The number of enemies attacking in the Ginza incident was about 60,000. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the third attack from the first time to last night, about 60,000 people were killed and wounded (not counting monsters such as goblins), and a total of 120,000 troops were lost, so what did the enemy plan to do?

To what extent the population of this world has reached, there is no way to know, after all, they are only securing the "gate" and the surrounding area, and have not done any surveys.

However, if you think about it with common sense, after losing tens of thousands of combat forces, it is impossible for a tribe or country to be unscathed. Among the soldiers who fell to the ground, there were also people who appeared to be children.

Whether it was a child in the first place, or a certain race with a face like this, although I don't know・・・・・・ but if this country has already sent children to war, it can be said that it is the end of the road.

If even Itami felt this way, of course the other executives would think the same way.

"There must be an investigation in this world!"

In order to secure a certain area after advancing, to be able to continue to defend the perimeter of the "gate", and to negotiate with the enemy, it is necessary to obtain information and formulate future policies.

Fortunately, there is an OH.1 helicopter that takes photos and can make a map of the surrounding area, and if a gliding channel can be opened, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft can take off~

After that, we will investigate the type of people who live, how they live, how they live, how they live, how they live, and how they behave.

How do you investigate?

Of course, it is directly to go to the face-to-face survey.

"I don't know if it's possible," Itami scratched his head in annoyance.

"It's not a question of whether it's feasible or not! Higaki's third-class Lu Zuo said to his unresponsive subordinates as if he was a little tired.

"Huh?!" Itami tilted his head in confusion at his new boss's words.

As a cadre, he was a burdensome second-class lieutenant belonging to the Fifth Combat Regiment. Although it is not unclear about the task of investigating, there are no subordinates.

"Do you mean, I'm going alone?"

"I didn't say anything like that. In short, first organize into six deep intelligence reconnaissance teams, and your mission is to command the third team. Contact with the residents of the responsible area to grasp the people's feelings. If possible, it is advisable to establish a friendly relationship in order to be able to obtain assistance in future activities. ”

"Is it ・・・・・・・? In this way, Itami scratched the back of his head and became the captain of the third reconnaissance team.

"The sky is so blue, it's a different world. Itami muttered to himself. Large chunks of white clouds floated in the blue sky, and there were no poles or wires or anything. From front to back, it's a complete sky.

"It's a scenery that you can see even if you go to Hokkaido. Lieutenant Kurata 3rd Class in the driver's seat responded.

"I'm imagining a place where big trees are roaming, dragons are running around, and goblins are buzzing. But so far, the villages I have passed by are all humans, and the domestic animals are all cattle and sheep, so I am very disappointed. Kurata had just finished the course of a general Lu Cao alternate student, and he was only twenty-one years old, and after knowing that Itami didn't pay much attention to the relationship between his superiors and subordinates, he spoke very casually.

Against the backdrop of the blue sky, military vehicles painted in the green grassland are running in a procession.

In front is a Type 7 small truck, followed by a high-tech vehicle (HMV) and a lightly armored vehicle (LAV).

In short, the first two are jeeps, and the second one is an armored car.

Itami was on the second tall vehicle.

In the back seat sat the members of the Third Scout Team he led. There are three vehicles, a total of twelve personnel, and this is the total combat strength of the reconnaissance team.

"I said Kurata, if you go a little further ahead, you should be able to see a stream. After seeing it, go right and follow the stream, and after a while, you will see a forest, which is the forest that the village chief of Koda Village said. ”

Kuwabara Caochang, who used the map made from aerial photographs to compare and explain the azimuth magnet, was trained by a second-class Lu Shi and is 50 years old this year. She also has a lot of experience as a teaching assistant in the education team. He was called "Uncle" by the new team members and was feared. Kurata also completed his early education under the guidance of Kuwabara Caocho at the Takeyama garrison when he was a new member.

There are no satellites in the world yet, so GPS is not available. Therefore, only maps and compasses can be relied upon. And the most experienced people in this area are competent, so Itami pushed all the operations of the team to Kuwabara.

"Second Lieutenant Itami, I have an opinion. Stop in front of the forest and go camping. Hearing Kuwabara's words, Itami turned around and said "yes." Kuwabara nodded lightly and picked up the microphone on the communicator.

Kurata confirmed the distance from the workshop of the lightly armored motor vehicle behind from the rearview mirror.

"Aller, Second Lieutenant Itami. Why don't you drive over in one go?"

"If you drive into the forest now, it's going to be night, right? If you want to spend a night in the forest where you don't know what animals are inside, forget it. And even if, as the intelligence says, there is a village in it, it will frighten the people who live in it, right? How could we, the Self-Defense Forces, which are known for their love for the people, act like a threat to others? Itami said.

The purpose of this reconnaissance operation was to communicate with the residents and investigate the situation of the people, and although it was convenient to use a helicopter, it was deliberately walked from the ground to communicate with the residents.

Violent repression is not the goal. Try to avoid things that cause disgust. That is the course of action.

So far, I have passed through three settlements and tried to communicate with the inhabitants of this land. The inhabitants all said that the war was the lord's business and had nothing to do with them, and they did not show any disgust for Itami. Well, there is no need for them to do superfluous things to complicate the work.

"Wait a minute!"

A person, or rather a person that Itami had ever seen, appeared in the direction of the car!

Red-haired girl!

"She'・・・・・・ that time!" Itami clearly recognized the girl.

"Second Lieutenant Itami, do you know her?" Kuwabara asked, looking at Itami.

"I saved her during the Ginza incident, but why is she in this world?!"

When everyone got out of the car, everyone except Itami was hostile to the red-haired girl.

"Long time no see. The red-haired girl said with a nonchalant expression, it was obvious that she knew Itami too.

"Why are you here? That 'gate' should only be passed through by our Self-Defense Forces!" Itami asked.

"It's a little tricky. ”

"Ah~Sanwu~ Although it's very good, I don't know if I say that!" What a small trick, the 'door' guarded by so many people was actually broken through by a little girl!

"Fire ・・・・・・・" The red-haired girl didn't explain, and slowly turned around and pointed into the distance.

"Fire?" the crowd looked up, and what caught their eyes was black smoke rising into the sky.

"It's burning・・・・・・・・"

To Kurata's words, Itami looked up at the black smoke and replied, "Yes, it's still burning strong!", and tongues of fire are still coming out of the forest.

"This is the power of nature~"

"Dragon ・・・・・・・" The red-haired girl spoke again, and after hearing her words, not only Itami, but even Kurata and Kuwabara couldn't help but be stunned.

"Itami! look, that ・・・・・・・," Kuwabara said, handing the binoculars to Itami and pointing to the right.

"That's it!" Itami moved his telescope to where Kuwabara was pointing.

A giant creature that looked like it had wings on a tyrannosaurus rex was spewing flames into the ground.

"King Ghidorah with one head (King Ghidorah, the most recognizable evil monster in the Godzilla films, has three heads)?"

"Uncle, you're outdated, that's an ancient dragon!" Kurata complained after listening to Kuwabara's words.

Kuwabara is a person who thinks of Bruce Lee's era when he hears the word dragon, so the conversation doesn't fit.

"How did you see it, human eyesight shouldn't be able to see there!" Lu Cao, the second rank of Kuribayashi, who came to the crowd, asked the red-haired girl.

"I'm not an ordinary person. "The red-haired girl doesn't seem to be a good word to anyone but Stein.

"Because I'm not an ordinary person, can I break through the 'door' that is guarded by layers・・・・・・・" Kuwabara touched his chin.

"The village has burned down・・・・・・・・" the red-haired girl pointed again to the area shrouded in flames.

"What?!"

"Oh no! It seems to say that there is a village in that forest!"

"However, we can't defeat that dragon, so let's hide in place and see how it goes. Then wait for the dragon to leave, and then go into the forest, and if anyone survives, it can only be rescued・・・・・・" In desperation, Itami could only say this.

"I went, but it was too late, and I was already dead and there was only one person left. ”

"How do you know?" Itami really didn't want to complain about this three-nothing girl, every word she said gave people the feeling of a girl with radio waves.

"Intuition!"

"A woman's sixth sense?!" Itami finally couldn't help but complain.

"Second Lieutenant Itami, are you discriminating against women?" Kuribayashi looked at Itami with a look that became a little unkind.

"No・・・・・・・ I didn't mean that・・・・・・・"

"What does that mean?!"

"Uh・・・・・・・" Seeing Kuribayashi's aggressive appearance, Itami was really out of shape.

As a result, when Itami and the others entered the forest, it was already the morning of the next day.

Because the flames did not disappear at night, and there was still black smoke, which was not conducive to observing the situation, thanks to the rain in the middle of the night, the forest fire was finally extinguished, and it was finally possible to enter the forest.

"Anyway, I haven't asked your name yet, can you tell me?" On the way, Itami finally accosted the red-haired girl who had been silent.

"Eva, Eva Sha Melegrin. The red-haired girl replied.

"Eva-chan・・・・・・・ it's a cute name~ It's just that it doesn't match the character very well. ”

"Cute, cute, it's the first time anyone has said that, and many people used to look at me with hatred and hostility. ”

"What did this child go through in the past?!! this was the thought in Itami's mind.
