Chapter 303

I went back home alone.

「Ah, I’m tired~.」

「Welcome home, Seiji-sama. How was it?」

Elena greets me.

「Aya and the others are being interrogated by the police. Well, they’ll take the last train home.」

「Then, that means, the incident was resolved?」

「Yeah, no one should be getting attacked anymore.」

「I’m so glad!」

Well, it doesn’t mean that the problem is completely solved, though.

That’s right, the mastermind, that fellow [Gold], is still free to do whatever he wants.

When I looked into the [Tracking Beacon]’s video that I attached to [Gold], he’s still only walking back and forth restlessly, waiting for a message.

Haven’t you received a message that the terrorism failed?

When I was looking at [Gold]’s situation like this, [Hiyama Ai] entered into the room [Gold] was in in a big hurry.

『What’s wrong, Ai, did something happen?』

『I-, It’s a disaster. Please look at the news.』

『Hm? The news?』

[Gold] turned on the TV in the room.

「It has become a disaster. After continuously modifying the program’s contents, I give you the news flash of Tokyo’s synchronized, multiple terrorism incident.」

『Terrorism incident…wha-?』

『It’s not only that, the Nancy・Jewelry staffs seemed to be involved with this terrorism.』

『What did you say!?』

Huh? That fellow, Gold, is really surprised.

Although he should be the one who requested them, why is he surprised?

Was the mafias action different from what Gold requested?

Hmmm, I don’t really get it.

「Seiji-sama, I made tea.」

「Thank you.」

While drinking the tea that Elena made, I decided to look at the others’ situation with Elena.

⁂

『As I’ve said! The three of us–mama, Elena and me went to worship!』

『That person called Elena, where is she?』

『……s-, she disappeared.』

『I see……』

Somehow or other, it seems Nancy is being asked about the situation by the police.

『According to the other people, there was..an angel who healed wounds using magic; you’re testifying……that the one called Elena is that angel…is that correct?』

『T-, That’s right……』

『I see……』

『You don’t believe me!? It’s true!!』

The policeman looked troubled.

『I think that would be all, Nancy-san, you had a very scary experience today. Excessive stress causes our proper judgement to get out of order. Such a thing is a common topic.』

『B-, But……』

『Let’s think sensibly. On this Earth, a magic that heals wounds, does it exists?』

『No……』

『Then, a person suddenly disappearing, is there something like that?』

『……no……』

Somehow or other, she seems to be unable to make him believe about Elena and is perplexed.

I’m sorry, Nancy.

『But still-! Elena was there!!!』

『……I see, Nancy seems to be quite tired. Let’s hear about the story again another day.』

『Okay……』

Nancy hang her head low and left the room.

「Seiji-sama, I feel a little sorry for Nancy-san.」

「Well, it can’t be helped.」

⁂

Mama-san was asked about the story in another room.

『Then, don’t you have any idea that you were going to be attacked?』

『That’s impossible!』

『But, the fact is that, not only you and your daughter, Nancy, but the high school where your exclusive model, Megumi-san, goes to and even your exclusive designer, Ringo-san, too had encountered terrorist attack at the same time, you see? I can’t think of any reason but you guys, being targeted…』

『Megumi and Ringo are being targeted, too, you said?!! Are they both safe!?』

『Yes, the two of them are safe. Megumi-san wasn’t in the high school, which was attacked, and Ringo-san seemed to have been helped by her friends.』

『I’m glad……』

Somehow or other, the police seems to have noticed that the Nancy Jewelry is being targeted, too.

Hmm, what to do?

⁂

「Then, my fist thrust explodes!」

「I-, I’m sorry…… about the fight’s content, leave it out for the time being. The attack’s details among other things……」

「Those sort of things, I don’t know.」

「I-, Is that right……」

It seems Aya is being asked about the situation, too, but the policewoman listening to her story is cringing at Aya’s wildness.

Aya, don’t cause trouble for the police!

「The other party had guns, right? Weren’t you scared?」

「In that case, ‘nii-cha…」

「Nii-cha?」

「It was nothing. Some of the guns seemed to be broken and accidentally discharged, so they threw their guns away midfight.」

「So that’s what happened, huh. But, the other party had bladed tools, too, right?」

「Dealing with bladed tools is a piece of cake for me!」

If you were going to say that, it’s [saisai]!

Are you planning to make a tea-cake with [sichuan pickles] or something?!

「Let me see, as for that person’s side…… 19 years old!? It’s a lie, right?」

「Oh well, never mind since I’ve grown accustomed to everyone being surprised about it.」

「Ah, forgive my rudeness.」

This time, it seems she’s going to hear the story from Mai-san, who’s in the side.

「Let me see, your strong point is karate among other things.」

「Yeah, that’s right. I may not look like it, but I’ve won the championship at the national athletic meet.」

「A-, Amazing……」

「Isn’t it fine for us to claim “self-defense” for this time’s event?」

「Of course, the other party are terrorists with weapons and on the contrary, you might get awarded.」

「Awarded!? Perhaps, we’re going to receive the [Superintendent General Award] or something like that!?」

Aya interrupted from the side.

「Yes, there’s a possibility.」

「Whoopee!! Captain, the [Superintendent General Award], she said.」

Well, for the time being, it seems Aya and the others haven’t become suspicious, so it doesn’t seem to be a problem.

Yurie-san and Ringo were being examined at a hospital.

They shouldn’t have any injury, but just in case.

Hilda and Megumi-chan were eating dinner happily.

⁂

Phew, the issue is settled with this.

I don’t have anything to be afraid of anymore with this……

Hm? Did I say something strange?

At that moment-!

The [Vigilance] magic notified me of the danger once again.

Eh? What’s going on?

I should’ve already helped everyone……

Who on earth fell into danger!?
