“…… The third amendment to the TF Psychiatric Control Act, which was passed by the allied government a year ago, was voted on in Congress by a relative disadvantage, requiring all allied TFs to be forced to install implanted chips with positioning functions, and any removal or destruction of chips would be prosecuted for treason...... On the other hand, the attitude of the people towards this bill also moved from support to opposition with the outbreak of war......"

When the electronic watch on the basement wall jumped to three o'clock, in front of the white-haired girl, welding sparks were still splashing on the fire blanket on the ground like a waterfall.

Helis's body shook, and more than twenty mechanical arms with different functions in the air trembled with her movement, but the emergency work protection program was activated in an instant, and these mechanical arms did not hurt the drone that was being made because of the girl's sudden movements.

Helis lowered her head and looked at the half-finished drone on the workbench held in place by a robotic arm, and the sapphire-polished camera reflected the girl's face lifelessly.

After ten hours of intense work, even Herris felt tired, and instead of reaching out to wipe the sweat beads from her face, she stood in front of the workbench blankly.

A chair slowly turned its wheels behind the girl, who closed her eyes and sat down in the chair.

At the very least, I can do something about it.

Turning her head, she glanced at the dense array of drones that filled almost the entire basement, and she couldn't even remember how many necessary or unnecessary mechanical aids had been delivered to Ling Yu and them.

Will that make them safer? At least I didn't spend the rest of my life completely in this year, did I?

The machines more or less diluted Helis's pain, which she had always been accustomed to, and in fact, Helis herself was aware of. Especially in the past two years, every time she fell into the torment of memories, such high-intensity work could give her a little comfort.

But at this moment, Herris is not as usual, she is designing and building a group of people with a clear purpose. And the time to use it is next Wednesday.

Since I have wasted a year's time, next Wednesday, the last chance, must not be missed!

Helis stretched out his hand and pulled out a holographic screen, on which was the floor plan of the real yàn room, although this kind of thing was top secret, it was impossible to stump Helis.

Furthermore. Helis also took a quick look at a few clever Trojan horses he had planted in Rohms Corporation, but there was nothing out of the ordinary.

There is definitely something wrong with the Romans Group, but it's hard to say whether it's related to the ACA - which large group doesn't have a few unsavory projects, and it's hard to make any real progress on that basis alone.

Still, there was a sense that there would be some clues that could point to the ACA.

Pointing to her and Ling Yu's common enemy.

The white-haired girl stood up. More than a dozen mechanical arms suddenly moved neatly as if they had seen the commander and the soldiers who stood up and saluted. And then he got back to his place.

But before Helis could start again, suddenly, the holographic screen in front of her suddenly turned green, and then there was a crisp beep!

That's a call from the "Prism" squad!

***

Helis flew straight out of the basement and ran to the second floor as she took a set of clothes from the robotic arm and put it on.

She knew that there would only be one person who would contact her at such a time. The guy who needed his 24-hour intelligence support.

rushed to the computer, but Helis was a little disappointed, because instead of a black lightning bolt icon representing Ling Yu, the screen was displayed with a dazzling golden yellow artistic word.

Letter V.

Of course Herris knows the person behind this symbol, Vivien. Ennico. Or rather, another name is Sarah. Ingram, the Secret Service agent who protected the former President Harold until his death, wanted Ling Yu to take care of his daughter before he died.

In fact, two years ago, it was Helis who sent Vivian back to the rear when Ling Yu rescued her, and in Heris's impression, Vivian was a taciturn girl who barely showed her feelings, which was completely different from now.

However, after that, there was no further intersection between the two, and to this day, Helis had a somewhat strange feeling for Vivian to be able to stay by Ling Yu's side, she was not sure if it was jealousy or something, it was just a potential sense of competition, which had taken root in her heart.

What's the matter?

Although she was a little disappointed, Herris connected to the communication and typed a line, and the moment she picked up the headset, Vivien's unfamiliar voice came over.

"I need your help."

Helis was slightly stunned when she heard Vivian's characteristic voice that didn't look like asking for help at all, she frowned, even if her tone was still tough, but with Vivian's character, it was a bit unprecedented.

Not to mention to yourself.

Are you experiencing any difficulties?

Helis asked.

"Listen, it's not for me or us, it's for him, only you can help him."

Without waiting for Helis to react, Vivien sent a message to Helis.

Helis raised her hand to open the text, which was a routine report prepared by Arya, and Helis skipped some meaningless passages and went straight to what Vivien had marked with a red pen.

Her eyes moved, but her face gradually changed.

Helis took some time to read the report, and Vivien showed the patience that only Ling Yu had in front of her, and without urging, only her slight breathing could be heard from the microphone.

The white-haired girl adjusted her feelings, but she couldn't hide the stern sù on her face, she took a breath to calm herself down, and typed and asked.

I see it.

"He can't go on like this, he's going to break down, he's just a person. It's not a machine, even if I don't understand it, I can see that he has strict mental and psychological problems, and we have to do something! ”

Although she couldn't see each other's expressions, Herris could feel the eagerness of the girl like a flame in her voice.

…… I understand, but ......

Helis hesitated. Giving a reply, she gritted her teeth, in fact, since the incident on the cruise ship and Greenland, Helis had already vaguely felt this problem, she had been thinking about how to help Ling Yu, but obviously, she had no time.

"What do you mean, 'but'! I don't want to hear but! I knew that Ling Yu almost died in Madrid, and you are still here to talk to me, but?! ”

Vivien's breath exploded. Hurris retorted eagerly.

We can't stop him! You don't know anything at all! We can't do it!

As if angry, Helis turned up her font by one size, but she felt more than anger a tearing pain in her chest.

yes, I can't do anything by myself, that guy ...... That girl, her will. Her path ......

Don't say it's Ling Yu, you have to go on yourself!

"Then find a way to slow him down!"

Vivien, however, couldn't see Helis's pained expression. She spoke bluntly, but Helis's expression froze instantly.

"Listen, I know no one can get him to give up what he's doing, and I know exactly what I'm doing, Jess. Mino was right, but Ling Yu had completely twisted her will. We have to do something, even if we know there is little hope! ”

As if realizing that her tone was indeed a little too bad, Vivien took a deep breath and tried to control her feelings.

Even if there is little hope. Do you have to do it too? Do you want to continue even if you know you can't do it?

Helis's body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously replied to Vivien the sudden question in her heart.

"Are you stupid to read?! Or are all IQs fed to the dogs?! Give up if you don't try?! Are you still the person next to him?! ”

Vivien shouted again in response, as if because Helis's inquiry was too negative, and the angry Vivien's voice was even a little out of tune.

Helis listened to Vivien's voice, stunned for a second again, and then gritted her teeth, and her face showed a slight look of annoyance.

I'm not the one next to him, it's not your turn to draw conclusions!

"Then fucking do something that will make me change my conclusions!"

Vivien slammed her fist directly into the table, and through the communication device, Helis could hear the sound of metal twisting and deforming.

But the white-haired girl was completely choked by Vivien's words, and before she could react, Vivien took a deep breath and spoke again.

"Listen, Helice, I really don't know much about things between you, but that's not the point, the point is, although I don't know the details, Uncle Payne once told me what Sister Jess told you, I want you to remember every word she said to you that day in the ward."

Helis was not stunned this time, but completely, struck by Vivien's words.

Vivien held back her angry words, like a sharp sword, and instantly pierced Helis's chest, and Helis subconsciously even stopped breathing.

She could clearly feel that Vivien's blade-like words had cut through something.

The things that shrouded me in my heart, like a mist, were suddenly cut open, although small, but I could see that there was a special light, scattered from that gap.

It's like the brilliant light in the hospital room that shines on the floor through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"If you'd like, can you help me keep an eye on that idiot?"

Of course...... Needless to say......

Such a trifle......

Needless to say?!!

"Herris?"

As if she wasn't sure if she would say too much, Vivien's tone was much calmer, and after a moment of silence, she tentatively called out the white-haired girl's name.

Leave it to me, I'll figure it out.

Helis took a deep breath, her expression had regained her usual lightness, and the white-haired girl poked the holographic screen with her right hand before speaking.

"I'll wait and see, I hope you don't say it casually, otherwise I'll consider whether to allow you to continue to associate with Ling Yu."

Vivien was visibly relieved, but she deliberately dropped such a sentence.

It's really a child, Helis breathed a sigh of relief helplessly, and just as she was thinking about whether to teach this little girl a lesson in the status of an elder, Vivien's voice came from the microphone again.

"I've tried, but I can't help it, only you still have hope to get him back, it's really important."

"I may not know about Jessy, but there is one thing I am sure of, the person who stood in front of me with Ling Yu at the time, separating me from death...... Wouldn't want to see this qiē. ”

"Anyway, please."

Helis pursed her lips, and the words of criticism that had just come to her lips disappeared in this instant.

After all, Vivien is just a child, she is 25 years old, why should she have trouble with children?

Not to mention...... In fact, she cared about Ling Yu more than anyone else.

No, it's not anyone, it should be the person who cares about Ling Yu the most besides himself.

Leave this matter to me, I have my own way, and I have worked hard for you, help me take good care of him.

Helis shook her head, kicked her little tangled out of her mind, and replied kindly.

"No need for your nonsense."

Vivien shook off the words, and the communication was interrupted, and the golden V flickered and disappeared from the screen.

Helis smiled wryly, then took a deep breath.

Yes, in addition to saving the world, I have one more thing that I have to accomplish......

I almost forgot about myself.

Helis turned and walked to the coat rack next to her, her eyes falling on the backpack. (To be continued......)
