Chapter 138: Augustgrad's Tombstone (Part II)

"I'm sorry, Serena, I'm late."

Rockwell sat down apologetically.

Serena smiled and waved her hand: "I can understand, after all, now is an important moment for the insect invasion, and the time for the Emperor Mengsk to give a speech will naturally be longer, and your work will naturally be busy." ”

In the evening of this Keha, the two young and successful ladies did not think about the troubles of work for the time being, but stayed quietly in this quiet café, chatting happily about each other's interesting things, as a wise man once said, women will always have endless topics to talk about.

"Kate, you haven't had any further development with His Royal Highness since that dinner with His Royal Highness? Like, dating or something? ”

"Serena, what are you talking about?" Rockwell glanced at Serena angrily and amusedly: "After all, His Royal Highness the Prince is the crown prince, and he is very busy every day, how can he find time to go on a date with me?" Besides, now is an extraordinary period, the Zerg are invading, the situation in all walks of life in the country is not very stable, and His Royal Highness the Prince is naturally running around to solve problems for the people, where can he take care of his own affairs at this time. ”

Serena was angry and feigned: "Look at you, if you don't think about the other half of your life, then you will really become an old girl, you must know that the old girl is not wanted, why don't you hurry up and take advantage of the current prosperity to capture the heart of our prince?" Could it be that our Royal Highness the Prince does not conform to your aesthetics? ”

"Who...... Says who? ”

Rockwell blushed: "His Royal Highness the Prince is tall and handsome, and judging from his performance on weekdays and on the podium, he is a man to rely on. ”

"It's not that you haven't moved since you had dinner with His Royal Highness the Prince, as your good best friend, I'm naturally anxious in my eyes. You must know that after all, His Royal Highness the Prince's identity is there, and there are many people who want to hug His Royal Highness the Prince's thigh. At that press conference, I also saw clearly that you and His Royal Highness the Prince are indeed a good match, and the way he looks at you is also very meaningful. You have to hurry up, otherwise His Royal Highness the Prince will be seduced by a bewitching slut and seduction, and it won't be worth it. ”

"You guy, say what you don't have!"

While Rockwell and Serena were laughing, Nova came over from the other side, and she generously sat down on an empty seat in the private seat of Rockwell and Serena: "Ladies, I seem to have heard you talk about it just now, Your Highness the Prince?" ”

Rockwell and Serena looked at this mysterious uninvited woman in surprise, and Rockwell was displeased: "We were indeed talking about His Royal Highness the Prince just now, but this is our freedom, and you don't seem to have the right to interfere, right?" Moreover, you sit in the private seat of the two of us without authorization, and you look like a tutored lady with a temperament, but your behavior makes me not look elegant at all! ”

Nova smiled faintly, and was not angry: "It's true that I sat down like this, it's indeed a little abrupt, but I have a question that I need the two of you to help me think." After all, one of you is Kate Rockwell, a very famous UNN reporter, and the other is Serena Lahr, a famous courtesan of the Imperial Government. I think this simple question, as the two of you are big people in society, it should not be difficult to answer, right? ”

Serena smiled professionally again: "Oh? So, I don't know what questions this young lady wants to ask us? ”

"I'm curious, in this time of internal and external difficulties, why are there rats hiding inside our capital? Although they are all human beings, they are destroying and spying on our country and society for the invasion of alien insects. Alas, as a citizen of the Empire, I am deeply saddened. ”

Serena looked at Nova unhurriedly, and her confident smile infected the others like a spring breeze: "Could it be that as a citizen of the Empire, have you discovered something?" ”

"Tombstone."

Nova elegantly stretched out her hand and tapped it lightly on the table: "A disgusting underground organization full of rotten smell, leaking all the secrets of the empire, for the insect masters and those earthlings behind them, like a group of dying people, with blood-dripping tombstones on their bodies, aren't they?" ”

Rockwell was confused: "Tombstone? Could it be that this is an espionage organization lurking within the Empire? So what about that...... Are you a ghost agent of the Secret Service? ”

Serena was still the same calm and breezy look: "Oh? Is there really such an organization? But I see that the current Augustgrad, with all the lights dim, really exists as the organization you claimed? Why doesn't even our big reporter, Miss Rockwell, know? ”

Nova quietly mobilized her psionic energy: "Oh? Do you know nothing about this organization called Tombstone? ”

Rockwell glanced at Nova with disgust: "I don't know anything, you secret service people are a bunch of boring psychos!" The last time you wantonly searched our film crew, causing our news coverage to be temporarily suspended, I haven't complained to your superiors yet, I hope this time you don't arbitrarily use your identity as a secret service to lynch a law-abiding citizen of the empire or use violence without legal procedures! ”

Serena took a calm sip of her coffee, "Miss Rockwell and I are both uninformed, besides, Ms. Spy, if you think we're going to have anything to do with those spies, why are you still chatting with us here?" Wouldn't it be okay to just arrest us and interrogate us by the secret service? ”

Rockwell nodded hurriedly: "Yes!" You secret service people, you don't have any credentials to arrest people! It's all about catching if you want to. The security department of the empire, if it is all your wanton attitude to work, then the empire does not need the invasion of foreign enemies in the first place, and just fighting in your own nest is enough to make the empire chaotic! ”

Nova was covered with frost, the psychic temptation just now did not get any useful information from the minds of Rockwell and Serena, the two of them really did not seem to have any connection with the tombstone, and this temptation not only did not obtain evidence of the secret service's collusion with the two tough women and the tombstone, but was ridiculed by big reporters and high-level government courtesans for a while, which made Nova's face very unbearable.

"In this case, I believe that the two of them are also law-abiding citizens of the empire, if there is anything that dissatisfies the two of us in the secret service before, please forgive me, after all, our secret service is also under great pressure in the current situation, the internal security of the empire needs us to deal with, and those spies lurking in the empire also need us to find them out one by one. Excuse me, two. ”

With that, Nova stood up and walked briskly out of the café.

Rockwell still had a look of indignation: "Really, the good mood that I was just getting up was lost by the female spy of the secret service, Serena, let me tell you, none of those people in the secret service are good, all of them are arbitrary bureaucrats and psychosis." When we were going to do a news interview for a speech by the Emperor Mengsk, those ghost agents from the Secret Service came to our film crew to make a big fuss, not only destroying a bunch of our machines, but also arresting several of our staff, and then releasing them afterwards, saying that they had arrested the wrong person! What's going on? ”

Seeing Rockwell's angry face, Serena hurriedly comforted: "Okay, okay, those spies are like that, they look like they go to the sky when they have power, it's all the norm, but at this stage, they are in trouble at home and abroad, and they have some reasons for this, and they are properly understood." ”

"Hey, Serena, I'll tell you, I heard the news from all over the station, those so-called rebels, what Renault's rangers, and the UED fleet from the earth, in fact, are not as bad as described in our news at all, when they invaded the Zerg, they also actively participated in the rescue of the people of the empire, I can't figure it out, why is the news from the two sides of the station and the UNN headquarters so different?"

Serena was startled, and hurriedly signaled to Rockwell to silence: "You be quiet, those spies haven't left yet, do you want them to arrest you as a suspicious element?" ”

"I'm telling the truth."

"Hey." Serena sighed helplessly: "Maybe you can apply to UNN headquarters for an opportunity to go to the periphery for interviews and actually see the situation in those places." I happened to hear from someone in the Ministry of the Interior that His Royal Highness Prince Valerian seems to be visiting refugees recently, and you may be able to go with His Royal Highness the Prince to interview him. ”

"Makes sense."

Serena took out her mobile phone: "I'm going to order food, and it's time for dinner, so let's just eat here and pick up the interest that was just disturbed by those spies!" ”

Arriving at the bar, Serena used her mobile phone to pay for two special meals and returned to her seat to continue chatting with Rockwell and waiting for the meal, while the boss glanced at a payment message and customer request on the computer screen in front of him, and quietly transferred the order to the backstage kitchen.

The customer's request was a seemingly ordinary food and beverage request, but the boss had identified Serena's information through a unique intelligence analysis code.

"Investigated, low-key, hidden."

Outside the café, Nova got into a black car, and inside the car, a spy who was also dressed in civilian clothes turned his head and asked Nova, "How is it?" Did you find out anything? From the mouth of the big journalist and courtesan. ”

"No, the two of them didn't seem to know anything about it, and I used the mind reading to use the least likely situation for them to find out, and found nothing. Stone, how's it going over there? ”

Stone shook his head: "The investigation of the tombstone is progressing very slowly, although some suspicious elements have been caught, but they are all peripheral eyeliners of some tombstones, and they don't know the internal situation of the tombstone at all, so it is worthless." ”

Nova looked boredly at the passing scenery outside the car, the night sky of Augustgrad was full of stars, and the seemingly calm water surface was surging underneath.
