Chapter 587 – #5-27 the Hero Captain Feels Miserable (Mer, Club, Coco) (1)
… … …
… …
…
Mer, who has formed a temporary alliance with Olivia, is currently leaving her room and wandering around the hideout.
Olivia is now acting separately.
『I have to do everything I have to do. I’ll clean up now, and we’ll talk about escaping later.』
After saying that, she walked away.
She hasn’t come back since, so right now I don’t know when I’ll ever see her again.
‘That woman, she was completely tainted by this organization…’
It’s definitely because of brainwashing or something like that.
However, before she left, she finished cleaning Mer’s room, and at that time, she could see a happy expression on her face, as if she felt rewarded.
Well, what should I say.
She saw that the bad-tempered woman was acting as a housekeeper (in a short uniform that made her panties visible even when she walked) and looked loyal.
To be honest, Mer felt complicated in many ways.
She was someone she hated so much, but after seeing her like that, I guess she lost her venom.
I guess she wasn’t worth hating.
Also, for Mer, who saw through Olivia’s nature and personality in her own way… Thinking back, she was also a creepy sight.
She is a woman who has high pride and cannot tolerate being under others.
Even though she was being treated in a way that would normally have caused her to bite her tongue and die, she was actually happy…
The transformation was horrifying.
‘Me too.’
‘Me too, if I stay here for a long time… That’s how it will happen.’
‘No, maybe already to some extent–‘
A negative thought occurred to her for a moment, but Mer shook her head to shake it off.
Brainwashing is a scary thing.
Before she knew it, her common sense and her own precious things were being overwritten and remodeled to suit her…
Most of the time she doesn’t even realize it.
She can’t feel anything strange.
I can’t feel any discomfort.
She takes it for granted.
That is the most fearful and scary thing.
Although No. 13 and his colleagues seem to use special tools for brainwashing.
However, even without the use of tools, there are already many types of brainwashing in the world.
We know from Merdo news and rumors that people such as fraudsters and cult leaders use such methods.
And how incorrigible and beyond common sense brainwashed people become.
Because they have been brainwashed, they do not realize that it is strange.
People who have become like that usually don’t change anymore, no matter what people around them say.
It seems that there is no way to escape by one’s own power.
And.
Himself too… It might end up like that.
No, maybe it has already happened.
‘… Even if you think negatively, it’s no use.’
‘For now, let’s do what we can.’
Mer turned her thoughts that had been focused on the inside outward.
* * *
Yesterday, I ended up not being able to properly investigate the room because I had to talk to Olivia and investigate the room again.
Because No. 13 came late at night, there was no time to explore leisurely.
So, the day passed, and when she was a little freer in the morning, she came out of her room and wandered around like this.
The hideout of the villain organization [Abyss] Was larger than expected.
There were some neglected parts here and there, but the rooms that showed signs of use were neatly cleaned.
Now that I think about it, it seems like there are not only Olivia but several other people in charge of cleaning this hideout.
Probably Olivia’s subordinates.
‘The windows are thoroughly lined with iron plates… It seems difficult to escape through the window.’
Is it just this floor?
The windows located throughout the hallway are all lined with crude iron plates.
It may have been to guard against intrusion from outside, or it may have been done to prevent the subject restrained in this hideout from escaping.
Thinking back to the underground detention room where Mer was held until recently, it seems that this is not the first time a prisoner has been imprisoned in this hideout.
Maybe it’s Rahera or something… Besides that, perhaps there were several prisoners who were in a similar situation to her.
Besides that, this is a villain organization.
There may be times when a battle breaks out following friction with a hostile organization, and whenever that happens, there are bound to be prisoners who need to be detained.
Of course, there is no exact basis.
But if that’s the case, it’s not good news for Mer.
The fact that we have already taken prisoners several times means that we are prepared in many ways for taking prisoners.
Maybe the reason the window was blocked like this was because there was a prisoner in the past who tried to escape through the window…
―With that feeling.
Mer continued his search by wandering around the hallways of this floor for a while.
However, it is not a large enough place that you need to walk around for several hours.
However, as the search proceeded while considering detailed checkpoints for escape, it inevitably took a long time.
And unfortunately, it was unclear whether he could say that he had achieved any results even after completing his exploration of this floor.
I couldn’t find anything that could be a clue to escape, and if there was anything that could be considered an achievement, it was that I once again discovered several cameras installed throughout the floor.
While there are surveillance cameras installed openly, there are also those that are secretly hidden as if they are fake.
It took almost half a day yesterday to find the camera and wiretapping device in the room.
It was scary to even imagine how much time it would take and how much work it would take to find all the cameras on this floor.
‘Still, we need to understand it thoroughly. Let’s take some time and find out…’
By the way.
To the extent of investigating this floor, no other good information was found.
There are no special facilities, just a series of rooms similar to the ones in which he was imprisoned.
It is believed that this floor itself is probably a place to keep prisoners.
Among prisoners of war, those who need special treatment… Could it be that it was targeted at.
Otherwise, there would be no need to have an underground detention room and create a separate floor like this.
‘… This probably means that the escape measures on this floor are more stringent.’
‘Then what about the other floors…’
If so.
Wouldn’t other floors be a bit more lax in their escape measures?
This is not a detention facility in the first place, but a place where members of the villain organization [Abyss] Live.
In that case, there is a possibility that there are many gaps in the living space.
Moreover, for a building of this size, it is expected that there will naturally be quite a few floors, both up and down.
In fact, when I was moved from the basement detention room to this floor, I had climbed quite a few floors.
‘There is hope.’
However, if there is a problem.
You have to take the stairs to get out of this floor.
Mer returned to the stairs she had found while exploring a little while ago.
There are iron bars and an iron gate that does not allow anyone to go outside.
As a test, I grabbed the door handle and pulled or pushed, but it didn’t budge.
This is because the electronic lock is securely engaged.
‘I can’t open this door by myself.’
If only I could use magic freely.
In that case, an iron gate like this would have been crumpled like a piece of paper.
But now Mer’s abilities have been sealed.
The moment I tried to think of writing it, it was as if she had forgotten how to move her limbs… I can’t think of a way to use magic.
It is possible to barely use magical power to strengthen the body to some extent, but it is not enough to break down this iron door.
With the amount of reinforcement available to me right now, there is no place I can use it other than slightly increasing my endurance during sex.
And if that happens, it will inevitably be inevitable that an uproar will occur.
In that case, number 13 or the person waiting will come running right away.
‘… Well, okay.’
‘It’s not like there is no way. ‘Let’s end today’s exploration here.’
Mer made that decision.
Searching further than this seems meaningless.
If you want to do this next time, you will have no choice but to wait for Olivia, who promised her cooperation.
She’s not sure how much she can trust Olivia…
* * *
It was at that exact time when Mer was about to go back to her room.
『―――』
『―――』
What you hear is the sound of footsteps coming up, and people’s voices.
From the stairs beyond the iron gate, I heard someone coming up.
Mer was embarrassed and wondered if she should hurry back to her room, but she shook her head and remained standing in front of her bars.
In the first place, she said she could roam around as she pleased in No. 13, didn’t she give her permission?
Even if I left her room and stayed here, there was nothing to worry about.
And even more than that, there was something that bothered me.
‘This voice…’
This voice did not belong to the [Abyss] Member she had identified so far.
Moreover, it was a familiar voice.
Therefore, Mer stood awkwardly in front of the iron bars to check the subject of the voice.
Eventually, No. 13, who was coming up the stairs as if he was about to pass this floor, spotted Mer.
“Uh? Mer, what are you doing standing there?”
Number 13 asked a question, but Mer did not bother to answer it.
She just looked at the women on either side of him – heroes with familiar faces.
“
Club… And, was it Coco?
”
“That bastard’s leader and his subordinates… The heroes of the 7th Division are truly amazing.”
Mer looks at them beyond the iron bars with her hostile eyes.
The two people cling to both sides of No. 13, their bodies being massaged and molested by No. 13’s arms and hands that embrace them.
However, Mer glared at the two heroes, Club and Coco, who had expressions that they did not dislike at all.
