Sneaking into the store rooms was an easier affair than expected. The amount of guards and staff were surprisingly sparse, making them easy to avoid or for Ai to knock out and hide. Eventually, your group comes by two doors right across from each other. Well, not exactly across, one’s about a couple feet farther down, but close enough.
That’s where your harem splits. Ayano takes Ai into the room on the right, which is the server room that controls the power to the building and has computers connected to Heinlein’s records. It’ll be important for Ayano to access both of these. But obviously, it’ll have staff in there protecting it, so Ai will in with her to take them out.
“Will you two be alright on your own?” Ai asked you and Kiyoko. It was no secret that she was the muscle of the group and was worried to separate where she couldn’t provide protection. Hell, she barely agreed to separate for the original plan.
“We’ll be fine. Especially after we rescue Izumi. She can handle anyone here, I’m sure,” you said.
Ai hesitated, but nodded believing in you. Soon Ayano dragged her into the server room, not wanting to waste time.
After that, it was your turn to be dragged into a strange room, this time by Kiyoko.
Inside the room was quite a sight. Inside the dark room were rows upon rows of mechanical pods, each containing the form of a militovan, mostly women and all naked except for the collar. None of them you recognized as Izumi, but you were still drawn to the sight of them. Not only because of their extra assets, but because these pods seemed quite compact. Like in order to display their bodies the way that they were, the people inside would need to go through serious contortion to fit their arms and legs.
“Uh, Shujiko? Can you help me out here?” Kiyoko grabs your attention.
“Oh, sure.” You ran over to the console she was using.
“I can’t find her in all this.” Kiyoko scrolled through all the slaves in the system, showing just how many people were in here.
“Have you tried searching her name?”
“I tried that, but they’re labeled by numbers. Guess they don’t have or were stripped of their names.”
Dang, this complicated things. How were you going to find Izumi now?
