genius prince vol 8 : chapter 16
It's faster to do it myself."
"be good, let me try once."
"fine....."
Wayne is proud and Ninym is shy. Franya blushed slightly as she felt like she had seen something wrong with the two esteemed people's intimacy that would normally be hidden.
“Let's see... ...... Oh, I hope I'm not interrupting anything.”
"Also you're heavy, Franya."
"Oh, I am not heavy."
And then we'd be arguing about things like.
"Hey, you two."
"huh ?"
Not surprisingly, Wayne was in front of her before she knew it.
"What are you doing there? If you want to come in, hurry up and come in."
"Yes"
Wayne wouldn't say so. Franya enters the room with a jerky feeling. Ninym had already moved from the front of the mirror stand to the corner of the room, and when Franya looked at her, she responded with a small smile.
"So what happened so early in the morning? Franya"
"Well, I was thinking of confirming today's schedule."
Wayne nodded without worrying, even though he answered with a muddy mood.
"That's right. I'm verifying the material in the mansion. Franya has to attend the party instead me. Ninym is investigating where to meet tonight."
"Tonight's meeting?"
Franya tilted her head at the unfamiliar information. Wayne, with an understanding, said "Come to think of it, you slept early yesterday, actually the messenger of Lord Tigris came last night. So tonight, I'm going to have a discussion with the third person ."
Franya also had heard that he was going to have a secret meeting with Tigris at some point. However, when she saw it, she felt uneasy in her heart.
" Is my brother going to be all right?"
"It's dangerous, but it's worth it."
" I'll check for anything suspicious as well."
In the words of Wayne and Ninym, Franya nodded a little. It did not dispel her uneasiness. But if these two were willing to do it, then she just had to trust them.
"That's a the general plan. I've made a list of the key figures in the party that Franya attends, so take a look at it. Is there anything else on your mind?"
Franya shook her head. Wayne gave her a small nod and patted her head.
"I asked for it today. I know you may have your do worries, but I'm sure you'll do a great job.”
"Oh ... of course, brother! Leave it to me!"
Franya face lit up. The energy that had flown out of her body was once again surging up. She was a can-do princess today, she thought, and she was ready to take on the challenge.
"The Well then Ninym, let's continue."
"Oh, is that okay?"
"I was in the middle of it......Huh?
Wayne looks suspicious when he sees his sister starting to hesitate
"What's wrong, Franya"
"No!”
Franya shook her head in a hurry and grabbed Nanaki's arm by her side.
"I'm done talking anyway, so I'm going now!...!"
After saying this, Franya left the room like a gale.
"......what was that?"
Wayne tilted his head to the mysterious attitude of her sister, and Ninim smiled a little at the appearance of the two.
( Now)
-----------------------
A change from the smiley act of Wayne and Franya. Ninym, had set out as planned and was still walking soundlessly through the quiet city.
Her fast-paced destination, wearing her hood to the depths of her eyes, is the secret meeting place tonight. There are many things to look out for, not to mention the simple route, whether there are any traps or suspicious points in the area, and what to do with the escape route in the unlikely event.
(It was just up ahead, as I recall.)
Lucian. When we first left the mansion where we had been staying, the streets were quiet, but we could still feel people's lives, but this faded as we approached the outskirts of the city.
(I heard that lucian has been expanding as the city has grown, resulting in several ungovernable areas, and this area seems to be one of them.)
Some places have turned into slums and are inhabited by bastards. She dyes her hair and wears a hood, but she is a woman and a Fulham. To avoid getting caught up in the extra turmoil, Ninym will head to her destination, paying attention to her surroundings.
Eventually she arrived in front of a large abandoned house
It must have been a fine mansion originally. But now it's been exposed to the wind and rain and it's tattered. It seems that the building abandoned due to the misfire remains without being demolished because there are burnt marks and carbonized parts on a part of the exterior.
(At least I can't find anything like this around me.)
There are only stones and weeds. It seems certain that the building has not been touched by human hands for a long time. Then, the next step was to go inside the house. Ninym quietly steps into the house through the doorless entrance and inspects the inside.
(Starting from the entrance hall of the atrium, passages, doors, stairs, chandeliers on the left and right ...)
Just like the outside of the mansion, the inside was in a state of disrepair. There are almost no furnishings left, and even if they were left, they are all half-destroyed. It's just an abandoned house.
This makes it difficult to conduct an investigation. In an orderly room, an unnatural place may appear to float in the air, but in such a rough condition, it was impossible to look for anything unnatural.
Normally, we would like to have a long time or a lot of manpower, but the secret meeting is to be held tonight, and by its nature, if we mobilize too many people, the people around us might notice that we are doing something suspicious.
"That said, you can't just make a low noise."
Ninym gently looks down. It reflects the footprints of people mixed in with the accumulated dust. As you get used to it, you will be able to read the other person's intention unexpectedly even with these traces alone. Footprints that have come in search of an inn that surpasses the rain and wind, footprints that wander in search of valuable objects, and brand new footprints that, like you, investigate the interior of the mansion.
(Sir Tigris or a third person did the preliminary research first)
If you think about it, it's natural. And they would have struggled with less time and effort. Then I have no choice but to do as much as I can. Ninym enthusiastically started the investigation.
At the same time, Wayne is scrutinizing the information and Ninym is conducting a preliminary survey of the planned secret meeting site.
--------------------------
"Franya ..."
Franya was at a party in a mansion, breathing heavily.
"Are you okay?"
"Somehow ... but it's more than I imagined."
Franya responds powerlessly to Nanaki's words. These parties are held everywhere in the city, big and small, before and after the Holy Meeting.
