Any country that can criticize Japan

Early afternoon of the next day.

After finishing our work at the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, we were gathered in the living room with nine others, including Vice Minister Sayuri.

Was it my imagination that Kiriha’s and my room had become a conference room recently?

“In order to manufacture and distribute 6G-compatible devices, the games will be held on the last day of summer vacation. The time frame will be from noon to night to allow more people to watch the games. It will be a total of 3 hours and 30 minutes, one and a half hours each for the first half and the second half of the match, with a 30-minute break in between. But I’m concerned about what the abolitionists will do. Maria.”

“Yes.”

As if she were the secretary of Vice Minister Sayuri, Maria Thoughtography the material images on the 9 MR screens.

“The campaign of opposition by abolitionists continues to intensify. They are marching, speaking in the streets, publishing e-books, writing on the Internet, and posting critical videos. It’s safe to say that the public is taking all the steps it can.”

“What’s the content?”

“It’s about the Ability League is dangerous. The people with abilities are a dangerous potential criminal army. The government is misleading the public with its economic revitalization project, but the truth is that they are planning to create a psychic force to steer the country toward militarism and world domination. Japan’s economic collapse must have been staged for this purpose.”

“How influential is it?”

“Unfortunately, it has had some effect.”

With a slight hardening of her normally emotionless voice, Maria displayed a bar graph on the screen.

“Right now it’s still being treated as a conspiracy theory or a noisy minority. But if you compare the number of views and ratings of related videos, e-book sales, event attendance, etc., it’s definitely going up.”

With a bitter look on her face, Vice Minister Sayuri let out a sigh.

“Goodness gracious, there are a lot of people out there who jump on the hot topic without checking it out.”

“Ikuo! Apport every last one of them! I’ll give them a healing fist!”

Matsumi, her brow wrinkled, punched the table in anger.

“If they say we’re dangerous, we’ll do what they want!”

“It wouldn’t do any good for you to have the hate directed at you, now would it, Matsumi?”

“What’s the problem? If they come at me, I’ll turn the tables on them all!”

Unable to contain her agitation, Matsumi was breathing hard like a bull in a bullfight.

—It’s a virtue of Matsumi to be able to get angry for the sake of her colleagues, but it’s also a flaw.

“No matter how strong you are, what if you’re outnumbered and beaten? Besides, you’re a pretty girl, and if you get attacked by men, even healing won’t heal the wounds in your heart. I understand how you feel, but be patient.”

I said soothingly and grabbed her fist and forced her down onto her lap.

Then Matsumi became strangely quiet, lowered her head, and looked away.

—Hey, stop it, don’t give me a cute reaction. I’ll fall in love with you.

When Matsumi calmed down, Maria resumed her explanation.

“Also, the Oriental Union, a.k.a. OU, and other anti-Japanese groups have joined forces with the abolitionists and are growing in strength.”

“Really? But Maria, there are psychics in the OU, aren’t there?”

“Yes, there are. So, OU-affiliated groups and anti-Japanese groups are not criticizing psychics. They are mainly criticizing the Ability League and denouncing the conspiracy theory that the Japanese government is leaning toward militarism.”

“Isn’t the OU already doing anything as long as they can criticize Japan…?”

“Don’t talk about it, isn’t it been like that for a long time…?”

Shisae and I both dropped our eyebrows in dismay at the same time.

By the way, Maya was again being pampered by Vice Minister Sayuri on her knees today.

She seemed to be in a very good mood as if she was in love with the Southern Hemisphere.

Today, too, she was wearing an old coin she got from a red-haired girl in Okinawa as a hair ornament. I thought it glowed for a moment, perhaps reflecting the sunlight streaming in through the window.

Suddenly, Vice Minister Sayuri’s complexion changed.

“Hmm, an incoming call. It’s me. What’s wrong? ………a request from the abolitionists for a discussion program? Hmm, hmm, okay. I’ll consider it.”

Vice Minister Sayuri closed her eyes tightly as she put her hands on her head to suppress a headache.

“They are absolutely outrageous people. How far do they have to go to drag others down?”

Maya stood up from her knees and hugged Vice Minister Sayuri’s head tightly.

“Poor Sayuri-chan.”

Then, for some reason, Vice Minister Sayuri looked even more distressed.

“Kuh, a warrior like me is being spoiled…”

Apparently, she was taken with Maya’s cuteness.

—Maya, she’s such a scary child.

And as I was replaying the famous scene of the masterpiece in my mind, Kiriha indifferently leaned her weight on the sofa.
