In the darkness of night, several figures on a tall building were watching the disturbance in the neighboring city.
Two days ago, when night fell, this city had been just as noisy.
Now, two nights later, it was frighteningly quiet.
But if there was any slight movement anywhere, it would be amplified countless times and become crystal clear.
"Hehe, got it ready."
A petite pink-haired girl with short twin tails looked at the drone and toy car in her hands and showed a somewhat sinister smile.
These weren't ordinary drones and remote-controlled toy cars - they were loaded with bombs.
They would definitely give the bastard organization "Syringe" a little surprise.
This was also revenge for preventing her from continuing her idol work.
Right, middle school student Nashida Oriha was an idol who was just about to start a national tour concert, but this bastard organization had made the world like this - how could she hold concerts?
So as a member of "Black Label," being the bomb girl she was, they should have a good taste of her bomb feast.
"Oriha, don't act recklessly!"
The blue-haired mature woman dressed like a nurse, putting down her night vision goggles, warned this child with a slightly serious expression on her beautiful face.
"I know, Hitsugi-chan."
Nashida Oriha stuck out her pink tongue cutely.
She naturally understood the real mission now - to find where "Syringe's" actual stronghold was located.
Then Nashida Oriha also stuck her tongue out at another person - this reddish-brown haired woman wasn't from "Black Label," but a very justice-minded female police officer named Suzue Konomi.
During the corpse crisis after the virus outbreak, this person had inadvertently discovered "Syringe" members mixed among citizens trying to cause destruction and chaos, attempting to throw the shelter at Mochizuki Hospital into disorder.
She was about to act immediately, but ended up letting the other party escape, which made Nashida Oriha somewhat depressed.
The reason was that they had naturally also discovered the other party and were quietly approaching to capture them in one go, incidentally interrogating them to see if they could get any useful information.
Who would have thought this female police officer would rashly alert the other party, making them immediately flee?
During the subsequent chase, this female police officer had actually kept up.
In the end, Hitsugi-chan had no choice but to let the female police officer follow along. Otherwise, with this impulsive police officer's personality acting alone, it would only interfere with their operations.
Moreover, this female police officer might also be discovered by the other party who had counter-surveillance capabilities, possibly being lured into a trap and meeting a tragic end.
So they brought her along, with Hitsugi-chan leading the team in a game of cat and mouse with the other party.
Finally, the other party seemed to truly not notice their tracking and they followed them to the neighboring city.
This way, they might be able to catch "Syringe's" stronghold.
According to speculation, "Syringe's" headquarters was also in this country, and might be hidden in some city around Hioka City.
"What is that?"
Suzue Konomi suddenly noticed a light point rapidly approaching in the night sky.
"What?"
Hitsugi Sayo, ostensibly a nurse but secretly "Black Label's" heavy firearms assault forward in the team, couldn't help but follow the police officer's gaze toward a direction in the night.
It was a moving light point with considerable speed, definitely exceeding the speed of sound, and this straight flight trajectory with gradually decreasing altitude seemed like it would reach above this city.
This made Hitsugi Sayo's face change dramatically - she thought of one possibility.
"Uh, Hitsugi-chan, this isn't a missile attack, is it?"
Nashida Oriha, who had also noticed, became somewhat nervous.
An ordinary missile wouldn't be a problem - the target wouldn't necessarily be attacking them.
But if it was a missile with a nuclear warhead, then they should just give up and wait to die.
After these words, this thing had already entered this city's airspace.
In the blink of an eye, this thing passed over their heads.
"That doesn't seem like a missile, does it?"
Although the speed was very fast, breaking the sound barrier, the blurred figure didn't look like a missile.
More importantly, this thing displayed a jaw-dropping scene.
"What is this!"
Nashida Oriha exclaimed with some loss of composure.
This thing could actually fly at such speed and then stop in mid-air.
Due to the distance being too far, they couldn't see clearly with the naked eye. So Nashida Oriha picked up binoculars and focused on that light point suspended in the air.
She got it in focus and could see clearly what it actually was - that was—
"What the hell!"
Nashida Oriha made a somewhat confused sound.
It was something somewhat humanoid, equipped with some kind of flight combat equipment.
To describe it simply, it was like the mechanical girls from 2D anime.
No wait, this seemed like a mechanical guy.
Was she sure she wasn't seeing wrong?
Rubbing her eyes and refocusing on that figure, it was still the same.
Suddenly, Nashida Oriha's body stiffened - the other party turned to look this way, seeming to notice her watching him.
He might have really discovered them - after all, with that high-tech equipment on him, discovering them wouldn't be strange.
So that thing on that guy's body - was this something that should exist in this era?
But this wasn't the main point yet - the equipment on this guy seemed to be transforming with clicking sounds, and the two tubes on the mechanical wings behind him seemed to be combining into a gun.
Ah, that should be called a cannon.
Because comparing it proportionally to his body, the tubes were thicker than his neck.
He was pointing the cannon barrel toward the ground like this?
Then the mechanical wings on his back began glowing, as if absorbing the not-too-obvious starlight and moonlight under the night sky, making the surrounding light decrease and become darker.
Crackling snap— Actually, Nashida Oriha didn't hear such sounds at all; she was imagining it. Because she saw what looked like electric arcs jumping and flashing at the cannon barrel.
The cannon barrel was also becoming increasingly bright.
This looked very much like those future weapons from sci-fi movies about to fire laser cannons.
This scene also made her swallow slightly, her eyes staring intently.
The next moment, like light meant to judge darkness, it pierced through the darkness, tore through the night, and launched purifying judgment toward the sinful earth swallowed by darkness.
At this moment, the world became quiet.
This silence was only an extremely brief instant before welcoming earth-shaking changes.
