Knock. Knock.
“Everyone, dinner is ready.”
“Understood. We’ll head there right away.”
After spending some time in a needlessly luxurious room, I heard the shady man’s voice.
Here we looked at each other. Our strategy is to cherish life.
We headed to the cafeteria on the first floor.
“You are free to get more bread, so please let me know.”
““Y-yes……””
What was served in the dining room was a one-plate sumptuous dish.
After the suspicious smiling man left the table, Sue and I exchanged glances. Even if we don’t have a good nose like Shiro or Fran, we can tell right away.
“It smells like medicine. There’s a faint scent of it.”
“That’s right. Normal people might not be able to tell, but as adventurers, we can tell right away.”
There is definitely something in the dish.
Shiro and Fran are already frowning and looking disgusted. Horn also seemed to notice something. Above all, the fact that the three of them are not happy at all even though it looks sumptous is proof that there’s something on this dish.
Alright, let me secretly activate the appraisal magic.
Whoa, seriously?
“It’s laced with sleeping pills.”
“So, it’s safe to say that that suspicious man is involved in the robbery.”
Sue and I leaned in close and whispered to each other. This inn is pretty insane in many ways.
However, we can’t have dinner at this rate, so I made a move.
“I’m sorry, the children are tired and sleepy. Can I bring our meal to our room?”
“Oh dear, they certainly don’t seem to be in good spirits. Shall I bring it to your room?”
“No, no, it’s okay. I’ll just bring some for myself and my girlfriend. I’ll feed the kids something later.”
“(Grin) Okay, okay.”
Hey, why are you grinning again?
Does he think that children don’t need sleeping pills? With that in mind, Sue and I returned to the room with plates in our hands.
“Ha, I’m tired. Why am I so tired when I just went to the cafeteria?”
“Well, it can’t be helped. I don’t think they’d sneak in drugs in the food.”
“““Haguhaguhagu”””
Sue and I sat limp on the sofa and looked at the sleeping pills on the table. Next to me and Sue, there are Shiro and the others eating the sandwiches I made.
Perhaps they are quite hungry so they are gobbling up the sandwich. Ao is eating a sandwich with them. By the way, Sue and I have already finished eating our sandwich.
“Sigh…. Well, there’s no other option. Let’s contact the soldiers.”
“You’re right. It’s better than nothing.”
Sue resigned as she sighed along with me.
I prepared a piece of paper and started writing a letter.
