Survive in Azure Files

By the way, these glasses were lent to me by Ayane.

I said in a deep voice: "Student Lu Bamo, please take a seat."

After a brief moment of confusion, Alu, who thought the scene was very cool, became excited, found a seat and sat down obediently, waiting expectantly for what would happen next.

I took off my glasses and handed them back to Ayane, then looked directly at A-Lu and said with deep sorrow:

"Alu, I trusted you so much, but you actually left me and ran away."

"what?"

Alu said in confusion: "Doesn't Hina have any hostility towards you, Sensei? If our convenience store stays on the battlefield, it will only affect the mood of Hina's subordinates who think they are here to arrest us."

I was shocked: "Who are you? Where did you hide A Lu?"

Alu was shocked: "Sensei, you don't think I'm stupid, do you?"

It turns out that Alu might not really be stupid, she just has a little brain defect.

I no longer had the intention to tease Alu, so I held a war plan meeting with the people present.

"The employer has our combat data. Although we held back during the test, the forces they sent this time are far from enough to fight against our convenience house."

With this information, the conclusion is...

"Is their real goal to destroy Shibaguan Ramen?"

"I think the Caesar Group is trying to force away the merchants around Abydos so that they can launch a general attack on us, right?"

This is a reasonable assumption, given that the vast majority of the land in the Abydos autonomous region already belonged to Caesar.

As landowners, there is no need to use force to close shops in the Abydos Autonomous Region.

Combined with the information provided by Hina, I think this attack is more likely a deterrent.

Use the personal safety of our acquaintances as a deterrent.

This time they only bombarded the shop, causing minor injuries to General Chai, but what about next time?

Given the Caesars Group's moral bottom line, it is only natural to involve irrelevant people.

I think it's time to be honest with Hoshino first.

But Hoshino didn't come back until the evening, and momotalk replied that a thorough search was needed and it would take until very late.

And because I have an appointment with Hina tomorrow, I can only leave Abydos with the students of Convenience House 68 and go back to Xialai to rest.

I'll talk to Hoshino after the Disciplinary Committee's trip is over.

Chapter 30 Prelude

One o'clock.

Hoshino and Shirako came to an abandoned factory building.

"Hey~ That's the end. Sorry, Baizi, I made you work so late. You must be very sleepy, right?"

Speaking of this, it was Hoshino himself who yawned.

Bai Zi shook his head: "It's okay for me. I sometimes work out until this time."

"That won't do. Baizi, you're still growing up."

Hoshino thought for a moment and said, "Then, let me, an old man who doesn't mind staying up late, complete the final work alone~"

"It really doesn't matter to me. Besides, two people will be more efficient."

"Okay, okay, be obedient. You just stay outside to pick me up, and watch my bag for a while. My old waist can't take it anymore after carrying it for so long. Thank you very much."

Hoshino said this in a tone that brooked no argument, stuffed the schoolbag into Baizi's arms, and walked straight into the factory.

Watching Hoshino's figure disappear into the darkness, Bai Zi looked down at Hoshino's schoolbag, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

It wasn't that he was worried that Hoshino would get into danger if he acted alone, but rather some strange intuition was at work.

Driven by this intuition, Bai Zi opened Hoshino's schoolbag and started searching.

Until she found an application form hidden in a layer with her signature already on it.

Bai Zi's pupils suddenly contracted.

-

seven in the morning.

On the running train, Hoshino yawned and complained to the junior beside him:

"Why do you have to ask me to come? Doesn't Nomiya want to participate?"

Qin Xiang said unhappily, "Really? Of course, it should be the chairman or advisor sensei who personally leads the team to visit, which is in line with basic etiquette, right?"

In a nutshell, Hoshino, Serika and Nomiya were on their way to a nearby hospital to visit General Shiba who was hospitalized.

Although it's nearby, it's actually in the autonomous area of ​​another academy, so we have to take the train.

Hoshino sighed, "Haha~ Wasn't sensei originally scheduled to be the leader? It's okay to postpone it to the next one."

"Sensei has serious work to do today. Hoshino-senpai has nothing to do at school all day, so he should occasionally accompany us to do some serious work."

Ayane also said: "Senior Hoshino, we can only trouble you with this matter."

"Well, since the younger generation has said so, I, as an uncle, should show some enthusiasm!"

On this point, Hoshino did what he said.

After arriving at General Chai's ward, Hoshino changed his usual lazy and frivolous appearance and greeted General Chai in a serious manner:

"Good morning, General. We are here to visit you."

"Hey, Serika, Hoshino, and Ayane are here too. Thank you so much for coming to visit me so early in the morning."

"How are you feeling?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a scratch."

Qinxiang couldn't help but said: "But, your shop..."

"Ah, I'm sorry I can't let you work there. But I was planning to close the store anyway, it's just a little earlier now."

Amid the public's surprise, General Chai said:

“I received a demolition notice from the owner some time ago.”

Hoshino frowned slightly: "Owner...?"

-

Eleven o'clock noon.

Having returned to Abydos College of Higher Education, Hoshino and Ayane Serika are searching deep in the archives room.

Because General Chai said, 'the ownership of the buildings and land in Abydos was transferred a few years ago', several people are looking for substantial evidence.

"How strange... where is the land register... ahem!"

As she was talking, Qinxiang accidentally inhaled dust, covered her mouth and nose and couldn't help coughing.

The halo can protect against damage from bullets and explosions, but it cannot prevent fine particles from entering the respiratory system.

Ayane reminded: "Qingxiang, be careful, cough... wait a moment, I, I will take off the mask!"

Ayane ran out quickly, came back wearing a mask, and handed the other two masks to Serika and Hoshino.

After putting it on, Qinxiang complained, "Why is there so much dust here?"

"I'm sorry... because the information here is not usually used, and it is difficult to clean up, so I haven't found the time to clean it..."

Listening to the conversation between two juniors.

Hoshino picked up a folder from the bookshelf, opened it to check, closed it again, and looked at the cover thoughtfully.

Xingye asked abruptly: "Come to think of it, who has the key to our archives room?"

Ayane was a little confused: "Only the members of our countermeasures committee have it."

"Including sensei?"

"Of course, why are you asking this, Senior Hoshino?"

"Nothing, just asking."

Hoshino pressed his fingers on the cover of the folder, leaving a very faint mark.

As if to expel all the air from his lungs, Hoshino closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

Then, she brushed off the almost non-existent dust on the folder with her hands. Because of the mask, she only needed to open her eyes wide to pretend to be surprised:

"Ah! I think I found it!"

-

Half past eleven.

I am visiting the office of the Discipline Committee Chairman in Gehenna.

To be precise, I was watching Yazi handle official business.

As for why things turned out like this...

First of all, as a visitor, my specific itinerary should be arranged by the administrator.

That's the very despicable guy.

Hina probably wanted to give Ako and I an opportunity to make peace, but on the contrary, Ako seemed to think that she had found an opportunity to settle a personal grudge.

Although I couldn't do anything drastic because of Hina's pressure, Ako only arranged one itinerary for me.

That is, in the office of the Disciplinary Committee Chairman, observing the Disciplinary Committee Chairman handling official business.

The reasons given by Yazi are very sufficient:

There are too many undisciplined students in Gehenna, and the discipline committee is seriously understaffed and unable to protect my personal safety.

So I was only allowed to stay in the chairman's office.

At the same time, although we are just observing, the confidential documents of the Disciplinary Committee cannot be shown to outsiders.

So I was only allowed to look at the chairman's hand.

Under the supervision of Yazi, who was punished to write a thousand apologies.

I think that Yazi is a genius to come up with such a magical way of revenge.

But it also constitutes logical self-consistency to a certain extent.

So the situation is like this:

Hina was processing documents behind her desk. I was staring at Hina's hands not far away. Ako was writing a few words with her head down opposite me and then looked up to make sure my gaze was not diverted.

Anyway, I think it's quite interesting.

The interesting thing is that this situation lasted for less than a minute before Hina couldn't stand it anymore.

In front of me, Hina scolded Ako and ordered her to pick out ordinary documents that did not involve confidential information. Then she asked Ako to process them and show them to me.

Yazi's reluctant expression is really worth savoring.

And just then.

I received a message from Hoshino.

Chapter 31 Preparation

Hoshino: sensei.

Hoshino: We just discovered something.

Hoshino: Several years ago, the land ownership of the Abydos Autonomous Region was taken away by the Caesar Group.

Hoshino: We need to hold a new operations meeting now.
