"Winner of the Drinking Championship!
Winner is the Owner of the Tavern"

Anne won the heavy drinkers'
championship held the other day.
Her incredible record was 6 bottles
of wine, 8 bottles of whiskey, and
7 gallons of Japanese sake."

"When the title favorites, among them
Wan Fu, Joker and Leo, started to
fall down, she continued drinking,
keeping a firm expression. This
inspired such comments from the
audience as 'manly' and 'impossible'."

"The prize was a years' supply of
Kanakan local wine. After Anne
declared that she would drink it with
the participants to commemorate the
event, they ran away."

"For now, the customers at the bar
will be quiet."


Issue 20
"Secret Leaks from a Friend
Franz Flirting with Ruby Before Iku"

"Franz and Iku are one of the few
acknowledged couples at the Castle.
A surprising fact was revealed about
the two by Mr. R(pseudonym),
who emigrated from Le Buque."

"By chance, R witnessed them
quarrelling at Ruby's station six
months ago. According to him,
Franz, who believed Iku was being
sullen, was making insinuating
remarks to her. He told her that
'Ruby is different', and that
'Ruby doesn't mind small matters'.
R says Franz was behaving childishly."

"Interviewed by this newspaper,
Franz said it was a ridiculous
accusation. He said he would
not accept further interviews."


Issue 21
"Mike and His Mysterious Face:
His Smile and the Underworld"

"Mike has many female fans because of
his charming appearance and lighthearted
smile, but it seems he is secretly
meeting men dressed in black every
night."

"A witness, whom we call M, said that
he had seen these men saluting Mike.
A boy detective, who claims familiarity
with such things, said, 'It is possible
that he is connected with an underworld
organization'. However, there is no
evidence to support this claim."

"Will there be a day when the true
face behind his smile will be
revealed?"


Issue 22
"How Tuta and Mio Met Each Other
Sad Past Revealed"

"Tuta and Mio have been looking after
the health of castle inhabitants at
the clinic. They seem a perfect couple,
but what was revealed by this
newspaper is too cruel to discuss."

"Three years ago, when the war was
raging, the Harmonia Frontier Force
invaded Highland. That was when Tuta,
who was a doctor, and Mio, who was
taking care of patients, met each other
at a field hospital. At the same
hospital, in spite of Tuta's desperate
efforts, Mio's husband died after his
operation."

"It is sad to hear that
Mio became a widow so young,
and that Tuta couldn't save her
husband. The distance between
the two seems so far."


Issue 23
"Contents of the Dogs' Baskets Revealed
Thanks to a Boy's Investigation"

"Money, mementos of the owners,
shopping lists, jerked meat. The
mysterious contents of the basket dogs'
baskets were revealed by the desperate
investigation of a boy detective."

"There were stones in Koroku's,
Koichi's, Kosanji's and Kogoro's
baskets."

"It is a mystery why there were
strawberries in Connie's basket.
The boy detective said, 'I was
surprised by the stones, but more
surprised when I found the fresh
strawberries. I thought it was an
illusion. Did someone change the
contents?' Was it a trick? Kidd's
investigation has led only to further
mysteries, as usual."


Issue 24
"Nash Having an Affair?
Not Revealing the Truth"

"Nash, known as a devoted husband,
is suspected of having an affair."

"Nash was seen walking with an
unknown girl by the lake at night.
A witness said, 'Ho ho ho, it must
have been an affair. Who was it?
I couldn't see clearly because it
was far away, but she seemed to
be a beautiful girl with a creamy
complexion. I wanted to take his
place'."

"Nash claimed she was 'just
an old friend' when he was
interviewed. This seemed a little
evasive. His wife's troubles
continue."
