Whatever its purpose, please tell the people at headquarters that it should be caught by its tail as soon as possible. "
Sensing devices can also ensure physical objects, but the provider knows nothing about them other than their presence.
Moreover, if there is no conclusive evidence to prove the existence of someone who can induce an intruder to do something that ordinary people cannot do, then he cannot do anything beyond his imagination.
(If the truth is not found out as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous)
In Xion's uneasy mood, time passed in the conference room.
The "mist" leaving Yadong is now heading towards Asia.
If you want to reach Asia as quickly as possible, it is best to go straight on the sea, but this time there is still a certain amount of time before arriving at the designated base, so you must fly on land as much as possible.
Of course, you may encounter misfortunes when sailing on land, but it is much better than sailing on the sea.
For this reason, the interior of the "Mist" is in a relatively stable state.
"Well, is this peace?"
He walked alone in the passage inside the ship and whispered.
The current state of "Mistolstan" was indeed peaceful, which was why Theon was able to leisurely return to the hangar after enjoying lunch in the mess hall, but if the view was expanded, it would not be the case.
Among the mysterious phenomena confirmed by Amazon, the existence of An's cloud sensing device discovered in Yadong and the fact that its existence was spread were discovered.
Although it has not developed into a decisive event, I still feel the premonition of a big change.
(...Why does it become like this)
What Theon was confused about wasn't that something unusual was going on.
The current situation of being involved in that mutation was more unexpected to Theon than anything else.
According to the original life plan, Xion should just pretend to be an ordinary person and live an interesting and funny every day on the seventh artificial island with his friends in the thirteenth technical class.
While flying around the world, they deal with terrorists and face unprecedented phenomena and events.
It is not that there are unavoidable situations that arise by chance, and I do not regret the choices I made at critical moments.
Still, sometimes it feels like it shouldn't be this way.
(Ah - never mind, I'm not suitable for this.)
When no one was around, she patted her cheeks with both hands to change her mood.
After thinking about it and pushing the useless things out of his mind, Xion proudly turned the corner to the hangar, but he bumped into something hard at the moment of turning.
If you hold your nose firmly and put two or three steps away from something you bump into, you will find that it is a person.
I continued to look up, and those familiar golden eyes looked down at me in surprise.
"Are you okay? Sorry, I'm a little worried."
"Is it Captain... I'm about the same, so don't worry about it."
Because the accident was caused by mutual negligence, it is not anyone's fault.
I rubbed my nose and smiled at him, Xiaojing answered me in the same way, but then the conversation was interrupted.
"...Have you finished your lunch?"
"Yes. This is not a sea trip, so it is very comfortable, very good~~"
"Because it's a bit busy in Yadong, it was right to choose the land route."
"As for Asia, the emergence of invaders is relatively stable, so there is some slack."
Xiaojing left the topic to me, and I chatted about irrelevant gossip.
We chatted casually for a while, and Xion went to the hangar, while Ajit went to the mess hall.
(Just like before)
Since the Yadong incident, this was the first time I talked to Ajid regardless of work.
In other words, this is the first private conversation after burying dozens of terrorists and exposing their true nature.
In this case, the sudden subtle silence between the two people is probably not accidental.
He expected from the beginning that if his true nature was exposed, it would become like this.
Before knowing that his nature is to harvest many lives easily, the people who can treat him as before are definitely in the minority.
Xion also understands this kind of thing, so he will not ask Argento to maintain the previous relationship.
Even so, it cannot be denied that there is still a little concern in my heart.
"A little lonely...nothing."
Just say it yourself and make a joke. Xion smiled bitterly at himself for doing such a meaningless thing, and quickened his pace towards the hangar.
Natsumi noticed this purely by chance.
The Mist is a safer route to Asia and the crew is more relaxed than usual.
Natsumi is no exception, and she can eat in the cafeteria more leisurely than usual.
It was precisely because the entire ship was like this that Natsumi saw the rare sight of Argento eating in the cafeteria and noticed something unusual about him.
"Huh? Ah, Natsumi."
"It's really rare. Isn't it your first time to have lunch in the cafeteria?"
"From what you said, maybe that's the case."
While saying this, he held the lunch sign in one hand and sat down on the seat opposite Xiaojing.
Although the positions of the captain and the helmsman are different, the human army has consciously abolished the detailed class system like the old army, and the threshold between classes is very low.
Especially since the two are brothers and sisters connected by blood. No one cares about two people like this eating together.
"Don't you have to be on the bridge? There are usually people delivering goods."
When Natsumi took over as co-helmsman and left the bridge, Aki should still be there.
Natsumi did not go directly to the restaurant, but walked a little in her room, so this time was preempted. However, originally Ajit would not leave the bridge during the voyage, and the food should also be invited to the restaurant. Sent by the crew.
This guy suddenly ran to the cafeteria. What brought him here?
"I was planning to be here, but those people told me to go."
"...Is it because your face is tired?"
Natsumi's words silenced Aki. His eyes were wide open and you could tell he was surprised.
"Oops, do you even know that?"
"Because I'm your brother's family, so there's no way I wouldn't notice things that strangers notice."
To Natsumi, Aki is an older brother and a parent.
It would be sad not to notice the changes in such a close being.
Having said that, if it were a normal Xiaojing, she would not show fatigue easily even when facing her family.
Like this, what Natsumi immediately realized, and what those people realized, all proved that Xiaojing was exhausted as never before.
"What happened? If it's just a 'fog' voyage, it shouldn't be that troublesome, right?"
The current "Miststan" is in a situation where the crew can move relatively loosely.
In this case, there should be no reason for Argento to be so tired, so it is natural to think that there are other problems.
"It's okay. I'm more rested than usual and I don't feel tired...just a little worried."
Xiaojing said with a wry smile, Natsumi observed her quietly.
Regarding Natsumi's question, Xiaojing answered in a "don't worry" tone, but she didn't mention a word about the specific question.
Natsumi also knew that she had been abducted. Judging from the current situation, she probably didn't discuss it with anyone.
If you don't want to say something, you shouldn't force it.
At least if it was Natsumi not long ago, she wouldn't think so, but Natsumi now is different.
With a certain "magician", there are situations where you have to step into it even if you don't know whether the other person wants it. Natsumi, who understands it firsthand, comes to the conclusion of... what should be done in this situation. .
Moreover, Natsumi also understands what Xiaojing is worried about.
Because of this, he will ask questions with a straight line shot and not be surrounded by encouragement from the other party.
"You mean Theon?"
Hearing this question, Argento, who brought the coffee cup to his mouth, stopped unnaturally. This is equivalent to telling the answer.
"...Am I not that well off now?"
Perhaps because his sister pointed out his troubles to the point, Ajit endured it and covered his face with one hand in shame.
Indeed, it is very undesirable for what Aki is thinking to be easily exposed.
However, Xiaojing didn't show it so obviously this time, but luck was on Natsumi's side.
"I didn't know it so clearly at first glance... I just knew it. I just thought of the things that bothered my brother."
