Chapter 14: The Death of a Coward (Part II)

After successfully escaping, Keiji Nishikawa walked a long way before daring to look back and confirm that no one had caught up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info His shirt was already wet with cold sweat, and if someone blocked his way with a gun at this time, he would definitely be scared to pee his pants.

He hurriedly ran along the path to the aboriginal settlement he remembered once, not to hide in the aboriginal house, but to find a warehouse that the aborigines used to store grain in the past. The location is very remote, and although it is surrounded by wasteland, there are few traces of fierce beasts and poisonous snakes.

What's more, it's only 2 kilometers from the abandoned warehouse up a steep slope to the dock, which makes it easy for him to slip into the dock.

The next time the connector came on a supply ship was on the 16th, which was tomorrow. When Keiji Nishikawa thought about it, he first hid in the jungle, and when Nagato found out that he had absconded, it was basically night. At that time, even if she sent a team to chase her, she didn't dare to go deep into the jungle. Staying up until tomorrow morning and sneaking into the docks, he was sure to get on the supply ship while he was busy carrying supplies.

It wasn't until 1 p.m. that the exhausted Keiji Nishikawa walked to the abandoned barn, there was no one around, and the tuponic building had no door, like a small cave with a thick pile of dust piled up inside.

Ignoring the dirt inside the barn, Keiji Nishikawa sat on the ground and took out food and water from the suitcase. He was not like the natives who knew which rivers in the jungle had poisonous water, which rivers had water to drink, and which rivers had to boil before drinking. The two pots of water he brought out had already been drunk on the way, and he had to save the drinking water on his hands, conserve his strength, and tomorrow would be the starting point.

Thinking that he was sent by a creditor to collect his debts in Macao a year ago, it was just a door-to-door intimidation, and he occasionally showed off his knife to play prestige, if he could pay off his gambling debts at that time, he would not have fallen to the current state of living in Macao with peace of mind.

The radish and cabbage in the canned food only have an unpalatable oily taste, not to mention nutrition, eating too much of this preservative food will damage the body. Keiji Nishikawa, who has always been afraid of death, has been enjoying freshly burned naval standard meals since he came to the Truk station, and he has suffered this crime.

Keiji Nishikawa suddenly remembered that he still had a device that he could communicate with - the wireless communicator that the battleship Suhime had left for him. It looks like a small, single-sided earcup made of aluminum alloy with a hook that can be hung on the ear.

Since the assassination of Truk's station, this communicator has been hidden under his bed, and this time he hastily escaped and took it with him. He has a problem with several old friends who have become non-human creatures, especially the fact that he secretly led them to "send them to death" with the organization, which was also known to Long Xing of Huakaiyuan. He wouldn't believe what the battleship Suhime said that he had forgiven him. Hyozaburo Mito was a tolerant person in his life, but Hanakaiin Ryuxing is different, that genius will definitely torture him in various ways, just like the other party used to abuse the wild dogs in the academy.

Keiji Nishikawa hesitated again and again and pressed the start button on it, he didn't want to die, so in order to have one more way back, he planned to contact his old friends to see if they were willing to save his life, it was better to be tortured by the dragon apricot of the flower courtyard than to die in the Truk station. And Keiji Nishikawa felt that when the time came, he would kowtow and beg for mercy, and others would also think of the old love and say good things.

As soon as the wireless headset is activated, the LED light on it flashes immediately, indicating that it is connecting to the call channel of the deep sea perch. Keiji Nishikawa had never seen a small neon-like light bulb on the communicator that changes color, and the shape was very avant-garde, and he didn't feel uncomfortable wearing it on his left ear.

Just as he wondered how to use the communicator, which only had one activation button, a light screen appeared in front of him, the size of a hand mirror, through which his hand could pass and zoom in and out with his simple gestures. With his knowledge, he couldn't understand the principle of this technology, and he wouldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, or if someone had taken a picture to show him.

The interface was in Japanese, and he could easily find the name of the battleship Suhime, and when he touched it, the screen shrank into a sidebar.

There was a sound in the communicator, and soon the languid voice of a mature woman could be heard. "Hey, Xihe-kun? What's the matter with me during your lunch break? ”

The battleship Suhime didn't seem to wake up yet, and there was a sound of yawning. "Keep the headset on in the future, this thing is enough for you to use for half a year, and when it runs out, I will send my subordinates to send you a new one." After a few months, you suddenly started calling me, don't you feel rude? ”

"I ...... It felt like I was cornered, and Nagato knew I was working for an organization, and she was ready to arrest me. In the hands of a woman from a wealthy samurai family, I'm sure I'll die. ”

"What are you talking about? Inexplicably, how about going to talk about it in detail? Take your time, although I am in the waters around Australia, you can still do it by informing you of the nearest submarine rescue. Battleship Suhime let the pet "Dyson" next to him lean over and rub his cheek, and said to the person on the other side of the headset, "What is Nagato afraid of?" It's just my men's defeat. ”

Comforted by the battleship Suhime, Keiji Nishikawa explained what had happened. He insisted that he was likely to die at the Truk station, and he couldn't sit still.

"But I heard that Nagato just wanted to test you, although I don't understand Nagato's character, but I can sit firmly in the leader of the navy for more than 20 years, no matter how I think about it, I won't be difficult for you for such a trivial matter as intelligence leakage."

"You don't understand the current situation! I'm dying! Dying, you know? "Keiji Nishikawa is agitated again, and he urgently needs to escape." I thought you could help me, but it turned out to be a lively attitude! Are you glad I'm dead? ”

Keiji Nishikawa vented his emotions on the other end of the wireless headset, then took off the headset and threw it aside.

"It's all bastards! Enough to drive me to death? Damn it! Damn it!!! ”

He kicked away the canned vegetables on the ground, probably not enough to catch up with him, stepped on it a few times, and then kicked it hard into the grass.

As night wore on, Keiji Nishikawa's mental state became worse and worse, and he was terrified when he remembered Nagato and Tatsuda's words to him today.

――――

"Did you find it?"

"Nope. However, according to the guards of the officer's quarters, he went to the homes of nearby natives to treat the sick. But Long Tian reported back to the natives just now, and there was no sign of Captain Xihe. "Before Tianlong came, Long Tian was searching in the village of the natives, because he suddenly brought troops into the village, and almost caused a conflict with the natives.

This kind of thing is hidden by Tenryu for the time being, and if it angers Nagato, Keiji Nishikawa's life will be lost. She personally still has a good impression of Keiji Nishikawa, at least Keiji Nishikawa has done a good job in her own job.

"It's more dangerous to go out at night, so let Long Tian lead the team back. Too much contact with indigenous people and causing conflicts is a big deal. It was the first time Nagato encountered his subordinates "absconding in fear of crime", originally she didn't take it seriously, but just sent Ryuta over to knock and knock, but who would have thought that Keiji Nishikawa ran into the jungle.

"But what about Captain Westriver?"

Nagato's anger surged, and he slammed his fist and almost lost his strength, smashing the table. "Now we have to care more about the face of our entire garrison, the chief of the garrison with the rank of junior lieutenant is suspected of espionage and absconding, and I have enough reasons to shoot him 10 times! This matter must not be spread out, and all the people who are close to Keiji Nishikawa, as well as the guards who are on duty today, will also be gathered to me. ”

Tianlong rarely saw Nagato be so angry, although she knew that Nagato was not a person who killed innocents indiscriminately, but she was a little reluctant to capture multiple innocent team members at once.

"Lord Nagato, maybe Captain Nishikawa is just confused for a while, he will figure it out tomorrow and come back to confess."

"That's the best, that's why I'm going to gather all the people who are related to him. Once the news got out, I wanted to protect him. ”

Nagato explained slightly, and then waved his hand to signal Tenryu to hurry up. "It was carried out in secret, and it was said that an unknown poison was found in the officers' cafeteria, and some people needed to be physically examined, and the guards were asked about the specific situation. The reason for making up the other is okay, but in short, it must not be revealed that Keiji Nishikawa absconded. ”

At the same time, Keiji Nishikawa, who was asleep against the earthen wall, suddenly heard a noise, so he quickly got up and picked up a burning log from the campfire to use as a weapon.

But there were no wild beasts or anyone else around. After looking for a while, he realized that it was the wireless headset that was making a sound. Putting on the headset, Keiji Nishikawa soon heard his familiar voice.

"Blossom courtyard dragon apricot?"

"Well, Xihe-kun, don't be nervous. I heard the battleship Suhime talk about you, so I contacted you in the middle of the night. ”

Huakaiyuan Long Xing still temporarily uses dolphins as his body, and his voice is mechanically simulated, which is similar to the past. "Don't worry, I've notified the nearest fleet, they're on their way. Keep your connection to me open, and I'll let them take you out of Truk Residence. ”

This is what Keiji Nishikawa wants to hear the most, whether it is a regular transport ship or a non-human deep-sea fleet, as long as he can escape, he can accept it. "How long will it take?"

"2 hours. I'm sending you an ultrasound to ward off the beasts, and your wireless headset will be able to avoid the dangers of the jungle. ”

Although Keiji Nishikawa couldn't understand what the other party described, he saw a light screen appear in front of him, so he clicked on it according to the Japanese prompts. "Hua Kaiyuanjun, you are really the most reliable, and all the details have been taken into account by you first. I'll go to the coast now. ”

"You can keep wild beasts away, but be careful. When you get to the coast, you just have to wait. The wireless headset has a positioning function. ”

Keiji Nishikawa didn't understand what a "location function" was, but it sounded like he was able to know his specific location. Soaked in kerosene with strips of clothing cloth, Keiji Nishikawa made an improvised torch and cautiously left the abandoned warehouse and walked in the direction of the coast.

As long as you walk two kilometers to the coast and escape with a mysterious black creature, the more Keiji Nishikawa thinks about it, the more lucky he feels. Sure enough, in the end, his old friends were reliable, especially Long Xing of Huakaiyuan, he was worried that the other party would settle accounts with him, but now it seems that it is just his personal hysterical idea, and he spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

[I...... How is it falling? 】

Keiji Nishikawa, who had fallen into the trap, came back to his senses from a strange trance, and all that was left in front of him was the spiked wooden stakes. He couldn't hear the mocking laughter anymore, and there was no chance of surviving the stake that pierced multiple organs, including the heart. Why did he see the beast trap on the ground? He himself didn't think of the reason until he lost his breath.

"Hello? Xihe-kun? What happened to you? Can't talk back? Already...... Dead? ”
