In a duel between masters, victory or defeat can often be decided in an instant, with a small mistake.
Nagato, who was already feeling guilty, naturally had no chance of winning.
Binjiang gave her no chance whatsoever; the instant she stood up, she pulled Nagato into her arms.
It's more accurate to call it kidnapping rather than hugging.
"Miss Hamae! Please...please, let go of Lord Nagato...We've been trying our best to find the Commander! If you have any problems, come at me!"
Noshiro got impatient, threw off the covers, rushed to Hamae, and pounded her chest.
"Idiot...Idiot ahhhhh..."
Unexpectedly, it was Agano who was the first to break down.
Regardless of whether Binjiang deliberately staged this based on personal conjecture, as long as they grit their teeth and refuse to admit it, Binjiang has no evidence and cannot do anything to them.
But unexpectedly, Noshiro, being so sentimental, couldn't hold back anymore.
Now things are really messed up. Her feigned illness can no longer be concealed. Everything has been exposed, and the perfect situation that Lord Nagato painstakingly built and the revitalized outcome have now been completely ruined and turned into a dead end.
"As expected... Hehe, I guessed right."
Binjiang sneered.
"I'm not stupid. Given your Sakura Empire's unusual behavior these past two days, how could Noshiro, who loves the Commander so much, end up like this and have to be hospitalized? Shoukaku ran off like that, and with Nagato hospitalized, such a big thing, not a single person came to visit? And your terrible acting skills, do you think you can fool me?"
"........."
Seeing that all was lost and being held in Binjiang's arms, Changmen could only sigh.
"Yes, the Commander is indeed lost. I am extremely sorry for my incompetence and for the poor handling of this matter by the entire Sakura Empire. Please forgive our deception, Hama-nee."
I originally thought that Binjiang would take Nagato hostage and do something drastic.
Unexpectedly, Binjiang suddenly loosened his arms upon hearing this.
"What the heck? I knew I was right, the Commander really is missing."
Binjiang gently placed Nagato back on the bed as if she were a rag doll, and patted her head reassuringly.
Nagato froze, her bright eyes fixed on the riverside in front of her.
What's the situation now?
"What's with that look, little sis? You don't think I'm going to eat you, do you?"
Binjiang playfully scratched Nagato's chin, as if teasing a little fox.
"The girls of our Donghuang family are expected to be dignified, poised, and refined when they go out. Although I can't learn all that myself, I do have some basic qualities."
"I'm...I'm sorry..."
It seems this misunderstanding has escalated significantly. I had thought Binjiang would have a hysterical fight, and that this incident might even have sparked a full-blown conflict between Donghuang and Chongying.
Isn't this completely without problems?
Nagato lowered her head in embarrassment.
Fortunately, the anxiety that had been hanging over me finally subsided, and the tension that had been building up finally eased.
These past two days have truly been unbearable for Nagato, a living hell. It's the first time I've felt that an exercise could be this exhausting.
"Why are you hiding something as important as the Commander from me? Just tell me straight. The Commander is a member of the Donghuang family. As his family, we will definitely use all our resources to find him immediately. What are you worried about?"
"But... do the other ship girls from the Eastern Empire think the same way?"
Nagato still had some worries.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Look at me, I don't care, so what about other girls?"
Binjiang spoke casually, and then winked at Nagato with her right eye to reassure her.
"Besides, I'm the only one who knows about this. If I don't tell them, who will know?"
Hama patted Nagato on the back with a hearty pat, which made Agano and Mutsu sweat profusely.
No one has ever dared to be so familiar with the Divine Child.
It has to be said that Binjiang is a contradiction. You could say she's sensible and clear-headed when it comes to matters of principle.
However, when it comes to the attitude towards the current leader of Sakura Empire, Hamako is truly unscrupulous.
"Now, let's get serious. Tell me everything you know about the current situation, and I'll see how to handle it."
Binjiang stopped joking around and became serious, looking at Nagato in front of him with a straight face.
"Okay, I'll tell you everything that happened."
The air outside the cellar was thick with the smell of gunpowder from war.
Akagi's ideas were very simple and pure.
"Enough, Akagi, stop now. We know everything. Hand over the commander obediently."
"is it?"
Despite Shoukaku's threatening attempts to dissuade him, Akagi showed no fear whatsoever.
"I'm not afraid."
Akagi wiped her lips, trying to suppress her trembling heart.
As long as they don't admit it, they can't find the commander, and no one can do anything to them!
She was too lazy to respond further; she figured if the stalemate continued, she would be the one to win in the end.
Knowing that they are struggling to survive, they are putting up a last-ditch effort.
But Chicheng knew very well that this was all he could do now; he had exhausted all his options and had no other choice.
"Hindenburg, can you sense the commander's current location?"
Shoukaku turned his head and spoke in the gentlest of words, words that made Akagi's heart crumble and shatter little by little.
"Of course, it's right at the foot of Chicheng, about 3 meters away."
Lying on the ground, still unable to move, Hindenburg, panting heavily, uttered a word that revealed the secret of heaven.
"Is that so? Then I'm counting on you, Egil. I'll take full responsibility if anything goes wrong."
"Shōkaku," he whispered, slowly raising his head, a patch of darkness already spreading across his forehead.
She wanted, desperately wanted to see Akagi's expression of panic at that moment.
Only with Akagi would Shoukaku desperately want to see the moment she breaks down.
"Although I don't know how big your status is in Sakura Empire, since you're willing to be my guarantor, then I won't stand on ceremony."
With a flick of his finger, Egil pointed, and the steel dragon began to gather energy in its mouth, its target pointing directly at Akagi's feet.
Akagi instinctively wanted to take a step back, but she forcibly restrained herself. If she retreated at this moment, she would be truly finished.
"Kaga, Tosa, what are you standing there for? Stop them!!"
Now, Akagi's only support is Kaga and Tosa.
They will definitely stand by me unconditionally and have complete faith in me.
"You...say something!"
There was no response; the air seemed to freeze.
Akagi was indeed starting to panic.
Because the temperature of Egil's steel dragon's heat source is constantly soaring.
This is no joke; the other party is clearly serious.
Why, why didn't Kaga and Tosa respond to me?
Akagi quickly turned her head to look at the two of them and found that they were both staring blankly behind them.
Eh? ? ?
Following Kaga and the others' gaze, Akagi turned around to look.
At that moment, she knew it was all over.
Wearing a black bodysuit, Tiancheng staggered as he carried the barely alive Shen Xin out of the cellar.
Episode 96: To become powerful, you must eat the forbidden fruit.
when?
why?
Looking at the Amagi before him, Akagi fell into a state of existential doubt.
How exactly did Sister Tiancheng discover the secret passage?
Or.......
She already knew from the beginning?
But there's no reason for that. Given Tiancheng's physical condition, she has trouble even standing up. Even if she could walk, she wouldn't be able to enter the secret passage.
Amagi definitely doesn't have enough stamina to rescue the Commander!
unless.........
Amagi didn't want to think about it that way, but when she saw the different colored patches of wetness on the black bodysuit she was wearing, she was surprised.
She got it.
After confirming that Akagi had left the secret passage and that there was no sound from the secret room under his bed.
Tiancheng immediately followed and entered the secret passage.
When the city ventured deep into the secret passage, strictly speaking, she wasn't even sure where the commander was.
Because the secret passage was so dark, she could have used foxfire to light it up.
Putting aside the fact that she can barely stand, it's absolutely impossible for her to control the foxfire.
The dust in the air made her cough a few times.
This made Amagi realize very clearly that even if she had the ability to release foxfire, no flames should be lit here.
With this level of dust, even a tiny spark could blow the entire sealed room to smithereens.
Fortunately, Amagi has an extremely keen sense of smell, so even when moving forward in the dark, she can determine Akagi's usual routes and the location of the commander simply by smell.
At this moment, Shen Xin lay on the bed, questioning the meaning of life.
It's not that I'm complaining about my own experiences; it's just that I'm really bored when Akagi isn't around.
Next time, I might as well ask Akagi for help; even just bringing in a game console would be great.
However, Shen Xin couldn't help but shake her head, finding it somewhat laughable.
What kind of beautiful dream am I having? How could that be?
Given Akagi's heightened sense of defensiveness, I'd better just give up and play it safe. My biggest hope right now is that Akagi will bring back some good food next time.
For the first time, Shen Xin so desperately wanted to eat a hamburger and drink a Coke.
Although I ate this every day during my month in White Eagle, it wasn't until the moment I lost it that I realized this junk food represented more than just happiness and joy.
Rather, it's top-quality food that gives you the will to survive.
No wonder people say that during the apocalypse, something like Coca-Cola could become a hard currency comparable to tobacco and alcohol.
This is very convincing.
Just as she was pondering this, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Shen Xin felt somewhat excited.
You're back so soon? No way!
"Akagi?"
Shen Xin tilted her head and asked.
There was no response.
