Ee, Teni Shippai? Seikou?

"Well done! I'll be on my way, keep it protected!!

Ed took me through the conversation, and Yang Yi and I boarded a plane to South America right after that.

It's a private jet, and we're going to land directly in the neighborhood.

And not long after the plane took off, Ed's smartphone rang.

I suppose they also use frequencies that do not affect the instrument. He answered the phone without worrying.

"Looks like we got Charlotte safe."

That's what Ed told Yang Yi, who finished the call.

"There are collaborators over there. Thank you, Mr. Fujido."

"No......"

Yaichi told Charlotte's current location to Ed, who had managed to make a leap to get that collaborator over there to protect Charlotte.

As a result, he discovered and protected Charlotte, who was sitting in an alley.

So far there has been no pursuit from Ed as to how Yaichi identified her position.

"Good......"

Minori, having heard Ed's report, rejoiced in tears.

Now that I'm full of heads about Charlotte, I seem to have decided not to worry about Fumiya for a moment.

The other women were relieved, but only Yangichi had a harsh look on her face.

"Lord Yoichi, what's wrong?

"No, yeah...... well"

Yaichi answers ambiguously to Alana's query wondering how it was going.

Seeing that, Alana lowered her brow and smiled bitterly.

"Well, talk to me when you calm down"

Yaichi has been [appraising] Charlotte ever since he heard about Ed.

So I also knew that she was in crisis and that she managed to take it off and lurk in the alley.

And I knew before Ed about being protected by passing on location information.

I guess I've learned something bothers me about that Yaichi not breaking his expression when he gets the news of Charlotte's rescue.

"Oh yeah... sorry..."

Yaichi looks at Ed after giving that back to Alana for caring about her own mood.

"Um, Mr. Ed. Who's the collaborator?

"There's an organization we support. Simply put, the resistance to Ola Taggigo."

"Is it the one called Resistance?

Hearing Ed's answer, Yaichi tilts his neck with a rugged look.

"What, you don't have to worry about them. They're trustworthy. At least it's the safest place in that town."

Did Yaichi feel suspicious about the resistance, Ed said so to reassure him and his peers.

"No... the... well, I guess... then I'm relieved"

Yangichi's concerns were elsewhere, but he thought it would make no sense to repeat any more questions on this occasion, and showed a convincing glimpse of Ed's words, defeating the reclining of the seat and depositing himself.

The non-Alana women had also noticed that Yangichi was looking strange up here, but he didn't seem to be going to pursue it here any more than he would say.

(Anyway, since you went to the local and met him (...) woman (...))

So rethinking, Yaichi slowly closed her eyes and exhaled deeply, deciding to sleep until she arrived.

A few hours later, Yang Yi arrived at the airport and switched to Ed's prepared automobile.

Cross the border and enter the Republic of Nerexistas by road.

Sometimes it came from a neighboring country that is a friendly country, and I was able to enter without any problems just checking my brief ID.

He left the airport and arrived in the Republic capital in about an hour, and in another half an hour or so he arrived at a slightly older apartment.

"Here."

When Ed followed him into the entrance, there were a few young people there.

"No, old man! Happy?"

"Oh, thanks to you"

Ed carelessly returns to the young man who calls out to him.

"Hmm..."

Alana leaked her voice quietly.

Starting with the young people who had spoken up, the young people present here seemed to be full of them, but in her eyes they had some sort of combat training and reflected themselves as if they were alert.

Yaichi somehow noticed that.

Apparently, this whole building is the stronghold of the resistance.

Ed walked without hesitation and stood in front of a certain room up some stairs.

"It's me"

After the knock, call.

"Yes, sir."

After hearing a young woman, she is unlocked and the door is opened.

"Hey, long time no see"

It was a young woman who welcomed Ed in.

The brown-skinned girl, still unobtrusive, with her crusty black hair bound behind her, smiles when she sees Ed.

The girl was dressed as Cullot on a t-shirt.

The brown hands and feet peeking through the sleeves of the T-shirt and the hem of the culot are as bright as they are young.

My growing chest was pushing up a slightly larger T-shirt.

"Well done, amie"

"Eh heh."

After Ed stroked his head, his eyes narrowed and he rejoiced, the girl, called Ami, soon realizes the presence of Yang Yi.

"Hmm? Who are you?"

"Oh, they're my people"

"Hmmm......"

All the members of Tokoroten, with their alert eyes on them, opened their eyes.

"What do you want? Is there something on Atai's face?"

"Amanda......?

Minori squeaks unexpectedly.

Ami's voice, manner of speaking, and appearance looked just like Amanda the Demon.

"How do you know Atai's name? Oh, maybe you asked the old man?

And apparently it's the same to the name.

Ami seems to be a nickname.

"No, I'm not talking... well, that's about as easy as he'd look up"

The women who heard Ed's words all set their sights on Yangichi.

And Yaichi, alone, sighed.

"It's like that."

Yaichi knew about her by [appraisal +], but had not told the women.

He couldn't believe the results of his own appraisal and didn't feel like talking until he saw him.

Her name was accidentally leaked from Minori's mouth only because Ami looked like Amanda the Demon.

"Whatever. You mean Atai and the others, right?

I could only return an indescribable vague reaction from members of Tokoroten, starting with Yaichi, to Ami, who said so and had a pleasant grin.

○ ● ○ ●

"Atai is Amanda Suzano. I want you to call me Ami. As you know, Carlo Suzano of Ola Taggigo is a fucking asshole in Atai..."

At the time Ami named the Susano surname, the women frowned at it and all saw Yaichi at the same time as they called Carlo a jerk.

"... does that feel like I didn't know Atai's identity?

The questionable gaze from the women and the confused look on Ami's face, Yaichi sighed lightly.

"No, I knew... I just couldn't believe it. I've been trying to make a lot of decisions since I met you, and I kept my mouth shut to everyone."

Minori and Alana seemed convinced once by the words, but Sheehan turned his gaze slightly to blame. With a bitter smile, though.

"Ha ha, you are. Anyway, Atai gathers people who can't keep up with the way he does, and he feels like he's resisting."

Then Yang Yi also gave a brief introduction.

"And you guys, you look Asian, but maybe you look Japanese?

"Oh. Almost."

"Ah, that silver-haired guy over there isn't Asian...... whoa, your sister looks so beautiful!

"Heh heh, yeah? Thanks."

"Haha, you have no idea what you're talking about"

Thanks to the magic props, Alana can understand Ami's words, but Ami can't understand Alana's words.

"Uh, Mr. Fujido. I've been wondering, which one of these women are you from?

Apparently, Ed, too, was concerned about Alana's identity.

"Eh, I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't listen to that..."

"Mm, well. If that's the case, I can't help it."

"People have their own circumstances, don't they? Even so, your brother talks so normally."

"Indeed, Mr. Fujido is fluent in English, but he also speaks these words in a native way."

"Uh, I don't know, I'm good at language, me"

All thanks to [language understanding +].

"Amy, I'm sorry, but can you show me to Charlotte?

Where the introduction came in a paragraph, Ed cut it out.

"Sure. Over here."

The back door opened as Ami tried to guide her, and a slightly older woman came out.

"Oh, you're a customer?

"Ah, auntie. How's that sister doing?

Apparently, this woman was taking care of Charlotte.

"I just woke up."

That's the woman I said it to, but the look on her face is a little harsh.

"It's just that the fever doesn't go down... I hope you don't have a nasty infection."

"Infection...!

Ed groans small.

"Oh my goodness... The antibiotics are cut right now."

"Even if I get a new one, they're holding me back around."

The medicines are bulldozed by Ora Taggigogo, and the essentials around them seem to rely on Ed's support.

"You don't have it, do you?

"I don't have it, but if you go to the safe house..."

"Then as soon as..."

"Ugh..."

From behind the room, I heard a groan.

"Shirley!?

Unexpectedly, Minori screams.

"Sister... honey...?

"Shirley!"

Minori ran into the back room, calling her name again.

Ed and Ami and Yang Yi follow suit.

"Shirley... Shirley...!

When Yaichi entered the room, Minori was kneeling by the bed, taking Charlotte's hand.

"Sister... I'm sorry... I screwed up..."

"Yeah, it's me who's sorry......! I couldn't ask Shirley..."

"Sister, it's not bad... Shirley just failed..."

"It's not bad... Shirley's not bad at all...! Good, you're back safe..."

Minori put Charlotte's hand, covered with both hands, on her forehead and continued to pour and weep.

Was Charlotte feverish, her cheeks red and her eyes vain, as the older woman put it?

Yaichi and Ed stood side by side ahead of her gaze of such a blurred focus.

They both look worried, staring at Charlotte.

"Charlotte......!

Her mouth moved as Ed tried to walk over.

"Yoichi......"

Ed didn't think, he saw Yaichi.

"Yoichi... Yoichi...!

Charlotte calls out his name as she seeks, stretching her free hand to Yangichi.

When he glanced at Ed, he nodded small at Yangichi with a bitter expression.

"Charlotte......"

Yaichi walked over to the bed calling her name and took an outstretched hand.

"Please... Yoichi..."

To Charlotte's crap, Minori let go of her hand and leaves the bed.

Charlotte turned her other hand to Yangichi's neck.

"Right now... do...?

To the words, the indoors snap for a moment.

"Hey, Charlotte, what are you--"

Alana stands in front of Ed trying to rush over.

The members of Tokoroten were also surprised for a moment by Charlotte's words, but they were quickly regaining their composure as to whether they had guessed her intentions.

"I'm sorry, but it's been two hours since we got here. Ladies and gentlemen, please leave the room."

That was Sheehan. I guess the tone is different because I'm speaking these words.

"Hey, what are you talking about! That sister, she was in pretty bad shape, wasn't she?

"Ami's right! Anyway, we need to focus on treatment."

Ed manages to get to Charlotte, but Alana prevents him from moving.

To himself, to a considerable strength alone, he seemed incapable of forbidding surprises.

"Excuse me, Mr. Ed. Can't you let Yaichi take care of this place?

That's what Minori offered Ed.

With Minori and Alana's straight eyes on him, Ed barely looked.

Charlotte has a swinging look on her bed. The look on Yangichi's face at her could not be dismissed.

"Phew..."

Ed sighed like he'd given up.

"If anything happens to Charlotte, it's just because of you."

"Oh man......!

That's what he said and got out of the room, and Ami followed suit.

Lord Yoichi, I'll take care of the rest.

Alana leaves the room.

Sheehan walked over to the side of the bed and placed a small plate of where he had taken it from on the sideboard.

Above, there was incense on it, and when she lit it, it began to smell sweet with smoke.

"This smoke, it has a sound insulation effect."

Apparently, that's an incense-shaped demon tool.

"I think it'll last an hour, so take your time."

Sheehan said so and tapped Yangichi's shoulder lightly, leaving the room intact.

"Regards, Yaichi, about Shirley"

At the end of the day, Minori left the room.
