Episode 28: Where's the Storage Location

"I want you to cooperate. I can't find the Magic Stone Vault."

Commercial Guild investigations began early in the morning, but the building that the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce was supposed to own had no large storage space.

I didn't carefully check the contents of the box because I didn't have time to study it in detail, but I still didn't have a huge amount of magic stone vault.

The Radolsian Chamber of Commerce cooperated in the investigation and the employees were seen to be working as usual.

If we don't find him, Gates will be held responsible for making a false accusation.

We just had to find a place to store it somehow.

So I came into contact with Melissa, who was reading the materials at the inn.

"Where is he?"

"I've been out since morning."

"In this situation?"

Melissa sighs at Gates' words.

"We have nothing to do with the problem of the Commercial Country of Legulas.Just keep Sylvia as your escort, and I appreciate it.How many assassins do you think were released between last night and this morning? "

The simplest way to break the status quo is to eliminate Gates.

However, if that is done, it is likely that the meeting itself that decides on the next chairperson will be cancelled regardless of whether or not the elimination is successful.

Still hunted down, the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce sent assassins to buy us some time.

"... four people"

As a result, four bodies would roll into Gates' office, where they spent the night preparing documents to move soldiers.

It has also been told to the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce that Sylvia is an amazing escort.

The only reason Gates is still safe is because of Sylvia.

Well, that's good.

Place the material Melissa was reading next door.

"I understand everything.But we can't just cooperate. "

"Is there something wrong?"

"Earlier, my lord asked a man from the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce not to cooperate in searching the storage site for 100 pieces of gold.The same conditions apply to us as party members. "

"Oh no...."

Gates was pushed in the same direction.

That's why he tried to rely on me.

Melissa put her hand on Gates' shoulder with a smile on her face.

"Rest assured. I'm just asking."

"... you asked me to (...)?"

"Yes, I promise."

I don't have a contract.

The contents were not such as to be left in the documents, and I wanted to make it a personal matter rather than a Radolsian Chamber of Commerce.

"If you offer a higher reward than the other person, you can't help it."

Is that what you're saying?

Gates laughs bitterly when he understands what Melissa wants to say.

"Let's double that.However, finding it is a minimum requirement. "

"Yes, sir."

Sylvia, who knows all the circumstances, also has a bitter smile.

"By the way, what were you reading earlier?"

Is this it?

At the center of the arranged material is a map of the legacy.

There are various information documents surrounding the map.It looks like it's untouched, but Melissa makes it easy to analyze.

"First, I will tell you from the information we have.Information on the Magic Stone Vault has been circulated to the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce last night.Looks like someone tipped you off. "

"That's what any chamber of commerce would do."

Because it is a city with many merchants, information is also valuable, and important information is sold with money.

The Chamber of Commerce and Industry had secured a partner to sell the information in the event of an emergency.

It is no wonder that Gates' information has been leaked.If Gates wants information about the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce, he can get it.

"But the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce didn't know about this."

"Do you believe that?"

"Believe, not disbelieve, at least it's true that the chairman doesn't know."

We need to dispel the facts.

But first, we need to find out where the Magic Stone is stored, and we can't crush the physical evidence.

"But if you use someone from the Chamber of Commerce, you're bound to leak information."

Unlike information sold earlier.

I know that an investigation was planned as of last night, and it would be suspicious if there were fewer employees than usual.

Only a handful of Chamber of Commerce people can be mobilized.

But then we won't be able to find the Magic Stone Storage in the big city.

So I decided to hire an adventurer.

I hired an adventurer who was good at exploring last night.

Because simply hiring can spread the information, you will be hiring a lot of money in advance, including a shutdown fee.

Adventurers are better at exploring unknown places.The choice of the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce is by no means wrong.

"But if we had a little more time, we could have gone undercover."

It was a sudden convocation, so I could keep my mouth shut, but even though it was late at night, other adventurers witnessed the moving adventurers.

Gear up and go out.

The adventurers, who were sensitive to lucrative stories, sniffed away the smell of gold when they didn't think they'd gone for a walk.

"We don't know exactly where you went or what you did."

As a result, only the rumor of 'something' has gone solo.

Where did I find the unknown adventurer today in the middle of the night?

The rumors were filled with adventurer guilds gathered by adventurers.

"Witness testimony may not be directly related to the location of the search, such as immediately after you leave, but it can be helpful to narrow it down."

The map is written by Melissa's hand.

There were also arrows inside, which were eventually narrowed down.

"South District?"

The southwestern part of the legend was marked.

"Yes, but it's not on the ground."

There is no doubt that the person who pulled through the Magic Stone was a person inside the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce, which is also close to the upper echelons.

Otherwise, so many documents had been altered that it was impossible.

The Magic Stone Storage is probably the property of the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce.If stored on another person's land, there is a higher risk of being found.If you are in a high position, you can get information from the Chamber of Commerce and move even in the unlikely event.

In the southwest, there were several warehouses owned by the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce.

"But there wasn't a lot of magic stones anywhere."

Nevertheless, the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce did not give up.

The invisible adventurers have not returned since yesterday.

"Apparently, the Radolsian Chamber of Commerce thought there was a storage facility underground."

"Underground... underground waterways!"

A complex structure runs underground in the legends.

I tried to release some rat-shaped monsters, but I was able to see the Explorer.However, since they found the monster and crushed it, I only know where I witnessed it, and I don't have any specific information.

But that was enough.

There's something in the basement.

That will suffice.

"Rest assured. You'll find it today."

Are you going to go there now?

"No, my job is to analyze the information and narrow it down."

If you have a conversation, you can get instructions even if you are away.

"The Lord is already on site."

Gates was astonished at the words.

"You were going to take care of the request from the beginning."

"No, I was just gathering information because I didn't care about the request."

Rumors Isla heard at the Adventurers Guild.
