Queen Rushi
Chapter 45 Panic
Dining House
‘’Wire!’’ pekik Usagi made everyone turn their heads with a confused face.
Yagyu who saw it tried to make the customers to calm down again, and did not think too much about the scream earlier. ‘’Please enjoy the food. I'm sorry for a minute.’’
Without a second thought, Prince Rodigero and Shika also followed Yagyu's departure. The three men arrived at the money storage room.
‘’What's Usagi? Why are you yelling like that?’’ ask Yagyu.
Usagi with a horrified face and trembling hands turned her head. ‘’Ti-Three thousand coins our gold money ... Everything is gone.’’
The deg!
‘’Ap—‘’ Yagyu and Shika's greeting was cut off as Prince Rodigero filled their mouths before shouting.
‘’Quite scream Usagi alone make the customers surprised. Don't make them heart attacks because of the yelling of the two of you,’’ Prince Rodigero said.
Yagyu and Shika nodded in understanding, and asked Prince Rodigero to withdraw his hand.
‘’But how can everything just disappear?’’ ask Prince Rodigero.
‘’I don't know. His fingers are also locked, so it is impossible for someone to open them,’’ replied Usagi.
‘’Is it possible, there are thieves sneaking while we all serve the customers?’’ guess Shika.
‘’If that happens, we should have caught it. To get to this room, you have to pass through the living room and kitchen first. And we are all between those two rooms, so there is no thief,’’ Yagyu said.
‘’Then how can all his money be lost in this locked closet?’’ panic Usagi.
Shika immediately took a pose like a detective. ‘’Theft case, yes? Leave it to me. Where were you three before the money disappeared?’’
‘’What do you mean? Obviously we've all been together since ta—‘’
‘’Second suspects not granted permission to talk! I'm talking to the first suspect, Mr. Usagi,’’ Shika said.
‘’After collecting customer payment, I came to save it here,’’ replied Usagi.
‘’So, yes? While the suspect is third, what did you do back then?’’ ask Shika.
‘’He is Prince Rodigero. Speak politely to kepa—‘’
‘’Currently he is not a Prince but a suspect. Besides the second suspect, I haven't given you permission to speak. So shut up!‘’ shika's orders.
‘’Eish! This boy,’’ said Yagyu who was about to hit, but was stopped by Prince Rodigero.
Prince Rodigero nodded with the intention of keeping Yagyu calm. He looked back at Shika. ‘’Before I was outside because there was business, so just came here.’’
Shika squinted her eyes. ‘’Hm~ your words are dubious. Then Mr Usagi, does anyone else have the key to this closet?’’
Usagi fell silent with her stupid face. ‘’Only Me and Your Majesty.’’
‘’Oh so? That means His Majesty ah! There's no way Your Majesty did it, ahem! Haa, this is useless,’’ Shika said a long sigh.
Yagyu put on his stupid face. ‘’I'm also one of the suspects, then why are only two people being interrogated? Basis.’’
Usagi seemed to want to cry while pacing. ‘’How is this? What shall we say to His Majesty? We've taken pains to make that kind of money.’’
What about the 1000 gold coins that Prince Rodigero gave away for free? Haa, Yagyu said inwardly.

Fighting House
Mozaru was still staring at Queen Rushi with a puzzled look on his face. ‘’I still don't understand. His Majesty did nothing but throw two plastic bags. What is special about that item?’’
Queen Rushi smiled lightly. ‘’It is very special because it contains Tanghulu and fruit salad. Grizzly bears love to eat bark. The sugar was caramelized to produce a sticky liquid, so I coated the bark with the caramel. This is traditional Chinese food. While the fruit salad, I use the favorite fruits of gorillas such as wine, orange, pear, guava, and pineapple filled with cold syrup.’’
‘’Although not understood and never heard, it seems to sound very good,’’ Mozaru said.
