If both possibilities exist, rather than ignoring them, investigate until you are satisfied.
"Yes... future combat operations cannot be carried with risks..."
"Decided."
Mist and Anna agreed to Akid's proposal. No other members raised any objections.
"I mean, Easter, is there any way to bake it?"
"Are you going to throw the ball to me..."
"That's magic. If the true identity is hidden, there's nothing we can do."
After Akito and Anna said this, Xion scratched his head.
His response was somewhat vague.
"To be honest, it's quite difficult, right?"
"You too?"
"...I have told the captain before that there are many alarms and protective walls on the 'Mistetin' that are not intended for people."
Indeed, I heard this when I first entered the central area.
Theon's true identity was quite cleverly concealed during those unresponsive moments that Theon had prepared.
"In this way, even if we search the entire ship normally, we won't be discovered."
"I didn't sense any signs of that on this ship, either."
"You can't help it?"
"It would be great if I had a clue. If we investigate in detail like we did with the captain last time, we should be able to figure it out."
Of course, you can also investigate everyone like a physical examination, but if you take it too seriously, you may take countermeasures before it is the real spy's turn.
After all, we must have a certain clue here and conduct a surprise investigation.
"...For example, how about targeting people who have a favorable impression of Theon Istar? Is it possible that this kind of naivety is also possible for compatriots?"
"Although I can't say absolutely not, if you infiltrate as a spy, you should deliberately keep a distance from Xion? Being on Xion's side in the human army will be very conspicuous."
Neither Misty's opinion nor Anna's rebuttal was better.
In fact, Misumi seemed to think it was reasonable and did not object as strongly as usual.
In this way, it is difficult to use Theon's attitude as the final criterion.
"What do you think, Captain? It's not that troublesome to investigate. It doesn't matter if you don't mind a little."
"Having said that, if it's for the entire crew..."
"Okay, think more relaxedly."
Zhu Yue said easily to the troubled Akira.
"If there is really a spy on this ship, that guy's mission is to deliver information alive. He shouldn't want to die at all, right?"
"Well, that's true."
"Then the matter is simple. No matter how hard you hide your true identity, if you are going to another world, you can't remain silent."
A wicked smile appeared on Zhu Yue's face, she looked up at Jingren and asked.
"The Hydra thing, or the Broken thing is fine. Did anyone inform you of anything before that? Did anyone do anything that made you feel weird?"
When asked, I recall one incident.
Whether it was then or now, I felt that was not the behavior of that person.
"anyone there?"
"...Ah, there is only one person."
Ajit, who answered the convinced Theon's question, quietly turned his attention to that person.
"...???????"
The person who caught Akito's sight, Koyo Inagawa, was in a very embarrassed state.
Not to mention his gaze, even his face looked hesitant and busy, and his habitually bright brown hair also swayed slightly. This look made people feel pitiful, but Xiaojing began to feel an almost certain feeling in her heart. s things.
"...Just before what happened to the old woman, you came to my room to tell me about the possibility of enchantment."
Although he was a major member of bridge, he was timid and ran to Ajid's room to report, which was surprising at the time.
Moreover, his speculation is unquestionably true.
Judging from his usual appearance, the bold move of conveying unsubstantiated speculation directly to the top brass of the army was really strange.
But that was not speculation, but a solid fact that he knew. In addition, "Misterdin" would be shot down if he failed. In this case, I am afraid that he would not even be able to say such a thing.
"...By the way, Mr. Inagawa, didn't you say before that an attack would come before the alarm sounded?"
"Natsumi, when was that?"
"I remember, when Hydra first attacked, I hurriedly turned the helm as soon as I heard the sound."
Humans cannot predict attacks earlier than sensors can.
Xiaojing’s thoughts and Natsumi’s testimony. Both of these lend credence to doubts about utility.
Hongyang made meaningless sounds such as "ah" and "ah", still in a state of embarrassment, and Xion slowly stepped forward and grabbed his shoulders.
Xion smiled slightly and looked at Hongyang, who was wailing slightly.
"Stop quibbling, I'll just go look for it."
The bodies of Xion and Hongyang caught by him emitted a faint light.
"Come, let me see your true face!"
The light that came in became stronger and stronger, taking away Aki and the others' sight. They only heard a "bang", as if something exploded.
"ah!"
Then the dull voice of Xion was heard, and the light quickly weakened and disappeared.
Next, what Ajit saw was Xion standing holding Hongye's shoulder, and a trace of mysterious smoke remaining around him.
There were no red leaves to be seen there.
"Did you let him escape?"
"No, that's not the case..."
In contrast to Mist who was panicking, Theon calmly picked up something.
"...What? Dog? Cat?"
Theon picked up a fur ball. It was impossible to tell what kind of animal it was at first glance, and Anna raised questions. Theon shook his head silently.
"Is this a fox?"
"Fox...could it be...?"
Maple Leaf's figure disappeared, leaving only a fox.
Momiji is suspected of conveying information to Tamamo Mae.
Tamamo-mae is a nine-tailed demon fox.
"That's it. It turns out that the cowardly-looking monk is pretending..."
Except for Zhu Yue, who accepted it as a matter of course, Xiao Jing and the others' shocked screams resounded throughout the briefing room.
"Cough." Mismi cleared her throat and sorted out the situation.
"In other words, the young man we know named Gaoyang Inagawa was not a human from the beginning, but a fox in human form. Is that true?"
"It seems so."
"Ah, I was shocked." Although Xion said this, in Ajid's opinion, he didn't seem very surprised.
The fox he was holding was stroking the red fur, enjoying the look of the fur, and felt happy no matter what he thought about it.
"Anyway, he should be the one who conveyed the information to Tamamo-zenden, right?"
"Yes. From the looks of it, it should be her family, right?"
Theon's words made the furball in his arms visibly tremble.
Her reaction was like acknowledging Tamamo-mae's family, which was strange.
"...It doesn't look like a spy's reaction."
As Anna said, Aki nodded silently.
Koyo is an outsider hiding inside the "Mist", and he must have revealed the information to Tamamo Mae.
But after looking at Guangyang's reaction, although it wasn't very serious, I didn't think he was a "spy" either.
"To put it bluntly... Istar is more like a spy."
"It's so suspicious, I'm sorry."
He is personable and does not break his rhythm or reveal his true intentions and information.
I think Theon is very suitable for espionage activities, and I can even say that spies should be like this.
It was precisely because of this impression that Xiaojing and the others were so frightened that they trembled. In addition, because of Gao Yang's attitude, he could easily provide information. Being called an unknown spy was unsuitable and there was nothing he could do about it. Let's do it.
"It's really not suitable for hiding... As a fox demon, I always feel that he is too honest."
"Wow! My stomach is not feeling well..."
In Xion's arms, Hong Yang, whose belly was carelessly caressed, showed his will to resist, but finally complied.
To others, this is just a gratifying scene of a young man who loves small animals, but it is hard to describe when he thinks that the small animals looked like twenty-year-olds just a short time ago.
"Since a lot has been exposed, I think it's better to take this opportunity to make mistakes and make a lot of things dirty, okay?"
