The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly turned heated. No one had expected that the Land Guard, after years of hardship, would finally get a turn for such good fortune. Everyone was excited.
"Since Police Chief Aoyama is so willing, I have no objections. I fully support Mr. Ito's intentions."
"I feel the same. With the economy in a downturn and the government unable to provide funds, we, as soldiers, should take the initiative to raise funds and relieve the country's worries."
"Agree, we must agree. We cannot let down the kindness of Police Chief Aoyama and General Ito!"
The case of the Maritime Security Bureau was there for all to see; when money was offered up so readily, why push it away?
"Great! Since everyone agrees, I'll arrange another meeting with Police Chief Aoyama to discuss this further," said Ito Sei, nodding, his expression gradually becoming stern.
