Why it never ends

Chapter 68 Hearing
When Chiba and the rescue team rushed into the safe room one after another, everything was over.

The ambulance personnel quickly carried Sean away, and after simple treatment of Turan's abdominal wound, they immediately sent her to the emergency room on the same floor.

Only Hesta was still sitting on the spot in a daze. She was covered in blood, and her hands were still holding the chelate's head tightly.

Qianye knelt down in front of her and called her name softly.

Hesta looked up at Qianye—there was also a silver-white border around Qianye's eyes, just like Turan's.

Hesta's throat moved slightly, and it took a long time before she opened her mouth as if talking to herself.

"I... killed a chelate, Miss Chiba."

Hesta lowered his head, slowly pulled the pistol out of the chelate's eye socket, and gently wiped off the remaining flesh and tissue on it.

"Use... the gun you gave me."

……

……

That night, in a conference room at the base, a total of six people participated in the AHgAs online meeting.Chiba's seat was always vacant, and she didn't ask for leave, nor did she attend.

This is an internal hearing for the Third District Reserve Base, which had such a major accident during Morley's tenure that AHgAs headquarters couldn't stay out of the way.

The hearing was jointly composed of five order officers from reserve bases in other regions. Morley needed to explain to them the cause of the accident, the progress of the accident handling and future preventive measures, and accept questions.

Only half a day has passed, and the investigation has begun to take shape—Since the beginning of the routine training for the second awakening this year, Turan has been applying for actual combat with chelates, and almost all the training teachers in the base know about Turan's battles Longing, although no one mentioned it, but many people felt sorry for her short bullet time. As a comfort to her, the actual combat training she applied for was basically passed.

But what everyone didn't notice was that because Turan had been receiving work-study subsidies from the base, she would undertake part of the base's affairs in her daily life.

This year, considering that she is an experienced second-year student, and she has been performing very well in the two years since entering the base, she was assigned to the training ground of the underground base to supervise the distribution of chelating compounds for training.

Originally, this job could be done by just sitting in the supervision room, but Turan had the authority to inspect the chelate cell.

"The second appendix of the document is Turan's complete confession." Molly's voice was a little tired, "In a nutshell, "This time the chelate involved had worked in the Research Institute of the Fourth District Military Region before his death, so the chelate The pathogenesis of combined diseases and the physiological mechanism of mercury needle awakening have a certain understanding.

"During an actual combat training, it told Turan that if a mercury needle can forcefully delay the arrival of Acheron's time by controlling his mental state before the bullet time ends, then the mercury needle's combat time can be be permanently extended.

"Afterwards, Turan checked the materials and indeed found some related records that were unclear. So she took advantage of her position to have a deeper contact with the chelate in private. During the period, the chelate cooperated with all of Turan's requests with great restraint— — It was also this experience that gave Turan the illusion of being able to cooperate with chelates.

"Because the base will record and screen the status of all reserve mercury needles entering the bullet time, it is impossible for Turan to make this attempt in the training ground-the security officer will force her to exit the field at the end of her bullet time. Wu Wu pointed out that it is familiar with the technology of the underground base, and knows how to temporarily shield the internal chips of the reserves without injury, but all this requires Turan to bring tools to its cell, and it can operate it by itself.

"Everyone knows what happened after that."

The entire meeting room was dark and silent.

The half-length projections of other participants floated on the desktops of the other five positions. Everyone's images showed a slight light blue color. Although they were in different spaces, their eyes all fell on the report documents in front of their respective desks.

"It makes sense, Ms. Morley." One of them raised his head, "But why did Hesta bring Sean to the scene at that moment? And she was carrying a gun?"

Molly couldn't help pinching the bridge of his nose lightly, "I don't know."

"I don't know?" The others were a little surprised. "In addition to the monitoring near the safe room, she should have had a gunfight with the chelate near the connection. What about the monitoring?"

"The content of these parts is a secret that will not be made public."

"...Is it a secret to us too?"

"Yes," Molly replied lightly, "If you are really curious about this reason, you can directly submit an application for permission to the headquarters."

"Its secrecy level is...?"

"'Top Secret,'" Morley replied, "for nine years."

The five order officers all frowned in unison, with playful expressions.

One of them suddenly coughed, "Actually, Molly, we all understand your recent pressure, and we are all paying attention to the recent demonstrations that broke out in the third district—"

"Two different things," Molly shook his head. "This is my dereliction of duty. I am willing to accept any treatment, including dismissal and—"

"That's not enough, Molly. In the past, such hearings were all public, but this time it was turned into a private meeting. I think you can also feel the attitude of the headquarters on this matter..." After finishing speaking, he looked at Several other participants, "I personally don't have any other questions to ask, what about you?"

"I do not have either."

"No."

"No."

"Nothing."

The man said again, "Then, should our hearing be over?"

Everyone's eyes met, and they smiled tacitly again.

A middle-aged woman on the left side of Molly looked at Molly, "Maybe we should congratulate you, Molly? I saw part of the surveillance of this accident... This should be the reserve girl named Hesta Is it the first time to face the enemy after the second awakening? She can perform so well in the bullet time for the first time, and she will be a good seedling for the future..."

Hearing the other party's relaxed congratulations, Molly felt calm.

She took off her glasses and slowly leaned back on the soft chair behind her.In all her decades at the Third Sector base, she had rarely shown such a lethargic side.

The others didn't know the details, and Molly wasn't going to argue. Hesta didn't wake up a second time.

The base has examined Hesta's eyes and there really isn't any sign of an 'iris reaction' there.

It's unbelievable, but it's true—she hunted and killed the chelate without a second awakening, with a combat quality comparable to that of Mercury Needle.
