Chapter 287 First to be eliminated, the mortar establishes its authority!
Currently available information indicates that Yukino's team has relatively advanced weaponry. Since children always like flashy water guns, they were given simple-looking but electric high-end water guns.
Don't blame the adults for cheating; this is all due to the power of economics and technology, which is beyond the reach of children!
Meanwhile, the American-trained team on the other side... although they only had ordinary, cheap water guns, their lightness and small size made them perfect for guerrilla warfare. Combined with the agility of the four children, their threat level was definitely not low.
As for Uchiha Ryo... ignore him for now, quietly replenish your ammo~ Water balloons +1 +1 +n....
Outside a relatively empty garden, Goto Ichiri stood alone, looking around. How terrifying... as bait... will Rumi and the others just gang up on me and take me away?
Even though he knew his three teammates were lying in ambush nearby, Xiao Gudu was still very nervous, even though his opponents were just four elementary school students.
If only gentle Nijika were here, she would definitely encourage me... and Kita-chan... and Ryo, who still owes me money.
Yamada Ryo, who was working at the Starlight Music Bar, sneezed.
"Are you sick? Do you want me to take your shift?" Ichiji Nijika asked with some concern.
"Nothing, but why isn't Little Lonely here today?"
Hongxia smiled. "We've been practicing for so long, it's time to let Xiao Gudu relax a bit. After all, she's the best among us. The only thing we need to focus on is her mindset."
Yamada Ryo nodded and said calmly, "Oh... but as for relaxing a little, I guess it'll just mean staying home and lazing around all day."
"Heh heh, Ryo, you guessed wrong. Little Lonely was invited to play in the water by Hayasaka-san from Shuchiin. She must be very happy now~"
......
I'm terrified, really! As bait, Little Lonely knows that her only goal is to expose the opponent's location as much as possible, so that it can help her side deal damage.
"Rumi-chan, target spotted!"
Behind the flower bushes, Himesaka Noa, acting as the observer, crouched down to show that she could see her little lonely sister all alone there.
Rumi Tsurumi frowned. "Only one person?"
Hinata Hoshino raised her water gun. "What's there to be afraid of? They've probably split up. Let's just eliminate her!"
"No, who knows if Sister Lonely will call the other friends? We can't all be exposed, Little Flower! It's up to you."
Shirasaki Hana nodded. "I'll give it a try."
As she spoke, Shirasaki Hana walked out of the flower bushes without any attempt to hide herself and approached Goto Ichiri head-on.
Goto Ichiri paused, quickly steadying her trembling arms as she raised the water gun. "Hana, don't... don't come any closer."
Even knowing she was an easy target, she was determined to complete her mission! So Little Lonely didn't back down; she simply stood there with her water gun, her eyes darting around, searching for anyone else.
"Little Lonely Sister, wait a minute, my water gun is broken, could you please take a look at it for me?"
The little flower struck an endearing pose, instantly dispelling the tension in Little Lonely's heart. He breathed a sigh of relief and put down the water gun.
Yeah, it's just a game, why am I so nervous?
"What's wrong with it? I'll go ask Chitanda to replace it for you."
Xiaohua nodded. "Thank you, sister. The water just won't come out; it seems to be blocked."
The two were less than a meter apart. Xiaohua raised her water gun, and Goto Ichiri also leaned over to look at the direction of the gun's muzzle.
"Is it blocked? There's no foreign object... Ahhh!!"
A face shot at extremely close range! Shirasaki Hana pulled the trigger of a perfectly functional water gun, and Kotori lost sight of her for a moment before feeling a stream of water running down her face.
The enemy team got one player with low health right at the start?!
Yukinoshita and the others, who were secretly observing, were extremely surprised that they had actually used their childhood to make Kotori so easily lose his judgment and become lost in "cuteness".
That's a terrifying tactic. Was it Tsurumi Rumi's command? ... It seems I can no longer judge you by the standards of a child.
"Retreat now!"
Rumi's voice rang out, and just as Shirasaki Hana turned her head, Chitanda Eru had already slipped out from behind a tree not far away.
Continuous long-range firing! It's an electric, large-scale water gun!
Shirasaki Hana's back was completely soaked, and her health had also been reduced to half.
"Hmph, Rumi's voice just now came from this side, didn't it~" Chitanda had no intention of chasing after Hana, but instead rushed towards the garden.
To catch the thief, first catch the king! Once the elementary school students are eliminated, those who have studied in the US will pose no threat!
"Eru, wait!" Yukinoshita stood up, but Chitanda Eru had already rushed into the flower bushes.
Hayasaka Ai appeared from her side. "Shall we go to their rescue?"
Yukino nodded. "I'll stay here to protect Goto. Hayasaka, you go with Eru. Don't worry about killing any enemies!"
It's good to press your advantage on the battlefield, but blindly charging forward will only lead you into someone else's trap.
Hana's deceptive attack was merely a facade; wasn't she also bait laid out by Tsurumi Rumi? But this bait... wasn't meant to lure anyone in!
If Chitanda had chosen to chase after Hana, Rumi and the others would probably have been in a very difficult situation, because she hadn't made any preparations for the direction Hana was running in, which meant she had essentially let Shirasaki Hana go.
However, the overconfident Chitanda believed that Hyuga and Noa must be hiding in the direction Hana escaped, so he rushed directly towards Tsurumi Rumi's hiding place.
But they... were waiting for Chitanda Eru's sudden attack!
"Now! Splash!"
Water guns are just containers for water fights! At close range, water bottles are the most lethal! The moment Chitanda appeared, Hoshino Hinata and Himesaka Noa flung their water bottles away.
"Oh no..." Chitanda's front was instantly soaked. At the same time, Tsurumi Rumi, who was standing in the middle, pulled up the picnic blanket on the ground and blocked all of Chitanda's counterattack.
"Let's go find Xiaohua."
There was no way they could linger in the fight. Hinata and Noa helped drag the carpet along, running away as if they were wearing huge cloaks.
Hayasaka Ai, who had just arrived, sighed helplessly. All three people opposite were covered by blankets; the water gun couldn't get through at all...
"Are you alright?"
"Phew, that was close! I'm soaked everywhere except my back."
In the first clash between the two teams, Little Lonely's health was halved, Chitanda's health was low, and Shirasaki Hana's health was halved.
Just then, a water balloon landed precisely behind Chitanda. As the water balloon exploded, Hayasaka Ai raised her arm to block some of the damage, but Eru, who was already low on health... could not escape unscathed.
"There?!"
Hayasaka Ai looked in the direction from which the water balloons were coming, but saw no one.
The first contact between the three parties! Chitanda Eru of Yukino's squad is the first to be eliminated! The killer—Uchiha Ryo, the "Mortar" who quietly climbed onto the second-floor roof!
