Re:Zero - Starting Life in Chaos.

On the highway back to Dongdu, in a large black nine-seater commercial vehicle.

Beichen sat in the passenger seat, listening to everyone's reports while sorting out the information he had obtained from the memories of the two attackers.

After Hayasaka finished telling their story, he spoke up and shared some information about the assassination.

The target of this attack was indeed Kaguya.

Not only that, the people behind the scenes also did a lot of research on the characteristics of the team members.

Based on Yukinoshita's principles of doing things, it is inferred that after completing the mission, the team will disperse to clean up the deformed frogs.

Then, based on Beichen's combat habits, they sent in beast masters, intending to win by sheer numbers. If they could kill, they would kill. If they couldn't kill, they would try to delay the enemy.

The same principle applies to how you treat other people.

As for Shinomiya and Hayasaka, who were given special attention, it went without saying that they would be directly controlled, and then the person with the highest level of cultivation would perform his ultimate move to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

Even because of Kato's characteristics, the group of killers sent to them died too quickly and failed to stop Joel.

But after all, Joel was a step too slow, and the arrow was shot out just as she was about to arrive.

Under normal circumstances, they should be able to succeed.

But in the end they still failed.

It can only be said that it is not war's fault. If you want to blame someone, blame Beichen for being too buggy.

Not only could he kill hundreds of strange beasts in an instant, he could also teleport to Kaguya's side and block the fatal blow for her.

After listening to Beichen's explanation, the girls fell silent. After all, it was not a pleasant feeling to be plotted against.

Among them, Yukinoshita's expression was particularly ugly.

Although these people's purpose was to assassinate Kaguya, she was the one who put her face into the bush and started the fight physically.

How could she feel better?

It was only because Beichen was capable enough to put out fires everywhere, otherwise how could she face her teammates?

After a moment's silence, Yukinoshita slowly spoke and apologized to the girls in the car.

"Everyone, I'm sorry. It's all because of me that you're all in danger."

"Please let me bear the subsequent treatment costs."

Hearing this, the girls looked at each other and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't need it.

As extraordinary beings, getting injured is commonplace, and they had no intention of blaming Yukinoshita at all. After all, they had agreed with Yukinoshita's proposal at the time.

"Yukinoshita-san, this is not your fault."

"It was me who instigated the assassination, and it was also me who gave the order to disperse. To be honest, I should take full responsibility." Kaguya said.

"Being assassinated was not what Shinomiya wanted, and dispersing to eliminate the deformed frogs was the best solution at the time."

"But this is all based on my insistence on clearing out the enemy." Yukinoshita clenched her fists as she spoke. "If I hadn't argued again and again, the team would have returned as planned. Then even if we were to encounter an assassination later, at least we'd all be together. With the help of the captain and Mr. Yoel, we shouldn't be in any trouble."

"But I..."

Yukinoshita was in a very low mood.

The principle of perfection that I have adhered to for many years has not only failed to help others, but has been exploited by people with ulterior motives, causing harm to my companions.

The kindness in her heart made Yukinoshita feel extremely guilty, and she even began to doubt herself.

Looking at the silent Yukinoshita, Kaguya didn't know what to say. It would be untenable for her to try to persuade the other party from her perspective.

He simply shut his mouth and looked at Beichen.

Kaguya felt that the other people in the team were also victims, and their words might make Yukinoshita feel even more guilty.

It would be fine if it was Joel, but he actually tore the captain's clothes. He doesn't look like a reliable person.

At times like this, we naturally have to rely on the handsome and wise Beichen to step forward.

Through the rearview mirror, Beichen noticed Kaguya's gaze and nodded in response.

After all, he is the captain now, and it is impossible for him to watch his teammates’ morale broken.

"Under the snow." Beichen called out.

"Yeah." Yukinoshita responded hesitantly.

"Do you think that everyone's injuries were caused by you?"

"Isn't it?"

"Not all of them." Beichen shook his head, "Even if it wasn't you, there must be someone else who was the trigger."

"From what I know, the mastermind behind this has envisioned several scenarios."

"For example, if you hadn't proposed a plan to wipe out the enemy, they would have tried to make Busujima go berserk to contain me. Then they would have taken the opportunity to kidnap Fennel and lure away Yoel. Then, under the pretext of protecting Kaguya, they would have controlled the enemy and launched a suicide attack."

Hearing this, Yukinoshita was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said somewhat disappointedly:

"But in the end, I was the first one to fall into their trap, wasn't I?"

"That's true." Beichen nodded, agreeing with her.

It’s not that Yukinoshita made any big mistake.

All I can say is that she is too easy to be targeted.

After all, Yukinoshita is sometimes stubborn, and stubborn people are the easiest to be exploited.

"Looking at the entire operation, Yoel and I were both responsible for failing to supervise, while Sigong failed to judge people. You are just an extra at best."

“The responsibility is not heavy, but we still need to be vigilant.”

"I understand." Yukinoshita nodded heavily.

Seeing this, Beichen retracted his gaze, looked out the window and continued:

"Yukinoshita-san, your persistence and kindness are all true."

"But you are too obvious and can be easily taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives."

"I should have reminded you about this, about the cat abuse incident last time."

Hearing Beichen suddenly mention the cat abuse incident, Xuexia was stunned at first, and then seemed to think of something, with an unnatural expression on her face. Afraid that Beichen would see the clues, she quickly lowered her head.

“I…I know.”

Although her movements were quick, Kato who was standing beside her could still see them clearly.

The girl narrowed her eyes immediately, looked at Beichen, then at Xueshita, wondering what she was thinking.

"I told you last time that others might set traps for you based on your characteristics."

"This time, my words have come true."

"It's just that this time your teammates were injured along with you."

Hearing the sigh and helplessness in Beichen's tone, Xueshita lowered her head even more.

"I'm sorry, Captain, I..."

"Apologizing is useless. Only by admitting your mistakes and taking concrete actions can you justify the injuries suffered by the players today."

"I understand, Captain." Yukinoshita raised her head, a look of determination on her face.

Seeing the girl recover, Beichen's mouth corners slightly raised.

Yukinoshita is a strong-willed person with her own opinions.

It's okay to just say words of comfort normally, but when it comes to major issues, you have to point out her shortcomings directly and make her realize where the problem lies.

That way she can listen.

After that, Beichen commented on the performance of other girls in the team one by one.

Overall, he was quite satisfied with everyone's first performance.

The only flaw is probably the poison island Ishirataka.

But she did it to save her life, it was a helpless act.
