Some time later in the day, Yoji got together with Kurata again and both received a new uniform to wear, after changing Yōji inspected himself in the new uniform "hmm? is this?...".

The guy handing out the new uniforms responded right away "yes, it's the Type Four uniform we were provided with recently".

Kurata smiled and continued on "in according with the Recon unit's investigation, we'll be changing over to these".

The JSDF soldier handing the new uniforms nodded "even though we have plenty of funding, it might take a while to get them out to all units".

Yōji hummed again and stared at the sleeves of his uniform, suddenly he grew curious about something "huh? then why did we get ours first then?".

The JSDF soldier stared at Yōji in silence for a little while "if I had to guess... it's because of that".

But Yōji didn't get what he was saying "what do mean by that!?"

But the JSDF soldier seemed to want to joke around a bit "I mean that, of course".

Yōji sighed "I don't get it".

The JSDF soldier however just continued on "I'm saying...the things you don't want to happen, Second Lieutenant, are happening".

Yōji frowned but didn't say anything, it seems that once again, he's going to be dragged into something troublesome and he wasn't looking forward to it.

A few days later.

A official statement from the Prime Minister Houjou Shigenori was being released at this momet, stating the current state of the events that happened after the Ginza attack and the citizens of Japan watched the televised event with rapt attention "Naturally, this land doesn't appear in any map, we don't know what lies beyond the GATE, and what is it like... everything is a mystery".

The Prime Minister had a small pause before continuing "there weren't many survivors among the attackers, but we were able to apprehend a few who seemed to be of high rank.

But these individuals are no better than criminals who have broken the law, in other words were considering them terrorists as of this moment".

On the streets of Akihabara, many citizens of Japan stopped walking and looked up towards the giant screen also showing the official statement "destroying the Gate won't solve this problem... we fear it would lead to the opening of another GATE somewhere else in Japan".

The citizens listen intently to what the Prime Minister was saying and explaining, though many had concern evident in their faces "thus, we have decided to consider, the land beyond the GATE, the Special Region a part of Japan".

Yōji was also watching the news in his room inside his apartment "and in order to learn what's on the other side, as well as to bring any forces there to the negotiation table, we have determined that it is necessary to go beyond the Gate, even if it's dangerous".

Yōji's eyes slightly narrowed as he heard that "for the purpose of investigating the Special Region, apprehending the ringleader of the Ginza incident, and securing compensation by force, the Japanese Government will dispatch the Self-defense Force to the other side of the GATE".

Yōji closed his eyes and lifted himself from the chair he was sitting on, he then tiredly threw himself onto his bed, he opened his eyes and sighed "I wonder if I'll get time off for the winter event...".

Yōji turned his head and stared at the few Doujinshis he was able to procure, he softly grabbed one and stared at it with a frown in his face.

Soon after many other countries also began to make official statements supporting Japan, but many knew the real reason for them wanting to send personal aid to them and founding.
