The two who glanced at each other simultaneously sighed in helplessness.
「Maa, it’s not surprising that you guys would want to go with Oda.」
「I don’t like Oda-kun, but that’s just my personal opinion. I won’t be stubborn, and will follow everyone else.」
As expected, was it something that existed no matter the world, or was it something that was popularized by someone who had been summoned….
In any case, it seems that, in all worlds, it’s common to hold contests that decided who was number one.
「It seems that there is, more or less, a men’s category as well, but as expected, the women’s category is much more popular. A, and….」
Tsuda’s words stopped in the middle.
His face was turning pale.
「And?」
Nanase urged him.
「The contest winner goes missing every time, a, and there are rumors like how their internal organs were being sold….」
In other words, it’s an organ trade, huh?
Because these disturbing words were not something we were familiar with in Japan, it once again made us realize that we were in another world.
「Why was it only the winner?」
Hosoyama was next to Tsuda, rubbing his back as she asked this.
If it were the internal organs, it would make no difference if it were from a beautiful woman or a plain-looking woman.
「Um, the ojisans, said that the organs from young, beautiful women could be sold for a high price in the black market.」
There was nothing like the police in this world.
There were people who were like the Shinsengumi patrolling and keeping public order in Yamato, but even so, it wasn’t like the national government had organized it, it seems like they were volunteers.
The national government would make a move when the country was being threatened, but it wouldn’t for things like thefts, murders, and kidnappings.
It was a world filled with monsters, and war, so although it was something that couldn’t be helped, I still wonder if they couldn’t do it somehow.
There were assassination commissions and requests for exacting revenge put up in the Adventurer Guild as well, but most people wouldn’t accept them.
Even in this world, killing people was avoided, and people wouldn’t intentionally dye their own hands with blood for someone else.
That was, only if they weren’t worried about money.
「Satou, what are we going to do?」
Satou pondered intently over my words.
It seems that something had been on his mind since a while ago.
Satou said this while cautiously choosing his words.
「It is being hosted in Uruk, right? …if I’m not mistaken, the scoundrel that Akira and Kurou-san were talking about—-wasn’t he named Gram? Did this have something to do with him?」
Now that he mentioned it, I remember now.
The one Kurou-san wanted to exact his revenge on was Uruk’s guildmaster or something like that.
「It’s possible.」
Hasoyama gave a wry smile.
It seems that he’d committed every crime except for murder, and it wouldn’t be a surprise even if he was part of the organ trade.
「Even if it had nothing to do with him, it’s not something that can be forgiven.」
Waki muttered this.

Satou nodded at that.
「I still don’t know about what’s going on with the monsters and demons, but I can’t turn a blind eye to people buying and selling people. If Gram was involved, Kurou-san may make a move, and so will Akira. …the festival seems like fun, but if we arrested the criminal, wouldn’t it be a good opportunity to display our usefulness to Akira and Princess Amelia.」
Our course of action was decided with Satou’s words.
