The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

"What's going on with Kevin now? Also, is Dr. Mei injured?"

"Dr. Mei was slightly injured, but Captain Kevin he...he..."

"What's wrong with him, tell me!"

Himi shouted out the hearts of everyone present.

"he……"

Aldemir's lips squirmed twice, and then he seemed to have been sucked out of all the bones in his body, and fell to the ground again, limp, like a puddle of meat that had lost its bone support.

Chapter 29 【It's over...】

When Himiko and Ken walked into the battle room, they found that all the heads of various departments had arrived, from Erwin to Cangxuan, Danzhu, to Spaci, Bolong, and Karabis. , Carabia brothers and sisters, almost everyone is waiting for them.

Of course, Vasago and Lezren are also indispensable.

"Where's Dr. May?"

Vasago asked with a frown, his face seemed particularly ugly.

"Dr. Mei... When the firewall fails, we can't enter the laboratory where she was unlocked using authorization authentication, and she doesn't seem to want to talk to us, so she directly locked all the passages with mechanical locks."

Himiko looked past Vasago, and looked at Lezren who looked like he had nothing to do with himself.

"Oh? What are you looking at me for? Do you think I initiated this matter? Please, please - do you think I'm such a mindless person? What good does it do me?"

Lezren directly used a series of naked rhetorical questions to forcefully stuff Himiko's question back into his throat, and also invisibly tore off the last fig leaf of Chaser Moth.

So, at least everyone in the situation room at this moment, whether they were aware of it or not, can now see the ever-expanding gap between the high levels.

Ken gently touched Himiko with his elbow, and reminded in a low voice: "He's right, he doesn't need to do that, and this kind of inferior method is not like his style."

Scar seemed to be trying his best to cover up the crack, so he raised his head and continued to report without waiting for Himiko's answer:

"Captain Kevin's current situation is still unknown. According to Aldemir, Kevin seems to be..."

"Seems like what?"

Vasago quickly realized that this was a meaningless question. Fortunately, Hen also understood this, and gave an answer that didn't answer the question:

"I have had someone take him to the confinement room, and outsiders are not allowed to contact him for the time being."

"So... Commander, what should we do next?"

As if a certain switch was touched, Vasago's brain suddenly emptied.

Memories of the fourth Honkai came to his mind, and he unconsciously turned his gaze to Lezren, as if he wanted to ask this guy for help.

And Lezren just sipped the red wine one after another, which made him realize that the other party's mood might not be as indifferent as he had always shown.

Well, there was no one who could help him now, or at least not since the time when he had taken the position so unprepared and worked so hard.

It's just, [If it was him, what would he do? 】

Vasago still couldn't help thinking about this question.

After a while, he finally opened his mouth and made an arrangement:

"Hen, during the period when Kevin's condition is unknown, please return to the first team as the captain."

"Yes!"

Hen first stood up and obeyed habitually, and then an emotion called "Nahan" flashed in his mind.

[Vasago actually used such a tone when he assigned orders?So familiar... Wait, this isn't...]

"The first team, the second team, the third team, and the fifth team immediately put the base under martial law, and the fourth team immediately went to the scene of the incident to investigate and collect evidence. Except for the personnel of the above five teams and the relevant departments responsible for restoring network communication , the rest of the staff put down all the work at hand, and kept quiet on the spot. At the same time, implement information control... Oh, does this seem impossible? In short, during the martial law, anyone tried to spread rumors, or to shake people's hearts, martial law soldiers After a warning, he can be executed on the spot without reporting!"

"It's really the style of Famas..."

Ken and Himiko looked at each other silently.

Under this arrangement, kindness and cruelty go hand in hand, like a product of some kind of entanglement.

The selection of personnel is also very interesting. The first, second, third, and fifth teams are in charge of martial law, and the fourth team is responsible for investigating the scene and collecting evidence.

This arrangement is undoubtedly wrong from the perspective of combat. Since the opponent can injure Kevin without anyone noticing, the actions of the fourth team are obviously extremely dangerous.On the whole, it seems more reasonable for Himiko, who is currently second only to Kevin in strength, to go to the scene.

But this is only purely for combat considerations. The reason why the fourth team was chosen is actually very particular—obviously, Vasago also locked the identity of the murderer on Mikael in the first place... Maybe it wasn't him, but He is the prime suspect.

Then, in order to avoid suspicion, Himiko must not be able to investigate the scene. It is better to send the fourth team, which is currently the most "neutral", to go.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the hoarse voice of the man in front of him and the terrifying face covered with scars, Himiko would have almost shouted Farmas' name.

"What? Is there a problem?"

"No."

"Then carry out the order!"

"Yes!"

Himiko saluted respectfully, turned and left.

After everything was restored to order—at least on the surface, Vasago asked Lezren in a rare calm tone:

"You said, is the murderer really Mikael?"

"Pfft..."

Lezren laughed outright.

Vasago was naturally not happy about this response, but Lezren obviously didn't intend to say anything more.

So, in the end, he could only seek answers from himself.

He must first force himself to calm down and dispel the fear hidden deep in his heart.

Yes, fear.

It's fear again!

The other party was able to be so close to the headquarters base of the Firemoth...even in the base, without triggering any alarm or attracting anyone's attention, at least he seriously injured Kevin-this is What concept?

There are two possibilities: Either the murderer is Herrscher, which is almost naming Mikael.But if it's him, it doesn't make sense.

Thinking of what Lezren said earlier, Vasago finally got some insight—if Mikael is the murderer, what is his purpose?

Looking at it from a normal perspective, he has no reason to do so, and even Vasago knows very well that if he really wants to attack the flame moth, he should unite Kevin and Mei, and then...

Could that be out of control?Or did Mikael and May have a falling out while plotting and ended up fighting?

This is possible in theory, but it still doesn’t make sense in practice, because one of the most critical evidences is missing—Honkai can react.

After careful calculation, the hacking of the network and the attack on Kevin should have happened at the same time. Perhaps the attacker thought that hacking the network would block the Honkai monitoring equipment?

If it was like this before the fire moth was invaded by Weiwei, but since then, especially after Weiwei reappeared and joined the anti-entropy, many key facilities of the fire moth have been "reversed", and mechanical Manipulation, response means.

For example, Dr. Mei's laboratory currently uses a mechanical lock to cut off the connection with the outside world, and the Honkai can reflect the monitoring equipment. The movement was a little slow, and the first round of attacks failed to affect it, so the fire moth still got the reading.

【87hw】

[Duration: 3 seconds]

That must not be the reaction caused by the battle at the Herrscher level.

It's like assassination...

And only Kevin was seriously injured, and the fact that Mei seems to be fine also confirms this-it should be an assassination, and it was a long-distance assassination.

Soul steel bow and arrow?Anti-Honkai beast sniper rifle?In short, the murderer hurriedly retreated as soon as he succeeded in the blow, without making up the knife.

Can be assassinated...

cherry?

No, why is the train of thought always leading to anti-entropy?

and many more……

[No, that should be me selectively ignoring something! 】

Vasago suddenly felt something was wrong.

If it is not an external enemy, if you want to sneak in without anyone noticing and successfully assassinate Kevin, then there must be a traitor inside.

And inside the Flaming Moth, there are those who are capable of carrying out this assassination mission...

Isn't that one of his own...

"Command, Chief of Staff, the hacker's intrusion has been repelled, the firewall has been restored... wait a minute, Command, it seems that some of your files have been... this... this is..."

Vasago had just wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead when he heard a familiar voice from the stereo in the war room:

"Hey, isn't this the invincible Vasago, long time no see."

【This is Mikael?Familiar words...]

He quickly found the corresponding memory, and unsurprisingly, his complexion began to turn pale as paper.Because soon his own recognizable voice sounded in the speaker:

【It's over...】

It was a recording of his conversation with Mikael.

[Why...Yin Mo'er should have deleted all of these early tomorrow! 】

The scalp tingled for a while, and then the darkness in the eyes gradually expanded, swallowing the last trace of sanity.

The invincible Vasago fell again.

Chapter 30 Looking down on the world

[Now let's assume that there is a train carrying something you cherish. If you continue to move forward along the existing track, you will inevitably fall into a bottomless abyss.But if we choose to pry open the existing track out of "good intentions", the train will rush to the field and eventually roll over, still unable to escape the fate of destruction. 】

[If we insist on "rescue" in this way, it will not change the fate of the train's destruction, and our "rescue" will cause the train to be destroyed in advance. 】

[But is it just sitting there waiting to die? 】

【Just let the train go and chase into the abyss forever? 】

[Can you easily ignore the things you cherish on the train, and the things you don't want to lose and just say goodbye to you? 】

[No, there is still a way after all. 】

[We believe that there is no unparalleled road, precisely because there is often more than one road.Different paths may lead to the same result, or they may be completely opposite. 】

【Then, let’s go back to the train issue——】

[Is there really no way to save it? 】

[No, there are, and there are more than one kind. 】

[The first method is naturally very simple: just reconnect the railway bridge on the abyss. 】

[The second method seems complicated, that is, select two forks on the railways on both sides of the abyss, build a new track to connect them together, and then let the train drive into the new track, then "she" can jump Get rid of the shackles of the abyss, get rid of the end of "her" given by fate, so as to obtain a truly free life. 】

"You see, this is my method."

Mikael leaned against the railing at the door of the dormitory, resting on his hands. He kept deliberating on the words in his mind, but it was difficult to find the completely appropriate words to explain everything to the "participant".

Many arrangements have already been put on track, and now only a few pieces are missing...

[No, no, what track?What hypocrisy! 】

In the courtyard in the early morning, Hua had already practiced boxing back and forth twice, and then he rolled his eyes at Mikael, who was still in a daze, with a flash of dissatisfaction in his expression - this guy, obviously at this time yesterday, promised He will bring Paduo to the training ground on time, but now Paduo is gone, and he himself is just in a daze.

Of course, if Mikael is willing to make an excuse, he can still make an excuse: he was busy with some things last night, and used the power of the Second Herrscher to go back and forth many times, and he was a little tired both mentally and physically.

In the shadows on the other side of the courtyard, Sakura is teaching bell swordsmanship sternly. There is no way to do this. If she had a choice, she would naturally like Ling to go to school like other children. But in this era, self-preservation Ability is more important than anything else.Ling's talent is naturally not as good as her sister's, but fortunately, the little girl has good perseverance. No matter the cold or heat, she is not afraid of wind and rain, she practices diligently every day, which makes the current Mikael feel ashamed.

Because his mind is full now—he ate ice watermelon again today, hehehe.

The aroma of porridge wafted in the air, presumably it was Wei Wei's masterpiece.

Mebius disappeared, presumably sleeping in the laboratory like countless nights before.

Qian Jie moved out of the Golden Court very early, and confined himself to the small guard room outside the sanatorium almost as if he was imprisoned. At this time, he should have met Su who was going to give the children a fasting physical examination.

Mikael opened the closed door of his room. Even after a night, there was still a dark fragrance overflowing. With the splash of the morning sun, the light particles gathered into a beam of light. Mikael rubbed to the side and entered the range of the beam of light Inside, the naked eye can see the scale-like substance escaping in the air, which is the trace left by Alponia's coming and going.

Suddenly, a yellow bird flashed in front of his eyes, and its bean-sized eyes reflected Mikael's slightly pale face.Between the fluttering of the wings, the chirping sound of "chirp chirping" was endless, and the sound of the bird chirping was like an alarm clock. With this as a boundary, the whole world in front of me began to come alive, and the faint noise began to echo in the world.
