I have no doubt the crime will be solved, but I still can't help but feel sorry for the merchants: The adventurer who accepted the merchants' quest is just using the quest as a convenient tool for romantic purposes. But I guess it won't really matter if the case is solved.
I'm liking this little mini-arc, I still want more main couple progress though. It's cool we get the other characters getting progress but yeah this lack of main progress really stands out as a result.

I will never understand the trop of underestimating a character based on lack of muscles for an investigation, you don't need muscles, thick armor and a giant sword to look around and investigate, those are for the leg work after the investigation.
