The information received by Haruru Shirakawa and Shizune Nishio came from the Ministry of Anomalies.

The content of the message is a statement that all members above the team leader will be called up in the next few days and then jointly carry out the mission.

As for the information that Shirakawa Harushi received, it gave him a choice.

As soon as Harukawa Harukawa saw this information, he immediately thought of the recent disappearance case that happened in Saitama Prefecture.

I'm afraid that this call-up is precisely for this matter!

——————————

A few days ago.

Saitama Prefecture.

Hidenan Yangno led his team members to a supermarket.

"Soma-kun, is that what you disappeared here?"

Hino Hidenan's face was solemn, with a solemn look on his little face.

Compared to when he first came to Saitama Prefecture, Hidenan's appearance has changed a lot.

It can be clearly seen that his expression is much haggard.

The bags under the eyes are a little obvious, the face is even a little puffy, and a few pimples have popped up.

This is a period of excessive stress, coupled with not getting enough rest, endocrine disorders.

In the end, such a state was presented.

Even though Hino Hidenan is still wearing women's clothes, it can be clearly seen that the makeup on his face is obviously not as delicate and attentive as before.

This is also a natural thing, even if he wants to use makeup to show that the situation is still under his control, so as to maintain the confidence of his subordinates.

But right now, in this state of working for eighteen hours a day, Hino Hidenan really doesn't have the heart to put on makeup slowly.

In fact, from the very beginning, Hidenan Yono failed to control the situation in Saitama Prefecture.

Even the operatives of their Anomalies Department are working very hard to find the missing.

And carefully reasoning and guessing the reason for their disappearance.

To that end, they have visited the locations where nearly 100 missing people have disappeared.

However, the conclusions reached through the [Type 2] shocked every member.

In the places where so many missing people have disappeared, only a very small number of them have been found to have strange shadows!

And even these weirdness, it is basically certain that there is no connection with the disappearance case.

It's just that they were unlucky and innocently bumped into it.

The members of the Anomalies had worked so hard for so long to clean up some inconsequential weirdness.

To a certain extent, it has purified the strange environment of Saitama Prefecture.

However, this does not help the disappearance case that is happening right now!

Yes, Hino Hidenan's efforts for so long have basically been all in vain.

They have not been able to reduce the increase in the number of missing people, nor have they been able to find a single missing person.

Not even a single body was found.

Even when support from the headquarters of the Tokyo Anomalies arrived, they still didn't know what to do.

Because there is not the slightest coherent clue in this whole case.

There are so many missing people, men and women, old and young, people of all professions.

It is basically impossible to find any common connection in their identity.

Coupled with the weird factor, it is temporarily ruled out.

In other words, with their current means, it is not possible to observe what kind of existence is going on.

It's a clueless case!

When anyone faces this situation, I am afraid that a strong sense of powerlessness will inevitably emerge in their hearts.

It's like ordinary mortals, fighting against some kind of creature that is long beyond their knowledge.

Confused.

There is not the slightest breakthrough to be found.

If this situation continues, I'm afraid there is no one who will not despair, right?

On the other hand, the current Yono Hidenan and others are still able to maintain such a positive state and not completely give up on themselves.

It's already their willpower that is very amazing.

And just two or three days ago, a case occurred, which made the current situation slide into an even worse abyss.

A member of the anomaly department called the "Soma Universe" was also judged to be missing.

This is the first case in Saitama Prefecture in which a member of the Special Division has disappeared.

The final location where the Soma Universe mobile phone signal appeared was in this supermarket.

Today's supermarkets are deserted.

It's not because Hidenan Yono and the others cleared the place.

It's because Saitama Prefecture is such a ghost at the moment!

Saitama Prefecture itself is not a large prefecture in Japan, and its population is not very large.

After seeing the news about the disappearance almost every day, the residents of Saitama Prefecture were also in a state of panic.

They don't even want to go out if it's not necessary.

I chose to stock up on a lot of food at home.

After all, in the opinion of ordinary people, the home is always much safer.

Even if it is a rare outing, it is almost impossible to go out alone in pairs.

After all, in the ordinary normal people want to come.

They would never think of any strange existence, and even if they heard about the rumors, they wouldn't believe it too much.

People only think that there is a large terrorist Z weaving in Saitama Prefecture, and it has been carrying out criminal acts.

So while scolding ZF and the police for their incompetence, they are much more cowardly in their usual lives.

On the other hand, many young people feel that Saitama Prefecture is not safe, and they also choose to temporarily flee the city to which they belong, intending to see the development of the situation before taking the next step.

It's just that such measures obviously didn't have much effect, and the number of people who disappeared every day was still so high.

In addition, several people have disappeared together.

However, the deserted streets also helped Hino Hidenan and them to investigate.

"You are ....."

The owner of the supermarket received the news and quickly rushed over.

After all, the arrival of so many people wearing the same uniform is very imposing from any point of view.

The clerk in the store is also

"Ministry of National Specificity."

Hidenan Yono showed him his credentials with ease.

"Please look at the footage of March 12th."

"Oh, okay."

The boss looked at the document and was stunned, but he nodded quickly and asked the employee to call up the video from this time.

Although the supermarket was empty, there were still a few customers present.

They also looked at Hino Hidenan and the others with surprised eyes.

Although people did not hear the phrase "National Special Department" that Hidenan Yono said to the supermarket owner, it was such a special uniform.

There are also some rumors that have been circulating on the Internet recently, which can't help but make them think a little too much.

Yes, during this time on the Internet, especially in this part of Saitama Prefecture, some rumors about the special departments of the state have also faintly appeared.

After all, during this time, the members of the Anomalies Department undoubtedly contacted the families of many missing people in order to find more information and evidence.

Even if they have bluntly warned against it, don't talk about it.

But there will always be some good deeds that can't help but spread - there are many people on the Internet who are idle and have eaten too much.

Coupled with the fact that they often act like this, there is already some speculation that they are the special departments of the state.

It is specifically to solve this major disappearance case, which is likely to be a once-in-a-century occurrence.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "once-in-a-century encounter".

Looking at various countries in the world, I am afraid that there has never been such a strange and vicious disappearance, right?

If it weren't for the fact that the people didn't know how serious the matter was, it would be too much to say that it happened once in a thousand years.

It's just a comment on this department on the Internet, but it's not much better.

The reason is also very simple, Japan is not a country like a country that grows flowers, and the level of trust in ZF is far from so high.

In addition, even with the appearance of a special department, the current situation of disappearance has not been solved!

It's not getting better at all.

In this way, whoever cares whether they are special departments or not, the people will naturally scold them and not give them any affection.

It has its own country (meow) love here.

So now, the customers passing by didn't give Hino Hidenan much of a good look.

There was also some yin and yang talking weirdly.

"They..... Those are the people, right? ”

"It doesn't look any different."

"People say they're special, isn't that special? It's like saying that the situation is under control, but in fact, the son of a friend of mine disappeared the day before yesterday! ”

"I wish they could have a snack!"

Hearing these people's conversations, the expressions on the faces of the members of the Anomalies became quite ugly.

Where are they not paying attention!

During this time, they all got up early and ran from one end of Saitama Prefecture to another, and the workload was much greater than when they were in Tokyo, and they were really tired and half dead.

And now, even his own colleagues are in a dangerous situation because of this, and their fate is uncertain.

But from these people's mouths, they still get such evaluations, how can this not make them resentful.

There are even quite a few people who have the idea of giving up.

Fortunately, they can still restrain themselves, even if they are wronged and angry, they haven't done anything excessive.

"I know everybody's tired right now, and of course they're angry."

And here is Hidenan Yono spoke.

"The vast majority of people in the world are not smart people, they prefer to believe what they think is right."

"However, the reason why we joined the Department of Anomalous Beings is not to protect them, but to prevent the people we value from being harmed by the same danger in the future!"

"So, gentlemen, come on!"

Hidenan Yono inspired his colleagues beside him.

Then he continued to look at the footage from the surveillance video.

It's March 12, 6:11 p.m.

The members of the Anomalies had a short period of free time that day, not long, only 20 minutes - they weren't iron men, and they still had some time to rest.

In the picture, it is a corner of the supermarket.

In the middle of the two rows of shelves, a man walked.

It is one of the members of Yono Hidenan's team, Soma Universe.

He was just visiting the supermarket, not on a search mission.

He walked and walked......

Suddenly, the figure on the screen suddenly disappeared.

Without the slightest warning, just a short frame of time, the Soma universe disappeared directly.

With the goods in his hand, he disappeared without a trace.

"This ......"

The team members next to them suddenly widened their eyes.

Although so many cases of disappearance have been discovered.

But it was the first time they had seen such a video that clearly recorded the entire process of disappearance!

But because it was the first time, it was even more shocking.

"How could it have disappeared so without warning......

Hino Hidenan's heart was also bitter.

"Replay, slow down, oh no, frame by frame!"

With Yono Hidenan's order, the team members began to search for the missing images of the Soma universe frame by frame.

Finally, the hard work paid off.

After a while, they found the scene where he had disappeared.

The environment is still the same as before, but on this frame, the air around Soma Universe seems to be faintly distorted.

And compared with the next frame, it can be seen that the light around him seems to be a little dim.

Hino Hidenan originally thought that he might have seen it wrong, but after a careful comparison, it can be found that this situation is actually real.

But other than that, there is nothing out of the ordinary.

"Check it out here."

Subsequently, Hidenan Yono took the team members behind him to the scene of the disappearance of Soma Universe.

Since the boss didn't know about the disappearance here, let alone protect the scene here.

The goods on the shelves have also been rotated a little.

But no matter how you look at it, these are still two normal shelves, and there is nothing unusual at all.

But Hino Xiunan glanced at Xiao Shan Ming on the side.

Under the eyes, there is some tension and attention.

"Mio..... I also think it's a bit weird here. ”

Akira Koyama expressed his opinion.

Hino was walking down the aisle, and suddenly, his phone trembled.

He wanted to ignore it, and at such a critical time, the phone or something could be completely put aside.

But when he frowned, his expression couldn't help but be stunned.

The name displayed on the phone is-

Soma Universe!

A chill suddenly surged into Hino Hidenan's heart.

But he managed to control himself and not let himself lose his temper too much.

He hurriedly picked up the phone, attracting sideways glances from his colleagues around him.

The subordinates also know that Hino Hidenan is not the kind of person who will be distracted at work, and there must be other more important reasons why he will answer this call.

"Soma..... Monarch? ”

Hidenan Yangno forcibly calmed his heart and asked.

Group ..... Team Leader....."

He could tell at the first time that this was the voice that belonged to the Soma universe!

Hidenan Yono has a certain impression of everyone in the group, which is the basic quality that a team leader should have.

But at the same time, he could hear the voice of the Soma universe, which was slightly hoarse and full of weakness.

"Where are you now? Are you alright? ”

Hidenan Yono asked one after another.

Just the next moment, there was a busy sound on the phone.

"Toot-toot-"

Hino Hidenan's mood became heavy again.
