BXBX NOVEL Chapter 621 - Pacific Ocean
"Miss Elysia, where are we going now?" Eun-Hee stole several glances in the rearview mirror.
"Ah, thank you for today, Miss Eun-Hee. You\'ve been a great help to us. You must be feeling tired and sleepy, let\'s go to a nearby hotel." Elysia put her hands together.
"Mm, all right. I know a good hotel here. Let\'s go there." Eun-Hee does feel sleepy. She was afraid that she would fall ill if she missed another night\'s sleep.
They arrived at a hotel building and booked a double room. After they took turns to shower, they pampered themselves by lying on soft beds.
"Uhm, are you going to sleep sharing the bed? I\'m fine if I sleep on the couch." Eun-Hee felt a bit shocked when Sylvia got into Elysia\'s bed. They had that kind of close relationship?
"No worry, Miss Eun-Hee. It\'s been a pretty tiring day. I\'ll switch the lamp to sleep lighting. Good night." Elysia turned off the room\'s light and turned on the lamp on the nightstand between the two beds.
Eun-Hee opened her mouth as she had something to talk about, but she then heaved a subtle sigh because Elysia seemed to be about to sleep. "Good night to you too."
She then looked at her smartphone. Her first step as a detective got off to a great start, although she did a job that deviated a little from her original desk job.
Her current task was finished, and Elysia had paid in full for her work. Still, she felt a little lost for some reason, considering Elysia and Sylvia were going back to Japan tomorrow.
The gravity and comfort of the bed slowly dragged Eun-Hee into sleep as she could no longer hold back her sleepiness.
The day changed, and it was already four in the morning. Elysia, Vanessa, and Sylvia were ready to leave so early because they didn\'t want to explain anything to anyone about their departure. After all, they weren\'t going to board a plane to Japan.
\'Wait a moment. Let me leave a farewell note and a small gift for Miss Eun-Hee as a small token of our appreciation. To survive as a strong, independent woman is quite difficult, and I respect her tenacity in her career.\' Elysia wrapped up the three green spirit stones and left a paper on the nightstand.
\'You are so considerate and kind, Ely. She actually wants something from us, but so be it. You\'ve also considered and prepared it since last night, right? You\'re lucky to have Ely\'s attention, Pyon-pyon.\' Sylvia glanced at the sleeping girl with a smirk.
\'All right, let\'s go.\' Elysia stretched out her hand, and Vanessa jumped into her arms. She and Sylvia left the room silently.
Two hours later, Eun-Hee just woke up and was a bit surprised to find herself alone in the room. She checked the other rooms, but her clients seemed to have left.
"Ah, you\'re an inspector in the professional world, but why did you allow yourself to be so careless and defenseless, Eun-Hee? Luckily, your current clients are good girls, otherwise, uuh, that\'s scary." Eun-Hee hugged herself. It was supposed to be a light sleep, but she fell into a deep sleep instead.
"Aa-aah, but I haven\'t had time to ask for a favor from Miss Elysia. It was a wasted opportunity. Wait, I still have her phone number, don\'t I? Ehehe... I have connections with a top-tier individual, right? Hmm?" Eun-Hee felt excited again, but she accidentally saw a paper and a tiny pouch with a ribbon on the nightstand. She went there to check.
After reading the polite farewell letter, she opened that tiny pouch by pulling the ribbon. To her surprise, it was three pieces of green spirit stone! She got it for free just as a form of gratitude!?
"She already knows my request without me having to speak? I don\'t know what she\'s thinking... The mindset of someone like her is beyond my comprehension. Am I the only one unable to notice it? Really cute and adorable. In that case, I will accept this gift and continue to strive in my career. Someone finally appreciates me and my effort." Eun-Hee clenched her fists up.
The letter contained a few words of concern and kindness of Elysia. Eun-Hee couldn\'t help but smile and save the letter as she felt Elysia was like a little girl who was still so pure and innocent.
Meanwhile, Elysia and Sylvia had arrived in Tokyo. They ordered a taxi online to take them to their destination.
"Hm, doesn\'t that look like a military base? We\'ve come to the right place, right?" Elysia checked her smartphone once again.
"Ah, the taxi immediately rushed away." Sylvia snorted and peeked at the map from Elysia\'s shoulder. "Well, that red marker matches our marker. So this is the correct location."
"Mm, Erina-san\'s father said that someone was assigned to pick us up here, right? Or is it just us coming too early? But, it\'s already half-past six." Elysia looked left and right. She was confused because she remembered Erina\'s father explaining that their group was already at the location if it was today.
"Let\'s try going to the guard post and ask one of the armed soldiers there. If they don\'t know anything, we can contact Erina about our current position." Sylvia pointed towards the entrance of the military base.
*Bzzt*
Elysia\'s smartphone vibrated, an incoming message came.
"Ah, we just said that and a message from Erina-san came right away." Elysia immediately read the message.
Erina asked about her news and current location. She then sent her reply.
At that moment, a graceful and elegant girl enjoyed a cup of hot tea while gazing at the calm sea. A gentle breeze brushed her long brown hair under the warm morning sun.
Two burly men in military uniforms sat with her to enjoy their peaceful time together. However, a smartphone on the table vibrated, a message came in.
"Hm, Elysia-san and Sylvia-san have arrived at the military base. They are confused now. Has the person you ordered to pick them up hasn\'t arrived at the location yet, father?" Erina was pleasantly surprised.
"You look excited, Erina. Let\'s just wait, and they will arrive here. My people have been at the entrance since five o\'clock, and he must have noticed their presence by now." Kenji looked at his wristwatch and busied himself again to check some data on his tablet screen.
"Hehe, that\'s of course. This is my first experience to go on a family trip to the vast ocean. I\'m also going with my new friends. Hm, this will be a great trip." Erina put her hands together with an excited smile. She couldn\'t wait to enjoy the trip.
"But, please remember, you and your grandfather should absolutely not be known by the troops of other countries. This may be cooperation between armies, but things are not that simple in the rough seas." Kenji put his tablet down and looked his daughter straight in the eye.
"I understand." Erina put her hand on her upper chest and bowed slightly.
"Hm, they shouldn\'t know that a General is also involved in this operation? Very well, you are in charge of this operation, my son. No, you are Commander Kenji now." Mitsuzuka smirked and shook his head.
"Hm..." Kenji heaved a subtle sigh as he recalled his current rank in the navy. It was not his actual rank, but something terrible happened and resulted in his demotion.
A few moments later, two girls came closer. Hearing the noise, Erina immediately got up from her seat and greeted her friends. "Hi, welcome. You came sooner than I thought, Elysia-san, Sylvia-san."
"Mm, we\'re trying to arrive earlier than the estimated time. It\'s still a few minutes before seven o\'clock." Elysia looked at the clock on her smartphone.
"Would you like some tea first? Ah, since you\'re here, how about we have breakfast in the sky?" Erina made a proposal.
"Hm, since everyone\'s here, we\'d better go now. Our main force is already in the middle of the Pacific Ocean." Kenji got up from his seat.
"If you want breakfast or tea, you can do that in the helicopter. Let\'s go now." Mitsuzuka expressed his approval.
With that being said, they left the headquarter and headed towards the Helipad. A helicopter with two large propellers on the right and left was waiting for them there.
"We\'re leaving now." Kenji gave his orders.
"Yes, sir!" Two soldiers saluted and climbed into the pilot\'s room.
After a while, the helicopter took off and flew towards the Pacific Ocean.
"Here\'s your breakfast." Mio put some serving hoods for the three girls.
"Thank you, Mio." Erina expressed her gratitude.
"Just for the three of us? What about the other?" Elysia asked in confusion.
"Haha, don\'t mind us. We\'ve all had breakfast." Mitsuzuka waved her hand with a laugh.
"Hehe, did you know, Elysia-san? This is the fastest helicopter in the world. We are now probably traveling at around five hundred kmh! We\'re having breakfast in a fighter machine that goes at high speed." Erina shared the information with enthusiasm.
"Ooh~" Elysia nodded in understanding.. She then told a few things to Sylvia and Vanessa via telepathy before they enjoyed their breakfast in the sky.
