But I don't know how to do carpentry, so this is a very serious problem before me.
"So as expected, the only road in front of me is a food store."
Sighing, he was going to take stock of the food in the warehouse to see what he could make.
But just as I stood up, a rather unpleasant smell filled the air.
Sadness, anguish and hatred.
Wordlessly condensing magic power on my left hand, I looked towards the door of the store.
A figure wearing a cloak stood in that place.
The light that came through outlined a figure that was not tall, and could even be considered a bit thin.
"Guest, do you want to be a guest or stay in a hotel?" At this time, you should do your duty more diligently.
"What does it mean to hit the top?" Under the cloak, there was an unexpectedly childish voice.
······I just imitate the casual remarks in TV dramas.
As a result, the atmosphere of the Longmen Inn that was created just now was ruined.
"Dajian means eating."
"Topping."
He walked over, found an empty seat in the store and sat down.
Putting the menu that I had already prepared in front of him, I asked: "Are you going to eat——"
The moment before I finished speaking, a sharp gust of wind penetrated the cloak and blew onto my face in advance. A flash of silver flashed fleetingly in front of me.
too slow.
Although I was defeated by the Demon King, I am still a brave man.
Having a useless talent doesn't mean I'm weak.
So the moment he drew the knife, I reached out my hand without hesitation and hit his wrist.
A small knife clattered to the ground.
I first stretched out my foot and kicked the knife out, then turned sideways to avoid his punch. It was like magic that I turned around with the power of dodge, and pushed his free hand down. behind him, and finally pressed him firmly onto the table.
His body was quite thin, even skinnier than expected.
"You better give me a reason not to send you to the Imperial Inspector, kid."
Yes, this guy is a demon.
And he looks like an immature kid.
Although I don’t know why he attacked me, I believe that no one can face the murderer with a smile after being attacked.
The regional investigator named Caroline hadn't left far yet. She might still be asking questions in the village now. If I yelled, she would probably come running over.
After I held him down, this guy didn't move for a long time.
Just when I thought he was dead, he finally spoke.
"Then kill me."
······What?
No, what I said is no different than if you died.
It's just one more step in the middle.
Something's slightly off.
I frowned, then took off his hat, revealing long fiery red hair.
Fiery red hair.
long hair.
Long hair.
——Wait a minute, is there something wrong with this? ?
I held his shoulders and pushed him against the wall. Only then did I realize what was wrong.
this! special! What! yes! indivual! female! of!
Sorry, I just used all the personal pronouns wrong? !
The rather delicate face was covered with black stains, and there was no highlight in the emerald green eyes.
It's like losing hope in life.
I've often been puzzled by the description of eyes losing their highlights in novels, but only now do I really realize what that means.
Like a zombie.
Although alive, the soul is dead.
Pupils do not make changes to the outside world, and complex emotions cannot be expressed through the eyes.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?"
It seemed that after the attack just now, she had no intention of moving again.
What should we do?
There was always some anger in my heart, but after seeing her like this, those things stopped for some reason.
You can't just ignore it and let her fend for herself, right?
"Tsk, what a troublesome thing."
If only I were a true warrior.
I am a true brave, and my heart will be filled with hatred for the demons and the desire for love and peace, and then I will raise my sword and chop it down directly.
Cut the grass without leaving roots.
But sadly I'm not.
Until a few years ago, I was still an innocent young man who watched TV shows and ate instant noodles in my dormitory. Even after coming to a different world and experiencing all kinds of ups and downs, some things cannot be changed so easily.
Just like it is now.
Loli, how could you do it so easily?
Especially the outsider type.
There are two small horns on its head, but I'm not sure what its race is.
I don’t have an in-depth and systematic research on the demons like the Holy See.
It’s better to stay for now——
But I don't feel at ease if I really just leave it like this. After all, you still have to listen to the old saying that you must be on guard against others.
So I found an empty room upstairs and threw her in, and then released a restriction in the room that made it absolutely impossible to escape and blocked her breath.
Finally went downstairs.
Sitting behind the counter absentmindedly, thinking that if Aidolu came tonight, she would leave this mess to her to solve.
But having said that, does my behavior now count as prison play?
After thinking about it, if it were on earth, a lot of people would immediately shout "FBI OPEN DOOR" and rush in, right?
But unfortunately, this is not the earth, but a different world.
In other words, there is no FBI at all——
"Excuse me--"
Imperial District Investigator Caroline stood at the door.
"Did you see any strange people passing by here just now?"
A cold sweat broke out on his forehead immediately.
"St-weird person?" he said awkwardly, rubbing the back of his head, "I... the strangest person I have seen today is you! Miss Caroline."
"W-what!?" Caroline seemed to be irritated by my out-of-the-blue words in a hurry, "I'm the inspector of the Empire!"
Sorry, I forgot about this.
Now I am a commoner, not the brave person I used to be.
In other words, my behavior just now was probably to criticize Jingcha in front of Jingcha.
And unlike on Earth, the investigator here is a noble, which means she can arrest me without any burden.
"Well, I'm really sorry about that-"
Just when I was about to give in and apologize, an unexpected voice rang out.
"Are you the investigator of the empire? It just so happens that I have something to ask you."
"Hey, please, who are you?"
The girl standing at the door showed a confused expression to the people behind her.
