Chongzong is not surprised by this.

Since coming to Kyoto, Chongzong has had numerous encounters with the Atlas Bear.

He is a formidable opponent and extremely loyal to the Manranyama Corporation.

Chongzong, who has lost and escaped from the Atlas Bear multiple times, knows his strength well. He also knows that once caught in such a narrow place, it is impossible to escape.

The power gap is too great.

- What a pity.

- If only he could be used by Manranyama Souren.

Although he is an enemy, Chongzong does not dislike the Atlas Bear. On the contrary, he thinks the Atlas Bear is a worthy opponent.

It's just a pity that he chose the wrong person and was used by Bai Yaxin.

If they had met in a different way, they might have become friends.

Like... Watanabe Gengo, who has already passed away.

Chongzong is surprised that he is reminded of this name at this moment.

A person who could be both an enemy and a friend, who ultimately defended his beliefs with his life.

Chongzong even thinks that if the person present at that time was the Atlas Bear, he would have turned against his employer to protect women and children.

The Atlas Bear and Watanabe Gengo are both principled but helpless individuals.

However, imagine what you may, reminisce what you may, the Atlas Bear would never betray his employer in this situation no matter how emotionally or logically persuaded.

Furthermore, Chongzong does not have concrete evidence at hand.

The current problem will continue to exist if it is not resolved.

The Atlas Bear does not seem to be merely standing here, but rather guarding this place.

According to the information provided by Manranyama Souren, the archives should be unguarded at this time.

So, should Chongzong wait for the Atlas Bear to leave or forcibly break through?

Chongzong looks at Van, seeking her opinion.

Van raises the stun gun in her hand, her eyes filled with determination.

It seems she wants to face it head-on.

With the help of the stun gun and the two of them working together, do they stand a chance of winning?

Chongzong has not witnessed Van's skills, but no matter how impressive her technique may be, it is meaningless in the face of the Atlas Bear's absolute size and strength.

The weight difference is too great, and skill alone cannot inflict enough damage on him.

Yuiichi's trump card is the stun gun, but if she fails the first time, it would be difficult to quickly end the fight.

Once it causes a commotion and attracts other security personnel, it won't be an easy problem to solve.

Without obtaining evidence of the crime, whether they can successfully escape is still unknown.

-No, the risk is simply too great.

Chongzong shakes his head.

He cannot forcibly proceed here.

The likelihood of being able to quickly take down the Atlas Bear in a short period of time is extremely small.

Here, it is only possible to lead him away and quickly find evidence of the crime, and then leave.

In this case, there is no need to consider other candidates, there is no other choice.

Only Van knows the evidence of the crime, so she must be sent.

Then Chongzong himself will lead the Atlas brown bear away, and afterwards, each of them will find a way to retreat.

Time is running out, Chongzong lowered his voice and briefly explained the operational plan in a volume only audible to the two of them.

After a slight hesitation, Van nodded and then retreated to another corner to temporarily hide.

Immediately, Chongzong deliberately dropped the taser gun on the ground and then picked it up, making a sound, and quickly retreated in the opposite direction from where Van was.

Hearing the sound, the Atlas brown bear, as Chongzong had anticipated, followed the footsteps of him leaving and quickly approached.

- He must be led far enough away, and then lose him, buying time for Van.

- The success or failure of the mission depends entirely on you, Van!
