"Please give me a piece of cake."

I suddenly walked up to the cake seller and smiled.

The other person was clearly startled by my sudden appearance, which was only natural since she had been carefully monitoring Yaling and the others.

When she saw me appear suddenly, she first froze for a moment and then immediately smiled, saying,

"Oh, I apologize. I was a little lost in thought because there were no customers. Which cake would you like?"

"Well..."

I pretended to look and then smiled in response.

"I'll take the large sword at the bottom."

"..."

Auntie's smiling face instantly stiffened.

This was also natural. Due to my skill as a 【Famous Detective】, the weapon in her hand was also displayed through the table. A large folded sword was hidden under the cake table's edge.

She had been gripping the hilt of the sword since a while ago, which really gave me a scare~

The attack warning flashed, and I quickly jumped back. The sharp blade of the large sword suddenly pierced out from under the table, splitting the entire cake in half.

What a waste. This cake was bought from the cake shop on the other side of the city as a disguise, right? It was still edible after all, how could it be wasted like this.

But the other person clearly didn't have this awareness and suddenly leaped towards me to attack.

"Ice Beam!"

Not wanting to waste time with her, I flung a blue beam of light and froze her in mid-air.

This wasn't my fault. She dared to attack me at level 20, so I could only say that her courage was commendable.

But being hit by my magic would only turn her into an ice popsicle!

Immediately after, the other two were bundled up like zongzi and thrown over.

Standing by the side was Oyado.

"Fir... what's going on with you guys..."

With such a commotion just now, the people around were all startled, and Blanche and Yaling also approached us because they saw what happened.

"I dealt with them a little, these three were all spying on you. In the name of your safety, I tied them up... well, almost all of them."

Except for one who was frozen.

"Hey~ Although I did notice someone following us, I didn't expect you guys to catch them first."

Blanche said, looking at the three people and smiling.

"Yaling said someone was following her and asked me for help in finding them. I didn't expect you guys to find them first."

As she said this, Blanche glanced at Oyado standing beside her and the three people bound up on the ground.

She probably remembered how Oyado had "packaged" her before, and I felt Blanche shudder for a moment.

"So that's how it is... Yaling, why didn't you say earlier? We could have helped together, wouldn't it have been faster?"

"Um... I felt... a little embarrassed."

Yaling said shyly.

"Um... we were sort of..."

Engaged? Definitely not, that setting had already been modified by the world.

World Sauce could even make a person disappear completely, so just modifying a setting was too simple...

So it was childhood friends.

"It's precisely because we grew up together... that's why now... Fir, you're so strong, but I am still so weak... um... I apologize for bothering you..."

"What are you talking about? Don't worry about that kind of thing."

I was dizzy. Why did it feel like Yaling's personality was becoming increasingly strange?

"As long as there's something, just say it directly, we can solve it together, especially since we've known each other before..."

When I mentioned that we knew each other before, I suddenly felt a pang of unease. Could it be because her memories have been modified?

No, this is the best choice for her now, I firmly believe.

"Here, here~ I have a suggestion~"

Blanche suddenly called out.

"Can I ask Oyado not to 'package' me in the future?"

"Of course..."

After saying that, I turned to Oyado.

"Oh, please don't put people in bags casually~"

"Huh... but she wanted to attack big brother~"

"Attack..."

I turned to Blanche and she shook her head frantically.

"No, absolutely not, it must be a misunderstanding!"

"...Well, let's leave it at that. Let's first solve the problem here."

I turned to the two dumplings on the ground, glanced at the girl, and then at the man.

After thinking for a moment, I looked at the girl first.

"Miss Mei, I'll give you a choice. Should the uncle from Heze die first, or should Mrs. Fir die first?"

"Huh? Wait, what are you talking about? We suddenly got tied up by you, and... how did you know our names?"

"First of all, the format of your answer is incorrect."

After saying that, I snapped my fingers, and the bundled up man started to freeze from his feet.

"And then, you just used 'men', which means I didn't make a mistake in their names, because you confirmed it yourself that I knew your names."

"Ah... well..."

"So I'll ask again, which one of them should die first?"

"..."

"If you don't answer, does that mean I should pick you?"

I snapped my fingers again, and the girl's feet also began to freeze.

"..."

She clamped her teeth tightly, her slightly dry short hair trembling slightly, whether from the cold or fear, I couldn't tell.

"Even if you can endure it, it seems that the auntie won't be able to hold on that long."

The aunt, who was still in a attacking posture and suspended in mid-air, was surrounded by seventy percent of her body covered in ice. Everyone knows how uncomfortable it is to hold a block of ice with your hand for too long.

But what if you were surrounded by a ball of ice?

"You're truly a demon!"

"A demon? I don't think someone who was monitoring my friend would say that. Why don't you tell me, the ones who were monitoring my friend, what were you aiming for?"

As I spoke, I glanced at Blanche and Yaling behind me.

"Don't say you weren't monitoring us, otherwise, I won't continue to inquire in such a friendly manner, and I'll switch to someone else."

"If I tell you, will you... let us go and allow us to leave safely?"

Suddenly, the uncle spoke up.

"Dad, you..."

"Enough, we don't need to mess with another demon because of one demon."

The man named Heze stopped his daughter from trying to stop him and continued speaking.

"What do you want to know?"

"Who sent you to monitor us?"

I asked with a smile.

Sure enough, if it were ordinary people, it might not have gone so smoothly, but...

All three of them had the same surname, 'Bede'. The girl's eyes were similar to the aunt's, but her hair was the same curly yellow as the uncle's.

All three had Eastern European features, and just now, the girl had been paying attention to the aunt.

I snapped my fingers, and the ice on the aunt slowly melted, and she fell to the ground. But because of the previous coldness, her body couldn't move at all.

Oyado threw her sword aside and dragged her to the side under the sunlight.

"Alright, if you want her to receive healing, now is the time to explain what's going on."

I looked kindly at the girl and suggested.
