Chapter 2 Lock up the brave (1)

As a brave man, no matter how lucky he is and how much he is cared by the world consciousness, he cannot resist the powerful side effects brought about by the ability of "accident physique". Every brave man can always encounter inexplicable events at inexplicable time periods due to inexplicable reasons. Maybe there will be an inexplicable fight in the end, then inexplicably quit, inexplicably negotiate, and finally inexplicably wait an event.

The misery that even lucky A cannot escape, the lucky F me will naturally appear to be even more miserable.

"So why are you chasing after me to death! What is the reason? Can you tell me clearly? We don't do any persuasion work when we meet, just throw a big fireball from 'Duang' at me. If you really get hit It will kill people! It will kill people! This kind of thing is very important!"

I snarled at the women who came face to face with me.

But she didn't respond to what I said, and she was still concentrating there, preparing for the next magic.

I kind of feel bad.

Qiuqiu was sent by me to find Lilith and inform her of my current situation to prevent the situation from getting worse, which also caused me to lack an assistant now. I am not very good at magic. Many times I rely on Qiuqiu's support to accurately use the magic in the magic scroll. If I just release it purely, let alone the problem of hit rate, even the efficiency of using magic power will be greatly reduced. .

So what do I do now?

It’s just that I’m not too worried about those few guards. Even though my physical skills take off, I can barely escape from their siege. The problem is that the unknown young lady who has an inexplicable hatred for me, the magic she is preparing is not a simple thing.

The surrounding Mana frantically gathered towards her.

It was like a tornado, and that young lady was the maker of the tornado.

I wanted to get out of the opponent's casting range, but because of the obstruction of the surrounding guards, I couldn't run too far. Even if they can't swing their swords at me, they can hit me directly with their shields, so that they won't cause fatal damage, and can hinder my actions... Without these guys, the possibility of my escape might be a little higher.

There are not so many ifs in reality.

Otherwise, I would prefer to choose to change my lucky level.

"Forbidden Devildom [Field of Forbidden Demons]!"

The magic circle re-radiated from the eldest lady, enveloping me, and the surrounding mana stagnated for a moment, causing half of my prepared magic to be abruptly interrupted. He wanted to escape from this area, but found that neither [Flash] nor [Teleportation] could be used.

The former is because I can't cover a layer of defense around me to protect myself from being hurt in the void.

The latter is because my perception of the set coordinates is hindered by the [Forbidden Domain], and the presence of guards around me prevents me from concentrating.

All countermeasures were contained.

I could only stop and raise my hands in surrender.

"Well, I'll go with you, can you tell me why?"

But the other party ignored me.

Several guards directly held my hands and led me towards the city. Even in this case, the 【Forbidden Magic Domain】has not been lifted, and that young lady is really cautious enough to prevent the possibility of me escaping even if she maintains this expensive domain magic... Eh? wrong?

The source of magic is that book.

So the reason I was defeated was that book?

In that case, just find a chance to come across that book.

"The magic imprint, and it's quite strong, you probably stole something from your brother!"

The eldest lady who was walking in front suddenly spoke.

"If you attack the Scott family, and then swagger to the harbor, you should be prepared to be arrested."

ha?

What the hell is she talking about.

"Brother has been missing for so long, and his magic mark suddenly appeared on you. There is nothing to explain. You must have done something to your brother to cause this situation."

So who is your brother?

Can you make it clear!

"Guards, throw him directly into prison on the charge of 'assaulting members of the Scott family'."

"Yes! Miss!"

"Hey... wait, what are you talking about! I don't know anything... let me go!"

Ever since.

that's all.

I was at a loss.

was put in prison.

Yes, it is the kind of prison I saw in Ingrid once, used to detain mortals in a city. Although it is not as dark as the one over there, it is always a cool and humid place that makes people feel uncomfortable, and it is even more troublesome. There are many other prisoners in the same cell as me.

He didn't even have the right to enjoy a single room.

I feel tired just thinking about it.

Anyway, this is my current situation. And the only thing I can do now is to wait here quietly for Lilith to help me deal with the matter, at least to get me a chance to explain. Although I have considered leaving directly, although the activity of Mana is suppressed here, it is not that there is no Mana at all.

At least I have no problem unleashing a few space tricks.

If you directly use [Teleport] to leave here, at most you will doubt the exact teleportation location because there are no coordinates.

But I can't do it.

Once I run away, it means that I am guilty, and I can't explain it clearly, so the best choice is to wait for Lilith's help. As long as you can explain it well, misunderstandings can always be solved, so the nobleman named "Scott" cannot be the main source of trouble for the time being,

As for the prisoners in front of me who all look like they have been in prison for a long time, they will not cause me any trouble.

What really gave me a headache was not knowing when Qiuqiu would come to me.

Could it be that she has forgotten about me and played cards with Lilith and Emily amidst laughter? If that's the case, I can only leave here in a violent way... Well, if you don't see Qiuqiu the next morning, just leave here. Although he didn't think about going back for revenge, he still wanted to find out the whole situation and clear himself up.

I am kind, kind, honest, friendly, helpful, and brave.

Never do things that endanger social development.

Except for the occasional demolition of some buildings due to irresistible factors, generally speaking, you can be an excellent citizen!

"Qiu Qiu..."

"Qiu Qiu?"

"Chu Qiu!"

"Qiu Qiu, are you there?"

"Qiuqiu, if you don't show up again, I will consider blowing up the prison, okay?"

I couldn't help but yell out because my partner didn't respond for a long time. Of course, I have also prepared a series of answers to questions that several inmates may ask.

"What! New here? You want to blow up the prison and escape! Take your brothers together."

It turned out that where they paid attention was a bit strange?

"Yeah, yeah, I've been locked here and I don't know when I can get out. Besides, going out is not as comfortable as living here, but it's too boring to stay like this all the time. Let's have some fun."

"Think carefully about the last jailbreak, it was already a year ago. At that time, I thought about a lot of plans, but I never tried such a violent method! New here, hurry up and blow up one for us to see."

"..."

Who are these people!

I have seen people who escaped from prison, and I have also seen people who were caught back after breaking out of prison. I can still understand the kind of people who want to escape after being caught back after breaking out of prison.

I voted once knowing that there would be a group of people who would enjoy jailbreaking as a daily recreational activity.

Is there something wrong with this city? !

"I said, I'm serious, my 'Boom' goes down, let's not talk about this wall, and it may even blow up some other things."

"Hahahaha! People who have been in prison for so long, what is there to be afraid of! Isn't life just for having fun?"

The middle-aged man with the roughest appearance let out a hearty laugh.

When he patted my shoulder with his right hand, I felt uncomfortable for a while, and when I came back to my senses, I found that the hand was rough and incomprehensible. It looks like it is the result of long-term work. From this point of view, such a middle-aged man should often be the pillar of a family!

He is tall, strong, and able to do things. It stands to reason that he shouldn't be caught and sent to prison, right?

"Hahahaha! Brother, don't scare him! You look so much like...'Ah! Ha! Boy! Believe it or not, I will beat you!', no matter how you look at it, you look like this kind of person, but this child still looks He’s not over 18! It’s probably the same reason he came to this prison, what a poor kid.”

It was a tall and thin man who clapped the middle-aged man's hand away.

He held back his voice as if imitating someone's speech, amusing the whole cell.

"Hello? Did you get scared and stupid? The situation in the prison is different from what I imagined? It seems that they must have been wronged. The people here are actually a group of ordinary people who have never touched weapons... Ah, To be precise, it is only me, after all, I am a person who specializes in killing children!"

The tall man licked his lips as he spoke.

But because the expression on his face was too funny, he didn't feel any fear at all.

I laughed instead.

"Pfft ha ha ha! It's not like it at all!"

"Oh oh oh! Boy, you are too much! This is such a superb imitation, hurry up and pretend to be very scared to satisfy me and press it!"

"Hahahahaha! Hug, sorry, my stomach hurts so much, I have no strength...Sorry, sorry."

"Ha, hum... There's nothing I can do about you, so I'll let you off this time."

The man said so, shook his head, and sat down.

It's not as difficult as I imagined, and even on the contrary, the people in this cell are surprisingly interesting.

"Okay! The drama is over, boy, it's time to introduce yourself! We haven't heard anything outside for a long time."

A man who was shorter than the previous two came over and patted my head with his hand, and then rubbed it hard a few times.

It's like the feeling of bullying one's own juniors.

Then, I saw those 6 people sitting down with different habits, looking up at me, waiting for me to speak.

Some of them are sitting upright, some are lying on their sides, and there are even strange guys who form a U. The reason is "to exercise the flexibility of their bodies so that they can get out of the iron bars directly", and they are very serious, as if they are real plan to do the same.

So, how do I introduce myself?

Be a little more ordinary!

"My name is Neil. I'm an adventurer. For some reason, I came to this city with my companions, but I didn't expect to be targeted by a...well, the eldest lady of the 'Scott' family, saying that I attacked you. Members of their family just grabbed me and threw me in."

After I finished speaking, I shrugged my shoulders, expressing my helplessness.

I am really helpless.

Because I have never understood the content of the matter from beginning to end, and have not had the opportunity to explain it.

I thought my experience would be special, but I didn't expect the six people in front of me to show the expressions of "as expected\

,""Hey! Sure enough, we are the same."

"Hahaha! Is there a second reason for throwing him into this cell?!"

Eh?

Wait!

That is, where can I get a little understanding of the specific situation of the matter?

Suddenly excited.

I thought it would be difficult to obtain relevant information, but I didn't expect to have unexpected gains in prison. The six people in front of me all had the same experience as me, that is to say, they were all arrested for the crime of "assaulting members of the Scott family", but they were not sentenced to death. Evidence suggests that these people are likely to do such things, but the evidence is weak.

In terms of evidence, it is probably the "magic imprint" that the young lady mentioned! It may be that a member of that family disappeared, so she directly arrested all the people with the magic mark, charged them all with assault, and then reviewed them one by one. Anyway, if they caught the wrong one, it would not cause any trouble .

After all, there is a class gap.

…………

Thinking of this, my mood deteriorated at an unstoppable speed.

In any case, no matter how troublesome I am, I have no better way to deal with this situation. After all, this has become an international issue. You will never be able to travel safely for the rest of your life!

It's a little uncomfortable.

The 6 people in the same prison as me are all residents of Seaport. They have various occupations, and the only one who has a criminal case is just "because my boss is too annoying, so I pissed him off." A bottle of chili water" led to the situation that "the boss lost his sense of taste for nearly half a month because of the effect is too strong".

It means that almost all the people in this room are good people.

On the contrary, I, a brave man, have done many robbery incidents.

Although the targets I rob are all robbers.

"Then, let's sort it out in the order of the lottery!"

A well-built, middle-aged man made the decision.

His name is Norton, and he can be said to be the boss of this prison. His main job is to help the people in the prison deal with the guards, and to calm down these delicate-tempered guys. Although he is a guy with a rough appearance and fierce eyes, he is surprisingly a delicate and easy-to-get close person.

"Wow! Why is it drawing lots again, why can't we change something else?"

The ordinary-looking young man yelled like this, but there was no rebuttal in his tone or expression.

Maybe just say a few words out of habit?

The man's name was Bertram, and he looked about thirty or so. He is a teacher. Although he only teaches people to read and write, it is also a very important job. In a sense, he can be said to be the only intellectual here, right? However, the style of this intellectual was completely biased by this room.

"Because the lottery is the easiest, so be it so be it."

Some fat men waved their hands, as if begging their companions not to pursue so many details.

Whether it's the voice, the tone, or the current state, the existence named Kom conveys a feeling of "too lazy to move" to the people around him. Just looking at him will subconsciously want to relax. The body, maybe after a while, it will become the same as him.

Sure enough, laziness is contagious.

"Why do you have to draw lots?"

The tall and thin man asked, but the movement of his hands did not stop. He grabbed the paper stick from the tube at a speed that people around him couldn't see clearly, opened it, and quickly lay down on the ground and curled up his body.

"The first one, the first one... I know I'm darker, so I can't be this dark every time."

"Maybe you were just born that way, Hewlett."

There was a tremor in the voice of the second drawer as he spoke, and he seemed to be trying not to laugh, but it was a difficult thing to do. Judging from the fact that he failed to grasp the note correctly after grabbing it several times, I think it's better for him to laugh outright, otherwise he might choke his body.

"Laugh if you want."

"Pfft ha ha ha, sorry, sorry, this is the first time I've heard that a profession like thieves, which requires a lot of luck, has a special case like you."

"So I haven't been a thief for many years! Just after I got an arrow in the knee because of this bad luck, I decided to be an ordinary person for the rest of my life."

"That's really pitiful."

Those who say this do not have any sympathy.

That is the smallest guy in this prison besides me, his name is Joel, he used to be an adventurer, if it wasn’t for this accident, he might have continued his own adventure, it seems that he was caught inexplicably It's a pretty bad thing for him... No, it stands to reason that everyone here would feel bad.

Even if the death penalty cannot be imposed due to insufficient evidence, there is no danger to life.

But no one wants to live in this environment for a lifetime.

"Actually, I think it's pretty good here!"

…………

Yes, I was slapped in the face.

It was the one who got the lottery last.

It hurt me so much.

However, considering his identity, it's not a problem to come to such a feeling, right? For this retired soldier named Carmen, his family has long since passed away, and his former friends cannot be found. Under such circumstances, it is natural for him to be much better in prison than outside.

After all, there are people here who I am familiar with and can chat with.

These are the six people in this prison, each with its own characteristics, but they are all imprisoned together for the same reason, and they make friends under inexplicable circumstances and obtain a special friendship that is indescribable. Although I prefer not to have been to the prison, An Anxin waited until Lilith and Emily's affairs were done, and then set off to find the ice dragon.

But at least it's okay here?

"Let's start with Hewlett first, and be careful! This little brother is an important person who may clear us of charges."

"Eh……"

I was inexplicably praised, and I didn't know how to answer it.

It is indeed possible for me to do this. After all, if I want to prove my innocence in front of that paranoid young lady, the only way is to find out the real reason of the whole incident. In this way, the people in this prison It can also be proved that they are "innocent people who have nothing to do with this incident" and can be released.

"I will work hard."

I can only give this half-perfunctory answer.

Fortunately, they don't really care about this kind of thing.

Hewlett is the guy who played "what is the real villain" with me in the beginning, and I only now know that this tall, thin, ordinary-looking man was once a thief... ah! Naturally, this thief is not talking about a thief. A thief refers to a profession that is good at organs and props. Their weapons are often small and easy to carry. Narrow indoor action.

It is already strange that there is a teacher here.

There was even a thief.

The thief had been brought here safely for so long, without thinking about picking the lock and escaping.

"What kind of look is that!"

"Sorry, sorry..."

"Although I am a thief, I am also a good citizen who abides by the law! So this incident has nothing to do with me... No, I can't say that completely," Hewlett paused for a while in the middle of speaking, "The name of the missing noble young master is Bruce Scott. I once had a relationship with him."

"see once?"

I feel as if I guessed something, but I'm not sure yet.

"Yes, by chance, I have received his commission to steal a certain ornament from Scott's mansion. Although I don't understand why this young master would hire someone to steal something from his own house, But I thought it was a commission with almost zero risk, so I helped to do it, and I never saw it again."

Hewlett briefly described what happened at the beginning.

no problem.

It was indeed just a one-sided relationship, a pure client-mercenary relationship.

"Later, the eldest lady of the Scott family came to me suddenly, saying that she suspected me of 'murdering members of the Scott family' and arrested me," Hewlett raised his hands when he said this, "It's really unfair. Yes! Before parting with the young master, I told him to pay attention to safety, because I thought he was planning to leave Iceland secretly for the mainland by himself, but he was charged with this crime when he turned around. The more important thing is which one? No matter how I explain, the eldest lady will not listen."

yes.

So did I.

If it weren't for the embarrassment of my identity, and Lilith and Emily are also in this city, I wouldn't mind throwing a few magic scrolls to blow up each other, and then calmly activate the space magic and leave.

"That's probably the case, brother, do you have any ideas?"

"There is a way, yes... because the eldest lady said that I have her family's magic imprint on me, have you been told that?"

"Huh? It seems so."

"..."

What is obviously the key point was given an ambiguous answer.

Really want to give this guy a fist.

"Then let's put my guess aside for now, who is the next person?"

"Collect more information for comparison, confirm your own thoughts before speaking out... I understand, I understand, the next one is of course the boss!"

"Um."

Looking at the middle-aged man, I feel a little headache.

Although the length is very fierce, but according to the understanding of this short period of time, he is not the kind of person who will do such a thing.

The reason for the misunderstanding is because he also met the young master named Bruce Scott?

"I live in a suburb outside the city."

"Eh?"

"Because it is convenient to be close to the forest for logging, I live there with my wife and children, just outside the forest on the north side of the harbor."

"oh……"

It turned out to be carpentry.

I looked at Norton and nodded.

"One day, I met a man named Bruce Scott in the forest. At that time, I just thought he was a nobleman. I didn't think too much about it, because he looked very embarrassed and there was no good place on his body. , and even the only weapon left is the scabbard.”

"Hey... nothing, nothing, please continue."

"Um."

While listening to the incident described by the other party, I gradually conceived a general framework in my mind.

Maybe everyone here was wronged because they had contact with the man named Bruce Scott.

So what is my reason?

I have never met Bruce Scott.

I can vividly recall not a single person whose surname was Scott from all the people I met.

Even the academy is no exception.

If I really want to say that I am not familiar with it, it is probably the skeleton I encountered because of a certain mission.

At that time, in order to purify, he still handed that pendant to his... handed him... pendant?

Speaking of pendants?

It is also a kind of jewelry.

Besides, I remember that the pendant was attached with some kind of magic.

More importantly, the original task information also gave me a vague reminder.
