Inside your father's office, an unusually serious-looking father .

"I've heard that the crime rate in Molech city is up.
It's the closest city to the compound.

　Nodding, Father.

"Many people came here in love with Alec. But not all of them seem to be good people. Some are willing to do bad things from the start.
That's true.
That was a lot. The city is flourishing because of Alec, so you must be good (...)

　I see.
　That's a bit disturbing.
　I can't see the crime rate going up.

Okay, Dad, I'll see what I can do.
"Mm, please, Alec.

　I just said "I'll take care of it" to your father and left the office.

　Let's go out to the city of Molek to get a grip on the entity first.
　So I walked through the hallway and out of the house.

　When I got out of the mansion.

"Oh, could that be?
"I wonder if it's real, hey what's up?
Wow, I've only seen it from a distance.

　I heard a girl's voice, a type of girl I'm not used to hearing.
　Curiously, I turned toward the voice and saw a group of girls having what appeared to be a tea party at a table in the garden.

　Among them was Angel, and the girls were all about the same age as Angel.
　Since Angier was there, I went to the girls.

Hey Angier, having a tea party with your friends?
"Yes!　Dear Alec.

　A yellow scream went up from the girls as Angel replied.
　They reacted as soon as they heard "Miss Alec", or my name, in Angier's reply.
　She reacts like a girl of her age who has actually met her idol.

　Including that reaction, I was curious to know what kind of a group of girls it was.

"What kind of friends are you?
"Huh?　Let's see, ...... um, ......
Hmm?
"Its ......

　Unusually stammering Angel.
　I've been living with her for almost ten years, but it's very unusual for her to stammer like this to say something to me.

　I mean, this is the first time, isn't it?

　If you're uncomfortable answering your questions, you don't have to force yourself.
　I know she wouldn't do anything strange.

　With that in mind, I was about to cut the conversation short.

"Excuse me!　Don't blame Master Angelica!

　A girl sitting across from Angel began to frantically defend herself.

"Angelica-sama is only doing us a favor!
What does that mean?
"We all admire Master Alexander!

　Oh, whoa?

　I was a little pressured by the momentum of the girl explaining herself and the same strong look the other girls were giving me.

The girl who admires Alexander but has never met him, or who only sees him from a distance when he saves her. Angelica has invited us here.
"Isn't that right, Angers?
"Well ...... yes. Actually, it's .......

　Angier's cheeks turned cherry-red, and he looked up at me with a slight slump.

I wanted to hear nice things about Alec from everyone. I've heard rumors and seen him in person. I wanted to hear all the wonderful things about Master Alec.
"...... I see.

　I wonder what's so loud.
　That's not a bad thing.

So I invited a bunch of people to the house for a little chat.
So it's not your first day.
"Yes!

　I see.
　Well, I'm out there a lot, so it's no wonder you don't know.

"Uh, Mr. Alec.
Hmm?
I've heard from a lot of people and I've noticed one thing.
What is it?
"Everyone who likes Alec is a good person.
"Nice people?
"Yes!　That ...... Mr. Alec your ears.

　Angel said this and whispered to me so that the other girls wouldn't hear.

There are many ways to say it, but everyone says you can't face Alec if you do something bad. Alec is a light, and if you do something bad, you won't be able to stand to love him.
"I see.



　I responded in a whisper that I could hear.

　Young - or rather young - children are often like that.
　More often than not, parents discipline them.

　They will hate you if you do something wrong.
　That's what a good percentage of parents are told at an early age.

　That is true even if the person is not me and not light or anything else.

......
"Mr. Alec?　What's wrong with you?
"Light ...... hey Angier
"Yes.
"Angier, which do you think thieves are more common, day or night?
"I think it's ...... at night . . because people don't see you more at night.
That's right.

　Angel gave me a hint, which I further asked the wise man's sword.

　Like a dictionary of tens of millions of pages, the wise man's sword holds all the knowledge that exists in the world.
　The wise men's sword told me.

　It is clear that 60-70% of all crimes are committed at night, and in some cases more than 90% of all crimes are committed at night.

　The difference between day and night is brightness - or light.
　Then, to curb crime, we need more light.

　Light, huh.

　　　　　.

　A few days later, the city of Molech.
　A few days later, in the city of Molek, a few things that had been installed here and there on the street were finally installed in the evening.

Oh, man, you're a real operator.

　Standing beside me in the sunset is Howe Robinson, who has become a patron of my research.
　The patron of my research, Howe Robinson.

　He's here because I commissioned an invention.
　That invention is now installed all over the city of Molech.

It's amazing how quickly you can make it work.
I've had the idea for a while now, and I've been throwing around the idea that it wasn't feasible because there was no such thing as a moonflower.
That's why you were able to make it so quickly.
That's what it is.

　Nodding Howe.
　Even as he spoke, the sun was slowly setting in the west.
　And with it, the people of the city began to fidget.

　And then the sun completely set.
　The bright daytime is over, and darkness reigns in the night.

　Soon after, the lights came on.

　Not one or two, but lights came from all over the city.

　The ones I had them installed were streetlights.
　Like pillars, just a little higher than the ceiling of a one-story house, I mounted the magical lights of Howe's invention on them. The magical power that powers it is provided by the moonflower on it.

　At night, the moonflower automatically creates magic drops and lights up with them.

"Whoa!
"Bright, bright!
"It's like daylight!

　Cheers erupted from all over the city.
　The streetlights here and there have created enough light to rival daytime, just as everyone thought.

　It's as if the entire city of Molech has returned to daylight.

　After this day, the high crime rate in Molech has dropped noticeably.
