An entertainment district in the capital of the kingdom.
Takeo and the others who had joined up with Rack came to a certain shop.
"Chief, this way."
Arkin says.
"... please be careful, Lord Kitamizato."
Rack says it.
"Be careful, nothing..."
Takeo was stunned by Rack's words.
“You have a reservation, don't you? Do you want to come in?"
Takeo says that Arkin knocks on the door of the store.
Then, the door immediately opens and a man of good stature comes out.
“It's Viscount Kitamizato who made the reservation in advance.”
Arkin says.
"I've been waiting for you."
My husband is waiting for you inside. "
A man of good stature lowered his head and put Takeso and the others in the store.
In front of the room in the back of the store.
"This is it."
Excuse me. "
A man of good stature opens the door.
"Welcome, there you are."
Inside, there was a woman who seemed to be the same age as Takeo and two women waiting one step behind, and they lowered their heads to greet Takeo and the others.
There is one seat for a woman and five seats for a woman.
Takeo glanced at the man in good shape and nodded lightly before lowering his head deeply.
“Excuse me.
Thank you for setting up such a place.
I am Takeo Elvis Kitamizato. ”
Takeshi enters the room and stands next to the free seat and says:
“My name is Dora Bassett and I run this store.
Thank you for your hard work.
Please sit down first. ”
"Yes, excuse me."
When Takeo sat down, the racks also sat down.
"Excuse me."
Bassett also sits.
"Once again, I'm sorry for the sudden request."
Takeo lowered his head lightly.
"No, Viscount, we're used to it."
Please use it anytime so we can adjust the schedule. ”
"I would appreciate it if you could say that."
Actually, this is the first time that a store like this has offered such a service.
It's very interesting, isn't it? "
"Is this your first time...?"
"Yes, my wife stopped me."
I haven't had a chance to go to work before. ”
"Is that so?"
My shop is used by wealthy people, thankfully.
Whatever you say, we take good care of the staff's health, injuries, and illnesses. "
"Is that... also from...?"
Takeo asks.
"Yes, Viscount."
Because of this kind of occupation... women from all over the country come to the entertainment district (here), but we do not hire people who are involved in crime.
In addition, our shop teaches not only reading and writing, but also some local affairs and policies. "
"... is that because you can't listen to your customers?"
"Yes, I can't answer properly without some knowledge."
This is definitely a gateway to diversity... There is, but there are also customers who come to ask for something else.
Many people come here many times. ”
I see.
Is there any problem with this request? "
"No problem, Viscount."
I don't talk outside the store about what I saw and heard here.
Its credibility is great.
Therefore, everyone is free to come to the store.
Whether you are a student of the Royal Academy, a student of the Magician College, or a high-ranking official of the Royal Castle... nothing you see or hear here leaks.
Every clerk in this shop is thorough about that. ”
"... I see.
That's reassuring. ”
Takeshi says, "Ah, can't you buy the information?"
"By the way, this time we are talking to 5 students."
"Yes, Elvis, Alderson, and Bold are the two sons and their companions."
I asked two of them to come with me, but is there a problem? ”
"I can secure 10 people for the amount I can get, and I will make it a holiday on that day."
Other people do chores and spend time studying, so there are no problems.
But it's about the clerk who attaches it to the students. Do you have any preferences for women? "
"... how about that?"
I think I'll leave that to you... "
Takeshi says while thinking about it.
"What I'm thinking right now is that we are looking for a candidate who is not too big or too slender for the Viscount's brother-in-law."
There is no information for the other 4 people, so... we have selected them. "
... thank you for your consideration.
So... I think it's okay.
You can also educate me, right? "
"Yes, they are good at dealing with each other this time, so there is no problem for students to experience."
Please come to the store with peace of mind. ”
Thank you very much.
Takeo lowered his head.
“When can we implement it?
I don't mind tomorrow. ”
Bassett will tell you.
"What? Tomorrow?"
“Yes, tomorrow is fine.”
"... then please do it tomorrow."
It's probably okay. ”
"I was awed.
Well then, please come after the evening bell tomorrow. "
"I understand.
I will ask you again tomorrow. ”
Takeo was going to take his seat.
Not in the room since Takeo left.
"Please contact Erika-sama."
(...) As scheduled, it will be implemented tomorrow evening at the bell section.
You can use your usual method of communication. ”
Bassett tells the woman behind him.
"I was awed.
We will carry out the posting.
How would you like to contact His Majesty? "
"... let's ask Erica-sama."
This is not the business of the 3rd Intelligence Squad, so I'm not obliged to report it. "
Yes.
Even so, who is Erika of the Third Prince family?
You've noticed the Third Intelligence Squad (we), haven't you? "
"Well... you must have noticed the Third Intelligence Squad (we) by chance."
Besides, the 3rd Intelligence Squad (we) are not just prostitutes... I don't think they understand everything. "
The Third Intelligence Squad (ours) hasn't been fully informed in the first place.
"Only His Majesty can know."
“Yes, then I will be in touch.”
A woman nodded to Bassett's words.
