Major Kazama glanced at the recorder under the table. There, a small recorder was working. It was a recorder specially processed by the military, so even S-rank magic could not detect its presence.
He had recorded the entire conversation, and if Kudou turned against him, he could hand the recording over to Baifeng Uesugi, which would put Kudou in a difficult position.
Just as Tobayashi was leading Tatsuya Shiba to the headquarters of the No Head Dragon's branch in Sakura Country, his terminal rang.
"Hey, Moshi Moshi."
Although he was curious about who could contact this terminal, since it was a military terminal with security measures in place, making it virtually impossible for anyone to reach it, Tatsuya Shiba still answered the call.
" Tatsuya, you don't need to go. I've already taken care of them all."
Baifeng Uesugi's familiar voice came from the terminal.
"Yes, elder brother."
Although Tatsuya Shiba very surprised, he understood after thinking about it for a while. Not only was he Miyuki Shiba's protector, but Baifeng Uesugi was as well. Moreover, compared to Shiba Miyuki, Baifeng Uesugi cared more about Miyuki Shiba's safety.
"What's wrong?" Tobayashi asked, puzzled.
"Turn around, there's no need to go any further," Tatsuya Shiba said after hanging up the terminal.
"What? What happened? Why are we turning back? We don't need to go that way anymore?" Tobayashi asked, puzzled.
But then she suddenly remembered the flames she had found outside the Star-Picking Competition venue in the Mirage Bat, and she immediately understood.
"Yes, no need to go." Tatsuya Shiba nodded in agreement.
"Did someone go ahead and take care of them? Let me guess, was it Heavenly Demon Star Tewei?" Tobayashi laughed.
Heavenly Demon Star is Baifeng Uesugi's codename, and this codename was not chosen randomly. In a previous battle, Baifeng Uesugi single-handedly annihilated hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, thus earning him the Heavenly Demon Star Baifeng Uesugi.
"How did you know?" Tatsuya Shiba asked in surprise.
He had never told Tobayashi about Baifeng Uesugi's information, but now she could say it accurately, which puzzled Tatsuya Shiba.
"Yesterday at the Mirage Bat, they lifted the restrictions on the enhanced humans, seemingly intending to make a move on the spot. However, by the time we arrived, they had already been dealt with, and even now, black flames still linger at the scene," Tobayashi explained.
"I see," Tatsuya Shiba replied.
At the same time, I understood why Baifeng Uesugi suddenly wanted to leave for a while yesterday, and why he left in such a hurry.
It turned out that they had discovered the enemy was present, which was why they rushed to leave the scene.
"Hmph, that's not fair of you. Now that Heavenly Demon Star Tewei is back, why did you keep it from me?" Tobayashi said unhappily.
"I'm sorry, I only found out about my older brother's identity when I was in school. Although he's in the same grade as me, he insists on keeping his identity a strict secret," Tatsuya Shiba explained.
"Oh, I see. So Bai Feng is at First High School, and in the same grade as you." Tobayashi said with a sly smile.
"Uh, were you trying to trick me into revealing information?" Tatsuya Shiba, puzzled.
However, by the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. Her next sentence revealed Baifeng Uesugi's identity.
"Among the first-year students at First High School, there are very few boys participating in the Nine Schools Competition, and only one has a mysterious background: Baifeng Uesugi."
Tobayashi analyzed.
"But he's really bold, using his original name,"
"It's just a homophone. Although it's risky, it's really effective. You didn't find out from me, did you?" Tatsuya Shiba said.
Now that she knows Baifeng Uesugi's identity, Tatsuya Shiba no longer needs to hide it from her, and Tatsuya Shiba trusts her completely.
"That's true. When I first saw his information, I did feel that the pronunciation of the names was similar, but I didn't think about it in that way. I have to admire how clever Bai Feng is," Tobayashi remarked.
However, when she thought about what her maternal grandfather Retsu Kudou, had entrusted to her, she felt a sense of powerlessness.
She didn't tell anyone about this; it remained hidden deep within her heart.
She has always been unclear about her feelings for Baifeng Uesugi Baifeng Uesugi, perhaps because of the things Retsu Kudou had told her, which made her very cautious about these feelings.
She feared that her feelings stemmed from Retsu Kudou's orders, rather than from her own heart.
"What's wrong? You look terrible." Tatsuya Shiba, puzzled.
"It's nothing, I just want to meet with Bai Feng. I wonder if you could pass on my message for me, Tatsuya?" Kyoko Fujibayashi asked.
"Can't you contact your older brother?" Tatsuya Shiba, puzzled.
"Yes, his terminal is encrypted, so strangers can't contact him. If I go to him in person, things might get complicated. After all, you always have members of the Ten Master Clans around you. If they figure out my identity, it could cause unnecessary trouble," Kyoko Fujibayashi explained.
"Alright, I'll pass on the message for you, but I can't guarantee whether my elder brother will agree or not," Tatsuya Shiba nodded in agreement.
He largely agreed with Kyoko Fujibayashi's considerations, since the military's unauthorized appearance at the academy would indeed cause unnecessary trouble.
He was just a little curious. Kyoko Fujibayashi's expression had been somewhat unusual since they started talking about Baifeng Uesugi, and now she was even going to meet Baifeng Uesugi in person.
Furthermore, when Baifeng Uesugi was still in the military, Kyoko Fujibayashi Baifeng Uesugi avoided him.
"Thank you so much, Tatsuya," Kyoko Fujibayashi said gratefully.
Whether Baifeng Uesugi agrees to see her or not is not something Tatsuya Shiba can decide, and she knows that, but she feels that Baifeng Uesugi will definitely see her.
After all, that little SP used to love to cling to her leg and grope her all the time...
Kyoko Fujibayashi was lost in her memories.
Her mind kept replaying the things she and Baifeng Uesugi did at the military headquarters. She both loved and hated this little SP who always liked to take advantage of her.
