Re:Zero - Starting a Different World Industry

Chapter 18 Raising troops to investigate crimes

The next day, the heavy snow showed no sign of stopping.

Leon and the others went to sleep after they came back last night, and it was already midnight when they came back.

They took inventory in the warehouse and found that some candies were missing.

And all together it only weighs twenty kilograms.

So this made Leon more certain about who entered the warehouse last night.

On the breakfast table.

Laiya also learned that there was a thief in the warehouse last night. She didn't find any opportunity when she came back last night, so she asked now.

"Mr. Leon, was there any accident in the warehouse last night?"

"It's nothing serious. An old friend came into the warehouse to take something."

Leon smiled and said ambiguously.

"Old friend?"

Leia tilted her head and asked with some confusion.

"Well, you'll know tonight."

Leon said, just wiping his mouth after finishing breakfast.

An officer came in.

"Your Excellency the Duke, the troops have been assembled."

"Okay, got it, let's get ready to go!"

Leon stood up, put on his military coat, and said to the officer.

The officer nodded and immediately went out to give orders.

Leia also noticed their conversation at this moment.

"Sir Leon, are you going out?"

"Yes, I am going to visit that old friend."

Leon smiled and set off with his troops.

This time, Lyon and his team did not choose to take the low road, but chose to lead the troops to shovel snow all the way.

Leon was also busy shoveling snow with the soldiers.

This made many soldiers truly recognize this lord.

Lyon complained while shoveling snow.

The weather is really cold!

Leon was also wearing a hat, but he was still too cold to speak.

After more than a month of training, the soldiers could barely withstand the cold.

Soon, Lyon and his team shoveled their way all the way to their destination.

Looking at the small courtyard in front of him, Leon was a little at a loss, because he might not be able to defeat the people inside.

I came here today to seek an explanation, but if I'm unlucky I might end up in trouble.

Thinking of this, Leon glanced at the soldiers behind him.

Looking at the weapons in their hands, Leon gradually felt relieved.

What are you afraid of? Isn't he just a top-level expert?

I, Leon, am a man who wants to kill people!

Rush!

Leon gritted his teeth, walked to the door, and knocked.

Focus on one thing!

"Squeak~"

The door opened, and a girl with white fur, blue eyes, and bunny ears appeared before her.

"My Lord, what's the matter?"

A cold voice sounded.

Leon, who had just warmed up, shuddered.

"Shuangxing, did your sister go out last night?"

Leon still said it.

"What do you mean?"

Frost Star was a little confused.

"Something happened at the sugar factory warehouse last night. I met a female beastman with white hair and red eyes and rabbit ears..."

Before Leon could finish his words, Frost Star's cold eyes stared at him.

Lyon:…

"You mean my sister went to steal something last night?"

Frost Star looked at Leon as if he were a dead person.

Lyon:…

Okay, you are better than me, I admit defeat.

Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, just wait for me, I will definitely come back!

Just when Leon was about to follow his heart, Yanxin's head popped out.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Yanxin looked at everyone with innocent eyes.

"It's okay, it's really okay."

Leon saw the chocolate stains on Yanxin's mouth that had not been wiped off, and his mouth twitched as he spoke.

Frost Star also noticed the chocolate at the corner of Yan Xin's mouth at this moment.

Leon and Froststar looked at each other.

Leon: See, I was right, wasn't I?

Froststar: ...

Frost Star's face turned dark, and then he picked up Yan Xin.

Flame Heart: ⊙w⊙

Yanxin shuddered violently, then looked at Shuangxing with an innocent face, his ears drooped and his eyes full of pleading.

"Where did you go last night?"

Froststar asked coldly.

Flame Heart: (○?e?○)

"I've been at home the whole time!"

"Snapped!"

Frost Star looked at Yan Xin who was lying and slapped him on the butt.

Flame Heart: o(╥﹏╥)o

Yanxin looked so innocent, which made Shuangxing even angrier.

He raised his hand again.

"No, sister, I was wrong. I wanted to eat candy last night, so I went to get some. Sister, you didn't buy it for me, so I had to rely on myself..."

Yanxin said, holding his butt.

Frost Star's face turned black.

Lyon:…

Everyone:...

Will I be silenced?

This thought flashed through Leon's mind.

Then he shook his head and looked at Frost Star.

Frost Star stood there in a daze. After looking at Yan Xin who looked so pitiful, she finally softened her heart.

"Since she stole something, I'll pay for it."

Froststar spoke.

"Okay, 2 gold coins!"

Leon said harmlessly.

When Frost Star heard the price, he was stunned.

Just froze in place.

Two gold coins...

Frost Star glanced at the Flame Heart in his hand and felt very complicated.

Yan Xin suddenly felt a chill on his back, and then he realized that there was something wrong with the way his sister Shuang Xing looked at him.

Why does it feel like my sister is looking at me as if I were just some small change?

Frost Star sighed, then walked out carrying Flame Heart.

He handed the Flame Heart to Leon.

Flame Heart: d(?д??)

Lyon: (?Д?)

Frost Star: →_→

The air suddenly became quiet.

Leon spoke up.

"What does it mean?"

"I will lend you my sister to protect you during the winter of divine punishment."

Shuangxing said, holding his forehead.

"what?"

Lyon was stunned. What was going on?

Leon took a look at Yan Xin, who was being carried with a harmless look on his face, and fell into deep thought.

Will this protect me?

It seemed that he could see Leon's doubts.

Frost Star put Yan Xin down and spoke earnestly.

"Sister, you're in trouble, and I can't help you. See the guy next to you? Show your strength, and he'll take care of all your candies from now on!"

After Yan Xin heard this, his brain was burned.

She just heard it.

Tangtang was bought completely!

Sugar...

Yanxin's eyes were full of candy.

Then he looked suddenly at Leon.

Lyon suddenly felt like he was being targeted by a monster.

Then he started looking everywhere.

As soon as I saw Yan Xin, I saw Yan Xin suddenly jump up, condense a huge fireball in the air, then throw it out, and it exploded in the air.

"boom!"

A small sun lit up in the sky.

Lyon:…

Everyone:...

Before everyone could recover from the shock, Yan Xin landed and walked towards Leon.

The soldiers immediately protected Leon.

Yan Xin walked right in front of them, then suddenly looked up, scaring everyone.

Then Yan Xin spoke.

"Sugar! I'm hungry! Give it to me!"

Lyon:…

Did I bring back a father?

Leon was silent and glanced at Frost Star beside him.

An expression of relief flashed across Frost Star's face.
