Chapter 283: 53: Line of Defense

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Sir, I know exactly."

"Hu Heimu, I believe you are not a person who likes to joke, but do you know how many people's lives are affected by the circle you drew on the map? I tell you, hundreds of thousands, millions!"

“Trying to treat such a large number of people as refugees is simply an impossible task!”

After the Anti-Demon Joint Conference ended, the first task assigned to the Special Affairs Bureau was to evacuate almost half of Tokyo's population within half a month in order to provide a battlefield that would be of no help to evil thoughts and would be easy for them to attack.

God knows how much courage Kuroki Shinzumi mustered to submit this plan to the Prime Minister.

Now that she has already paid the money, she is like a dead pig that is not afraid of sulfuric acid, so it doesn't matter to her.

"Prime Minister, this is the result of a consensus reached by all the extraordinary people. Whether we implement it or not, their plan will not change. It's just a matter of..." Kuroki Shinizumi glanced at the Chief Cabinet Secretary who had just spoken on behalf of Abe, "the number of deaths."

The Cabinet Secretary wanted to say something, but Abe raised his hand to stop him.

"Okay, I know you won't lie about this, and I've already prepared myself mentally."

"In the next half month, I will have my subordinates do their best to cooperate with your work, but we can't control everyone, and with the mobilization capabilities we have left."

Kuroki knew what he was hinting at. Someone from the right-wing group would definitely make a fuss, but given the current situation, it would be better not to leave and just wait to be buried with them.

As for the issue of mobilization capabilities, she is quite confident in Japan's long-term anti-supernatural exercises. Most of them should obey orders. As for the small number who insist on hiding, she cannot arrange a large number of personnel to find them one by one. She just hopes that those people will not regret their decision.

"That's enough, Prime Minister, we know what to do. There is one more thing." Kuroki simply said the other thing at the same time.

"Go ahead, I hope I can hold on." Abe took a deep breath and felt a little pain in his heart.

"We need to borrow a few hydrogen bombs just in case."

"."

"Prime Minister? The Prime Minister rolled his eyes! Quick, the Prime Minister is having a seizure! There are medicines in the left drawer! Prime Minister, please hold on!"

The office fell into chaos.

This minor chaos is nothing compared to the upcoming relocation of millions of people.

The next morning, before most people woke up, a cabinet spokesman made a speech, announcing that Tokyo had officially entered a state of emergency from that point on, and all non-official personnel must evacuate Chiyoda Ward, Minato Ward, Chuo Ward, Shinjuku Ward, Bunkyo Ward, and Taito Ward within ten days to prepare for the impending extraordinary catastrophe.

"Refuge? What the hell?"

“I woke up and found myself as a refugee?!”

"That's right, ma'am. A serious supernatural disaster will occur in Tokyo in the near future. Please pack up your necessary belongings and move to the shelter we provide within three days. If you have relatives or friends in other places who can provide temporary accommodation, you can also go there on your own."

The official offices in each district were crowded with people early in the morning. Everyone wanted to know what was going on. Even if they had heard the news from TV, even if all companies had stopped working, even if more than ten text messages had been sent to their mobile phones, they still wanted to get accurate answers from real people.

The staff struggled to maintain order, repeating their words and trying their best to calm people's panic.

"It's fake! It's all fake! This is a conspiracy by the Special Affairs Bureau. Even the current cabinet and His Majesty the Emperor may have been controlled by that group of hateful extraordinary people!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

A few others echoed.

Too bad most people look at them like they are fools.

Although people are panicking, they are not stupid. They point the finger at the Special Affairs Bureau so bluntly. If there is no problem here, even the aunties who only watch soap operas will not believe it.

No one would go against the Special Affairs Bureau just because of a few words of instigation from these guys. Who dares to do this? They are not afraid of meeting our countrymen, right?

Outside the official office, in a nearby hotel, Tojo Sumi, who had just returned to China, looked at the messy scene and felt a nameless anger rising.

"What's wrong with this cabinet?! They can't even control their subordinates? They just do whatever the Special Affairs Bureau says. If this continues, who is the official?!"

In the room, Abe's closest associate, Kei Muto, was also there. Upon hearing Tojo Sumi's words, he glanced at Yoshiyuki Matsui next to him.

"What Tojo-san said is so true! For the past two years, we have all lived under the shadow of the Special Affairs Bureau! You may not feel it deeply in the Southern Dynasty, but most of us here dare not confront the extraordinary. Whatever they say is the truth. Who knows what evil intentions they have? If this continues, I am afraid that one day someone will dare to ask the emperor to abdicate, and then the country will no longer exist!"

Yoshiyuki Matsui looked extremely distressed.

"Matsui is right. The Special Affairs Bureau is out of control now. They even controlled the Soul Calling Society and no longer allow us to enter to worship the heroic spirits. They said there was a supernatural disaster. Haha, it's been a month and nothing has happened. Now they want to evacuate most of Tokyo. It's clearly a step-by-step test to test the Prime Minister's obedience."

"And the Prime Minister, I have to say that he was also a person who had taken the Holy Child Pill. He actually used a heart attack as an excuse. Haha, which side do you think he is on?"

Muto Kei added quietly from the side.

The more Tojo Sumi listened, the paler her face became. It was indeed rare for someone of her age to be able to maintain her current mental state.

"The country is already in a precarious situation, Tojo-san. This is why we asked you to come back. We need your prestige to gather the families that still have loyalty in their hearts to fight against the tough attitude of the Special Affairs Bureau! As long as you give the order, we will do our best to assist you."

With just one sentence, Kei Muto praised Tojo Sumi to great heights.

Tojo seemed to remember his father in a trance, and a sense of heavy responsibility arose spontaneously.

"Where's Minhui? The Tojo family is under his management now, why didn't he come?" Sumi managed to calm herself down and asked about her nephew who had lost contact with her for a long time.

Muto and Matsui looked at each other and sighed exaggeratedly.

"Tojo Toshiki, he was cowardly and didn't dare to face the Special Affairs Bureau directly. Inviting you back was a secret plan between the two of us. Otherwise, if he knew about it, he would probably object again." Matsui said with a worried look on his face.

Tojo Sumi's face changed: "Didn't he even go to the Soul Calling Society to pay homage?!"

"As far as we know, he rarely goes to the spiritualist society."

"Unfilial! Disloyal! Unfaithful! You have failed the Emperor's grace! You are truly a disgrace to our Tojo Family! I have agreed to what you said. I know what you want. You just want a leader to take the blame. I will take the blame for you!"

Tojo Sumi had never felt so high-spirited, free and generous in his life.

The shield was found, and next Muto Kei turned his attention to Matsui.

"Then, Tojo-san, Matsui will be in charge of following you from now on to inform you of the progress of the matter. Next, I will contact all the loyal people to protest against the barbaric behavior of the Special Affairs Bureau."

As for the person, Muto Kei was already prepared and was just waiting for Tojo Sumi's nod.

"As soon as possible, I hope to liberate the Soul Calling Society soon and pay tribute to the millions of heroes. It will be our base to fight against the gang of scoundrels in the Special Affairs Bureau." Tojo Sumi obviously has a special liking for the Soul Calling Society. After all, her father is also enshrined there.

After seeing the two off, Tojo Sumi excitedly rummaged through his luggage and took out a sword box.

He gently opened the box and stroked the scabbard with his wrinkled hands. "Father, I will definitely be able to clear your wrongs and make the Tojo family great again!"

The chaos seemed to have no end and lasted for several days and nights.

All official personnel, whether civilian or frontline, have cancelled their vacations and are all busy. Even the Self-Defense Forces have entered the city and are arresting the troublemakers one by one.

"Chief, there are still some people sitting in protest, should we arrest them too?"

"Sit still. Haha."

There is no doubt that this form of protest is aimed at them, and there is definitely someone behind it.

"Then let them sit down and deal with those who are causing trouble first. Also, have the Self-Defense Forces speed up their work and stop slacking off. The final line of defense concerns their own lives. If necessary, you can ask Mr. Abdul to assist them in their work."

Based on the information that the evil society was spreading with the Spirit Summoning Society as the core, the Special Affairs Bureau and the official authorities discussed and decided to form three lines of defense.

The first line of defense is the reconnaissance line, which is composed of the backbone forces of various forces. It is deployed on the outskirts of the Soul Summoning Society and is responsible for testing the strength of the evil spirits. If they can be dealt with, the main force deployed on the second line of defense will advance quickly and work together to suppress the evil spirits near the Soul Summoning Society.

The second line of defense is the main line of defense. If the first line of defense finds that the evil demons are not something they can resist, they will simply abandon the reconnaissance line of defense and retreat to the second main line of defense to assist the main force in blocking the evil demons.

The third line is the fire defense line, which is composed of the assembled Self-Defense Forces to form a fire encirclement. According to the guidance of the internal battle, fire strikes are carried out. At the same time, this is also the final line of defense. Once this line of defense collapses, I am afraid that the entire Tokyo and even Japan will fall.

The combat command center will be arranged on the fleet in Tokyo Bay, and the Self-Defense Forces will conduct command from there.

At the same time, a unit left here by Richie will assist the Self-Defense Forces and provide necessary defensive firepower.

"Really? It makes me a little nervous." As he dealt with reports one after another, Kuroki Shinizumi nervously put down his pen and calmed his breathing.

She was just trying to show off; in reality, she was extremely nervous.

"Director, a group of protesters have appeared in the Spirit Calling Society, demanding that the society be opened, otherwise they will sit in protest." The deputy chief of intelligence reported.

"Leader?"

"It's Tojo Sumi, who recently returned to Japan, and Matsui Yoshiyuki."

"Is Noguchi setting up a defense line there?"

"Yes."

"Then let him handle it. I'm so busy!" Thinking of the fact that Noguchi was able to set up defenses outside while she had to stay in the bureau to deal with the mountains of affairs, she felt so angry that she simply threw this trivial matter to Noguchi.

That’s right, to her, these protests are basically trivial matters. After all, this is not a peaceful time, it’s an emergency!
The kind where you won't get any compensation even if you're killed.

If she was really pissed off, she would pull out the leaders and give them a few beatings, and the rest would just disperse.

"I'll take care of it, right?"

"Uh, yes, Chief Kuroki said Chief Noguchi would definitely handle it in a measured way."

"She cursed me behind my back?"

"No! Absolutely not!"

Noguchi hung up the phone and looked at the "protesting crowd" indifferently.

They were wearing old military uniforms, waving Japanese flags, and shouting wildly.

"God punish the traitors! God punish the traitors!"

"The Soul Summoning Society is home to millions of heroes, how could there be a demon here? Such a clumsy lie was able to force the official to agree. The extraordinary people in the Special Affairs Bureau must have used despicable means! If the big guys don't stand up, we little people also have a strong patriotic heart!"

"If the extraordinary people want to kill, let them start with me! I am not afraid of such evil means. I will use my blood to awaken the common people!"

"My imperial lineage will be passed down for a thousand generations~until it reaches eight thousand generations~until the small stone becomes a huge rock~until the huge rock grows moss~"

When they were excited, dozens of people sang "Kimi no Yo" together, and at first glance it really looked like the real thing.

"Who is that?" Noguchi pointed at the old woman who was obviously surrounded and protected.

Following him was the slacker Fengchuan Shangqing, who knew this person.

"I'll ask and be back soon!"

After saying this, he entered the void and disappeared.

But he reappeared within a few minutes, and no one knew where he got the information.

"That woman's name is Tojo Sumi. She is the daughter of Tojo from inside. She had been staying in the Southern Dynasty and only came back recently."

After listening to Toyokawa's explanation, Noguchi understood what was going on.

The right wing put forward a target to see if the Special Affairs Bureau had the courage to fire the shot.

But Noguchi didn't think they needed to be the bad guy.

He had been curious for a long time.

The evil spirit that had been summoning the necromancer at the beginning clearly still had a trace of obsession and wisdom left.

If Miki Inagaki forces all the evil out of the underground, will those intelligent evil spirits still take action after seeing their loved ones?
He thought the question was worth experimenting with.

Coincidentally, these experiments would not make him feel guilty.

"Don't you have nothing to do? Then watch these people and try not to let them leave." Noguchi patted Toyokawa's shoulder.

Fengchuan was cheered up. Is there such a good thing?

The only reason he has nothing to do for the time being is because he hasn't been assigned a job yet. Now all he has to do is watch people. There is nothing easier than this.

"Boss, what you said about not letting them leave includes until the incident starts?" Fengchuan Duo asked.

"Do you feel sorry for their death?"

"Ugh good grief."

Toyokawa understood the situation thoroughly and quickly found a good place to stay. He also made a phone call to chat with Hoshino Nanako and asked her to pay more attention to safety.
