But are you going to just go back in disgrace with nothing accomplished?

After a struggle between herself and others, Alu's rebellious psychology prevailed.

"No, if we give up like this, how can we realize the future blueprint we are pursuing?

"We at Convenience House 68 want to be ruthless lawless outlaws unconstrained by laws and discipline!"

Having said that, when Alu really thought about taking action against her idol, she still had a look of despair on her face.

"Oh alright, alright, Alu-chan, let's go eat first. I'm hungry, let's go get some ramen. How about Shibaguan?"

"Where else are you going?"

"It's okay, it's okay. The part-time girl doesn't start work until the afternoon. Isn't it okay if we stagger our hours?"

Yes, Alu remembered that there was a saying in the famous food club of Gehenna: "Now that things have come to this, let's eat first." Maybe after a meal, he would be able to figure it out?

In Abydos, Yayi woke up early in the classroom that had been temporarily converted into a large dormitory.

Mei's teammates eventually signed the teacher's agreement. In Eri's words, "Wouldn't it be a shame not to take up such a good opportunity?"

Mei had no objection to this. She respected everyone's ideas. After all, her title of "captain" was just forcibly appointed by Caesar. It was rather that Mei felt strange that Eri and the others still thought the girl was the captain.

Now that the agreement has been signed, Ya naturally has to fulfill his responsibilities, such as helping the teacher deal with the problem of Abydos.

After a quick wash, she changed into the clothes that Eri had taken from some unlucky bad girl, and hung Xia Lai's ID card around her neck. That was it, she was ready.

The teacher doesn't have any spare money to buy new clothes for the girls, and Mei feels embarrassed to keep wearing Ayane's school uniform, so she can only make do with this.

The citizens on the road were a little panicked at first, but they calmed down after seeing the girl's ID card. They knew that an organization called "Xialai" had recently been stationed in Abydos.

After patrolling along the route map given by Hoshino, there was nothing unusual except a few gangsters. After completing the patrol mission, Mei found a chair to sit down and think.

Kanna found an old fishing rod from somewhere and went fishing with Ayane's consent. Although she didn't know what she could catch in the few rivers in Abydos, Kanna said that the important thing was not what she caught, but to regain the feeling she had in Gehenna. Futaba said that she just hadn't fished for a long time and her hands were itching to fish.

Eri and Serika found a part-time job together. She said she felt anxious if she didn't have some money, and she seemed to really like money.

Futaba went to train with Shirako. The former discipline committee member agreed with Shirako's point of view that only by improving one's own strength can one survive better.

It's a rare day of rest, and everyone has their own things to do. The teacher still needs a few days to sort out the negative information about the Caesar Group. What can I do during this time?

Ya sat in the chair casually thinking.

[Hmm? That's...]

A pink figure turned the corner. If Ya hadn't turned her head to look in that direction, she would have ignored the figure.

"Hoshino? What is she doing here?"

The current president of Abydos was mysterious and kept his distance from her. Originally, this was Abydos's own business, and it was not easy for Mei to interfere. However, now that she was a member of Xialai, Mei's curiosity drove her to quietly follow Hoshino.

Hoshino was very vigilant. She deliberately took a very roundabout route, which almost made Mei lose her several times. Fortunately, the girl's sense of space was pretty good, and she could barely keep up with Hoshino.

After walking around several streets, Hoshino stopped in front of an office building. This should be her destination.

At this point, even a fool would know that Hoshino was hiding something from everyone. Mei discovered that the route they took deliberately avoided the patrol route given to her by Hoshino, and seeing her vigilant look around, she guessed that other people in Abydos didn't know about this either.

Mei hid on the rooftop of an abandoned shopping mall across from the office building, watching Hoshino go in. She could only stop there. Hoshino was so strong that he could tear open the hatch of a tank with his bare hands. If she followed Hoshino in, she would definitely be discovered.

But just when the girl was about to go back, Hoshino's figure quickly appeared in her sight again.

It was an office on the top floor of the office building. Through the unclosed blinds, the girl could see a black-haired man in a suit talking to Hoshino.

Wait, a black, salted egg head? It was rude, but she could forgive her for not being able to find a better description.

The man in the suit was only a silhouette, but it was the first time in his life that he had seen a person's head completely black. Hmm, maybe it wasn't a person? This was not an unusual thing in Kivotos.

In short, because the distance was too far, Mei couldn't hear their voices, and could only see that Hoshino's expression seemed very serious.

I really have to go home this time. I won’t get any more information by staying and reading.

As for why Hoshino met that black-braised egg and why he had to hide it from everyone, this is not Mei's business. She should just go back and tell the teacher and let the adults deal with adults.

Ya thought so, and the subsequent development of events seemed to urge her to do so.

"boom!"

There was a sound of explosion behind her. The girl looked back and saw thick smoke rising in the distance.

That place, if Mei remembered correctly, seemed to be Shibaguan Ramen on her patrol route!

The Story of Abydos: Chapter 16: A Gathering of Heroes

"Teacher! An explosion has been detected within a ten-kilometer radius ahead! It's very close to us!" Inside the Countermeasures Committee's activity room, Ayane, having heard the explosion, was typing away on her computer. She quickly analyzed the data from the emergency drones. "The shockwave looks like a chain reaction from a C4 bomb, not an artillery or bombing attack... Let me confirm!"

"Ten kilometers... Could it be the city? Was there an attack there?" Bai Zi, who had just returned from exercise, wiped the sweat from her head. The incident happened suddenly, and she rushed back to school without even taking a shower.

Following closely behind was Futaba, who had already carried her machine gun. Thanks to her more than two years of mercenary experience, she had developed the habit of always carrying a gun with her.

Ayane's fingers flew across the keyboard. A few lines of code flashed across the laptop screen before outputting a string of coordinates. Comparing them with the map, Ayane said, "The explosion location has been confirmed. It's in the city! The exact epicenter is... Shibaseki Ramen?!"

As if she was not sure about her calculation results, Ayane called up the real-time map to confirm it, but the fact was that her calculation results were absolutely correct. The place where Shibaguan Ramen was originally located is now only a ruin.

"The Shibaseki Ramen Shop was razed to the ground?!"

Ayane would rather her calculations were wrong, but the facts were before her eyes, and General Chai was afraid...

"Huh?! No, that's impossible! Who would have nothing better to do than attack a ramen shop?"

It was Serika, followed by Eri. They heard Ayane's voice before they even entered the door. Serika, who had been working part-time at Shibaseki Ramen and had a good relationship with Shibaseki Daisho, was extremely flustered.

"If it's not a strategic location, not a major transportation route, then who could it be...

"Could it be that you are the second one and the third one? Is Yueyi going to see Qinxiang?"

Baizi guessed, but since they had already found out that Serika worked part-time at Shibaseki Ramen, it didn't make sense. Could it be that she was only there in the afternoons?

"We can speculate slowly later, but now let's take action! Let's go to the scene and take a look. Ayane, remember to contact Hoshino!"

The teacher stopped organizing the documents, picked up his pistol and ran out of the activity room first.

The original building of Shibaseki Ramen Shop has disappeared, leaving only the billowing smoke and ruins.

"Ahem, ahem, wow, the building disappeared without a trace."

"Ahem, what on earth is this..."

Mutsuki and Kayoko, who had recovered from the explosion, kept coughing, while Haruka, the culprit of the explosion, stood there in a daze, still holding the detonator.

Alu was dizzy from the sudden explosion, and when she finally recovered, she saw only ruins on the ground.

[What, what's going on?]

Ah Lu was confused. It seemed like she just complained while eating noodles. Where was the noodle shop? Why was it gone?

"Alu... you really, really ruined the ramen shop?

"Because you think this familiar place will soften your heart, so you just let Haruka blow up this ramen shop? Sure!

"This is what a truly cold-blooded villain looks like! An ordinary nobody would never do such a bad thing! You are the real villain!"

Mutsuki's flattery made Alu even more confused.

"Eh? Big bad guy? Me, me?"

"Yeah! This is the most hardcore outlaw! You're amazing, Alu-chan! You really impressed me!"

"Ah? Ah! Of course! I'm a cold-blooded outlaw!"

Although she didn't know why Mutsuki praised her like that, she just agreed. However, she was happy about it. However, Serika, who rushed over and heard everything, didn't think so.

"So...it turns out it's you guys again! I didn't bother with you last time, but you're doing this again this time?!"

Serika walked forward with a dark face. She was so angry that she couldn't express it in words. Fortunately, Ayane's voice came from the headset and prevented her from going crazy.

"We've found General Chai! Luckily, he's only slightly injured, and the drone has already directed him to a nearby shelter!"

"Great, so we can have a good fight now, right? Come on! I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"

By the time Mei arrived at the scene, the four members of Convenience House 68 had been suppressed to the point where they couldn't even raise their heads. They were suppressed by Nomiya's sweeping fire and Futaba's short bursts of fire, not to mention the precise shooting of Serika, Shiroko and Eri. Convenience House 68 found it difficult to even fight back.

"What's happening here?"

Finding that he couldn't get involved, Ya simply stood next to the teacher who was directing the battle and asked the teacher.

Their team had the advantage in numbers, and it was only a matter of time before Convenience House 68 was defeated. The teacher took the time to repeat the whole story to Ya.

"Attack a ramen shop? They really have too much free time."

As the teacher spoke, combined with what he had seen and heard before, Ya gradually formed a preliminary impression of these fellow villagers from Gehena.

Anyway, the word "abstract" will be associated with these four people in Ya's place from now on.

The battle was quickly decided, and the counterattack that the convenience store managed to organize failed after Alu was accidentally hit by Nomiya's bullet.

Alu's right hand was injured. After being hit by Nomiya's special bullet, her right hand suddenly hurt so much that she couldn't even lift the gun. The other three people who lost Alu's fire support didn't even have the ability to fight back.

Just as Qinxiang was about to go forward and knock them out one by one and take them back to Abydos, as expected, an accident happened.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

There seemed to be some sound in the air. Ya looked up and saw several blurry black shadows flying towards them rapidly with her excellent eyesight.

[Looks like... a mortar!]

Without thinking too much, Ya grabbed the teacher's collar and pushed him to the ground. Before she could make any more moves, the black shadow had already fallen to the ground.

"Boom boom boom!"

After a few explosions, the girl could feel some fragments hitting her back, and the pain almost made her fall to the ground. Fortunately, the explosion site was far away from her, and she pressed the teacher to the ground in time. If those fragments had hit the teacher without the halo... she didn't dare to imagine what the scene would be like.

"Artillery fire! Grenadiers spotted three kilometers away!

"It's a 50mm mortar! It seems the target isn't us, but the convenience store. We need to confirm..."

Ayane's message came through the headset, her drone was collecting more data in the air.

"Is it Gehenna's Disciplinary Committee?"

Futaba stopped shooting. The sound of the explosion was very familiar to her. She had even used this weapon herself before.

"Huh? Yes, we've confirmed the troop's affiliation. It's the Gehenna Discipline Committee, with about a company of personnel!"

"Ahem, thank you very much, Xiaoya." The teacher got up from the ground and thanked Ya, but the latter ignored her. The intervention of the Discipline Committee made her frown.

She now has no good feelings towards Gehenna's official agencies.

The Story of Abydos: Chapter 17: The God of Injury Resistance

"The enemy's bombardment hasn't stopped. Although their target is Convenience House 68, we are also within the bombardment range." Ayane's voice continued in the headset. "Ah, they have two teams entering the scene!"

"What a joke! Those people from Gehenna are trespassing into another school's self-managed area without permission. Aren't they afraid of causing trouble? What on earth do they want?"

The four people in Convenience House 68 have been stunned by the incessant bombardment. Qinxiang, who is closest to them, is not feeling well either. Fortunately, she retreated in time, otherwise she would have suffered the same fate as Convenience House 68. That is why the dizzy black-haired cat has such a great resentment.

Nomiya supported Serika with concern. The Discipline Committee was different from Convenience House 68. This official armed group entering another school's self-governing area without permission was no different from declaring war.

But Gehenna is one of the three strongest schools after all. How can Abydos, with only five people left, resist Gehenna's invasion?

"Ayane-kun, haven't you contacted President Hoshino yet?"

At this time, the first person Nomiya thought of was his senior. If Hoshino was there, the problem should be resolved quickly, right?

But Ayane's voice in the headset was destined to disappoint her: "No, this is the first time I haven't been able to contact her in such a long time...

"Teacher, what should we do now?"

After all, they were teenagers, and it was inevitable that they would panic when encountering such a thing for the first time. At this time, they all turned to the only adult at the scene for help.

"Are we just going to hand the convenience house over to the Discipline Committee?" The teacher replied, "After all, this is Abydos's self-governing area, right?"

"Well, the teacher is right. There is no other choice. We have to stop the Discipline Committee."

Bai Zi was the first to understand what the teacher meant. No matter what, the Disciplinary Committee had already entered the Abydos self-governing area, and the dispute had already occurred. Now the only option was to fight back. This was a matter of Abydos' sovereignty.

"Captain Xiaoya, what should we do?" Eri asked Ya for her opinion.

Theoretically, they did not belong to Abydos, so the conflict between Abydos and Gehenna had nothing to do with them. Besides... they were all Gehenna's students. Of course, it didn't mean that they had any good feelings towards Gehenna, but they had heard of the chairman of the disciplinary committee.

The legendary figure who can suppress all the instability in Gehenna by himself, Kurosaki Hinai.

Especially Futaba, as Hinata's classmate and former colleague, she had realized how powerful Hinata was as early as her first year. If Hinata was the leader of the Disciplinary Committee this time, Futaba didn't want to confront her from the bottom of her heart.
