110. How to stop organized crime (2)

“The child isn’t hurt, and as you can see, I’m fine. It was the knight who caught the criminal, not me in the first place.”

“It’s a big deal if you almost get kidnapped. The child must be in shock, but I don’t know if it will be okay.”

“You don’t have to worry about him. Rather, he really liked that he received the medal.”

For reference, the little boy who was almost kidnapped was awarded the Brave Child Medal.

The homeroom teacher came and slapped me on the butt, but I didn’t seem to regret it, perhaps thanks to the word that I was getting a medal.

“Ahahahaha, that’s cute.”

“It was pretty cute when you shrugged your shoulders and said how brave you were.”

“What is it, the boss was also a person who could make daddy smile like that? Why don’t you show it to me!”

After frowning at Ariando’s absurd aegyo, he said.

“Why are you doing this disgustingly? Why do I have to build you something like that?”

Ask him to give him a daddy smile?

“Tch! You’re unkind! I’m cuter than him!”

Ariand also shows arrogant confidence in cuteness.

“Are you saying that with your own mouth?”

To be honest, the little boy was smart, but not cuter than Ariando.

He’s just cute because he’s young, and Ariando has a cuteness that transcends his age.

“Isn’t that cute? Me?”

“…..”

In other words, since he was telling the truth, he had nothing to say to Ariando.

I decided to just pretend I didn’t hear.

“Huh? The boss is ignoring my words.”

“Since we’ve found the culprit, the lockdown will end soon. It was a little uncomfortable, but it worked out.”

He nodded and replied to Baine’s words.

“At least something like today won’t happen.”

“Isn’t it really cute? Aren’t I cute?”

“You’re cute, Ariando.”

“Isn’t it~? After all, there’s only francs~”

Ariando was embraced in Fran’s arms.

Ariando struggled to avoid being buried in Fran’s chest.

“It’s too inconvenient to be checked.”

“Right, did we look so suspicious?”

“It’s not that we’re suspicious, but you’re suspicious.”

“Does your uncle look like a criminal?”

Suddenly, all their eyes turned to my face.

I didn’t look away as if I was proud.

‘It’s not a face I fall for that much.’

I’ve never heard of being ugly anywhere.

At least, I am proud that I look human, and I think it is not a face that arouses disgust.

“what.”

But their reaction is a bit strange.

Because everyone was staring blankly at me.

At the stinging gaze, he kept his expressionless expression, asking, “What are you going to do?”

“Hmmm.”

“Eh-hum.”

“What’s the mood like?”

The kids who made eye contact with me coughed excessively.

How on earth could my face capture such a strange atmosphere?

“Is my face that ugly?”

I am now in a much better condition than when I was a mercenary in the past, using paid appearance management products.

With constant care, my skin has improved a lot.

Of course, compared to the aristocrats who had been steadily managing since childhood, he had no choice but to fall.

“heheheheung, noyeyoung.”

“My uncle has, to say the least, an atmosphere.”

“Yep.”

They exchange glances with each other.

There seemed to be something, but I felt like I was the only one who didn’t understand, so I felt a little left out.

At that time, Fran snugly grabbed my hand.

“???”

All the kids were watching, and I suddenly wondered why this was happening, but a white light emitted from Fran’s hand and then disappeared.

He said that he was fine because he was not injured, but Fran seemed to be uneasy.

“Because I’m not hurt.”

“Nevertheless. You’re tired.”

Fran’s healing ability, which had been strengthened to the 11th level with the encouragement of his friends, was now at a level that could be revived if he did not die.

In an instant, my body felt refreshed.

It’s like the feeling you get when you go into a sauna, sweat out, wash up, and bite banana milk right into your mouth.

‘It’s addictive.’

Wouldn’t it be great if we could continue to receive this?

“It certainly makes my body feel refreshed. But can I just accept that something so great is just to adjust my condition? My conscience pricks me.”

“You can do that. If you tell me anytime, I’ll do it.”

Fran said with a shy smile.

It was a word that moved people quite a bit.

Is this the taste of raising children?

‘In the case of Fran… the helmsman?’

Since she still insists on becoming my wife, she is a helmsman.

“How is it that you’re strong 11?”

I couldn’t take a closer look at how the relic has changed.

As Fran went up to the round of 11 so easily, the kids who lost their momentum were clamoring to do their own thing again, so they couldn’t take care of everything.

“I don’t know yet. But it’s easier to use my strength than before. The effect has improved a lot. Even though I’m using my strength now, it’s not that hard at all.”

Fran was now getting closer to the full Munchkin.

It can be said that the franc itself is becoming a ‘resurrection stone’.

Personally, I thought I would make the round of 12 in France even if I invested in it.

‘I don’t know what this ability will be attached to.’

The more Fran was raised, the more rewarding he was.

“Mister, you look very tired, let’s go back now.”

Shine said something unexpectedly admirable.

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes, sir, your eyeballs are deeply sunken.”

“It’s not quite there yet.”

“We’re going! Boss, get some rest!”

At Shine’s words, the kids quickly agreed.

I wondered if they were asking to be strengthened again, but I guess they weren’t that immature.

I saw the kids off while feeling strange.

And after a few days from that day.

Hash came to the general store.

Speaking of unexpected things.

⁂ ⁂ ⁂

“I need some help.”

“????”

Why do I have a strange feeling of déjà vu?

“What help do you need?”

I decided to take seriously Hash’s spleen attitude and asked.

“I thought Neirel couldn’t come because of the lockdown. But that wasn’t the case.”

“what?”

What kind of dog is this again?

“It’s a deal I’ve been hiding on purpose. Neirel has been kidnapped.”

“…Narel is one of the three kidnapped students?”

“yes.”

Suddenly, I remembered what the article said the other day.

Among the culprits, there was someone disguised as a knight.

‘I thought it was the knights from my family who took Nerel.’

What if it was camouflage?

The reason for kidnapping Neirel makes sense.

If what Hash said is true, isn’t Neirel a competent person with a promising future?

“So what are you going to do?”

I felt anxious.

It was obvious that Hash who cared for Neirel would do strange things without hesitation.

“They say they found out where Neirel is.”

Could this be information from the kidnappers I helped catch a few days ago?

“How did you know that?”

“That’s a secret.”

Hash kept his mouth shut as if he had no intention of answering.

It didn’t seem like he knew that in a normal way.

“Ha, so?”

“I’ll go there too.”

Hash said that he hoped it wasn’t a nose.

“Why are you there?”

Go and what will help?

It would be nice if it didn’t get in the way.

“It’ll help. I’m strong, and I can be a decoy.”

“bait??”

“I knew where the kids were, but getting them out unscathed is another story.”

Rescue operations are difficult because it is difficult to deal with enemies while keeping the hostages safe.

The first priority is the safety of the hostages, but I had to be careful because I couldn’t tell where they were being held.

“So I decided to be the bait.”

The faces of the criminals caught by the Awakener’s ability are covered and the knights enter the inside.

Hash will be disguised as a kidnapped child.

It would be great if Hash could get into the place where the abducted children are gathered.

The problem was that Hash had no choice but to be exposed to the kidnappers in the process.

“You’re going to do such a risky operation? What kind of lunatic would allow that?”

“Everyone said no, but I insisted. I really want to do it. I can’t even try this strategy without me. They say you can change your face, but you can’t change your body shape.”

It’s impossible to change even the body shape, so isn’t it a little bit like hiring a real kid?

If that’s the case, it’s right that you don’t even start this operation at all.

“Because I’m a nobleman. I can do it. Did I train all this time to do something like this? And I want to help get my friend back.”

If you don’t step out on your own, how can you say you won’t do it because this operation is impossible to start?

In the end, what if Neirel gets hurt while rescuing unreasonably without being able to attempt the operation?

“I will never be able to forgive myself.”

Tears fell from Hash’s big eyes.

It was a look that was already determined.

“What do you want to ask of me?”

“Your shop has a lot of good stuff. I hope you sell them.”

I thought we were pretty close.

Jammins came to visit quite often, and I remember that they welcomed the visit even though they did not actively welcome it due to their personality.

But the only request you ask me is to sell you something?

“Do you think the only thing I can do for you is to sell you stuff? Did I look so incompetent?”

“I didn’t mean to burden you. I was very worried about coming to you. But there’s no place that sells good stuff like your shop…”

“It’s okay! If you’re a normal guy, it’s normal to take care of it so that children don’t come forward. Are you working with the guards?”

“Huh? Eh…”

“let’s go.”

I need to see the faces of the bastards who are trying to operate with their children.

⁂ ⁂ ⁂

“We kept saying no.”

“…I see.”

In a fit of rage, he went to the guard and met the person involved.

However, it turns out that the operation was a one-sided request from Hash.

“We are also in trouble. We know that you are in a hurry, but we hope that you will trust us and wait for us.”

“It’s true that it’s safer for me to help.”

Hash also replied as if he had something to say.

“We can safely rescue them without such an operation.”

The knights begged to believe it, but Hash didn’t seem to like the knights who tried dangerous methods while leaving safe ones.

“…then how about doing it like this?”

While watching the situation, I came up with an idea and told the knights and hash.

“There is a way to do this operation without hash being involved.”

“I can’t do this operation without my participation!”

Hash immediately contradicted me, but alas, that was not true.

It was because I knew a girl with a small body that could be said to be a little bigger than Hash, but not that big.

The girl was much older than Hash and was strong, so there was no big problem with participating in this operation.

In the first place, for that girl, this operation would have been something that could not be dangerous.
