Magicraft Meister Part 4

3004 - - 79-31 Operation Decision

The meeting to denounce the <> was now in its final stages.

"Now then, as for the <>, that can be solved almost completely by finding a field.

< to testify that it is a drug ingredient, we can seize the fields.

And since there is no other land where they grow it, if we ask them where they got the seeds, they will know that they stole them from the <>.

"Oh, if it's a field, I found it.

"What?"

What?"

Jin D said in a light tone.

It was the old man who found it. < and .

He asked me to prepare a map of the southern part of the Kingdom of Selroa and pointed it out with his finger.

The location is northwest of Kupu, isn't it? It is about a third of the way on the line connecting the town of Dos Sur and Kupu. It is about 15 kilometers away.

"......I see, it's an underpopulated area."

Makina III looked at the map and muttered.

"Yes. The strong winds from the sea make this area unsuitable for farming, so there are many abandoned wastelands, and it is therefore difficult to be seen by the public.

"I see, you may be right, Mr. Jin.

Tomax Bartmann nodded his head in admiration.

Jin D. gave him some more information.

"It seems that they are surrounded by a windbreak to protect them from the wind, and they are growing inside the windbreak.

"Then you can't see them from the surroundings. ......"

"That's what I'm talking about, Makina."

Upon hearing this information, Tomax Bartmann came to one conclusion.

"...... umm...... let's seize the < fields first."

"Supreme Superintendent, we should talk to the Kingdom of Selroa as well, right?"

Of course. Latkin, please contact them.

Yes, sir.

With this, the first operation has been decided.

The first one is decided.

One more thing we can't leave out.

<

"So, what should we do about the magic tool of suggestion?

Is it too difficult to go into it at once?

Chel asked Tomax Bartmann.

"Yes, it is. <."

"How can that be issued?"

"The Minister of Justice of the Kingdom of Celuloa or the Legal Department here in will issue it. But we will need more physical evidence.

Tomax Bartmann explains that the foundation of the rule of law would be shaken if he were to invoke his authority.

"...... But, if we take our time, they will hide the magic tool of suggestion, won't they?"

"Mister Chell is right. We should do something about it.

Makina III said that we had better hurry.

"Then we should investigate , right?"

Jin D. said.

"I see, <>. ......"

Jin D. is a complete amateur when it comes to the law, so his knowledge is limited to what he has learned from TV dramas about detectives.

Even so, he understood that in this case, it means <>.

"So, what is this <>?"

"That's it. I have a few ideas.

"Why don't we just go in there, me and Ray, in disguise?"

How about we seize the who used the ," said Makina III.

"That would not be a bad idea.

We can reason that some people are sensitive to <," said Ilmina Ratkin.

"Then there's the ......<> or > if you follow them into the <>."

"Oh, I don't know about that."

It could be considered too aggressive, Tomax Bartman said.

"Wouldn't it be better to call it protection instead of seizure?"

Jin D. suggested.

"I see. ....... We could give her a good reason and worry about her health, and in the process, find and seize the magic tools of suggestion. It might be a good idea."

"The question is, how can we point out that is a drug addict?"

Tomax Bartmann agrees with the compendium. But Yilmina Ratkin has pointed out the details.

You can tell that a person is an addict by looking at his or her brain waves, but the question is whether he or she is willing to let ...... take the measurements.

< .......

In the first place, there is also the question of whether such an action can be taken in the enemy's <>.

"We will have to inspect them without question."

Jin D. said.

"It would be good if we could measure even at a distance of about 10 meters, wouldn't it?"

"That's right, but ......"

"I'll make it perform like that," said Jin D., "I'll make it perform like that somehow.

Jin D. was very enthusiastic.

< like any other person, it would be easy to measure the brain waves.

If the brain waves are measured and the person is identified as an addict, he will be a protected person and the culprit will be subject to arrest.

It was concluded that there would be no problem in this process without a search warrant.

For better or worse, such restrictions are looser than those in modern Japan.

* * * * * * * *

Now that the method has been roughly decided, it is necessary to decide on the overall strategy.

"Shall we go with a two-sided strategy here?"

Makina suggested.

"Yes, I think so. < farm and the other to search for the cathedral.

Tomax Bartmann agreed.

Then I will go to the farm.

Jin D. runs for the position of the discoverer.

"I can talk to the king of the Kingdom of Selroa and ask him to come with us.

< can make the 400 km round trip between Kupu and the capital, Esia, in two hours.

"Yes, then I'll leave that to you, Master Jin.

"Yes, sir.

Thus, Jin D. takes charge of the <> farm.

He will be accompanied by Illumina Ratkin from the <> side. The reason is that the risk is relatively low.

And .......

"Can you take Hahn with you?"

Chelle says, "It would be better for the cause to have someone from the <> of the property.

So Jin D., Reiko, Ilmina Ratkin, and Hahn are in charge of the < farm.

And to the .

Deus ex Machina III, Squire Rey. < are the captain of the land forces, Reveraldo Dartez, and Mei Shai Joey, deputy director of the Medical Research Institute.

And of course, Chelle.

The day was just for preparation, and it was decided that the operation would take place on the following day, the 22nd, at 7:00 a.m. local time.
