Project Relife: 2x Isekai System

Say something when Hiroshi intervened and said, "We know where you could find the chief."

"Chief?!"

"Yes, chief. I work under her, in the technical department. And we call her chief."

"I see!!" Xin exclaimed and asked Hiroshi what kind of person was the Chief? Angry, moody, arrogant type or gentle, lovely, nice type.

Hearing Xin asking about what kind of person she was and guessing about her personality, their eyes widened. They were shocked by the facts that Xin predicting before them.

Hiroshi swallowed hard and said, "You will find out soon, what type of person she is."

Xin felt somewhat weird as that type of answer was keeping him in suspense, but he didn't investigate it any further as he wanted the suspense to keep ongoing.

After talking about some other trivial matters, Aisen and Hiroshi returned him his hoodie and the ID card that he had forgotten on the bench of the training hall and asked him to put on his ID card. The underground facility was built thousands of meters below the ground level and needs special permission and security checks before using the elevator to go there.

The guards on duty did a thorough checkup on Xin and gave him a green signal for using the elevator after that. Aisen and Hiroshi were the regulars of the underground facility, so they just had to show their ID cards for using the elevator.

After hopping on to the elevator, Aisen configured it and made its descending speed slow. It was the first time for Xin, and he didn't want their MVIP guest to puke all over them.

Slowly, the elevator started moving and their most awaited descent began. Xin was filled with excitement to see the underground facility and to check out the new things that have been added there due to the merging of the two worlds.

The descent was very slow, and the atmosphere was very quiet, Hiroshi couldn't endure it more and broke the ice by starting a topic.

"Mr. Xin, you don't look that old. If you don't mind, can you tell us your age?" Hiroshi asked politely. He didn't want to offend the MVIP guests, so he was asking it with a mix of casual and polite. Such that if Xin got offended, or he gets angry, he could apologize to him for his mistake and ward it off by starting some other topic.

Xin didn't reply to his question instantly.

Observing he was keeping his mouth shut, both of them thought they did it. They successfully offended an MVIP level guest of the JSDF HQ.

Aisen was getting ready to apologize on behalf of Hiroshi and Hiroshi was getting ready to apologize and start a new topic, when Xin looked towards them and asked, "Sorry, did you ask something?"

Aisen "…"

Hiroshi "…"

Both of them were thinking 'Is this guy deaf, or he was just indulged with his mobile.'

Xin took out the small ear pods that he had been wearing for a while and asked them again, "Sorry, did you say something to me. I was wearing earpods so…"

"Hahaha," Aisen burst out in laughter and repeated the question that Hiroshi asked earlier.

"Indeed, I am younger than you two."

"Younger, by how much?" Hiroshi asked while smiling.

"I am just 18. Last year high school student."

Xin "…"

Hiroshi "…"

Both of them were dumbfounded when they found out their MVIP guest was just a high school kiddo, and not any big corporations or companies head.

Xin was observing the shocked faces of the two cadets and was laughing like crazy deep inside his heart. He knew that once he revealed educational qualifications, both of them would become expressionless. And that was the funniest thing that he had been expecting for a while.

Now that they found out Xin was just a high school student, they were feeling uncomfortable to address him by Sir. Seeing both of them have been muted, this time Xin broke the ice and asked them about them.

"Ah, brother Aisen, right? How old are you?"

Both of them snapped out of their daze and answered the question that was asked to them.

"Hehehe," Aisen started with a laugh and replied, "Sir, you are giving too much respect to me. I am just a technical staff of the JSDF research division. Ah, also I am 21."

"Me too, me too 21," Hiroshi added.

"Oh~~!! Then both of you are in the technical division? I knew about Hiroshi senpai since he had mentioned it earlier. But looking at Aisen senpai, I thought he must be in the combat division."

"Pfft, ahahahaha, ahahahahaha." The three of them started laughing and the serious atmosphere broke down.

Afterward, Aisen told him that he belonged to a family that has produced many outstanding army officers. He was also planning to join the combat division, but when they found out he had an aptitude for the technical division they recruited in the JSDF research division.

Xin, "Oh~~"

"Yes, and this guy still loves doing workouts and exercises."

"Oh, that explains his perfectly shaped abs and six-packs."

"Hahaha," Aisen laughed again and thanked Xin for his compliment.

Now that the atmosphere had lightened, the other two kept on asking Xin about him. Like how did he become an MVIP level guest, and why was he invited by their chief.

Xin didn't find any harm in answering their question and told them the entire story of how he met Mr. Nen and how he made contributions to a special project.

He omitted the part of Ryuu challenging him and told him an edited part of the story. Both of them were carefully listening to him and were joining the clues that they had in mind.

Xin was continuing his part of the story when Hiroshi interfered in the middle and asked, "Mr. Xin, by any chance you were talking about Project SEDS?"

Xin frowned and became alerted after hearing the name of the top-secret project. He wasn't expecting the trainee cadets to know about top secret things like that.
