Castle Under the Moon (23)

"When the Floating Island was established, most of the races that needed to be segregated were immediately transferred, but it is difficult to think that that was all of them. The predecessor of the 'Special Investigation Bureau' to which I belonged was www.biquge.info to hunt down the few 'fish that had slipped through the net' at the time. Although the functions of the Special Investigation Section have been adjusted several times since then, we have not stopped searching for the remnants of the people who are displaced or hiding on the mainland. ”

Speaking of this, Susia paused slightly. Some text descriptions and photographs flashed in front of her eyes during the study, but she quickly adjusted her mood.

In her description, Susia obscured as many words and details as possible to hide the smell of blood from the cracks in history 400 years ago. In most cases, the word "mandatory" should be added in front of the so-called transfer; And the subsequent pursuit also has an additional explanation such as "those who resist fiercely are allowed to be cleared". That period of history more than 400 years ago is mixed with all kinds of bizarre and tortuous stories, which are just a few lines of concise and empty words in the perception of ordinary people on the mainland. But for those who have access to real and detailed information, it is a burden on their shoulders.

When she first learned about that history, Susia's heart was shocked beyond words. The gory pictures and cold numbers even shook her faith, and several of the reservists who were training with her applied for withdrawal on the spot, which was immediately approved by the instructors. Puzzled by this, Sucia chose to look for the answer in the document, and it didn't take long for her to turn to the last page of the document, where a passage from the first president was printed.

"It is a victory of the many over the few, and it is not justice but rightness - at least what we believe to be right at this moment. But what we chose and sacrificed for the sake of this correctness is something that cannot be forgotten. ”

Those who can't afford the past of the Seed Management Council are not qualified to carry its future, and Susia gets the answer.

To this day, Susya can't tell if that choice was right or wrong, and probably won't even be able to find a result in her lifetime, but the only thing that gives her comfort is that the DMC doesn't cover up this history, but chooses to leave it to the future to decide. Even if Susya can't wait, time will give an answer someday.

But there was no need to let the two boys and girls on the other side know that they were at the brightest age of their lives, and that they were not members of the Seed Council, and that there was no need to agonize over what was wrong more than 400 years agoβ€”this was the subtle consideration that Sucia had hidden behind her serious face, and yet such empathetic considerations were not necessary at all.

Neither Hill nor Alex is the ignorant and sluggish type. In fact, when Susya mentioned the history of the Floating Island, they were already vaguely aware of the iron-blooded methods hidden behind. For such a plan to be successfully implemented, it is simply impossible to go without bloodshed. But how much blood was shed, they didn't know, and they didn't want to dig deeper.

Deliberately pulling the topic downward, Alex asked softly.

"Is that girl one of the remnants you are talking about?"

"That's right, she's an Ampoti orphan that our investigators stumbled upon by accident." Susia nodded, and said slowly: "She and her mother originally lived in the courtyard of a remote town, and they were very simple on weekdays, and they didn't interact with other people in the town at all. My colleague passed by when her mother had just died, and he had picked up the Ambotis in other people's accounts and the remains, so he took the girl back to a nearby branch - as you might have guessed, she was sent to the Floating Island after a medical examination, and then adopted by the target's neighbors. ”

"Is it true that she had become 'abnormal' before she was sent to the Floating Island?"

It should be like this, she has been living on the mainland with her mother, although she does not interact with the outside world, but she is exposed to books and knowledge of the general race. And most importantly, her mother also seems to have the intention of correcting her in this direction. ”

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

Hearing Susia's words, Alex couldn't help but blink.

"At the time of the medical examination of the girl, my colleagues also conducted other investigations. Her mother was a scholar and had published a considerable number of papers in the academic community using a pseudonym, which were basically theories and experiments on adjusting the spiritual structure of the Amboti people and eliminating their special mental characteristics, which were said to be of considerable feasibility. ”

"Huh!?" Alex's eyes widened, "In that case, why don't you contact you together?" If we work together, we will be able to achieve results in no time, right? ”

Hearing the girl's question, Susya had a complicated expression on her face.

"Miss Alex, I mentioned earlier that our internal racial transformation program against the Ampoti has been stopped by the residents of Floating Island 303."

"Ah......h

"Respecting the wishes of all races, without posing a threat to other races, is our number one priority. Because they didn't want to be changed, our research stopped, and after that, the mother was the only one who tried to do this. ”

"I kept trying on my own, but my own people didn't have the idea of this at all...... That is, is it complete wishful thinking? ”

Muttering this, Alex felt a little pitiful for the man.

"Exactly." Susia nodded in agreement: "Because she can't get the approval of others, this wishful mother can only conduct research alone...... After making experimental drugs, she had to try them herself, and her death was the result of constantly experimenting with herself and overusing drugs. ”

β€œβ€œ.…..””

Alex accompanies Ciel into silence.

"In any case, perhaps because of this family influence, or perhaps because the mother finally produced a successful finished drugβ€”in any case, the girl's mental anatomy does not seem to be any different from that of the general race......

"Wait a minute!" Alex suddenly interrupted Susia loudly, her eyes filled with shock: "Did you send her to the Floating Island even though you knew her 'anomaly' - knowing that she was mentally like us!?" ”

Encountering this "unreasonable" situation, Alex's emotions appeared very excited.

"Alex, calm down. Possibly, it will be found out later. ”

Ciel tugged at her sleeve from the side.

Questioned by the girl, Susia closed her eyes slightly, and then slowly opened them again.

"I don't know if my colleague found out about it later. But according to our rules, even if you already know about it, nothing will change what you want to do. ”

"What are you talking about-"

"Since you are an Ambotian, you should be sent to the floating island where the Amboti live. Although it is emotionally difficult to accept, according to the regulations, even if she is found to have problems with her mental structure, the place where she should stay is not the mainland, but the psychiatric hospital on Floating Island 303. ”

"Psychiatric Hospital ......"

Knowing what she meant, Alex's anger slowly heated. But when the anger reached its peak, she became calm.

"What if it's you? What would you do? Will you send her to the Floating Island too? ”

β€œ.…..” The girl's suppressed anger echoed in Susia's ears, and she did not flinch from facing this indignation, but her heart was mired in a choice.

Time passed in silence, and Susia finally came up with her own answer.

"A momentary 'anomaly' does not guarantee that her Ampoti identity will never be awakened, whether it is for the sake of risk or according to the regulations, it is undoubtedly the most correct choice to hand over the Ampoti to the Ampoti themselves." Speaking of this, the young captain, who had always been serious and capable, smiled slightly wryly: "- However, I am not always right. ”
