Tel is a little unwell today, but nowhere near the point of calling in sick. During the day he avoided the menacing visits of Schubelez, and in the afternoon he did not go out in the study, and even lunch and dinner were brought in by the servants, until 10 o'clock in the evening.

Ter, who was at his desk, took one last look at a few pieces of paper full of words, got up and changed his clothes, and called the servant to drive him to the institute.

He sat in the back row, holding the papers in his hands, his lips opening and closing, and he silently read a few words. When we met later, the other party asked and I had to answer perfectly. Thinking like this, sweat oozed from his palms, and he quickly wiped it on his handkerchief.

The Fourth Institute is divided into five districts: east, west, north, south, and center, and Tel's car enters through the main entrance on the east side and drives into the east area. This is the façade of the institute, and its Building 1 serves as a reference room and welcomes visitors. As soon as the car stopped in front of the building, Ter hurriedly got out of the car and entered the building.

Standing in the hall, Ter saw at a glance the man looking for him, with two tall bodyguards, talking to a researcher next to him. Ter, realizing that the researcher was Bandrew Thatch Minar, frowned, and did not step forward. He waited for Minar to leave before he walked over to the man.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

The man in front of him, more than 1.7 meters tall, slender figure, wearing a clean gray shirt, a pair of square glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a pair of half-open eyes behind him, revealing a gaze without any emotion. As he ended the conversation, he turned to Terr and beckoned him to come over. Ter didn't dare to slack off, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps.

Just a pair of eyes, Ter shivered, and the back of his head was cold. He was familiar with the man's eccentric personality, and he didn't even dare to say the other person's name without permission.

"Director Terl Pavlov, huh?"

The man's voice was low but not hoarse, sharp and suppressed, and the speed of his speech seemed to be deliberately slowed, without any human warmth, only mechanical coldness.

"Exactly, Mr. Noro."

"You're 3 minutes and 15 seconds late, tell me why."

"Before I went out, I made a slight revision of the proposal with reference to the information you provided, which delayed the time."

Ter said what he had thought in the car, followed by Nuro's questioning. He knew that if he hesitated to answer, he would be exposed. Fortunately, Nuroroi nodded his head to accept the reason

"Let me see."

"Here."

Taking the paper from Terr, Nuro pushed his glasses and scanned the first page.

"Where you said you were going to change, um, is that here?" He nodded on the paper, "Try to save the subject's life." Speaking of which, you've made this request before, 7 times in the past 3 months, right? ”

"Yes."

"If the first step fails...... Well," Nuro flipped to the second page and found a place, "just do that, huh?" ”

"That's right, so we don't have anything to lose."

On the second page, Nuro read more slowly, but it was only half a minute's work. He folded the paper a few times and put it in the pocket of his shirt.

"Yes, Director Pavlov, I accepted your request."

It was the answer that Ter was expecting, but he didn't rejoice too soon.

"May I ask why you want this girl to live?" Nuro asked.

"Because, I'm still interested in her."

"Well, as long as you can achieve the desired goal, you can do whatever you want with this observation object named Tarini."

"I understand, please rest assured."

Nuro nodded and walked past Terr. Before heading out, he added.

"Director Pavlov, in this operation, please relax your mind and feel free."

Ter didn't dare to look back, a few drops of sweat oozing from his forehead, and he didn't let out a sigh of relief until the sound of Nuro's car disappeared from his ears.

Everything that had to be done was done, he thought. The rest is left to fate.

*****

At dawn the next day, Tarini barely got out of bed at the urging of her mother. According to her itinerary, she is going to a primary school on the outskirts of the city today to give a speech to the students there. Actually, this was originally the work of another doctor, but when Tarina heard about it, she insisted on asking for it.

After breakfast, Kane had just parked the car in front of Tarini's house when the girl sped out, said goodbye to her parents, and got into the car. Kane glanced at Tarini, it was okay, she was wearing an ordinary white dress, and there was no exaggerated pattern.

"It's okay."

"Hehe, I don't want the students to see the joke either."

"It's funny to have a teenage girl give a lecture."

"Who's the little girl? People are adults now. Let's go, don't be late. ”

Kane replied "yes yes" as he started the car.

Located on the outskirts of Mondogama, the school was built in April last year with the help of some caring people. The people who study here are children from poor families. Because of its public welfare nature, the school is also known as "Hope Primary School".

Schools that rely on funding will have many inconveniences in their operation, and the number of teachers will be limited. Therefore, long before the school was built, the Fourth Research Institute agreed with the school to regularly send some professor-level people to substitute for the students, or give lectures, so as to enrich the students' knowledge and so on. Many people say that this is a "face project" used by the institute to put gold on their faces, but Tarini doesn't care at all - she is willing to do it if she can help those children, even if it is face work.

Because of the "ritual" last night, Taleni was ready to rest until midnight. In addition, this was her first time giving a speech to the students, and she was overly excited and had some insomnia.

The presentation lasts an hour. She plans to spend 40 minutes talking about some science that the children are interested in, and the rest of the time is free for them to ask questions, which she is confident will be able to answer fluently. Not only in EXP science, but also in other fields such as astronomy and geography, she has also studied a lot.

Tarini, who was still a little sleepy, got up as soon as she set off and looked at the surrounding scenery. Soon there were no buildings around, replaced by lush woods, meadows, and land that had been sown. With the colors of May in front of her, she opened the window and breathed in the fresh smell of the earth, feeling the comfort of the wind.

"The windows are still rolled up, right? Beware of assassins. ”

"It's fine."

Tarini replied casually. Kane said the same thing as Schubelez, there were assassins, but after many years, she had never seen them. Every time she saw the nervous bodyguards around her, she felt ridiculous. Fortunately, in recent months, these bodyguards have all disappeared, and only Kane himself remains, which is just right.

The car drove into the forest reserve, and the scenery on the left side of the road was replaced by rolling trees, and out of here, a small valley in front of you was to the school. From time to time, Kane glanced in the direction of the woods, wary of what was in front of him. Since taking over the job of a bodyguard, he has not taken it lightly.

At the bottom of the valley, on a small dirt slope, stood three men, one of whom was in his forties* in the front, and he was the captain of the two behind, named Klein Roja, with a palm-sized display in his hand, staring intently at the map above and a flickering point of light.

"The target is close, the demolition team and the assault team, all ready!" Seeing the point of light approaching, Klein picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke.

"Demolition team, Roger."

"Raid group, Roger."

"Captain, it's just confirmed." One of the subordinates behind him said, "There is only one driver in the car, and that is Kane Ireda. ”

"What about the others?"

"No, not nearby."

Kane Ireda, Klein whispered the name, can't be wrong, it's the boy who killed the god of war Ares in Larvega four years ago and became the legendary boy of the Death Arena. When he received the assignment, Klein had planned to start the action in a week. But after discovering Kane, he planned more than half a month in advance.

This kid's combat effectiveness is undoubted, but if he only has his own words, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with.

"Captain, the car seems to have stopped."

Another subordinate reminded. Klein looked down, and sure enough, the point of light stopped, and the map didn't move.

"Outflanking team, did you hear that?"

"Hear me, Captain."

"You guys check the situation right away, and we'll rush over. If a target is found, engagement is allowed. Kill the bodyguards, and capture the target alive as much as possible. Remember, don't underestimate your enemies. ”

"Understood!"

The car did stop on the side of the road, not because Kane knew there were bombs planted on both sides of the road in the valley, but because of Tarini, who wanted to get rid of it.

"Really, are you a child? When you come out, you don't make a profit. ”

Tarini's face was flushed, and she was still looking for some excuses: "Because, I have to come out in a hurry." ”

"Too excited?"

"Nope!"

Kane unlocked the car door and gestured to the woods next to him.

"Okay, hurry up if you want to go."

Tarini hurriedly got out of the car and walked towards the woods. Suddenly, I heard the sound of the car door closing and locking behind me. Looking back, Kane followed with a knife.

"Wait...... I said, how did you keep up!? ”

"Huh? I'm a bodyguard, doesn't that take it for granted? ”

"How can there be a bodyguard who follows the girl to the toilet!" Tarini ran up to Kane, staring into his eyes and shouting.

"Don't worry, I won't be watching."

"That's not the problem!!"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, it's dangerous to be exposed like this."

Urged by Kane, Tarini didn't dare to delay, but the awkwardness in her heart still couldn't be resolved, biting her lip and hesitating for a while. Think Kane is a man of integrity and won't ...... Someone who does that kind of thing, well, definitely not.

She walked into the woods, looking around as she went, trying to find a suitable place. Kane followed, and he felt that Tarina had gone a little too far.

"I've almost found a place."

"That's not going to work."

Tarini continued to walk until she couldn't see the road, then she stopped and crouched under a tree where weeds could cover herself. Kane is two meters away from Tarini, where only her head can be seen, allowing for surveillance without causing trouble.

While staring at Tarini, Kane focused more on his surroundings. He adjusted his breathing to a very slow, even frequency, motionless, like a human radar, sensing the abnormal breath around him.

However, this action embarrassed Tarini immensely. The first time I was in the wilderness, there was still a man staring, well, although he couldn't see anything, but it was embarrassing. Seeing Kane staring at her, Tarini blushed and buried her head.

"Be careful!!"

Suddenly Kane shouted, followed by a gunshot, and Tarini, who had just finished untying her hand, almost sat down in fright, and then saw Kane step over the barrier of grass and grab her hand.

"Yikes! Pervert ——!!! ”

Before the panties could be lifted, Tarini screamed. Kane sensed it, and four, possibly five, people were surrounding him. He grabbed Tarini and tried to run, but she fell. But Kane didn't realize that it was the panties that caused the trouble, thinking that it was Tarini's leg squatting numb, so he chose the most reasonable way to deal with it - his right arm supported Tarini's back, and his left arm raised his knee, a standard princess hug.

"Hold on!"

Picking up Tarine's legs, Kanesa ran in the direction of the car, and the footsteps behind him rang out quickly, interspersed with a few pistol shots. Tarini also knew that it was important to escape, but a more fatal problem in front of her made her even think about life and death. She was more worried about whether she was being seen than how to escape, but her body was hugged by Kane - why him!

"Let it go! Kane let it go! ”

Tarini reached for her panties that were lying across her legs, but was scolded by Kane.

"Don't move! It's going to fall! ”

"I don't care! It's a shame!! ”

"It's better than losing your life!!"

Kane, who was rushing out of the woods, heard an explosion, and he saw that the car was on fire. Damn, there are also enemies in the direction of the highway, and they also blew up cars, trying to surround them. Kane made a quick decision, turned around and ran deeper into the woods. The number of enemies is unknown, the purpose is unknown, and since this is the case, the woods are his best reliance.

He almost flew up, kicking the trunk of the tree with his foot from time to time to speed up, and his physical strength allowed him to pull away easily, even though he was still holding a grumbling girl.

"Oops!! It's so cool down there!! ”

"What are you talking about at this time!?"

"Kane is a big idiot!!"

After a while, the attackers saw that they were about to lose and quickly notified Klein.

"Captain, that kid is too fast, we're going to lose it!"

"It's useless!" Klein scolded, "Preparatory group, surround it!" They don't dare to come out of the woods, hold them back, and we'll be there at once! ”

After running for a while, Kane noticed that the attacker behind him was gone, so he stood up and put Tarini down.

At this moment, Tarine's face burned badly, and her brain was confused. After landing on the ground, she stayed for a while, and then suddenly she lifted her underwear, and the road just now made her experience something that she never wanted to experience in her life, and tears flowed down.

The girl turned to look at Kane, who was still looking in the direction the attackers were chasing.

"Kai, Kai, Kane, just ...... Are you supposed to ...... See...... See......? ”

"Huh? Of course I saw it, otherwise why would I run. ”

One sentence completely destroyed Tarini, but Kane explained it right away.

"These people are not easy to deal with, but fortunately I found out in advance."

"You're talking about the guys with guns?"

"Or what do you think I'm talking about?"

"No, no, nothing!"

Tarini is thinking nonsense, Kane is thinking about what to do. With the cover of the woods, dealing with these people is not a problem, the only thing to do is to protect Taleni. He quickly had an idea, and pulled out the walkie-talkie and slipped it into Tarina's hand.

"Use this to send an emergency signal to Captain Schuberates in a moment, and do this."

He said and maneuvered, and Tarini barely remembered.

"So, what's next?"

"That's it."

Without warning, Kane put his arms around Tarina's waist and lifted her gently to her shoulders.

"Yikes! I'm scared to death, what are you doing? ”

Ignoring Tarini's question, Kane held a knife in his left hand, his arm tied to Tarini like a rope, and his right hand and feet cooperated, climbing a tree with a thick trunk, and it was not a problem to help with one less hand. He climbed into the bushes and held Tarini firmly on a branch that looked safe. Tarini immediately clung to the trunk.

"Stay still, don't make a sound, remember to signal."

"If we send it out, will we be saved?"

"Don't worry, this is a special distress signal for you, as long as it is sent out, Captain Schuberuz will definitely come. Until then, I'll hold off the enemy. ”

Kane, who had left these words, jumped from the tree. As soon as he landed, the footsteps were near, and the breath reappeared. But Tarini was safe, and he could concentrate on the enemy in front of him.

"Come here."
