The Ritz-Carlton, the most luxurious hotel in Tokyo, is hosting a dazzling banquet attended by many dignitaries today.
As the head of the five-member National Public Safety Commission, Takumi Ozawa appeared in the hall at the same time as several other members including Eri Tezuka, chatting and laughing with celebrities from all walks of life, showing his magnanimity and broad-mindedness.
"This must be Mr. Liu, right? He's really a young man to be feared. Haha, at such a young age he's already serving as a planner for the military's special agency, Sari. Not bad, not bad, not bad." Looking at the young man opposite him, who was dressed in blue and holding a silk fan, Ozawa Takumi showed a gentle smile and praised him with three "not bad"s.
"There, there. As a junior, I still have a lot to learn from you seniors. Also, I would like to congratulate Commissioner Ozawa on his official assumption of the post of Chairman of the National Public Security Commission and entering the cabinet," Mr. Liu said very modestly.
In the past two years, Takumi Ozawa has been serving as the leader of the five-member group, but he was not the real chairman. It was only in the past few days that he officially became the chairman of the National Public Security Committee and became one of the core members of the cabinet.
"Haha, let's have a good chat again when we have the chance." Faced with the respect of the young man in front of him, Takumi Ozawa patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and greeted several other politicians.
"Chairman Ozawa, what do you think of that young man? His recent series of actions have left a deep impression on me." After some polite greetings, Tezuka Eri beside him asked meaningfully. As for this Liu, because of some reasons involving Tezuka, she had a very bad impression of him.
"This person is very capable, has a strong mind, and acts decisively and efficiently, but unfortunately he lacks the most important thing in a person. Perhaps it is because of this loss and lack that he becomes more and more extreme in his actions."
At this point, Ozawa Takumi shook his head. Although his son-in-law who loved to get into trouble often gave him a headache, in a sense, he was much better than Liu. In this Orphino crisis, the actions of his son-in-law made the chairman very satisfied.
The implication of Ozawa Takumi's words forced the other committee members to think deeply.
On the other side, the Onoue family.
"So, Mr. Onoue, you didn't know when you became Orphino, and most of your memories after losing your memory are about the various horrific experiments in that underground research institute?" Reiko, who was holding the recorder, couldn't help but frowned deeply. Although this was a big news, but... I always felt that something was wrong.
It turns out that at the beginning of the interview, Onoue did not directly answer questions about his so-called mental journey of transforming into No. 7, but instead revealed a special identity he had hidden: Orphino. Although he did not clearly state who was behind the underground experiment, based on the description, it cannot be inferred that it was an allusion to certain forces in the military.
In other words, according to Onoue, the appearance of creatures like Orphino is most likely a biological transformation experiment by the military!
Afterwards, the test subjects who were persecuted during the experiments began to rebel because they could not stand this cruel life anymore. Some of them broke away from the military control and began to unite secretly. They carried out drastic measures, just as the news said, to secretly lurk in human society and continuously increase the number of their companions
"This is really too much, unforgivable!"
When Onoue took off his shirt, revealing some of the shocking scars he had in the laboratory, Shinji, who had been silent before, suddenly clenched his fists in anger: "I didn't expect there would be such a thing!"
At this point, Shinji's favorability towards Onoue increased n times. Even in the face of such persecution, he could still actively rescue ordinary citizens and fight against those brutal unconfirmed life forms. Unkon, Mr. Onoue is really worthy of respect!
"Shinji, be quiet for a moment, Mr. Onoue, please continue..." Compared to the single-celled Shinji, Miss Reiko considered the contents of these stories more. After all, whether this story is true or not, once it is made public, it will inevitably cause an uproar...
Human body No. 7, you have really posed a difficult problem.
The rest of the story slowly begins with Onoue's accidental escape and his inadvertent acquisition of the power of Agito. It uses a very plain and real language to narrate the story of his subsequent confrontation with unidentified life forms and even his meeting and love with his wife.
"As for whether I will go to the southern base of the Self-Defense Forces to conduct experiments to remove Orphino's physique, of course I don't like my powerful strength, and my biggest wish is to return to being an ordinary person." Onoue said with a laugh.
"But... "
"In short, I believe in the sincerity over there."
After saying goodbye to Onoue, Miss Reiko returned to the magazine with a heavy heart. This interview record has now become a hot potato.
"Lingzi, what's wrong with you? Did the interview not go well?" The president and editor-in-chief of Ore Daily, Daisuke Taikubo, looked at Lingzi who looked strange, and couldn't help but asked nervously, "Did some kind of accident happen during this interview?"
Lingzi shook her head, handed over the recorder, and said helplessly: "Editor-in-chief, you can read it yourself..."
Turning on the recorder and listening to the interview with Onoue, Taikubo Daisuke's face went from being full of excitement at the beginning to gradually becoming solemn later on. The changes in his facial expressions made people laugh, but at the same time, they also discovered that like Reiko, he also discovered the hidden problems in this interview.
"This is really a tricky problem, eh..." He held his chin and thought for a long time. The interview content in front of him was definitely the best for the front page, but as a journalist, he was probably hesitant about the follow-up.
Just then, a phone call suddenly rang.
"Ah, I see... Yeah..." Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, Taikubo Daisuke's forehead was covered with sweat. After the call was disconnected, the energetic news anchor slowly spoke under the gaze of his subordinates: "Shimada, Shinji, Reiko, get ready for tomorrow's front page content, the legendary revelation of the past secrets of No. 7!"
"Editor-in-Chief, is this... true?"
"Yes, in short, I will be responsible for all the problems this time. Go and prepare, quickly!" As he spoke, the editor-in-chief was already in an excited state. Haha, such big news will definitely increase sales several times, or even dozens of times more, hahaha!
"yes!"
The next morning, a magazine interview news that shocked the entire country quickly occupied the headlines of major news a few hours later. The interview from human body No. 7 attracted the full attention of the public.
An invisible big hand is driving all of this.
Mr. Liu looked at the interview with Ore Daily and couldn't help but reveal a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, as if this interview with Onoue had not had any effect on him.
"Sir...this?" Yuzuo couldn't help but speak when he saw Liu still looking like that.
"Get ready to go out with me to meet No. 7." Mr. Liu slowly stood up, picked up the silk fan in his hand, and walked out of the southern base gracefully.
What kind of sparks will be created when Onoue and Liu meet for the first time
Not far from the Southern Base of the Self-Defense Forces, countless media were on high alert, looking forward to the so-called Ofiino. The most important target among them was the legendary figure who was said to have the identities of both No. 7 and Ofiino: Onoue Takumi!
"Who do you think will win this battle, teacher?"
In the Mori Garden, Ryoji Monomori looked at the direct interview on the TV station and turned to ask Mr. Watanabe who had now changed into formal attire.
ps: There will be less daily activities recently because the story has entered the main line. Onoue's purpose and Mr. Liu's plan will be revealed in the next chapter.
Ore Daily has the courage to publish the news because someone gave it the confidence. As for who it is, you can guess for yourself, haha.
I'm too lazy to say more about the rest~~~~
