The Plantagenet and Shure didn't get far - because an unexpected person came to the door.

In the school building, at the door of the Golden Finch's class, Primo greeted them: "I'm sorry to disturb you or something all of a sudden - I hope you don't leave as soon as you see me." ”

The goldfinch turned around and walked away.

“......”

Isn't this a clear self-inflicted finding something for yourself?

【②】

"I really need to apologize to you for something like this. ”

The building has offices that belong to the Student Council - half of the student affairs of Anlimont College are handled by the student council of each department, and Primo, the fourth year of the Theory Department, is the president of the Student Council of the Theory Department, in other words, the head.

In the office, thick columns stand in all four directions of the room, and lifelike birds are carved on the capitals, which want to fly out of the faint light of the morning mist that shines through the narrow window.

In the small living room-style layout, the walls are painted in sea blue, and Primo himself pours the two of them flower tea, placing it in front of the sofa where they are sitting, and there is a fragrant mist wafting slowly.

Ka.

Goldfinch picked up the cup with a pale hand, feeling the mist stain his eyelashes, and his vision blurred a little, and in this blur, Primo was slowly sitting down in the opposite position.

"The exhibition competition is a routine arrangement every year, and for the selection of alchemy machinery, the latest machinery is generally selected, if you want to know more detailed problems, I will give you a plan. Primo coughed lightly and said in a calm tone, "The key question is how the accident happened. ”

"Nonsense. The words of the Golden Finch were unwavering.

Primo smiled, not displeased by her seemingly bad attitude: "To put it simply, the control device of the alchemy machine was stolen, and this person also modified the internal operation spell - according to the results of Professor Herris's investigation. ”

It sounds miserable, the workshop that the student union is responsible for has already been set up, and it can be said that everything is ready and only the east wind is owed, and as a result-

Not to mention that the control device was stolen, this thing was also done.

"Oh, that's why you didn't answer my workshop question. The goldfinch disagreed, "Death is a matter of face." ”

Primo smiled.

Who knows if it's a smile on his face, and his mother sells a batch in his heart......

"It didn't work. The goldfinch made another stab.

“......”

"Theft has been rampant lately?" Shure asked suddenly.

"Corrie and I have mentioned this – and with this incident, we can already be sure that the theft during this period was not accidental, and that it was most likely a premeditated series of events. Primo replied, smiling a little more naturally.

"That'...... Does the senior know that thieves are more inclined to steal or hurt others?" Shul slowly raised his head, looking at Primo's eyes clear and dazzling.

Primo's movements paused, hesitated for a moment, and slowly shook his head, as if he couldn't get an answer: "We don't have any other clues, after all, there are so many people in the academy, but the name written on it is Teresa-san - even so, it is still a little difficult to get a list of possible murderers from it." ”

Translation: There are too many people who are unhappy with your Teresa, and the range is too large to really be found.

Hearing this question, the goldfinch did not speak, observing something through the calm surface of the flower tea.

"Because the metal plate that recorded the manipulation spell was so badly damaged - perhaps, Teresa-san's name wasn't intentionally engraved on it, and we thought it might have been a temporary spell. Primo seemed to be comforting Shull.

He had heard about the boy, though he didn't quite understand why a student like him would like the Goldfinch—it was quite inappropriate to think about it.

But he could feel Shure's maintenance of the Golden Finch, so much so that he asked with some eagerness, "So, are you going to focus on catching the thief?"

Shuer's appearance is actually a bit surprising.

Especially now that I heard that the student council didn't seem to worry about the problems with the goldfinch in the first place, although it sounded reasonable.

"But——!" said Schule to his feet, anxiously, "no one can be sure that Teresa will be attacked again, if that person did it on purpose?!"

The golden finch was slightly stunned, and finally raised his head from the flower tea: "It's okay." ”

"No, Teresa is a girl—" Shul made a rare tough gesture.

Primo's smile stiffened again.

Well...... First, he didn't expect that the Golden Bird didn't care much about it, and secondly, he ...... Shure could say something like that...... The goldfinch is a girl, and the "girl" in the sense of a normal girl seems to be true love.

"Don't worry...... I'll figure it out. "Primo lifts his forehead.

"Okay!" Shul agreed.

I thought he wasn't so easy to convince...... Why does it seem so surprisingly easy to talk now?

Primo breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about the girl who brought the manipulation device to the training ground?" Goldfinch's eyes caught Primo's expression, and after a moment of silence, he reached out to take Shure's hand and said, but then seemed to remember something, and his expression was a little subtle, "Forget the spell." ”

Primo was a little surprised: "You guessed?"

Why do you still have a "you should be a fool" in your expression?

Goldfinch sneered: "It seems that you are the same as a fool who writes news, so forget it - lose money, since you student council think that you should be responsible." ”

"Teresa-san, I think ......"

"Lose money. ”

"We always felt ......"

"Lose money. ”

“......”

"Lose money. ”

【④】

They parted unhappily, or the goldfinch was not in the mood to talk about it.

"Teresa. Leaving the office, Shul followed the Plantage down the hallway, his ears twitching, "I'll help you ......"

"Help me with what?" said the goldfinch unexpectedly quickly.

But it's hard to answer.

After saying that, the golden finch withdrew some sharp eyes, turned around and continued to walk forward.

The student council's statement concealed something from Goldfinch and Shuer, not because they wanted to harm them, but perhaps because they were junior students, and it was not beneficial for them to know these things.

But for the goldfinch, this means "meaningless".

"Find the person who modified the manipulating spell. Shul said immediately.

"Don't get involved in this. The Golden Bird said, realizing that his attitude was a little tough, which made Xiu'er stunned when he heard this, so he said helplessly, "The student council will pay attention to me, don't you agree." ”

"Seniors are very busy, I don't think they have this time. Shure said.

Primo was there and estimated that a mouthful of old blood would spurt out.

“...... How could you guess that he was just perfunctory to you. ”
