D Genesis, 3 Years after Dungeon Appeared

§ 190 Ministry of Defence 3/12 (tue)

"The French team is missing on the tenth floor?

Department of Defense, Ichigaya District, Building C2.

The JDAG (Dungeon Attack Group), which was an independent unit at the Xishino garrison, was reorganized into a subordinate unit of the Land Corps with the establishment of the revised Self-Defense Forces Act in May 2017, and with the establishment of the General Corps, the nominal headquarters was relocated from Xishino to Ichigaya in March 2018.

Originally, everyone would have thought that Asaka would be a reasonable place to be headquartered or relocated, but nominally, it was to collaborate with JDA (Japan Dungeon Association).

At that time, originally, JDAG was assigned a location in a deep location near Building A of Building C, where intelligence-related organizations and units such as the information headquarters were located.

In that room, Second Sarge Terasawa received an emergency report.

"Yes, it's gone from the WDA's ranking list, so its survival..."

"Desperate. So?"

"The French team went on a 10-tier survey."

The human trail left in the dungeon is lost at considerable speed. That's why it's natural to hurry.

To the extent visible, lysis by slime has been reported, but it disappears as cleanly as if it were recycled by bacteria.

Interestingly, when the experiment was conducted to find out the cause, some debris that was the subject of observation did not disappear for the period under observation.

It was as if the very act of observation influenced the process.

"In the daytime, the effect of the assimilation drug won't cause any major problems. However, ten layers would be wide. Any requests for our help?

"They don't need it. The location was contacted by JDA."

"From JDA?

At that time, a call was made indicating that an external line had arrived.

Terazawa raised his right palm to the reporter and sent him a waiting autograph, then raised his phone.

"Ah, Terazawa-san? It's Saiga."

The voice I heard from the other side was a man who could also be called the key man of JDA, which was the subject of discussion today.

I need to talk to you for a minute...

"Talk to me? What's the matter, change it?"

"Yeah, well. It's a big deal to say it's the end of Japan. Look, I've already told you about the dungeon's intentions."

"Ah, that yota... no, excuse me"

"Ha ha ha. I wanted to talk a little bit more about the yota story."

"What?

The man standing in front of the change in Terazawa moved with a twinkle.

Terazawa, who saw it, told him to leave the room with his report in his eyes and gesture.

He left the room in gratitude after placing the documents he had on his desk by his side.

While following it with his eyes, Terazawa still remembered the report he had received from Saiga.

That story was caught in the report, but seeing no subsequent movement, it was probably treated as a kind of dementia.

"For more information - yes, what about Yoyogi Park?

Yoyogi Park, not JDA or the Ministry of Defense?... are you worried about bugging?

Yoyogi Park?

"I don't mind the garden, but there are a lot of people there, right? If you're nearby, Outdoor Park is also great, but there aren't many benches."

He's a man who doesn't know if he's serious or joking.

"That's right. It would be helpful if you could call the inner tone."

"What?

Terazawa repeated the words of surprise once again.

Informing the inner tone means informing the government.

He became a little worried about what this man was going to say.

"Cover - yes, please be a tiresome salesman who is unemployed and secretly searching for work for his family."

"What?

Hearing the words of surprise repeated three times, Saiga hung up the phone while laughing joyfully.

"Ignore my plans."

Terazawa murmured at the receiver and quietly returned it to the handset holder.

Of course, he set aside as much time as he could, and he didn't listen to our plans because he didn't give us time to prepare for the surroundings. He's a food-insecure man.

Terazawa raised the phone again and pressed the number to call Tanaka.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

In Yoyogi Park on weekdays, and in the cold sky, which is not a cherry blossom season, the area near the fountain bench was idle.

Terasawa stepped into a designated south setting and noticed a man wearing a tight coat raising his left hand on a bench in the corner on the left.

When I walked there early, I sat down alongside him.

Tanaka, who was coming with me, looked around lightly and sat on a bench with no back, facing away from Terazawa.

"So? What kind of story is this about fiction?

"Well, Terazawa-san. This is where Yoyogi Park's visibility is relatively open. There are no trees nearby where people can hide. It's a pretty good place to stand up, isn't it?

Tanaka was just listening to the two of them without saying anything, but his gaze turned towards his feet.

I can't say it's really possible to sneak under my feet from inside the pond, but it's suddenly decided. No matter how few, it won't be easy to get into the pond in the sight of the city.

Saiga, who immediately followed his gaze, exhaled one breath and began to speak frankly.

Actually, the Yoyogi dungeon made it possible to communicate.

Terazawa wondered if the project he had heard before had started.

It's earlier than I thought, but it's always been a topic of discussion.

"... I heard that the Divergent City project is still in the planning stage?

"You know that project?

"Your managing director - the elderly - has been talking about it all over the place..."

"It's not..."

Saiga was once again convinced that Yoshida had been cut so much.

"But even if you do it in advance, it starts from the first floor, right? You brought us here to talk like that?

Saiga did not reply directly, but when she looked at the watch, she murmured, "It's about time."

Terasawa said, "What?" The moment I tried to hear him, his phone vibrated.

Saiga gladly glanced at it and said, "Please. Please come out."

That's what he said, and when he took the phone out of his inner pocket, he opened his eyes to the impossible name that was displayed there.

"Nisasa Terasawa? It's Kimitsu!"

When I started the call, I heard a young woman on the other side of the phone who couldn't hear me. She should be in layer three (...) two (...) right now.

Behind me came a voice of surprise saying, "I'm really connected."

"That's stupid...."

Fortunately, the words that stuck out of my mouth did not reach the other side.

"I got a call from JDA asking me to contact them... but they're really connected now. So, what can I do for you?

"No, check the connection. Thank you for coming back to work."

Got it. Lieutenant Kimitsu, we're back on duty. "

Even after she hung up, Terazawa stared at her phone for a while.

"How about that?

"How about... what kind of magic did you use?

Saiga laughed funny as if she were joking.

"Actually, he asked someone on the other side of the dungeon to be his agent."

The temple that heard the story caught my eye.

It is unusual for a man to have such a calm expression on his face. The expression of Tanaka on the other side remained almost unchanged, but Saiga did not miss the glittering movement under her eyes for a moment.

"Did you ask?

"Yes, it is."

"Someone on the other side of the dungeon?

"Probably."

"I didn't hear that."

Well, now I'm talking to you for the first time.

"... aren't you a JDA employee?

"I'm a serious employee. However, before reporting it to my boss, I thought it would be better if I told you both. Well, if that's not necessary."

He shrugged his shoulders and stood up from the bench.

"That's enough of this bullshit."

Until then, Tanaka, who had been lying and listening to the story, said in a strange quiet voice while looking at the five wolves standing in the water of the fountain pond, which could not be said to be beautiful.

Saiga felt the same pressure in front of the killer master in the judo game, causing him to slightly touch his face.

"I'm scared. Is that who you are?

"If you think there is no darkness in a peaceful Japan, it is proof that you have lived a happy life."

I don't want to know that for the rest of my life.

"Can I pull it out of the JDA right away?

"I won't let that happen. I like myself a lot."

"So, the source of the quake is Sanyoshi?

We never looked at each other, but Tanaka suddenly changed the subject and asked.

Saiga just shrugged her shoulders and said, "Do you know that better? And I said,

They've been watching them since the first delivery of the orb.

But Tanaka shook his head.

"Within the dungeon, they are not escorted. It wasn't possible."

"Guard. Is that impossible?

"They're going to shake it off sometime. And..."

During the disturbance of cross-linguistic understanding, it was with a head that the whole of Irigal in Russia was taken.

The Gyoen team apparently had American guards under control, but it wasn't even clear how the snipers who were supposed to shoot or the elite deployed in the dungeon were caught. (* 1)

"--There doesn't seem to be any organization in the dungeon that could hurt those people so far."

Tanaka then inherited an unusual and emotional word.

I don't know what kind of mastery you're protected by.

Everyone understood that the shadow of the world's leading man glittered, but nobody mentioned it.

A little further away from the fountain, I heard a group playing some kind of exercise begin to prepare for gymnastics.

Until then, Terazawa, who had listened to the two stories in a daze, interrupted the conversation as if it had been a switch.

"Wait a minute. In other words, is it possible to make this call because Miyoshi demanded that someone on the other side of the dungeon do so?

"It doesn't matter who asked for it. I wanted to talk to you about your troubles -"

Tanaka succeeded him in blocking Saiga's lines.

"What about the fact that we made contact with someone on the other side of the dungeon?

With his hand in his pocket, he shrugged his shoulders to shake himself in the cold sky, and Saiga sat down again.

"No, but if there's no evidence, they won't believe it."

Terazawa clasped his arms with a difficult face.

"What makes you able to communicate?

"Those who do not know the scene think it is possible to do so with the power of mankind."

"Is that a project with a stupid name for Divergent City?

"Stupid."

Terazawa smiled bitterly, but in a general way she agreed.

That's a project that doesn't think about maintenance. If they had been moved to execution, they would probably have figured out where to manage it.

Now, I can say that I've had a lot of nosebleeds.

"It's okay. In a few days, you'll have to trust me no matter how skeptical I am."

"What?

"You mean we've been in contact with someone beyond the dungeon?"

"They come and say hello to the government?

"To that extent, there is still salvation."

Then I can say it's still before the negotiations begin.

Foreign countries and the United Nations will be noisy enough to make fun of themselves at best.

"To what extent?

"Offered this time is a miracle, to put it mildly. You should think about how to make excuses to foreign countries in the meantime."

After all, the unusual technology seems to be a Japanese monopoly from a foreign point of view.

Behind the scenes, it is certain that they will demand the release of the technology. But it's impossible to pass it on. I don't know how to make it anyway.

But will countries be convinced?

"A miracle? Did you join some religious group?

"If you really want me to save you, do it now."

Answering Terasawa's joke lightly, Saiga told them about the return stone and the transition stone that were due to be announced in a few days.

Too much content, they passed the surprise and their expressions fell off.

"Metastasis...?

Tanaka muttered unexpectedly, and Terazawa asked for confirmation.

"Metastasis, that metastasis, that disappears here and there, that metastasis?

"You can disappear over there and show up here, but that's it."

"I don't know..."

To ask whether it was possible, Terazawa kept his mouth shut.

If that weren't true, we wouldn't be talking about this here.

"Just in case, is it available outside the dungeon?

Tanaka turned to me for the first time and asked with a keen glance.

Saiga had heard from Misaki about the possibility that it would be possible in the future, but at the present time, she had received reports of restrictions on relocation sites and the successful addition of functions that would become mere stones away from Yoyogi.

"Only available within the dungeon for specific locations."

It is, isn't it?

Tanaka leaned over and distorted her mouth.

"If stones that can be transferred anywhere become practical, you can do whatever you want to do, such as terrorism. It can't be prevented."

"Anyway, we don't know how to make it. So even if they ask me to give you the technology, I can't give it to them."

"The stone itself will be required."

That's how we should gather the best of science and study it.

But Saiga shook his head.

"When you take this stone out of Yoyogi, it becomes nothing but a stone without any aberration. So it will be difficult to study it in detail."

If we were to build a lab in the building where the dungeon boot camp is taking place, it might be within range.

"What else did you ask for?

"Nothing. After all, this case is not really a request. To be precise, he just told me that he voluntarily induced it to happen."

"That means two-way communication was there."

Saiga did not answer, but Tanaka remained silent and did not pursue it.

"But that's what happens. Whatever the outcome, we can't avoid interrogating the people involved."

Saiga shook her head and advised.

"I think Tanaka-san is familiar with this..."

Tanaka raised her face when she heard that.

"--your imaginary people are basically good people and obedient, but even though they are powerful politicians of some sort, they bend their navel if they take an unjust attitude."

Tanaka looked at him in trouble and went on.

"So, if you bend your navel, you don't know what to do in the end."

"That's exactly what you know. I've just been envious of dictators lately. Just in case, I need your advice."

The edge of Tanaka's mouth must have distorted slightly, laughing.

"Talented liberals are a tough example of organization."

"Does the militia have people like that?

"Unfortunately, almost everyone who is extremely talented tends to do so."

Terazawa shrugged his shoulders all the time if he had no choice, but if the army was still thoroughly conscious of subordination, it would still be somewhat weak.

They're free dams, good or bad.

If Japan doesn't like it, it seems that it has the mental ability to take refuge in other countries at any time.

Moreover, no matter which country it is, it is certainly a bargain. There is no obstacle.

"Anyway, I understand. The other side of the dungeon, it's a long time."

"We call you Demiurgos or Dantsk."

"Demiurgos was a good word. But Dantsuk-chan is going to be more popular."

"Maybe."

"Anyway, is Dantsuk-chan still able to communicate with you?

"I can't tell you directly, but I can tell you."

"That's what the route looks like again."

"If you can't, there's no communication."

Terasawa frowned and complained.

"That could be taken... if the JDA were to jump in between?

"It's not true, so I don't mind."

"There are a lot of experts who make smoke where there's no fire."

"My advice hurts."

"Then we can communicate indirectly."

"For now."

Okay, I'll take care of the cabinet.

"Thank you. Just in case, please don't take it through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the other side of the dungeon to connect us here."

"Why?

"They don't want it."

"So what do you do?

"What they want is what they serve."

"Was it true what was written in the previous report?!

"Of course. JDA doesn't tell lies."

Terazawa poisoned herself, though she seemed to have a lot to say.

"The object of service... I don't understand one thing right now. What's in return for Dantsuk-chan?

"Come on."

I don't know that point.

If humans were to colonize other planets, what they would expect in return would be the planet's resources.

But for now, the opponent seems to be making everything out of nothing. If what Naruse and the others are saying is true, even humans are reproducing it.

Do they have what they need?

"Perhaps mankind itself."

Saiga somehow said so, but they heard it in silence.

So they dissolved on the spot. The information will be passed on to the appropriate place in each institution.

What happened afterwards... was out of Saiga's reach.

He came home worried about how to report the whole new department to Orange.
