[Breaking news: A massive toxic gas leak occurred in Chiba City last night, covering an unprecedented area. Preliminary investigations indicate that approximately 13 people have died and more than 130 have been infected by the gas.]

[Regarding this gas leak incident, the government has already intervened with the military. Citizens are urged not to panic; the culprits will be brought to justice.]

Furthermore, the government has decided to conduct targeted inspections of chemical plants nationwide, and any plants found to have safety hazards will be demolished by explosives.

Justice may be absent, but it will never be late. Next, we'll show another news item.

Regarding this matter, the government has reiterated that due to a chemical plant wastewater leak polluting the entire ocean, the government is mobilizing the military for comprehensive control and treatment. Citizens are asked to remain calm.

Currently, the military has been deployed to coastal cities to launch comprehensive marine purification, pollution interception, and toxin control projects, addressing marine pollution issues around the clock...

……

Inside a luxury apartment in Tokyo.

Yukino Yukinoshita leaned back on the sofa, watching the news on TV, and joked, "13 dead? Those guys are really ruthless."

13 dead?

Are you kidding me!

Chiba City is the stronghold of the Yukinoshita family!

They knew all too well just how serious the disaster that had occurred there was!

"These are all necessary measures. Ordinary people don't need to know the exact number of deaths, and the government doesn't have the money to compensate them."

A cold voice came from the side.

Kaguya Shinomiya sat on the other side of the sofa, with Ai Hayasaka standing behind her like a guard.

Stacks of contracts were laid out in front of him.

Shinomiya Enen had already begun preparing for all of this as early as when the Chiba City incident had just occurred.

As a businessman, he wouldn't let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by.

The disaster in Chiba City became an opportunity to promote deeper cooperation between the Shinomiya Zaibatsu and the Yukinoshita Group.

With the help of Kaguya Shinomiya, they went to talk to the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family.

This way, he wouldn't look too bad while eating, and he could also take the opportunity to curry favor with Yukino Yukinoshita, or more accurately, the man behind her.

As for ordinary people, they're dead, and another batch will grow up in a few years anyway.

"That's true." Yukinoshita Haruno didn't dwell on these things after confirming that Yukino was alright.

The most urgent task now is to help the Yukinoshita family recover.

He picked up the contract and looked at it, then probed further with his words.

"Speaking of which, something's been off in Japan lately. They keep locking down this and that. Could it be that something's happened that we don't even know about?"

Kaguya Shinomiya did not answer; she simply sat there like a statue.

My thoughts had already drifted to Chiba...

"Such a serious accident happened in Chiba City, will Mercury be alright?"

"Or should I send him a message? No, no, no, that would make it seem like I'm showing concern for him."

"Besides, no matter how you look at it, he has superpowers. Those ordinary, lowly people can survive, so he definitely can too!"

"I'm still really worried, and why is that Yukino Yukinoshita in the same club as him?!"

"And that Tomie, the older sister, is living with Mercury! How shameless! She should be sunk into Tokyo Bay!"

The naive young lady, tricked by the blond-haired man, thought truthfully.

Hayasaka Ai rolled her eyes at her young mistress from behind.

Without even thinking, she knew what the young lady was thinking, and her body tensed up as she felt a stomachache.

Even now, she still can't understand the young lady's thought process!

……

the other side.

Hokkaido remains bustling, with heavy traffic and young people everywhere.

Laughter, noise, and the hurried pace of office workers, along with the crisis in Chiba City, seem like a farce from another world.

On one of the trails leading to an unnamed town, Mercury led Sylvie through the woods, where a winding and twisted town came into view.

I can't describe the feeling. My eyes looked perfectly normal, but inside I felt this small town...

Live!

"There's no mistake, it feels alive," Mercury commented, glancing at Sylvie, or more precisely, at the face that appeared on the shoulder of her clothes.

"Wow, you have a really sharp sense of things." The face suddenly opened its eyes and spoke in a mature, older-sister-like voice, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

Just as the face was speaking, Sylvie trembled and looked at Mercury.

"Don't be afraid." Mercury rubbed her head, his gaze returning to her face.

"Aurelia, you'd better prepare a lot of clothes this time—sailor uniforms, dresses, suits, nurse uniforms… I want them all."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took Sylvie's hand and stepped forward into this strange, living town.

The closer you get to the town center, the stronger that incongruous sense of vibrancy becomes.

The doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the street are crooked and twisted, and the bricks on the walls are not naturally weathered, but rather slightly raised and wriggling like flesh growing.

A few pedestrians walked along the road, their bodies stiff and straight, their limbs moving mechanically and strangely. Pairs of dark, empty eyes stared at the two people who had broken into the town.

There was no noise, no human voice; the entire street, which had been a facade of prosperity, was eerily silent.

He felt that everything here was breathing, growing, and watching him; the whole town was like a breathing monster.

"..."

Soon, the clothing stores in the center of the street came into view.

The gloomy clothing store is almost exactly the same as the one in Great Britain.

The eerie face on Sylvie's shoulder slowly melted into the fabric, as if it had never existed.

Instead, Aurelia herself stood in front of the clothing store.

A pure white long dress clung to her body, outlining her exaggerated and graceful curves. Loose, wavy long hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her red pupils were staring at the two of them with great interest.

"Long time no see, Mercury."

Aurelia spoke softly, her voice hoarse, as if something was tearing at her throat.

"Getting more and more flamboyant," Mercury commented, glancing at the clothes in the store.

"How did you get all the way from Great Britain? And how did you find such a creepy place?"

He pointed to the retro-styled town.

This place felt a bit like a den of iniquity to him... He couldn't bear to think about it!

In short, it evokes a feeling of warmth and comfort, yet also a desire to escape.

"That's a long story..." Feeling the breeze on her cheek, Aurelia's expression stiffened for a moment before she reverted to her gentle and considerate older sister demeanor.

She turned around and started picking out clothes.

"Sailor uniforms, kimonos, nurse uniforms, maid outfits, summer clothes, dresses, Shuya's clothes, and this cat-ear outfit~"

"Oh, by the way, you'd better pay enough money this time."
