The Little Prince in the Ossuary

# Fire, Fort Roberts (2)

The regimental commander said.

“It's a little awkward to talk now.... Last mission, that was a lot of work. You fought well against those lunatics. ”

“It was unfortunate. ”

A young officer, Captain Laplin, smiles faintly.

“Excellent answer. Yeah, you're right. But it could have been more unfortunate. The baby doesn't see the light of the world, the scoundrels kill the patriots, this country loses you.... Who would have thought something like this would happen? ”

The hidden battalion commander gives his place to winter.

“Have a seat. I didn't call it a quick story. ”

“Yes.”

As I fill the void, the window flashes as I sit down. The glass shakes a few seconds later. Although the hurricane entered the Nile, occasionally thunder struck from afar. The sky outside the window was still thick, so I couldn't see my embarrassment. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before it rained again.

The battalion commander brings good luck.

“I'm going to ask you straight away. Aren't you scared? ”

“ ……. ”

Unfortunately, that's the question I heard on the way here. The girl's voice overlaps, and winter falls momentarily. The regiment leader was enough to misunderstand. Black colonel nods.

“Of course. I've reviewed your battle records. You almost died. ”

“It was an accident. ”

“You have to be lucky on the battlefield. It's important to accept bad luck to be a good soldier. Especially after all this time. Admit it. You can die at any time. ”

I don't think he's just saying that. Winter was curious. Does it have anything to do with what you called me today?

“Speaking of.... ”

It was relevant

“Lieutenant, do you mind stepping down from the line? ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Literally, you don't have to take any more risks if you want to. ”

The colonel pulls out the two formats and places them side by side on the table.

“You deserve a choice. Even though you're young, you've already shown courage and commitment that other people can't give for their whole lives. The Medal of Honor is proof of that. Of course, I'm not asking you to leave the army. That means there's a way to help people without having to fight. ”

“I'm sorry, but I don't want to put my gun down yet. ”

“First you look at these and then you say, It'll be worth reviewing. ”

While guessing the content, winter is based on the recommendation of the battalion commander. One was a false positive and the other was a request form for transfer to a unit. The latter unit name was impressive.

"Civil War Tactical Support Group"? ’

Changes to affiliated units are generally made in accordance with personnel orders within the military. However, a small number of special forces recruited members through volunteer screening. Winter was well aware of the troops belonging to the latter, but I had never heard of the names of the troops in the document. It seemed to be a random contextual value unique to this world view.

‘Since you said you have the right to choose, does that mean I should choose one of the two? ’

In fact, the position of the postmark was also unfamiliar. Either way, we don't have enough information.

The regimental commander naturally followed his gaze out of the document.

“I'll explain one by one. First of all, this is a mandate from the military audit committee to be made shortly. ”

“Military office?”

“Well, the Central California Refugee Service, to be exact. In the future, we will be formulating more military-based refugee management. To be honest, the administrators so far have been outnumbered. ”

The regimental commander hesitates a little more.

“Actually, it's not just that.... Looks like they care about the public opinion up there. ”

“I'd appreciate it if you could elaborate. ”

“In short, the presidential election is approaching. Political strife happens in situations like this. It's useless... Problematic opinions first have a friendly side to refugees. I am strongly criticizing the government's policy to use refugees as military resources. They're abusing the refugees. ”

“Is that the story of the American people trying to make the ultimate sacrifice? ”

“Precisely. Morally unethical. It seems to have a certain belief in the superiority of this country, but this is my point of view, so you'll have to filter it out. ”

The commander said it was his view, but it was a reasonable insight for winter to see. They are here to ask for help, so I protect them. America is a great country. Though not all of them felt this way, some were more likely to be mild. Winter is flat.

“Partially correct, but I find it hard to agree. I think it's time for everyone to do their best to survive. I don't think it's necessary to distinguish between refugees and American citizens. ”

“I think so, too. We all have to fight together someday. It's a war of honor for mankind. What does order matter? The people in the back and the people up there don't know the scene very well. Actually, this may seem a little bit relevant to me, Hmm, a little? A little bit, don't you think? ”

Colonel Laplin advises in a self-centered manner. It was a farce, not an act.

Winter asks.

“But, Commander, Let me ask you one question. I don't really understand... Is the presidential election still in order? ”

“This country was elected during the Civil War. Of course, this could be a much bigger crisis, but the opposition's position is that there's no reason to hold elections since we're holding them off for close to a year. citizens' opinions. Everyone seems to have a lot of complaints after such a difficult time. They say you need an election to avoid that. I don't know, maybe the President wanted to hit him because he was tired, too? Oh, last one's a joke. ”

When I said this, the colonel didn't look right.

“Soldiers are not supposed to care about politics. Anyway, there's not a lot of interest in your opinion. If you treat refugees badly, you should have picked up a weapon at your age. ”

“It's not very nice. ”

“Of course. There are so many different people in the world..." The other opinions in question won't be any sweeter. These are the lunatics who want to banish the refugees at all costs. People who are swept away by false rumors. ”

“Rumors?”

“Yes, gossip. There are many things, but the worst of them are rumors of refugees spreading disease. Since the last cryptic announcement at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of people I trust has skyrocketed. ”

“Don't they particularly hate the Chinese? ”

“Well, yeah. Looks like you heard something, too. Or guess what? ”

“Both. ”

Winter reminded me of Rieling. When she captured the small town north of the base, she told the world. I'm afraid the Chinese will be sacrificed to suppress their complaints.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggested that the plague may be a biostage. Weapons made by China, failed to manage by China. This was to be the mantle of the blind. Not to mention the possibility that China was the first victim.

You unravel the rest of Colonel Laplin's words.

“Even if you're not Chinese, the fear of refugees is spreading. I don't like people trying to cross the border into Mexico, I don't like people trying to illegally land on the East Coast. According to the increasing incidents of small-scale infections in the eastern region, even extremists are encouraged to shoot everyone. Mainly in the South. That's only part of it, but I don't like the idea of them growing. But the politicians still care. ”

“Either way, they're negative for building a military commission. That's why you need me. ”

“I can't help it. People who like you are everywhere. I think this case with Captain Harris is going to increase a bit. No, can it get any bigger? Even the little red necks won't say no to you. ”

“Has the case finally been decided to go public? ”

“I'm almost certain. You must have calculated the profit and loss from the top. After reviewing the battle records, I felt it would be better for me to disclose myself as well. The case itself is very sensitive and negative, but it's very dramatic, depending on how diverse it is. ”

It took the Colonel a while to choose his next words. I felt like I was wandering around because I had so much to say.

“That's a lot of impressive stuff. Starting with your warning about Captain Harris, you were brilliant when you left, despite being a mathematical teenager. It was a good decision if you were confident enough to succeed in capturing the enemy's side of the separation. As a result, it was the right decision. I heard it was Commander Captain Captain Captain Three who was in charge of your education. Did you learn that from him? ”

It was a brief passage through the journal for winter. When I see augmented reality rising with intellectual correction, winter calmly replies.

“Yes. I heard there were officers or deputies acting like me in Iraq. ”

“The commander taught you well. Yeah, there were brave people like that. But in a good way or a bad way, it was never about you. The boundary between confidence and recklessness is so ambiguous.... ”

“I'm sorry."

“No, there's something else to be sorry about. Anyway, it was like watching a movie in a lot of ways. The part where you catch the trickster with the trap, or the part where you're buried alive. The same is true of mutants that run on water. First of all, after a long night, I was moved when the baby was born. The Ministry of Defense wants to say a few words. But.”

The purpose of the emphasis was to stop talking once.

“Even though everything is a movie, your life is not a movie. You can't film it again. You can't roll it back. Looks like you almost died this time and you're talking too much upstairs. Would you like me to check on your doctor? ”

The battalion commander commands once again.

“Take it seriously. A hero's tale that ends in death is a tragedy for people. ”

Winter made a good smile.

“Respecting my doctor upstairs is because either side has its benefits, right? ”

“That's a new one.”

“Then my answer is the same. I still want to fight. ”

The colonel shrugs.

“Are you resolved.... I had a feeling this was gonna happen from the start. There's no point in recommending this. It's an order from the Commander, so take a look. ”

He taps the remaining piece of habitat. Winter asks.

“What does this Civil War Tactical Support Group do? I've never heard of it.”

“It's new this time. I have no choice. I'm with the Special Warfare Command, and I'm told only the most dangerous missions are dealt with externally. On the contrary, in fact. ”

“It's for promotional purposes.”

“It's not that we don't fight. It's just that in a safe environment, we take loyalty to our patrons and carry out our mission. Of course, it's natural for the public relations filming team to follow you 24/7. You'll get to meet more civil war officer groups and politicians than your colleagues. ”

“I don't want to.”

“I haven't thought about it for a while. Sergeant O'Connell said he was coming in. ”

“Who is that? ”

“Don't you know? You've caught three Grumbles and earned a duplicate of the Silver Star. It was in the recruitment commercial.It looked like some weird son of a bitch was driving. ”

“Ah.”

More ammo and more assholes. I thought I knew who winter was.

Winter is unique in this world view, but there are no other war heroes. And that's what they're saying on TV.
