"S-Shit…!"
"Ahh… W-We weren't doing anything, dude!"
"Yeah!"
The pilots hid their tools behind their backs. I considered the option of letting them go. But that would only make them try it another day.
I can't just deal with the same thing every day. Even in this highly technological society, maybe "that" is still the answer.
"Is that right… Well, I saw you were holding tools, and I also overheard what you said," I said. "If you confess what you were doing to Henriette and authorities, I'll try to appeal to them, so they lower your sentences and punishments."
I was straightforward, I gave them one and only one chance.
If they don't take it, they're fools.
"What?!"
"What bullshit are you talking about?"
"You bastard… You're really full of shit!"
"Since when did you become so confident, huh?!"
"Right! A few days ago you were always crying and running away from battles!"
