After finishing his investigation, Souta went to the surface. He went to the pub, the meeting place of the three.
He was alone. Alice and Eztein haven't arrived yet, so he decided to listen to the rumors first.
"Hey, have you heard about it?"
"What?"
"The news!"
"It's circulating fast."
"The guards have captured the culprit."
"For real?!"
"Yeah, a lot of people are talking about it for now."
"Huuuu~ I'm glad that they captured the culprit. I'm afraid that I will get cursed soon, for real."
The drunkards were talking nonstop, and Souta picked up a lot of interesting rumors. The one that caught his attention was the culprit.
The guards captured the culprit?
It felt impossible, so he wanted to verify if it was true or not.
'I should wait for the others to arrive,' Souta said inwardly before he drank a mug of beer.
