Zongman: Hong Kong's black ceiling but autistic, what should I do?

The S1999 flew rapidly through the enemy's camp, causing violent explosions wherever it passed.

"boom--"

"Boom - boom -"

Everyone in the camp, friend or foe, stopped what they were doing, looked at the approaching explosion, and quickly ran in the opposite direction.

"What the hell! Aren't they trying to capture Captain Scar? What's going on with this series of explosions?"

"The devil knows!"

...

"Vocal, who blew up the other side's supply point? Why did they blow up so many of them?!"

"They're coming towards us, not distinguishing friend from foe! Run, run!"

...

The addition of S1999 quickly changed the direction of the originally difficult battle.

The team members, who were originally ready to give up struggling in despair because they were surrounded by the enemy, saw the enemy fleeing to avoid the impending explosion, and they all supported each other and left quickly.

Soon after, the main frontline forces arrived.

Looking at the enemy camp that had completely turned into ruins before them, if the members of the third elite team had not been supporting each other as they walked out of the ruins, the main force would have thought that this was the site of an old battle.

Tachihara Masaaki looked at the main force who were greeting the team members, and turned to look at S1999 who was walking at the end.

[Almost one person killed his way through the entire camp...]

The clothes on S1999 were more tattered than when he first arrived at the camp, especially the bloodstain on his chest had begun to turn black. It was obvious that after S1999 separated from Tachihara Masaaki and the others, he had attempted suicide many times like before in order to repair his wounds.

For some reason, seeing S1999 walking silently at the end of the team, with soldiers in groups of two or three chatting and talking about their mission success, Tachihara Masaaki felt that S1999 was a bit pitiful.

"Why are you looking at the big sister? Did the beautiful rescue of the hero just now conquer your heart? Tachihara Masaaki, I tell you, this is not okay. The big sister is so young, you can't..."

While supporting Masaaki Tachihara and following the main force, Yamaguchi Yota kept an eye on Masaaki Tachihara's gaze.

"...I've said it before, I don't have any thoughts about her. Not everyone has a dirty mind like Youta." Tachihara Masaaki responded speechlessly.

"I'm not dirty! Then why are you staring at our big sister?"

"I just feel like...she seems to have always been alone..."

"Yeah, after all, Big Sister is so powerful that she can wipe out an entire camp by herself!"

Masaaki Tachihara listened to the unconcerned Yamaguchi Yōta praising S1999, then retracted his gaze and looked into the distance.

[An immortal supernatural being...?]

...

It was already late at night when the large force finally returned to the camp. The success of this operation was of great significance, symbolizing that the National Defense Force's battle on Changan Island had finally shifted from passive defense to active offense. This was a milestone successful battle!

As a reward for the great success of the battle, the commander decided to give the soldiers a brief celebration.

The logistics department received advance notice and had already prepared a celebration banquet that was "abnormally sumptuous" for the soldiers of Chang'an Island. The soldiers were rarely allowed to get drunk at the celebration banquet.

"You guys! Drink as much as you want, but don't let it affect tomorrow's training!"

"Yes, sir~hiccup~"

...

"By the way, can we still see the little princess tonight?"

"Little princess? Call me Big Sister!"

"Hey, I was the one who called her Big Sister, why are you guys calling her Big Sister too? Zhengqiu, were you the one who told others about my unique name for Big Sister?"

"I wouldn't do something as childish as you, Youta!"

"So will the big sister still wear a skirt today...Yes...No...Yes...No..."

"Ah, stop pulling it, you should pull the flowers, why are you pulling my hair!"

"Isn't it that I can't find the flowers?"

"Then you pick your own!"

...

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"what? What?"

"The 'princess' before was a monster that absorbed the life force of others."

"Is it true? How do you say it?"

"My friend's nephew's nephew's second aunt's neighbor's son is in the third elite team. When he came back and talked to my friend, he let it slip..."

"What? Tell me now!"

"Today, when the 'Princess' went to support the Third Elite Squad, she committed suicide in front of the enemy, but she was able to be resurrected. After resurrection, all the enemies were gone!"

"Vocal, seriously? Are you saying that she absorbs the enemy's life into herself? Will that absorb our life?!"

"It's hard to say. I'm only telling you this. Don't tell anyone else. After all, that monster is very popular with the higher-ups now!"

"Hey, I know that. Corporal Da Gao had a quarrel with the logistics department over her before. I saw it with my own eyes. It was a fierce quarrel!"

"Ahhh, is this true?"

"Could it be just a supernatural power? Don't make such a fuss."

"Even if it's a supernatural power, can you guarantee that it won't absorb our life force? What if the angel is not around and the monster's supernatural power goes wild and absorbs our vitality? We will still die! The angel can't save us!"

"...Indeed...we should stay away from it..."

...

"Hey, have you heard that? That monster can absorb other people's lives!"

"? So awesome? Where did you hear that?"

"Hey, the son of my friend's friend's friend's nephew's second aunt's neighbor is in the Third Elite Team. I saw it with my own eyes. How could it be fake?"

"You are so distantly related, don't spread rumors~"

"Hey, I can testify to that. I saw her on the front line before. It was the first day she arrived. The scene was bloody... Gululu Gululu..."

"Why is it so bloody? Keep talking and stop drinking!"

"Tsk tsk, I was watching her from afar and was wondering why a little girl suddenly appeared on the battlefield. She fell to the ground after being shot by the enemy. I wanted to keep watching and suddenly she stood up with twisted limbs like a zombie. Then all the enemies around her suddenly had big holes in their chests!"

"what--!"

“How cruel!”

"Hey, I've seen that, too—"

...

"Ah, isn't this an angel? Come on, let's have a drink together!"

"Idiot, the angel is still underage! Doctor Yosano, excuse me, I'm going to take him away right now!"

...

Yosano Akiko listened to the drunken talk of the people around her, silently disdaining these drunken men in her heart. Thinking of being called an angel just now, she secretly complained in her heart——

[Ever since I was embarrassed when I heard that man call me "angel" in the medical room during the day, everyone has started calling me "angel". It's okay to hear this name once or twice, but I don't feel embarrassed when I hear it called so many times. Are they all suffering from chuunibyou?!]

[Damn it, it's all that man's fault. His name is Tachihara Masaaki, right? I'll remember him! For the sake of the butterfly, I'll forgive him for calling me "angel", but he actually said something to Dr. Mori that I couldn't understand. Damn it... I really want to know what they were talking about! ]

Yosano Akiko touched the metal butterfly in her hair, leaned against the railing with her hands supporting her face, looked up at the sky, and her thoughts returned to the medical room at noon.

...

10 hours ago, medical room.

After Mori Ogai and Yosano Akiko performed their special ability "Please Don't Die" in the medical room, the soldiers were very excited.

“No matter how many times I’ve seen it, I still think Yosano-chan’s [Please Don’t Die] is amazing~”

"What do you know? This is a miracle!"

"It's just a supernatural power, a miracle is too exaggerated..."

"Every time I see it, I think Dr. Yosano's butterflies are so beautiful..."

"It's a pity that the supernatural power dissipated when it ended..."

"Dr. Yosano, thank you so much..."

"It's a pity... Dashan still can't come back... Wuuuuuu..."

...

Yosano Akiko ignored the conversation she heard several times a day and walked straight into the medical room. She looked at the man leaning against the wall and reading a book and said:

"I started reading novels as soon as I found my life."

Tachihara Masaaki heard what Yosano Akiko said, looked at the book in his hand, and replied with a smile: "This is not a novel, it's a collection of poems."

"I'm telling you, I don't ask you to thank me with tears in your eyes, but now that you've recovered, don't you have the courage to return to the battlefield as soon as possible? The battle is not over yet!"

Yes, after the large force successfully captured the enemy camp, the commander decided to pursue the victory and continue to capture the escaped fish, while the members of the third elite team were sent back to the base for treatment because of their serious injuries.

"Of course I want to thank you."

As he spoke, Tachihara Masaaki closed the poetry collection in his hand.

"So, I give this to you—"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tachihara Masaaki opened the poetry collection in his hand, and a butterfly that looked like the glowing butterfly that appeared when Yosano Akiko used her supernatural power flapped its blue wings and flew out of the book.

"My butterfly..."

The butterfly flew in front of Yosano Akiko for a moment, as if thanking her, or as if confirming its owner. Yosano Akiko watched the butterfly fly towards her hair, and finally landed on the hair beside her ear.

Yosano Akiko opened her eyes wide and was startled when she saw the butterfly that landed on her hair suddenly turned into metal.

"No, this is... metal..."

"Thank you, Miss Angel."

Hearing Tachihara Masaaki's words of thanks, Yosano Akiko blushed immediately.

"Angel...Angel!"

Mori Ogai on the side: ...

"But how did you do that just now? Is it your special ability?"

Yosano touched the metal butterfly on his head to confirm that it was not an illusion.

"It's not a great ability. It's not like your ability that can change the world..."

Masaaki Tachihara said to Yosano with a wry smile, thinking about how he had just become exhausted due to excessive use of his supernatural powers on the battlefield and ended up becoming a burden to Yamaguchi Yota.

"I changed the world? How is that possible?" Yosano Akiko thought that Tachihara Masaaki was just exaggerating to coax her like everyone else.

"Although I am only a soldier, there are some things I understand—"

Tachihara Masaaki paused.

"[Supernaturalism], [Supernatural Warfare] invented by European powers is changing the concept of war. In order not to be defeated, we must quickly prove the value of this concept to the higher-ups. That's why Chief Mori recruited you into the army. S1999 must have come here for this reason as well."

Tachihara Masaaki raised his head, looked at the person behind Yosano Akiko, and said:

"That's right, Chief Mori."

"You have read the paper I submitted on the Undead Legion."

Mori Ogai looked directly at Tachihara Masaaki.

"what are you guys saying?"

Yosano Akiko didn't understand what the two people in front of her were talking about and was eager to understand what was going on.

"That should be a confidential document." Mori Ogai did not respond to Yosano Akiko's words, but spoke to himself.

"What upper level? What [Undead Legion]? I just came here to rescue people!" Yosano Akiko vaguely questioned the real reason why she came here.

Tachihara Masaaki looked at Yosano Akiko's somewhat collapsed expression and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Mori Ogai -

"Let's go, Yosano, the next injured person is waiting. Alice, give me the next case."

"Yes, master." The blonde Alice, who was wearing a maid outfit, stopped checking the recovery of the wounded, stood up and answered obediently.

...

My thoughts gradually return to the present.

[Dr. Mori will definitely not tell me anything about the [Superpower War] anymore. I'd better go to Tachihara Masaaki to ask if I can get any useful information.]

Thinking of this, Yosano Akiko began to look for Masaaki Tachihara in the camp. Finally, she found Masaaki Tachihara, Yota Yamaguchi and...S1999 in a remote corner.
