Chapter 64: The Informer
Bustling pedestrians, everything is calm. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info may have been a short time in the past, and the wanted criminal named "Hades" gradually faded out of people's sight, and it was not until Patrick broadcast about Ikaya all over the city that the name was remembered.
However, without conclusive evidence, no amount of plausibility is convincing. In the turbulent tide of thought, the most important thing people lack is the daily headlines, dazzling all kinds of important news overflowing their eyes, and the freshness of new information in their minds is less than a day. Patrick understands that if he wants to ride this ride to his goal, he has to be on the cusp.
This speech is just a delaying tactic, and once the incident cools down, the Luo Lian government will try to block them and completely calm down the incident. The top priority is to find one more clue before the Luo government acts.
However, the information obtained by Hyperion is no longer valuable, and the madness cannot find any more clues for the time being.
"Dead end," said madly and dismayedly, "we're just wanted criminals with a valuable head." ”
"Well, contact the commander and talk to him. ”
Madness sent a communication request, and when connected, Patrick briefed the Commander on their actions in Blackhorn Harbor, most of which had been mentioned in the broadcast earlier today.
"I know the general situation," said the commander, after listening to Patrick's report, "anyway, there is no new information in our favor right now, and we can't make any moves." Why don't you come back to Hyber Rondu first and think about it in the long run?"
"Those who oppose us are not fuel-efficient lamps," said Patrick, "and I'm afraid that the hideout of Hyperondo has been exposed, and we will not have a chance to start over." ”
"Huh, are there any such people?" said the commander flirtatiously, "and what are you going to do?"
"That's why we contacted you because we didn't know. ”
"Uh...... Even if you ask me, I'll ......" the commander paused, "Maybe you can look it up......"
"What? Do you have a clue?"
"I don't know if it's true. A man whose name is Pascal. ”
As soon as the commander said the name, the madness began to investigate.
"Who is she?"
"A doctor, said to be a member of the former 90wish, later partnered with I.O.P. manufacturing company to provide technical support. I.O.P also gave Pascal financial support and helped her set up 16LAB. ”
"You know each other?" asked Patrick again.
"Well, it's an acquaintance. Pascal had entrusted me with an errand, and she owed me a favor and a cup of coffee. ”
"Whew~" A whistling sound was inserted into the conversation between the two. Maybe the madness found something.
"There's no name Pascal on the general public website, Commander, even the I.O.P. Manufacturing Company's website doesn't mention Pascal and 16LAB very much~"
The implication of madness is that this is a big fish.
Pascalia, last name unknown, former 90wish member, broke away from 90wish during World War III and worked with the I.O.P Manufacturing Company. She specialized in the development of humanoid weapons and the practical technology they carried, and independently developed the 'Dummy Network' technology in 16LAB, which was later created with I.O.P. funding, which led to the birth of the second generation of humanoids. 16LAB is a research team led entirely by Pascal, whose main research topic is the 'Zener Protocol' left over from 90wish. As an aside, the etching theory is Pascal's personal research, and she applied this theory to develop 'ASST', or 'branding technique'. The combination of etching theory and Zener protocol led to the development of a 'puppet network'. ”
"In other words, is Pascal's collaboration with I.O.P. ultimately about being interested in heritage technology?"
"It's a little different," said Mad Madness, "the techniques that Pascal is working on are things that translate existing theories of ruin technology into practical applications, not techniques like I.O.P. trying to dig deep into the ruins. However, Pascal's research can also give feedback to a certain extent about the relics technology, and there is also the possibility of peeking into the essence of things from the application, and then it can also create the illusion that the human form is a robot, so I.O.P chose to cooperate. ”
Is it a good thing to promote research and kill two birds with one stone.
"You're talking about Pascal a little scary, and as far as I know she's not that kind of person, mad. The commander said.
"Oh, you think. Pascal has been engaged in these studies for a long time, and is a member of 90wish, so she naturally knows what the nature of the human form is. But do you think she can tell anyone? She has enough information that threatens the very foundation of the government and the I.O.P. Manufacturing Company, past and present. If she had told others, the I.O.P. and the government would have killed people, not just her, and all those who knew would have been wiped out. If she told you, who else was going to fight against the Iron Will, and who was going to protect the Tactical Humanoids?"
There was silence on the other end of the communication, and the far-sighted commanders on the battlefield did not expect such a shady scene, which is indeed amazing.
"So, can we just find her and let her prove that our speculation is true?"
"Well, the words of the former 90wish members are enough to confirm it. ”
"That's fine, can you find her place?"
"Piece of cake. But before that," said Madness unhurriedly, "should we be ready to welcome guests?"
As soon as the voice ended, the power to the entire room was cut off. Plunged into darkness, Patrick hurriedly grabbed his rifle and stood still, listening carefully to the movement outside.
When Mad learns that someone is coming, it is natural that the surveillance video on the street has been turned off, and if he does this, Patrick can only think of one person.
But how did she know the exact location of their hideout?
As he used the scan to reconnoitre, the wall in front of him shattered with the sound of an explosion, and the impact blew sawdust into his face. Holding it with his arm, the searchlight shone in, and the room shone as brightly as day.
Immediately after that, the same method was used, and the first floor of Baicaotang was also destroyed.
Patrick's body was covered with countless red spots, but even so, he still calmly raised the "Saker" in his hand.
Sure enough, it was her. The sheriff of Hyperondu stood in the middle of a half-arc of encirclement, carrying a megaphone in his hand. Patrick glanced at the helicopters and police cars, had they used so much police force to contain them......
"Hades, lay down your arms, I'm here to negotiate with you. The loudspeaker echoed the sheriff's voice.
"Attention, all," Patrick whispered, "be ready to fight back." 95, as soon as I make a move, you will leave with the old lady immediately, understand?"
"But, sir...... We haven't even armed ourselves yet......"
"Didn't I say the guns are all within reach?"
"Well, but, our guns ......"
"What's the matter, Hades?" the sheriff's voice interrupted their conversation, "You can't be whispering, planning to fight back? ”
Patrick stared at her, the confident smile on the sheriff's lips was not normal......
"Click!" he heard the sound of a bullet loading, and a hard metal object against the back of his head.
"Stop, Patrick. ”
Tilting his head slightly, he knew who it was without seeing his face.
"Kira?"
