Watch the movie supporting role replacement, the doctor is back to health

He didn't mean to do that...of course.

However, the guilt of killing his trusted companions still lingers in Natsuki Subaru's heart.

[I must die quickly, I must die immediately! ]

In his panic, Natsuki Subaru didn't care whether he died in pain or not. He frantically grabbed around his body unconsciously. Then an idea flashed through his mind. He quickly crawled to the Goblin Slayer, pulled out the opponent's dagger, and was about to slash his neck with it.

call out--

A football hit his sword hand and knocked the sword out of his hand.

football.

……

football?!

Natsuki Subaru's eyes brightened a little.

He glanced at the football, then followed his gaze to where the football was flying.

There, a handsome little boy, wearing the same children's suit and shorts he wore when he came, stood there.

【Conan? 】

[Big Brother Natsuki——]

Conan's face was heavy, and his voice was no longer as sickly sweet as usual.

After walking over quickly, Conan checked the Goblin Slayer's body in a strange and experienced manner. After confirming that the other party was dead, Conan stood up and looked at Natsuki Subaru with a complicated expression.

[Can you tell me what happened here? ]

[…Why are you here…]

[I am somewhat concerned about Mr. Goblin Slayer, so...]

【You are following us? ! 】

[——Just curious.]

[Curiosity—Curiosity!! Hahahaha!! Curious!! Yeah! You saw it all, right?! I killed him! I killed Goblin Slayer!]

Spearman: Puff!

Lu Jin: Young man, please be more considerate.

Enterprise (Kanmusume): …

[I believe you didn’t mean it…]

[But the fact is that I killed Goblin Slayer! ]

Natsuki Subaru's expression was ferocious. [So, leave me alone, Conan, and get out of the way! I will save everyone! ! ]

This is the only way.

After learning of the death of Emilia and everyone in the mansion, Natsuki Subaru needed to make up his mind before deciding to commit suicide.

And when Goblin Slayer died in front of him because of his own faults, Natsuki Subaru just hoped that he would die quickly and not stay in this round for even a minute!

But he still had the dignity of an elder, and he didn't want the 7-year-old Conan to see him committing suicide in front of him, so he swung his sword hard in front of him, pretending to be crazy in an attempt to force Conan back - maybe his current madness was not just an act.

In his expectation, Conan, still a child, would either continue to persuade him or be frightened by his current appearance and run away.

But what surprised him was that Conan didn't choose any of the paths. Instead, he lowered his head for a while and suddenly said: [Can your death save everything? ]

【What do you mean? ! 】

Subaru Natsuki thought Conan was going to talk about some profound truth. Although it was a bit outrageous to preach to a 7-year-old child, it would not be strange if Conan was instilled with some high-sounding words by his parents at this age.

Conan's next words once again overturned his expectations.

[I don’t want you to end your life in this way. This is irresponsible to yourself and your parents and relatives——]

【I--】

【But! 】

Conan interrupted Natsuki Subaru. [Your suicide behavior was not caused by self-abandonment, but by the idea of really wanting to save everything, is that right?]

[Conan, why are you...]

【These are just some guesses.】

Conan pushed his finger against his nose but hit nothing. He then remembered that he had put his glasses away because no one in the other world knew him.

【However, it seems that my guess was correct. 】

[Who are you——]

Natsuki Subaru sat on the ground. He looked at the 7-year-old boy who smiled unusually calmly and composedly in front of him. The complicated feelings in his heart almost made his head explode.

This was the type he hated—radiant, confident and handsome.

Talent and hard work have made this little boy bear the fruits of a winner in life prematurely. This fruit is like a mirror. In the rosy and smooth color, Natsuki Subaru's past of having neither talent nor hard work is reflected more and more prominently.

However, surprisingly, at least at this moment, he did not feel sad or jealous about it - instead he felt a little surprised and comforted.

[Let me introduce myself again. My name is Kudo Shinichi, a famous detective. ]

Conan, Shinichi's eyes moved slightly.

Even though this was a different world completely different from the one he had lived in before, his next words were undoubtedly too cruel for himself.

[Next time, if there really is a "next time", just call my name like this, and I will give you some advice, whether it is appropriate or not - at least, you should not fight alone anymore. ]

[Conan——]

Natsuki Subaru's heart was suddenly filled.

[I understand, Shinichi! Ah~, I will trouble you as much as I can! ]

【Yeah? 】

Conan stood up straight, his eyes fixed. [Then, goodbye.]

【Ah, goodbye! 】

puff...

Chapter 158: Fourth Week, Box!

[Subaru-kun? What's wrong, Subaru-kun? Why is your expression so strange?]

[Ah, what? Strange... Is my expression weird? ]

[Yes, it seems like crying, but also like laughing - are you okay? Do you want to rest for a while? ]

[No, nothing... I just feel so happy to see Emilia's lovely face again on such a beautiful morning! ]

[Subaru-kun?! Really~, you said something like that again~]

[It seems like there is really no problem~]

[Well, now that Subaru-kun's matter has been resolved, let's talk about some serious matters. ]

Natsuki Subaru knew what was going to happen next because he had experienced the same thing twice before.

Because of the merit of helping Emilia retrieve the important emblem of the King's Choice, Roswaal is willing to reward them. He generously said that he can let Subaru and his benefactors choose what they want, and depending on the choice, the result will directly affect Natsuki Subaru's life -

【I want to work in Gongguan! 】

After the painful failure last weekend, Natsuki Subaru will not choose the wrong option this time.

It's nothing~, isn't it just that while secretly investigating the witch and the two women, you have to make your actions as open and aboveboard as possible so that Ram and Rem won't suspect you?

This kind of thing is a piece of cake!

Okabe Rintaro: ...For Natsuki-san, the most painful summer is probably about to begin.

Shinpei Amiyo: It makes me miss those days~. The situation on my side can still be dealt with with guns, explosives and the like, and I also have partners I can win over. Natsuki-san can only rely on herself.

Fujinuma Satoru: No, Natsuki-san also has a companion he can trust, as long as he is willing to believe.

Hattori Heiji: That's right! Kudo will definitely be able to come up with a way out!

What happened next was the same as the previous two rounds. Padu said she wanted to leave the mansion, and Roswaal gave her a large sum of money. The others said they wanted to stay in the mansion and accept Roswaal's care.

The difference is next: After breakfast, Subaru Natsuki immediately followed Ram and Rem to familiarize himself with the work in the mansion.

With the experience gained in the second round, Natsuki Subaru showed a very high adaptability, an ability that even the sharp-tongued Ram often nodded in agreement.

At the same time, Natsuki Subaru learned his lesson and always reminded himself not to act too familiar with the mansion. In addition, he worked very hard, and by the time they parted in the evening, Rem's attitude towards him had become very close - at least better than at any time in the previous week.

Even here, Natsuki Subaru's work is not finished yet!

Because of his work in the mansion, he estimated that he would not have much time left to investigate the Witch Cult.

Therefore, he had to develop an assistant - the children who had free time besides being educated by the maids in the mansion were good candidates.

Although there was nothing wrong with visiting his companions during a break, Subaru Natsuki still informed Rem before parting.

Rem said that Natsuki Subaru, who had just arrived at the mansion, might not be able to find where the children's rooms were, so she offered to help lead the way at night. Natsuki Subaru gladly accepted her suggestion and silently broke out in a cold sweat.

[That was a close call. If I had taken a wrong step, my head would have been smashed into a rotten watermelon by the meteor hammer, right? ]

After dinner, Natsuki Subaru and Rem, who came to visit him, went to the children's room together.

Natsuki Subaru knocked on each door and gathered everyone except Goblin Slayer in Paddy's room, then happily chatted with them.

Rem was a little wary of such a scene, but she also knew that it was not appropriate for her to stay here any longer.

So, after watching Subaru play freely for a few minutes, Rem said goodbye. She stayed outside the room for a long time, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual in the room, she moved to a room a little further away to monitor Subaru and the others.

And Subaru was really just chatting with everyone.

He has decided to find Conan to be his helper, but the problem is that apart from Conan, he doesn't know whether it is good or bad for them to involve other people in his affairs.

Rosemary should also be able to be included in his team.

She showed incredible fighting ability last weekend and also showed a willingness to defend her teammates.

Therefore, if Subaru took the initiative to ask the other party for help, he believed that the other party would most likely agree.

What’s even more interesting is that Rosemary is different from the emotional Kotori and the good-natured Natsuyo. Her expressionless face is as deceptive as a master of cuckolding in a poker game.

No matter it is a lie or the truth, it will not be easy to be suspected with Rosemary's poker face + memory confusion buff.

However, apart from that, it would be too dangerous to allow others who have not yet demonstrated special abilities to join him in his search for the Witch Cult.

So Natsuki Subaru was just using the excuse of chatting with everyone to really chat with them and enhance their relationships - he actually suspected that since he had returned from the dead, Rosemary had telekinesis, Kotori was unknown, and Conan was unusually smart, the seemingly harmless Natsuyo might also have special abilities that he hadn't shown!

As for the Goblin Slayer with the iron can wrapped around his body and the subhuman Pado, their abnormalities were both manifested on the outside.

At least have a certain degree of combat ability - this is what Natsuki Subaru hopes for from the bottom of his heart.

Speaking of which... I remember that in the previous round, Rosemary and Goblin Slayer were both killed in the battle between Kotori and the Gut Hunter, but Natsuyo suddenly ran out at the last moment and tried to save his life?

Ok……

[What's wrong? Subaru-nii~]

【Nothing! 】

Xia Shi is such a good kid~

The time for bonding was over quickly, as he still had work to do tomorrow. Needless to say, getting enough sleep was essential in such a stressful and stimulating environment.

[Rem, have you been waiting for me? ]

Then, Natsuki Subaru, who proposed to adjourn the meeting, got bored with Rem who was holding the lamp soon after leaving Padu's room.

After a while of beating in his heart, Natsuki Subaru asked with a smile. Rem answered fluently: "On the way back to the room."

Rem glanced at Subaru's hand. [——Conan, do you want to go back with me?]

[Ah! We are going to have a manly conversation! So, he lives with me tonight.]

[Rem understood.]

A delicate and tender 7-year-old child did not arouse Rem's vigilance.

[Do you need Rem to lead the way? ]
