Chapter 16: Honkai II: Me and Freedom (No. 16) 1

"This is a newly built military port 30 kilometers from the eastern suburbs of District 0202, and at 8 o'clock this morning, a formation composed of two destroyers sailed into the military port, and at 10 o'clock it will set off for Crescent Island for exploration. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"This is the Nansha Islands, and now there was an airport covering an area of more than 20,000 square meters on the sea, but at this time there is no trace of it."

"At present, the federal top level is investigating the incident, and a special investigation team has been formed and is currently rushing to the scene of the incident."

"At 6 a.m. today, the federal government held a press conference to make a public statement about the attack on Crescent Island."

Ye Zifeng leaned on the hospital bed and watched the TV boredly, but no matter which channel it was, it was broadcasting the incident of the attack on Crescent Island. It seems that the Earth Federation has not made the true image of the incident public, but the comments on the Internet are endless, some say it is a conspiracy of pilgrims, some say that it is a deep-sea methane gas explosion, and some say that the Earth Federation has fabricated an illusion, but there is no Crescent Island at all.

Ye Zifeng turned off the TV, got up from putting it on, took out a lollipop from the drawer of the bedside table, put it in his mouth, put on his coat and left the ward. It has been eight days in the hospital, and the doctor said that he didn't know why, but the injury healed so quickly, and even the old wound on the lungs before was already healed, and there was no trace of it. Ye Zifeng could only smile bitterly in the face of such a statement, he didn't want to mention the matter of RCD, I heard that it was a product of the Bermuda Research Institute of the Admiralty, if he said it, it would not be suspected. After the death of the mask, Ye Zifeng would report to the Ministry of Defense, and the senior management of the Ministry of Defense did not raise any suspicions about Ye Zifeng, and they didn't even know what Ye Zifeng had done in the past few days. However, this is also normal, Ye Zifeng helped the Admiralty complete the "Sky Sword" operation and destroyed the "Heavenly Retribution" system of the Ministry of Defense on the first day of June, the speed was too fast, and the Ministry of Defense did not have time to react at all.

Kanae Kawasaki's condition was not too bad, but the hospital insisted that she would not be discharged, saying that the high-temperature plasma burns could cause scars on her arms and that she needed regular daily injections of activators to keep her body active. Kawasaki Kanae agreed without thinking about it, after all, no girl wants to leave a scar on her body.

There weren't many patients in the hospital, and the third floor where Ye Zifeng lived seemed a little empty. The doctor said that it was best for Ye Zifeng not to go out all the time, and it was best to recuperate in the hospital, so that he could be rescued in time when there was any danger. However, of course, Ye Zifeng is not a person who can be idle, and he disappears every day.

Taking out his mobile phone from his pocket, Ye Zifeng wanted to dial Saber's phone number, but a piece of paper fell from his pocket, and Ye Zifeng bent over to pick it up. A white-dressed, brown-haired girl smiles at the camera in the August breeze on Red Square, and the majestic St. Paul's Cathedral behind her shines like an angel. Ye Zifeng stared at the photo for a few seconds, then picked up his mobile phone, looked for it in the phone book inside, and dialed a number.

"Hello, this is Liancheng Detective Agency." A man's voice came from the opposite side, gentle and elegant, and Ye Zifeng could even imagine the image of a man with a soft smile on his face and rimless glasses on his face after hearing it.

"That ......" Ye Zifeng thought for a while, flipped over the photo, and looked at the words on the back of the photo, "Excuse me, Xia Lu. Valnord. He. LI Lin. Is Camila there? ”

"Huh?" The other side was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry, I haven't heard of this name." ”

"No, the last time I saw her, she said it was in the Liancheng Detective Agency." Ye Zifeng asked suspiciously.

"Then please wait a minute, I'll ask." The man still said gently, "What do you call you?" ”

"Ye Zifeng." Ye Zifeng immediately replied, "My name is Ye Zifeng." ”

"Please wait, Mr. Ye." The man hung up the phone, a hurried busy sound came out of the microphone, Ye Zifeng sighed, and stuffed the phone back into his pocket.

There was a person walking in front of him, fat and very cute, with a face of four dishes and one soup with a pair of eyes, and the neat separation made him look like a politician with a successful career, but this outfit is not like that.

"Ye Zifeng." The person who came waved his hand and ran two steps towards Ye Zifeng's side, and the beads of sweat on his face flowed down like a waterfall.

"Mr. Yamamoto." Ye Zifeng nodded, "You really found the glasses you can wear." And what's going on with your clothes? ”

"Oh, it's the costume." Keiichi Yamamoto looked down at his Ronald McDonald jumpsuit, smiled and scratched the back of his head.

"At first glance, it is custom-made and elasticated." Ye Zifeng sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Ye, how is your health? Feeling better? Keiichi Yamamoto didn't know how to speak, and as soon as the topic came up, he began to circle around.

"Don't say anything else, I'm in good health." Ye Zifeng raised his chin, "Let's talk as you go, why are you dressed like this to come to me?" ”

"Mr. Ye, no, sir." Keiichi Yamamoto kept up with Ye Zifeng's pace, and the expression on his face became serious, "Something happened, sir." ”

"Something's wrong?" Ye Zifeng stopped and turned his head to look at Keiichi Yamamoto, "What's wrong?" ”

"The Liancheng Detective Agency received a case that was ordered by the Ministry of Defense, and we went to the scene to check and found that the deceased was a member of the 'outside'." Keiichi Yamamoto lowered his voice and leaned his mouth to Ye Zifeng and said, "We suspect that it was a murder, but the scene is too weird." ”

"Detailed instructions." Ye Zifeng's brows furrowed, "Wait, take me over." ”

"Okay." Keiichi Yamamoto agreed very happily, it seems that he came here to find Ye Zifeng and bring Ye Zifeng over.

Ye Zifeng's mobile phone rang, and the melodious "The First Town" echoed in the hallway, and patients and medical staff alike turned their eyes to it. Ye Zifeng hurriedly picked up the phone, and the gentle man's voice on the other side sounded.

"Mr. Ye."

"It's me." Ye Zifeng nodded.

"An order from the upline to get you to the ******** east of the city at once, where the person you are looking for is waiting for you." The man said a place name, which Ye Zifeng had not heard of.

Although he was a little embarrassed, Ye Zifeng still responded calmly: "Thank you, I know, let's go." ”

"Good luck." The man said something inexplicably and hung up the phone.

"I don't know why, but I always feel that this sentence is a little weird." Ye Zifeng stuffed the phone back into his pocket and turned his head to look at Keiichi Yamamoto, "Do you know ******** there?" ”

"We're going there."

The 33-story building towers in the middle of a specially carved square, and a huge LDE screen plays an advertisement for cosmetics, in which the female star holds an emollient skin serum and kisses the camera, her bright red lips like a female ghost.

"How could I not have known such a landmark building?" Ye Zifeng raised his head and pointed with his fingers layer by layer.

"Don't be so unproductive, it's natural that you haven't seen it." Keiichi Yamamoto pulled Ye Zifeng into the ******** building, and the cool air came to his face, "This building was just completed this year, and it is not under your jurisdiction, of course you don't know that there is such a building." ”

"Oh, I see." Ye Zifeng nodded, "What the hell is going on, where is the deceased?" ”

"The body has been taken away, and now it should be with the medical examiner." Keiichi Yamamoto replied, "The killing took place in the performance hall on the twelfth floor, where animal training acrobatics have been being performed lately, and an international circus company arrived a few days ago and said it was going to perform for a week. ”

"I haven't heard of it." Ye Zifeng shook his head, the soldiers of the Defense Department had already blocked the elevator, and the elevator could not lead to the twelfth floor.

"It's been on TV." Keiichi Yamamoto shook his head helplessly.

"But I've been reporting on the incident on Crescent Island on TV." Ye Zifeng retorted.

"Maybe Crescent Island is too eye-catching, let's bury this matter, and there aren't many people who have come to see it recently." Keiichi Yamamoto had a pass for the soldier to have an accident, and he and Ye Zifeng boarded the elevator to the twelfth floor, "The 'outside' member is called Sahir. Muhammad was a commissioner from the Arab side. ”

"Arabs?" Ye Zifeng thought about it for a while, "I guess Sahir should be the only commissioner here, and the commissioners from other places should have already arrived in Shanghai." ”

"Oh, you know that." Keiichi Yamamoto was a little surprised.

"Of course I know that in two days it will be the day of implementation of the 'Confidential Documents' plan, and the other places will come to help you just want a spoonful of soup." Ye Zifeng pursed his lips, looking a little disdainful.

"Well, that makes sense, that's what Chief Camilla said." Keiichi Yamamoto nodded earnestly.

Ye Zifeng was stunned when he heard Yamamoto Keiichi's words, and Sui Jin grabbed Yamamoto Keiichi's shoulder.

"Camilla, you say? Chief Camilla? ”

Keiichi Yamamoto looked at Ye Zifeng's somewhat hideous expression, and subconsciously replied.

"Yes, that's right, Chief Camilla." Kei Yamamoto nodded repeatedly. It was the clatter of the elevator door opening.

"She is the chief agent of our Liancheng Detective Agency, and of course she has to come out in person if such a big thing happens." Keiichi Yamamoto was a little puzzled why Ye Zifeng was so excited when he heard Camilla. Could it be? No way! Keiichi Yamamoto shook his head vigorously, denying what he was thinking.

Walking out of the elevator, Keiichi Yamamoto didn't talk too much nonsense, and went straight to the theater with Ye Zifeng. Ye Zifeng was silent after hearing the surname Camilla. I don't know why, after hearing this surname, Ye Zifeng always felt as if his chest was being pressed by something, and the suffocation made Ye Zifeng gasp constantly.

"This is it." Keiichi Yamamoto put the pass at the guard at the door, and walked into the theater with Ye Zifeng pushing the door. The scene of the accident needs to be investigated, and more than a dozen staff members wearing uniforms with the words "Technical Section On-site Investigation" written in white font on the back are working in pairs and twos with unknown equipment in every corner of this huge theater, carefully looking for clues. On the circular stage in the center, five people are sitting around a computer, not knowing what to say. One of the brown-haired figures made Ye Zifeng's eyes light up, and at the same time, his chest was slightly pinched.

"Come with me." Keiichi Yamamoto walked down from the stepped audience platform, stepped over the fence of the main center stage, and led Ye Zifeng to the stage. The five people who were talking on the stage immediately stopped talking and looked at Keiichi Yamamoto and Ye Zifeng.

"Mr. Yamamoto." A middle-aged woman with discounted rimless glasses greeted her, her slightly wrinkled face was too serious and serious, and a purple professional skirt showed the lady's noble status.

"Let me introduce you, this is Ms. Xia Yue, the chairman of ******** Group." Keiichi Yamamoto pushed Ye Zifeng forward, and Ye Zifeng had no choice but to stretch out his arm.

"This is the captain of the Defense Department I said, Ye Zifeng." Keiichi Yamamoto patted Ye Zifeng on the shoulder, "The person designated by the Ministry of Defense to assist the investigator." ”

"Why didn't I know about this?" Xia Yue frowned, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes and the forehead lines on her forehead immediately deepened to the point where she could already trap mosquitoes. Ye Zifeng speculated in his heart the real age of this Ms. Xia, judging from the degree of skin laxity, she should be fifty years old, but counting the wear and tear that she could not carry out careful maintenance because of the busy affairs of the chairman, Ye Zifeng estimated that Ms. Xia Yue was about forty-five or sixteen years old.

However, it was rude to speculate on the lady's age behind her back, Ye Zifeng coughed slightly, hiding the embarrassment in his heart.

"I haven't heard of it either." Ye Zifeng came to Keiichi Yamamoto's side and said softly, "Could it be that you are mistaken?" ”

"No, no, no. Let me explain. Keiichi Yamamoto smiled and took out a stack of documents from his arms, divided them into two and handed them to Ye Zifeng and Ms. Xia Yue respectively.

Ye Zifeng took the document, took a cursory look at the contents inside, and then turned directly to the last page.

"This is obviously what you requested, what kind of defense department designated to assist the investigator." Ye Zifeng pursed his lips.

"But the Defense Department agreed, didn't it?" Keiichi Yamamoto smiled and took back the document in Ye Zifeng's hand, and then turned his head to look at Xia Yue, "This document will be left with you as a backup, if you have any objections, you can appeal with the documents." ”

"Hey, I haven't heard of that!" Ye Zifeng protested. It's already very good to come to help yourself, and it's not that you want to come, and you can still grasp the appeal if you ask what the other party is not satisfied with, which is not fair!

"It's nothing, it's an agreement, and if you change it back after reading it, it's equivalent to that you've agreed." Keiichi Yamamoto took out a ballpoint pen from the pocket of his clown suit and signed his name for Ye Zifeng on the last page of the document.

"If you didn't sign it yourself, it shouldn't count......" Ye Zifeng didn't stop it, he didn't have the energy to stop it.

"Who saw that it wasn't you who signed it?" After Keiichi Yamamoto put the ballpoint pen back in his pocket, he threw a sly smile at Ye Zifeng. Ye Zifeng was no longer able to complain.

"I see." Ms. Xia Yue finally finished reading the agreement on the document, nodded slightly, and began to express her opinion, "Since it is a person sent by the Ministry of Defense to assist the investigator, then it is not good for me to stop anything." However, there are a few things to be aware of, first, not to interfere with the normal operation of other floors. Second, don't use our group staff to do the work for you. Thirdly, in the event of a personal accident, our group is not responsible. ”

The stakes are well organized, and the investigation has not yet started, Ye Zifeng has to admire such a meticulous way of thinking, but after listening to it, he is still a little angry, I will help you, but you have such an attitude, isn't it obvious that you don't look at people in your eyes? Who would be willing to come to work in such a group?

However, Ye Zifeng said these words in his stomach, and now such a long river is really not already said by these words, after all, the two sides are a cooperative relationship, and the cooperation has ended before it has even begun, and it is impossible to say anything. There is always one side to endure, Ye Zifeng said comforting himself in his heart.

"Then let's start investigating, I need to know more about ******** Group, such as multiple business projects, asset scope and social relations." Ye Zifeng walked towards the other four people in the center of the circular stage. It can be seen that the other four are the ones who are really solving the case.

"Hello, Mr. Ye Zifeng, we meet again." A familiar face responded, and Ye Zifeng thought for a moment, a little stunned.

"Paul. Schneider? Why are you here? Ye Zifeng looked at this Germanic-faced young man with blond hair and blue-gray pupils in surprise, and couldn't help asking.

"I'm now an assistant detective at Liancheng Detective Agency, and I'm here for an internship and assistance." Paul smiled and shook Ye Zifeng's hand, and then let out the other two unfamiliar faces behind him.

"These two are the heads of the Ministry of Defense, and they are in charge of investigating this matter." Paul said, "This time the person who died was Sahir of the Arab Ministry of Defense. Lieutenant Colonel Mohammed, who came to Area 0202 to attend a report on new technical products from the Department of Defense. ”

"This is Captain Li Mu." Paul pointed to the one on the left, Ye Zifeng shook hands with him, and the two nodded.

"This is Captain Charter." Paul pointed to the one on his right, and the two shook hands, again nodding.

"My name is Ye Zifeng, and I also have the rank of captain, but this time I am not here to be in power, nominally I am just an assistant investigator." Ye Zifeng briefly introduced himself, "Let's talk about the situation, what do we all know?" ”

"This." Li Mu handed over a document, "There is a detailed case report on it, we have investigated what you asked before, but we still have no clue." ”
