[A little addition]

[In the previous choice difference, triggering 6 Vivian, 7 Gray, 8 Mordred, and 9 Webber actually entered the small branch line of the 'Fairy Round Table'. The difference lies in the different angles of entry]

[Specifically, except for Weber in the middle 9, the first three options are all Lu Mingfei will directly participate in this branch, only option 9 is indirect]

【To be specific, this is——】

☆Text☆

——When talking about the famous detectives of the Victorian era, the first reaction of most people is the Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street in London.

However, strictly speaking, Holmes is not a detective in the broad sense. He distinguishes himself by positioning himself as a "consulting detective".

The work of most detectives is mostly about doing small things such as tracking and investigating cheating, or all kinds of cats and dogs.

Many times, so-called detectives are more like bounty hunters.

The most famous detective organization in the world is called Pinkerton Detective Company, which was founded in 1850.

If you think about it carefully, this can be regarded as a misunderstanding, because Holmes is so famous and he is the "originator of detectives in most people's impressions" that Chaldea and others did not deliberately look for this when they were looking for Kong Ming. direction to find.

When Kong Ming found Lu Mingfei himself and made some inquiries, Lu Mingfei found out that the identity Kong Ming was assigned to in the fairy tale world was actually not a student or teacher, but a private detective in the magic world.

If you think about it this way, when Chaldea formed a group to go out to London, they might have missed the subplot related to Weber and the others. After all, Lilim who wants to do bad things and the android girls who want to fight criminals happened to meet each other. On.

Actually, the title of detective in the magic world is quite nonsense. After all, in the magic world, murder cases and other things, such as dead people killing themselves after death, can be considered normal, and there is basically no evidence or anything to rely on. spectrum.

Of course, complaints are complaints, although Kong Ming—let’s call him Weber for now.

Although the magic detective Mr. Weber also had his memory covered by the effect of the fairy tale world, according to convention, the memory coverage of the fairy tale world cannot affect a person's nature and abilities.

Now that Weber has come to the door, we should find a way to keep him, and then throw him to Da Vinci, and let Da Vinci assign him research work.

First listen to what Magic Detective Mr. Weber wants.

"My assistant is missing, but I heard recently that she seems to have been sighted here in the school and in your team. Can you help me?"

He looked quite uneasy.

Weber's assistant? Lu Mingfei shook his head, putting aside the appearance of Kurisu Makise, the heroine of "Steins Gate" that subconsciously appeared in his mind after hearing the term 'assistant', and looked at Weber carefully. It didn't take long to realize who the assistant in Weber's mouth was referring to.

The person who is always following Weber, and the Chaldean team has not found it yet, and whose whereabouts are unknown - isn't that Gray?

But there’s no Gray in Lu Mingfei’s team. Why did Weber find Gray here?

Just when Lu Mingfei was confused, Eliyi tugged on his sleeve.

By the way, in Lu Mingfei's recent life, apart from being followed by his secretary's silly talk when he was doing some serious business, most of the time, he was silently followed by the follower Eri Yi.

There is no other reason. The main reason is that Eriyi cannot help in other aspects of work (even not as good as Lu Mingfei in this aspect). She is not interested in exams or anything. She has nothing to do all day, so she naturally becomes Lu. The little human tail.

Eryi looked at Weber, then at Lu Mingfei, and then pointed at her face.

"You can talk." Lu Mingfei reminded.

Eriyi was stunned for a moment, and a gust of wind blew up her conspicuous long copper-colored hair. Only then did the stupid girl suddenly realize and said:

"It's the face. Gray's face is exactly the same as Mordred's face."

".Yes."

Only then did Lu Mingfei remember this.

I don’t know why, but I always feel that the frequency of King Arthur’s face is unexpectedly high.

Lu Mingfei was not a person who was good at verbal explanations, so he simply took Weber to see Mordred. After discovering that Mordred was not the Gray he was looking for, Weber had a disappointed expression on his face - but He just drank a glass of water and immediately cheered up again.

"Although you are not Gray, you look so similar - no, except for your hair color and temperament, you are exactly the same! You must be related, right? Are you sisters? Do you have any older sisters?"

Weber's somewhat reckless questioning made Mordred very unhappy.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei was sharp-eyed and stopped the excited Weber before he wanted to hold down Mordred with both hands and shake him, thus avoiding the danger of the grumpy Mordred getting angry.

"I don't have that kind of thing about my sister! Don't mention that to me!"

By the way, there are surprisingly many words in this world that would make Miss Mordred feel uncomfortable and then go berserk like setting off firecrackers.

In addition to not being able to call her a woman or a man, which are basic NG words, I didn't expect that the relatives and sisters part wouldn't work either.

".Um?"

Speaking of this, because of the interaction between Weber and Mordred, especially when Weber expressed his desire to meet Mordred's family, Lu Mingfei thought of something a little bit behind the scenes. thing.

Regardless of Mordred herself, the role she was assigned on the stage of this fairy tale world was Draco Malfoy, the opponent of the protagonists in "Harry Potter".

This is a somewhat complicated character, and of course it can be said to be very traditional. He is a villain, and his family are basically not good people. However, in the later stages of the story, he himself jumped to join the protagonist group, which is commonly known as of whitewashing

But his family, especially his father, is different. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a real villain.

With the attitude of giving it a try, Lu Mingfei revealed this part of the information to Weber.

Weber's mind turned quickly, and he immediately realized what to do next.

"Mordred!" He looked at Mordred impatiently, "I'm not saying you have a problem, I'm saying - do you remember your two followers?"

"Those two annoying guys? I must have ignored them long ago." Mordred frowned, looking at Lu Mingfei's face, and endured not getting angry.

"No! You may be a good person, but those two followers of yours - your parents? They were sent by your parents to be your followers. They have direct contact with your parents. Haven't you tried Contact your parents?"

"parents?"

Mordred was a little dumbfounded.

"Where can I have it?"

"Ahem!" Lu Mingfei quickly interrupted with a fake cough, and then vaguely reminded Mordred, "The person assigned to your role as parent in this 'fairy tale world' should exist. Didn't they contact you?"

"No. Is there any?"

The more Mordred recalled, the less confident he became.

"It always feels like there is no one. It seems that a letter has been sent? But because these are just background settings, I don't intend to call strangers I don't know as my father and mother."

"What if it's not?" Lu Mingfei quickly reminded Mordred of another possibility, "What if it's an acquaintance of yours. For example, your father and mother are playing the role of your parents?"

"Impossible, my father, her spirit base has now manifested in that Alice Watson! So just——"

Mordred's face suddenly turned pale.

"Mother. Mother? Mother!?"

When the third consonant came out, Mordred was already shaking like a sieve.

Lu Mingfei was also shocked. This Mordred has been acting like a little bully all day long. He can't be said to do evil in school, but he can also be regarded as doing whatever he wants. Unexpectedly, he just recalled a title and suddenly trembled. This is it.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but touched him and wanted to ask what was wrong, but Mordred turned pale on the spot, holding his head and squatting on the ground as if he was suffering from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).

Lu Mingfei and Eriki felt at a loss, but Weber, who was watching Mordred's reaction, was different. If Lu Mingfei hadn't been quick to hold him up with his quick eyesight, he almost fainted on the spot.

☆

Lu Mingfei learned about his and Gray's story from Weber for the first time.

Of course, Lu Mingfei didn't know whether this story was the real story of Weber and Gray, but at least it was the story of Weber and Gray in this fairy tale world.

The story itself is not that special in Lu Mingfei's opinion.

Generally speaking, there is such a family with an ancient heritage. They have very great ancestors. They have been passed down from generation to generation and have one wish - to resurrect their great ancestor.

This wish itself is not that rare, but the problem lies in the way they resurrect their ancestors: they will select people from the descendants who are similar to their ancestors, use magic rituals to transform them into the appearance of their ancestors, and then in When everything is ready, separate the souls of future generations from their own bodies, and then welcome back the souls of their ancestors.

To put it bluntly, one lucky descendant must become a sacrifice for the resurrected ancestor. So who is this lucky descendant?

That's right, it's Grey.

After looking at Mordred's reaction, Lu Mingfei felt that this matter was most likely not a bad rumor, but something that Mordred's mother, synonymous with witch, Morgan Le Fay, really did. matter.

Maybe this is not a script in this fairy tale world, but something that is also happening in the history of the real world.

(. Objectively speaking, this kind of story is quite reasonable)

According to Lu Mingfei's "well-read" experience, Gray's disappearance should mean that she would be captured as a sacrifice, and then Weber would chase her. After Weber recovered and rescued Gray, the two of them would have made a perfect relationship. ——Anyway, in Lu Mingfei’s impression, this kind of story usually follows this routine.

But it’s hard to say in reality.

If it's too late, we won't be able to find anyone.

"Sakura!" Eriki tightened her grip on Lu Mingfei's arm.

Perhaps it was because this girl was usually stern and expressionless, but in contrast, Lu Mingfei actually felt that she was the most nervous and anxious at this moment.

"Go and save her! Save Xiao Hui (Gray)!"

"I've already told Leonardo about this!"

"What did DaVinci-chan say?"

"..." Lu Mingfei wiped the sweat from her forehead, "She said... It's very similar to what Morgan le Fay would do, and there is a high probability that Morgan le Fay's 'resurrection' of King Arthur is to avenge King Arthur. As for the sacrificed I'm afraid she didn't pay attention to the sacrifice from beginning to end. Hey, wait a minute!"

Lu Mingfei and Nagao Kagetora quickly hugged Eriki, who almost fainted.

Ahu cast a reproachful look at Lu Mingfei: "Why did you tell her this!"

"Ah? My fault? But I don't know what to say. Alas! Xiao Mo, please stop holding your head and defending me!"

Lu Mingfei stuffed Eliyi into Ahu's arms, and then quickly pulled the shivering Mordred up from the ground: "Stop shivering! Tell me about those two of yours that you have been ignoring. Where is your follower!"

Weber, who was pale next to him, immediately followed and shouted: "We want to find Gray's family through them. Find Morgan Le Fay! We must hurry!"

"Yes, yes!" Lu Mingfei nodded quickly, "The real world is not a game. If you trigger the task and leave it alone, it will not advance to the next step! We must act quickly!"

Lu Mingfei became a little irritable for the rare occasion, and even began to think seriously about whether to cheat on the little devil.

You must act immediately!

Yes, I don’t know how strong this Morgan Le Fay is, but after hearing the news, Olga Marie gave me some advice:

"No matter how powerful she is, Morgan is essentially a magician, so fantasy species - especially the highest-ranking dragon species with powerful magic properties are her nemesis!"

Olga Marie's meaning is simple:

"Bring Mikazuki with you! With her facing the magician, we will be flying dragons riding on the face!"

"Where is this enough!?"

Lu Mingfei slapped his forehead and made a prompt decision!

"Gather your friends! Let's all come together! Let this Morgan Le Fay have a taste of what a brave-style righteous beating is!"

Lu Mingfei immediately asked Da Vinci to communicate with the principal, saying that the life safety of some students was seriously threatened. Then, without caring about Mordred's reaction, he directly dragged her up and asked as many possible questions as possible. With the useful clues, he rushed to the station of the March Moon team.

Holmes is over there, and this time no matter how many excuses he makes to fish, Lu Mingfei will drag him up to work! What if he still doesn't want to? Then Lu Mingfei, just Lu Mingfei, let San Riyue beat him!

Lu Mingfei's idea is very beautiful.

But we immediately ran into problems when we actually took action.

Sanriyue didn't seem to notice anything wrong, and happily welcomed the arrival of a large group of people including Lu Mingfei. For some reason, the other three android girls were also there.

"Lulu? (Lu Mingfei: Why did your name change again?) You came just in time. We are just welcoming a big guest. Look, this is the Queen of the Goblins, Her Majesty Morgan Le Fay. "

Lu Mingfei: ".?"
