"They should all know it now..." After Manager Matsunaga also learned about the inspection report, the results were also sent to the night raid team.
Such a result was something none of them wanted to see. Unsurprisingly, there was a dead silence in the command room.
The air was eerily quiet. Even though Captain Wakura and Vice-Captain Saijo had already been mentally prepared, it was still difficult to accept the results of such an examination with their own eyes, let alone the remaining people.
Qingshan's eyes widened, Hayate's sacrifice was still vivid in his mind, but the same thing happened to senior Gumen again. They were obviously heroes who fought desperately to protect the earth, why didn't they get a good ending... It's really Fortune plays tricks on people...
"Everyone..." After a long silence, Gumen slowly broke the deathly silence: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine now!"
Seeing everyone slowly raising their heads, he continued: "Besides, the Predictors are also working hard to develop special medicines, aren't they? So you really don't have to worry about me..." Although he said this, his slightly trembling voice was even more disturbing. People are worried.
"...You..." Vice Captain Saijo shook his head helplessly. They all knew that the one who was suffering the most right now must be Gumen himself. He was just trying to support himself by saying these words. If you get AIDS, it is possible for ordinary people to wait until The emergence of special medicines, but for people with such great responsibilities as Gumen... it is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky...
Not to mention that he is still a capable person. Whether it is a strange beast or a body summoned by the destruction of the root, it is a fatal threat to him...
Everyone knows this very well, but has not said it out loud. Saying it out will only increase their worries. Now all they can do is continue to work hard as usual to prevent Gumen from taking the same path as Gale...
"Okay, let's continue working. There is still a lot of work to be done." Captain Hecang clapped his hands, letting everyone come out of the sad atmosphere, looked at Gumen, and joked stiffly: "Gumen members, don't Just be lazy and do less work because of this!”
"Hmm..." Understanding what Captain Wakura meant, Gumen nodded in response.
"This sentence is really terrible..." Shiori complained in a low voice, everyone smiled awkwardly, and then continued busy as usual.
Seeing that the team was still so united, Manager Matsunaga standing at the door breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave with confidence.
The dim light fell on his gray hair, dyeing it almost all white.
"Administrator Matsunaga!" As soon as he reached the end of the corridor, Saya Suto hurried over.
"What's wrong? Are you in such a hurry?" Seeing his subordinates in such a hurry, something must have happened. Manager Matsunaga's relaxed brows frowned slightly again.
"Dr. Tango is missing!"
"What?!"
"Ms. Miyamoto, aren't you going to work at the ramen shop today?" Umi asked on the way back.
"Well, my boss gave me a day off, so I just went out for a walk." Naguo explained.
"That's it..."
Naguo turned his head slightly and looked at the man beside him who had saved his life many times. She didn't know him very well. All she knew so far was his name and that he was chosen by the Light of the Earth. She didn't know the rest.
At that banquet, this guy was as cold as a killer, but he didn't do anything to stain his hands with blood. Regardless of the dissuasion from a stranger he didn't know at the time, Naguo believed that he was not a bad person. .
What kind of past does he carry... Also, the person he was staring at with those terrifying eyes at the banquet seemed to be... his own father...
I can’t remember exactly who it was. After all, I was attacked by Apatai at that time, so I can’t remember the details...
"Now," after thinking for a while, Naguo slowly asked, "It seems that Mr. Fujiwara has never mentioned your father-in-law and your father-in-law?"
It was strange to think that even when he was injured and hospitalized, he did not call home. Naguo's sixth sense told her that there must be something wrong with this.
"..." Hai Mo didn't answer her, he just blinked slightly, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.
"Isn't it convenient to say it? I'm really sorry..." Seeing that he didn't answer, Naguo had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.
"I'm an adult already. I'm not like some eldest ladies who have to rely on their parents for food all their lives..." Hai Mo said coldly, then walked forward faster and distanced himself from Naguo.
"Hey, hey, hey! What do you mean!" Naguo became angry when he heard this. He made it clear that he was talking about himself!
"I'm living on my own now, it's not what you think!!" She was about to catch up and say something, but someone suddenly covered her mouth from behind: "Uh-huh——"
"Huh?" Hai Mo noticed something was wrong and turned around quickly, only to be met with a fist as big as a sandbag.
With a "bang", his vision went dark and he lost consciousness...
"..." A white figure in the distance quietly watched the two of them being tied up and taken away. She did not stop her. Her soft hair swayed gently with the gentle breeze, and her big watery eyes blinked. Blinking, she raised her hand slightly, and then turned into a green light and flew away with the wind, quietly following them.
"Are you still worried about Gumen?" Seeing Qingshan's worried look, Captain Wakura asked.
"Hmm..." Aoyama thought that he would not be noticed because he was burying his head in work. Seeing that he could not hide his little thoughts, Aoyama raised his head and looked at Captain Wakura, scratching his head in embarrassment: "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from the Captain. ah……"
"What are you worried about?" Captain Wakura stood up and walked to the coffee machine and asked while Gumen and the others happened to be away from the command room.
"I'm worried that Senior Gumen... will be like Hayate..." Thinking of Hayate's tragic experience, Aoyama couldn't help but sigh.
"Really..." Understanding Aoyama's thoughts, Captain Wakura nodded slightly and poured hot water into the cup.
"But so what?"
"Huh?" Qingshan was a little confused and didn't understand what Captain Wakura meant.
Captain Wakura smiled and handed the brewed coffee to Aoyama. Aoyama thanked him and put it on the table with both hands.
"Some things are actually not something we can decide." Captain Wakura said: "Even a genius like a prophet cannot be said to be able to predict the future completely accurately; even visitors with strong technological levels cannot avoid it. Losing your hometown.”
"Whether it's a gale or a lonely sect, I think they were all ready for enlightenment the moment they received the light, and so are we, right?"
"We...the same..." Yes, didn't you already have such an awareness the moment you decided to become a soldier? What else am I doubting...
Seeing that Qingshan's eyes were bright again, Captain Wakura nodded happily and continued: "No matter what, Gumen is our companion. What we can do now is to do the same as usual and we don't need to give him special care. , you don’t need to worry about him all the time, I think this is what Gu Men wants.”
"team leader……"
"Okay, don't think too much, keep working!" Captain Hecang patted Aoyama on the shoulder and returned to his post.
"Um!!"
"Everyone..." Gumen stood outside the door. He heard the conversation between the two. Looking at Qingshan who was energetic and busy working again, a warm current surged in his heart, and a smile spread on his face.
At the end of the corridor, Saijo and Shiori, who had just returned, saw the solitary door, looked at each other, and couldn't help but smile sadly...
"Wha—" A basin of cold water was poured on Naguo, forcing her to wake up.
"Um..." Naguo slowly opened his eyes. The dim light did not stimulate the eyeballs too much. His vision changed from blurry to clear, and the scene in front of him gradually became clearer.
He didn't know where this was in an abandoned factory. It was dark everywhere, and there were two fans stained with oily smoke on the wall. The first thing that caught his eye were a few men in black wearing sunglasses, and then he saw the man leaning on the chair. With the familiar yet unfamiliar figure on her face, and the fact that she was firmly tied to the chair, even her feet were the same, she already knew it.
"Master, she's awake." After receiving the report from his subordinates, Miyamoto Shiro slowly raised his hand. Those subordinates understood what he meant, gently grabbed the edge of the chair and carefully turned the direction so that he could meet him. Naphthalene fruit face to face.
"Long time no see, daughter."
They should be very warm words, but they came out of this man's mouth without any emotion. Naguo looked at the greedy guy in front of him with disgust and did not answer his words.
"What? You've suffered so much outside that you can't even recognize your father?" Miyamoto Shiro sneered, took a puff of the cigarette, and blew out a circle of white mist.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... look at this embarrassing appearance," Miyamoto Shiro looked at the naphthalene fruit in front of him like a drowned rat, and said sarcastically: "This is not like my precious daughter who is the most beautiful girl in the country..."
"How about it? Have you thought carefully about it? It's better to listen to your father and go back and marry Mr. Sugiura."
"Bah!!!" Naguo rebuffed: "Stop dreaming!!"
"Oh? Did you not suffer enough, or did your wings grow hard?" Miyamoto Shiro winked. He did not come to Naguo for discussion.
After he waved his hand, the men next to him picked up the long whip that had been soaked overnight from the wooden barrel on the side and swung it at Naguo mercilessly.
"Ah!!" A burst of severe pain came, and Naguo screamed, but the man didn't show any mercy at all. He swung the whip hard again, causing a splash of water. After a few blows, Naguo lost consciousness again. .
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... I can't help but beat him..." Miyamoto Shiro shook his head, stopped his men, and then stretched out his hand to signal to his subordinates: "Bring him here too."
"yes!"
"Let's go, let's go!" Hai Mo was also tied up and pressed up. His mouth was also covered with tape. The people next to him forced him to kneel down. He wanted to resist, but his body was bound and he couldn't move. Neng glared angrily, staring at the scum in front of him.
"Originally I was just looking for my daughter, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected result. Fujiwara Kaisue... I didn't expect you to be alive..." Miyamoto Shiro motioned to his men to tear off the tape on his mouth, but Kaisue didn't care about the burning pain in his mouth. , stared at him, opened his mouth and replied: "This is all thanks to you! You bastard!!"
Seeing his eyes that wanted to tear him into pieces, Miyamoto Shiro sneered: "At first, I thought they had the wrong person... Now it seems that you and your father are indeed very similar, especially this look. The look in my eyes is exactly the same, the same powerlessness, hahahaha!"
"Uh..." Naguo gradually regained consciousness and slowly opened her eyes. The place where she was hit was burning. She took a breath of cold air, but after hearing the conversation between the two, she pretended to close her eyes again. .
"What? You were lucky enough to save your life ten years ago, and now you can't wait to give it back to me?"
"Miyamoto Shiro, you bastard, I have to kill you!" Hearing him mention what happened ten years ago, Umi was furious, but he was helpless. He was held down tightly and could not move.
"Ten years ago?" Naguo was very confused. He was still young at that time and had no memory at all.
"Ten years ago, if your father hadn't listened to my advice and wanted to accuse me, if he was willing to listen to me and join me, why bother forcing me to take action? Alas!" Thinking of the past, Shiro Miyamoto sighed hypocritically, This made Hai Mo even more angry:
"Bah!! You are a scum of society!! What you did is outrageous to both humans and gods, and is unacceptable. Sooner or later you will be punished!!"
"Oh?" Miyamoto Shiro laughed and said: "Hahaha... what do you know? The weak will eat the strong. Only the strong can survive. If you are not ruthless, you will have endless troubles. Besides,"
He smiled jokingly: "You didn't see anything wrong with me? It's your father and the others, tsk tsk tsk..."
"You fart... Uh-huh..." Hai Mo was about to continue scolding him, but the person next to him sealed his mouth with tape again, and he couldn't say anything.
"You don't have to hate me so much. Don't worry, I will send you and your father to reunite soon. After all, a family must go together!"
As he spoke, the people on the side picked up their knives and pointed them at Umi. As long as Miyamoto Shiro gave the order, they could immediately let Fujiwara Umi return to the west.
"Isn't it hard to feel like you can't avenge them? How do you feel about this powerlessness?" Shiro Miyamoto sneered, "What a pity. I'm afraid you have to wait for the rest of your life, hahaha!!"
Kaimo didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all, and it was beyond his plan. He originally planned to wait for Miyamoto Shiro to come to find his daughter before taking revenge, but he didn't expect that this guy would act like this. Quick, he struck when the two of them were together, catching himself off guard...
He is so anxious, presumably for some bullshit benefit... After all, this guy can do anything when his eyes turn red...
Hai Mo clenched his fists and couldn't break free even with all his strength. Could it be that he could only wait to die here...
"Sir, your call is from Dr. Tango." Just as he was about to take action, a subordinate came over with a mobile phone and handed it to Shiro Miyamoto respectfully.
"Oh?" Anyway, Fujiwara Kaimo is already in his pocket, and he can take his life at any time. It doesn't matter if he delays for a few minutes. He reaches out and takes the phone: "Hello, Dr. Tango?"
