.I see2

Therefore.in the current US military, they’re being trained to reflexively shoot at something moving. They were trained to pull the trigger arbitrarily before they could check if it was a human

.Does that mean?

Of course.there are a lot of mistaken fires as a result. There are many cases of they mistakenly shot and killed an ally. But, that’s the policy of the US army!

Margo-san looks at Michi.

Kudou-san.I think your father told you this but.don’t ever make a careless move in front of Cesario Viola’s minions. They shoot their guns by reflex. If you shoot your bloodlust straight ahead.you can just be shot

.Yes

Michi answers.

Yoshida-kun too.don’t throw something towards the enemy. They would shoot at that moment!

Once you show a chance.they’ll shoot.

If you show a will to attack.they won’t hesitate.

This buzzer is used to curve their nature. Place it quietly on a place away from yourself in a way the enemy won’t notice

.Un

No matter how trained a human is.they will absolutely react to sudden events. That includes loud sounds and light. You can create a chance there

.I see

Got it.I will take this

I put theBuzzersin my pocket

Then.we’re going

When I say that.Nei-san who’s eating soumen.

Take care! I will be feeding Yukiyuki properly so don’t worry!

.Yukiyuki?

It’s already decided that girl is Yo-chan’s bitch! If she’s a human they could be jealous of her right?

Ah, that’s great! Mana will think of that too!

No.Mana

Yukino’s your real sister you know. Are you sure about that?

Mana will be taking care of Yukiyuki too.so take care!

.Is this okay?

.Haa

Right.if you think of her as not human, then you’d thinkwho cares!

Even Megu says that.

Ah, wait a moment!

Katsuko-nee runs holding a paper bag.

There’s a navy blue suit inside the bag.

What’s this Katsuko-nee

That would be the clothes you’re going to wear in Misuzu’s presentation today!

.Katsuko-nee

She’s been resizing this while in the middle of this business.

.Try wearing it for a bit

I try putting on the business suit.

Hmm.the length is just right. The sleeves are a bit jammed

Katsuko-nee marks it with a dress pin.

Following.I put on the pants.

I have to raise the hem for a bit.after that, there’s no problem

.Katsuko-neesan

Megu speaks to Katsuko-nee

Could you let me do it?

Katsuko-nee

Is that so.okay, that helps. Please

She smiled and handed Megu the pants

Ah, Mana wants to help out too!

Mana said that but.

Mana-chan.can you sew?

Err.I’ve sewn during our home economics class.

Mana’s in low spirits because of what Katsuko-nee said.

Mana.I will be doing it this time so watch. Next time, Mana will help out

Megu gently speaks to Mana.

Un, got it.Megu-oneechan!

Mana happily smiled.

.It’s really strange

Coming out of the school building.Michi told me.

There’s already nobody around. Most of the students have already left the school. There still some of them left but, the teachers will patrol and drive them out either way. The teachers would be coming home too then finally.the school would be unpopulated. It’ll take a bit of time I guess.

What’s strange?

I asked Michi.

The group Kuromori.Even though it’s a group of people without any blood relationship, they’re turning to a group united like afamily

Un.we are basically a group of people who lost their family so I think everyone thought that they want their ownfamily

When I answer.

Michi sends me a glance.

Yoshida.you don’t get anything.

.Eh?

Kuromori.is gathered around Yoshida. Although they’re people who originally thought aboutfamily.if it wasn’t for Yoshida, they won’t be gathered as a group in such a short time

Is that so?I just enteredKuromorirecently. Margo-san and Nei-san are already good terms with each other back then. But.Shirasaka house’s daughter, Mana-san naturally blends to the group as well. It’s not Mana-san but Mana.Mana’s Michi’sLittle sisterafter all. .You’re right

Michi’s cheeks blushed.

Before I knew it.I was also caught in the wave offamily-fication.

.We’re not forcing you. Michi, unlike us, you have both of your parents. .Yoshida Those who have their family should prioritize their own family

That’s what I think

.You’re right

Michi mutters sadly.

.Yoshida

Michi suddenly called me.

What?

.I will definitely protect Yoshida. Therefore, Yoshida, please think of surviving more than anything else.

.Michi

Yoshida is here that’s why those people are united. Yoshida right now is a person who can’t just die!

I can’t die.

.Un I won’t die right now. I have to live until I make everyone happy. Even if I die, I can’t.3

I have to live whatever happens

.Yes

Going from the backyard of the school building towards the baseball club grounds.

On the sloping ground.Kudou Detective Officeis parked. In front of the van. Kudou papa doing radio exercise alone.

Oh.what’s wrong?

Kudou-papa smiled looking at Michi and me.

Father.I’ve brought lunch

Michi said then I hand over the paper bag Katsuko-nee gave,

Hm.what’s the menu?

It’s soumen! Oh.I wanted something cold and refreshing!

Kudou-papa’s pleased.

He put the plastic container in the paper bag in the ice. I brought over the soumen for several people, omelet and salad. Michi brings a flask with cold barley tea.

Also.a message to Kudou-san

When I say that.Kudou-papa.

Get in the car.we’ll talk inside

.Err

Kudou papa covers his mouth with his hand and whispered to me.

.Do you know lipreading? If it’s here, the enemy might know what you’re talking about!

.Oh.

Doing a radio exercise in a place where the public would notice. It’s being watched by the enemy already. Rather than that.he’s purposely making the enemy’s eyes concentrate here.

Well, get in

Kudou-papa.opened the slide door of the van.

.Then. Toni-san is sleeping like a log.

Hey, Tony, wake up! It’s food! Food!

Tony-san gets up.

Fwaaii, boss!

They were observing 24 hours in turn.

Norma too, stop what you’re doing and come here. It’s food!

.Please wait a moment

Norma-san is facing a laptop in the driver’s seat.

Now then.what’s the message? Let me hear it first

Compared to yesterday.Kudou-papa seems to be a bit blunt.

Well.he’s been watching outside since last night. It can’t be helped.

Then.I’ll speak

I told him what Margo-san said.

Kuromorimembers will be escaping this school with three cars from the hidden garage for the staff at 2:15. Everyone will be on it. Nobody will remain in the school.The destination isNational theater The route heading there would be left to Kudou-san’s judgement!

Kudou-papa looks at me.

.A complete withdrawal?

Before I could annswer.Michi speaks.

Kuromoriis prepared to resolve everything by the end of today!

In short.we’ll take Cesario Viola’s head today.

.Well, that’s not a bad judgement. If you just shut yourself in here, the situation will only get worse!

Kudou-papa said.

.Is that so?

When I asked.

This is a good hideout but.you people have more people closed up in there than what’s planned, right?

True.it might be a bit too much

If you shut yourselves in there, you’d be lacking in food and daily necessities and the stress would accumulate. It can’t be helped that you aim for a shorterm decisive battle!
