Kivotos, I was deeply shocked!

"Dinner? Where is the dinner?"

As if some strange switch had been triggered, Hoshino Kotori's ears moved and she suddenly woke up from her sleep. She raised her head and subconsciously wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth with her sleeves, looking around in confusion, "Is it time for dinner already?"

"There's no dinner!"

Kuromi Serika was amused by the lazy look of Kotori Hoshino, who woke up and fell asleep, slept and woke up again, and then started looking for something to eat.

Where on earth did that senior who was so reliable on the battlefield a few days ago go? !

Forget it, it’s better if that reliable-looking Hoshino-senpai never appears again.

But lessons must be learned.

"He who does not work shall not eat!"

Kuromi Serika stuffed the broom and dustpan in her hands into Hoshino Kotori's hands, and said with a serious face that would not tolerate any refusal, "The corridor and stairwell have not been cleaned yet. When Senior Hoshino cleans them up, we will have dinner!"

"..."

Hoshino Takanashi glanced at the broom and dustpan in his arms as if he had not yet woken up, then looked at the not-so-cute junior who was standing in front of him with his arms folded and his pupils erect.

After a moment's silence, she stuffed the cleaning tools in her arms back into Kuromi Serika's hands, and under Kuromi Serika's stunned gaze, she lay back on the desk.

"Uncle, I must still be asleep to have this nightmare."

An indistinct mumble came out of the little mouth buried in the arm. Hoshino Kotori twisted her neck and adjusted her head to a more comfortable position. "Just sleep a little longer, sleep a little longer, and everything will be fine when you wake up."

“Hoshino…!”

"Celery sauce."

Just as Kuromi Serika was about to say something in frustration, Izayoi Nomiya smiled and stretched out her hand to stop her.

Under the puzzled gaze of the junior, the girl put her index finger to her lips and whispered, "Just let Senior Xingye have a good rest. She has been working very hard these nights when we can't see her."

"..."

Looking at the split tips of Hoshino Kotori's hair draped over her shoulders and the layer of gray dust covering her long hair, Kuromi Serika pursed her lips and nodded her chin heavily towards Izayonomiya.

The girl stood on tiptoe and carefully put the broom and dustpan in her hands into the bathroom cabinet, trying not to make any noise. Then she stood on tiptoe again and quietly followed Izayoi Nomiya out of the classroom, closing the door gently.

The setting sun gradually sank into the horizon, and after the last ray of afterglow was obscured by the endless sand dunes of Abydos, the bright stars finally showed their faces behind the clouds.

The night wind blew into the classroom window, and the curtains swayed like waves, making a rustling sound, like a lullaby hummed from the nose.

Jingle Bell--!

Jingle Bell--!

A bright light suddenly flashed in the dark classroom, and a shrill ring broke the silence of the night. Hoshino Kotori's shoulders trembled, she rubbed her hazy eyes, stretched subconsciously, and then took out her noisy cell phone from the drawer.

"Hello, who are you?"

"..."

A soft voice floated into the microphone, and the person on the other end was obviously caught off guard by this almost cute and intimate attitude. After a moment of silence, a voice slowly came out from the phone.

"Kotori Hoshino, it's me." A quiet voice introduced itself, "Sora Hina."

"Wow, it's Hinata-chan!"

Hoshino Kotori instantly perked up, even his waist that was limp on the desk straightened up involuntarily, "Uncle, is there any progress on what I'm asking you for?"

"Hina...chan?!"

The voice on the other end choked for a moment, as if unable to accept this sudden closeness. However, as the chairman of the Discipline Committee who had seen too many of Gehenna's antics, Kurosaki Hina quickly calmed down and said, "Yes, the information you asked me to investigate has come to light, so I called to inform you. I hope I didn't disturb your rest."

"Hey, hey, I should be the one saying this, uncle."

Hoshino Takanashi took down the riot shield, shotgun, and tactical vest hanging on the wall while laughing sheepishly, "After the teacher's tossing, Hina-chan, you must have a lot more work to deal with. Now you even have to spend energy to solve my commission. It's really hard work."

Kurosaki Hina covered her phone and subconsciously glanced at the documents about Caesar Group piled on the table, which were higher than her head. The corner of her eye twitched.

"Alright, okay."

The girl shook her head insincerely.

Chapter 22: Hoshino: Whoever calls Heifu, I will end his life!

"hiss……"

Taking a breath, Kurosaki Hina forced herself to look away from the pile of densely packed documents. After calming down, she said seriously, "But there is one thing I must remind you, Hoshino Kotori."

"Yeah, yeah, Hinata-chan, just speak up."

Hoshino Kotori loaded 12-caliber single-headed bullets into the magazine, feeling the coldness of the evening breeze blowing across his ears, and shivered, "Uncle, I promise to listen carefully."

"Before I went to protect your schoolmates, the teacher reminded me that if I encountered someone with a strange head, I could immediately give up the action of rescuing you and focus on protecting myself."

Ignoring the strange habit of Hoshino Kotori, Kurosaki Hina's tone was unusually serious, "It can be seen that in the teacher's opinion, the black braised egg brain... no, that black suit you asked me to find, must be hiding some unknown means, which even the teacher with the authority of [Xia Lai] has not been able to investigate clearly."

"Well, thanks for your concern, Hinata-chan, but please don't worry about it."

After loading the last bullet into the magazine, Hoshino Kotori pulled the bolt and laughed, "Uncle, I've been dealing with them for several years. I know what hidden tricks they have... At least on this point, I know better than the teacher."

The girl patted her chest loudly. "So feel free to send me the location of the guy in the black suit."

"..."

With an imperceptible sigh, Hina Sorasaki slid the screen of her phone and sent the information she had found out to the MOMOTALK friend that Hoshino Takanashi had actively asked her to add yesterday.

【Please be careful. 】

After hesitating for a while, she still sent the five words she had typed in the dialog box.

[Remember to keep it a secret from the teacher, Hinata-chan o(*￣︶￣*)o]

Almost instantly, Hoshino Takanashi sent an emoticon with an unknown meaning.

Kurosaki Hina put down her phone and rubbed her aching temple.

She really didn't know how to deal with someone who was joking seriously when he should be serious.

"Chairman."

A worried voice came from the front. Kurosaki Hina looked up and saw Ayako Amane, who was holding a stack of documents, had just pushed open the office door with her elbow.

The girl pressed her chin against the pile of documents in her arms, turned slightly sideways, and closed the door of the Discipline Committee activity room with the heel of her high heels. "Are you okay?"

Kurosaki Hina shook her head, "Just some small things from another school."

Tian Yu Azi stood on tiptoe and stacked the stack of documents in her arms on the already high pile of Caesar Group-related documents on the desk. Then she took two steps at a time and ran away to get a cup of steaming hot tea, then ran back and put it on the few empty areas on the desk in front of Kurosaki Hina.

"Thank you for your hard work, Azi."

Kurosaki Hina picked up the teacup and took a sip, then nodded gently to Tian Yuyazi, "I'm sorry to have you come in so late to work overtime with me."

"It's okay, Chairman. As your personal secretary, I should have taken the initiative to do this little thing."

Tian Yu Azi waved her hands repeatedly, looking at the pile of documents on the desk that surrounded Kurosaki Hina so tightly that she couldn't even see a single person. She hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "This pile of documents related to the Caesar Group... How about I help you deal with half of it?"

"…Forget it, Yazi, let me handle matters related to the Caesars Group."

Without any hesitation, Hina Sorasaki rejected Ayako Amane's offer. She put down her teacup, reached out and picked up the document next to her which was relatively thin - but still as thick as a fist - and put it in Ayako Amane's hand.

"You will be responsible for the documents related to the Pandemonium and various societies."

"……All right."

Looking at the insignificant documents in her hand compared to those on the chairman's, Tian Yu Yazi tried hard to hide the reluctance on her face and saluted in a very standard way, "I promise to complete the task!"

"Ah."

Hina Kurosaki didn't say anything else. She rubbed her sore eyes and wrists, and buried her head again in the seemingly endless pile of documents.

As a seventeen-year-old girl, Hina Sorasaki wants everything a seventeen-year-old girl wants.

I want to complain, to act coquettishly, to get rid of all my worries, to take a deep sleep for the whole afternoon, then turn off my cell phone, not go to school, and just lie in bed all day without watching or listening to anything.

But as the chairman of the Discipline Committee, this is not possible.

Because she will not shirk her responsibilities.

-------------------------------------

Well, you have to solve the troubles you caused yourself.

It would be too embarrassing if I troubled the teacher or Baizi-chan and the others again.

Hoshino Kotori looked up at the building in front of him that Caesar Group had built in Abydos at some point in time. He suddenly felt a little uneasy and looked around nervously.

I hope the teacher or Baizi-chan and the others won’t find out that I’m doing something bad on my own initiative again.

"Warning, the area ahead is a private area. Without a relevant pass, trespassing is strictly prohibited!"

Just as Hoshino Takanashi was looking around, an armed robot with the Caesar Group's octopus logo on its chest armor walked up to the girl.

Its eyes glowed red, and the muzzle of the automatic rifle in its hand was pointed at the girl's head. "For undocumented intruders, Caesar Group has the right to violently expel them!"

"I have a pass, uncle."

Hoshino Kotori smiled and raised his clenched right fist in front of the guard robot, "Look, this is it."

According to the set degree of fixation, the guard robot was just about to lower its head to scan Kotori Hoshino's right hand when a white and tender fist with five clenched fingers appeared infinitely magnified in its field of vision.

boom!

A dull echo broke the silence of the night. A black shadow flew up in a spin, tumbling for a long distance, and finally rolled slowly to the toes of another robot on duty and stopped.

The robot on duty lowered its head, revealing a square head with a sunken camera that was constantly emitting sparks, and it was looking at him with its fragmented eyes.

"How about this pass? Is it convincing enough?"

With a whoosh, Hoshino Takanashi took off the explosion-proof shield from her back with her backhand. After adjusting her posture slightly, the girl placed the shotgun in her hand on the gap in the explosion-proof shield specially used for holding guns, leaving only a tuft of pink hair exposed.

"If you have no objection..."

Bang!

In the darkness, the single-barreled bullet drew a trajectory that was invisible to the naked eye and smashed the head of a robot that had just picked up a sniper rifle on the watchtower.

"Uncle, I'm about to come in~"

Chapter 23 Black Server: 100% Winning Rate Rune against Kotori Yui has been equipped

"Yes, yes, I understand. I can also see the fire clearly over here. Please don't worry."

"You said you wanted to ask how to deal with it? Just handle it the way you did before. There's no need to ask for my opinion."

"Oh, yes, but there is something I want to ask you."

The man in black with a bandage on his left cheek picked up the phone on the table and turned to look out the window. There, the cut-off armed robots and the blazing war vehicles stretched all the way to the front door of his office building, and then spread inside.

But to be honest, he doesn't really care about these little things.

He placed the microphone between his shoulder and ear, and with the light from the burning flame, he seemed to be searching for something carefully. "Besides Hoshino-san, did you see a tall, black-haired figure?"

"Ah, didn't you see it..."

After a moment, after hearing the exact answer from the other end, the man in black sincerely said with regret, "Then I will hang up the phone first and not disturb you at work. I wish you good luck in your work."

Bang!

A dark shadow stepped backwards and smashed the office door. Amid the flying wood chips and twisted door lock, the man in black holding the microphone slightly turned his body. The rotating door handle brushed past his forehead and hit the explosion-proof glass heavily.

boom!

The dull sound echoed throughout the room along the glass and walls. With the metal door handle embedded in the glass as the center, dense white cracks like a spider web instantly covered the entire floor-to-ceiling window, and tiny glass shards flew out and rolled on the ground.

Heifu shook his head. He slowly withdrew his gaze from the door handle on the window, looked at the door, and sighed, "Xingye-san, after tonight, we may never see each other again in our lives. Why are you doing this?"

"Well, although it's disgusting and makes me want to vomit, I do feel the same as you."

Pulling the bolt, a shell with residual heat was thrown out of the shotgun. Hoshino Kotori kicked away the robot guarding the door, which was only half of its butt left, while loading bullets into the magazine again.

"So I had to hurry to the last night to see you for the last time."

"Well - if I remember correctly, after the Caesar Group released that news, our [Numerology] forces have gradually begun to withdraw from Abydos."

The man in black hung up the phone with a puzzled look on his face. "Did some misunderstanding happen here? That's why you're so angry now and come to trouble me on purpose?"

"No, it has nothing to do with Caesar Group, or the Secret Art of Numbers, or even Abydos."

After pressing a pitch-black bullet into the magazine, Hoshino Kotori pulled the bolt, his orange and blue eyes without any warmth, "It's just that there is still a sequelae between you and me that has not been resolved."

"There's still a sequelae between me and you?"
