A Regressor's Guide to the Frozen Apocalypse-Chapter 41: Clue (1)
Chapter 41: Clue (1)
"Now please tell me, are you in or out of the trade?"
"Of course we are in. We know how shitty the world has become, Mr Merchant, believe us. A dear friend of mine survived by eating his mate, I killed him with my own hands, I couldn’t let such scum live!"
At that moment, Light shook his head and said, as if without emotion, "There is no need to talk about such dishonourable men. If you give me a clue that will allow me to take my revenge, I will provide you with enough food for a hundred people for tens of days."
He didn’t expect to find this eagle-symbolised group so fast, but he knew very well that he was willing to do anything with the possibility that he could get even a little closer to his revenge.
"Is---I mean, do you mean what you’re saying?" Olivia looked surprised, but she was smiling more than anything else, it was clear that this news gave them hope.
"Yes, just give me some information that can only be true and everything will be yours. My name is Arah and I swear to you that you will have it all instantly."
George nodded at these words and then said, "Please tell me what you know."
Light nodded his head after realising that they had reached an agreement and started to speak calmly:
"The first person’s name is Percy. He is middle-aged, male, almost as tall as you, has a scar over his eye and is of normal weight."
At these words, George and Olivia began to think. There didn’t seem to be anyone like that in the group, but at that very moment one of the people in the room stepped forward and spoke:
"Forgive my rudeness, but did his leather jacket say Martin on it?"
At these words, Light started tapping his hand rhythmically on the table shook his head and said, "No, we don’t remember anything like that. My group member who saw what happened remembers the wound in the eye of the person who introduced himself as Percy and left the scene, and that he was wearing cargo trousers."
Hearing this, the group member suddenly said, "Okay! That Percy came here for about a week, he even brought some children who were trembling with him and left them here, the children couldn’t speak, it was obvious that they were very scared...."
When Light heard these words, he suddenly stood up and said, "Please lead the way."
After only a short time, the whole group left the castle together and headed towards the place where the children were sheltered, and when the door of the shelter was knocked on, a woman wearing a doctor’s coat opened the door.
"Luna, I’m home!" said the group member calmly, it was known to the whole group that the two were in love.
"Welcome, darling! Ah! Mr George and Lady Olivia, do you have a request?"
When the woman, called Luna by the group member, asked these questions, Olivia said in a calm voice, "We want to see the children, the ones who arrived a week ago." Luna shook her head and began to lead the way, even though she didn’t understand what was going on.
Some members of the group were guarding the outside of the shelter and others were waiting inside. George, Olivia, Luna and Light had gone to see the children.
"Well...before we go in, please understand that the children are still scared. They have difficulty speaking."
Luna said these words gently and opened the door. As the foursome entered, the children gathered together and began to retreat to one side of the room.
"These are the children who were brought in a week ago," Luna said, pointing to the children.
The children were frightened when they realised they were being pointed at, and a boy from the other corner of the room stepped forward and said, "Please stop bothering them, they’ve been hurt enough already!"
The boy looked to be about 10 years old. Despite his small age and strange posture, he seemed to be quite brave.
"Hah.... I have a few questions and if you answer correctly I will give you all sweets, how’s that sound?" said Light suddenly and suddenly lollipops appeared in his hand.
The hiding children and Luna were surprised to see what was happening, and even one of the hiding children came forward and asked, "Are you a superhero?"
Light didn’t seem to expect this question, and this question even managed to make the group laugh. Light nodded his head approvingly and said "Yes, I am a crow man, I hunt bad guys". He was trying hard not to laugh.
At that moment, each of the hiding children came in front of Light and one of them asked aloud, "Will you hunt the one who took my mum and dad away?"
At that moment, Light realised that he was very close to finding those people and nodded his head and said "Yes".
Light then patted the boy’s head and asked, "Do you know where that person went?" He didn’t think the boy could remember such a thing, after all, the boy was scared, but he had no choice but to hope.
"Yes, I know!" the boy suddenly shouted, and with that Light couldn’t hide his surprise any longer and just stood there with his eyes wide open, it was a good thing he was wearing a mask, otherwise all the air he had so far would have just disappeared.
"Do you mind telling me?" Light asked the boy and the boy shook his head and shouted "Manceler!".
Both Light and the others were surprised by what the boy said, they knew that such a place did not exist.
"You mean Manchester?" Luna suddenly asked, and the boy, hearing this, blushed and said "Yes...". The little boy’s face turned red on the spot.
Light then thought that he could ask the real question and looked at the boy and asked, "Did that man have a wound in his eye or was he with such a fat man and a woman?" The answer to that question was the most important thing in this investigation.
