Takeshi Kitano was sitting on the sofa, with a wooden drawing board in front of him. He was coloring the painting on it with crayons. This was originally an empty conference room, but now it has been transformed into a temporary headquarters.
There are holes in the iron plates installed on the windows of the conference room. There are two defensive Army soldiers on each side of the windows facing north and south with guns on guard. There is almost no external light source coming in, so the lighting equipment continues during the day.
Operating.
There are five or six soldiers sitting at the long table opposite Takeshi Kitano. There is a row of desktop computers in front of them. Everyone is staring at their own screens. In front of them is a huge screen that takes up the entire office wall.
Electronic screens, three other people wearing headsets, connected to another set of machines not related to computers.
A large generator that supplies lighting equipment, computers, and other equipment is installed against the wall on the west side. The low operating sound that cannot be completely absorbed by the sound insulation facilities fills the entire space.
The old black phone on the table rang. Kitano Takeshi, still holding a crayon in his hand, impatiently picked up the phone and responded in a rude tone: "Moses, Moses, this is Okijima Branch. Iwaki Middle School Three
Class B Project Implementation Headquarters." But in the next moment, his back straightened up and he hugged the microphone with both hands.
"Oh, it's the superintendent of education. Are you betting on Kawada Shogo? Well, I'm betting on Kiriyama Kazuo. I'm betting on him alone. No, yes, Kawada is too. We're evenly matched. In any case, he has something.
Someone with experience. It’s rare that someone with experience appears this time. Of course he is still alive. So, how much do you want to bet? That’s amazing. It’s very impressive.”
"Huh? The odds of Kazuha Sorayama have risen so fast! Can't you see it on the screen there? Well, do you want to listen to the eavesdropping records? It's convenient and convenient, and I will tell you quietly that you have been following Mitsuko Souma.
The record is very exciting and the sound is really beautiful! No, no, she is still alive. It is a scream in another sense..."
Kitano Takeshi said this with a smile on his stiff face. He didn't know what was said on the other end of the phone, which made him raise his eyebrows. "Understood, I will pay attention, but it is impossible for them to escape. Hmm, don't worry.
...Ah, you don’t have to be so polite...bye."
Kitano put down the phone and wondered what he was thinking. The officer wearing sunglasses next to him asked: "What? Has a crisis situation been reported to the cabinet?" Then he ordered: "Go and get those with a danger level of three or above."
Report out."
"Sir! This is the male number 5 [Kawada Shogo], the 15th [Nanahara Akiya], the 43rd [Sorayama Ichiha], and the female number 11 [Souma Mitsuko], the 15th [Nakagawa]
Electronic] anomaly report. They are plotting to overturn the br law, trying to crack the collar and attack the headquarters. The danger level is temporarily identified as level three. There are no reports of other danger levels of level three or above. The report is completed." A soldier behaved well.
He gave a military salute to Takeshi Kitano and the officer in sunglasses.
Immediately, on the large screen covering half of the wall, detailed information and character analysis of several people were listed, as well as predictions of the winning results. Kawada Shogo's winning rate was listed first, followed closely by another transfer student Kiriyama Kazuo, followed by
Nobuhi Mimura, Mitsuko Soma... Akiya Nanabahara and Noriko Nakagawa's winning rates are ranked at the bottom. Judging from the prediction results, the survival probability of these two people is less than 5%.
In fact, we can see the pattern from the length of their introduction materials. The longer the introduction, the higher the winning rate of students. Especially, Kawada Shogo and Soma Mitsuko have the most experience, and the pull-down length is more than 10 times that of other students!
In Kawada's introduction, he wrote: Kawada Shogo, male, 16 years old, 177cm tall, born in... His father was shot for anti-government remarks in his early years, and his uncle is a professional mercenary who has been active in Africa, Latin America and other regions for a long time.
Uncertain... The winner of the last game, in the last game, killed a total of 13 classmates, namely... Finally, he personally killed his girlfriend who had been in love with him for 4 years... He was ruthless, experienced and well-trained.
Private individuals enter the game with powerful firearms and ample ammunition...
Photon's introduction focused on predicting that she might become the dark horse winner. After all, in previous games, a girl like her who was unscrupulous and extremely beautiful had a very high winning rate!
Her introduction reads: Souma Mitsuko, female, 15 years old, 161cm tall, born in... She was sexually assaulted many times when she was a child... She was suspected to be directly related to the death of four people, including her biological mother... for a long time
In contact with violent social groups, he personally planned and created many violent incidents, such as... Very serious anti-social tendencies...
Completely contrary to this, Kazuyo Sorayama's introduction contained only a few sentences, and the red text "This person is not found in the country's resident database and is suspected of smuggling" was extremely conspicuous. Kitano Takeshi was looking at the information on the screen. In fact, he had already seen it.
After going through it countless times, I know each student’s background even better than they themselves.
"Kawada Shogo-kun, as the winner of the previous year, you did not join the government and work for the organization, but instead came to participate in the game again... Haha, although I don't know what your plan is, your little actions in the past year are still...
That’s a lot! I hope you can bring some challenges to the game that is becoming more and more mediocre every year.”
Kitano Takeshi's dull voice sounded, and he didn't know whether he was talking to himself or to the officer next to him.
"That fool's name is Sorayama Kazuha. It seems that he has been pretending to be stupid and he seems to be very skilled. Swordsman? Tokyo? Chiyoda? Has a family? Haha... It seems that men are the real masters of lies! I didn't expect it.
Being able to deceive such a shrewd little guy as Mitsuko... You killed so many cute classmates, which is good, and it speeds up the progress. I originally thought that you and the naughty Mitsuko classmates were killed first, which is interesting. Kawada Shogo,
Kazuo Kiriyama, plus Mimura who has an IQ of over 150...this year’s game is really full of surprises, and it’s much more interesting than in previous years!”
The officer wearing sunglasses nodded, and his original solemn expression relaxed a lot. He also felt that the intelligence gathering personnel were making too much fuss.
Speaking of which, dragnets are not enough to describe the rigor of previous games. Not to mention the collars around the students' necks, just a company of elite soldiers led by myself on the island can kill students hundreds of times! There are also military and military personnel in nearby counties.
The 2,000 soldiers mobilized in the name of the exercise, coupled with the ships on the sea and helicopters in the air, the firepower can easily sink this island!
Even if you are a participant in the game, it is impossible for you to select 42 of the most elite soldiers, bring all the weapons and equipment, and unite to rush out!
I'm tired of watching these students kill each other every year. I hope this game can end soon. Let's leave this boring island as soon as possible.
The officer in sunglasses relaxed completely, turned to Takeshi Kitano and said, "Teacher Kitano, do you have any other instructions?"
The muscles on Kitano's dull face twitched. He seemed to understand the officer's thoughts very well, and replied: "I really hope they break the collar and rush out as one. I can kill these lovely students with my own hands."
Can’t wait!”
"Don't worry, Mr. Kitano. If it comes to that, I will order them to leave a few students with mutilated limbs for you to deal with. After completing the task, we will withdraw from the island. How do you want to be treated by that time?
The students, the government and the military will not give you any trouble."
"Ha! I'm really grateful!" "Then again, Teacher Kitano, which girls do you hope to leave behind? I think there are still some very good students in this class."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I hear them screaming, I can't help but tremble all over!"
"Hahaha! Mr. Kitano is really my confidant. I must have a few drinks when I get back to the shore." "Definitely"...
Takeshi Kitano was sitting on the sofa, chewing his beloved bear biscuits. There was a painting in front of him, if it could be called a "painting".
This was drawn by him with crayon strokes by his own hands. It shows the various ways of death of the students on the island: Fumiyo Fujiyoshi with a throwing knife stuck in his forehead, his throat blown out during the National Day, and his neck shot by a crossbow arrow.
Tengen Mayumi, Akamatsu Yoshio who was shot through the chest, Ogi Tateichi with an ax on his head, Motobuchi Kyouichi with internal organs flowing out of his abdomen, Takiguchi Yuichiro and Hatakeyama Tadakatsu with bloody necks, Shimizu Hirono with a blossoming head
, the duo of Kuronagahiro and Yukiko Yumi who were shot and killed by Kiriyama, Eto Megumi whose body and head were separated, Kuramoto Yoji and Yahagi Komi who committed suicide by hanging, Yamamoto Kazuhiko and Ogawa Sakura who committed suicide by jumping off a cliff, all in order to save the lifebuoy.
Mizuho Inada and Oriichi Minami died together...
Various cruel ways of death, as well as the large blank space left in the picture, make this simple graffiti look indescribably bloody!
In the center of the picture, occupying almost one-fifth of the entire painting, the girl with short hair and radiating light is particularly eye-catching. Noriko Nakagawa! Kitano Takeshi is full of enthusiasm for this only girl who does not discriminate against him and takes the initiative to talk to him.
Good impression.
Kitano Takeshi's life was a failure and tragedy: his wife disliked him, his daughter despised him, and his students attacked him... He had a home that he couldn't return to, and a job that he couldn't go to. In the end, he could only give up his life to the government, and he was willing to come and preside over this.
A killing game, you know how difficult it is to find a teacher who understands the students and is willing to host the game!
Only Noriko Nakagawa showed goodwill to Kitano Taketo from beginning to end, even sharing ice cream with him outside school! This was the only trace of humanity left in Kitano Taketo's heart who was full of hatred and disappointment for the world.
"Noriko-kun, you must live to the end..." Takeshi Kitano looked at the painting in trance, seeming to be praying in his heart...
