The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"Well, you should also know what we are going to do this time, just like 'Mother', right?"

"..."

"..."

This is obviously impossible.

Because Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji were just discussing what this invitation from Ian was for.

"..."

"this and that……"

This is different from Shuten-doji's reaction of wanting to know the truth but not wanting to be unaware of the truth being exposed.

Ibaraki Douji is much more honest.

She simply bowed to Jack the Ripper and then spoke;

"We don't know—"

"If you know what's going on... please tell us directly!"

"Izuki, you!"

"Shuten." Ibaraki Douji turned around and said, "If you have a certain feeling, you must express it immediately. Have you forgotten how many wonderful opportunities we have missed because of this?"

"I don't want to make the same mistake again, not even once."

"..."

If what Jack the Ripper said just now was just a relatively tempting "suggestion" to Shuten-doji.

So--

The words from his good friend Ibaraki Douji directly penetrated the heart of the Demon King of Oeyama.

yes……

You won't get anything by hiding things, right?

absolute……

This absolutely cannot happen again!

Thinking of this, Shuten-douji no longer hesitated. She simply followed the example of her good friend Ibaraki-douji and knelt down to worship Jack the Ripper.

"Although saying this may sound a bit presumptuous."

"But it doesn't matter what it is, even if it's just some insignificant words."

"Please tell us, tell us, what are we going to do this time!"

only--

At this moment, things once again took a turn that Shuten-doji had never expected.

Facing the pleas from the two ghosts of Oeyama, Jack the Ripper remained silent for a long time, and then said with some sadness:

"So you didn't know either..."

"I thought you knew!"

"what!"

Shuten-doji immediately raised his head.

"You don't know anything!"

"I thought you knew everything, that's why you said that."

"If I had known..." Jack the Ripper looked up at the top of his head, "I wouldn't have had to crawl in—"

"Mother said that those were 'things only adults know'... So you're not adults."

"..."

"we……"

Shuten-doji was speechless for a moment.

She had no idea how to refute Jack the Ripper's words.

However, this frustration soon turned into a new opportunity.

Jack the Ripper looked at the ventilation duct and continued:

"now that……"

"If you don't know either..."

"Then do you want to——"

"Come with me and find out?"

997. Shuten-doji: Children shouldn't listen! / The Three Little Ones' Late-Night Adventure (4k)

"..."

"..."

The invitation from Jack the Ripper suddenly plunged the room into silence.

After a while, Shuten-doji finally spoke:

"You mean, you want us to go in with you?"

"OK."

Jack the Ripper nodded.

"Since you don't know what's going on, shouldn't you come with me to find out?"

Having said that, Jack the Ripper showed an expectant look.

"You guys won't reject me, right—"

"This one……"

Shuten-doji showed an embarrassment.

To be honest, Jack the Ripper's words did make her heart beat a little bit - after all, being able to understand something that you have no idea what it is is obviously a happy thing.

But the problem is...

If that were the case, what just happened might have happened—falling from the ventilation duct into someone else's room.

If uncle knew about this...

Shuten-doji couldn't help but shudder.

Every time this happened, she would subconsciously look to the side, hoping to get some useful answers from her close friend Ibaraki Douji.

however……

When Shuten-doji turned around, she saw an unexpected scene.

I saw that the place where Ibaraki Douji was supposed to be sitting was now empty.

Instead—

She had crawled to the entrance of the ventilation duct without knowing when, and was waving at Shuten-douji from there.

"Shuten, come in quickly."

"Let's go find out what's going on!"

"Great!"

Jack the Ripper gave a thumbs-up to Ibaraki Douji for his quick movements.

It can be seen that as a "killer", she really likes people who act decisively and without dragging their feet.

There was a pop.

Jack the Ripper also climbed into the ventilation duct.

She huddled together with Ibaraki-douji, and together they looked at Shuten-douji, who was shocked by the two men's behavior.

"Won't you come?"

"This may be a rare opportunity for you—"

"You, we, eh..."

Shuten-doji sighed helplessly.

She had expected everything, but she had never expected her good friend Ibaraki Douji to be so excited.

"alright."

"We'll be there soon!"

Huh.

The room was shrouded in darkness again. The only difference was the empty bed.

Ten minutes later.

inside the ventilation duct.

To be honest, Shuten-doji probably never dreamed that one day he would be crawling like a puppy in this not-so-big ventilation duct.

To be honest, she felt a little depressed inside.

but……

If we could figure out what was going on, crawling forward like this would have its meaning.

However, the following conversation completely overturned Shuten-doji's original expectations.

"How long are we going to have to keep climbing like this?"

Shuten-doji, who was at the end of the team, couldn't help but ask this question to the two teammates in front of him.

Ibaraki Douji did not answer her friend seriously as usual - after all, she really didn't know the answer to this question.

All expectations are actually on Jack the Ripper.

however……

Jack the Ripper suddenly stopped and turned around and said.

"I don't know either."

"Eh, you don't know?!"

Shuten-doji suddenly raised his head, and then bumped into the ventilation duct with a bang.

Fortunately, she didn't use too much force when she raised her head, so she didn't break the ventilation duct with her horns.

"What a joke!"

"We only came in because you said we could figure out what was going on!"

"..."

"sorry."

Jack the Ripper apologized very seriously.

"I didn't explain it in detail. It was indeed my problem."

"After all, I really want to find out what 'Dad' is doing——"

"I'm really sorry if this has caused you any trouble."

Although Jack the Ripper's tone sounded a little cold, anyone could feel that she was apologizing from the bottom of her heart.

Shuten also felt a little guilty because of this.

She had just said it casually, and she didn't expect Jack the Ripper to apologize like this.

“It’s okay, we want to too.”

Ibaraki Douji's words temporarily broke the silent atmosphere.
