"Don't move or we'll shoot," said the mercenary.
"Damn, I'm a mercenary, I thought the suits would make them think we were agents," thought the mercenary.
"Look at that guy's appearance, his dark circles, his hairstyle, his expression, his clothes," thought the mercenary.
"Ikuren, is that you?" asked the mercenary.
"Ikuren?" said Beyond, confused.
"It's not him, but they literally look so much alike in appearance and physically," thought the mercenary.
"Hey, we'll have to get out of here," said the mercenary.
"Okay," said the girl.
But before they could move, Mishiro grabbed the man by the face and slammed him to the ground, then the girl was caught by Selina, who held her by both arms.
"Hey, Gonkukin, why didn't you do anything?" said Selina.
"You were supposed to be watching outside," said Selina.
"Who said that? I don't remember," said Gonkukin.
Narrator: "He is Gonkukin Nishito. He is the one who was killing the other agents with the cards and had stayed outside to guard the entrance," said the narrator.
"Well, since you're here, I'll take care of this one," said Mishiro, grabbing the mercenary.
"If we want the girl to tell us how they got here, we have to teach her a lesson," said Mishiro, leaving with the man, who was dragging him by the arm.
"Well, we're alone now, so we'll just have to wait," said Selina, watching as Mishiro took the guy far away into the darkness.
"AAAAH!" a voice screamed at the top of its lungs.
"What's going on back there?" said the girl.
"Well, I'm done," said Mishiro, returning but carrying something in his hand.
"Well, let's just hope you know what you're going to do after you see this," said Mishiro, holding a skull in his hand.
"Say hello to your partner," said Mishiro, throwing the skull on the ground.
"AAAAH... Handal... Nooooo..." screamed the girl, looking at the skull.
"Well, are you going to do it or not?" said Mishiro, close to her face.
"You know what, I'll do this," said Mishiro, scratching her cheek.
Mishiro draws a little blood and then takes out a small glass cup to collect it, then throws it to Beyond, who catches it.
"Well, there you go," said Mishiro.
"Well, let's hope so," said Beyond, drinking the blood from the small cup.
Narrator: Beyond's ability is called Beyond Birthday. By digesting someone's blood, he can find out their date of birth, country, district, street, day, year, and age. He can also see what your personality is like in life, but he doesn't know your preferences in other areas, said the narrator, finishing his explanation of Beyond's ability.
"This girl's name is Nimishi Nakami. She was born in Japan and currently lives in the district of Hokkaido," said Beyond, his eyes turning slightly red.
"I see, but you don't know which direction her house is in," said Takeru.
"My ability doesn't allow me to know that. Remember that I also have my limitations," said Beyond.
Meanwhile, at the mercenary agency, two men were reading and drinking when one of them was seen sending messages to someone on his phone.
"I hope they've found those people," thought the other.
"Right after the battle, I left a tracker on the stitched one," thought Dos.
"Mishiro? Mishiro! Mishiroooo!" thought Dos, annoyed at remembering that name.
"I never thought I'd see that guy again, but I'll make him pay," thought Dos, remembering the image of a person.
—I will avenge Rozet's death someday. The old Dos couldn't defeat him, but now I will be the one to take care of it, Dos thought.
Narrator—"Rozetsu was Dos's former partner before he became Dos. Like Cuatro before he became Cuatro, they were a team of three because at that time there were teams of three when you were a corporal, but now you can only form teams of three as a soldier," said the narrator.
"Going back to what I was saying before, Rozetsu became a commander at the age of 24, considered the youngest before the future, and the record was broken some time later. Dos, before becoming Dos, became her assistant," said the narrator.
"But some time later, on a joint mission, many went to a place that at that time would be the two before the current two. They went to an abandoned warehouse, but who would have thought that the only one to come out alive would be the one who would become the current two," said the narrator.
"I wonder why they're not responding. I guess they must be dead," thought Dos.
"Even though they knew each of us, those simple corporals don't have the level to face him," thought Two.
Returning to the abandoned building covered in rubble, the girl was already dead, but the strange thing was that her body looked malnourished, as if everything inside her, her blood and everything else, had been absorbed.
She was lying in a corner like a disposable corpse while the others argued, while Beyond sat strangely with his feet on the chair, biting his nails.
"Well, it looks like Hokkaido will be an interesting place," said Takeru.
"We can't go there because of the Levitstar disaster. They must know about us by now, well, the group at least," said Lucien.
"For that, we'll just have to be prepared if we ever want to go," said Selina.
"We don't even have to go to Hokkaido, we don't have any business there, we just need to find a new hideout, that's all," said Selina.
"Well, we just have to find a place," said Gorosu.
"Hey, how about we go to Shinagawa? There's a place to hide there," said Gonkukin.
"That would work. Maybe we could open a bakery," said Takeru.
"That doesn't sound bad," said Rainon.
"Of course not, idiot!" shouted Takeru.
"Can't you see what we look like? Who would trust us?" said Takeru.
"Damn, I was already thinking about how to make them," said Rainon with a sad face.
"But it doesn't seem like a bad idea," said Chronos.
"Maybe we'll go to Shinagawa to hide there for a while," said Chronos.
"We'll figure out the rest later," said Chronos.
"Okay, it's decided. Let's go to Shinagawa," said Takeru.
"Wait, there's a problem," said Lucien.
"How did those mercenaries manage to find us?" said Lucien.
"Maybe because of this," said Mishiro, showing a tracking device in his hand.
"You had that all this time?" said Takeru.
"Wow, I'm really surprised," said Gonkukin.
"Yes, I know about this. I only kept it because someone I know gave it to me, but it's useless now that they know about it," said Mishiro as he licked his lips and closed his hand, destroying the tracker.
"Well, that's one less thing to worry about," said Lucien.
"How about we go now? I see some interesting people to recruit right there," said Mishiro as he circled a photo of a wanted criminal in a newspaper.
While that was happening, he saw his phone disappear from the location where he had sent those two captains. He sighed, turned off his phone, got up from his chair, and walked down the hallways.
He found a vending machine, inserted a bill, took out a grape-flavored soda, drank it, and then found Four, who also went to the machine.
"Wow, I didn't expect to see you looking so worried, especially since you're the most relaxed of us all," said Four.
"Hey, Sandra, you remember Rozetsu, right?" said Two.
"What did I tell you about using my real name? And yes, I remember him," said Four.
"What does Rozetsu have to do with this? You can't get over it, can you? I know he was our friend, but you know how this job is," said Four.
"You don't have to hold a grudge. You know you can talk about it if you want," said Four.
"Rozetsu died because of my cowardice," said Two, interrupting Four.
"It wasn't cowardice, you were just weak in front of them," said Four.
"I was just one person, but maybe it's better if I tell you," said Two.
"But what are you talking about?" asked Four.
"I never told you what happened on that mission, even though it's been eight years since it happened," said Two.
"But I'd better tell you what really happened there so you know the whole story," said Two.
Eight years ago, on July 7, 2072, outside the abandoned warehouse, a group of people had gathered because of rumors that people had disappeared in that place.
"Well, we'd better go in and see what's inside," said Two.
"There are many reports of people disappearing here, including some of our colleagues," said Two.
"We'd better go and see," said Two, stepping forward.
"Hey, let's wait a minute," shouted a voice.
"There's no point, I'm going in," said another voice behind him.
"Well, how about we go in with the others, what do you think, Enzo?" said that person.
"We were always going to go in anyway, idiot. At least think about your jokes before you speak, Rozetsu," said Enzo before becoming the current Two.
Rozetsu and Enzo enter the warehouse with the others while a cold atmosphere hangs in the air. As they enter, they see a lizard entering through the grate, but a kind of plant that looks like a tentacle catches it and takes it away, leaving only the animal's bones behind.
As the plants disappear back into the ground, a pigeon flying by is caught by the same plants and dragged down to the ground, where it is devoured, leaving only the animal's bones behind.
