On the weekend, Sei Itō, Mi Lei, Nina, and Shirley sat across from each other on the train heading to Mount Fuji.
"After all this time, I'm the only one here. Do I have time to accompany you?" Sei Itō looked at the three women beside him and smiled.
"Yeah, Karin said she can't come because she's not feeling well. Levi has to go to work. Luluxiu has something to do. Vermillion Bird also said she can't come because of work. In the end, you're the only one left." Shirley counted on her fingers and listed out the reasons why the others couldn't come.
"You're still not satisfied with the three of us beauties accompanying you? Do you have to have Karin around?" Mi Lei leaned her right elbow on the window frame and rested her cheek on the back of her hand. She looked at Sei Itō with a sly smile.
"Of course not. It's my honor to accompany the president." Sei Itō looked at Mi Lei with a surprised expression and said exaggeratedly.
"At least you know what's good for you. I'll leave the bodyguard mission to you." Mi Lei nodded and praised.
"Okay, I promise to complete the mission." Sei Itō nodded with a smile.
"This is my first time walking out of the Tokyo Concession," Shirley, who was looking out of the window, said excitedly.
"It would be great if Luluxiu could come too." Mi Lei teased, but Shirley retaliated with a kick. "Hey, what's the big deal? We can talk all night long about the boy we like."
"Does the president have someone she likes?" Shirley asked with a dark expression.
"What do you think?" Mi Lei looked out and smiled frivolously.
At this time, the train drove into a bridge tunnel, and the light in the carriage immediately dimmed. Nina, who was startled by this sudden change, immediately clenched her fists tightly, closed her eyes, and trembled all over.
"It's okay." Mi Lei, who noticed Nina's condition, reached out to hold Nina's hand and squatted in front of her. She looked up and comforted her softly. "There are many tourists in Britannia at Kaguchi Lake, so the security is very good. There's no need to be afraid like in the slums."
"But …" With Mi Lei's comfort, Nina calmed down a little. Ye Futian said.
"I'll accompany you. This time, I won't leave you alone," Mi Lei said, a frivolous smile appearing on her face once again. He looked at Sei Itō and said, "Besides, don't we have bodyguards?"
"Mhm," Nina also looked at Sei Itō following Mi Lei's hint and answered, feeling slightly relieved.
"Don't worry. With me here, you'll be fine," Sei Itō comforted Nina with a warm smile.
A short while later. The train left the pitch-black tunnel, and the bright sunlight that followed lit up the carriage once again. Then, a huge snow-covered Fuji appeared outside the window, attracting the attention of Shirley, Nina, and Milei.
…
Estuary Lake is an inland non-drainage lake. Together with Benqi Lake, Jingjin Lake, West Lake, and Yamanaka Lake, they are known as the five lakes of Fuji. It is the second largest lake among the five lakes, as well as the largest Yamanaka Lake in Japan. It is 831 meters above sea level and has a maximum depth of 15 meters. It covers an area of 5.7 square kilometers.
"Wow, it's so big!" Shirley exclaimed excitedly as she stood beside the protective fence near Estuary Lake. She leaned forward to look at the rippling water of the huge Estuary Lake.
"The wind is so comfortable," Mi Lei stood beside Shirley and reached out to stroke her hair that was blown up by the wind. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"It's so beautiful," Nina praised as she looked around, admiring the scenery around her.
"Let's go. Let's go down, "Mi Lei, who had finished enjoying the lake breeze, opened her eyes and happily called out to the others.
"Okay!" Shirley was the first to respond.
Then, they walked down the protective fence and began to enjoy the tour provided by the nearby area …
After an unknown amount of time, just as Sei Itō and the others were about to take a break and have a meal, several old Knightmare suddenly rushed over with weapons in hand. Then, they stopped halfway around the crowd. All the wanderers in the field were surrounded by them. Then, dozens of soldiers in old Japanese military uniforms ran out with submachine guns. The muzzles of the guns were aimed at the panicked wanderers in the field.
"We are the Japanese liberation front. Now, you are all captured. "Among the people who came, a fat man with a bulging belly. A middle-aged man with a katana on his waist walked to the front of the soldiers and shouted at the wanderers with a megaphone.
"Ah!" Although the wanderers were panicked at first, they didn't panic because they still had a glimmer of hope. However, the man's ruthless words completely shattered their hope, and they immediately screamed.
"Da da da da" Suddenly, a burst of gunfire sounded, and the wanderers who were screaming were completely shocked. The smell of gunpowder and the sound of bullet shells hitting the ground were infinitely magnified at this time, stimulating the wanderers' fragile nerves and forcing them to be obedient again.
"Take them away!" The middle-aged man looked at the wanderers who were obedient again with satisfaction and waved his hand to order the others.
"Yes!" The soldiers responded and immediately ran forward. They cooperated with Knightmare to take the wanderers to the distance step by step.
Soon, the wanderers were led by the soldiers of the Japanese liberation front to a landmark building on Kawaguchi Lake, the United Nations Center Hotel. They took the elevator to one of the floors and were locked in a room similar to a warehouse for sundries. Around them, more than a dozen soldiers with light machine guns pointed their muzzles at the wanderers and guarded them closely.
"Squat down with your hands on your heads." The middle-aged man with a big belly leaned on the katana in front of him and shouted loudly.
The wanderers who became prisoners obediently put their hands behind their heads and squatted down.
"Come on, take a picture of what they look like now and send it to Britannia." The middle-aged man said to the soldier next to him.
"Yes, sir," the soldier replied, then turned and ran out. After a while, he came back with something like a DV and filmed the wanderers in a very professional manner.
After a while, the soldier put away the DV and returned to the middle-aged man and said, "It's done."
"I am Kusakabe from the Japan Liberation Front. We are fighting for the liberation of Japan. Although you are not soldiers, you are Britanians. You are the people who rule us. If you are obedient, we will not hurt you. Otherwise …" The middle-aged man named Kusakabe stood at the door and said to the hostages.
"Lulu …" Shirley murmured next to him.
"Leave a few people here to guard them. If anyone resists, shoot them directly." Kusakabe then looked contemptuously at the many hostages who were squatting with their hands on their heads, turned and left the room.
"Bang!" The door immediately closed after Kusakabe left, and the room fell into darkness in an instant.
Taking this opportunity, Sei Itō looked up and observed the situation of the soldiers in the room. Seeing that the few people who stayed behind were all focused and nervous, and would instinctively pull the trigger at the slightest movement, Sei Itō, who was afraid that they would accidentally hurt Nina, Shirley, and Milei, decided to hold back for the time being and wait for an opportunity to strike.
After an unknown amount of time, one of the soldiers became impatient and began to walk in front of the hostages. Just as he walked in front of Milei and Nina, Nina, who was affected by the footsteps, subconsciously looked up. After seeing the soldier in front of her, she said unconsciously, "We are from District 11."
The room was quiet to begin with. In a situation where even the sound of an embroidery needle falling to the ground could be heard, Nina's voice was like thunder. In an instant, the soldier's expression changed. With a ferocious face, he raised his gun and shouted at Nina, "What did you just say? You called us from District 11? We are Japanese!"
"I know, so please stop," Milei shouted at the soldier with an annoyed expression.
"Correct it, we are not from District 11," the soldier ordered loudly.
"Let's correct it, okay?" Shirley shouted.
"What kind of attitude is that?" The soldier, who had entered a hysterical state, shouted at any voice, "Come to the next room. I have to teach you a good lesson."
"Ah!" Nina screamed in fear.
At this time, several other soldiers who were guarding the hostages also came over, ready to help their companions teach Nina a lesson. Seeing the opportunity, Sei Itō did not hesitate. He instantly got up from the ground and slammed his right palm on the chin of the soldier who was bending over. The huge impact instantly poured into the soldier's brain and knocked him out. At this moment, Sei Itō hugged the soldier's body and used it as a shield. Then, he grabbed the soldier's weapon with his free right hand and fired several shots under the guidance of his mind power.
After a few gunshots, a few heavy objects fell to the ground and made a muffled sound.
"Are you okay, Nina?" After dealing with all the soldiers, Sei Itō squatted in front of Nina, who was in Milei's arms, and asked softly.
"Boohoo …" Nina just lay in Milei's arms and cried without saying a word.
"What should we do now?" Although Milei was shocked by Sei Itō's skills, she knew that now was not the time to ask too many questions. She only asked Sei Itō what to do next.
Sei Itō did not immediately answer Milei's question. Instead, he looked around the hostages who were looking at him expectantly. Finally, his eyes stopped on a woman with long pink hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on her nose. He got up and walked over to her.
Seeing Sei Itō walking over, a short-haired woman in a gray female suit next to Euphemia suddenly got up and stood in front of Sei Itō, staring at him warily.
"It's okay." Euphemia, who also got up, reached out to grab the short-haired woman's arm and shook her head. Then, she said to Sei Itō, "Long time no see."
"Long time no see, Euphemia," Sei Itō replied. Then, his eyes fell on the short-haired woman in front of Euphemia and said, "This is your bodyguard, right?"
"Yes." Euphemia nodded.
"Well, tell her to go over there and get a weapon. Cooperate with you to stabilize this group of hostages. Don't let them run around and scream," Sei Itō ordered.
