Complex 311. Team

Get down!!

Margo-san turned back and throws a knife type shuriken to the enemy attacking from the ceiling

Dosu, dosu!

The shuriken sticks to the belly of the enemy wearing gray fighting clothes but it seems theyre wearing blade deflecting vests.

The enemys stance only broke but theres no damage.

I cover Nei-san. I lowered my hips and and made my body as small as possible

Yuknio clings to Nei-san from behind.

Haaaaaaaaa!!!

Margo-san runs at full speed and jumps to the gray enemy!

At that momentthe enemy lurking around us also takes action!

I wont let you!!

Passing through Margo-sanReika rushes to the enemy on behind!

Michi-chan, get down!

Seki-san points the handgun to the enemy appearing in front!

Doouun! Dauun!!!

She shot twice as a warning!

Though it doesnt hit the enemythe accurate shooting stops the movement approaching us.

Leave this one to me!

Michi confirming the situation, she heads towards the gray enemy fighting Margo-san

Yaa! Haaaaaaaaa!!!

Margo-san pulls out something like a metal flexible baton and strikes down the gray enemy coming down from the ceiling.

The gray enemy pulls out a big combat knife and fight !

Gaki! Bakikiki!

The two metals collide and sparks fly.

Haii! Haii! Haiii!!!!

On the other handReika releases a three stage thrust with her cane to the enemy on the rear!

The enemy barely avoids itand takes a distance from us

Dauuu!!

Seki-san shots another bullet!

Shes making sure the enemy in front wont move.

Avoid it!

Michis red whip flies to the gray enemy!

The gray enemy jumps backwards.

While jumping, they threw a knife shaped shurikenMichi avoids by stepping backwards.

The enemy shuriken stabs the floor on Michis flank.

Because of thatshe cant make a second shot with her whip

Look this way!

Michi makes the beckoning cat pose

Kudou style martial arts Mystic artShingetsu

No, Michi!

I shouted

W-What?

Michis concentration loosens.

At that moment

The grey enemy shouted something in english

Lie down! Thats a flashbang!

MArgo-san said, I then pushed Nei-san and lied down the floor.

Yukino did the same.

The front and back of the corridor shined brightly!!

Uu!

Looking upthe three enemies have already disappeared.

Is everyone okay?

Margo-san said while breathing roughly

Im fineYo-chan protected me!

Nei-san answered as she hugs me.

Theres tears in her cheeks.

My eyes are flickering. I cant see anything

Kouzuki Kenshi seems to have taken the flash directly

Close your eyes for a while. Itll heal with time

Seki-san answers while replenishing the bullets she shot

Sorry, I acted to disarrange the formation

Reika apologizes to Margo-san

NoI think that was the correct decision. The enemy didnt come close here because Reika-oneesan jumped in

Normally, I would be in the middle of the rankswe couldve repelled the enemy that came in the ceiling

Reika didnt notice the enemy on the ceiling, and it seems that her initial response was delayed.

No, that person was special so my body moved on its own. Normally, Id leave it to Reika-oneesan, even though Im the the rear and take the enemy from behindI thought that I had to fight with the gray enemy so I jumped into the middle. If it wasnt for Reika-oneesan jumping in and hold the enemy from the rear, it wouldve been badsorry

Margo-san apologizes to Reika.

If it wasnt for Margo-oneesama, I wont be able to deal with the gray enemy

Michi said.

Margo-san pulled the shuriken the gray enemy threw on the floor.

OhI knew it

Whats it, Maru-chan?

Here, look

Margo-san shows the enemy shuriken to Nei-san.

Following, she takes out her shuriken

The two shuriken almost have the same shape.

Though, the materials and processing is slightly different

It means were fellow students

Margo-san smiles

My master is Kyouko-san. And she was with Kyouko-san before me

Miss Cordelia

The gray enemy earlier was Miss Cordelia?

Then that means that the one who attacked from the front and behind are the white Viola and Rosalind.

Because fellow students are able to understand whats the scope of the othereven if they break the formation, I think that Margo-san taking her own was the correct decision

Rather than that, I think that Fujimiya-san and Michi-san respnding to the sudden change formation did well. I think that Margo-sans judgement was righteach moved to a position where they thought they could be at their best and follow up with each other. Were working as a proper team!

Seki-san praises the entire team.

As for Seki-sanyou stopped the enemy in front with just three shots, as expected

Reika said.

Wellthose people werent serious you see

Seki-san smiles wryly

They werent serious? But!

Yukinos surprised.

If they were serious then the enemy wouldve used a gun from the start. I think that most of us would be dead if they shot while completely out of sight

Margo-san also agrees.

The attack this time was just to come and check our fighting skills?

I ask Margo-san

Rather than reconits more like a greeting. They didnt come to seriously attack

The fourth person didnt come out

Thats righttheres a team of four people along with Miss Viola entering the hotel.

The last one didnt show up

Either way, I think theyre observing our situation somewhere!

Then. why did Master stop me?

Michi looks at me.

Yeah. The enemys aim is to wait and seeso wont it be bad for us if we show all our cards? Besides

Theres a doubt inside me.

We dont know whether MichisShingetsuwill work on martial artists master, right?Besides, Michi didnt notice Miss CordeliasQiwhen she was hiding on the ceiling, right?

We had Michi as the vanguard because we rely on her ability to perceiveQi

But, she didnt notice Miss Cordelia

If miss Cordelia is a master who can completely erase her presenceits possible that Michi cant use herShingetsu

SorryMaster

Michi bows her head.

No, it was my fault to make a formation that depends on Michis ability too much

Margo-san blames herself

Dont worry about it. A monster opponent like that is hard to deal with

Seki-san smiles and Margo-san followed up.

Lets return to the previous formation. Fujimiya-sans the vanguard, Im in second row. Michi-san will be protecting the other children and look for everyonesQi Then, Margo-san will be the rear

Margo-san nods at Seki-sans proposal.

Fujimiya-san didnt charge alone like beforeif something happens suddenly, we can change our positions to our judgement just like now. We already know each others abilities so lets follow up each other

The combat teams combination is definitely getting better.

As expected of the top elite of Kouzuki security serviceSeki-san Youve got a better leadership than I do

Margo-san said.

Is she losing confidence in leading the team due to Miss Cordelias attack?

WrongFujimiya-san and I have come to thinkWhat can I do?Whats my position in the teamthanks to you. If it was me beforewell, although Ive got plenty of experience and skills, I lack the eye to look around because I only think about myself. Joining up a team like thisIve noticed and understood a lot of things

Im the same as Seki-san

Reika said

Up until now, I was selfish I regret on it

Thereforewell leave the teams command to Margo-san. Of course, if we noticed something then well immediately point it out, butI think that Margo-san is the only one has the eye to look at the whole unit with the perspective of a leader

Yes, dont mind and give us more instructions

Michi adds to Seki-san and Reika.

I also trust Margo-oneesama. Lets keep on going!

Everyonethank you

MArgo-sans inspired.

Yes, yes! Itll be fine, Maru-chan! Im sure itll be a good team

Nei-san said smiling.

Besidesyou have good eyes. That really helped

Seki-san praises Yukino

Well, I just saw the ceiling by chance and saw some people floating around!

Yukino triumphantly snorts.

Were expecting more from you. Were relying on you

Leave it to me!

This ones so easy to get cocky.

Seki-san doesnt know the exact relationship between Yukino and us

She only understand that were taking Shirasaka Sousukes daughter as a hostage.

Well, as a hostage, Yukinos allowed to speak as much she wants

Shes somehow calming down, or rathershes blending with us, but

Shes big when Megu and Mana arent here.

Those two reject Yukino too strongly

Speaking of whichare your eyes fine now? Can you see now?

Yukino talks to Kouzuki Kenshi

Ah, its gotten better. Im already fine

Yukino has a kind girl nature in reality.

Its just that she thinks of herself as a special existence

She doesnt understand the gap with other people

Looking at Kouzuki Kenshis behavior earlierI noticed.

Kouzuki Kenshi also believes that hes special, and that he reigns over others for some reason.

Therefore, hes thinking he could bind us and be the head of Kouzuki groupsundergrounddivision

Instead of gaining our trust

Hes appealing with his ability, jumping over

Kouzuki Kenshi considers himself as a higher being than us from the beginning

Thats why hes convinced that were under him without any problems.

Yukino is the same.

She thinks that shes a special being than the other people from the beginning

Therefore shes bullying Megu

Shes horrible to her sister.

Yukino and Kouzuki Kenshi are similar.

Wellboth of them are children of distinguished families.

Theyre in half-hearted positions.

Jii-chan, Misuzu, and Ruriko, who are the born noblethey respond to other people properly as theres a clear responsibility to protect the house

A half-hearted persononly clings to the authority of the house, and do unnecessary things.

They can calmly shame their home just to protect their pride

Hm?

Huhwait, somethings wrong

Whats the matter, Yo-chan?

Nei-san looks at my face

The students and their parents have a completely similar character, dont they?

Yeah, for some reason, theyre all completely in sync!

Then that means?

Kouzuki Kenshi-sans father, Kouzuki Noboru-san is the same?

Kouzuki Noboryinduced by Miss Cordelia, he teamed with Cesario Viola but

We arent alikefather and I are completely different people

Kouzuki Kenshi says clearly, but

Completely alikeincluding their personalities!

Seki-san said

Seki-san is Jii-chans full time guard.

Shes likely to be guarding even in places where the executives gather

Her opinion should be correct

What about it, Yo-chan?

If you notice something then say something. It may become an important hint

Nei-san and Margo-san looks at me.

Well, I just thought of it. but

I look at Kouzuki Kenshi

TrueKenshi-san may have the ambition, and I think he does drastic actions

Kouzuki Kenshi belongs to the rising faction while having the blood of Kouzuki family

And hes devoted to be the coordinator of both groups.

Well its already known that he wants to be a boss of theundergroundof the Kouzuki Group.

Hes smart, likes to do various thingshe has the talent to move people as he want.

Kouzuki Kenshi is never incompetent

But

Kenshi-sanlet me ask you, if you were in your fathers shoeswould you plan to kill all the other executives in the current situation?

Kouzuki Kenshi

If I was my father then I wont do such nonsense. Apart from the strong hostile executivesits wrong to kill people who can be under me

RightKouzuki Kenshi looks down on others.

He thinks that its better to control foolish people one day.

Hes not an eccentric that would kill everyone.

I might want to dispose huge people who are hostile to me butIll just sell gratitude to the other people. I think itll give better long term results

Hes smart and talented and yet

He loses the reality because he over evaluates himself too much

Hes that type of human.

Thendont you think your father, Noboru-sans actions are a bit too much? Dont you think its strange to say that the leader of the traitors is your father?

No, Im sure that my father did it. Father is a man who doesnt like to be under other people

But, its possible that someone has induced him, isnt it?

Wellthats true, but

Let me ask you once againdo you think that Kouzuki Noboru-san is a person who would do such radical rebelion?

Kouzuki Kenshi thinks for a whilethen answered

Speaking of whichit feels wrong. The plan and action done by my father is certainly too extreme looking at the current situationfather is weak and a lowly person unlike me!

Noyoure also a lowly person!
