Mygo, New Tokyo Black Girl

However, at this moment, Shiina Riki was smiling.

Yes, in this round of close combat, she, Shiina Riki, was indeed defeated by her opponent.

For a drummer who prides himself on his excellent short-hitting skills, this is definitely something to be ashamed of.

However, also as a "drummer", she has perfectly fulfilled her duties in the battle.

During the brief close combat between Shiina Riki and the Lord of the Burning City just now, the other members of the Lost Group would not just stand there and stare blankly!

Takamatsu Deng's bullet, which would never accidentally injure his teammates even in such close combat, hit the Lord of the Burning City, creating many new bloody holes in the body of this ninja master with superb skills and tactics.

The situation where the Lord of the Burning City was unable to cause effective damage due to his strange and mysterious mental image was reversed by Shiina Riki single-handedly!

Yao Le Nai also did not miss any opportunity during the battle between her grandmother and her companions. She kept pulling the bowstring towards the direction where her grandmother could dodge, shooting arrow after arrow, compressing the space where the ninja master could evade.

Nagasaki Motoyo completed the mental intervention of Chihaya Aine who had fallen into a frenzy, and saved Aine from the state of losing her mind and shooting randomly.

After coming to her senses, Chihaya Aion immediately unfolded her mind image, and the light like the blue sky shone brightly. The serious injuries on Nagasaki Motoyo's body healed quickly under the effect of Chihaya Aion's mind image.

Afterwards, the two people who had completed mental and physical treatment each took their own weapons and provided support to the three companions who were attacking the Lord of the Burning City.

After a short five-to-one siege, the Lord of the Burning City was finally severely injured in all four limbs, unable to move, and fell to the ground.

The Lost Group won.

At the end of his life, the Lord of the Burning City still let out an incomprehensible hoarse roar.

Even though Nagasaki Suyo tried hard to use his mental imagery, he was unable to restore consciousness to the old man who had completely turned into a monster.

When Nagasaki Sushi's mental power was about to run out, Kaname Rakuna made up his mind, shook his head at Sushi, and walked forward.

Kaname Rakuna placed his ninja sword on his grandmother's neck.

For the residents of Neo-Tokyo, today was a typical day.

The biggest news today is that the fire disaster that has been raging in the harbor area for a long time has been effectively controlled.

It was also today, in a corner where no one cared, that the legendary ninja of New Tokyo died, killed by the knife of her most beloved granddaughter, the rookie ninja Kaname Rakuna.

Rebellious Doll: Chapter 160: Echoes from the Distance

The fire in the harbor area that shook the entire New Tokyo area has come to an end.

In the past few days, various news media reported that the degree of fire control has rapidly increased from "zero percent control" to "eleven percent control."

Of course, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this report on the fire being under control is just a whitewash.

How can one claim that the fire control level in a region has been improved from zero to just over ten digits when a fire breaks out?

In other words, what this statement actually means is that the fire was so severe that it could not be burned in 11% of the area.

Now everyone knows that the fire brigade of the Harbor District has no intention of extinguishing the fire in this place.

The fire in the harbor area became a hot topic in the gambling industry in New Tokyo, and the odds of betting options that bet that the fire in the harbor area would not be effectively controlled and that the area burned would exceed half of the area fell all the way.

However, after a while, the situation seemed to have undergone new subtle changes.

Just when most people were convinced that most of the Harbor District was doomed to be reduced to ashes, various news media suddenly reported great news, claiming that the fire in the Harbor District had been miraculously brought under control!

The fire control rate soared in the reports and soon reached 60 percent.

There were even rumors that the fire in the harbor area would soon be extinguished.

This effective control of major disasters immediately became an excellent topic for the Minato Ward Council and the New Tokyo Municipal Government to boast about their great achievements and excellent emergency plans.

Although these reports did not mention specific fire-fighting measures, the fire front formed by those houses in the harbor area that were relatively intact in the disaster area could not be faked.

No matter how unbelievable it was, people had to believe at this time that the fire was really under control.

This is undoubtedly great news for those who hope that the New Tokyo metropolitan area can become slightly more stable.

However, for those gambling participants who pulled the lever and heavily supported the uncontrollable fire in the harbor area, the situation was not necessarily the same.

Now bad news came from many places in New Tokyo. Those gamblers who had already won the game and were waiting to collect their winnings rushed to the high-rise and not-so-high buildings all over New Tokyo, uttering desperate curses at this city that actually carried out effective firefighting operations, and dancing an aerial ballet at the end of their lives.

Well, anyway, those who own houses or properties in the harbor area can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that the fire in the Harbor District is under control, they can finally avoid the situation of "paying still-high property taxes on a piece of land that has been burned to ashes."

Well, maybe only more than half of the people can avoid the embarrassing situation of paying property taxes for a piece of flat land. After all, these days of burning are not without effect.

At this time, some people discovered that there seemed to be some relatively serious problems with the Haigang District Emergency Management Bureau, which was previously responsible for fire safety in Haigang District.

To put it simply, it can be described in four words: "saving the source and opening the flow."

The first is "saving resources". Not long ago, the mayor of the New Tokyo Port District and the local council cut a large amount of funding budget for the local emergency management bureau.

This move directly led to the delay in updating fire-fighting equipment and insufficient training for front-line firefighters.

Simply put, when the fire broke out, the fire hydrants in the area were generally out of water.

Moreover, at this time, before the fire broke out, a large number of commercial insurance companies had already withdrawn their insurance from the area and terminated the residents' fire insurance contracts in advance.

Putting aside those insurance companies that are operating in a formal market, many residents suffered heavy losses in the fire. At this time, the officials of the Harbor District actually have a fund that can be used to provide a safety net for these affected people.

So, how much is the total amount of this guarantee fund?

The total is 700 million US dollars.

This amount of money is indeed quite a lot compared to what we have already spent.

However, compared to the average house price in the area, which is already over 3.5 million US dollars, it is probably not enough to compensate for several more houses.

In this situation, the Emergency Management Bureau of Haigang District seemed helpless and could only watch the victims fall into trouble.

Fortunately, a group of people came to the homeowners who were troubled by the fire and tried to help them solve their problems before the official rescue agencies in the harbor area came to their door.

These people are of course… real estate agents!

This is how real estate agents persuaded homeowners whose homes had been engulfed by fire:

"Your house is so shabby. This place has appreciated in value. It's all occupied by wealthy people. You guys were already a bit out of place, and now your house has burned down..."

“Reconstruction costs a lot of money, but the Harbor District officials won’t give it to you, and the insurance has already been refunded.

"So, we at the real estate agency will just give you some money and you can move out."

The location of the harbor area is good and is very suitable for building some high-end clubs for high-income groups.

Compared to this matter involving a relatively large amount of property transactions, the victims whose lives were threatened in this disaster did not seem to receive much attention.

There weren’t many reports in the media.

Regarding this matter, there have been some critical voices in the media.

It was those who held more conservative views who spoke out on online platforms and in mainstream media, criticizing those who were unwilling to evacuate immediately when the harbor area management issued an early warning, believing that they lacked a sense of crisis.

There was soon a lot of opposition to this situation on the Internet.

Opponents pointed out that before this fire, there had been two "false alarms" in recent times.

During those two alerts, emergency evacuation notices were issued to residents of the harbor area, issued via a level-zero text message that was pushed to mobile phones.

The text message demanded: "Evacuate immediately, take your family and pets with you, this is not a drill!"

As a result, it was discovered afterwards that this so-called "true alarm" turned out to be a false alarm.

Alas, everyone must have heard the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf". In this case, of course there would be a large number of people at the disaster site that day who did not believe the last "warning".

The above section is about some of the reported issues related to "energy conservation" in the Harbor District fire incident.

Next comes the "open flow" part.

Rebellious Dolls: Chapter 161: Anonymous Heroes of Tokyo

Although the Haigang District Emergency Management Bureau is facing some minor funding shortages, compared to these issues, the current platforms seem to be paying more attention to the department's expenditures.

Many people have questioned why, despite the frequent fires, the Emergency Management Bureau's budget has not been effectively used for preventive measures and post-disaster reconstruction.

The results of exploration in this area can be said to be gratifying.

According to information dug up by netizens who pay close attention to the Haigang District Emergency Management Bureau, the department with the largest share of expenditure in the Emergency Management Bureau in the past year is called the "Department of Diversity, Equality and Human Resources Affairs."

The salaries of the department's ministers and senior executives are generally at the level of US$400,000 per year.

The department is primarily responsible for employee training and promoting equality and diversity programs within the Emergency Management Agency in areas such as race and gender.

Well, it is not easy to explain the specific work of this department in a concise and concise language.

However, from the fact that it expanded and extended the simple name of the original "Human Resources Department" of the Emergency Management Bureau and named it with the emphasis on "diversity", it can be seen that its work focus has shifted.

As to whether there are any actual results in the work of this rather special department, it is difficult for outsiders to judge.

However, for now, among the information disclosed on the online platform, there is the department that has caused the personnel appointments of the Emergency Management Bureau to seem to not prioritize ability or work qualifications but to consider gender and racial diversity more.

For example, a department head who took office in recent years, although his professional background has nothing to do with emergency management, was appointed to the key position of the head of this department because he is a minority in New Tokyo - a black American biological woman and a person of minority sexual orientation.

And that’s not all. When facing questions from voices on the online platform, the deputy director of the “Diversity, Equality and Human Resources Department” once made a public statement on the online platform.

Faced with online doubts about her ability to handle positions related to fire protection and emergency management, the first black American female director of the "Equality Department" in the Harbor District filmed a short video to publicly respond to external doubts.

The first is a response describing the content of one's job, which is as follows:

"When we receive emergency calls from the public, whether they are medical or fire, we can provide them with a more comfortable and relaxed feeling.

"When they know there are people who understand what they're facing, we can provide some emotional comfort."

Regarding people's response to questions about the director's ability, she said:

"To those who question me, who say, 'Is she strong enough to do this?' or 'You couldn't get my husband out of the fire?' ...

"My answer is: If he wants me to save him from the fire, he's in the wrong place."

This simple video interview was released online, and it really caused a huge uproar.

The main responsibility of the Emergency Management Bureau is firefighting.

When someone in a fire calls the fire department and says, "I can't rescue someone, please come and rescue someone."

Then the response from the other end of the phone was: "You're in the wrong place. Who told him to be there?"

Or, when asked what firefighters can provide, the answers they get are "emotional comfort" or "I can make you feel better, relax~". This absurd reality really irritates the nerves of the people of New Tokyo.

The public remarks made by this senior official of the Emergency Management Bureau undoubtedly made people think of such a situation.

In short, after the fire destroyed nearly half of the harbor area, a strong wave of dissatisfaction against the Emergency Management Bureau, insurance companies, and many other stakeholders or groups was indeed set off in New Tokyo.

= 弍咎靈污⒊吧⑺一衣 Of course, this latest topic that spread across various social platforms and public media did not have any special impact on the five girls in the Lost Group.

Although as a team that directly destroyed the "burning city", the most important direct cause of the fire disaster in the harbor area, and made direct contributions, the Lost Group should perhaps receive some praise and recognition.

However, after all, there are too many secrets that are not convenient to be disclosed to the outside world at present, and not many people are lucky enough to witness the fierce scene of the confrontation between the Lost Group and the fanatics of the Burning City.

Therefore, although these five girls, whose main business is gang activities, have objectively made certain contributions to the safety of New Tokyo, only a very few people know what the Lost Group did during this natural and man-made disaster.

Of course, the five members of the Lost Group had no intention of being conspicuous and accepting those so-called public interviews at this moment.

Even Qian Bashan, who loved to show off the most, had no intention of making her thrilling experience public.

What's more, all five members of the Lost Group were seriously injured in this operation.

As the person who was directly driven into madness by the invasion of the Burning City, Chihaya Aine herself has had to receive psychological intervention treatment based on her mental imagery ability from Nagasaki Motoyo every day in the past few days.

There are two other people like Chihaya Aine who are physically and mentally traumatized in the Lost Child Group.

For example, Tatsuki Shiina, the "drummer" in the Lost Team, became the carrier of the wandering mental power of the Burnt City in this operation, and thereby completed her own mental awakening.

Although Shiina Tatsuki insisted that she was in good condition, Nagasaki Suyo still forced her to participate in her psychotherapy treatment.

As for the other member, it's Kaname Rakuna.

Lenai's problem is also quite serious. Even Nagasaki Suyo, who has the ability to intervene with mental images in the spiritual realm, can only provide some spiritual comfort.

After all, this knot and pain that has been searched for her for a long time and that her relatives have been looking forward to reuniting with her every day will become an important part of Kaname's character and soul.

It is not a problem that can be solved directly through spiritual intervention.

There were also physical injuries. Nagasaki Suyo herself had her internal organs severely damaged. Although she recovered quickly under Chihaya Aine's mental treatment, she has been taking various nutritional supplements and foods to regulate her body in the past few days.

Shiina Riki suffered severe dehydration and burns during the operation, and her vital signs were stabilized only after Chihaya Aine's emergency treatment.
