155 Sorry, Ya Lost Me. (2/2)

”You're the brat Marco hired, right?”

”… Marco?”

Do I know a Marco?

”Don't play dumb!! Yer the one those guys called out!!”

The man grabbed me by the collar and looked mad.

”Eh, please, I don…”

I really don't know a Marco. People are misunderstanding things a lot today.

I made a stealthy glance at Mr. Zack, and and he just gave me a nod.

What's that supposed to mean? Why did you nod, man?

”Quiet down.”

Someone put a hand on the angry man's shoulder.

”Boss…”

It was the gray haired handsome man I saw in the cellar. Their leader.

”I am Maximilian. I run things around here. Five men have recently approached you for a task, no?”

”Uh…”

Oh. The drug and kidnap the princess mission.

Yeah, they all suddenly got holes in their chests so mission failed I guess.

”Those five were mysteriously killed last night.”

”A…!”

Wait, am I a suspect?

”You will tell us everything.”

Said Maximilian in a tone that won't take no for an answer.

”Y-yes…”

And so I nodded in a.s.sent. And with my shoulder still held, I was about to be taken away.

Which is when,

”Move it.”

One of the Maximilian's men shoved Miss Rose aside as she was standing blankly in the way.

”Ah…” I voiced worriedly.

”Hm? Do you know him?”

”…No.” I shook my head as she hid away her face. ”I don't know him.”

”Move along.”

I was then pushed to go wherever they would take me.

Behind me, I could feel her gaze on me the whole way.
