Secretary Noguchi didn't waste time arguing with the French national who was making a big deal out of his authority. Instead, he turned and bowed deeply to Li Bai and the others, saying, "I'm very sorry. Please wait here for a moment while I go find Ambassador Mitsui and get an authorization document."
"It's all right, it's all right. Rules are rules, and we understand. We'll wait here."
Secretary Xu from the Chinese Embassy, who was coordinating with Secretary Noguchi, said that he understood. He had heard that the Senkai Association had been causing quite a stir in Africa. The Japanese weren't the only ones to suffer losses this time; before this, they had nearly dragged the Chinese into trouble as well.
When all was said and done, these far-right extremists were a bunch of lunatics. Wasn't a bowl of Yoshinoya or Matsuya beef rice every day good enough for them?
"Please wait!"
Secretary Noguchi hurried off at once.
He left Li Bai, Secretary Xu from the Chinese Embassy, and the others (and monsters) outside Yamamoto Takeo's hospital room.
"Japanese? What should I call you?"
Li Bai sized up the French peacekeeping soldier who had gone toe-to-toe with Noguchi Wu. Technically speaking, they were colleagues.
Setting nationality aside, they were both paid by the same employer.
"Sorry, I'm French now, and I serve in the peacekeeping force. Please call me Agli Fujita. My original name was Fujita Seishiro."
The French-Japanese peacekeeper didn't seem to have any ill will toward Li Bai. He introduced himself quite formally.
"Agli, hmm. Good thing it's French. I'm Li Bai—the Li Bai who wrote 'Sunlight shines on Incense Burner Peak, and purple smoke rises.' I'm a doctor with the Chinese peacekeeping force in Somalia."
Li Bai introduced himself too, making his peacekeeping-force affiliation clear.
