Chapter 0023: The Misfortune of the Animals

On January 1st, at half past five in the evening, Port of Tokyo, Arakawa next to Rinkai Town, Edogawa Ward. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Forty-four people, plus sixteen people such as Yamazaki and Midaiko, just filled five lifeboats with a capacity of 12 people.

On Yamazaki and Mineko's boat, four members of the Second Mobile Team were arranged.

On the way back, Asano and Toshi, who were less than 30 years old, told them about their affairs, and after the companion on duty fell last night, nearby residents came to them for help, and then the fallen colleague in the police station woke up and bit people everywhere, and they couldn't control the scene, so they had to shoot, but it attracted a large group of monsters to besiege.

In the end, they retreated to the underground of the police station with some citizens.

Later, I heard on the radio that these monsters were called evil spirits.

It wasn't long ago that they noticed that the evil spirit was retreating, so they rushed out with the townspeople and had to shoot again in order to clear the way. ......

Passing under the bridge again, there were still evil spirits trying to jump onto the five boats.

However, Yamazaki noticed that the distance between the first jump and the last time the evil spirit jumped from the bridge was different, farther away from the bridge and closer when it left the bridge.

"U-turn. Yamazaki said to Maidiko.

"What?" Midaiko wondered.

"I wanted to do an experiment. Yamazaki said, "Let's see if the evil spirit jumps down if we go back." ”

"That's right. Mei Daiko said.

Yamazaki informed the other four boats and turned around to go under the bridge alone, only to have a small number of evil spirits jump down.

"Brother, what's going on?" asked Mei Daiko, puzzled.

"Either they know our boat and know they can't jump it, or they get a message from their companion and they know they can't jump on it. Yamazaki said.

Hiroki Uemura said, "Or both. ”

Takuya Kato asked, "That is, they still have some IQ?"

Yoshiki Kato asked, "What's wrong with this, many animals have IQs?"

Hideyuki Yoshioka said, "The problem is, these guys will kill us. ”

Nobuyuki Morita said, "Perhaps, they are similar to ants. ”

"I think it's kind of like. Mei Daiko said.

"Well, I'm afraid it's impossible to make them commit suicide en masse. Yamazaki said, "Let's go." ”

"Wait, sir, I have a proposal," said Takahisa Fukuda, "if we should go to the nearby Kasai Rinkai Park to see what the animals are doing." ”

"Yes, yes, if the animals are all wrong, then it's a big problem. Mei Daiko said. ......

Kasai Rinkai Park is located in Rinkai Town, 6-chome, right on the seafront, covering an area of about 810,000 square meters, with facilities such as an aquarium, an open-air bird garden, an open plaza, a large observation car, and a seaside park.

At nearly six o'clock in the evening, in the last rays of the sun, five motorized lifeboats entered the sea near Kasai Rinkai Park.

There don't seem to be evil spirits in the park, but there are many blood stains and countless debris on the ground, which should be last night's New Year's Eve party, which has turned into a bonfire for evil spirits. ......

At this time, ten people in the Kasai Seaside Park Management Building offshore, excitedly ran out and shouted for help, presumably hearing the motors of five motorized lifeboats.

However, the lifeboat could not sit down, so the Asano Police Department took 13 other members of the Metropolitan Police Department's 2nd Mobile Crew to disembark, including Yamazaki and four people from the Midaiko boat, and sat together on an inflatable raft, towed by two speedboats.

When you go back on the road and are near the open-air aviary, you can see a large number of birds lying motionless on the ground.

Takahisa Fukuda said, "It looks like he's dead. ”

Nobuyuki Morita said: "Fortunately, otherwise the evil spirit bird would have killed people. ”

Hiroki Uemura said, "I just don't know if all of them died, I mean, if some of them escaped." ”

"A visit to the aquarium should tell you. Yamazaki said. ......

Yamazaki, Midaiko, Yamizu Mayumi, and the Mimura Police Department, together with Captain Uchiyama and Hiroki Uemura, went ashore to Kasai Aquarium 150 meters away.

The entrance to Kasai's Rinkai Aquarium is on the west side, and everyone enters the underground exhibition hall with flashlights, and finds some blood stains and debris on the ground, and the tank is intact, and there are many schools of fish swimming in it, but some of the fish look dead and motionless.

"It seems that the fish are also suffering. ”

The Mimura Police Department said: "Fortunately, unlike us, we will become evil spirits. ”

"Fortunately, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to stay at sea. Captain Uchiyama said.

At this time, Midaiko heard a voice, "Who's there?"

Immediately the people were on alert.

"We are people, we are people. The voices of men and women were mixed, and then two men and two women ran out, the men were in their forties and the women were under thirty.

Seeing the mobile suit, the four of them were very happy.

"Are you a rescue team?"

"Great. ”

"You're finally here. ”

"Are all those monsters gone?"

"Stop. Yamazaki asked, "Are there just four of you here?"

"Yes, yes," said one man, "I'm Kazuo Togawa, this is Daisuke Kida, and we're the caretakers on duty last night, this is veterinarian Eemi Sugimoto and veterinarian Masae Sano." ”

Eimi Sugimoto said with palpitations: "Yesterday I came to see the New Year's Eve party with Maeda, and I left early in the middle of the night, so come and have a look." ”

"And then there was chaos outside," Sano said, with a sigh of relief, "and a lot of animals died." ”

Daisuke Kita said, "They also ran into here, and we hid in the room and didn't dare to go out. ”

Eemi Sugimoto said, "Then they left, but we were afraid that they were outside. ”

Mae Sano said, "Until I heard your voice just now. ”

Captain Uchiyama said, "Well, if you don't have a place to go, come with us." ”......

When they came out of the exhibition hall, it was already completely dark, and everyone boarded the boat and went directly back to the Tokyo ferry port, where Kazuo Togawa, Daisuke Kida, Eemi Sugimoto, and Masae Sano boarded the boat of Yamazaki and Midaiko.

On the way, Yamazaki contacted Sachiko Yamada on a channel on the walkie-talkie, and learned that many people were coming again, and Senator Aida took them all to the Brothers Ferry, and Senator Aida wanted to borrow the Oyo Hanagishima Ferry.

Yamazaki said, "You can give it to her, but you still have to advertise it." ”

"Yes, sir, I would say we gave it. Sachiko Yamada said, "In addition, since I have obtained a lot of weapons and ammunition this time, Congresswoman Aida, I would like to discuss with you about your next move." ”

Yamazaki asked, "She wants to take the Izu Islands and the Ogasawara Islands?"

Sachiko Yamada smiled, "You are wise. ”

"Let's wait until we have counted our weapons and ammunition. Yamazaki said.

Midaiko asked, "Sachiko-sama, is dinner ready?"

Sachiko Yamada smiled, "When you come back, it will definitely be fine." ”

Yamazaki asked, "By the way, did you notice the animals?"

"Yes. Sachiko Yamada said, "Congresswoman Aida investigated the people on the Brothers ferry, and the fish, birds, cats, dogs, insects, snakes and other pets all fell and did not get up, and the animals probably died directly." ”

"This is a blessing in disguise. Yamazaki said, "Let's do it first." ”......
