I really can't control myself.

Chapter 4110 Hijacking
"Is this also a mode of transportation?" Zong Yang asked, pointing to the helicopter.

“That’s right, it’s a helicopter, a type of vehicle that can fly,” Izumi Nagayoshi explained from the side.

He wasn't surprised, because Zong Yang had asked the same question curiously when he got into the car. Clearly, Zong Yang didn't recognize a car, much less a helicopter.

The conversation between the two relieved the tense people around them, since Zong Yang's sudden stop made them think he had discovered something.

The only one who didn't react much was, of course, Takaoka Yūnori. This was clearly not the first time he'd experienced something like this.

Time was limited, and he couldn't possibly explain everything that happened in the simulation to these people, so Shimizu Ritsu and the others were genuinely nervous.

Because Takaoka Yusuke had already explained the situation to them beforehand, that his simulation and reality were not 100% identical. The most important issue was the ten minutes the simulation took; the start time of his simulation was different from the start time of the actual execution, so he had only encountered the butterfly effect once in his life.

Hearing this made the others quite anxious, fearing that something might not match up.

Fortunately, this wasn't an accident. Zong Yang was clearly not paying attention to them, but rather more interested in the flying vehicle. After Quan Yongjin finished his introduction, he excitedly boarded the plane.

His two subordinates naturally followed. Izumi Nagachi, on the other hand, was also about to follow, but suddenly looked strangely at the guard beside him.

He was looking at Shimizu Mai, because he was a little surprised at the moment. He hadn't noticed before that there were female members in this guard team.

Yes, although headquarters sent many squads to provide support, the most elite squads were naturally the ones primarily responsible for protection.

The squad leader had greeted him, since he was the overall person in charge of the mission. However, he knew absolutely nothing about the squad; he had only been assigned this mission temporarily. He seemed to have been introduced to the team members during the greeting; were there any female members among them? If so, he wouldn't have forgotten, would he?

Speaking of the squad leader, he looked at the team members wearing helmets next to him. Which one was the leader? They were all wearing helmets and goggles, so he couldn't recognize him for a moment.

However, upon hearing Zong Yang's sudden question from inside the cabin, he temporarily put aside his doubts and decided to go after Zong Yang first.

Seeing their target board the plane, Shimizu Mai and the other members of the escort team, disguised as bodyguards, quickly followed. The group soon entered the cabin and closed the door. Although there were already ten people on board, the interior was relatively spacious because it was a medium-sized military helicopter.

Once everyone had registered, the pilot, Shimizu Ritsu, immediately started the helicopter. He was so anxious that he almost forgot to follow orders, after all, he was just a pilot, not a commander.

Although he seemed somewhat anxious, no one suspected anything. Everyone assumed he had heard a clearance to take off in his headset, given that he was a pilot from the branch office. The people below, however, were given the order to depart immediately by the mission leader, Izumi Nagachi—this was the biggest drawback of this escort mission.

And so, right before everyone's eyes, a makeshift team of only six people abducted an ambassador from the demon realm from the other side of the inter-department. It must be said, this was quite a spectacular performance.

After the helicopter took off, everyone at the airport breathed a sigh of relief. Takaoka Yusuke had indeed practiced this many times and was used to it, but for the others, it was their first time facing such a situation. It felt like walking on a tightrope; one wrong step and they felt they would fall—it was all about the thrill.

"I see, it generates lift through rotation..." Zong Yang was still studying the helicopter when he pointed to the helicopter rotor outside and said.

Quan Yongjin, standing beside him, continued to explain things. He didn't need to discuss any specifics with the other party, because those matters would be handled directly by Zong Yang and the higher-ups at headquarters after they returned. He didn't have the authority to discuss anything directly with them. So, his job was simply to provide excellent hospitality and escort them to headquarters. It was best if the other party only focused on these novelties, so that he wouldn't be at a loss for words if they actually tried to discuss the meeting's content.

Indeed, besides dealing with Zong Yang, he gradually began to focus his attention on the team members next to him.

He couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. At that moment, his attention wasn't on the female team member he didn't recognize, but on Takaoka Yūnori.

Because at this moment, Takaoka Yūnori was wearing the captain's uniform, and he still had some impression of the captain, while he had not paid any attention to the other team members.

"Commander An." Taking a break, Izumi Nagayoshi addressed Takaoka Yūnori directly.

"..." Takaoka Yuzuri didn't answer directly, after all, he already knew the consequences of answering. His voice was completely different from that of the Anbu commander; speaking would immediately give him away.

Of course, not answering and revealing information are not that different. The main point is that you are already close to being exposed.

Judging by the timeline, the Osaka branch should be discovering the team members they killed soon, given the sheer number of bodies. Everyone was on duty during the security mission, but after the mission ended, a quick search will reveal that something is amiss.

"Commander An?" Quan Yongjin realized something was wrong when the other party didn't answer him. He called out again while reaching inside his clothes.

He wasn't going to draw his gun, of course; he was going to use the communicator to contact headquarters.

However, before he could act, suddenly with a "bang," Izumi Nagachi's vision went black, and he slumped back into his seat.

That's right, the female team member he had just noticed, of course, was Shimizu Mai, who directly hit him with the butt of her rifle, knocking him to the ground. He wasn't some Awakened One, just a civil official, and didn't have much fighting ability; he was taken down with just one blow.

This sudden turn of events caused the two retainers beside Zong Yang to instantly rise and look warily at the guards ahead. However, they did not launch an attack immediately, as what the humans were doing was not of much concern to them; they were following their young master's orders.

Zong Yang was naturally surprised, not knowing what had happened. But what surprised him even more was that the group didn't say they were going to attack him. Instead, one of them suddenly pulled out something that looked somewhat familiar to him.

That's right, it's the strange little thing that the person who was always following behind Linton when he came to the Demon Realm was holding.
