Chapter 230: Awakening!

A half-hour break.

Ren Amamiya went to soak in a hot spring, relaxing his body and mind, washing away the dust of the world.

The girls also went to soak in a hot spring; clearly, they too needed to prepare themselves mentally for the story of the back mountain.

Once both sides were ready, they sat down in the living room again.

"Alright, then let's discuss the matter of the back mountain in detail."

As he spoke, Ren Amamiya took out his phone and handed it to Hayasaka Ai.

After receiving the phone, Hayasaka Ai quickly retrieved a projector, connected it to the phone, and began projecting the image onto a screen that had been prepared in the main hall.

The projection quickly displayed an image.

This was footage shot from a high vantage point, targeting the drug dealers' laboratory that the special forces had raided.

The scale was quite large; even a rough estimate put the area at a thousand square meters.

Yet it looked extremely rudimentary.

The outer shell was made of white plastic sheets, with only a layer of iron sheeting added to the roof on top.

However, considering this was a place for drug manufacturing and research, it became clear: this was inherently a temporary base. Once discovered, it needed to be abandoned quickly, so there was no need to make it luxurious.

Soon, a group of fully armed elite troops began to encircle and raid the drug dealers' base.

The footage was shot quite clearly.

Even the moment those drug dealers were killed was captured with great clarity.

It displayed the entire real-life scene of the anti-drug operation before their eyes.

"..."

At this moment, everyone watching could clearly feel life fading away right before their eyes.

People who had been moving just moments ago lost all vital signs after being hit by a few bullets.

Everything happened so quickly.

Everything happened so matter-of-factly.

They knew they should not sympathize with drug dealers.

Yet they had not yet prepared themselves to accept the fact of living people dying right before their eyes.

This time was an inevitability they had to experience.

Because they were beginning to venture into the Secret World, and the Secret World is far more cruel than the ordinary world.

The passing of life is a step they must accept.

Ren Amamiya did not disturb them, nor did he stand nearby saying not to worry about the fate of the drug addicts.

Some things are best accepted on one's own.

Since they decided to watch, they must show their resolve.

Soon, the special forces swept through the drug dealers' base, clearing out almost every living person.

The footage stopped here.

"This is the initial part."

"The quality of the Metropolitan Police Department's sweep team is quite high; they showed no mercy in dealing with the drug dealers."

"I imagine they must have been reminded by the bureau's upper leadership."

"Otherwise, at least one or two survivors would have been left behind to provide some explanation of the events."

"But judging by the situation of these troops, wiping out the drug dealers is their job."

Ren Amamiya took this opportunity to give everyone an introduction.
