Chapter 86: Judas
During his more than 50 years at the helm of the Ark, Su Zhi was a well-deserved dictator, a title that was even recognized by him himself. In the second year after the introduction of the principle of scientific co-construction, that is, in the year of IC4, Su Zhi set up the Academic Gendarmerie Force, a special force composed of computer experts, critics from all walks of life, science fiction writers, journalists and detectives, with an average age of more than 50 years old, who traveled all over the world, with Su Zhi's personal authority to carry out the right, excavated one research topic after another with complete experimental results, submitted it to the Ark for review, and most of them eventually became patent publications. At that time, this old and weak army was known by another person: Gaidao Taibao.
- "The Biography of Su Zhi", IC89, Fei Jie. stan
Although he insisted, Su Zhi finally accepted Lin Ke's arrangement and secretly left Su's house. Eden is no better than Dunhuang, sinister everywhere, here they are alone. Although Lin Ke is strong, the mysterious person who robbed the prisoner is also a third-order, and it is difficult to say which one is stronger or weaker, Su Zhi stayed in the Su Mansion, which could only hinder Lin Ke's play.
The old man's new residence is located on the periphery of Eden, adjacent to a small nameless lake, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the key is that it is less than 30 kilometers away from the island boundary of Eden, surrounded by forests, and in case of danger, you can avoid the sand sea at any time.
Lin Ke's arrangements were very detailed, first issuing a notice that Su Zhi would come to Ulaanbaatar to inspect the living environment of Dunhuang residents, and then the Aurora departed from Lin Ke's personal escort. Su Zhi himself and two people dressed as him evacuated in the crowd of people who saw him off, and the two sets of smoke screens would be avoided in two secret residences in the urban area, while Su Zhi himself, after leaving the urban area, was personally carried by Lin Ke to fly 50 kilometers and send directly to the villa.
Su Zhi disappeared like this.
On January 8, IC64, 4 days after Su Zhi disappeared.
Next to the Tower of Babel, the Judge's Mansion, or the study.
The referee curled up behind the wide desk, dodging the eyes of the portrait of Su Zhi, who was less than 70 years old, but looked older than Su Zhi.
The faithful butler knocked at the door and entered, ignoring his master's embarrassment, and went up to the chief magistrate and whispered: "Sir, Monsieur Fanol is here." ”
The referee's eyes finally brightened a little, and he tried to sit upright, wanting to show his majesty: "Let him in." ”
The butler left, and a moment later, Fanol walked in with mechanical precision, stood still, and saluted.
"Fanor, when did you join Su Zhi." The referee stared at Fanol suspiciously, like a poisonous snake, spitting snake letters.
"Don't worry, I'm not Su Zhi's person." Fanor stood there, staring at each other, not dodging or evading.
"The raid on the Knights' camp a few days ago, you let Grimace go!" The referee burst into flames, swept his arm, and debris flew and smashed towards Fanor. It's a pity that Fanor is too far away to threaten.
"Su Zhi and Lin Ke don't know grimaces." Fanol seemed to be talking about common sense.
"But Ilnophil knows!" The referee roared loudly, Ilnophil is Maddie's last name, Madelan. Ilnophil.
"Yes, he knows, but Lin Ke and Su Zhi don't, isn't it just right?" Fanol laughed in front of the referee for a rare time.
"He's Su Zhi's man!" The referee, Che Si, roared inwardly, "This will be the reason for Su Zhi, he can justifiably force us to death!" It's like forcing the fourth child to death! ”
"Kim. Buck attacked the academic gendarmes and then attacked Lin Ke with all his might, and his death was self-inflicted. The corners of Fanol's mouth curled, as if he was smiling, "And Maddie is a member of the Knights, not a member of Su Zhi." ”
"Maddie?"
"yes, Maddie." Fanol walked over to the couch and sat down, "Don't you think it's strange? Maddie is different from Lin Ke, he has been stationed in Eden for a long time to manage the troops, and he has long known about me and Ghost Face, why doesn't Lin Ke know at all? ”
"You mean?" The referee became excited, he never thought that there were gaps in Su Zhi's team.
"Ten years of oppression, Mo Ju's death, the current Knights of the Holy Light is no longer the Knights of the Holy Light of the past."
This was the first time since the Istanbul case that the chief magistrate saw hope, and he walked over quickly, and even got mixed with debris, and crawled: "You can say that you can move Ilnofil to surrender!" As soon as he finished speaking, his shoulders fell again, "So what, Su Zhi has already hidden, it was not him who went to Ulaanbaatar, and the two who hid were not him." ”
"That's why, I waited until today to see you." Fanol straightened his uniform, "Calculate the time, he should also arrive." ”
Fanol's words were finished, and the butler walked in again, and whispered something in the chief referee's ear.
"Medellan. Ilnophil is coming? The referee was stunned and subconsciously looked at Fanol.
"I didn't call him, it's just that it's easier to know about him." Fanor said lightly, "My lord, let's meet it in person, it's always a joy that a second-order capable person can become a comrade." ”
The referee hesitated, he was not sure of Maddie's determination to surrender, but as Fanor said, there was a big difference between a second-order ability surrendering to him or surrendering to Fanor.
"Arthur, you accompany me to him." After thinking about it for a long time, the referee still didn't dare to take risks, and he didn't dare to let Fanor recruit Maddie alone.
If it goes well, the war with the Su Zhi is coming to an end, and the days ahead are still very long, and once the army becomes dominant, it will be a very dangerous thing in his opinion.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Seeing that Maddie can't be in the study, of course, not to mention the clutter in this place, just the huge portrait is the biggest obstacle for a traitor like Maddie to make a decision.
Twenty minutes later, Maddie was ushered into the reception room, where the chief referee was dressed and leaned back comfortably on the couch to sip tea, while Fanor stood behind him, not squinting.
Maddie walked in, glanced at Fanor, his eyes wandered, he didn't see the terrifying ghost face, and finally let out a sigh: "Judge Sir." ”
"Medellan. Ilnophil. I was surprised that you would come to see me. The referee slowly blew open the tea leaves and took a sip.
"I am a warrior of the Ark, and I don't want Eden to fall into civil strife because of the personal ambitions of some people." Maddie said cautiously.
"Someone?" The referee looked at Maddie majestically, "So you're here to persuade me?" Mr. Colonel? ”
"You're mistaken." Maddie noticed that Fanol was looking at him like an ant, "I mean, the behavior of Su Zhi and Lin Ke has touched my bottom line as an Ark warrior, so ...... So ......"
"What are you standing for? Sit down. Without warning, the referee turned his face, "Professor Su has emotions about the appointment after he returns, and I can understand it." But the Ark is the Ark of all scientists, and even his students, I can't ignore the voices of the members. ”
"Yes." Maddie hurriedly picked it up, but didn't dare to overdo it. This kind of conversation was too torturous for someone like him, and he finally decided to get to the point, "I have been in charge of the knights in place of Lin Ke all these years, and there are still some warriors who are loyal to me. When I was injured this time, an old subordinate came to see me, and he told me that Su Zhi had stayed in a villa managed by him a few days ago, near the island border. ”
Bang dang! The teacup hit the coffee table, interrupting Maddie's words, and the referee coughed lightly, barely able to hide his gaffe: "Professor Su, didn't he go to Ulaanbaatar?" ”
"That's why I'm worried that the couple is going to make a move in Eden, and for the stability of Eden, I think ......" Maddie was speechless, frozen there in embarrassment, her face flushed.
"I understand Colonel Ilnophil's feelings, it is difficult to turn your back on your old superiors, but your determination to maintain the stability of Eden will be recognized by the world, I promise." The referee stood up and took the initiative to shake Maddie's hand, "Arthur, you must know, you can talk to him about specific things." After this incident, the Knights still need you to work a little harder. ”
"I don't want to stay in the Knights!" Maddie was terrified, the Knights of Light is Su Zhi's hardcore troops, even if it has been cleaned up for many years, there are still a large number of Su Zhi's followers, he betrayed Su Zhi to save his life, who knows how long he can live after the news gets out, "I want to join Les Miserables!" ”
"This ......," the referee hesitated.
"Your Excellency, the Ark military system is chaotic, Les Miserables and the Knights of the Holy Light, in fact, there are many overlapping functions, I suggest that the two forces be integrated after a while, and the new troops will be directly managed by the Inquisition, so that more resources can be used for scientific research and the development of other fields." Fanor whispered.
"It's a big deal, we'll talk about it later." Fanor's suggestion to the chief judge was very tempting, but now was the time to rely on him, and he couldn't chill his heart, so the chief judge decided to delay, "Maddie, after this matter is over, you must master the knights, which is also a test of your ability." After explaining to Maddie, the referee looked at Fanor, "Professor Su, you go and deal with it." ”
The referee left, walking heavily, without the slightest hint of embarrassment and old age half an hour ago, Fanor looked at his back, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which happened to fall in Maddie's eyes.
Maddie shuddered and quickly looked away. I don't know why, although this Fanor is of the same level as him, and even inferior to him in progression, Maddie feels a chill when she sees him, as if she is standing on a frozen lake, and the surface of the lake is crumbling.
"Your senses are acute, which seems to be a common merit among traitors." Fanol's words were as mean as a knife, but they sounded like a compliment.
"My lord, I ......" Maddie wanted to explain, but didn't know where to explain.
"I'm really complimenting you." Fanol waved his hand, "Let's go see Su Zhi." ”
"How many people are you going to bring?" Since the other party doesn't want to talk, Maddie naturally doesn't dare to talk, he is a cowardly person, for him, both sides of Eden's forces are terrible, and they can easily kill him.
"See an old man, it's enough for the two of us." Fanol took out his phone from his military uniform, "The others will go to see Lin Ke." ”
……
Lying alone on the wide bed, Lin Ke tossed and turned. Everything was perfectly arranged, and in order to prevent exposure, even she restrained the urge to see Su Zhi these days. Judging from the information from the other side, they have completely lost the trace of Su Zhi. But why, is there a little panic tonight?
The person who took care of Su Zhi was a personal guard class that she had deliberately left behind, and those girls were orphans she had taken in from all over the Ark, and they were absolutely reliable.
In addition, even Maddie didn't know the specific whereabouts of Su Zhi, after Mo Ju's death, Su Zhi and she entrusted Maddie with important tasks, but that man had second-order strength, and he was still a villain who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Villain." Lin Ke rolled over, "It would be nice if Brother Du Ze was here." "The Chen family is a retainer of the Su family, and this kind of subordinates' loyalty to their superiors is the most reliable, even as an adopted daughter, she is deeply affected.
Underling...... Lin Ke jumped up suddenly, she knew what the problem was, the soldiers who maintained the villa, before the opening of these secret villas, the maintenance work was handed over to the knights, and the person who was specifically responsible was Maddie.
"Damn it!" Lin Ke clenched his silver teeth, his body turned into a streamer, and he rushed to the hospital.
Wish...... It's me who is too careful.
