"Could this be..."

Irene frowned slightly. "It was mentioned at the teacher's meeting before. It seems to be called Dreamland..."

"Drugs, right? I've heard of it."

Yuli said as he held the bottle up to the moonlight and examined it.

Seeing his nonchalant look, Irene and Annabell looked at each other again: Why did he know such a thing?

Dreamland.

Yuri had heard the name of this hallucinogenic drug in the game before, and it was related to the villain organization "The Hermit Cult" in the plot.

The new drug they developed will flood various countries in a year, making social security unstable. At the same time, the Hermit Cult will also make a fortune from selling drugs.

It is a very important main storyline in "Goddess Apocalypse", but it is the first time that Yuri has seen the real Dreamland. Probably to facilitate the review, it did not appear directly in front of the players.

There is still some time before the plot begins, but I didn't expect that they have already infiltrated the Vatican...

Yuli glanced at the man further down the alley.

No, he probably doesn't know about it. He's just a small fry at most.

"Just like Irene said, he is a complete scumbag. There are indeed signs that he is secretly running a drug trafficking business."

Yuli concluded this, but Irene was not happy.

She looked at the black-haired boy anxiously and asked the most concerning question: "What should we do next?"

Annabelle, who had remained silent from beginning to end, spoke: "You should really turn yourself in..."

"No!" Irene widened her eyes and shouted excitedly.

Irene was very aggressive, but Annabelle was also very firm.

"This is the only way... I've brought you to the crime scene...

If you don’t turn yourself in and are discovered later, you might be considered to have known about the incident and failed to report it, and be implicated.”

"If I was worried about being implicated, I wouldn't come here!" said Irene.

Annabell said calmly, "I was guilty of manslaughter. We'll know the truth if we investigate this matter... Besides, Siegel was carrying drugs, so the court should give him a lighter sentence."

"That won't do! Even if it's a minor crime, it's still murder. Siegel is a noble, so he should be in prison for at least ten years, right?"

"Only ten years, that's already very light," Annabelle said calmly.

At this time, Yuli raised the Dreamland in his hand: "This might be considered a frame-up by the court."

"Ah? What do you mean by that?"

Irene put her hands on her hips angrily: "Are you trying to say that Anna stuffed the drugs into Siegel's body?"

"I never said that, and calm down." Yuri sighed.

Irene has been very aggressive since the beginning. It is obvious that she is trying to show off in front of Annabell and hide her anxiety. We can no longer rely on her.

To be honest, Yuli actually considered the possibility that Teacher Anna had stuffed Dreamland into Siegel's clothes in order to win the sympathy of himself and Irene.

After careful consideration, he ruled out this possibility, but the judge might not think so.

The situation came to a stalemate and the atmosphere became particularly solemn.

"Ulphis-san..."

Irene asked, "What do you think? Do you think Anna should turn herself in?"

"This is something that Teacher Anna should decide."

Yuri paused and said, "If Teacher Anna intends to turn herself in, I will not stop her, nor will I let you stop her."

Irene made a "tsk" sound, and he continued.

"If he doesn't want to turn himself in, this man deserves to die... Let's see if there's anything we can do to help."

Hearing him say this, Irene nodded in satisfaction, and the two turned their eyes to Annabell.

"..."

Her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do.

However, Annabell noticed the calmness in Yuli's expression, which made her feel a little relieved.

"If you don't turn yourself in, once your body is discovered..."

Anna said with an uneasy look on her face.

Although there were not many people on the streets tonight, there was no guarantee that I would not be witnessed.

The Knights Templar would definitely launch an investigation after discovering Siegel's body. What if a passerby happened to recognize me in my maid outfit?

"Just fake it as an accidental death," said Yuli.

"Accident? Doesn't it look like an accident now?"

Irene frowned.

Although she did not see the body in person, Annabelle said Siegel died from a severe blow to the back of his head.

He slipped and hit the curb on a rainy day. No matter how you look at it, it was an accidental death.

Yuri said: "You are right, but it is not surprising enough. Accidental deaths during shoving and fighting are not uncommon, and the Knights must be aware of this.

Besides, this guy is a noble after all, and he will be subject to the most rigorous investigation even if it is just routine matters.

If the Knights were to visit nearby, they might find out something."

"What should we do?" Annabell asked.

Yuli gave a sly smile and showed the two the Dreamland in his hand.

"We need to make it an accident so that no one will be interested in investigating further."

After that, Yuri took action.

He poured most of the Dreamland in his hand into Siegel's mouth, and the remaining small portion spilled on his clothes.

Dreamland is a concentrated solution and needs to be diluted at a ratio of 50:1 when used, so this small bottle is even enough to slowly poison an adult.

Then, Yuli dragged Siegel's body out of the alley and placed it horizontally in a conspicuous place on the street.

In this case, no matter who it is, they would think that Siegel was high on drugs and fell to his death while walking at night.

Regarding such a drug addict with a bad reputation, the Knights probably have no interest in seriously investigating the cause of his death and will just close the case hastily.

During the entire process of handling the body, Yuli did not let Irene intervene, but asked her to stand guard at a location far away from the crime scene, watching for passers-by.

"Huh...done."

Yuli wiped the sweat off his face and quickly returned to the two of them.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ulphis-san."

Irene said apologetically, "I'm an adult, but I can't help at all... oh, so frustrating!"

"I've known for a long time that Teacher Irene is useless." The Son of Prophecy said with a smile.

"What did you say!" Irene puffed up her cheeks angrily.

"Um...Ulphis-san."

Annabell walked up to the two of them stiffly.

Just as she was about to speak, Yuli raised his hand to stop her.

"If you want to thank me, you better wait until we get home. It's time to leave. We've been here for too long."

"Ah, yes, that's true."

Annabell nodded obediently.

The events of the night came to an end, and the three of them returned to the mansion under the starlight.

Yuli walked ahead alone while Irene and Annabell followed behind him, talking as they walked.

"Well...I told you that Ulysses-san is very reliable!"

Erin took Annabelle's arm and winked at her with a wicked smile.

"……Um."

Annabell nodded deeply.

Seeing the tears in her eyes, Irene felt relieved.

It seems that Anna and Ulysses will be able to reconcile in the future...

As expected of the son of prophecy, he is very capable.

He is calm and resolute. I am an adult but I am no match for him...

Irene looked at the boy's back with longing.

However, at this moment, a chill suddenly passed through the back of her neck and swept through her whole body.

"what……?"

Irene realized she had missed a very, very important detail.

"What's wrong, Irene...you look so bad?"

Annabell stared at her friend strangely: "Do you have a cold? Your body is shaking all the time."

Irene shook her head, desperately denying it.

But even so, the trembling of the body could not be stopped, and goose bumps covered the skin.

Because she noticed something very important.

Something that should have attracted the most attention and been questioned, but its presence has been quietly reduced.

Did Ulphis-san keep me away just to monitor passers-by and let me accompany Anna?

Let me put it more bluntly.

Was Siegel really dead when we arrived at the scene...?
