Bang, bang, bang!
Without any pause, Ye Jian fired three bullets in a row.
Maki Fujino, who was holding onto the flagpole, first heard the instructor's shocked roar. Then, right on the heels of that, he heard gunshots. Before the other Japanese students could react, Maki Fujino heard a familiar sound above his head…
This sound…
He paused in his heart and looked up at the sky in horror. He saw the flag that represented Japan breaking along with the flagpole and crashing down.
"No!"
Seeing his flag lowered in such a way, Maki Fujino felt as if a huge piece of his heart had been dug out. It was so painful that his eyes were about to pop out. He opened his arms and tried to catch the falling flag…
Fukumoto Lina reacted a little slower. Before he could look up, the flag crashed into his feet along with the broken flagpole.
Dust rose into the air. When the snow-white light shone on the scene, it was as if everything was an illusion.
