The flowers are still alive late at night, just as the city is so vibrant that it never rests. Everywhere you can see young people waiting for supper, the smell of pork red soup and radish and beef offal diffuse in the air, and the lights shine through the night. The buzz of nodding on the street seems to have never stopped.

What was once a secluded property is now booming with investment, and the city is becoming less and less dead-end, just as its subway lines are getting more and more expansive.

Of course, there are still many places where the light does not shine, just as there are no street lights along some bus routes, and some places are destined to be silent in the dark.

A community on the eastern outskirts of the city is quiet at this time, and those noisy small shops during the day have turned into simple and simple early to bed and early to get up. Occasionally, the rooms on a few floors were still lit, showing their out-of-place routines.

In the dark, a tall and slender figure carried a small schoolbag and silently returned to Unit 3 of Building 11 of the community, and used the building key to open the iron fence door.

The voice-activated light was awakened, and the light shone on the figure, her long hair dyed slightly golden in the light.

Opening the door of her room, a girl in sportswear walked into an empty room. Walk through the living room with only one old-fashioned water dispenser and stop in the bedroom with only one mattress.

Putting her backpack down, the girl pulled out a laptop from inside.

There is no logo on the laptop, and I can't see the brand. The keyboard position is slightly different from that of ordinary computers, and if you carefully identify them, it is not difficult to find that those keyboard characters are all metal hollow type, and this process is almost invisible on ordinary civilian notebooks.

Turn on your computer, connect to a satellite phone, and connect to the Internet. The girl put on a Bluetooth headset for herself and smiled at the LCD screen that emitted a light blue light.

If you talk about the most insecure communication method in the world, network call will definitely be among the best, and when it comes to the most secure line, network call has become one of the most secure ways because of the encryption characteristics of communication protocols and software.

In such a country, choosing to call this way is obviously not a choice.

It didn't take long for the other party to respond, and what appeared on the laptop screen was a sound waveform, without an avatar and ID, apparently a single-channel point-to-point communication.

"I've arrived."

The voice over there was a hoarse male voice, sounding very young.

"Are you sure it's safe around?"

"I don't know what to do." The blonde maiden replied in the dark, "In my experience, it's safe for the time being." ”

"Your experience ......," he said with a wry smile and a low voice, "doesn't your experience tell you that if you make such a decision, you will be considered to have obtained the information?" ”

The other party meant to blame, but the girl didn't care, but said with a smile: "My experience tells me that only in this way will it not be completely cleaned up as garbage." ”

"So you want to be the one who always has a hole card to lift?" The hoarse young male voice asked, "Now the old guys up there are debating whether to use more violent methods. ”

"It's useless." The girl pursed her lips, she found that she had really learned badly some time ago, and actually started to do this kind of little girl's actions, "For her, those threats are actually ridiculous." You don't know her hole cards, and no one dares to act rashly. ”

"It is not human laziness that drives the progress of this world, it is profit." "As long as the benefits are sufficient, it is not so difficult to decide for them to blow up the Antarctic glaciers." ”

The girl didn't argue with the hoarse voice, she thought for a moment and asked, "So the old guys still think that I got the information and wanted to hide it myself?" ”

"What do you think they are doing suddenly and want to re-investigate you?"

“…………”

The girl was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said, "What is the most important thing to you?" ”

The voice over there replied without hesitation, "It's you, Neel." ”

Neil smiled, "But I've rejected you, Anthony. ”

"That doesn't change how important you are to me." Anthony's voice became slightly agitated, "You are my choice, and I am not your choice, there is no direct connection between the two. ”

"You're such a horrible science student." Neil sighed, "I can't really give you any promises, although I appreciate everything you've done to me. ”

"To be able to get your gratitude, even if it's just verbal, is the best reward for me." Anthony's answer could be devastating to any girl, but it didn't work for Neil, "What about you?" The best part? ”

Neil was silent for a few more moments before replying, "Freedom." ”

"There is no absolute freedom in this world."

"At least you can satisfy your inner freedom." Neil looked back at the empty room and said, "I hope that one day, I can live a quiet and free life." ”

"Then you're going to get through at least this once." Anthony reminded, "The above is too serious about this matter, and you can't solve it alone." ”

Neel smiled, even though Anthony in front of the computer on the other side couldn't see her, her smile still existed in a corner of this world, so moving.

"Maybe, but isn't it also a kind of freedom to choose to resist?"

Anthony disagrees with Neil and doesn't refute it: "After the investigation resumed, they sorted out all the details and found a lot of evidence that you had obtained the information you needed. ”

"And then you want to use that evidence to make me say something that I don't even know about myself?" "I'm so ashamed to work under these people. ”

"Those people aren't thinking with their brains anymore." "What they think about is their office location," Anthony said. ”

"So even if I was investigated, interrogated, and died without results, it would be just a small mistake for them to lose a commercial espionage?"

"I'd say no, but that's exactly what happened."

Neil smiled self-deprecatingly, and suddenly asked, "Is it okay for us to waste satellite communication fees like this?" I'm a poor man now. ”

"After that, I'll delete all relevant records, including access records, so you don't have to worry." "For now, I'd suggest you stay there, because there's no other country in the world that has a stricter censorship and security system than there, and it's hard for their forces to work there." ”

Neil shrugged, feeling that her actions must have been influenced by the teenager.

"Well, the food here is also very good."

Anthony almost laughed out loud: "Are you still in the mood to find good food?" ”

"Don't you just like my optimism?" Neil has always been natural and generous when it comes to this, "Beauty is never scarce for you. ”

Anthony has to admit that Neil's personality is an important reason why she is widely loved by many people. As for physiognomy - basically anyone who has spent time in major international institutions knows that beauty is simply a floating cloud to them.

"What are you going to do next?" Anthony asked, "I can cooperate with you." ”

"Hide for a while." Neil said, "Anyway, they think I have what they want, and I just escaped, and they don't want to kill me right away, do they?" ”

"If it's for a stop loss, it's hard to say."

"Come on, then." Neil reached out and tied her long white-blond hair into a beautiful ponytail, biting the headband and saying, "It's not a bad thing to die like this." ”

Anthony can feel the deep despair hidden behind Neil's optimism, and it is this mixture of optimism and despair that makes Neal more attractive. Anthony has to admit that Neil looks strong and confident at some point, and people can't help but want to hug and pity her.

At this point in the conversation, Neil cut off the internet link and began to clean up his usage and login history.

And at this moment, on the other side of the world, in a country with a seven-hour time difference from the Celestial Empire, the clouds on the horizon are tearing at each other with the sun in the afternoon, and in the old, clean library, a young blonde man with black-rimmed glasses has just turned off his computer.

Around the blonde young man are at least a dozen LCD screens, ranging horizontally and vertically, as well as boxy old-fashioned screens.

On the large special computer desk, there are three keyboards of different shapes, each of which has heavy wear marks, which can be seen to be used frequently.

Pushing the computer desk with both hands, the blonde young man's wheeled chair quickly stepped back a distance, away from the screen and keyboard, and away from the ambivalence that had been struggling to extricate himself.

Not far behind the young man was a shabby old-fashioned sofa, on which a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard sat with his hands crossed and watched the young man silent.

The young man could feel the pressure in the man's eyes, and that terrifying and violent feeling was a nightmare that he would never forget in his life. It was in this workshop that the middle-aged man killed two renegade agents who tried to attack him with his fists.

The blonde young man didn't want to remember the bloody scene, and every time he saw this middle-aged man, he had to be forced to think of that scene.

There was a brief silence, and no one spoke.

In the end, it was the middle-aged man who spoke first: "So Neil didn't tell you about her follow-up plan?" ”

"Nope." The blonde young man was Anthony, "I think she might have sensed something." ”

"No, it won't." The middle-aged man is very confident, "She really notices something, and she won't take the initiative to contact you." ”

"Maybe it's just a one-time address." Anthony analyzed, "I had given Neil a lot of correct information before this, but that wasn't enough, she didn't trust everyone now. ”

The middle-aged man with a scruffy beard has eye-catching white hair, which makes his whole person look even more gloomy.

"You persuaded her to stay in China, and she agreed?"

"Yes, she agrees with me." Anthony confessed, "She doesn't really know the truth, and it's easy for us to buy some relationships in China." ”

The middle-aged man nodded: "You continue to keep in touch with Neil, and we have to think about the follow-up plan now." ”

Anthony was full of excitement, he knew what the follow-up plan was in the middle-aged population, and he felt that it seemed inappropriate to do so.

But in any case, Anthony did not dare to oppose the decision of this middle-aged man. It was he who put Neil by Su Yifan's side at the beginning, and now he also thinks that Neil has secretly hidden the information he has obtained, and wants to get a lot of benefits at one time to get out of the company.

"Anyway, let's try." The middle-aged man raised his head, his eyes shooting a feverish light, "In order to restore the glory of the past." ”

In the face of his boss, who is often so emotional, Anthony can only weakly echo on the sidelines.
