Special effects: Saving the world starting from becoming a Zergling

Chapter 135 Atonement

The two encountered no further troubles on their journey and returned to the laundromat without incident.

For the rest of the time, Yuuma and Inui helped Keitaro deliver clothes while observing the mental state of each family.

In the midst of our busy schedules, time flew by and evening arrived.

After the four of them had finished dinner, the doorbell rang.

"It must be Kiba who's here."

Yuzhen glanced at the clock to confirm who had arrived.

They had arranged the time back in the afternoon.

Before Yuuma could speak, Mari ran downstairs and opened the door.

Kiba led Kaidou Naoya into the laundromat, followed by Mari, and they went up to the second floor together.

"You mean, you have a way to save Yuuka?"

As soon as they reached the second floor, Kiba stared intently at Yuuma, who was sitting there, and asked in a deep voice.

"Your expression right now is exactly the same as Keitaro's when he heard this news."

Yuma smiled at them, gesturing for them to sit down and continue their conversation.

"Hey, if you have this news, tell me what it is!"

Naoki Kaidou wasn't so good-tempered; he looked at Yuuma with an impatient expression.

Seeing the anxious Naoya Kaidou, Yuuma smiled without saying a word.

"So you like being a riddle teller, I'll be the riddle teller today and let you taste what it's like to be left hanging."

He was thinking to himself, but on the surface he remained calm and composed.

Seeing that Yuzhen was unwilling to say anything, Haitang Naoya anxiously took two steps forward, wanting to grab Yuzhen's collar and pull him up from the chair.

"Naoya."

Kiba stretched out a hand and stopped Kaidou Naoya.

After taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he pulled up a chair and slowly sat down opposite Yuzuru.

"Now, can you tell us exactly what the method is?"

Seeing Kiba's fingers intertwined, Yuma stopped dangling them and took out the two bottles of medicine from his pocket.

Seeing the confused looks on Kiba Yuji and Kaidou Naoya's faces, Yuma put them on the table and explained to the two of them.

"This is something left behind by President Hanagata; consider it compensation for you."

Yuma explained her guess to the two of them.

"You mean, Hanagata deliberately made us leave Tokyo?!"

"Outside of Tokyo, there is absolutely no way to cure Yuka."

Kiba's heart sank, and he directly pointed out Yuuma's unspoken meaning.

"His goal is for us to be able to join the Brainpower Corporation immediately after we return..."

Based on Kiba's speculation, Kaidou Naoya's face also darkened.

"How could my father be such a person?"

The conversation between the three was naturally overheard by Zhenli on the other side, who shook her head and denied the claim.

In her mind, Hanagata has always been a tall and gentle person.

"President Hanagata is certainly not that kind of person."

"This matter is directly related to me."

Yuzhen didn't hide anything from them and told them directly about her time travel.

"Yuma, this kind of joke isn't funny at all."

After hearing this, Kiba thought Yu was joking.

This is equivalent to the ability to reverse cause and effect.

"If someone could really travel through time, wouldn't they be able to change things at will?"

"If you have that ability, Yuuma, why don't you go back to when Takumi Inui fought the King of Orphnoch and help him defeat him?"

Faced with the doubts, You Zhen had no way to explain the reasoning to the others in detail, so he chose to push the medicine towards the two of them.

"In short, these two doses of medicine are the key to saving Jiehua."

Looking at the two bottles of medicine on the table, Kiba reached out, examined them carefully for a moment, and then put them down again.

"That's not enough; the interior of the Brainpower Company is extremely dangerous."

"Yukika has been in a coma for a long time, and even with these two bottles of medicine, it will probably be difficult for her to wake up quickly."

"If any new harm is suffered during this period, even God cannot undo it."

Hearing this, Yuuma knew that Kiba had wavered, otherwise he wouldn't have discussed rescuing Yuka with him.

He smiled calmly: "As long as you can weaken the defenses of the AI ​​company during the operation, leave the rest to us."

Upon hearing Yuma's words, Kaidou Naoya had just opened his mouth when Kiba interrupted him with his outstretched hand.

It's a deal.

Kiba stared at the man in front of him who seemed to have victory in his grasp, and chose to believe him.

Even though Yuuma didn't tell him anything about the plan to rescue Yuka.

Kiba's straightforward attitude surprised Yuuma for a moment, but she quickly extended her hand and shook hands with Kiba's.

"Since you're willing to trust me, I certainly won't let you down."

"If a man can say he believes in the sun, I have no reason not to believe him."

They both spoke at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.

"With my status, I can at most help you divert some of the patrolling Leo cavalry. The rest of the journey is up to you."

"At that time, I will stay by your side and help you solve some problems."

Having confirmed the partnership, Kiba glanced at his watch and got up to leave.

He had another meeting to attend that evening, and if it weren't for the fact that the matter of Jiehua was so important that it overshadowed everything else, he probably wouldn't have come at all today.

"If you're ready to take action, just give me a call."

Knowing that everyone had their own phone number, Kiba gave them instructions.

"The sooner the better, we've been preparing for this."

Yuma's words, however, made Kiba pause in surprise.

He looked at Yuuma, whose expression was inscrutable, and nodded.

"I will notify you of the operation once I have everything ready on my end."

After saying that, he pulled away, leaving with Haitang Naoya, who was glaring at him.

Problem solved.

After Kiba and the other person left, Yuma picked up the tea on the table, the steam still condensing in mid-air, and took a sip.

The ability to pause time can sometimes become a life hack, such as keeping the flavor of tea at its best.

"Is this really okay?"

Looking at the carefree Yuzhen, Zhenli's face showed a hint of worry.

In her opinion, the group's discussion was too hasty.

"As long as the execution is swift enough, nothing will be a problem."

Yu-chan put down her teacup and looked out the window at the still brightly lit building.

"I have a premonition that if we choose to proceed cautiously, an unpredictable and terrifying catastrophe will befall us."

fear?

Truth tilted her head, somewhat not understanding what Yuuma was saying.

In her opinion, nothing could get any worse than it is now.

"I had the same feeling."

Upon hearing Yuuma's words, Inui clutched his chest.

After arriving at the Brainpower Company today, he felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

This made him feel uneasy all day.

"Is that so...?"

'

Knowing his own inadequacy, Truth fell silent and leaned against Inui, quietly enjoying this moment of peace.

"Damn it..."

Seeing the two of them snuggling together, Yuma and Keitaro huddled together, silently shedding tears.

The house was quiet, but the outside was anything but peaceful.

"Kiba, what on earth are you thinking?!"

Shaking off Kiba's hand, Kaidou Naoya angrily questioned him.

"Given their appearance, how can you trust them?"

"We've already trusted Inui Takumi once, but what was the result he delivered?"

"You saw it too!"

Seeing Kaidou Naoya's furious expression, Kiba looked towards the building.

"Haitang, our time is running out."

"I can sense that Murakami and the others are becoming less and less tolerant of us."

"Rather than being slowly swallowed up, we might as well seize this opportunity and fight with all our might."

After hearing Kiba's words, Kaidou Naoya fell silent.

The internal workings of the Brainpower Company are never monolithic; there are always undercurrents of unrest.

Since the original four-leaf clovers from Kitasaki returned to Smart Brain Company not long ago, the two of them have received less and less attention.

"We also bear some responsibility for what happened to Yuka."

After Kiba finished speaking, he walked into the long night.

He was also atoning for his sins.
