Chapter 565: Intention to Go Alone
Chapter 565: Intention to Go Alone
Sometimes, it is easy for a woman to see a man's true nature, like now.
Looking at Shota's hurried back as he left, Sayuri, who was hugging Xiaohua, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Auntie, why are you laughing?"
Looking at the soft and tender little Hua Rao, Sayuri couldn't help but kiss her hard on the cheek.
"Because your father doesn't want you anymore."
"No, Dad won't abandon me."
Looking at Xiao Huarao's confident look, he didn't cry at every turn like other children.
This made Sayuri feel a little curious, and she couldn't help but ask:
"Why does Xiao Hua Rao feel this way?"
"Because I can feel that my father still likes me very much."
"Why do you feel that way?"
"because this."
As he spoke, a ball of green light appeared on Xiao Huarao's hand.
"It told me."
Looking at the power of Tokiwa in Xiaohua's hand, Sayuri's last hope was completely eliminated.
"Hey~"
"Auntie, why are you sighing again?"
Looking at Xiao Huarao who looked innocent and concerned about her, Sayuri couldn't help but kiss her soft cheek.
"Because of my aunt, I have one more competitor."
"Is it my mother?"
Listening to Xiaohua's unquestionable guess, Sayuri couldn't help but look at the child in surprise.
"You are really an amazing child."
"Aunt, are you praising me? I'm very happy."
Looking at Xiaohuarao's innocent smile, Sayuri felt her heart was healed.
Holding Xiaohua in her arms and walking around, watching the little birds flying past the window, Sayuri couldn't help but feel emotional.
"Forget it. What's the point of arguing about that? It's already happened. It's useless. As for the future, I will take care of it.
……
I am free, too.”
Thinking this in her heart, Sayuri looked at the new generation of life in front of her and gently kissed her on the cheek. A noble and great mission surrounded her heart.
……
"Aqiu!"
"What's wrong? Can a leader catch a cold?"
Daigo, who was sitting next to Shota, spoke teasingly.
Shota wiped his nostrils with his index finger and felt like someone was plotting against him behind his back, but maybe he really had a cold. After all, he had been feeling a little dizzy and his behavior had been a little abnormal lately.
Maybe it's time to take a break, but let's finish the current matter first.
"Okay, let's stop talking about other things and get back on track.
What is the current situation in the Hoenn region? How many enemy troops are there?"
Hearing the question raised by Shota, Daigo put away his joking thoughts and his face became serious.
“The current situation in the Hoenn region is horrific. A large number of innocent civilians have been forced to leave their homes, lost their livelihoods, and are now in extreme poverty.
The once prosperous city has now become dilapidated, and the streets are filled with despair and helplessness. People wander around, desperately looking for a glimmer of hope for survival, but they find helplessly that no matter where they go, there is no place for them to stay.
Fortunately, in the Sinnoh region, the members of Team Lightning, led by Zhenxing, Huoxing and Suixing, are taking active action. They have successfully raised a considerable amount of supplies in the Sinnoh region and have begun to transport them to the Hoenn region in batches.
These supplies will become a lifeline for the people in the Hoenn region, giving them a glimmer of hope.
Not only that, many people with lofty ideals and other enthusiastic people have also joined this aid operation, demonstrating a spirit of selfless dedication.
At the same time, the Supreme Council represented by Takeran quickly passed a series of resolutions and policies, deciding to carry out trade exchanges and cooperation with the Hoenn region, injecting new vitality into the development of the two regions.
All of this is thanks to you, Your Excellency."
Hearing Daigo addressing him and even adding the honorific "you", Shota felt uncomfortable.
"Don't look at me like that, Your Excellency, you deserve this.
It was not until the son of a civilian came thousands of miles to kill the son of another civilian and the real war broke out that I gradually began to realize how cruel the world is and how ridiculous and insignificant my previous narrow personal emotions were.
Huh~"
Zifuchi Mujin and Mikoli looked at Daigo with red eyes, forced back the tears in their eyes, and then continued to speak.
"I've said too much. Let's get back to the final point and talk about the strength and distribution of the enemy's remaining troops.
According to the news from the anti-suppression troops, their commander, Youdeng Jiaozi, did not die in the final destruction plan codenamed "Fireworks".
Now, relying on her status as the commander-in-chief in name only, she has connected the troops stationed in dozens of cities that she had previously occupied, and stationed them in Shuijing City, the largest foreign trade port in our Fengyuan region.
It was obvious that she had some considerations. This would not only allow her King Whale Fleet to be put to use, but also block an important channel for us to communicate with other regions.
According to reports from dozens of cities that had been invaded before, the army she led burned, killed, looted and seized a large amount of supplies in these cities, and now all of them have been transported to Shuijing City, which is enough for them to squander in Jing City for more than a year.
It was obvious that she wanted to fight a protracted war with us, and we really couldn't afford it.
Although assistance from the Sinnoh region has been mentioned before, this assistance is just a drop in the bucket for the vast Hoenn region and cannot solve the urgent needs.
Due to the breakdown of various supply chains, food production in Qiuye Town will have to wait until next year, and we no longer have much reserve grain.
Therefore, the only thing we have to do is to quickly eliminate these remaining forces whose strength should not be underestimated.
However, both spiritually and materially, we can no longer use "fireworks".
Next, I will trouble you again, Your Excellency."
Looking at the gazes cast over him by Zifuchi Hibiscus, Mikoli, and Daigo.
Sitting in the first seat, Shota tapped the table rhythmically with his five fingers, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Finally the rhythm of the knocking stopped, and Shota slowly opened his eyes.
"Since part of the cause was caused by me, let me end it.
In that case, there is no need for the army this time."
