The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

With the immobile Lao Cres and the smile of a smile, I was in a hurry to move more than anyone else. I was pulled away by Crores and left the room where the women cheered.

Go out into the hallway, walk a little... and Laocres opens his mouth.

"... when did I become yours?"

"I'm sorry. I mean... I knew it was quick to do it."

I haven't recovered from my upset yet, but I can't help but remember [ahhhh] and get upset again.When I was away at my feet, and I poured into the cobblestone gap, I got Laocles to support me, and I got nothing.... oh, you don't have to look so awe-inspiring!

"... the detectives here don't have anything to do with people's things."That's why you won't be able to touch my employer... no, you won't be able to even think about it... "

Even though she was a little lost in her words, Crore looked at me with an indescribable smile and then smiled bitterly at Laocles.

"It's the same for you." So for the time being, it's mine.That was the case earlier, but it was certain.I'm sorry if I upset you. "

I don't care if it was necessary.

Laocles looked at Crore a little bit bitterly... and sighed.

"... but you have to tell me beforehand that it is so"

"... I'm sorry. It was my mistake.I didn't expect it to get so noisy.No good, I'm used to seeing you... ahhh "

Crore sighed along with Lao Cres, as she did so.

I understand that feeling a little bit.Because I am used to seeing Lao Cres, I think that it is not a big deal to see someone who is reputed to be a "splendid flesh warrior" when I go out to town.That's how you get used to it, isn't it?

... I wish I hadn't thought of that.

"... if I knew that I was going to do such an act, I would have set my sights on it a little bit more."

That's what Laocres said.

Huh?

"So tell me in advance," I said.I'm not in the nature of being able to respond in an ad hoc manner.

... unusually, Crore looked up at Lao Cres' face.

"If I knew in advance, I could do it.I know it's such a nag, but I could've pretended to be [yours] a little better... hey, Crore. What's the matter? "

"... ah, no, it's not. um....."

Finally, when Crore stopped his legs and showed a troubling gesture by pointing his fingers at his forehead...... he turned his gaze towards Laocles as if it were unimpressive.

That's what you're saying, too, isn't it?

... looking at Crore, who was in a terrible motion, Laocles looked a little surprised... hmm, smiled.

Damn, that's unusual. It's unusual, but Crore is losing to Lao Cres!What an unusual look! Wow! I want to draw!

Having drawn Mr. Crore, we go down the hall again.

Through the back of the room, through a corridor, into a place where there were doors lined up, and when he reached one of them, Crore used some kind of magic to unlock the door.

"Come on in."

When I entered the room to be pushed by Croa-san... it was a small room without much stuff.

"... this is..."

"It's my room."

Huh?

Thinking again about what Crore said, I tasted something strange.

This place is too small for Crore's room.There's a simple bed, a small desk and chair, a lamp on the desk, and only one closet. That's all.

"... was it unexpected?"

Yeah. Wow.

When I answer honestly, Crore giggles. [M]I'm glad you didn't feel bad.

"Well, this wasn't a place to enjoy luxury, it was a place to sleep."If you have a place to store your work equipment and a place to sleep, you'll have enough. "

Crore says that, lighting the lamp to brighten the room.

"I don't know when I'm going to die, and I don't have a guarantee that I'll live in one place for a long time... I've changed places several times."So it's ridiculous to have a lot of furniture. ”

Illuminated by the light of the magic stone lamp, I lit up Ms. Crore's side face.It was such a beautiful face, but... the shadows were so thick that it looked lonely.

"... then, is it good for Crore to have a house in the woods now?"

However, I asked in horror... and Crore nodded with a full smile.

Of course!

I'm glad, too, because Mr. Crore seems happy.It was really nice that the forest was a place where Crore could keep a lot of furniture.

Crore-san, do you want to build a vacation home somewhere?

Oh, is that okay? I'm glad to hear that.

As soon as we talked about it, Crore and I sat down on the bed, and Laocres pulled out the chair and sat there... and suddenly I remembered.

”Speaking of which, would it be better to call Crore-san... [Karen]?”

Earlier, Mr. Crore was called by a different name.

"Well, to be honest, either way, you can do whatever you like."Neither of them is my real name. "

And I quickly got a shocking answer. Oh, my God.

"Well, then, what's your real name...?"

“I don't remember. After all, I don't have many memories before being picked up, and after being picked up, I didn't particularly need a name... It's like changing a name every time I go to work, so I don't have any" my name "in particular."Karen is the first name I used."

I see.... it seems that there are so many things in this world.

And the Crore I know is really only a part of her.She was either "Karen" or "Crore"... and I think she lived a lot of lives with a lot more names.

"That's why... if you don't care, will you continue to call me" Crore "?"

... but Crore looked into my face, sitting next to me, and smiled a bit modestly.

"... if you like, of course, that's fine with me."

"Yes, that's fine, because 'Crore' is my name."

The woman I didn't know well had a smile on her face that I knew well. [M]

"... because I like it best when I'm under this name!"

"Okay. Well, then... good luck from now on, Crore-san."

Looking at Crore, who seemed a little happy, I was also twitching and getting happy.

I don't know her very well.I know we've been through a lot of things we don't know about... but let's just leave it at that.

Her name is Mr. Crore. He's an important companion in the woods.You don't have to worry about anything.It was easy.

Hey, Laocles?

What the hell?

"I understand a little bit how it feels to have become a 'Laocles' instead of a 'Bulk Raed Orient'."

... Laocles didn't answer anything in particular to Crore's words.However, instead of replying, I raised the edge of my mouth a little.It's, it's satisfying.

"... now. I wonder if it's time to go."

After a bit more chatting, Crore suddenly says that... and looks under the bed and starts pulling out something that looks like a costume box.

I wonder what it is, and we're also peeking in...... amazed.

Shall we go?

... there was a hidden door under the bed, on the floor hidden in the costume box!

"Where does this lead?"

It's 'Father'.

We descend the joystick and follow the underground passage.... I wonder if the ground around here is full of these underground passages. Wow.

”Is that... the parent of your upbringing?”

"Well, I wonder if that's the case."The point is, this organization is at the top. "

He's one of the top detectives in the organization.I wonder what kind of person he is.With all sorts of fluffy imaginations in her head, Croa goes down the underground passageway without hesitation.... a souvenir paper bag in his hand.There is a package of sweets from the fairy Western confectionery store."Hmm, do the top people in the detective organization eat sweets..."

Well, then, are you ready?

Then Crore looks back at us in front of a door.

What am I supposed to do?

"I see... just in case something happens to the blade, please run away"

"It's possible that a blade injury is happening..."

"If you don't have anything in particular, you just have to hang around."Your father just wants to look at you, and he's not going to do anything about it... so even if you want to do something about it, if you look at you, you'll know you can't do anything about it. "

"... um, um, why would that person want to see me?"

"Oh, you're the young Mayor of Soleila?"I know you want to get along a bit... and I wonder what kind of boy I'll hire. "

Crore said it without a hitch, but that puts a lot of pressure on me."I wonder if I look good enough for your employer..."

"You don't have to worry about it."I don't care if you're dazed. "

But as she said something worrisome, she responded with a nod.I think Crore is fine because she says she's fine.I don't know what's okay, but they say it's okay, so maybe.

Then when Crore opened the door... it was behind a bookshelf or something.

”... this is really happening, isn't it?”

"Fufu, is that so?" It's really there, it's like this. "

There are hidden doors on the back of the bookshelf, there is a safe if you remove the frames, and so on.I'm a little touched.

Crore slams the back of the bookshelf with a door knocker attached to the back of the bookshelf.Wow, that's weird.

"Come in."

A voice was heard from beyond the bookshelf, and Crore grabbed the doorknob attached to the backboard of the bookshelf and pushed the bookshelf.

... beyond the bookshelf was a small but luxurious room.

A heavy ebony paper desk.Black leather chairs. The carpet is wine red.There is a small chandelier on the ceiling. There are bookshelves lined with lavishly decorated books, and swords and axes adorn the walls.Also, there are a few documents and writing instruments on the desk.Then a glass of amber liquor and a nutty plate.There was also a "tea can" that was at my place, and a few of the contents were on the desk.

... and in the middle of such a room, the person sitting in a chair looking at us is probably Croatia's [father].
