Chapter 919: There Are Ghosts
The worm went over and opened the door, and the turtledove found that it was the same Bell he had known earlier. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Why didn't you leave without saying a word in the cafeteria, it turns out that you two really know each other," Bell said, moving his gaze from the turtledove's body to the little worm, "The commander asks you to come over." ā
Seeing Bell leave, the depression on the little worm's face was instantly swept away, and she patted the turtledove on the shoulder and said to him:
"It looks like we're done with the meeting, and we'll be able to see my little aunt again soon."
ā¦ā¦
Worm had been in the branch for days, and of course she knew where to find Lilith, and as she walked through it, Worm led the turtledove to the door of Lilith's exclusive room.
"Why are you so nervous?"
The little worm, who was about to knock on the door, looked back at the turtledove.
"IāI'm not nervous," Ikaruga shook his head in denial, "you leave me alone, I haven't seen anything in the scene." ā
So the worm stopped looking at him, "Bang Bang Bang" knocked on the door, and then the worm didn't care whether the people inside called her or not, she directly twisted the doorknob and broke inside, only to see the door open, a woman sat behind the desk facing the door, looking down at the many documents in front of her.
"Aunt Lilith."
The little worm is quite sweet.
Just listening to Enid's description, coupled with Roger's statement that she joined Wings of Liberty before himself, Ikaruga had the impression of Lilith as an old witch with a pointed hat and gloomy eyes, but the woman behind the desk had nothing to do with the image of the "old witch".
A camouflage combat uniform sets off her heroic temperament, and her short black hair further emphasizes her ability, with a thin face and delicate facial features, no matter how you look at it, she is only in her thirties, how can this be the predecessor of Roger and Galahad.
"Yo, you're here," Lilith, who was busy with official business, looked up and smiled, "Who's in the back?" ā
"He's the turtledove I told you about."
The worm turned around and pulled the turtledove through the door.
"Turtledove."
Lilith nodded at the turtledove as if she had said hello, and then she said to the worm:
"I've got some not-so-good news for you."
ā¦ā¦
Indeed, as the worm said, Lilith promised that she would negotiate with Himmler about Natalia to see if she could get Himmler to release Natalia, who he had captured, but the result was obviously not very good.
"Himmler refused to let him go."
Lilith has always been so straightforward.
"What should I do?"
The worm panicked all at once.
"Don't worry," Lilith comforted the worm, "Himmler won't dare to do anything to Natalia for a while, in fact, Himmler didn't want to arrest Natalia because of you, but because of blackmail...... We still have time to blackmail that person. ā
Although Lilith didn't say it explicitly, Ikaruga still heard that "that man" was referring to Roger.
"Himmler has been planning to move troops to the new empire for a long time, and suddenly he is stopped, Himmler will naturally become a little frustrated, not to mention that he is worried about more than that, Himmler is afraid that if that person continues to act, his position as leader will not be stable, so he will spare no effort to find trouble with Natalia, but you can rest assured, Himmler will not give Natalia anything."
Regardless of what Lilith says, it's true that Natalia is in danger, and Worm doesn't want to lose her little aunt.
"Your name is Turtledove, right?"
Changing the subject is probably something that everyone does, and in order not to let the worm worry about Natalia anymore, Lilith deliberately leads the topic to Turtledove.
"That's right, I'm called Turtledove."
"Who gave you that name? It's weird, isn't it? ā
Not only did Lilith speak straightforwardly, but she didn't think about the feelings of others, at least not the feelings of the turtledove.
Seeing this, Lilith waved her hand and said, "It's not too early, you two should go back and rest first, I still have some things to deal with here, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ā
"Yes, turtledove," Lilith continued, "I'll arrange a lodging for you." ā
Lilith arranged a place for the turtledove next to the worm, and the turtledove naturally couldn't ask for this, he hadn't seen the worm for a long time, and there were countless words in his stomach to talk to the worm, but when he really sat in her room with the worm's eyes, the turtledove felt a little unable to speak.
In this case, the turtledove had no choice but to say "good night" to the little worm, or like Lilith said, if there is anything to say until tomorrow, it is almost midnight.
ā¦ā¦
Lying alone in her room, the little worm couldn't sleep tossing and turning, she stared at the ceiling with two eyes, thinking of "that man", and shook her head, the little worm tried not to think about the questions, she began to count the sheep, and suddenly there was a quiet sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door.
"Huh?"
Finally, the little worm who had a little sleepiness was excited, because although there will be soldiers of the Wings of Freedom patrolling back and forth in the sub-base day and night, those people will never deliberately carry their own steps.
Flipping off the bed, the little worm unscrewed the door lightly, with the "eagle eye", she didn't need to turn on the light at all, so carefully poked half of her head outside, the little worm only saw a black shadow hurriedly disappeared at the end of the aisle in front of her.
"Who is this?"
The little worm followed with a lot of doubts, and after walking two steps, she "snapped" and touched her body, only then did she remember that she didn't have any weapons with her, and wanted to go back to get a pistol or something, and the little worm felt that instead of this, she might as well find a "humanoid weapon" to come over.
Unscrewed the door of the turtledove, and the worm knew that the guy had forgotten to lock the door from the inside.
"Wake up, wake up."
The little worm patted the turtledove's face, and saw that the turtledove was sleeping like a dead pig, so she had to pinch the turtledove's nose tightly, and the panting turtledove finally snorted and scratched there with both hands, and the little insect covered his mouth and told the turtledove not to make a sound.
It took more than ten seconds for the turtledove to wake up from his sleep, he picked up the hand that was covering his mouth, and asked curiously: "You don't sleep well at night, why are you running here to toss me?" ā
"What for?" The worm lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "I found a 'ghost' in this base. (To be continued.) )
