Chapter 210.1
Change of leadership and for the first time…
(Ojousama, checking the data, I see that the next one after the following car will be the same as the first car . )
The slow-paced investigation was finally starting to come to an end well past noon .
Basically, the fairies who didn’t need to eat were continuing their investigation as it was, but that wasn’t the case with Scarlet .
However, she was trained, so skipping a meal or two wouldn’t be a problem .
It’s just that she still needs to eat to achieve a perfect performance .
I have made sure she has portable food on her, so she will have to do that this time . This portable food, though, was made by the old ladies who cook food for the students at the hellish school, so it’s fully nutritional and it wouldn’t be a problem for Scarlet to continue her activities .
Right, she will be able to continue her activities .
In other words… the taste is the worst .
Scarlet didn’t seem to want to eat it if she could, but it’s convenient, so she was stuck with it this time .
I thought I could just make a normal sandwich to bring with her, but I respected her approach there .
To be honest, I’m not much of a cook, you know .
I haven’t done that since my reincarnation, not even once .
So in the end, it would be the maids who would make them .
In that case, it would be unwise for me to interfere .
(It seems to be the case from the looks of it, but… there’s a hole?)
(Yes, it seems to have been penetrated from the outside . However, the hole is only in one place, and since it managed to penetrate steel like that, just how powerful was the force behind it…?)
We have used a number of investigation-type sorcery spells and have some idea of the shape of the train buried in the small hill .
The shape of the lead car was streamlined with a spearheaded tip .
In other words, it was the shape often seen in Shinkansen .
However, there was a hole in the side of the leading car, which indicates that something might have happened there .
What’s more, the car, which is probably made of steel, had a hole in it that looked as if it had been pierced through like a paper with a finger .
In order to penetrate the armor of the car that was supposed to be quite strong, a great deal of force would have to be concentrated at a single point, otherwise the surrounding damage would have had to be much greater .
To a degree, that the entire leading car could have been gone without a trace .
But strangely enough, there was only one hole, and the lead car hadn’t vanished with it .
(Furthermore… this reaction . )
(Yes, something seems to be there . All of the gathered data is unknown . It’s a completely unknown existence . )
We don’t yet know what the presence in the lead car with the hole is, but the data collected indicates that an unknown object is present .
Although there are still a few cars between them, they are still quite close to each other .
Given the age of the Shinkansen, which Scarlet speculated on, it would be nonsense to install anti-intruder security only in the first car .
Therefore, it is difficult to guess what the unknown object is .
It could be something we know, or it could be something we don’t know at all .
As long as we don’t know what it is even if we collect data with sorcery, we can only confirm it directly .
Therefore——
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆
The leadership of the investigation that had been led by the fairies was promptly transferred to Scarlet by Natasha’s orders .
If something happened originally, Scarlet, who has brought in a large number of magic tools using my sorcery formula, and who has also layered a large number of defensive spells, was supposed to deal with it, so it may be a natural course of actions .
I’ve already informed the investigative team that an unknown object has been identified in the lead car, and of course I’ve also informed Natasha and the others .
The team of investigators and the experts in the conference room understand the capabilities of my sorcery, so they were quick to agree with me .
Even so, the reason why the investigation team had been leading the charge until now was because of their experience .
But from here on out, it was an emergency .
Although they are an experienced team of investigators who have investigated many flotsams, this does not mean that they have done so without any damage .
If my sorcery can reduce the amount of damage, it’s better to use it .
They are people who think in terms of pros and cons, not pride .
Well, I think it’s for the best that Queen Natasha, the supreme authority of the fairies, gave her orders .
I knew the Queen was amazing .
So, the fairy investigation team is currently in the process of evacuating to the entrance of the building and carefully sealing off the entrance .
Scarlet was the only one left behind .
However, she has already activated a number of magic tools, and she herself was in a combat stance .
It’s not necessarily that a battle will happen, in fact, it’s more likely to be a sudden explosion or something .
I’ve heard that’s what’s happened with the flotsam so far .
I don’t think the Shinkansen I know of would explode suddenly, but there are unknowns when objects cross the dimensions .
Various possibilities have to be considered .
This means that unless the unknown object is a monster, Scarlet will be able to subdue or eliminate it .
At worst, if even Scarlet is no match for it, she can have her emergency magic tool activated and it won’t be a problem .
It would put quite a bit of strain on her, but at the very least, it would save her life .
Of course, it’s best not to use it, but I’ve made her carry it just in case .
Scarlet also has a good understanding of the function and the harm that comes with it, so she won’t make a mistake in using it .
