The President's Office is located on the 16th floor. That is, the top level of the IBC.

Since ancient times, it seems that someone has set a rule, but if there is a big person, he must be in the highest place or the deepest place. President Dita is no exception.

For Ellie's sake, Bell brought the three members of the Support Section to the President's Office, despite being unhappy with the three members of the Support Section, in a private sense.

If Mariabel really is the kind of person who is free to act arbitrarily regardless of good or bad, I am afraid Ellie will not have such a good relationship with her.

Should I say, is it worthy of the president's office?

Porcelain, paintings, potted plants, sofas, desks, and carpets are all expensive to the point of emotion. Lloyd roughly calculated the prices of the furniture, compared his own salary, and suddenly felt that he couldn't stop crying.

"Oh, a mix of young people. What a rare guest. ”

In front of the desk, there is a golden mid-hairstyle, and a middle-aged man in a red delicate suit shows a hearty smile. Speaking of red suits, Lubacher's cadres, Vincent also often wears red suits, but compared to this person, Vincent's suit looks a little shabby.

"Uncle Dita."

Ellie bowed lightly to the middle-aged president, her movements were simple, but the aura of the eldest lady between her gestures was unmistakable.

"Ah, Ellie, long time no see. I haven't seen you for almost half a year, it's great to see you so energetic. ”

President Dita smiled heartily as she spoke, glanced at everyone, and said, "So, you are Ellie's colleagues?" ”

"Yes, my name is Lloyd Bannings. I'm sorry to bother you without an appointment. ”

As the captain, Lloyd seemed a little nervous, after all, his every move represented the support department, and he didn't want to leave any bad impression about the support department.

"It doesn't matter. Ellie's friend, don't be so inhibited. ”

President Dita said, showing her white teeth and smiling, if it was a comic or something, at this time the background must be all kinds of small stars shining.

"I'm Randy Orlando, please advise."

"Theo Prato, please advise."

"This is Hexu~"

"Noelle Shika. Please advise. ”

Listening to everyone introduce themselves in turn, President Dita nodded appreciatively, looking more satisfied with Ellie's colleagues.

"I'm Dita Corois. Ladies and gentlemen, please advise me -- it is a support section that is very active in the "Crossbell Times". Speaking of which, I remember that there is another person, Mr. You is not there? ”

President Dita sighed regretfully. Ellie was curious, her green eyes were full of doubts, Youjun, can you eat so much? Looks like you're familiar with Uncle Dita?

As if seeing Ellie's confusion, President Dita smiled and explained to everyone, "When Yu Tatsumi was still a guerrilla in Liber, he often raised funds at IBC. Generally speaking, I want to meet big customers, but I really don't have a relationship with this Mr. You, and every time he comes to Crossbell, I happen to be absent...... It's a pity. ”

Hearing him say this, Maria Bell also nodded and added: "Indeed, I am basically responsible for Officer You's financing. ”

"That guy, is he rich?"

Noelle looked disgusted. She didn't hate rich people, but when she thought that every Mira she traveled was stained with blood, she felt unhappy in her heart. Moreover, listening to what they say, it seems that You is still engaged in some dangerous financial activities, and I don't know if you want to do anything financially.

He is the type who will do whatever it takes to achieve his ends, and it is not impossible to use finance to suppress the enemy. Although he decided to believe him, it was based on the premise of "not violating the law and not violating justice". This kind of financial crackdown has clearly violated justice.

"Hmm...... Because we want to protect personal information, we can't be too explicit. However, when Officer You was at his peak, the deposit was in the tens of figures. ”

Mariabel throws a bombshell.

"Whew! What is this! A guy who looks like an emperor! Bourgeoisie...... No, the monopoly class! ”

Randy thought that this guy was super popular with women (Noelle revolved around him, Lixia had a good relationship with him, Rui couldn't live without him, and the rest of the support department didn't have a low opinion of him), and he was excellent in kung fu (extremely fast, and his chain technology was at its peak), and he also had profound knowledge (all kinds of strange knowledge) and dared to be rich? Gotta die, this guy!

"Fortunately, in terms of face, I'm still more handsome."

Randy finally balances himself a bit, touching his chin and smiling what he thinks is a dead man.

"That, Randy......" Ellie tapped him on the shoulder with a subtle expression. At least in our opinion...... It is Youjun who is more in line with women's aesthetics. ”

"Well, though I hate him...... However, I agree with Miss Ellie......"

Noelle also made up for it with a sad expression.

“…… Yu・Tatsumi ............ Hehehe......"

It's broken! Randy has been hit too much mentally and has broken down!

Watching everyone's farce, President Dita laughed, and everyone also found out that what they did was inappropriate, and they all lowered their heads and looked embarrassed. Seeing this, President Dita's face became even more smiling.

"So, guys, do you have any work to come to me?"

"Ah...... It's like this......"

Ellie paused for a moment, and quickly stepped forward to explain to him that he had suddenly received a provocation from Silver today, and that he had sent an email from within IBC. President Dita frowned, looking unacceptable. "Honestly, I'm pretty confident in the security measures at the IBC. The people who have access to the main terminal are the ones who have permission to do it, and the terminals have permission to do it......"

"Ah, this...... IMHO, are these people trustworthy? ”

Lloyd boldly questioned, and Ellie secretly pulled the corner of his clothes: How can there be a reason to say this about other people's employees in front of the president!

President Dita shrugged his shoulders unconcernedly and said, "Well, I think they are still trustworthy." However, compared to that...... Don't you think about other possibilities? For example......"

President Dita said, propping his hands on the table, dragging his chin, and asked with interest: "For example, I am Yin, and I am the one who sent you an email." ”

"Huh?"

Everyone was shocked, and Randy asked in disbelief, "Really?!" ”

"Uncle Dita?!"

Noelle also had a complicated expression: "The president actually ......"

Only Maria Belle smiled lightly: "It's kidding again."

"Ahaha, just like that. The legendary killer is actually a person of my status, don't you think it's funny? But in reality, it can't happen after all. ”

Sure enough, then President Dita smiled and dispelled everyone's concerns.

"Yes, yes"

"Don't scare us"

"What a bad joke for the heart."

"What a joker."

However, the faces of the people in the support section didn't look like they had just heard a joke. If it was a joke, listening to what President Dita said, he should be stunned in disbelief, rather than showing a surprised expression on his face.

Well, who made the Support Division have a precedent? Since the killer of NO.1 can be a guerrilla and a policeman, it is not impossible that the legendary assassin is actually the president of IBC, right?

The reaction of the support department made President Dita confused for a while, and the hearty man who liked to joke joked with a smile while touching his head: "Haha, sorry, sorry, just kidding, I didn't expect you to really believe it!" ”

Actually, President Dita is right. If a normal person hears such exciting news, he must be half-convinced, and no one will come up and believe the truth. Lloyd, who did not want to dwell on this issue, immediately turned the subject back: "Although it is a little presumptuous, I feel that the possibility of external invasion is the highest. The legendary assassin infiltrated the IBC, operated the terminal, and left the ...... Something like that. ”

Considering that it was a "legendary" assassin, President Dita could not say anything for sure. After all, they are legendary assassins, and it is understandable that they have one or two magic skills.

However, Tio seemed to suddenly think of something, closed his eyes, and said flatly: "It may also be an external crime." It is not impossible to invade from the outside. Breach the protection with an external terminal and then operate it remotely, so that it can be faked as a record that the IBC sent the email. ”

"Uh...... What is that? ”

Lloyd says that his knowledge of the power network is still far behind. Instead, Randy summed it up very briefly: "That is, you can send emails from IBC from somewhere else, right?" ”

"Although Randy's senior is right, I always feel subtle unhappiness."

Theo glanced at him coldly, this summary seemed to be right, and it was actually right, but it made Theo, a professional, feel uncomfortable.

"Well, hacking? It's not impossible. ”

President Dita nodded thoughtfully and accepted Theo's statement. After all, it is now the time when the Guiding Network has just started, and the network protection is not perfect, and it is not impossible for a highly skilled hacker to hack into the system here.

"Hehe, father, since there is a possibility that our side has been invaded, shouldn't we investigate?"

The speaker was Mariabel, and she was casually flicking her blonde curls, looking scrappy.

If I can help Ellie, then Ellie's opinion will increase dramatically, and at the same time, I will realize how incompetent the guys around me are, and finally Ellie, who is disappointed in the police, will throw herself into my arms. Well, this plan...... It works!

"Well, then, let's do it. Bell, take everyone from the Support Section to the terminal room. I still have some work for a while, and it just so happens that young people are more in touch with each other. ”

――――――――――――――――――

At the same time, just as Lloyd and the others were taking the guide ladder to the fifth basement level where the terminal room was located......

IBC Bank Lobby.

Director Roberts, who has the typical feel of a researcher, is meeting with a distinguished guest.

"That, Ti, Ti Ou-kun, and Hexu-chan are all right?"

"Uh...... What is this kind of tone as if I had kidnapped them......"

"Have you eaten well? If you want to sleep well for 10 hours, you can't skip eating green peppers! Balanced nutrition is important. Woo, Dio-kun ......"

For some reason, Director Roberts suddenly felt sorry for himself, muttering trivial things.

Yu Tatsumi sighed, no wonder Tio was so disgusted with him, if Mr. Crutz was also chattering like this, I am afraid that he would have run away from home a long time ago.

"That, Director Roberts?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, Youjun, I accidentally started chattering."

You still know that you are very chatty!! You was about to roar out in my heart.

"Well, who called me out today?"

"Well, that's right, I'm ...... about the beta version of Ainigema II that I'm testing right now."

"Ahhh......h That'......"

I don't know why I mentioned this beta version, Director Roberts seemed to be a teenager old all of a sudden, his face was pale, and he muttered sentences like "It's over, not only Theo but even Hexu is going to hate me...... now".

"That's, that'......"

"Please, I don't want to be hated by Hexu!" Suddenly, Director Roberts clasped You's shoulders with both hands, and his eyes were round, as if he had come from somewhere.

As a result, the surrounding people were sideways, and the sound of speculation was endless. You didn't know what emotions to use to talk to him anymore.

"Well, what the hell is going on?"

"The project...... The project of Enigma II was completely rejected...... What Hexu worked so hard to make was completely denied......"

Director Roberts said with a look on his face that was about to burst into tears. Being held down by a middle-aged man who is nearly forty years old crying like this, You has some inexplicable guilt in his heart.

"I can guess. It's because of the versatility. ”

“！！ Can you understand! Oh, yes! Because the compatibility between the system of Arcus [another version of the 5th generation tactical director] and the system of Anigema is too low. Therefore, the consortium has decided to continue to use the Enigma system, but only transplant the core loop system...... Hexu-chan's efforts...... Woohoo......"

"Well, please mourn. Personally, I'm still very optimistic about the performance of this beta version. Although the magic is not comprehensive, I enjoy this tactical leader job. Today is also about this feature......"

"Do you like it! Then it's okay to give this one to you! It can also be modified according to your personal habits, please, please don't refuse Hexu! ”

“…… Can we have a good exchange......"

On this day, Yuu Tatsumi finally understood the feelings of those enemies who were provoked by his words. Not only did he silently shed tears.
