Chapter 761 Black Hand
"Wait a minute, Aqua!"
Huihui suddenly called Aqua and said, "What did you just say about the characteristics of the criminal!?"
"Eh? Um...he's wearing a long black robe that covers his entire body, what's wrong?" Aqua looked confused.
Huihui didn't answer. She looked at Xiaolin and said, "Xiaolin, speaking of the black robe..."
"Conforming to the Crimson Demon Clan's aesthetic standards is totally irrelevant now." Kobayashi rolled his eyes. This little loli is particularly obsessed with clothes and the Crimson Demon Clan likes black and red, so she was so excited.
“——Not really!”
Huihui denied loudly, “It does fit the aesthetics of the Crimson Demon Clan, but that’s not what we’re talking about now! Speaking of the mysterious person in the black robe who brought the formula, that’s the same thing, right?”
"Oh, yeah! People who go to Wiz's store wear the same outfit."
Xiaolin suddenly remembered.
At first, the formula was indeed handed over to them by Sato Kazuma, but later it was handed over personally by the man in black robe, which means that that guy was the mastermind?
"So, the man in the black robe is in the same group as Wiz!"
Aqua asserted.
"If they were in the same group, would Wiz have specifically told us the criminal's information?"
"That kid, he's a little off the mark on some things."
"It's just that the purchase of goods is a little off the mark, but in other aspects, it's much more reliable than you."
"That's not the case!"
Kobayashi rolled his eyes in annoyance, which naturally earned him an angry yell from the stupid goddess.
Wiz is good at everything except business, and would be a perfect candidate to be a wife.
"Stop arguing."
Darkness stopped the stupid goddess from jumping on Krillin and said to everyone, "Anyway, it's better to ask Wiz first."
"Yes, go quickly."
----
They arrived at Wiz's magic tool shop, pushed open the door and walked into the store.
"welcome."
The weak lich girl had a bright smile on her face when she saw them. If her skin was not too pale, she would be almost the same as an ordinary girl.
And Kobayashi kept warning the stupid goddess.
"Listen carefully, Aqua. You are not allowed to jump on her. Absolutely!"
"hiss----"
"Hey, what's wrong? Lady Aqua looks angry."
Being stared at by the stupid goddess, the weak lich girl took several steps back in fear. The fact that she had been bullied by her was still vivid in her mind.
"sacred--"
"So, stop it!"
Kobayashi couldn't bear it and slapped the stupid goddess on the head.
“It hurts so much~~~~!”
She screamed and squatted down.
Wiz saw this scene and asked curiously: "Um, what on earth is this..."
“I’m really sorry for scaring you.” Darkness apologized to her first, then said, “I came to you suddenly and made such a fuss.”
"No, I'm waiting for you too. I've received it."
Wiz smiled and handed over something.
Still two recipes.
One sheet contained the recipe for the clothes commissioned by the nobles, and the other sheet… looked like it contained Vanir’s notes, which still said: Anyway, if we do this sheet first, we can solve the immediate problem. But the fundamental problem cannot be solved, so we need to take our time with that.
The nature of the problem?
what exactly is it?
To be honest, Xiaolin hates the Riddler, but Vanir can see the more distant future, so he can be the Riddler to his heart's content. Really, I'm tired of it.
The stupid goddess even grabbed the collar of the weak lich girl angrily.
"So you are the criminal!"
"Eh, prisoner? Wait a minute, Aqua-sama, I don't know anything! What does prisoner mean?"
Wiz begged for mercy.
“This is more complicated.” Darkness easily saved Wiz and said, “We think the criminal who framed us is either a demon or an undead.”
"So, Aqua-sama is the one who would doubt me..."
Wiz wiped the sweat from his forehead after breathing a sigh of relief.
Xiaolin looked at her and said, "I'll ask directly, Wiz, you are not a criminal, right?"
"I have no reason to frame anyone." Wiz said as a matter of course.
Darkness continued, “What about Vanir?”
"Mr. Banier probably isn't either. He's treating Mr. Kobayashi as a trading partner now."
Wiz shook his head, indicating that such a situation could not happen.
Indeed. If Xiaolin died, then Vanir would not be able to obtain information about various commodities, and he would definitely not be able to obtain items from other worlds.
"By the way, this recipe is..."
"Well, the man in the robe brought it last time."
It was the same as last time. That guy seemed to know what the nobles wanted and prepared the recipe. The nobles had clearly just ordered them to make clothes not long ago, but they knew it in advance...
Xiaolin glanced at Darkness, then asked the weak lich girl, "Wiz, can you tell me more about this person? Any details are fine."
"That...I'm sorry."
Wiz shook his head in embarrassment. It wasn't that he couldn't reveal the information about the guests. In this case, it was possible that they were deliberately framing Xiaolin and the others. They could already be classified as criminal suspects. But the problem wasn't there, but -
"That person was just like last time. He didn't say anything, but brought the recipe..."
"Before, Vanir said that this man was wearing a black robe. Is that true?"
"That's true. But the robe was pulled so low that I couldn't see his face."
Same as the information obtained.
Aqua also said that the guy was wearing a black robe and his face and figure could not be seen clearly.
Xiao Lin thought for a moment and continued to ask: "Could he be an undead or a demon?"
“Probably not?” Darkness suddenly asked.
"why?"
"If it was the Undead or the Demons, Aqua would have noticed it right away, right?"
“Indeed.”
Aqua nodded.
No, no, no, you just thought of it? No, no, no, didn’t I just think of it too? Xiao Lin covered his head in pain, wondering if it was because he had been with these guys for too long that his brain couldn’t work anymore.
"that……"
Wiz raised his hand with difficulty and said, "Could it be that the person who brought the formula and the person who invaded the noble mansion..."
"Ah, probably the same person."
Kobayashi did not hide the facts.
Darkness continued, “Then, in order to prove our innocence, we must catch this person…”
"Well, even if we catch him, there are still other problems." Kobayashi rolled his eyes at Aqua beside him, "It's all the fault of this stupid goddess!"
"So, I've apologized many times!"
Aqua yelled in displeasure.
"Well, although I don't know the exact situation, I will do my best to help you." Wiz was very helpful at this time. "If there is anything I can help with, please let me know."
"Oh, that's a great help!"
Not only is Wiz extremely powerful, she is also the proprietress of the magic tool shop. Even if she is only in the store, as long as the mysterious man in the black robe appears again, she can subdue him on the spot.
"Oh right! Speaking of help, I remember now!" Unexpectedly, just as Wiz offered to help, she shouted, "I only deciphered part of the text on that black slate last time. Can I take another look at it this time?"
"No problem. It would be a great help if we could find out anything else. But the slate is in the mansion now..."
Xiaolin was embarrassed and wanted to refuse.
At this moment, Huihui suddenly took out another tablet from her own and said, "It's okay, I brought it. Please take a look."
"Thank you. Let me have a look then."
Wiz took the slate with a smile.
"Hey, wait!" Xiao Lin saw this and subconsciously shouted, "Why did you bring it here?"
"The great mage plus the mysterious black slate." The little girl posed strangely and said, "How about it? When you hear this combination, do you feel like shaking all over?"
In other words, carrying such a heavy thing is just to look cool...
I can't understand the Crimson Demons' train of thought.
Darkness looked at the Lich Lady who was reading the slate attentively and asked, “Wiz, how is it going?”
“Well…, no.” Wiz shook her head helplessly and said with a regretful tone: “The deteriorated part can’t be seen because the words have weathered… Wait, there are very small words written here, I think I can see it.”
"Is it the description of the curse? I've already read that."
When the curse appeared, Kobayashi and the others observed the stone slab again and learned about the curse of the stone slab, and were also very troubled by it.
"No, wait."
Xiaolin interrupted Darkness and said, "I didn't see this last time, Wiz, read it."
“Well, about the supplement to the curse… the curse is on the person with the strongest desire when using the stone tablet… that’s what it says.” Wiz read it out softly. As expected, it was a supplement to the curse.
So, don’t write such an important thing in such a small size!
Do you want to play a trick on someone?
"And I noticed one thing." Wiz raised the slate and pointed to a place for everyone to see. "The words about the curse effect are newer than the other words."
"Indeed, there is basically no degradation."
Darkness came to a conclusion after reading it carefully.
"It feels a bit strange that the words on the same slate are so different."
Wiz was a little weird.
“Well, let’s not think about that for now.” Xiaolin interrupted her and said, “Compared to this, the part that Wiz found just now is a hint about the object of the curse, right?”
When using the stone slab, the person with the strongest desire will be cursed. So what happened last time when I commissioned clothes...
Xiaolin carefully recalled what happened at that time.
-
"Flat-chested, little lolita, flat-chested, little lolita..."
The first thing that came to mind was Megumin, who kept mumbling with a grim look on her face. She looked gloomy, as if she had suffered a great blow.
Aqua comforted her with some fear.
“Hey, Huihui, is he okay? What happened?”
“During my speech just now, I was teased by the people in the town.” Darkness touched the little loli’s head.
Huihui threw herself into her arms, feeling even more aggrieved.
"Flat-chested, flat-chested... wuwuwu..."
“Meihui. I think your speech about the idea of flat chests was great.” Aqua opened her arms and said with a sacred goddess-like posture: “Flat chests are a symbol of purity, which is really great. So, Meihui, be proud of the flat chests that only exist now! Appreciate the purity contained in the flat chests that we don’t have!”
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"
However, the silly goddess's comfort not only had no effect at all, but also made the little Loli burst into tears, and her crying was full of sad emotions.
“Calm down, Megumin!”
Darkness quickly hugged the distressed little loli and said to the stupid goddess, “Aqua, stop talking.”
"Hey, why? I was trying my best to comfort her."
“I think this is finishing off the opponent.”
Kobayashi complained to stupid Aqua.
"Forget it, let's talk about Huihui later. It's about time to get started." Xiaolin took out the stone slab and the materials for making clothes. "Come on, it's time to work."
"If you make the clothes and give them as evidence, you can be acquitted this time."
"This way I can drink bubbles whenever I want, and I can also relax in the mansion."
Darkness and Aqua also had obvious smiles on their faces.
Isn't it times like this that we work so hard?
"Aqua, stop thinking about being lazy."
"I've been working a lot lately, so what's wrong with wanting to be healed? Oh, Xiaolin! Can you give me a massage later? I need this kind of healing urgently!"
"Okay, okay, let's talk about it later. Let's make clothes first."
"We agreed? We agreed, huh? If you lie, you'll have to swallow a thousand needles!"
"I know, I know. I will massage you until you are satisfied. Now concentrate on making clothes."
I'm tired of the repetitive stupid goddess.
That’s right, they didn’t notice this at that time——
Back to the present.
Megumin nodded and said, “At that time, the one with the strongest desire was Aqua.”
“But the person who was cursed was Huihui…” Kobayashi touched his chin.
"Hey, me?"
The stupid goddess looks stupid.
Darkness asked curiously, “But now, Aqua isn’t doing anything strange.”
“Wait a minute, Darkness and Megumin are the same as usual.” Krillin looked at the stupid goddess and said, “This guy might also become strange due to some opportunity.”
“I feel uncomfortable with this statement.”
Aqua hugged her shoulders angrily.
“Completely the opposite of the usual Aqua, right?” Megumin looked at her. “So… Aqua, can I take the bubble wine hidden under the bed?”
“No! Huihui is still young! And I can’t sleep at night if I don’t hold the child!” Aqua refused angrily.
Darkness said, “Aqua, you can have a leisurely life starting tomorrow. You don’t have to do anything. Just sit there and do nothing.”
"May I?!"
Aqua shouted excitedly, "In that case, I might as well make it my life goal not to leave my bed! Please take care of it, Kobayashi. By the way, the high priest doesn't need to go to the bathroom, so don't worry about that."
"Just like usual."
"It's the same as usual."
"Yeah, same as usual."
