Chapter 126 (1/2)

126. Enemy Site Inspection 1

”My mother told me that I shouldn't talk to strangers …” (Mitsuha)

Ultimate skill [Act like a child]!!

It's been a long time, since I used this…

”Eh…”(Soldier)

Un, he's troubled! From his point of view, he can only see me as a 12 to 13 years old girl! …No, I'm not happy at all!

The young soldier who called to me was around 20 years old. Looking at the rank badge, it is a rank equivalent to a senior soldier by earth's standard. I remembered the ranks of the captured battleship crews.

”Wait, No, I'm not suspicious!” (Soldier)

”My mother told me that every suspicious person says that…” (Mitsuha)

”Ugh…” (Soldier)

Alright, he's troubled!

…tte, I bullied him too much huh, I feel bad for him. He just doing his job after all, he doesn't have bad intentions.

”I'm waiting because my father isn't coming back. It's been quite a while since the Cariard left the port…” (Mitsuha)

The Cariard is one of the three captured battleships.

”Uh….” (Soldier)

The soldier is unable to think of anything to say.

Well that's because something like expeditionary fleet is the same as gambling. Aside from getting any result, it wasn't guaranteed for it to return safely. No, the chances of returning aren't that high… In fact, it will not return.

Moreover, He can't possibly tell a little girl that [They are unlikely to return safely].

”Do you know something about it?” (Mitsuha)

”Ah, no, umm, I-I'm not sure because I'm in a different department. Well then, excuse me…” (Soldier)

After saying that, the soldier walks away.

Alright, I won!

Maybe the soldier from earlier was a security guard.
