Chapter 288: Times Have Not Changed

"That saint is a fraud who has taken advantage of her fame. Her actions were only directed by Noguchi Takeshi. Her purpose is just as we guessed, which is to squeeze out our power. After this incident, they will completely control Tokyo and make us ordinary people become their extraordinary slaves step by step!"

The open space in front of the Tokyo Requiem Society.

Not only has the number of people not decreased, but it has increased because the Special Affairs Bureau has not stopped them, and their behavior has become more and more outrageous.

Many of them started a live broadcast, filming the old lady who was standing on a makeshift platform made of miscellaneous items and angrily denouncing the Special Affairs Bureau with righteous words.

"Since the Spiritual Conjuring Society is so important in their eyes, why was it that the Spiritual Conjuring Society was not harmed at all during the attack last night, while countless monsters appeared in areas where all the people had been evacuated? Think about it for yourself, isn't this to avoid being seen by us?"

"Some justice-minded supernatural beings secretly told me that the so-called attack last night was just a self-directed performance by the Special Affairs Bureau in order to spread panic and make everyone feel that they have no choice but to leave the danger zone they marked."

"Some people even went to question the saint, but were ruthlessly killed by her. A righteous transcendent did not die at the hands of a monster, but died at the hands of our trusted compatriots. How sad it is!"

"That unknown hero completely awakened me with his death and inspired me with his blood. Anyway, I am already old, fame and fortune are nothing to me. What I care about now is that the future of this country cannot be controlled by such a group of thugs!"

The more Fengchuan's team members listened, the more outrageous they found it, but it seemed that there was nothing they could refute. Even if you produced video evidence, with current technology, they would just insist it was fake, and no one could convince anyone else unless they encountered the monster themselves.

But it happened that there had been no polluters in the vicinity of the Spirit Summoning Society last night, and even since it was taken over by the Special Affairs Bureau, no one knew the reason.

"Captain Fengchuan, are you going to do nothing about it?" The team members found Fengchuan who was playing games and expressed their concerns. "If we don't refute it, we will all become villains."

Fengchuan didn't care at all and waved his hand: "They are just leaving their last words. Don't worry. When we evacuate, they will cry."

Seeing Fengchuan so confident, the team members gradually put their minds at ease and watched those troublemakers who were obviously organized and planned with a watch-the-show mentality.

Among the crowd, Yoshiyuki Matsui was also staring at the people from the Special Affairs Bureau nervously. He was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead and his body was ready to run away immediately if anything went wrong.

However, until Tojo Sumi finished her speech and walked down the counter amid warm applause, the people from the Special Affairs Bureau did not move, as if Tojo had not just scolded them.

"We have to keep waiting like this. Now the people are willing to help and morale is high. Why don't we do that?" Tojo Sumi's face was flushed. These days were the happiest days for her in decades. She found a feeling of being admired as an opinion leader.

"A little impatience can ruin a big plan, Tojo-san," Matsui advised. "Our more important task now is to expose the conspiracy of the Special Affairs Bureau. We can't give them a legitimate reason to expel us. Although we have the blessing of justice and heroic spirits, we are also afraid that the extraordinary will directly attack you, leaving us leaderless, which is not worth the loss."

"Anyway, according to them, next week is the deadline, and they will evacuate the Spiritual Society no matter what. When they said that, they obviously didn't expect us to show up, nor did they expect us to be so willing to sacrifice so much for the country. This is the difference in the situation."

"By that time, the lies woven by the Special Affairs Bureau will either be exposed or repackaged with an even more clumsy lie. I believe that the people will be able to see the true face of the Special Affairs Bureau."

Tojo Sumi was just impulsive for a moment and regretted what she said right after she finished speaking. Fortunately, Matsui's advice gave her a way out.

"Yes, that's right, Matsui. You see the problem very clearly. Such a great talent has not been entrusted with an important task. The current cabinet is really disappointing. Abe not only appeased and compromised with the Special Affairs Bureau, he was also weak and betrayed the emperor's grace."

"After our cause is successful, I will definitely recommend you to His Majesty the Emperor."

Matsui pretended to be overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly, but he was actually complaining in his heart: Once the Special Affairs Bureau becomes reviled, it will be time for you to be killed.

Tojo Sumi's cell phone rang, and she took a look and saw that it was Tojo Toshiki calling.

"Aunt, why do you have to come back to China and get involved in these things?"

"Minhui, you are now the head of the Tojo family. I don't blame you for not taking part in some things for the sake of the family, but the person placed in the Soul Summoning Society is your grandfather, my father, and you are still sitting there doing nothing. I am really disappointed. Is this what your father taught you?!"

"I don't want to say much about Grandpa's affairs. I only know that your return to China was planned by others. You are just a pawn in the front and can't fight for anything. The Special Affairs Bureau and Chaofan are not so easy to deal with. Times have changed, aunt."

Tojo Sumi looked at the people gathered around her, at the men shouting slogans passionately, at the young man wearing the old military uniform that was deep in her memory and the victory bandage on his forehead. In a trance, she seemed to see her once high-spirited father, smiling and waving at her.

"Sume, look, they are all warriors who died for their country, and they will also bring a bright future to Japan!"

The old scenes faded away, Shoumei slowly came out of her trance and took a deep breath:
"You are wrong, Minhui, times have never changed."

The phone hangs up.

Toshiki Tojo was silent for a long time.

He knew that his aunt had followed the same path as his grandfather.

It was as if a ghost was always haunting their family and they could not escape.

Special Affairs Bureau.

With the expiration of the ten-day evacuation period, a circle centered on Chiyoda District has completed most of the evacuation.

Evacuating tens of millions of people in ten days was a miracle that seemed impossible to Japan in the past.

But when death really came, with the mobilization of the entire country, they were able to complete the resettlement of personnel without causing too much unrest, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

The permitted TV station helicopters flew all the way from Minato Ward to Bunkyo Ward. Large areas of the once prosperous core area of ​​Tokyo were now dead silent.

Some areas were extremely lively, with a large number of buildings being converted into defense lines and countless military supplies being transported to the locations.

As the heart of Japan, such an action is almost tantamount to suicide. In the end, regardless of whether an extraordinary disaster occurs or not, the official situation of this session will not be very good.

Occasionally, people from some places refuse to leave, and the Special Affairs Bureau no longer has the energy to deal with them.

They only have five days left, and they must complete the layout of the defense line in the last five days. Those who stay behind can only wish for the best. After all, now even they, the extraordinary ones, dare not say that they will definitely survive.

".So the first line of defense is arranged as follows. No non-supernatural personnel are prepared. It is led by Saga Toshiya, with Toyokawa Kamisei as the deputy team leader. The main members are composed of personnel from the Special Affairs Bureau. Their main task is to ensure the safety of Saint Inagaki. According to Saint Inagaki, when she forces the demon out, she will temporarily lose her combat effectiveness due to excessive consumption."

"Toyokawa, you need to stay with Saint Inagaki at all times. When she loses her combat power, you need to bring her into the void as soon as possible, send her to the third line of defense, hand her over to the Supreme Prayer Group, and then have our people place her in the command center."

"The main task of this line of defense is to test the strength of the demons. Don't fight hard. Maintain close communication with the command center."

"If the demons are too powerful, we will quickly retreat to the third line of defense and serve as a mobile force. We will follow the arrangements of the headquarters and assist the army in fighting against the fish that slipped through the net, especially the demons that are immune to firepower."

"The second line of defense is the main line of defense, divided into four areas in the southeast, northwest and northeast."

"The Eastern District is mainly under the charge of the Holy Infant Society. Nakai Hayabusa will be the on-site commander. The members include the current official members of the Holy Infant Society and General Tachibana."

"Meow!" Everyone looked at the orange cat following Xiaotao and were somewhat skeptical about its fighting ability.

"President, do you have any suggestions?" After Noguchi finished speaking, he did not directly introduce the next area, but asked for Nakai Hayabusa's suggestions.

Nakai Hayabusa shook his head: "I will arrange some people to form a mobile team. You can call for support if you need it."

Many people were obviously stunned. They didn't expect that President Nakai, who was known for his coldness, would say such a thing.

Noguchi nodded. If it was the Holy Infant Society, they could indeed do this with their strength, and it would be reassuring. If the Nine Guardians and the Holy Infant appeared, that would be the best. Maybe they would be out of trouble.

"The South District will be handed over to three Paladins, two Foxmen, and William. Ms. Ye Jie will be in charge of the on-site command. We will also mobilize a group of support combat teams from the Special Affairs Bureau to assist you in the operation."

The so-called support combat team is a group of troops that are not extraordinary but have undergone combat training against extraordinary forces.

These contents had been discussed before the meeting and had basically been agreed upon. Now that they were formally proposed, no one objected.

"The west side is under the charge of the Divine Grace Warlocks of the Heavenly Node, and Mr. Li is in charge of the on-site command."

There are a lot of divine warlocks with many methods, so it is reasonable for them to defend one direction.

Mr. Li had no objection, but Cowboy, Mosaic and others who followed him were a little nervous.

"Finally, the North District is under the charge of the Special Affairs Bureau, and I, Noguchi Takeshi, will be in charge of the on-site command."

Noguchi Takeshi looked at everyone who was silent, and slowly said, "It is difficult to count the crimes committed by the Soul Summoning Society. Thank you for not caring about your own gains and losses and coming to help us."

"Although what I said may sound irresponsible, it is indeed a fact. Once the devil descends upon the world, none of us knows who the next target will be."

"This is an existence that we humans must try our best to destroy. Although the funny thing is that we are the ones who created these demons."

"We actually have no choice. If we don't deal with the demon, we will have to face the more powerful Moon Filth One and the Mother Goddess."

"I think you have already noticed that the Mother Goddess mentioned by Mother Goddess Unity is one of the moons. We don't know how terrifying it is. We only know that if "She" becomes more powerful, we will have no chance of winning."

"I hope that everyone can toast to the victory banquet."

After the meeting, everyone left with heavy hearts.

Even Xiao Tao, who was riding on Big Bear, looked a little depressed, not as chattering as usual.

"Sister Yoshimiya, I want to go see my brother, can I?" Xiaotao asked cautiously to Hirosue Yoshimiya who seemed to be thinking about something.

Guang Mo Liang Gong touched her head and said with a smile: "Of course you can. I will go with you and take Xiong Da back first."

"it is good!"

Xiong Da returned to the Huajin Hotel headquarters feeling a little aggrieved.

There were not many fewer people in Huajin Hotel at this time.

Although the news of the impending extraordinary disaster has spread throughout the world, the people in the Huajin Hotel also believe that the Holy Infant is here, and the scoundrels dare not act recklessly, so there is no need to evacuate.

Even the Special Affairs Bureau did not evacuate the area.

Noguchi and Kuroki also felt that the Holy Infant Society should be able to protect the Hananishiki Hotel, even though the hotel was located in Chiyoda District. However, it was a bit far from the Soul Calling Society and could just become a fulcrum for the eastern defense that the Holy Infant Society was responsible for.

Valley Cemetery.

The driving was smooth all the way here. Occasionally, there were a few people who were acting sneaky. They were people who were dissatisfied with the evacuation plan or did not believe the official announcement. They seemed to be afraid of encountering official people and being caught, so they hid as soon as they saw a car driving towards them openly.

The cemetery, which is usually quiet, is now even quieter. Perhaps because there are fewer people disturbing it, there are obviously more birds flying in from all directions.

Xiao Tao only brought Fei Ya and General Ju. Fei Ya seemed to be very familiar with the route. He ran and stopped along the way, looking very impatient.

Originally, Feiya was raised by a friend of Xiaotao's brother, but after Xiaotao met him by chance, Feiya frantically broke free from Ogata Karen's control and came to Xiaotao.

Seeing this, although Ogata was reluctant, she still gave Toya to Momo, whom she thought was a relative of Inukai Koki.

Although this is true in a way.

"Brother! Brother! Xiaotao is here to see you!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"Meow?"

One person, one dog and one cat.

Squatting in front of Inukai Koki's grave, chattering about what had happened in the past few days.

Hirosue Yoshimiya didn't want to disturb her, so he walked away and thought about the layout of the defense line and how to maximize the value of the items he created using forgeries.

"This tomb is"

Her eyes moved, as if she saw something familiar.

I walked forward and looked at the withered yellow flowers in front of the tomb, thinking deeply.

"It was left here about a week or two ago, probably when the evacuation plan was just announced."

Looking at the names on the tombstone, they were Ito's parents.

"Ito is back? Or is it her ex-girlfriend?"

She took a photo as a clue and kept it in her mind, but she didn't take it too seriously.
