The formula that emerged, secret information = valuable = money.
I thought maybe from the statement of the Business Sister that the farthest thing from the word money money piety, but I didn't expect it to be a bonanza.
You don't have a swollen forehead, do you?
She hits the floor, and although the damage is minimal, what hurts hurts.
Aided by a brave body, but not wanting to miss out on the profit, the sister prompts her next suggestion: ”Let's change the place.
”You'll be seen here, let's change the place.
”Wakarimashita~
I follow her as she stutters along with a sheet.
And strangely enough, I don't pass anyone on her chosen path.
It's as if she knows where everyone is at this hour of the day.
”We should be okay here for a while. Now let's talk about the money.
”Straight Death ......
”Of course. I missed out on some extra income the other day. ...... How could I miss out on a second chance?
It seems that I arrived at a room for storing laundered sheets.
There is a basket of laundered sheets and the sister who put them there looks at me.
I regretted that I was asking the wrong person for advice, because I felt that her eyes were turning to gold coins.
However, it's not a good time to leave her alone, so I will naturally tell you the story I saw earlier.
I'm sure the sister is employed by someone else outside of this country, so she can help you if you tell her about this.
Are you a ...... fake brave person?
”Yes, I saw clearly.
”...... isn't about the money,
”Oh, it's a money-making story!
Will you lend me a hand?
This business sister, who can expect no justice, is visibly disappointed to hear this story.
At last, she thought it was a problem.
There it is! This story is not a secret!
Don't you know? It costs a lot of money to sell information, doesn't it?
”What!
”Apparently you don't know. Then for free, for free! I told you twice because it's important. Again, I'll give it to you for free. Information is only valuable when it is corroborated. When it comes to this kind of important information, of course it is expensive to verify it. The people who make money from information are in the business of weighing the risks and the rewards.
”? What does that mean, Des?
”This information is valuable, but it's not going to make you money right away. The risk is too high.
! That is, I am.
”You risked nothing by giving me information for free. Good thing, because if I made a deal with 'him' and told the sisters walking around, you'd be a fake.
Shun and I are depressed.
It didn't work out like a drama, after all.
I was desperate to do something, and this is what I got.
Exhaling, the business sister shows signs of dismissing the story.
...... sory
”What are you apologizing for?
”Huh?
If it costs you money, sell the information in a way that doesn't cost you anything.
I wonder.
I thought this sister said that if there was no bread, I should have the cake.
It sounded like if it didn't make money, then it would make money.
But you just said it costs money to sell the information yourself.
We'll back it up and sell it. You'll get the truth about this fake brave man, and I'll make money off it.
The problem is that the information I saw is too fragmented and the information itself is valuable.
That would make it a lot easier to talk.
I just need to find out the details myself, and it won't cost me any money.
That has its risks, of course.
Would you mind if I did the rest, sir?
Knowing this, the sisters have approached me to take care of the bill with this information.
There's no need for me to cross a dangerous bridge.
The counterfeit heroes should be able to minimize the damage if I stay calm.
But
”That's okay! I'm Gambalkara!
When I couldn't do anything like that, I ran away from the dance, and I wanted to do my best.
I was there at that time.
Then when will you work hard and not here?
I'm going with you!
Then I'll rely on your help.
”OK, you got it!
Then let's go see the fake brave first.
”Wait a minute, I'm Amelia! What's your name?
If you choose to act together, then you have to know each other's names when you call each other.
So I introduced myself like this, but she frowned in disgust.
...... Please call me Anne.
”All right! Nice to meet you, Anne!
You just said your name.
When I think about it, it's been a long time since I've called you by your name like this.
I was happy and cheerful to read his name, but why did he look at me so delicately?
Don't mind me, I just don't like the name very much.
”? I think it's a good name.
...... Okay, let's go this time.
”Oh, wait!
Run a little to walk next to her to walk next to her as she stutters off.
He said he was going back to his room, so I'm going to my room?
That's probably just a side note, because my day job is my kind of people. He's probably contacting other brave men and women to gather information, which I can predict from what I've just heard. So I have a rough idea of where he might be.
?”?
”Beings like us basically jostle each other. They basically jostle each other, keeping close to each other and hopping around like bats. Gathering together in a small group is not the best way to gather information, because it's not a good place to gather some people and talk.
The diner?
”No.
I'm trying to make a prediction based on Anne's quizzing words about the destination, but I don't think the fake hero will return to the place where he was just now.
Anne denies this idea.
'Common room, sir.
There are common areas on the first and second floors of the quarters where the brave men sleep.
You don't have to go to the dining room to get a cup of tea and a crowd.
And there's the flow of people.
That's where he'll be, Ann says.
I wondered if he was sure, and Ann walked past the downstairs common room as if her business was beyond the common room.
I walked past a little later and did the same.
Is that him?
”Yes.
And the prediction was correct.
He was in one of several groups, a group of four men and four women, and he was in one of them.
Ann, whom I had told you about, guessed from the description I had given you, and she didn't turn around, didn't stop, and went straight ahead, calling out to me when I caught up with her.
Then we'll keep an eye out.
”How?
It's easy, just do your job.
She handed me cleaning supplies with a smile and said she'd have you help her too.
Huh?
Isn't this a chore that's being forced on you?
