Life didn't get easier, even in another world.

Alan kept staring at the team leader with an annoyed face. Team leader Dains picked up one of the papers and started talking.

"Alan Gill, was it? You said your name was that before."

He glanced at Alan's face before continuing.

"Alan Gill. There was no information about a person with that name no matter how much we searched. No data of birth, no parents, no relatives, not even a bank account, nothing. As if this person had just popped up out of nowhere."

Team leader Dains looked at Alan again. There was no change of expression on his face.

"So we had to change the way that we were searching. We searched about his house, the ruing. When did people start seeing someone live in the ruin beside that mountain? The latest report is from 10 years ago. The first report was for April 26's when people of a village near the ruin found a bunch of their livestock dead near an abandoned ruin. No one even got close to that place before that time. Those people ran away and reported it to the local police, but the culprit wasn't found. We know that Alan Gill lived in that place, so where was this person before that? Well, let's stop talking about Alan Gill for now."

Team leader Dains put down the paper in his hand and picked up another one.

"Let's talk about someone else first. Someone named Alain Gill. Alain Gill was a young man that was killed in a fight with the thugs that tried to rob his house on April 24's, 10 years ago." 

Team leader Dains leaned back and crossed his legs. 

"Then again, who was Alain Gill? He was a young man who worked in a supermarket in a town near Mount Fiera. He had no family or relatives and lived alone. According to himself, he moved from his hometown to that town to find a job 15 years before his death. Hmm, there is even a picture of him. Golden eyes and light blonde hair... Hmm."

Team leader Dains looked at Alan's golden eyes once again and smiled. He was still silently listening to his words.

"Again, there was nothing that one could find about Alain Gill in the hometown that he mentioned. No one named Alain Gill used to live there. Instead, there was someone named Alain Jill who used to live there. The man was a shopkeeper who was killed trying to save a kid from a monster attack 25 years ago, which means around the same time that Alain Gill entered that town. The said man also lived alone. He was first a homeless and poor person until an old woman gave him a job and a place to stay after hearing that he had lost his family in an accident. That would be another 13 years back in time."

Team leader Dains flipped the pages, glancing at Alan from time to time and keeping him in check.

"If you search the accidents that had happened at that area 38 years ago, one accident stands out the most. A soldier named Allen Jill saved a family that was stuck in their car after an accident but was killed in the car's explosion right after all the family was saved. The said soldier had no family or relatives, he had joined the army 8 years before his death."

Team leader Dains sighed, placed the papers down on the table, and looked directly at Alan's eyes.

"Do I need to continue? There are still a few ones left."

Alan tilted his head.

"You said a nice story, but what does that have to do with me?"

"Hah!"

Team leader Dains sneered.

"Right! I'd like to know the same. I'd like to know what does all these mean. I'm waiting for your explanations, sir."

"Hmm..."

The man's expression didn't change much. He didn't seem to care about the stories that he just heard at all. He, who was leaning against the back of his chair, moved forward and placed his hands on the table. He looked around the room once, before moving even closer towards the team leader.

"What do you want?"

Alan ignored the team leader and moved closer, then whispered something to the team leader's ear once they were close enough.

"I have something much more interesting to talk to you about instead of all of this boring stuff."

. . . . . . 

Rai picked up a parer and walked to the desk that Elsie was sitting at. He placed the paper in front of Elsie and scolded her.

"You should also write your report as well. What have you been doing in the few past days?"

Elsie frowned. She looked between Rai and the paper and sighed.

"Sorry, I'll write it later."

"Do it now."

"I can't. I want to read these until the end. Please, it's really interesting."

Rai peeked at the papers in Elsie's hands.

"Is that the information about Alan Gill?"

Elsie nodded her head.

"That's right. You must've read them as well."

"Yeah, it was really surprising."

Everybody in the hall was busy reading some papers or had already finished reading them. Everyone seemed surprised after reading through all of the papers. The papers contained the information that they had found on Alan Gill. 

Carlson put down the papers in his hands and placed his chin in his palm.

"Do you think they can prove anything with this? This sure is weird but I still can't get how it is possible."

"I'm not sure, but it sure will be helpful."

"Alan Gill. Alain Gill. Alain Jill. Allen Jill. Allen Gill. Allin Jill. Really, what the hell?"

Serria also took her eyes off of the papers and turned towards the one who had gathered all the information.

"Anyway, how did you find these, Kairen? I keep thinking about it and still don't get it."

Flinch

Kairen flinched and gulped. Everyone in the hall was looking at him again. Kairen raised the edges of his lips with difficulty and smiled forcefully.

"I-It isn't much. I... I just thought about all the possibilities and searched through them... It was mostly by chance."

Serria narrowed her eyes.

"Still, this is too good and accurate to be gathered in just two hours. Even more, who would've thought to search for names that are similar to Alan Gill? Definitely not me."

Kairen scratched the back of his head and smiled even more.

"I kinda managed to do that... I came across most of it by chance."

"Come on, don't say it was by chance. There is no way you can find all of these accidents."

"Right. You've done nice. Stop going around and talking about chance."

"Yeah, I didn't think you were good at this kind of stuff, but wow man."

"Glenn nagged a lot about how it was hard to do everything without an assistant, I guess he is really happy now. There is finally someone who can help him."

"Our newbies are definitely the best."

"Yeah."

Kairen kept on smiling until everybody was done talking. 

"Thank you."

Kairen thanked them and lowered his head, trying his hardest not to look at anyone.

He looked at the documents on the desk, the information that he himself had gathered, and sighed.

'I can't possibly tell them that I found everything just because of a typo...'

Everything started when he mistakenly typed Alein Gill instead of Alan Gill when he was going through the cases related to 10 years ago.

He then found something interesting about that person that seemed to be related to Alan Gill. He looked into that man's information and found out that he also had a strange past. Kairen looked into the incidents that had happened in that person's hometown and found out about someone else with a similar name to Alain Gill that had died a few days before he moved to that town.

Kairen continued to repeat that thing. Whenever he couldn't find anything, he would search different names that were similar to Alan Gill. That wasn't really the best way but he managed to find some information by doing that.

That's how he could gather all the information that might be related to Alan Gill.

Kairen himself didn't get how he did that. He was surprised himself, and everybody else was. 

Glenn started at Kairen after he read the documents for two minutes without blinking. He then started smiling happily and praising Kairen, saying he was really smart and other kinds of compliments. 

Everybody was so excited about the information and praised him so much that he was embarrassed to tell them that it all started because of a typo and not because of his intelligence or anything else. 

No. He did tell them, but no one listened. They thought he was just being humble.

'The things about Glenn wanting to take me as an assistant weren't true, right? Yeah. There is no way.'

Kairen sighed once more.

He just wished that the information he found would at least be helpful.
