The Traveling Hero Won't Let the Innkeeper's Son Escape

The prince of the subhuman kingdom has a backhouse or something...... should be twelve

Wonok, who then also had Ruth left, is expelled from the room with him. There's no place to put the body, so they put a simple key on it and seal this room until the blizzard stops and you can get out. It's a shame you can't go back to your room, but you won't have a choice. Ruth walks out when he holds the luggage he took out all the way. But along the way I noticed Wonok stopping with the lamp.

"Mr. Wonock? What's wrong, sir?

"Ruth, it's a man named Herald."

"Yes."

"He's alive."

"Huh!?

Surprised by Wonock's words, Ruth stopped and stuffed.

"Duh, what do you mean? He said he was alive, but his breathing, his heart sounds, his pulse stopped..."

"That guy, he's a sub, right?

"Ha, yes. Probably."

"As far as I can tell, those eyes and long tongues, and the scaly skin of the tibia that I noticed earlier when I turned my clothes, that's the characteristic of a snake-borne subhuman."

"Snek system......"

Snake is a word that refers to animals that resemble snakes. They don't see much in Ruth's mountains, but they also live in the woods and in the water in warm areas. I knew it because it was rarely found in Daniel's butcher's shop as a delicacy.

"As the nature of the Snake system, there is a defensive instinct to put oneself in a state where life phenomena cannot be seen from the appearance of temporary death when suddenly falling in body temperature. I've been listening to my heart sounds, but I could tell they were moving, although they were terribly slow. He's not dead just because he's on probation right now."

"So, but Mr. Julia, his father, nothing."

"When you're a subhuman, you won't have a chance of a state of temporary death. I guess I didn't know your father or that long-heared Rapid sub, maybe not even in person. That's how hard it is to be human."

"Why is Mr. Wonok………………?

"Because I know things."

Wonok looked good and laughed. That confident face became reliable and Ruth laughed unexpectedly. I already know that Wonok is as knowledgeable about the species as the scholars. I thought it was believable enough.

If I had been in that room, I would have felt a little clearer wondering if I had been helped by Herald.

Again, the other world cannot be a glimmer.

When Ruth put his luggage on the spot, he tried to rush to Rossa's place with only a lamp. But the moment I tried to run out, Wonok grabbed my arm.

"Where are you going?

"Where are you going? I need my father to open the key and wake Mr. Herald up."

"Stop it."

"Eh?"

Calmly returned, Ruth frowns. When I hit the question as to why, I was sighed.

"Subpeople in a state of provisional death can die if they wake up normally. It's safer to have a church priest or something who can use healing techniques. Besides..."

"And?"

My expression disappeared from Wonok's face, which I was good at talking about somewhere.

"I think. I wonder if it was really an accident."

A chill runs on the spine of Zokri and Ruth.

"What do you mean?

"The village is in the mountains, and there is a wind flow from the entrance towards the river that runs through the square towards the village chief's house. This will never happen because the wind was flowing like that when the snow started blowing."

It is true that the direction of the village wind is always constant and does not change much. Ruth also remembered that the wind in the square was unusually strong when she returned to the inn.

"And while this inn faces the square, it's built vertically toward the mountain. And that room is on the best mountain side. And the Boro family I lived in is in the direction of the village chief's house... you know what that means?

"The wind is the other way around... there's no way things are flying from the house next door"

"That's right. There was wind and snow in the room, but the snowstorm wind with it was beautiful for it to hit directly. I was also concerned that there were few pieces of wood in the window that should have broken. In that angled window in that room, things should not fly and windows should not break."

When Ruth was also anxious to see how the herald was doing, he thought the wind was blowing, but it wasn't so much that he couldn't see around him that he could normally examine the condition. The landscape letter Alec gave me was just groping around the room. If things were windy enough to fly, the indoors wouldn't have been that bad.

"Of course, the direction of the wind can never change. Nor do I deny the possibility that I've flown by chance. But just think about the fact that you should not be too distracted."

"... What do you mean?

"Someone could have created a situation in that room after killing Herald. Well, the stuffing was too sweet to kill."

Wonok smiles faintly. I felt that my golden eyes were slightly red.

'Stay down that man is alive. Otherwise he might be killed again.' Wonok left with such ominous words.

Ruth felt a cold sweat flowing as she watched the lamp in her hand shake, imagining the presence of a murderer who might be there.
