Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Lion Jie Li: "Yeah, I don't even remember the last time I laughed."

Lion's Robbery: "It seems I'm doing quite well in the other world."

Chapter 130 The Truth Behind the Lightning Strike

【"Who are you?"】

Grey watched the newcomer warily.

【"hehe..."】

Lion Robber grinned, then fired backhand, killing several approaching ghosts.

"These spirits are guarding this tomb; it seems they mistake the ladies for grave robbers."

"But this is not good," Lion Robber explained. "They're getting increasingly excited."

"I happen to know a shortcut to the outside, but I might be a bit rough as your protector. Ladies, can you keep up?"

[Grey: "Okay."]

[And so, led by Lion's Robbery, the group circled around to the outside of the workshop and returned inside despite the heavy rain.]

Reines fainted midway through the journey due to the Mystic Eyes and was carried back by the Mercury Maid.

Hearing the commotion, the Second Prince and Wales also rushed over.

[Lion's Robbery: "It's alright, she just fainted."]

[Second Generation: "Who are you?"]

[Grey: "This gentleman just saved us."]

"Lion's Roar, right?"

[Himeko Arashi arrived at this moment and directly revealed Shishikai's identity.]

[Second Generation: "So, what brings you here?"]

[Wales: "Sorry, Mr. Lion Robbery is a friend of my father."]

[Lion's Robbery: "Yes, I'm here to offer my condolences."]

[Himeko Adashino: "And then, instead of coming to the villa as a mourner, you went to the cemetery."]

"Because that tomb leads directly to the foot of the mountain."

Lion Robber laughed, "To avoid lightning and reach the mansion, going through the tomb is the safest option."

After their conversation, everyone dispersed to rest.

The Second Prince and Reines were assigned to share a room, with the Second Prince tasked with taking care of the other.

[Second Generation: "Seriously, why do we have to share a room?"]

"I actually think now is a good time to have children."

Reines, who had already woken up, started joking with the Second King.

[Second Generation: "...Why did it turn out like this?!"]

Weber: "..."

Second: "..."

Seeing this scene, one of them felt a headache and the other felt a stomachache.

Kenneth: "Hmm, it seems that in the original history you and Reines had a pretty good relationship too."

Weber: "...Where did you get that from?!"

Feng Xi: "Stop pretending. We're already sharing a room, so the next step should be sharing a bed."

Rin Tohsaka: "I think so too. You two seem to be flirting."

Conqueror King: "Haha, kid, this girl looks pretty good. You're quite the ladies' man."

Afu: "That's right, just say it if you like someone, don't be shy."

Weber: "What nonsense are you talking about? The girl in the video should be a minor!"

"This land is now connected to the Demon Eye."

Recalling the events of the day, the Second Prince murmured, "The land, the lightning, the demonic eye—they were almost connected... So that's how it is!"

The Second King left in a hurry, telling Reines before he left, "I'm going to check something. You do as Grey told you, go to sleep."

[Then, the Second King went to Trevor's study to begin his inquiry.]

"Just as I expected."

[His judgment was confirmed, but some doubts remained. It was getting late, so the Second Prince had no choice but to go back and sleep with Reines.]

"Master, Master!"

[In the middle of the night, Grey suddenly ran to the door and knocked.]

【"What's wrong?"】

[The second prince, rubbing his eyes after being woken up, asked.]

[Grey: "Master, something terrible has happened! Miss Valletta has been struck by lightning!"]

[Second Generation: "Even now, there are still deaths!"]

Clearly, this was not something the Second Prince had anticipated.

The Conqueror King: "Your nightcap is quite cute. I'll buy one next time I visit the kingdom."

Weber: "(╯Д)╯Is this what you're focusing on?!"

Kenneth: "To think that another death would occur at a time like this, and one from the Codrington family at that, that kid Wales is in trouble now."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Indeed, it's too much of a coincidence."

Kiritsugu Emiya: "But that woman named Valletta shouldn't have left this room, so how could she have been struck by lightning?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Now that you mention it, this is a problem that needs to be solved."

Rin Tohsaka: "Also, what did the Second Master find out just now?"

Kenneth: "There's no point in thinking about this. Let's just watch and see."

Valletta's death alerted everyone in the house.

[Wales performed a spirit mediumship on Valletta's body, but to no avail.]

[Lion's Robbery: "There's no mistake, some kind of spell is interfering with the spirit summoning."]

[Himeri Adashino: "In other words, it was man-made."]

[Lion's Robbery: "That should be right."]

[Himeko Adashino: "So, according to the principles of criminal investigation, who benefited the most from her death..."]

[It's clear that suspicion has fallen on Wales again.]

[Lion's Robbery: "Wait, if the young master is the murderer, there's no need to summon the monarch."]

[Himeko Adashino: "It's possible to have the monarch act as one's alibi."]

"No, the real culprit is someone else."

The Second Prince said in a deep voice, "In the world of magicians, it's meaningless to dwell on who the murderer is or how the crime was committed."

"But at least we can deduce why we did it this way, right?"

[Himeko said calmly, "So he's the one with the motive to kill, isn't he?"]

[Second Generation: "Miss Adashino, your so-called motive for murder is all conjecture."]

[Then, the Second Prince requested that the investigation continue until the storm subsided, and Adashino Hishiri agreed.]

But this time, she confined Wales to her room.

[After all, another person died, and it was a client no less. Hideaki Adashino had to do something to show her stance.]

Kenneth: "It seems this matter isn't so simple, since it can interfere with séances."

Lion's Robbery Realm: "Ah, after all, this kind of spell can't be set up casually."

After something like this happened, naturally no one was in the mood to sleep anymore.

The Second Prince indicated he needed Shishikage's assistance, and Shishikage agreed in exchange for a cigar.

Following this, Lion's Claw and Grey went together to the study to gather information, as instructed by the Second King.

During this conversation, Grey also mentioned her past.

"I've never left my village since I was a child, and when I first arrived in London, many things felt new and exciting to me."

[Lion's Robbery: "Really? Being his disciple must be tough."]

[Grey: "No, my master is very good to me."]

After organizing the documents the Second Prince needed, the two carried them back.

【"Bang!!!"】
