Gin likes me?

"This food is really good!" Uozuka Saburo blinked in confusion, suddenly confused.

From this perspective, this organization is quite wealthy? They even provide such good food for their captured "experimental subjects"?

No matter how much you think about it, you have to eat, especially for Uozuka Saburo who has not eaten anything since coming here yesterday and is already starving.

Following the staff member, Uozuka Saburo and the others came to an area in the corner of the cafeteria.

He wolfed down half a bowl of rice, then choked a little, so he picked up the bowl of soup and was about to smooth his esophagus.

"Hmm?" After swallowing the soup with a gulp, Uozuka Saburo blinked, retracted the arm he dared not raise, and nodded with a wry smile at the silver-haired girl who was sitting at the other table and eating quietly.

Well, I didn’t get a response from my roommate.

"You are so young, but your personality is so cold." He grinned and thought of the scene where he was frightened by the other party in the room yesterday. Uozuka Saburo thought he should be more careful.

"Those who can survive in a place like this must not be normal people."

Thinking of this, the little joy that Uozuka Saburo felt from eating instantly disappeared.

"what?"

Saburo Uozuka, who had been distracted while eating, focused his eyes.

Just when everyone was eating, two girls in their teens followed a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, carrying their own plates and sat next to their silver-haired roommate.

Although he couldn't hear clearly what the other person was saying, but from the cold look on his silver-haired roommate's face and the other person's smile that was similar to the female villain in the idol drama that Uozuka Saburo watched in the office with his homeroom teacher's daughter, Uozuka Saburo knew that they might not be friends.

"Tsk tsk, as expected, where there are people there is society. They are so young, yet they are forming cliques and looking for trouble." After slurping a mouthful of soup, Uozuka Saburo stared at the situation to the side.

'If a quarrel breaks out, that guy will suffer. She looks so cold and doesn't seem to have any friends. Besides, the other party is older and there are more people. Oh, oh, oh~ what a classic way to stir up trouble!'

His eyes suddenly lit up as he watched the older girl mutter something to herself while reaching out to take the only staple bread from the silver-haired roommate's plate, then waving it in front of the silver-haired roommate as if in a protest and then taking a bite. Uozuka Saburo knew that the grudge had been formed.

"What should I do in this situation? I can ask the guards nearby, but they don't seem to care about it." Blinking, Uozuka Saburo began to think about what he should do if someone wanted to steal his food in the future.

"Looks like I can only swallow my anger? The other side has more people and they are older and healthier, so that girl can only suffer in silence... Hmm? Hmm? ! "

His eyes were wide open and Uozuka Saburo even forgot to swallow the rice in his mouth.

His eyes were fixed on the silver-haired roommate who had threatened him with a dinner knife yesterday.

That petite body was so powerful and swift at this moment.

His arms were obviously very thin, but he firmly grasped the hair of the girl who was older and bigger than him, and slammed her face onto the plate with vegetable oil splattered all over it.

The grim expression on her face did not fluctuate at all, until the girl's curses and screams turned into crying and begging, and only then, under the scolding of the guards who rushed over, did she let go of the girl's hair as if throwing away garbage.

Watching the petite silver-haired figure being led out of the cafeteria by the guards, and under the scolding of the staff behind him, Uozuka Saburo swallowed the rice that had been fermenting in his mouth for a long time.

However, at this moment, Uozuka Saburo's mind was filled with the image of his silver-haired roommate.

My mind is full of her! My heart is beating so fast! Could this be the legendary heartbeat?

'I'll go to your heart's desire!'

Taking his eyes away from the blood-stained dining table, Uozuka Saburo stretched out his slightly trembling hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Fortunately I didn't provoke this big sister yesterday. Are all little girls nowadays so fierce? ! "

003: You must give him a punch!

The farce in the cafeteria was quickly calmed down due to the interference of the guards.

Saburo Uozuka paid special attention to it, and found that neither the guards nor the people nearby, who were tentatively called 'experimental subjects', showed any surprise at this scene.

Some people watched indifferently and ate their own meals, while others had a mocking look on their faces and did not show the slightest intention of watching the fun. In short, no one felt sympathy for the girl whose head was hit by her silver-haired roommate, and no one felt nervous or scared because of the sudden conflict in the cafeteria.

Well, except for the new guys including Uozuka Saburo.

"Huh~" After taking a long breath, Saburo Uozuka looked at the unfinished food on the plate and suddenly lost his appetite.

I was not considered a school bully. Apart from a few bloodless fights, I had never done anything illegal.

Suddenly coming to this place that brought him no good emotions except coldness and panic, the fact that Saburo Uozuka did not collapse can be regarded as the result of the hard fight of the carefree side of his character.

"No, I need to cheer up. The situation is already like this. If I am still muddle-headed, there will be no hope. No one here will use the stingy words of kindness and goodness to you."

There was a determined light flashing in his slightly drooped eyes, and Uozuka Saburo already knew what he should do next.

It shouldn't be too difficult to find out what this place is used for. Since the people in this base have captured the children, there must be something for the children to do. I also remember that the person in charge said that they would give them a physical examination today. The important thing is to assign them tasks after the examination.

The worst outcome is being used as a 'guinea pig' for experiments. If things are a little better, you'll be given some strange drugs and then have your reactions clinically tested.

A little better.

With his lips slightly pursed, Uozuka Saburo recalled the powerful and fierce movements of his silver-haired roommate.

"With such skills, and the guards didn't attack us right away, so we might be trained to fight? Like boy soldiers?"

"Well, this situation should be very high. I remember that when we were handing over at the gate, the person in charge mentioned the word training."

He gritted his teeth and looked at the remaining food on the plate. Even though he had no appetite, Saburo Uozuka stuffed it all into his mouth and chewed it hard.

Finally, he flattened the big loaf of bread that he had not had time to eat and put it in his pocket.

Following the team and placing the food plates in the designated place, Uozuka Saburo walked silently in this underground base where no one knew how many rooms there were.

After turning another corner, the view that was trapped by cement finally became open.

Well, although the edge of the space is still cold cement, Uozuka Saburo's attention has been shocked by this underground space which is about half the size of the main stadium and about five meters high.

Most of the area in the center of the venue was occupied by various three-dimensional equipment that, in Saburo Uozuka's impression, were only used for military training in TV dramas. A runway was drawn with white paint lines that covered the center.

If the current situation was not wrong, Saburo Uozuka would have felt that he had come to a large underground real-life CS teaching base.

"Why did you bring them here? Didn't they say that this batch needs a physical examination first?"

Just as a group of children were staring at their surroundings but not daring to make a sound, a man in camouflage clothes walked out of the side room and looked at the leader strangely.

"Ah, the boss said that the equipment and medicines for the physical examination have not been delivered yet, and the base's inventory is insufficient. He asked me to bring these kids over first."

The person in charge lit a cigarette and spoke lazily. When his eyes swept over the children including Uozuka Saburo, there was no emotion at all.

"Anyway, there won't be many who can stick around in the end, so why not eliminate a group of them first? There are so many people, there's no need to keep all of them."

"Really? I don't care. If there were fewer people, my job would be easier." Shrugging, the man in camouflage uniform looked past the person in charge and casually glanced at some of the children standing in line.

"So, I'm going to start now?"

"Well, just follow the usual first-day amount, and divide out the ones that make it through."

"Ok."

"Well, you unlucky little guys, I hope you can remember what I'm going to say next." The camouflaged man stood in front of the children with his arms folded, and the smile on his face made Uozuka Saburo very uncomfortable.

Their conversation just now did not avoid Uozuka Saburo and the others, which also made Uozuka Saburo somewhat understand his current situation.

Although he didn't know what would happen if he didn't persevere through the rest of the training, Uozuka Saburo had never considered the option of not completing it.

If they really need you to do something, then at least show your value!

Only by letting them see their abilities and future can they have a chance to survive in this cold underground base!

'At least, we have to be among the group that perseveres to the end.'

Having already made up his mind, Uozuka Saburo tried hard to calm his nervous breathing and listened carefully to the words of the man in camouflage uniform.

"I am not interested in knowing your names. You should call me 'Instructor'."

"The most important thing is that in this No. 1 training ground, what you have to do is what I tell you to do. If you can complete it, you are lucky."

"If you haven't finished it." The smile on his lips became more evil and weird, and the man in camouflage uniforms' eyes were full of interest and anticipation.

"You will know what hell is."

"Well, start running around the track now. No one is allowed to stop until I say stop!"

"Now, immediately!"

Amid the scolding of the man in camouflage uniform, Saburo Uozuka's life at the base officially began.

The first day's training was not very complicated, there were only two simple items.

Running and fighting.

Running is to make the children in the training ground run until they fall down one by one due to exhaustion, but Uozuka Saburo, with gritting his teeth and persevering, successfully entered the next round as the last one to fall.

Although Uozuka Saburo wanted to describe their second part as something that sounded more advanced like a duel, the scene of a group of children who were already exhausted from running fighting each other in pairs was really difficult to describe with any decent words.

As for the fighting, Uozuka Saburo was quite open-minded.

Just treat it as a fight, no big deal.

As a reward for excellent performance in both stages, Saburo Uozuka was placed at the front of the team by the man in camouflage uniforms when the team finished standing in line.

"Starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for bringing these people to Training Ground No. 1. If anyone doesn't come, I will settle the score with you."

Looking at the man in camouflage uniform who was giving him orders with a smile, Uozuka Saburo pursed his lips and could only nod. At the same time, he opened the little notebook in his heart again and recorded the man's appearance firmly in his mind.

"When I get the chance, I will definitely give him a punch!"

004: I'm not a coward

I don’t know whether I should thank the people in this base for having some remaining conscience, or whether we really shouldn’t have too high expectations of children’s physical fitness.

Saburo Uozuka felt like he had been at Training Ground No. 1 for what felt like a long time, but when he arrived at the cafeteria he realized that it was only around two o'clock in the afternoon.

Following the morning procedure, after getting his late lunch, Saburo Uozuka led the group of children to their seats in the cafeteria.

During this process, many children have shown their willingness to follow Uozuka Saburo's actions.

After all, as the only person who was patted on the shoulder and talked to by the terrible instructor during the morning training, Saburo Uozuka was still a little different to the other children.

In addition, whether it was running or fighting, Uozuka Saburo performed well, so these children, who were already as timid as little rabbits, had no extra thoughts.

However, this is only a surface phenomenon. Uozuka Saburo, who has rich experience in struggles in school, knows that when these children begin to become familiar with the surrounding environment, even if everyone is a prisoner, "internal struggle" will inevitably occur.

Well, even if everyone is a scumbag who is being controlled, I still want to be the biggest scumbag.

However, Uozuka Saburo had no intention of paying any attention to these.

His idea was simple enough, to maintain his current training status and become stronger as soon as possible.

What happened to my silver-haired roommate today is enough to prove that in this underground base, only those who are strong enough have the qualifications to protect themselves.

Otherwise even the food will be snatched away.

Thinking of this, Uozuka Saburo became more eager to train.

Not to mention that training can improve one's physical fitness and abilities in all aspects, making it easier for one to escape when opportunities arise in the future.

At least, I can't be threatened by my roommate with a knife.

Speaking of his silver-haired roommate, Uozuka Saburo paused slightly in his eating.

When the fight was almost over, Uozuka Saburo vaguely heard the camouflage man and the person in charge chatting.

It was said that No. 4 from Group 12 was punished by having to double his training and was deprived of lunch and dinner because he attacked an adult in the cafeteria in the morning.

From the looks of it, my roommate is going to be in trouble today.

As someone who came in earlier than this group of kids, she must have experienced more training than she did today.

Moreover, she looked thin and weak, and even though she had beaten someone very quickly in the morning, Uozuka Saburo felt that her small body would have great stamina.

And there is no food to eat.

"Alas, what right do I have to worry about others now?" Shaking his head, Uozuka Saburo felt a little ridiculous. His own situation was obviously not much better, but he still thought about these trivial things.

After finishing his lunch in a few bites, Uozuka Saburo took out the bread that was soaked with sweat and almost dried out from his pocket and threw it on the plate with disgust.

With a smart blink of his eyes, Uozuka Saburo carefully put the bread he had just received at noon into his clothes.

When he received his meal, he specifically asked for a little extra, intending to take it back to his room for emergency use.

Lunch ended quickly, mainly because the exhausted and nervous children had no appetite, and no one ate everything on the plate like Saburo Uozuka.

He glanced at Uozuka Saburo's plate with some surprise. It seemed that the person in charge, who was going to follow Uozuka Saburo and the others today, didn't say much and took them to collect their clothes.

Well, the style is the same, but the color is different. Uozuka Saburo’s guess turned out to be correct.

After receiving the clothes, Saburo Uozuka and six other children who had performed outstandingly in the previous training were taken away separately and underwent a series of physical examinations and tests which they could not understand but felt were very professional.

"After the bell rings tomorrow morning, take them to the cafeteria for lunch, and go to training ground No. 1 to find today's instructor before eight o'clock."
