The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today

Episode 46

Translator : Missme Editor : Aru

Well, since the pickpocket was a child, I might just think that he acted like that because he knew I couldn’t chase him because of our age difference. And when I look at it again, the child’s skill at stealing money purse was real.

No matter how young he is, I could guess that he was a child who would have had such a thick head in that kind of industry and would have known that such a clumsy touch would not help him live.

‘In the end, it was concluded that he was a suspicious pickpocket.’

And since then my alertness has naturally been amplified.

I went through something so blatantly suspicious as soon as I went out, anyone must be suspicious.

So I raise my alertness. Then, from then on, the things I could see wherever I went were spectacles.

I passed the shouting and fighting in the dark alley without thinking about it a bit.

‘A sudden arm-wrestling competition in this kind of place? Even if you look at the reaction of the pedestrians around, it looks like they’re in a hurry. The organizer is unclear, and what is the awkward response between the host and the audience?’

The sword competition is even more suspicious.

‘What if you get hurt? You’re really using a knife at a street event like this. There’s no protection. What’s wrong with the referee? Oh, that contestant’s eyes are on me during the competition. Where are you looking?’

So I pretend that I didn’t know.

Alas, Sir Davery played word games with them and avoided everything.

“Then you knew all about it…..”

“Of course.”

I thought Sir Davery would notice that I knew, so I played along with him.

But he wasn’t?

“Well, then what if I really didn’t know and asked you to participate in that low arm wrestling competition?”

“At that time… I would have suddenly held my right arm and pretended to be sick.”

Oops.

“Rather than doing that, isn’t it better to be honest and say that they’re suspicious?”

“If you do that, my lady will–”

“Scared?”

“……”

“It’s okay. Well, if I didn’t really know, I might have been surprised to hear it.”

But I knew. There’s no way I couldn’t know.

As I’m talking, their nonsense and unidentified people had been so clumsy.

-Even later, it got worse. Would the people’s faces look just the same?

And now all of them were gone, so it was too obvious.

I ignored both the suspicious arm wrestling and sword competitions.

But there’s an attack that came to me secretly, like a chicken skewer attack.

When I remembered it, I was stunned again. I said, complaining.

“No, not at all. Didn’t you think I wouldn’t have noticed anything suspicious after the chicken skewer attack?”

“That’s…”

Sir Davery blurted out his words as if he had nothing to say about it.

Chicken skewer attack.

It refers to a passerby walking across the street suddenly throwing a chicken skewer in my hand aiming at my chest.

I was really dumbfounded then.

What are they doing?

‘Do they really have the will not be caught?’

Don’t they have any intention of hiding?

He said it was a mistake, but it was not a mistake. There’s no way some people would accidentally throw a chicken skewer like that.

“It was really great how my lady avoided it back then.”

Sir Davery glanced back. But I responded because it was true.

“I think so, too.”

I was half lucky, but I avoided the chicken skewer anyway.

In fact, I was surprised even after avoiding it. I didn’t know I’d avoid it.

It just happened to come to my senses that I had already avoided it.

“I didn’t know my body was so agile.”

When I escaped the chicken skewer attack aiming for my chest, the dumb face of that passerby comes to mind.

‘Whoot.’

Didn’t he look so proud?

And I’ll just keep quiet about the last rascal that appeared after the chicken skewer attack.

I feel like I’m wasting my time to mention that the man who showed up with a greasy wink from the start was so blatantly suspicious.

After a short recollection, I bit the tanghulu in my hand.

As the hard sugar coats broke, the taste of ripe pulp spread in the mouth as fresh as if ventilating the head.

I opened my mouth looking at the tip of the tanghulu.

“By the way, what was the purpose of those people?”

Kidnapping and confinement?

Threats, extortion?

‘Did I look like I had money and rich.”

In Korea, or on Earth, where people lived in their previous lives, it was not unusual for criminal groups to kidnap children from wealthy families for ransom.

It was the same case in a society where security and investigation methods are much more advanced than here, but it was not surprising that similar things happened here.

If I were surprised…It’s… it’s…

‘It would mean that I am so clumsy…’

So……

Oh, but that doesn’t mean it’s very pleasant.

As a result, nothing happened, but it wasn’t a very pleasant thing to be a target of such a shady intention.

‘If I had known this, I would have let Sir Davery give the last guy a blow instead of letting him go quietly.’

I regret, but not belated regret, then Sir Davery’s reply was heard.

“Well, I don’t know.”

“Huh? Is that just an answer to my question? That insincere word?”

“They may have resentment against my lady, so I think the reasoning is limited……..”

“Why is this because of resentment against me!”

I made a hawk. I was dumbfounded, so I swung fruit candy instead of weapons, and Sir Davery avoided it.

Ah.

‘I miss Dylan.’

Dylan, how are you? Is it a good place to stay there?

I was about to mourn for her, who had beaten Sir Davery exactly once. As if he could read my mind, Sir Davery’s mouth opened.

“Lady.”

“Why?”

“I mean them. The people that were doing suspicious things around you a little while ago, they’d probably now be…..”

Maybe?

I waited silently for words to follow, but Sir Davery betrayed my expectations and swallowed his words back.

“…….no.”

“What is no? If you said it, you have to finish it, to make a person fall into vain. Why would you stop?”

“I’m sorry.”

No, but if he apologizes like this, I have nothing to say.

“That’s fine. I think I’ll know even if I don’t listen to it. You’re trying to say they’re gone from the world because they’re bad guys, they’re being punished by Heaven, right?”

“You read my mind, my lady. I just got little goosebumps.”

“Humph.”

I hope so.

But it was then. A carriage glided to a halt next to me and Sir Davery, who exchanged small noises.

When I looked at it in a strange way, the door burst open and a half-baked face appeared.

“Here you are, Princess.”

“Viscount?”

Somehow the moustache, more familiar than the facial features, twitched rhythmically.

“I came out of business. I stopped the carriage because I saw the princess. Are you enjoying your outing?”

“Oh, yes. Well.”

“That’s a relief. It’s late. May I take you to the mansion?”

His words made me glance up at the sky.

It was late, but before I knew it, there was a reddish sunset in the sky.

When did this happen? Time flies. Maybe it’s because I saw the play in the middle.

“I’ll be indebted to you, then.”

“What do you mean, that’s my pleasure.”

Undaunted by Lucas’ suggestion, I got on the carriage with Sir Davery.

The carriage was so soft and fluffy. Maybe because of the good sitting feeling, as soon as I got seated, my body, who had been walking around for a long time, complained of fatigue like a ghost.

I looked out of the window and held back the yawn that was about to come out.

“I apologize again for the snake in the morning. I heard you were very surprised.”

“No…”

“I will never let that happen again.”

“Yes…”

Oh, I’m sleepy. Maybe because the carriage is going so slowly.

I couldn’t hear what Lucas was saying because I was concentrating on getting rid of sleepiness.

‘I listened with one ear, I shed with one ear, I answered like a machine, and then I opened my mouth to what suddenly came to mind.’

“Oh, my lord. I’ve been through a few strange things on my way out today.”

“Yes?”

“Maybe there’s a bad group on the land. A human trafficking organization or something like that.”

Anyway, Lucas is currently in charge of managing the territory.

He needs to know and deal with that part, right?

Lucas couldn’t hide his embarrassment at my words and soon replied.

“Oh, yes. I’ll strengthen the security forces and make sure they get everything. I’m sorry for inconveniencing you.”

“Please.”

It’ll be too much to let them die and go to the underworld, so go to prison instead.

The last stop for the bad guys is a prison after all right?

Soon the carriage stopped. It was not a long way, so the arrival was quick.

“……I’ll send security to the underworld.”

“What?”

I suddenly heard Lucas’ voice as I got off the carriage.

Looking back, the opponent shook his head.

“No.”

Did I hear it wrong?

I soon abandoned my lingering attachment and set foot to the mansion.

“Lady! You’re here? How was the sight of the land?”

Bessie held a kitchen knife in her hand and said that.

She welcomed me.

No, why a kitchen knife?

“Uh……it was fun.”

“Really? How much fun is it?”

Is it my misunderstanding that the future of Sir Davery will depend on the answer? The kitchen knife was sharp as if it was polished.

I hate him but at the same time I worry about him, so

“Out of ten– Um, nine points?”

“Oh, you must have had a lot of fun.”

Bessie lowered the kitchen knife. Phew.

Then she saw the knife in her hand and was startled.

“Oh my! Why is this here?”
