Dungeon Exploration with Absolute Accuracy ~ Level Up by Shooting Arrows from a Safe Zone ~

Kidnapping

Skipping my hunting, I managed to get to Rin and her family’s house.

However, unlike when I came here before, people were moving around in a flurry of activity.

There were police cars, ambulances, and onlookers.

And there were people carrying weapons that looked like explorers.

“What is this?”

What I saw was a sight worse than I had imagined.

The police had already arrived and set the regulation lines.

In addition, there was a hole in the fence and wall of Rina’s house and a car with a wrecked front part.

And a short distance from Rina’s house, there were two people, Rin and Anju, along with some police and explorers.

“Rin! Anju!”

I called them.

They turn around and look a little relieved.

The police at the regulation line must have thought I was related to Rin and the others because they let me through.

I hurry toward them.

“Kaede-san, I’m sorry I got you into this mess.”

“I’m sorry I wasn’t strong enough …….”

Rin and Anju say with apologetic faces.

“No, that’s fine, but more importantly, what does it mean that Rina was kidnapped?”

“Actually, ……”

“Please wait.”

Rin was about to explain when one of the police officers interrupted her.

Behind him, there is also an explorer.

“Excuse me, who are you?”

“Oh, I’m sorry for the sudden appearance. My name is Amamiya Kaede, the explorer. I’m a friend of theirs, and I came here because I heard Rina was kidnapped.”

“Oh, I see. Thank you for taking the trouble to do this. My name is Hashimoto of the Metropolitan Police Department’s Explorer Division. I’m the one who is leading the investigation on this case.

“I am Iida. I am an explorer belonging to Astral, and I am investigating this case.”

“Okay. Nice to meet you.”

I bowed my head, and the detective, who introduced himself as Hashimoto, immediately began to speak.

“First of all, the name of the girl who is the victim this time is Rina Kanazaki. Her age is 18 years old. Kanazaki-san was at home when she was taken away by a wrecked car over there, and the blown whole wall.”

“…… You mean she was caught in the wall when they blew the wall?”

“Yes. They took Kanazaki-san away after she was knocked unconscious by the impact. Kanazaki-san was an explorer. There were no signs of resistance.”

I see. who did it?

“That’s …… sorry. I followed them immediately.”

Rin and Anju replied with regretful looks on their faces.

Rin and Anju heard a sound like a car breaking down a fence or wall, and they rushed outside and immediately chased after them.

“I see… guns in the city. ……”

“Yeah. I followed them for a while, calling 911 to see where they went, but they shot at me. ……”

And that’s how she got sprayed?

“Yes. Sorry. If only I had been faster!”

Rin looked down and gritted her teeth.

I was surprised that Rin, who has a unique skill [Godspeed] that gives a high correction to the agility status, was shaken off.

I didn’t expect them to do that in the city and the middle of the day like this.

“It’s finally getting to the point where they’re not afraid to act and don’t care about pretending.”

“What? What do you mean?”

As if to answer Anju’s question, I continue.

“There have been some strange movements for a while now, Rin, Anju. Did any people who kidnapped Rina wear the mark of the lost religion anywhere? And maybe a tattoo on their calf?”

When I called the police three days ago, I also told Rin and the other three about Labyrinthianism and Dragon’s Eye.

That’s why I asked this question.

“Well, I couldn’t confirm the tattoos, but.”

“I did confirm the markings of the lost religion.”

“You did?”

“Yeah. And the affiliation I found with my analysis skills was also a mixed team of Labyrinthianism and Dragon’s Eye.”

Anju says so and shares the information with us using her unique skills.

But.

“Was it good? Showing you have a unique skill?”

When I was about to continue that I’m hiding it, Anju stops me.

“It’s fine. It’s for Rina’s sake. There’s no reason not to use it. Besides, people probably found it someday.”

Anju says with a smile on her face.

I could feel the strong will on her face.

“Thanks. Anju.”

I thank Anju.

Then, I think about the information that Anju said.

“I knew it was Labyrinthianism and the Dragon’s Eye.

“Hashimoto-san, we are .”

“Yes. Let’s move to secure Labyrinthianism and the Dragon’s Eye. If everything is in order, we’ll need a warrant for them, but it’s unavoidable.

“I’ll go then.”

I said and jumped on the roof of Rin’s house.

Then, Rin and Anju get impatient.

“I have an idea where the Labyrinthianism people gather. I’m heading there. You two stay with the police!”

“Hey! Kaede-san! Where do you think you are?!”

Rin asks in a panic.

“Oh, that’s …….”

I’m not sure if I was a little too hasty.

I was about to go without telling her where I was going.

“It’s an abandoned church at the foot of the mountain in that direction! Iida-san, Hashimoto-san, if you can spare some people, please send some men this way too! Bye then!”

And that was all I said, and then, without hearing a reply, I hopped off the roof and headed straight to his destination.

The destination is an abandoned church. If Rina wasn’t there, it meant she was somewhere else, so it would be better for me if she were at the abandoned church, but what’s with this chest-thumping?

Please wait for me, Rina.
