Ken finally met his boss. "... I see, Captain."
"Mmh, weird too. Maybe because the victim was dead, that's why the octopus left the place. Honey, it's a little far away so you're late."
"Sorry, sir." Ken lowered.
"Yes, there is nothing you can report because you are not there and lost track of the octopus. Whether you're lucky or you're losing, actually."
Lieutenant Ken is still down, silent.
"Then you can go back to your place. This ship did have a little damage on the outside so it was forced to wait to be repaired.
Now the officer who fixed the machine I put it down with an iron cage to keep him safe to work. The monitoring officer is also looking into our whereabouts right now, because since the storm, we don't know any more about our new coordinate points. Our monitor also has a disruption but hopefully it can be finished quickly so we can go back to Japan."
Ken then pampered. In the Corridor, he moved quickly in order to meet with Mira. He opened the door of his room. "Mira ...."
Blank.
"Mira!" no voices to speak. The man went back and forth to check the room but the girl remained non-existent. It should not be difficult to find the girl in the restroom and if she does not meet, she is gone.
Ken opened the wardrobe and found the clothes he had given the girl were there. How disappointed. The man slammed himself into the bed.
He understood the girl was at work but right now, only the girl was his friend talking. Reminiscent of how sweet it is when the girl smiles or when happy, or when walking half-jumping.
Ken smiled very much considering the girl's behavior when with him, but he had to give up because Mira did not have a choice but to work.

The next day the ship sailed back despite faltering because it turned out there were engine components that were badly damaged and had to be replaced. At that time they traveled with a fairly dangerous alternative to the engine because of that, the ship drove slowly.
The captain deeply regretted the absence of replacement parts that should be owned by a large ship such as a naval vessel, but this was a correction so that in the future the goods were available on board. This is especially dangerous for ships that are sailing because often they are at sea rather than on land.
"Sir, we found the island" said an officer guarding the monitor. At that time the monitor was still in disturbance, it could not detect being in the sea where. Especially when it gets dark, starting at night. "Do we need to dock, sir?"
"Maybe it's best. The groceries are still there for the next month but maybe we can get help from the surrounding population."
"Good, Captain."
The ship was ready to dock but then, the island that has mountains and high ground was able to hide something. A pirate ship. The ship moved outside from its hiding place to the Japanese naval vessel.
The people inside the Japanese ship's bridge were of course shocked, as they could easily recognize the pirate ship from its flag, which was black and had a skull.
"How is this, Captain?" ask the officer in control.
"Try the loudspeaker" the man asked his men. He approached mike near the monitor, and the clerk turned it on.
Ken who was behind them was also quite tense hearing the word 'pirator', reminding him of the pirates inside the children's storybook. But no matter what they are, he doesn't know.
But the pirate ship was still moving closer. There were even people who came out of the ship in strange clothes. It seems like they are not from Asia but from Europe because their faces are Caucasian with a large high posture.
Strangely, they are not from today but from a few hundred years ago. Evidently from their clothes are exactly the same as those in the children's story books that Ken had read, when he was a child and this is very surprising. Are they really from that era, or is there some other explanation for this?
"Are they in Halloween costumes?" asked the captain of the ship almost in disbelief.
"Is this a boat for a Halloween party? If it's true, it's amazing, but why are they holding it in such a remote place?" the monitor officer asked because he saw the island as uninhabited because by this time of night, there was no lighting on the island. The island is dark.
The monitor officer was suspicious and looked at the ship's captain.
Captain Higarashi cleared his throat for a moment. "Because we've had a previous accident that resulted in the crew dying, we should be vigilant. Prepare weapons on our ships and prepare for firing at any time."
"Ready, Captain." The officer immediately announced to the entire crew to prepare weapons leading to the pirate ship.
The captain also used binoculars looking towards the ship. In the deck area, there were some people pacing around there. A ship captain standing in the middle of them was directing his men. Uniquely the captain of the ship with his wide hat ....
"Wait a minute!" shouted captain Higarashi making contact with those who were focusing on preparing weapons because in an emergency, turned to him. "I didn't see it wrong, did I? The captain of the ship is a woman!"
"What?" Ken is moving forward.
"I have to what, say! It's a trap or I'm overreacting" the man looked panicked.
Ken, who had a bad feeling, asked for the binoculars from Captain Higarashi. "Can I borrow the binoculars for a while?" He looked up at the deck of the ship and was shocked. Lucille ... It turned out that she was chasing me. Goddamnit! I should how? To be sure, the crystal ball was on him, but there was no way I could have asked for it. He's definitely not gonna give it.
So he was going to attack this ship with the intent of targeting me. Mmh, if I turn myself in, will the problem be solved?
No, why did I turn myself in because I wasn't wrong. Love cannot be forced at any time. The truth is, he was the one who had to be aware of this futile effort but what should I do?
Ken dropped his binoculars. "It looks like a trap. Everywhere, that beautiful woman is always a trap."
"Right, but ..really?" Captain Higarashi hesitated.
"Be careful, it's possible that the sweet mouth is venomous."
Higarashi turned to Ken. "You seem to know him?"
"Eh, no. I've had acquaintances like him."
"But this isn't him. How do you know this woman has the same traits as her?" But before the Lieutenant answered, Higarashi answered himself. "Eh, it's not important now, but yes .. must be careful," he said asserting Ken's words.
