The shining Shoko Toyokawa

Just as Ying Lili was hesitating whether to call out to the two, the horse had already crossed the jeep.

"Stop those annoying guys!"

So she could only vent her dissatisfaction on the 'tail' behind her.

"Yes"

Natasha responded, and the jeep began to sway from side to side, completely occupying the narrow road. Seeing this, the car behind Xia Ya and the others had no choice but to brake and stop.

Ying Lili shook her dizzy head and looked back. Xia Ya and Ai Yin had disappeared on the other side of the mound.

"Aren't you going to catch up, Miss?"

"No... no need!" Ying Lili was like a student who was suddenly called upon to answer a question. Her voice was two octaves louder than usual.

"They will be back soon..."

At this point, her voice became so soft that it seemed as if she was talking to herself.

Natasha's grey eyes were filled with helplessness. "Young girls always don't know how to be on guard against fire, theft and best friends..."

…………

"Look Xia Ya-san, it's a kangaroo!"

Seeing the kangaroos in the distance, Aine was so excited.

So Xia Ya suggested: "How about we follow?"

“Oh, is it okay?

Yay!

"Um," Aiyin said a little embarrassedly, "Xia Ya-san, can you hold me tight? I want to take some pictures."

"OK,"

Xia Ya responded and hugged the pink-haired girl with both hands holding the reins.

"Xia Ya-san love!"

Aine excitedly took out her phone and started taking photos non-stop. Although many of the photos were distorted or blurred due to the horse running, she was still very happy.

“By the way,” Aine suggested, “Shaya-san, could you please turn sideways a little? Let’s take a photo together on horseback!”

Xia Ya thought for a moment, then gently pulled the reins to change the horse to a canter. "Okay, take a picture, but Aine, you can't post it online or show it to anyone else."

"Okay!"

Aine couldn't wait to raise her phone. Although she felt something was wrong, there was nothing more joyful than taking a photo with her friends.

'Very good!'

So, under the blindingly bright sunlight, Aine raised her phone.

The breeze blew their hair, and the pink-haired girl made a "yeah" gesture with her left hand, smiling innocently and carefree.

The girl holding her with a high ponytail looked like a sister trying to cheer her up, with a somewhat helpless smile on her face.

"Click,"

In Area 11, mobile phone photography is not allowed to be muted.

As Aine pressed the shutter button, this moment was frozen forever.

The horses continued to chase the group of kangaroos, and were eventually blocked by a huge lake.

Aine jumped off the horse, took off her shoes, and carefully dipped her toes into the clear blue water.

"ah!"

She screamed in surprise at the cold water, turned around and shouted excitedly, "Xia Ya-san, don't you want to come with us?"

Just when Xia Ya was about to get off the horse, her smart watch rang. It was Ying Lili calling.

She gestured to Aiyin to wait a moment and answered Ying Lili's call.

"Xia Ya, that's great! My dad said the results of the investigation are out, and you and Aine are free!"

As soon as I picked up the phone, Ying Lili's excited voice came from the other side.

It was obviously good news, but the smile on Xia Ya's face disappeared.

"Yeah," she replied, indicating that she understood. "Ying Lili, Aiyin and I will be back soon. I'm going to hang up first."

She hung up the phone and said to the pink-haired girl playing in the water, "Aine, come up quickly, we should go back."

"Why is this happening?! I want Xia Ya-san to feel the lake water too."

Aiyin persuaded him as she put on her shoes, "Just once, okay? Just once, it will be over soon."

Xia Ya just looked at Aine and smiled without saying anything.

Finally, Aine was defeated and got on the horse with a little grumble.

"Hey, Xia Ya-san, can we come to the lake to play again next time?"

The wind grew louder, and the pink-haired girl's voice vanished in the wind...

…………

……

That night, Xia Ya declined Ying Lili's mother's request to stay and left the Spencer's manor.

Three days later, the banquet was held as scheduled.

At night, Ying Lili and Ai Yin, who were in a bad mood, held each other's hands and danced to Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake".

At the flying base hundreds of kilometers away from the manor, Xia Ya once again climbed down from the fixed rollers exhausted.

This time she didn't vomit.

Because I've vomited enough.

"This won't work,"

Xia Ya lay on the lawn, her eyes reflecting the dark clouds that obscured the stars.

"The stars will get farther and farther away from humans..."

"Kesi, I will become stronger and show you how strong I am!

As strong as a new human!"

Xia climbed onto the device again.

In the gorgeous manor, the melody of Swan Lake continues.

Aine whispered to Illy, "Why is this song so sad?"

"Maybe it's because it's inherently sad, and it's often used at funerals,"

——Ying Lili answered,

"A funeral..."

Aine looked out the window. The night sky in the outer suburbs of Sydney was dark and dim.

Chapter 29: Snow Plan

"Why did I only distribute less than 500 GPS units according to my plan?! Didn't Special Operations Headquarters purchase 1?!"

In February, in the Red Sea, a Type 45 guided missile destroyer belonging to the British Navy,

Naomi Misora ​​angrily rushed into a makeshift "office".

People wearing several different military uniforms gathered here, and if they threw something, they could hit a few school stars.

Here, Naomi Misora's rank is not high.

If she hadn't 'warned' about the shrine attack, she wouldn't have been qualified to board the ship at all.

"What GPS unit? Do you idiots really think there's a Gundam?!"

A Lieutenant Colonel from Ji'an slammed his hands on the table and glared at Naomi Misora, "Our great Ji'an intelligence department is the best in the world. If they haven't found the Gundam, then there isn't one!

That $1 piece of junk you're talking about only lets you know you've been attacked when a special bomb explodes. It's a complete waste of tax dollars."

"you…"

Naomi Misora ​​was so angry that she was shaking. She clearly remembered that the positioning device that emitted a signal once every 5 seconds cost only $100. Why did the price increase 100 times when it came to them?

"So the people from District 11 are just not okay. Get her out and let her get off the ship when we dock tomorrow."

Lieutenant Colonel Jian waved his hand, and two officers stood up and walked towards Minato Naomi.

She looked for help at two colonels she knew, but they pretended not to see her.

Naomi Misora ​​clenched her fists, turned around and left the meeting room.

Just leave, her work hasn't been going smoothly in the past month anyway.

"These damn old men!"

Naomi Misora ​​walked onto the deck and kicked the steel column of the guardrail hard.

Naturally, the next second she wanted to roll on the ground holding her feet. How could a human foot possibly kick a steel plate...

She didn't care whether the deck was clean or not, she sat down on the ground, took out her cigarette case,

But she was too busy these days and had no time to restock her 'ammunition'. The box was empty, as if mocking her.

"Depend on!"

Naomi Misora ​​suddenly threw the cigarette box into the sea and raised the documents in her hand.

That was the plan she had developed over the past month, taking into account the situation, culture, and topography of the Red Sea, the Pharaoh Peninsula, the Kingdom of Jian, and Elstan and its surrounding areas.

The original plan was to deploy 10 GPS locators around Ji'an State to accurately warn of the direction of the "enemy's" attack.

The project is called "Snow Project"

In some areas, hunters hunt in winter because it is easier to follow the tracks of prey on the snow.

Whether it is a rabbit, a wild deer, a fox or a wolf, as long as the hunter finds their "footprints", they will not escape the fate of death.

But the snow plan was aborted before it even started.

America announced that in order to help Gian deal with the threat of Ave Mujica, it would approve another 100 billion in military aid to Gian.

They used Ave Mujica as an excuse to send more warplanes and bombs to the land.

But they looked down on Ave Mujica, thinking that he was just a clown.

Rather than spending money on warning Ave Mujica, the Ji'an Army would rather use it to buy artillery shells and drop them on civilian areas...

"Oblivionis-san, what are you thinking? This will only bring more disasters and cause more people to die in vain..."

Naomi Misora ​​fell into memories——

"Kick them out of our homes!"

The 14-5 year old boys charged the enemies with weapons older than their age.

What awaits them is dense minefields, precisely guided artillery fire and bombs.

They didn't even see the enemy before they all fell...

"Does this kind of death really have any meaning?"

"Prepare for battle, prepare for battle! Everyone on deck, please leave!"

The sudden alarm interrupted Naomi Misora's thoughts.

She quickly stood up and followed the sailors off the deck.

A dozen seconds later, missiles took off from the launch silo and flew into the night sky.

This time the 'battle' seemed particularly intense. The warship, which was in a safe area, also participated in the air defense mission.

Naomi Misora ​​looked through the porthole in the direction of the missile's flight. A few dim points of light bloomed in the distant night sky.

One after another, carrier-based aircraft formations flew low in the direction of the missiles. Even without looking at Naomi Misora, she knew that these fighters did not have a single pound of external weapons to deal with enemy aircraft.

They were all bombs...

Because their 'enemy' doesn't have even a single fighter plane that can compete with the formation.
