Chapter 34 Yumiko's Favorability Detection System

With the cover of this massive explosion, the Crusaders' pursuit path was also temporarily cut off.

Then, under the leadership of Zuri Lukui, the four people continued to move.

Along the way, they passed through many fire escapes and emergency doors that no one used at ordinary times, squeezed in through unprepared gaps between large air-conditioning equipment, and even climbed between the steel structure stairs on the outside of the building. Jumping, getting in through the narrow exhaust port, and finally came to a low, narrow and dark place.

The ceiling is so low that adults with higher heights need to bend down. The red emergency lights illuminate a narrow passage, with cement columns spaced on both sides, as well as pipes and cables fixed to the columns.Together with the small passage, they extend forward and backward, extending beyond the range of the emergency lights and disappearing into the darkness.Looking out through the gap between the pipes and cables, there is another narrow passage similar to this one next door, and there are pipelines on the outside... In short, the channels and pipelines are arranged at intervals until they are outside the range of the light.

"Where is this?" Hui Yuanchu asked after looking around.

"Between the air-conditioned boiler room on the first floor of the theater and the parking lot on the first floor, there is a power mezzanine that is unlikely to be accessible even during routine maintenance." Oroku replied.

"In other words, we are safe here?"

"It's just safe for the time being." Orokuro replied calmly, "We took advantage of the fact that the Crusaders were short of manpower and could not search every place in the theater in a short time... But the fundamental situation has not changed. .”

"How to say?"

"We are actually trapped here. We are just using the complex hiding place of the building itself. Once we leave this building and enter the open-air area outside, we will be discovered immediately."

Zhe Lukui glanced to the side and said: "...But it's good to have this opportunity to breathe and think."

Following her line of sight, Hui Yuanchu also noticed the state of the other two girls, so he nodded in agreement: "...Yes, let's take a rest first."

These two obviously don't have Zorokui's calmness and Huiyuan's big heart, and they haven't recovered from the series of events just now, Alisa lowered her head and was a little dazed, Tamaki Yumiko even hugged her shoulders She was trembling, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes.

Sensing the gaze of the two, Yumiko Tamaki raised her head, with a three-point vigilance and three-point uneasiness in her expression, and said, "President and Huihara-kun... who are they?"

Soon, she added with an even more uneasy expression: "It's...'human', right?"

Only then did Hui Yuanchu realize that the whole process of activating his power to confront the warrior captain and killing two Crusaders, as well as the summoning of "Suigetsu" by Oriuru Aoi, had been witnessed by Tamaki Yumiko.

Apparently, a large part of her current uneasiness came from those apparently supernatural scenes.

Zhe Lukui didn't answer, but looked back at Hui Yuanchu, the implication was obvious.

——This question will be answered by you, who has the highest favorability among Tamaki Yumiko!

Hui Yuan was a little helpless at first, because he originally planned to comfort Tamaki Yumiko, but after thinking about it, he found that he was not much better informed about the whole matter than Tamaki Yumiko.

"Of course it's a human being." So when he finally thought about it, he just squeezed out a sentence: "And... he's someone who will protect you."

Tamaki Yumiko was inexplicably relieved. She nodded slowly and said, "I am willing to believe Haibara-kun."

...So, how should Tamaki Yumiko’s expression just be interpreted this way?Three points of vigilance, three points of uneasiness.For the remaining four points, you actually had already planned to believe him? ... Huiyuan didn't know what to say about this, so he could only scratch his head, and then glanced uneasily at Zhe Lukui, who was standing by with arms crossed and smiling silently.

Because he felt that he must have heard it correctly - just a moment ago, she seemed to squeeze out a vague sneer from between her teeth.

——It seemed as if he was mocking him as always and said, "I'll tell you what you see", but it also seemed to have more other meanings...

Tamaki Yumiko's question is not over yet.She continued to ask: "Who are those scary people who are like terrorists?"

"The Return to the Templar Crusade. You should have heard of it, the extremists who split from the church." Zorokui took over. There was nothing to hide about this issue. "So...why are they looking for me?" Tamaki Yumiko continued to ask.

Hui Yuanchu and Zhe Lukui looked at each other - finally they were asked this crucial question.

The brief hesitation of the two people was immediately caught by the sensitive Tamaki Yumiko.

"I, I'm just an ordinary person... My family has no money, and I look very ordinary... Whether it's a kidnapping or a political incident, why does it have anything to do with me?" Yumiko Tamaki murmured to herself, showing a strong expression of emotion. With an expression of fear, "...I can think of the only thing that's different about me from others...is that dream the only one?"

Haiyuan immediately realized that he could not let Tamaki Yumiko continue to doubt herself.

But when he looked at the unprecedented stern urging look from Zelukui, he really didn't know what he could say: "Uh--"

While he was hesitating, Zhe Lukui sighed softly and walked up.

"It's not important." Oriuru Aoi gently lifted Tamaki Yumiko's face and wiped away the remaining tears in her eyes. Her words were full of power and decisiveness. "The important thing is that you shouldn't be captured by those inexplicable guys. You You should go wherever you want to go, and don't go if you don't want to go - so we are here to protect you and never let you be forced by anyone."

"Things happened too suddenly, and now is not the time to pursue these matters. When we get back to a safe place, I will find out everything. Just trust me now, okay?"

Oroku Aoi's whole person has always exuded strong confidence.

And in this case, Tamaki Yumiko couldn't help but be infected.After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly nodded vigorously: "...Okay, I also want to believe the president!"

It's true that I didn't ask any more questions.

Oruru Aoi gently patted the back of Tamaki Yumiko's hand to express comfort, then turned around and asked: "Where is Mr. Fujiwara? Do you want to believe me?"

"...Don't worry about me." Alyssa waved her hand weakly, "Can I still not believe you? No, I can't."

She whispered in a low voice: "...After all, Miss Kui gave me this job, the house I live in was borrowed by Miss Kui, and my salary was paid by Miss Kui..."

"Very good." Orokui nodded with satisfaction, then glanced at everyone and said, "Then, let's rest for three to ten minutes. Then we will start the escape battle!"

Hui Yuanchu felt helpless.

Rest is necessary.And in fact, after moving to this mezzanine just now, his power has almost completely cooled down.

But Orokuchi said "three ten minutes", and when she said these words, she cast a glance and a vague smile... This was a hint that she already knew the cooling time of the power.

...It seems that there are no secrets left about his ability among Oroku Aoi.

Tamaki Yumiko and Alyssa had nothing to object to and found a clean place to sit down.After finally getting a brief chance to relax from a series of stressful events, the two girls quickly dozed off leaning against each other.

Huiyuan was still very energetic, and he still had many things he wanted to ask Zhe Lukui.

Zelukui didn't look tired either.She was standing in front of a piece of equipment not far away, holding her shoulders as if studying the nameplate on the equipment.

Seeing Hui Yuanchu approaching, Zhe Lukui seemed to be prepared.She first looked back: Tamaki Yumiko and Alyssa were already drowsy, knocking their heads.

So, Zhe Lukui made a gesture to Hui Yuanchu: "Let's go farther away."
