Rebuild World

270 Unexpected requests

The Lattices, who were told by Sugadome that they would kill Chloe, immediately understood that there were no shards of jokes in the words and tried to move to protect the Lord. But it was already too late. At the moment when the idea came to mind, Harmers, who was supposed to be next to Sugadome until earlier, grabbed my face.

Move and I'll kill you. If you're willing to kill me, you've already killed me. I can kill you at any time. Harmers was putting that will into his hands to convey to the Lattices and make them understand that it was best not to move.

Chloe exhales loudly as if she were in a state. It was also to make room for Sugadome, but it was to calm itself down more than that.

"Dear Sugadome, How would it be better for a downhill heavy worker to get blood on the inside of the fence?"

Those who live on the inside of the fence basically have some ethics with them, even if they are not good. The realization that killing is outside the walls is one of them. Even if there is no fear of being attacked by monsters inside the fence, killing each other between residents is no different from the outside. Then there's no point living on the inside. He tends to prudently kill from such perceptions and plays a role in policing within the fence.

I don't see it as the words of the executives of the five largest companies that should serve as an example. Chloe so darkly accused him of trying to stop Sugadome from his opponent's self-esteem, etc.

However, the attitude of Sugadome did not change the shards.

"I can understand that word."

"So, then..."

"But I am still proud to say that as a downhill heavy worker I am in a position to contribute to the maintenance of order throughout the East. And I understand the dangers of the cards you have. On top of that, I am not irresponsible enough to miss anyone who suggests that so dangerous an artifact be shed to the Founding Fathers. Adding the constraint that this is the inside of the wall and that you are from Lawrence's clan doesn't explain why I can't kill you here."

That doesn't change the tone of Sugadome. I made Chloe understand correctly that it was no different from her usual business, such as killing herself, and that it was only a matter of processing like any other business.

"After I kill you, I'll keep you posted to Lyons Tail that I killed a supporter of the Foundationalists. I am not going to rub it off. If you need a will, you can contact me now. That's about it."

I don't have a laugh on Chloe's face anymore. He was desperate to devise measures to improve the situation with a rugged, hard look. I understood that there was no point in begging for my life, and I had to change my opponent's judgment with some logic, and by thinking too deeply, I even remembered the distortion (yu) of time, and I was about to see a breakthrough (yes).

But Chloe's head did not produce a valid proposal. Pinch a little time and Sugadome tells you the time is up.

"Don't you need a will? So..."

Chloe's face is very tense. Lattice and the others distorted their faces.

"... if the earlier words were misleading words that came out of your incompetence, not from your thoughts showing the Founding Fathers an understanding, you should correct them"

Chloe is surprised by the unexpected story, but as soon as she returns to me, she rides Sugadome's words.

"I would like to highlight the value of the card, but (to) take the worst case scenario as an example. I will not sit at all willing to send cards to the Founding Fathers. Correct misleading remarks and apologize."

Silence flows again. Chloe stiffens her face with excessive tension again, wondering if this was a bad idea.

And Sugadome tells him without changing his attitude or tone.

"It would be good"

Released from the tension, Chloe inadvertently exhaled her relieved (mostly) breath hard and repeated her rough breath as it was. The Lattices, whose hands were removed from Harmers, exhale as well and set their posture right somewhere. Harmers went back to normal next to Sugadome.

"Me and you are normal people who are physically incapable of fighting. But it has the power to move those with extraordinary combat abilities. If you say so, you are the one who can kill people with only his mouth. That's why be careful what you say."

"... Your advice, I accept"

Chloe managed to catch her breath and replied so briefly.

"Now, let me explain a little bit more to (to) solve the misunderstanding as well. You must have decided that I took it lightly enough to bring up a rush that doesn't make the card worthwhile, but I have no intention of doing so. I also fully understand the value of the card. I just don't feel the need to trade with Lyons Tail to get a second card."

Sugadome said so and took out the white card, the exact same one Chloe had. The look on the faces of Chloe and the others who saw it fills me with surprise. And while Chloe left a surprise, she doubted the look on her face, and began not to seep (into) until confusion and confusion.

(... real? If it's real, how did you get it? Fake? If it's fake, how could you have prepared something like that? No, even if it's real, it shouldn't be a problem with two sheets. Reasons to kick transfer negotiations......)

"I can understand you suspecting this to be a fake. It's not easy to get."

"Yes, no, such..."

"Then let me show you the proof......, before I say it, I need you to wait a moment because someone wants me to meet you"

In front of Chloe, who the hell looks suspicious, Sugadome makes contact. Then a little before Chloe, Shiloh appeared over the 3D video display device in the room.

"What can I do for you by calling people to wait even though you're busy... yay!?

Shiloh, who noticed Harmers, voiced unexpectedly, and Harmers turned a vicious grin on Shiloh. Sugadome gives instructions to Shiloh, who is trying to laugh and deceive him.

"Shiloh. You'll know about her. I know you annoyed her the other day. [M] Apologize."

"Did you call me to do that? Oh, no, I'm sorry."

Shiloh looked strange, but he hastily apologized to Chloe when he received a harsh gaze from Sugadome.

"... Huh? Oh, yes. Never mind."

Chloe also accepted the apology with some confusion. When Shiloh and Chloe are face-to-face confused without being able to read Sugadome's intentions, Sugadome puts the card on his desk.

"Let's get back to it. Show proof this card is real"

The next moment, Olivia appeared beside Shiloh. I contacted Olivia via a desk reader.

"I'll sit you down at Olivia's in Lyons Tail. Thank you very much for contacting us."

Olivia said so and politely thanked Sugadome before turning her gaze to Chloe. Chloe, who had been warned that there would be no next time, wandered openly. Following the warning, Chloe couldn't be sure if this would be the next time she decided not to imitate (well) to contact Olivia from herself again.

Sugadome pinches his mouth there.

"She is my guest. Never mind."

That's what Olivia was told. After staring at Chloe and the others, she returned her gaze to Sugadome. I think it helped and Chloe and the others exhale in relief (mostly).

Sugadome hands the card to Harmers with a loving smile to Olivia.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Sugadome. I'd like to talk to you about your work.

Olivia shifts her gaze to Harmers. Harmers snorted firmly with the intention that there would be no problem. Then move your gaze to Shiloh. Shiloh shook his head sideways in the sense that he hadn't called. On top of that, Olivia returns her gaze to Sugadome and smiles lovingly (cheeks).

"Of course I'll sit down."

"That was good. Now let's go into the details. Oh, excuse me, before..."

Sugadome tells her gaze at Chloe.

"I'm sorry, but that's it for you guys. Please pick it up."

Chloe's face only gets tense for a moment. I had a strong dissatisfaction with the situation of being evicted after being given even very interesting information: calling Shiloh, calling Olivia and negotiating something on it, but I also understood that I could not refuse.

"... awe. Now if you'll excuse me."

Carefully bowing his head to Sugadome, Chloe left the room with the Lattices.

Chloe and the others were taken outside the management area of downhill heavy industry by officials of the same guide as when they went. In the meantime, Chloe had repeatedly recalled what had happened in Sugadome's room.

(... I don't know. It must have definitely meant something to call Olivia out in front of me... A message to Lyons Tail that Sakashita Heavy Industries can also make contact with Master Olivia? That's all? That's what I have to tell you? Seems different......)

Chloe had the perplexity in her chest on her face, worried about her troubles and not even coming up with a degree of prediction that even if she lays assumptions on her assumptions, or (some) yes, possibly. There was even a slight rush.

(It was not possible to pass the card to downhill heavy industry. This is why I went to the bargain at my own risk. You're not that good.

As I walk in my thoughts, I can speak to the officials.

"Dear Chloe. I'll sit you down."

"Huh?... Yes. Thank you. Thank you."

We're almost there to rendezvous with Udajima. Chloe was a little surprised that it was already a distance she could go by herself, but it was usually a guide that far, something that would stop the lead at a very halfway point. But the opponent is an employee of Sakashita Heavy Industries, even though he is a guide. I smiled and thanked him that there should be no disrespect.

The official tells Chloe.

"We have deposited the words from Sugadome to Lord Chloe"

Chloe was surprised and snorted at what she was going to tell her even though she had just broken up earlier.

"I'll ask."

"I take it personally to make the noise louder, but I don't recommend involving the downhill heavy worker in the noise. It is highly discouraged to involve the ruins of Kuzsuhara Street. I'm sure you'll clean up the noise, but let her know if you can't clean it up later. That's it."

Chloe, who understood Sugadome's intentions after listening to the statement, solidified with extra consternation. Lattice and the others panicked about how Chloe was doing, but they couldn't react to it either.

"Dear Chloe. Would you like to sit down if Sugadome told you?

"... thank you for your advice, just tell me"

"I'm scared. Now, if you'll excuse me."

When the official told him so and bowed his head, he returned without any particular haste.

The incredible shock, and the slight relief (mostly) that came from the fact that the staff walked away and left the body alone, caused Chloe to fade away from the remaining fallout. Pamela rushes to support Chloe as she falls.

"Lady!?

"... was being read.... it was all read.... I also called Olivia in front of me (to confirm)... That's..."

I didn't receive the card because I didn't let the downhill heavy worker get into the noise (to). I let Olivia meet me to see if I was really silent about this noise (to). Awareness creates further surprise and turns into fear that it was being read so far.

After that, Chloe, who managed to recover from the shock, proceeded somewhere and joined Udajima again. Udajima cares about Chloe, who also looks cruel and tired.

"I don't seem to be feeling well, but what happened?

"... you negotiated with the executives of the downhill heavy industry? I'm tired."

"Right. Then you should go back to your room and rest. I'll get the details later."

"I'm sorry, but I'll let you."

After Chloe said that, she saw Udajima and showed how she noticed something. Udajima realizes that too.

"What's up?

"... nothing. I'm sorry, but I'm really tired. If it's not urgent, give me a break."

Chloe leaves that behind and puts Udajima back in the room, which is a place of house arrest. Along the way, Chloe was making her face even more rugged.

(Though we got the branch manager's connections, we should have suspected the back when someone who was being pushed into a secluded position in Kugamayama City established a glimpse with the executives of the downhill heavy industry. What I did came to mind was unexpectedly good at what I asked for. And I overestimated Conne's power at the Eastern 3rd Ward branch of Lyons Tail. So I haven't...)

Chloe's negotiations with Sugadome ended in failure and failure on the initial evaluation criteria. But there was no later position. If this does not end, Chloe rethinks and re-determines this from a variety of perspectives in order to build it up even more as a strange currency. And notice.

(Sugadome had guessed my thoughts correctly. On top of that, we left a statement that could be interpreted as acceptable if we did not involve ourselves. I can also say that this took the toleration of downhill heavy industry. Master Olivia didn't kill me either. This can also be interpreted as tolerable. This should be proof that there was no mistake in Master Alice's intentions that I guessed.... Let's just say it's nice to be able to confirm that. The Branch Managers should follow me now...)

This bet is ruined whether you go down or lose. Then we have to win. I haven't lost yet. It's not over yet. That's what Chloe wants and tells herself.

"That's right..., you win! Whatever you do!

Chloe laughs. Once again, he removed his own shackles and placed a new odd coin in his own interpretation from this case on the wager.

After Chloe and the others left Sugadome's room, Shiloh spotted the situation even more surprisingly, pointing his suspicious face at Sugadome.

"Hey, did you call me to apologize to him? Then can I go home now? I'm busy."

"No. If you go home on your own, you will see that you have clearly escaped from the hillside."

"What can I do for you... Get this over with."

"Then let's do it."

Sugadome laughs lovingly at Olivia.

"Mr. Olivia. I would like to ask you to escort him. Can you please?

"What?"

Sugadome turns a serious face to Shiloh, who spoke out unexpectedly and lightly.

"You used to complain about your own candidacy for escort, but if it was her, it wouldn't be a problem. At any rate, you hired one yourself. I won't let you complain."

There is a slight rush on Shiloh's face.

"No, that's a little, you know, I don't have any more money to hire her."

"Don't worry. I'll pay for it here in full. So, Mr. Olivia. Is his escort possible?

"We'll take care of this right away, as long as we get your consent from the person being escorted."

"That's as reliable as you can count on. Then Mr. Shiloh. Tell Olivia I said yes."

Shiloh closed his mouth without distorting his face in a hurry.

"I'll tell him first. Regardless of your progress, if you do not return within a month, we will send a collection unit to determine that you have the will to evacuate to another company. But if it was accompanied by an escort at that time, it would appear to have been returned."

A further impatience is added to Shiloh's face, who is told of the specific time remaining.

"Periodic reporting is also waived if you are to be escorted. You can report it in a month. Let's also stop Harmers from looking for you. If she's attached to the escort, no problem. Let's loosen the work deadline, too. One month left, enough sightseeing before you get started."

Harmers looked slightly disgusted. But that face was also overridden by a surprising look at Shiloh, who was even showing excessive tremors of nervousness even when he was offered such favorable conditions.

Shiloh keeps silent. Sugadome tells his face slightly more harshly.

"Warn. More silence is disloyalty to downhill heavy industry. Answer me."

Shiloh had been cornered. But I made up my mind. He opens his mouth slowly and squeezes out his voice, not even saying it's hard to open it.

"The escort..."

Answer with a slight grin on the face that is distorted by tremors.

"... say no"

Harmers' face, stunned and distorted, showed how unlikely it was to be.

Sugadome stares at Shiloh. Shiloh solidified as if he had been sentenced to death, but still stared back.

"... well"

Out of Sugadome's mouth, only those words shook Shiloh loudly, and even Harmers bared.

He then eases his attitude so that Sugadome can shed tension on the ground and bows his head to Olivia in a way that seems sorry.

"Mr. Olivia. I'm sorry, sir. I'm afraid this one called me because he says he really doesn't like it, but can't we take another opportunity to make a request?

"Never mind. Feel free to call me again. We look forward to your use."

Olivia laughed and answered that without showing how she cared at all, carefully bowing her head and disappearing.

Sugadome who sees it disappears his affection and tells Shiloh.

"You should go home. [M] Don't forget to report regularly."

I bow my head in the way Shiloh follows me. And he cut the line as it was, disappearing.

Harmers kept his confusion on his face, wondering if it was a good idea to ask Sugadome for more information about the circumstances. And when that stray leads to the decision to just ask, I can call the other way around.

"Modify the instructions to you. As always, Shiloh, continue your search, but if you discover it, be sure to contact me and ask for instructions before you actually move on to securing it. If you don't hear from me, Shiloh, I forbid you to give me a hand unless it's a life-threatening situation. That's it. Take your seats off."

Asking extras is not a good idea. Harmers reconsidered that from the look of Sugadome and withdrew silently and gratuitously.

After that, Sugadome, who was left alone in the room, continued to think with a slightly harsh look.

Shiloh, who cut communication with Sugadome, is repeatedly breathing rough in his lair. The face is very dangerous.

"... not good, not good"

It's also a tough matter that they've decided on the exact time remaining, except for the concerns that were holding Shiloh back more than that.

"Maybe you found out...?

Shiloh shakes his neck wide and sideways so that he is forced to (do) shake off the unexpected anxiety he has spoken.

"... No, if you find out, you should immediately move into my custody. So that should be my suggestion. That sugadome attitude should be a dissatisfaction with the weird mean kid. I'm just trying to figure out what sanctions would be right for a fool who cared less about his executives. They're not supposed to be here..."

While understanding that the desire to be so may be mixed, Shiloh now dared (ah) to strengthen his optimism in order (to) not despair.

"... let's hurry. Can it be shaped?"

If you do poorly, you threaten to turn the downhill heavy industry into a full-fledged enemy. But you can't choose the means for fear of it. The hunted Shiloh decided so and moved out ready (to) take a more critical approach.

Sugadome, who was alone in his room in his thoughts, breathed out loudly to draw conclusions.

"I kicked that condition. It would still be good to consider it almost definitive. At least enough reason to be prepared"

Conclude with your mouth, and gently snort after reconfirming what you inferred yourself.

Tourism. Tourist destinations. Ruins. Ruins tour. Probably an undiscovered ruin because it wasn't hooked up to a net stretched on a known ruin. I haven't found it because it's not appropriate. Refusing to escort is to prevent information from being compromised. Even if Olivia forsakes the benefits of escorting and exempting her from regular reporting, it is not a good idea for downhill heavy industry to know. Something that meets those associations.

Sugadome, who draws that conclusion and has completed the reassertion of validity, contacts the headquarters of Sakashita Heavy Industries.

"... Yep.... Yes. Yes, just in case....... only a concern. There's no need to prioritize, but adjust with a good deal of priority.... Yes, in some cases I would like you to send troops from HQ.... No, that depends on the findings. The first thing I want you to do is send in personnel for the investigation. Even if the result ends in concern, the army will have no problem preparing for the ruins of Kuzhara Street."

Sugadome, who talks to the head office, tells the story with a serious face.

"We would now like to request personnel for the anti-rebuild agency. Bye."

Sugadome, who hung up the call, exhales loudly.

"It would be nice if you were worried."

The face was so rugged that it could not be shown to his men.

Akira, who continues her bounty neck life, received a connection code to the secret line again via Hunter Cord. Akira, who confirmed the source of the notification, became more confused than surprised, but was interested in connecting Kibayashi's advice not to kick the negotiations cheaply with communications from unexpected people. And I was actually supposed to meet and talk to them.

Akira was going to go alone on the bike, but when she told Carol about it, she was returned when she accompanied her.

"I'm afraid of traps, and I think Carol would be safer off staying here?

"No, you can't. What do you do when an escort leaves the escort? Besides, you said I'd fight with you if anything happened, right?

To Carol, who says so and laughs as she deserves, Akira also laughs lightly and returns it.

"Right. Then get ready and go."

Akira started getting ready with Carol in a good mood somewhere.

In a place in the wilderness, a man in his back got out of the vehicle and was waiting for Akira's arrival. On the side of the man (by the side) stands a man in butler's clothes and a woman in maid's clothes to refrain.

Confirm the time so that the man with the back can be surprised.

"It's time..."

Normally it is not acceptable to delay the negotiation time after making the negotiating place a dangerous wilderness. No wonder they decided to lick the other guy and kick him in the bargain.

But Akira is a bounty neck. The circumstances of being attacked by hunters are also well considered. And given the fear that we might be mistaken for luring Akira into a close-in trap, it was premature to leave.

How long should we wait after time? I notice a motorcycle coming from the back of my sight when a man starts to devise it and relieves me (mostly) when I get here properly. But the person driving the bike was a woman, and he looked surprised when he saw that no one else was riding.

The motorcycle stops at the side (by the side) of the man and the carol that was driving descends.

"You're Akira's negotiator?

"Yes, but who is he? You're a guide, and you need to move? Then I'd like you to come a little sooner."

It is not uncommon to dynamically change the negotiating location for fear of enemy attacks. The man showed an understanding of it, but zeroed (spilled) his dissatisfaction thinking that he did not consider its travel time.

Akira's voice echoes there.

"No, I'll do it here"

Akira comes out from behind Carol. He was hiding using the camouflage feature of the protective coat of fortified clothing.

Even using camouflage functionality has limits to concealment if powerful information-gathering equipment is used. The men were actually wary of their surroundings using very high-performance information-gathering equipment, and Akira's presence would have been exposed if it had been normal.

However, the camo function makes it relatively easy to make it difficult to have someone, to have no one, to not know how many people, to not know who, to make it about. Akira had misled her signs into Carol by means of a camouflage feature supported by Alpha.

That surprises the men who didn't realize Akira existed. Especially the butler and maid here as a man's escort were dewning their surprises. But the man was a little surprised.

"Above all on time. I told him on the previous call, but let's introduce ourselves again. I'm Flip Covette Lawrence, Branch Manager of the Eastern Fourth Ward of Lyons Tail. It's a good day."

"It's Akira."

Akira and the others get down to business after introducing themselves, which varies considerably in the number of characters that represent themselves.

"Well, let's start by communicating our position. The Eastern Fourth Ward branch of Lyons Tail is not willing to be hostile to you. I want to build on this premise."

Show how Akira is obviously surprised.

"Lyons Taylor put a bounty on me?

"That's the first misunderstanding there. It was the 3rd Ward branch that made you the prize neck, not our 4th Ward branch. And what you're hostile to is the Eastern District III branch of Lions Tail, not the Lions Tail Corporation. This is important."

Each branch of Lyons Tail works together under its Eastern Head Office to build a huge organization called Lyons Tail. But each branch is like a competitor doing business in its own region. We cooperate, but we rebel. They also engage in intense (frequent) commercial warfare with other branches in adjacent areas around their jurisdictions.

Unless Akira is hostile to the Eastern Head Office, which can also be described as Lyons Tail itself, but unless it is, it is a branch-scale rub. In order not to increase the scope of hostile groups in a meaningless way, it is better to make a good division there. Akira listened to those explanations surprisingly and intriguingly.

"Adding that you think of the Sanqu branch as an enemy, but it's also a quick call to make that determination. Sure, it was the 3rd Ward branch that hung the prize money on you, but it was someone named Chloe who actually did it. At the direction of the manager of the Sanqu branch, it did not move across the branch. According to the information I received, the District III branch had a move to see Chloe's behavior as problematic and punishing."

Akira is surprised to hear unexpected things.

"Really?

"That's right. I just haven't gotten any information that the punishment has actually gone down. I guess the inside of the San-ku branch is rubbing it because of how it handles this time."

Flip sees how Akira is, and confirms that the part of us that was alerting ourselves because we were related to Lyons Tail has faded considerably, he tries to move on.

"Now, if you've convinced me that we're not enemies, I want to get down to business. Do you mind?

"Well, okay."

Akira didn't entirely believe the Flip story either. But there was no stronger distrust than not listening to the shards or the unbelievable. Flip figured it out, too, and gets to the point.

"Then I'd like to ask you. Is it possible to ask you to kill Chloe Leverant Lawrence?

When I spoke on the vehicle's secret line, I had been thinking a lot in advance about what Akira would be talking about since she told me that she wanted to meet and negotiate directly because it was very important. But this was unexpected on the boulder.
