10. Far Trek

Ahh

Although he said that he saw the princess unilaterally only one side, but taking this incident as an opportunity and as evidence, it is enough to roughly guess who this "princess" is.

This is not really solving the case, you only need to guess, and guess it correctly once, it is enough.

If you think about it carefully, there is really such a person by your side, and when you see the real princess, she is not there. And when he saw her, the real princess had never appeared in front of his eyes.

But......

"Looks like you've already thought of something. ”

Claire pours down the pipe she was holding, but it doesn't seem to be the actual butt floating out of it.

"Now that the suspicion has been cleared this time, whatever happens after that can only be judged by you. After all, my job is only to expose the truth, not the truth. ”

That's right, it's enough for you to discover the truth of the matter this time.

Since this princess has gone to such great lengths to be able to integrate into her side like an ordinary person, and has staged a "contract adjustment plan" with the workers on the ship, she must not want to let herself discover the truth.

I'm afraid, she is also reluctant to tell this truth.

So in this case, why did she tell the truth and make her future trips full of depression?

That's good, you don't need to be surprised by this sudden discovery, after all, it's not something to be taken advantage of.

"Lilith-chan, are you still thinking about it?" Seeing Lilith's frown, Mammon smiled, "For the sake of you taking care of me for so long, I can tell you what you want to know?"

"No, and you don't have to say it. ”

Lilith smiled slightly, and turned to the people who didn't know because they didn't have that contact with the princess, "I don't know who the princess is, it's too troublesome, don't think about it." ”

......

"Anyway, we know the princess is right next to us, right?"

After a brief moment of silence, all the workers in the cabin saluted Lilith.

"Two detectives. ”

Although Claire and Watson were the ones who disrupted the "princess" plan this time, Jessica didn't look at each other coldly because of this, "Thank you two for your mercy this time, it's not too early, I'm going to prepare some supper for everyone, please have a good rest after you're done, Elena." ”

"Understood. ”

Elena seemed to be very unimpressed with the two detectives, and rolled her eyes at Claire, "Poor breasts." ”

"What did you say!!"

"Let's go. ”

Lilith took Anne's hand, who was still stunned, "Sister Anne?"

"Ahem, let's talk about it again. My name is Claire H. Sherlock Holmes. The girl with the double ponytail in front of her was wearing an oversized canvas trench coat that covered the short shirt and skirt inside, and a round hat on her head. Although this is too old-fashioned for her, it gives her a sense of maturity.

Although Lilith also felt an inexplicable threat.

Always feel like as soon as this guy appears, all the limelight is stolen from her?

"He's my assistant, Rael Watson. "We didn't inadvertently want to board the ship this time, but because I sensed that there was going to be a crime going on, we purposefully lurked on the ship." It's just that I didn't expect it to be just a beautiful misunderstanding, I'm really sorry. ”

"You're not right, Claire. Watson frowned, "You should say, in fact, wherever you go, there will be trouble." ”

"Don't say I'm like a god of death!"

"And what are you going to do after that?"

Lilith asked, "Now that the ship is heading for that mysterious continent in the east, there is no place to stop on the way, and you can't go back, right?"

"You don't have to worry about that. Claire smiled and pulled out a scroll, "There are dozens of such teleportation arrays in my house, and I can definitely go back." Well, after all, it's something we use to save our lives. ”

Don't act like you're a thief.

Lilith, who had planned to travel, naturally couldn't follow these two detectives who didn't look like detectives at all because of this trivial matter. So after a little late-night snack, Claire and Watson stood on the deck and tore open the scroll.

The figures of the two quickly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, but Asmon seemed to muttered a little comfortably: "I always feel a lot more relieved." ”

That's right, that's right, I always feel that as long as these two people are here, their status is in jeopardy.

This time, the well-intentioned scam carefully arranged by Her Royal Highness the Princess was unknowingly exposed by these two detectives, but even so, relying on himself, he could still redeem some of it.

At least, the princess who has always worn a mask, knowing who she is, is already something that others can envy.

After the commotion subsided, the sailing boat, which had been slowing down, was able to continue moving, because the sky was cloudy for several days, and the sea was filled with a lot of fog, so everyone was forced to stay in the small cabin.

However, as this happened for several days, things started to get weird.

It stands to reason that although there will be fog on the sea, it is limited to morning and evening, and it is rare for this kind of place without urban pollution to be filled with fog in the air. Moreover, the weather was sunny before the detectives left, and since I don't know where to sail, it seems to have changed its face and become gloomy.

It felt like the ship had sailed somewhere it shouldn't be.

"Miss Thea. ”

Asmon naturally won't let go of this kind of opportunity, "Don't worry, even if you encounter any monsters, I will protect you." ”

"Thank you. ”

Thea took out a scroll from her pocket, "This scroll can barely teleport ten people, so there will definitely be one of us left, who do you think is left?"

“......”

Please, Thea, Asmon is hateful, but it's not right for you to trap him like this.

But even if you're always looking for jokes to pass the time, you can't stop being curious about what's going on outside.

Finally, when Jessica came in to deliver food again, Lilith asked, "It's been a few days since that fog outside, what the hell is going on?

"There really was nothing wrong. Jessica smiled reluctantly," said the captain, who said that the fog area was a bit large and would take a few days to cross it. ”

"But why do I think the ship is going in circles now?" said Lilith, "don't lie to us at such times. ”

“...... I see......" Jessica sighed, "Now the ship seems to be really going in circles, and the captain can't get out." On the west side of the original course, there was an island that was not too big or small, but the captain did not go there because the route was not there. But so far, it was the fourth time he had seen the identical island. ”

Lost?

No, how could the captain at the helm of the princess's ship be a reckless newbie. Coupled with this thick fog and cloudy days with no sunlight in a row, I always feel that this is not providence. And like something that is thought to be caused.

Could it be that this area is a large magic array?

"Is this a magic array?"

"I don't know, it's not what I'm good at. Frey shook her head, "Besides, if there really is a magician who can lay such a big maze, it is to know that there are not many people in the world who can solve it." Unless it's a few archangels who are proficient in magic, like Angel Cecia. ”

Cecia, the one she summoned before?

But it seems that after the last time she summoned her, she just glanced at herself, but nothing helped, that is, she probably did things according to her mood.

"The maze hasn't trapped us in it until now, and the island has given us a hint. "Probably not a malicious act, but probably to get us to the island, rather than to avoid it all the time." ”

"I see. Jessica nodded, "I'll tell the captain to let the ship sail to the island." ”

(Don't ask me who the princess is, I won't say it - anyone can guess the obvious.) )
