a happy and peaceful life in another world.

"If you don't promise me, I'll let the soldiers arrest you. And you've just ...... Touched, touched...... It's mine... That ......"

"Miss, are you trying to threaten me?"

"I'll give you a reward......

"I don't care about the reward or something."

Hmph, the reward you mortals have given me doesn't impress me, I'd rather help Yukana and Bruce.

"Really...... I thought my kiss would make you happy......"

Although the blue double ponytail short-haired girl in front of me is very similar to the beautiful girl I expected from another world, I ———

"Stupid! Do you think I was a child? Who would risk their life for a kiss? ”

"Huh?!"

Sato was dumbfounded.

"After all, do you think your kisses are worth a lot? Are you getting a little carried away? Do you think everyone is the kind of warrior who will fight for their life for a kiss? Really, do you think you're really, really attractive? ”

"You, you, you ......"

Sato's body trembled violently.

"Captain, good ......"

"Tell me all the details."

Originally, I was going to refuse with righteousness and solemnity, until I saw a line on her ID card——— about to inherit the Sato family's 100 billion family property.

"Captain! Do you want to die again? I ...... because of a kiss."

"No, I didn't help her because of a kiss. I just want to help my daughter, who has lost her father, so that justice can be done. ”

I pressed my finger to Hinako's mouth and said very handsomely.

"Really...... Will you help me? ”

"Of course, Miss Sato. Please tell me more about it. ”

"Captain, what the hell are you up to? If it was really for a kiss...... I promise you won't see the sun tomorrow. ”

Hey, you seem to have said something terrible!

"Can't you trust me a little bit?"

"Can't!"

"Ahem, it's good to be trusted."

I pretended not to hear Hinako's answer.

"Well, Miss Sato, it's not convenient to talk here, can we go to a slightly safer place?"

"Why don't you go to my house? I'm sure you won't dare to stay at that inn tonight. ”

It's a great proposition, and I'm very impressed, but ———

"I still have several friends, I can't leave them alone......"

"It doesn't matter, it's okay to have as many people as you want."

……

So we all went to Sato's house.

Should it be said that it is worthy of the earl's home? I can't find any words to describe it at all, because my vocabulary is absolutely insulting to it.

"Welcome back, Miss Sato."

As soon as I entered the door, I was greeted by a brigade of maids divided into two rows.

"These are my guests, immediately tidy up a few spare rooms for them."

"Yes, Miss."

The maids were very efficient and it only took a few minutes to tidy up the room.

"Learn a little, this is what the eldest lady should have."

I whispered to Vivien beside me.

"You're very long-winded."

She also seemed to agree with what I said and did not contradict me.

"Suzuki, it's time to tell us why we're here, right?"

It happened suddenly, and I brought them over without explaining to them.

"Everyone, let me explain it to you. I am Shizuku Sato, the daughter of Earl Sato Li, and my father was brutally killed a few days ago because he was a party member who supported His Royal Highness the Second Prince. Today, Duke Howell and Earl Rist, another supporter of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, have also been killed, and they are at the inn where you have just stayed. ”

"Hah...... I have a general understanding of the matter, but what does this have to do with us? ”

"Your captain, Miss Suzuki, has just made an agreement with me that she will help me catch the murderer, and I will give her a kiss."

Sato turned his face away a little shyly.

"Huh?! Suzuki, are you looking for death? ”

I knew it...... Hoshino will definitely do it to me when he hears this...... Please, just a little lighter.

"Calm down, calm down, Hoshino! That's not why I helped her, listen to me! ”

"Explanations are useless! And I won't trust you anymore! ”

"Sister Suzuki is starting to mess with flowers again......"

"Miss Suzuki...... What a sinner......"

"Please don't look at me with that kind of regret, I really didn't promise her because of this reward, I swear!"

When I was about to be strangled by Hoshino to the point of being unconscious, Hinako stepped in to stop me.

This guy is deliberately trying to make me suffer, right?

I was half-on my knees, gulping in for air.

"Miss Suzuki's teammates are really amazing......"

"Miss Sato, can you tell me in detail about what you saw today?"

"Today I received information that the Duke of Howell and the Earl of Rister would appear at the inn, and I secretly followed them. Originally, I didn't ......."

"Wait, wait! Why are you stalking these two people? Is there any particular reason? ”

"Duke Howell is another big supporter of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and if the murderer's target is His Royal Highness the Second Prince's henchmen, he will definitely be found."

"I see...... It's much easier to identify the murderer's target......"

It seems that I really am Conan's brother...... I'm going to open a detective agency in the future.

"Can I continue?"

"No problem."

"I secretly followed them into the mixed bath ......"

"Wait, wait! Mixed bathing? So, the captain is also taking a mixed bath, right? ”

"That's right. Any questions? ”

"That's a big problem! Isn't the mixed bath a heavenly existence for the captain? ”

"What are you talking about...... The women's bath is ......"

Oops, this guy can't be fooling me, is he?

And so it was...... I didn't expect the captain to be a ......."

"Hey, come on, that's not the point, is it?"

From the perspective of ordinary people, I should be the so-called Lily Girl, but I know the reason myself.

"That's the point! Why would the captain who likes women's baths go for mixed baths? ”

"Truth be told, I was also investigating those two people at the time."
