Chapter 39: Crossbell's Situation
As the breathless translucent shield vanished into thin air, Dudley's clenched frown finally loosened a little. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Well done, boys.
He blessed the children of Cross Bell's Special Mission Support Section in his heart.
Although they are newcomers, and moreover, they are all young people, and some can only be called children.
A few months ago, he was still such an unreliable person...... Unconsciously......
"Dudley Investigator?"
Perhaps sensing his boss's distraction, the voice of the female investigator next to him called back his will.
"Well, it's fine. Keep searching. ”
Dudley prevaricated as he continued to distribute the already stretched police force to all corners of Crossbell.
It seems that they are searching Guy without dead ends, but in fact, as long as you have a little search and learn common sense, you will know that this will only cause the patrol to weaken, and it will be easier for Guy to escape. In particular, Guy himself is an excellent investigator.
Moreover, the guerrilla associations seem to be helping as well......
Dudley was torn.
I want to capture Guy and come back, but I don't want to clash with him head-on......
As Dudley himself said, he hated Guy, and the two acted in a completely incompatible style.
However, he had a lot of respect for Guy. Because there are really too few people like him who sincerely act for their own justice. In that lifeless police station, Guy was too dazzling. The people in the police station are a plate of loose sand, and they are sparse stars in the night sky. And Guy is the sun.
When the sun appears, the stars lose their brilliance in an instant.
He's such a person.
Dudley didn't like him, and that didn't stop him from respecting Guy.
Therefore, Dudley did not want Guy, who had been reborn with great difficulty, to lose his life again because of that weak justice.
As long as...... As long as it is safe and slowly spreads his sense of justice to the police station, everyone will be together......
Dudley genuinely hopes that Guy won't do anything stupid.
I......
Really...... You're getting weak......
Thinking so, Dudley pushed down his glasses to keep himself from thinking about these things.
――――――――
That is to say...... Mr. Arios, it is indeed ......"
The Guerrilla Association, which had been talked about by Dudley, was now also worried about fragments.
The reason, of course, was the betrayal of Crossbell's premier partisan, Mr. Arios.
After hearing about Vincent, Michelle kept an eye on it, carefully checked Arios's itinerary, and finally found that something was wrong.
Since at least three years ago, "blank time" has been appearing in Arios' schedule. For example, a task was solved quickly, but the time to go back was delayed. Or the trip is temporarily canceled, but there is no report, etc. At first, Michelle wondered if he was too tired and making a mistake in the chaos - after all, for the sake of small drops of surgery, Arrios's schedule was always the fullest in the Guerrilla Guild.
However, once or twice can explain it...... But there are too many.
Moreover, in terms of Arios's character, if this kind of mistake really occurred, he would definitely explain and apologize afterwards. But no. He chose to hide it......
In the face of the table that Michelle sorted out, everyone was silent.
Seeing that his words were not answered, Wen Caier coughed and hid his embarrassment: "In short, it seems that I heard that Mr. Arios resigned from his job in the Guerrilla Association and settled in the Orchid Tower with Xiaodi...... Sure enough, he ...... It's a rebel, right? ”
"I can't let go of it...... Why, exactly? Money? If you want money, it's okay if you put it together together, right? ”
Lin frantically scratched at her hair, and her soft and smooth purple hair was turned into a terrible chicken nest by herself.
"No...... I think it's probably something more rooted......"
At Lin's side, Aiolia's face became even heavier...... It's hard to imagine that this gentle girl would show such a heavy expression.
"I ...... I have been to Santa Ulsla Medical University to help before...... And then...... I heard about ......"
The droplet's eye healed.
This is the hottest topic in the hospital.
Droplet's eyes were blinded by some kind of "man-made accident" in childhood.
Even Remephilia, who is famous for her medicine, has no way to restore the sight of Droplet's eyes.
However......
Suddenly, one day......
No, it should be said that on the day Qi Ya was taken away, Xiao Di's eyes were miraculously healed.
For Arios, this was probably his only concern.
He can accept his wife's death and understand that people cannot be resurrected after death, so he transferred all his love and guilt for his wife to Xiao Di. It is no exaggeration to say that Arios's life revolves around the droplet......
If that's what the association does...... It is not difficult to understand the rebellion of Arios.
"That's really ......"
Michelle also had to admit that if it was a droplet, it might indeed make Arios rebel......
"So, Michelle, what are we going to do?"
It was Scott who spoke.
It sounded like he was asking, but the deep regret in his tone made all five people present feel hopeless.
It sounds like an inquiry, but in reality, it's a declarative sentence.
Powerless.
This is the only answer.
One of the principles of the guerrillas is that they must never meddle in the internal affairs of the state.
It's a pity that the current Crossbell is an independent country. No one could meddle in Crossbell's affairs under any circumstances. It is impossible to arrest Archduke Dita, or to rebel against the current rule. It's okay to fight the association, but ...... The association has always been known for its mystery, and there is no trace of it at all.
"It would be nice if You Jun was still here."
Aiolia couldn't help but sigh.
Unexpectedly, this emotion was unanimously approved by everyone present.
If that person were the person, he would definitely put himself in the shoes of an outsider and apply directly to the guerrilla association, right? Taking advantage of the loopholes in the rules of the guerrilla association, he is such an all-pervasive person.
Knock knock.
Just when everyone was a little depressed, suddenly there was a knock on the door from the first floor.
Everyone looked at each other, Lin took the initiative to stand up, ran to the door and opened the door.
"Yo...... This is the Guerrilla Association...... I have a commission. ”
What appeared in front of Lin was a middle-aged uncle who exuded a decadent atmosphere from his bones, messy hair, dead fish eyes that could clearly see lack of sleep, sparse stubble, and cigarette butts with a decadent breath from the corners of his mouth.
"I want to ...... There is no such rule that the police cannot make a commission, right? ”
――――――――――――
"The barrier is gone!"
In the puppet workshop, Ling let out a giggle like a silver bell and jumped off, her small black leather shoes striking the same crisp sound on the steel floor.
"Oh...... Pretty capable, isn't it? ”
The old man Jonah, who was buried in the blueprints, did not look back, and casually gave an affirmative answer.
"Hey, grandpa, you can be a little happier!"
Ling seemed a little dissatisfied, and she snorted and got tired of Jonachus's back.
The old man Jonah had no choice but to withdraw his gaze from the blueprint in front of him.
"If it's a support section, that's normal."
Truly.
Although the old man Jonah is not a supporter of the support department, he can make that nasty f Novatis deflated, and he is still secretly happy to be reasonable.
Jonagus and the "Doctor" don't deal with each other.
F. Novartis, who is known as the Doctor, was once a student of Jonachus. In conductivity, Jonagus's achievements are comparable to Liber's "father of conductivity" Russell.
However, the "Doctor" stole Jonagus' research......
Moreover, the Wise Men also trampled on Jonagus's bottom line. also trampled on the most basic bottom line as a human being.
For the sake of research, humanity was abandoned.
That's right, it's the plan named "Super Extreme Weapon".
The first machine is Rei's Patil Matiel.
After that, it is the extended and improved model, that is, the three god machines.
It's not uncommon for researchers to go their separate ways because of different philosophies. Jonagus scoffed at the damned plans that the Wise Men had proposed.
One of the basic requirements of a machine is to be able to be used.
From this point of view, Novartis is simply garbage.
Patil Matiel can't be completely mastered even by Ling, and before Ling, there are countless children who have become crazy because of it.
To use the human brain to only match the machine or something, that is simply a fantasy.
Ling is a special case because Ling is in a special situation.
First of all, Ling is a multiple personality.
She grew up in a place called "Paradise", which in fact was the place of smoke and willows for the nobles. In order to maintain herself in that miserable place, Ling forcibly split her personality into several.
Secondly, it was Ling's other personalities who died.
Because she couldn't bear the perverted needs of those high-ranking officials and nobles, Ling's personality to protect herself was shattered one after another.
This is the decisive difference between Rei and other children.
Ling used to be multiple personalities, and now, only one personality remains.
It's like a dormitory that once housed eight people, and now, only one remains. However, the dormitory itself has not changed, and it can still accommodate eight people.
Ling occupies a part by herself, and the rest, can be given to Patil Martier.
In Ling's subconscious, Patil Matil is a "new personality" for her, a personality that protects herself from being bullied by anyone. Yes, she didn't go crazy.
If there is no Ling, this damn super extreme-level weapon is simply a "super garbage-level weapon". It's in the powerful firepower again, and if you can't start it, it's garbage!
Novartis ignored this and shamelessly continued to develop new models......
That is, the god machine.
This is a body that does not borrow the power of the Arcana and has problems just by activating it......
Hehe, a weapon that is even a problem to start! What is this!
His own research in conductive mechanics was actually used by the inheritors to use it in the evil way! And on the contrary, because Patil Matil has come up with results...... The association recognized his achievements!
For this reason, Jonagus left in anger, which is why he lived in seclusion in Crossbell, obviously a part of the snake, but no longer working for the snake and concentrating on making dolls.
Be downhearted.
Jonachus was happy to hear that the plan with Novatis' involvement had been ruined.
Moreover, listening to Ling's statement, it seems that there is a divine machine that has been destroyed!
Hahahaha, you deserve it!
The old man's heart was filled with the pleasure of revenge.
"Ah...... That, me, I'm back......"
Dressed roughly, a girl with a reddish-brown double ponytail leads her way to the underground of the puppet workshop under the guidance of a petite automaton.
She wore a martial arts dress, carried a long stick in her hand, and dragged a very exaggerated bag in the other hand. There was a clattering sound of metal colliding inside.
"That...... You, you want parts, I bought them all! ”
"Ah, Astelle! You know what! The barrier has been lifted! ”
"Huh?! It's true?! Then you can get in touch with Joshua! ”
Seeing that the acquaintance came back, Ling happily let go of Jonagus, the speed and decisiveness of the reaction made the old man feel a little lonely: The woman is not staying...... He can only sigh like this.
Maybe it's because of the guilt of Ling, Jonachus has always had a compensatory concern for Ling, and over time, this cheerful and lively little girl has integrated into Jonagus's life like a granddaughter.
Lonely......
The old man's eyes looked at Estelle, who was smiling happily, and after reminiscing, a faint joy welled up in his heart.
Ling has suffered too much, I hope this cheerful girl can give her a warm family.
With such a mood, Jonacus looked at Ling and the girl, silent. (To be continued.) )
