“We know about that accident too. I am sure that it involved those two people.”
“That’s right. Knowing those two, you’ll realize how dangerous it is to be involved with them. Don’t worry about us, worry about your safety first because you are far more in danger now.”
The next day, I told the others staying at the inn what had happened yesterday and what I had talked about with the Margrave and the Guild Master.
Of course, I omitted the confidential part.
However, everyone seemed to think that yesterday’s accident had something to do with those two people, and on the contrary, they were worried about us.
It’s just a coincidence that we got together like this, but I’m quite happy to be able to work with good people.
By the way, today we are originally scheduled to clean and inventory a certain store.
When we all went to the store, we saw a face that we had seen somewhere.
“Ah, that’s the person who rode in the carriage yesterday!”
“Oh, isn’t this the cat-eared little girl? The blonde lady too, thank you for saving me.”
The cheerful uncle in front of us is the one who had been injured while riding in the carriage yesterday. He greeted us cheerfully. It looked like his injury had healed well, and he even raised his hand lightly to us.
“Are you feeling better?”
“No problem at all. In fact, my back pain and stiff shoulders have healed, and I’m in my top form. Gahaha”
Sue was worried about the uncle, so she asked him how he was doing, but apparently, when Sue treated him yesterday, his other injuries were healed so he is in a pretty good mood.
Time is ticking so we start working right away after that short conversation.
That said, there’s a few of us and we were getting used to cleaning, so we got to work quickly. Each of us doing our part and coordinating well made the work go easier.

“Oh, you guys are really here.”
“Thank you for saving me yesterday. Please take this with you.”
Shortly after noon, some of the people who we rescued from the carriage accident yesterday came to find us in this store when they heard that we were working here today.
In particular, Sue, who was very active in the treatment, was given various souvenirs.
“Can I really have it?”
“Of course! It’s all thanks to you that I’m able to move around with my limbs intact. This is just a token of my gratitude.”
“If we were treated normally, we’ll be charged a ridiculously high treatment fee. I’d feel bad for you treating me for free.”
I see. Even if it’s an emergency, you usually have to pay a lot of money for treatment. Moreover, there was a possibility that it would not only be a broken bone, so these gifts could be said to be a cheaper price to pay for a thank you.
“I’ve also brought sweets for the cat-eared little girl.”
“Right. The cat-eared little girl was also very active yesterday.”
“Yey!”
Shiro was also active in lifting the carriage by herself, so her face was remembered by the people around at that time.
Well, it should be as expected I guess. That’s because a carriage that was too heavy for more than one adult to lift was lifted by a cat-eared little girl all by herself.
Of course, I feel that Shiro’s cheerful personality that people like is also a big factor.
In this way, while cleaning up the shop, we received various things.
Let’s just say that this is a fair reward for yesterday’s hard work.
