[Code Geass] Irregular 20

Chapter 20 – 19. Zero

Karen must have already been infected with Gears, so Lelouch’s Gears should be immune now. Lelouch wasn’t the only person with the power of Gears, so I couldn’t let my guard down against Gears, but Karen, who was immune to the most terrifying Gears in my situation, was a talent I had to attract somehow.

There are two areas of concern. The story that will inevitably change if Karen distances herself from Lelouch and the fact that I will be able to seduce Karen.

I looked around at the Japanese who were collapsing and crawling. It looked like the place where Kabakura was run before, seven years ago, when Britannia hadn’t invaded Japan yet.

It’s like a room salon in the real world, but there are no rooms.

A man sprawled across the stage on one side was looking at me with a terrified face.

“Monster… Monster.”
“Do you think you are a monster too?”

That word. This is the highest compliment for me! Having wielded my strength against the Britannia soldiers without limit, I knew exactly what the consequences would be if I hit a person with all my might.

In fact, any number of opponents who are not armed with firearms can be beaten like catching mice.

At the beginning of the story, I had to quickly and unknowingly intervene in the story and lay the groundwork to take my advantage. These guys were the guys that would be the first base.

Matsumoto Gumi.

Shinjukugeto is a slum area, and of course the resistance is the strongest, but there were also many trash gathered for a different purpose than them.

Not those who fight for the liberation of Japan, but those who do not hesitate to commit illegal acts for the purpose of their own comfort and prosperity.

I intervened without any influence as much as possible because I didn’t know where the story would bounce if I messed with the Resistance, but these bastards didn’t matter. Besides, even in the world of animation, most places where people live are similar.

Since the Resistance itself has not yet received proper support, it is difficult to dominate and influence the Shinjukugeto with their own capabilities.

It was said that there was nothing short of creating a new force in a corner now, and one of the guys who had already formed a gang like that was this Matsumoto Gumi.

“You. What was your name?”

Apparently, when they came in, they said, “You look down on anyone in the Matsumoto-gumi!”

“The Matsumoto Gumi… Shinji Matsumoto.”
“It sounds like a name you would be good at piloting a robot with.”

The last name is a bit different, but it is a name that you will hear Walkman while squatting in the corner of the bed if your heart is hurt.

That’s what happened. All-back hair. He’s a middle-aged man with long sideburns and a scary beard, but that’s true.

“I take over Matsumoto Gumi.”
“Crazy…”

At my confident declaration, Shinji smiled as if he was pathetic. Is this kid laughing? I felt like I had to say this too, so I did it with embarrassment, but I could feel my face heating up as I laughed openly in my face.

“This bastard… Do you really want to go back?”
“Looking at what you’re doing, there’s no such thing as a kid. If you knock them all down and ask them to come under your command, who would have known they would come in? Did you think the people here would bow their heads just for that reason?”

That was right.
Okay. Catchy words. I realized that this plan had failed. In fact, from the time I was about to do it, I thought it was long. No matter how much the logic of power goes back to the Shinjukugeto, can you come over like this? It would be a lie if I said there was no anxiety.

“Your first plan failed.”
“Hmm? Do you have any other plans?”
“Yes. For now, you don’t care.”

These guys are no longer needed in the yard of failure. I approached Shinji. Perhaps sensing something unusual in my atmosphere, Shinji, vaguely aware of his future, said in bewilderment.

“Ruler… Wait a minute! I won’t tell anyone. Money… Yes! I’ll give you money too! We will cooperate as much as possible!”

Sensing that he was fucked up, Shinji spoke quickly, and I laughed. Cooperation? It would be nice to have it, but if you think about whether you really need it, well? Do you get experience points when you kill them?

“You humiliated me.”
“What… I apologize if I have offended you! Sorry! Sorry! Kheuk!”
“I do not need!”

When I approached the lying guy and hit it hard with my fist, his stomach dented! It was dug. He died without anything to confirm. It’s strange to be alive after being hit by this.

What to do I realized that it is impossible to increase power by rule-of-thumb. I can’t say that there’s really no place where it really comes under me if I keep poking around, but I didn’t want to go to the trouble of rolling over. Doesn’t that mean you have to knock someone down until they give in?

If possible, the best way to start with a two-man team is to lure Inoue somehow, but it would be hard to expect Inoue to come over to me so easily.

What… I have to admit that in the world of animation, there are parts that I look down on. I thought that it would creep in on its own if it was attacked by force, but the reality is that there is no doubt. However, it is not that there is no harvest at all. Matsumoto Gumi collapsed because of me, and the boss just fell behind. That means that this hideout here and now is mine.

During the Shinjuku massacre, the house I lived in was blown away, so I felt a bit lost, but I thought I could live here from now on. There are many sofas, and if you go upstairs, there are many rooms and many beds, probably because it was originally designed for prostitution. The biggest harvest is that these cubs have saved up some money.

When I brought the paroo from the storage room and opened the safe in the corner by force, it was filled with quite a lot of gold items, ledgers, and a bunch of Britannia pounds.

This will give you some relief from the money problem.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
“How are you?”
“Ah! Long time no see?”

It’s only been 3 days since we met… ?
I was bewildered, but I felt grateful to Inoue for welcoming me. Inoue’s eyes were shining brightly, as if it was because of something I asked her to do the other day.

“Is there any progress?”
“I made a launcher! But there is a problem”

In response to my question, Inoue waited and showed me a mechanical device the size of my fist. Hmm… I’m not sure how.

“What problem?”
“The ejection power is too weak. The anchor has to be shot hard enough to stick into the wall, but it’s possible to shoot it with explosives, but the sound is so loud that it’s hard to keep the airway concealed, and if you use a coil, it’s too bulky to produce that much power. It might be possible if you use Sakuradite, but it’s not something you can get with money…”

Hmm. I vaguely understand what you mean. And admired My eyes weren’t wrong. Inoue is an indispensable talent.

“It would be better to catch the strands by using a coil. There are a lot of things to do, but the most important thing is to be quiet when you’re infiltrating.”
“However, if you reduce the volume to the extent that people wear it, the power to shoot the anchor will weaken. Because it becomes difficult to attach multiple coils. Won’t the anchor stick to the wall?”
“You said that it would be possible if you saved Sakuradite, right? If so, why don’t you use the hook method instead of the anchor method until you get the sakuradite?”
“There was such a thing!”

At my invitation, Inoue clapped his hands and liked it. Every time he shrugged her shoulders, his heart fluttered. Bust morphing is good in this house.

“Did you decide what to do with the wire?”
“There are several, choose the one you like. Wire used for dog collars, industrial wire made of general iron, and carbon fiber wire. I said in descending order.”

Dog leash?

Do dog leashes use wires these days? Wasn’t it a chain? Or plain string.

“Is it carbon fiber that is tough?”
“Huh. But it’s also expensive. In case of unlucky entanglement, the user has to cut it off, which is not easy.”

… I don’t think a wire made of ordinary iron would be easy either.

“Is there any way to make it easier to hang up?”
“The cost is not enough. It’s a part that can be solved by attaching an ultrasonic cutter to the ejection port, but it will cost more than the cost you gave? Besides, if you cut it off, you won’t be able to use it right away. You’ll even lose the hook.”

It didn’t matter, because it was better than not being able to run away because you couldn’t hang up in a situation where you could die from the wire right away. The money problem was also relaxed because the Matsumoto Gumi was destroyed.

“How far can you go with this amount?”

Inoue’s eyes widened when I handed out the rest, except for the amount I could sustain for a while.

“Where did you get so much money? Is this enough to consider Sakuradite?”
“Is that enough?”

Because of its effectiveness, Sakuradite is such a great mineral that Britannia invaded Japan. This is because it is the only mineral that causes superconductivity at room temperature.
Therefore, since it is treated as a strategic material in most countries, it was no different from picking stars from the sky for ordinary people to find it.

Naturally, there were cases where small amounts were traded illegally, and Inoue seemed to be talking about this case.
Because it was illegal, it was outrageously expensive than the current market rate.

“Do you know where to get it?”
“I know. It’s a bit dangerous.”
“Then I will go.”
“Are you okay? The more I go… “

Inoue put on a worried expression at my words. Maybe because she’s an extra? She’s not as beautiful as Karen and the other heroines, but she’s also a beauty.

She is energized by receiving the beauty’s concern.

“Like I said before, you don’t have to risk yourself. Either way, we’re partners. As long as you safely do what you have to do, I will be satisfied with that.”
“Huh… Okay. Then I will find out and contact you.”
“Do it wirelessly. Do I have a walkie-talkie?”
“What is the channel?”
“12-5”
“Okay. I will contact you inside tonight.”
“Okay”

I broke up with Inoue. 12-4 is Karen, 12-5 is Inoue. It feels good because it seems like you only carry a girl’s number on your cell phone.
