126 . Enemy Site Inspection 1
My mother told that I shouldnt talk to strangers (Mitsuha)
Ultimate skill [Act like a child]!!
Its been a long ti, since I used this
Eh(Soldier)
Un, hes troubled! From his point of view, he can only see as a 12 to 13 years old girl! No, Im not happy at all!
The young soldier who called to was around 20 years old . Looking at the rank badge, it is a rank equivalent to a senior soldier by earths standard . I rembered the ranks of the captured battleship crews .
Wait, No, Im not suspicious! (Soldier)
My mother told that every suspicious person says that (Mitsuha)
Ugh (Soldier)
Alright, hes troubled!
tte, I bullied him too much huh, I feel bad for him . He just doing his job after all, he doesnt have bad intentions .
Im waiting because my father isnt coming back . Its been quite a while since the Cariard left the port (Mitsuha)
The Cariard is one of the three captured battleships .
Uh . (Soldier)
The soldier is unable to think of anything to say .
Well thats because sothing like expeditionary fleet is the sa as gambling . Aside from getting any result, it wasnt guaranteed for it to return safely . No, the chances of returning arent that high In fact, it will not return .
Moreover, He cant possibly tell a little girl that [They are unlikely to return safely] .
Do you know sothing about it? (Mitsuha)
Ah, no, umm, I-Im not sure because Im in a different departnt . Well then, excuse (Soldier)
After saying that, the soldier walks away .
Alright, I won!
Maybe the soldier from earlier was a security guard .
Particularly, this is not on the premises of the military, and the appearance of the military ship is not classified either, so there is no problem viewing the ships from here . The others also sightseeing here . The only reason he approached was that he just worried because a little girl was sitting alone in such a place .
dont tell , hes picking up?
Nonono, its bad Here, I should look like 12 13 years old girl . its not so bad if its a 14 15 years old boy, but
You alone? Do you want to drink tea at the caf? (Boy)
Gyaaaaa!!!
A 14 15 years old boy called out to !!
U~n, Power of Words, what fearful thing!!
The boy dressed like a newbie sailor .
Thats right, the adult age here is fifteen, so if the army recruits many young people, of course, those of that age will also be recruited Or worse, even younger people may be recruited as a child soldier or an elentary military student .
There are many tasks that even children can do, such as chores, ssenger on board, lookouts, and taking care of officers .
And the rest of the soldiers will take turns . Because not everyone at the base will rest at the sa ti . Also, there may be various things like night shift . So, its no wonder if young people are off on weekdays . And in this era, the only won in the army would be just the clerks at ground facilities or aunts at ss hall, there would be no other won . Especially when it cos to teenage girls
Thats a sweet bait! If a girl who might be interested in warships was sitting alone in such a place, then
Normally, of course, I will promptly refuse .
But my mission this ti is [to collect information]! Yeah, information sources that seem to be useful are valuable .
Ive heard from all of the captured crews what recruits know, but its been a while since they left .
The difference in the freshness of information is as large as the difference in the amount of known information between lower-ranking officers and senior officers . The rudintary thing is to hear from the bottom officer before getting any important information from the senior officer . It is more efficient and reduces the probability of suspicion .
With that in mind, I slightly casted my eyes down, and shyly replied .
y-yes (Mitsuha)
I have experienced sothing like called by a boy!! And I also can act like what a boy would like!!
I was called when I was in 2nd year in high school, and the other day when I was in junior high school!
I refused on the spot though, damn it!
Also, there was a senior that asked out!
It was a female senior though!! What do you an by [I want you to be my petite soeur]!!

(Note: Lmao . For anyone who doesnt know French, petite soeur = little sister)
Damn it!!
Hah hah (Gasping SFX)
No, leaving that aside!
So shops are already open this ti . Lets go there! (The Boi)
The boy who called out to couldnt believe that he had succeeded . With a flustered face, he hastily turned back . Umu, here is for once, the elder sister turns to be the lead
Yes, I got it! (Mitsuha)
And we arrived at a cafe just a short walk from the place we were just at .
The seats are not terrace seats, but table seats inside the store .
In this area, the price seems to be different depending on the seat, even if it is the sa nu at the sa store .
The highest is the terrace seats, and the cheapest are the counter seats . The table seats in the store are in the mid-range . The price between the terrace seats and counter seats seems to be about 2-3 tis different .
I didnt want to spend too much money on a boy who was just a child from my point of view, so I said that I could use a counter seat, but as a boy, it seed unacceptable .
Actually, he wanted to use terrace seat, but apparently there was a problem other than the money . Yeah, because [this place is right next to the naval base], he said .
Because it is a large base, the number of soldiers who are off today is a lot . And, of course, among them, there are colleagues, seniors, and superiors, which many of them have neither wives nor girlfriends .
And the terrace seats stand out .
Yeah, well, thats that
a Caf (Boy)
Id like a Caf Allong please (Mitsuha)

We ordered a drink from the waiter and chatted for a while .
Ah, he doesnt seem hungry because he goes out after eating a free breakfast at the ss hall . I also had breakfast at the inn, so only drinks .
Soldier Its a bit uncomfortable to say that a 15-year-old boy is a [Soldier], but here he is a respectable adult and a full-fledged mber of society . Its bad to call him [boy], and to he looks like 18 19 years old .
The [Marine] seems to give an image of the army, and the [Sailor] is also referred as [Junior Officer] who is non-commissioned officer . So, to avoid being rude then, isnt [Militant] safe?
Well, at any rate, its a conversation!
No, I too, can manage if its just to talk with boys .
Thank you for the invitation! Are you a sailor? Or, ground duty? (Mitsuha)
First, lets hear the affiliation of the other party . This changes the direction of the information and the reliability . Its hard to say sothing like [I dont know] when asked by a girl, a boy of this age is absolutely determined to say sothing appropriate . So, I have to judge the credibility here .
Sa-sailor! Im on the new 64-gates ship, Leviathan, amazing right! (Boy)

(Note: 64-gates where gates here is linked to the number of guns on board)
Alright, its a hit!
Even ground duty staff could have good information . But it must be a certain class or higher and a person who is assigned to the above information . However, if you are a sailor, even the lower one has so good information in general . Like the performance of the ship, the weapons on board, the planned action
And young sailors usually have high self-esteem .
The Navy isnt just composed of sailors . The ships operation is supported by people working on ground . So, not all departnt working on board . However, young sailor tends to think that they are going to the battlefield by the ship and that they are great . Moreover, from the story of the captured crews and the state of the seized ship, the 64 gates seem to be state-of-the-art ships . The seized ship has 40-gates .
Militant No, hes clearly younger than , and its awkward addressing him this way . Well, lets settle by [Militant-kun]!
So, this militant-kun probably thinks of as [a little daughter of a wealthy immigrant house] . I dont think if its ever crossed his mind that I, who appeared to be a 12 13 years old girl, was a spy . And a spy wouldnt bother using exotic features that stands out . Also, theres no way for a spy to deal with lower ranks .
No, he wont even think that far . Hes still around 15 years old boy after all
Even though my clothes are expensive from public point of view, from a normal boys point of view the will only look like [the clothes of a common girl who worked hard to dressed up] .
Boys are completely clueless at how much money it costs to dress a girl, or the hassle and money involved in beauty and makeup! No, I didnt spend that much ti and money though . Its just, Mitchan of the liquor store always complained about that .
(Note: Mitchan is her friend on Earth . And is a daughter of Liquor store owner . Just a reminder)
Anyway, the information war has started .
Ready Fight!!
