After taking a quick shower in his newly allotted quarter, Xin woke up the other two and asked them to freshen themselves in his bathroom. Aisen and Hiroshi took on the offer and took showers in his quarter. While they were busy in the bathroom, Xin was taking his time and was cleaning the bedroom. The night before he had a blast with the other two, and as a result beer cans were spread all over his room. Xin picked up all the cans, cleaned his room, and put all the trash in the gigantic dustbin outside of his quarter.
Morning time~~
10:30 Am~
After having his breakfast at the cafeteria, Xin bid farewell to his two comrades and headed directly towards Yamamoto's cabin. The cabin was located at a faraway distance from the main building and was as big as a mansion.
Xin was amazed by the design of the exterior and went inside the building to have a talk with him. Yamamoto was talking about something with Nen and Ryuu, at the same time having a watch on all the CCTV cameras. When he observed Xin was marching towards his cabin inside of the building, he stopped his talk with the Nen and Ryuu and pointed his finger towards the monitor.
Nen knitted his eyebrows as he was confused about what he wanted to convey. But Ryuu understood his gesture within a second and turned around in a hurry to have a look at the monitors behind him.
"Speak of the devil," Ryuu commented.
Yamamoto, "And the devil is here!!"
Nen understood what they were talking about and waited for their devil to enter the cabin.
Some minutes ago Yamamoto was welcoming Ryuu to the JSDF HQ and was telling them about Xin's contract clauses. While they were signing the contract, Nen was taking a seminar on the surface. So he was pretty much clueless about Xin's additional conditions.
For Ryuu, he was invited to JSDF HQ on Xin's request the day before. They didn't know his intention of calling him there, but since it was a request from the vice head of the research department, they did it without asking any questions.
Sir, can I come in?" Xin asked politely.
"Yes Mr.Xin, please come in."
"Thanks, sir."
With that, he entered the cabin and had a meeting with Yamamoto and the others. After greeting the three of them, he sat on the sofa near the mahogany table and asked the other three to come there.
"So, Mr. Xin, can you tell us the reason why you called me here?" Ryuu raised his voice of concern. As much as he knew, Xin was way much knowledgeable and talented than him and Nen. He couldn't think of any reason for why he was summoned there.
"Mhm…. I am coming to that point, but before that, I have a little talk with Mr. Yamamoto."
"Cough, cough. Yes, please tell, I am all ears." Replied the JSDF head Yamamoto Satoru, who was busy fiddling with his smartphone sometimes ago.
Xin nodded and told him the reason for his visit. He wanted to mobilize a small part of the JSDF troupe for doing some chores for him.
Hearing Xin's statement, Yamamoto choked on his coffee and stared at Xin in disbelief. When he heard the word 'chores' he was thinking of works like cleaning his quarter or doing some grocery shopping for him. Not only him, the other two also had funny ideas about his statement.
Seeing the dumbfounded faces of the three Xin thought his statement was not clear enough and made them understand what he meant by some chores.
"So you just want to mobilize a small group and want them to collect some of those weird fruits for you?" Yamamoto asked in a puzzled voice. He had no idea what would Xin do with those wild fruits that started to grow after the first magical wave hit the earth.
Not even the international scientists were sure about those fruits. They only knew that those fruits were not poisonous, excluding that they had no information about those fruits and their uses.
"Yes," Xin replied in a serious tone and added that he wanted at least ten thousand of those fruits.
Once again, the three of them were dumbfounded when they heard the number of fruits. For Yamamoto, he was pretty curious about their uses and what Xin would do with them.
He was about to fire out his question when Xin asked them not to ask him any further questions about it.
"You will know about it when the time comes." He made them shut with a single line.
The three of them became disappointed and stared at the Red Pine fruit that Xin had kept on the table as a reference. From the outside, it looked reddish-brown in color and was covered in a hard shell.
The inside of the fruit was white and had a strange odor around it. No one was brave enough to taste the fruit and tell the others about its benefits. All they were capable of was doing research upon research on it.
"Okay, you can mobilize the JSDF for your chores. But this time let me do this."
Xin nodded and let him do as he wished. He wasn't sure what Yamamoto meant by that, but he was sure of one thing that with the interference of JSDF Head Yamamoto his work would be completed before time and that too in a highly efficient way.
After discussing some other matters, YamamotAo finally stood up and went near his table to do a small broadcast. The entire JSDF HQ was under the surveillance of CCTV cameras, and near each CCTV camera, a small speaker was fitted to facilitate a smooth audio broadcast.
"Ahem, Hello 1, 2, 3…. Mic testing."
Hearing the sound coming from the speakers, the entire JSDF HQ stopped working. All of them were paying attention to the broadcast now.
