Chapter 63 - Recruiting Allies & Lighting a flame

As the sun set and the night crept in, Hino and Shizuru were still brainstorming methods to uncover the organization, all the while making sure to prepare for dinner so they could stick to their daily routines.

The couple was determined to find a way to uncover the organization's whereabouts without having to surrender the ring, and they knew that it would take patience, dedication, and time. But ultimately they were not going to give up and they were ready to do whatever it took to achieve their goals.

"We need to be extra cautious when planning our next steps, Shizuru. If we make any mistakes the consequences could be disastrous, we can't risk anything." Hino was feeling overwhelmed by the fear of making the wrong decision.

The couple had put so much effort into their research and they were determined to find a way to find the organizations, but the risks were too high.

They didn't want to make any rash moves that could compromise their safety.

The two of them were tired and frustrated but they knew that they had to stay strong and focused.

Hino and Shizuru were still trying to make sense of the clues they had gathered thus far. However, the more they thought about the situation, the more confused they became.

Their goal was to uncover the organization and bring them to justice, but they didn't know who was the real culprit.

The couple realized that they could not focus only on the Japanese organization, as it would only be the tip of the iceberg. They realized that the global organization was the real problem and they had to act accordingly.

Shizuru was skeptical of Hino's plan, thinking that it was too far-fetched and unlikely to work. She thought that Hino was living in his fantasies and using his imagination too much.

She was reluctant to believe in his plan because she didn't think that it was possible.

Hino, on the other hand, believed that he could do it. He had to find a way to break into the organization's headquarters and this was the only solution he had. He was determined to make it work, despite the odds being against him.

As Shizuru and Hino continued to discuss their plans, they realized that they were out of options and needed to come up with a solution. Hino had been practicing his telekinetic and astral divination skills for the past 12 years and now he was ready to take on the organization's headquarters. Shizuru was skeptical at first but as they discussed their strategy, she slowly began to believe that it could actually work.

They knew that this was their only chance to solve the mystery and bring the organization to justice, and Hino was determined to not let this opportunity slip by.

Hino had been considering other possibilities for who could be behind the organization. He knew that the C.I.A. was involved, but he also believed that there could be someone else pulling the strings as well.

As he considered his theories, he realized that the organization could have connections within the political system. He believed that it could be someone with enough power and influence to secretly fund and operate the organization.

The idea that a political leader could be involved in the organization's operations had not crossed his mind before, but it was a plausible explanation for the organization's secretive nature and vast resources.

Hino and Shizuru sat in silence, both deep in thought as they considered the implications of Hino's theory. As they pondered the possibilities, they realized that there were many unknowns and variables in their investigation.

The scope of the organization was still unclear, and it was unknown how far up the hierarchy the corruption went. Hino knew that he had to continue his research and look into the possibility of political leaders being involved in the organization's activities.

Shizuru was startled and concerned by Hino's theory. She hadn't considered that the organization could have ties to the political system and it was a new possibility that she had to take into account.

The thought that a political figure might be involved was unsettling, but it also made sense. It would explain why the organization had so much power and influence and how they were able to operate so covertly.

Hino looked at Shizuru, who was now deep in thought, thinking over his theory. He knew that they could not afford to ignore this possibility and he felt the urgency of their situation. They needed to find the organization's location and they were running out of time. Hino and Shizuru both realized that they needed to act now before it was too late.

Hino took a step away from Shizuru and looked at her directly. "Shogi..." He spoke in a calm, deep voice, as if trying to think of the right words to say.

Shizuru thought that this may be a clue of some sort, and she waited eagerly to see what Hino would say next. She knew that she couldn't miss any important information that he would have discovered.

Hino turned to Shizuru and calmly said, "You have played Shogi, haven't you?"

Shizuru nodded in response, "Yes, Hino. I have played Shogi before."

Hino smiled and said, "Good, then you will understand what I am talking about. In Shogi, there is a piece called the 'Dragon King.' This piece can only be used once per game and it can go almost anywhere on the board. You see, the Dragon King is a very powerful piece, but it is also a weak piece because it only has one move."

Shizuru looked at Hino with excitement and asked, "So we need to make a team of how many people and then we could now start the revolution?"

Hino smiled at her question and said, "Yes, Shizuru. A revolution cannot be made by just one or two people. We need a team of dedicated, determined, and driven people who want to make the change."

Shizuru nodded in agreement and said, "Yes Hino, you are right." She was excited at the thought of bringing about the revolution. The two of them knew that the time for change had come and it would take many people

Shizuru was understandably confused as to how they were going to gather so many people. The task seemed insurmountable, but Hino was determined to find a way.

Hino saw her confusion and said, "We can't know who else is also seeking a change. We can start by finding individuals that are like-minded and dedicated to our cause. Once we have gathered a few people, we can start to spread the word and recruit more people to our team."

Shizuru considered Hino's words and nodded in agreement. The task seemed impossible, but she was willing to try.
