Like those late magic Aurors outside, Brooks first thought of the problem of "how to go deep into it" after preliminarily understanding some situations of the monastery.

However, it has to be said that in terms of luck, he is much better than John as a brother. With the help of a shitabe boy in person, they resolutely abandoned the seemingly simpler option of "pretending to be a tramp" and chose to sneak in in at night.

On this point, of course, those Aurors outside have not considered it. However, knowing that the monastery must be strange, and most of them are behind the scenes, such as "black wizards", who are operating from it, Auror's office can't find any traces. Of course, Auror's office doesn't dare to act rashly.

To this end, Brooks, who made a quick decision and was full of action, even went in before John and them caught up here.

Of course, no matter how determined and resolute Brooks is this time, his success in sneaking into the monastery has not been immediately discovered. After all, it is all due to the mysterious and capable shitabe boy beside him. Without the other party's amazing perception and hiding ability, he may have been caught countless times by those who live here.

"How's it going?"

Brooks squatted in the debris pile under the wooden stairs and looked out carefully through the gap between the two crates from time to time. After reconfirming that there was no one outside, he took time to turn back and ask in a low voice.

Soon, he saw that the shitabe boy who had been squatting there since more than ten minutes ago, with his head down and one hand on the floor, finally raised his face slightly and shook his head slightly at himself.

Since the night five days ago, the boy claimed that he felt a slight vibration. Since the underground came, the two of them have been hiding to avoid being found, and they have been looking for a possible entrance to the underground.

Unfortunately, after that, let alone the entrance, even a similar vibration did not appear again. So that these days they are like two mice who can't find food. They just keep running around in every corner, but they don't even know what they are doing.

Fortunately, perhaps it is precisely because this monastery almost always refuses outsiders! The kitchen in the hospital does not strictly control the food, which makes them not really become two hungry mice.

"... mice are an excellent food with strong fecundity and eat everything. It is said that they helped our ancestors survive several famines."

Hearing Brooks murmuring subconsciously there, the shitabe boy behind him seriously corrected a sentence. Brooks's scalp tingled when he heard the speech - he was not interested in using mice as food! It seems that if the other party is willing to invite him to have a potluck or something in the future, he'd better refuse.

Such an unimportant thought flashed through his mind. Brooks peeped out again, and then asked again without looking back:

"Now that this perception is over, should we... Change places again?"

He would ask, naturally because the other party has been constantly asking for a change of position in these days. In addition to the daily rotation rest to supplement physical strength, and the regular and quantitative need to steal food from the kitchen, they are basically on the way to move and avoid the residents - even though Brooks thought that they had found a pretty good no-one spot as a fixed hiding place several times, they failed to get the other party's approval.

"Knowing that there are strong enemies we can't deal with, it's definitely safer and more appropriate to keep moving than to stay in one place, because we don't know whether we have the possibility of keeping complete hiding under each other's eyes."

This is the answer given by Brooks after several inquiries.

To be honest, he doesn't have the perception ability to detect the existence of the enemy like the other party. In fact, it's difficult for him to really realize the feeling that an unknown strong enemy is eyeing in the dark. For Brooks, it's like walking on the edge of a cliff just to avoid the residents almost all the time.

However, since the shitabe boy is willing to take risks with himself, what reason does he have not to trust each other? What's more, considering only ability, the other party is much better than himself!

Therefore, although Brooks has had a hard time these days, he has been gritting his teeth and sticking to it for a moment.

"Someone is coming. Hide and don't move."

Suddenly, the eyes of the shitabe boy on the more inner side changed. He noticed someone approaching before Brooks, who was responsible for staring at the outer corridor on the outside. He reached out and gently pulled the latter's clothes back.

Brooks immediately shrunk his head and covered his head directly with the waterproof cloth wrapped around his body. Almost after he finished this action, the sound of footsteps came faintly from the corner at the other end of the corridor, accompanied by some slight dialogue.

"Have you arranged for the children from the north?"

"Yes, but because there are a lot of people this time, there is not enough manpower - it should have been accompanied one-on-one, but this time it should at least be more than 'one belt and four'."

"Well, in any case, we have to inform the Dean first and implement it with the consent of the dean. Let them live for a day and adapt. It's not urgent."

"OK."

"By the way, what about Eliza before? She has good ability and intelligence. This time, she brought a child with excellent intelligence to the Dean... Maybe it's time to officially absorb her."

"Yes! The Dean also mentioned... Well, I'll try again tonight!"

The dialogue sounds from close to far away. Listen to the footsteps. It should be upstairs. At the bottom of the stairs, Brooks, who only showed his eyes under the tarpaulin, habitually looked at the shitabe boy and happened to see that the other party was looking towards him.

The two men's eyes collided in the middle.

"This may... Be an opportunity?"

Brooks obviously didn't know the relationship between Eliza and TIA at all, but since it was possible for the other party to meet the mysterious Abbot they had never seen so far... It was undoubtedly a very dangerous opportunity.

"If you want to save people, you have to take the risk after all."

The shitabe boy nodded and agreed with Brooks.
