While Ryuto was secretly complaining, Duke Osborne cast a scrutinizing look, as if he were a X-ray scanner.

"Are you the young boy who caught the criminal?"

"Uh... It was just a coincidence. After all, I was once tied up by the other party because I saw their face."

For some reason, Ryuto suddenly added a sentence that was neither here nor there.

"Oh... I see."

The middle-aged man muttered this sentence and did not say anything more.

Then.

“Miss Katsuragi mentioned flying an airplane earlier, is that true?”

His gaze shifted back.

"Yes, it is."

But Katsuragi Reimi did not mention the incident with the man in black assisting.

"This is truly amazing, I never expected a young girl to be able to fly that kind of plane. After all, I cannot, how about you, Duke Osborne?"

"Duke Osborne, stop joking. How could I possibly fly such a thing, I'm not a pilot."

"That's true, even someone as strong as you cannot fly that thing."

"It's undeniable."

The green-haired man shrugged helplessly.

"So, that explains what happened at the TV station."

Duke Osborne suddenly brought up another topic.

"TV station?"

Ryuto said, looking puzzled.

"This young man doesn't know about it?"

Oh no, inadvertently drawing attention again.

Ryuto shouted in his mind that it was not good.

"Oh, because at that time I happened to get separated from them."

"I see, since you don't know, let me briefly explain."

With that, Duke Osborne put on a very serious expression.

"This afternoon, a group of terrorists occupied the city's TV station."

"Occupied?"

"Yes, around three o'clock this afternoon, about ten people dressed in puppet costumes forcibly occupied the TV station."

"Puppet costumes?"

Unexpectedly, terrorists in this country would wear puppet costumes...

To this, Duke Osborne nodded.

"Yes."

"What were they aiming to do by occupying the place? Were they asking for a ransom or something?"

"No, although we initially thought so, they never responded."

"So...?"

"But after some time, they suddenly gave a speech."

"A speech? From the terrorists?"

"Yes, it seems that they occupied the TV station to facilitate delivering the speech, so more people could see it."

"What was the content of the speech?"

Ryuto asked directly.

"The other party seemed completely open about it, and that is..."

"And that is?"

"To ask the Holy Heir on that side to abdicate."

"Huh? Abdicate?"

"Yes, they took the opportunity to speak ill of the Holy Heir, saying that only when the Holy Heir abdicates, will this country be at peace. It's pure nonsense," Duke Osborne said indignantly.

"Duke Osborne, don't worry too much, I don't really care." The white-haired girl, who had been silent the whole time, said calmly.

"No, I'm just angry at the fact that they don't understand the Holy Heir's intentions. These people clearly know nothing, yet they insist on spouting nonsense, misleading the public."

"It's okay, I'm used to it. I'll take care of the rest, Duke Osborne."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Duke Osborne didn't say much, just nodded slightly, obediently agreeing.
