"Can I get a clearer explanation?"

Charlotte gently brushed her long hair down, felt the warm, invisible radiation hitting her skin, and looked directly at Logan.

"The reason is very simple, we will never be able to catch up with Ling Yu if we continue like this." Logan took the helmet, spread his hands, and looked at Charlotte with mocking eyes, "Otherwise, how can you say that the British are fools, you don't have that kind of improvised, unfettered-stirring stick style when you act independently." ”

"When I was a little girl? Annoyed and angry because of your casual words? Charlotte wasn't angry at Logan's map cannon, she just shook her head calmly, "What's more, this matter is a problem with my intelligence, I messed up, and the British soldiers don't shy away from mistakes." ”

"Don't you understand what I'm talking about, Miss Wood." Logan raised his hand and patted his head, but his expression was unfriendly with clear mockery, "If you still follow the same set in your army." We'll never find that guy. ”

"He's completely out of the system's control, think about it, why we're here," Logan continued directly, "It's because of Kronos's intelligence, not MI6's intelligence, right?" In other words, this is a beacon, and everyone in the whole world can know that Ling Yu will be here, fucking like a firefly that shows its glowing ass. ”

"The question is, what's next, do you have a way to know where Ling Yu is not here? Where to start? From MI6, which is no different from a blind man after crossing the English Channel? Can you stop being funny, now the president of the alliance doesn't know where Ling Yu went. ”

"That is, you have a way."

Charlotte automatically filtered Rogan's mocking words. Straight to the point.

"......" The blond-haired young man was stunned for a moment, and breathed a sigh of relief a little unwillingly, obviously a little helpless by Charlotte's Tai Chi punch.

But apparently finding fault is just a side hustle, Logan was silent for a moment and repeated the question above.

"So, Virus or Ling Yu, which are you looking for?" Logan clasped his helmet in both hands, "Your mission is to track down the virus, right?" Isn't there any other clue other than Ling Yu? ”

"So you know how to find Ling Yu."

Charlotte choked Logan directly in place this time. She looked at Logan, who had a look of surprise and displeasure in her eyes, and handed the helmet from her right hand to her left. There was no smile, "Then you come and lead the team, let's go find Ling Yu." ”

"Why should I go to Ling Yu?" Logan glared at Charlotte and retorted, "Even if I have a way." ”

"Because you want to." Charlotte stared straight into Logan's eyes, "I've provided more than one clue. And you didn't hesitate to think of coming here, if you didn't want to find Ling Yu, you wouldn't be standing here at all, what is the virus and the black gold room, is it delicious? ”

"I'm just thinking about your mission......" Logan was already desperately trying to hide his surprise expression.

"I have my own judgment on what my task is. The current situation is that you also want to find Ling Yu, I don't think there's anything to hide, I know you too well. ”

Charlotte raised her hand to comb her long blood-red hair, then pulled out her glasses from her chest and put them on the bridge of her nose, "Say, do you have any way to find Ling Yu, what do you need?" ”

"I'm not sure yet." Eventually, Logan gave up dwelling on the issue with the woman, "but I do have some, 'special' means. ”

"So what are you waiting for?" Charlotte asked rhetorically in a puzzled tone.

Rogan felt the scene familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment, he sighed, and then regained his indifferent expression.

"Okay, two problems, first of all, this method may not be very regular, you have to lose the one you learned in the army."

"I'm a freelance intelligence agent for MI6, and as long as you don't let me go to Downing Street to plant bombs, I don't care about the laws of the alliance." Charlotte raised her hand and pushed her glasses, her tone stern not like she was joking.

"Well, another question, now that I'm the captain, follow my rules and obey my orders unconditionally." Logan buttoned up his helmet, but didn't close his mask right away, "I'll take over." ”

"I have no opinion, you can be solely responsible for external communication, I only reserve the right to report regularly, you can review the content of my report and revise it." Charlotte shook her hand and took out the handset of the quantum communication device from her waist and threw it directly to Logan, "The password is 21510121, your birthday." ”

"Then, the first order, don't be so affectionate with me, call me captain."

Logan glanced at it, and in an unfriendly tone, he almost gave Charlotte a sentence as if he was finding fault and venting his anger.

"Captain." Charlotte was still not angry, and she stood up and gave a military salute.

Logan didn't say anything more, just buttoned up his mask and turned and walked to the car the two had been riding in.

Charlotte took off her glasses, reached for her hair, and put on her helmet until the helmet covered her face, and her expression did not change.

Leviathan. Sia sat on the streets of Victoria, holding an electronic board in her hand, and nodded rhythmically to the sound of the headphones.

This Victoria naturally has nothing to do with the United Kingdom, in fact, it is a northern city in the Mediterranean island nation of Malta, and naturally, it is also in the controlled district of the ACA.

Malta is strategically important in the Mediterranean. Unlike Spain, which has been basically abandoned by the ACA, the ACA Navy has the view that even if Gibraltar is lost, Malta must be defended, because as long as the Ionian Sea is held, then only half of the Mediterranean Sea will be lost, Italy can still hold on, and Greece and the entire Balkan theater will not collapse directly - after all, losing the whole of Europe in one go is something that the African side of the ACA cannot tolerate from top to bottom.

This view is even supported by the South American side of the ACA. Although two sets of governments were established in South America and Africa after the Char coup, in the face of pressure from the alliance, both sides still supported a nominal new prime minister - not Char, of course, but the former Minister of Agriculture and Labour, Mr. Paul. Kirk.

However, this qiē has nothing to do with Xia Ya, the mercenary does not need to care about politics, all she needs to care about is money.

A few trucks kicked up a cloud of dust and drove along the road, and Malta was not originally a first-line fighting city. But now that Spain and Portugal have fallen into the hands of the League, countless ACA engineering troops are gathering here, working overtime to build, and now that the regulations are issued, there are no pedestrians on the streets in the afternoon, most of the shops are closed, and only this café for ACA officials is still open as usual.

"Nice weather, right?"

Shia didn't look up. He spoke to the man who pulled out the stool in front of him, but the other party did not speak. Just put a card on the table and gently push it in front of Shia.

"And 10 percent cash."

Xia put the electronic board on the table, picked up the card in front of her, looked at it for a moment, and then picked up the lighter on the table and lit it, "I have received the transfer." ”

"I was ordered to test the vaccine samples."

The man in the suit exudes the temperament of a soldier all over his body. This kind of temperament is the best disguise in this café for officers, Xia smiled lightly, tilted her head, and then reached out to pick up the box from her feet and placed it on the table.

"Actually, I'm conflicted. This is not a virus, it is something that can save countless people. Thea let out a long sigh and smiled eerily, "What if I handed it over to the Alliance?" ”

The man in black didn't seem to want to communicate with Xia Ya, just opened the lockbox, and then took out a device and inserted it into the metal test tube, more than ten seconds passed, after confirming the green light, the man closed the safe, and then took out a bulging envelope from the side, slowly put it on the table, got up directly, and walked out of the café.

"Good luck." Although the other party had already walked away, Xia still stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation to the other party.

The girl leaned over the envelope on the table, pulled out a brand-new 1,000-dollar coin from it, picked up the lighter on the table, and lit it from a corner, and the coin rolled in the flames, revealing traces of blue ink.

It seemed to be identifying the authenticity of the coin, but the expression on Thea's face was more like that of a mischievous girl, and the firelight reflected her evil smile, and then the remains wrapped in the paper money fell into the ashtray next to it, completely burning into a cloud of flying ashes.

Then, the electronic board she had placed on the table vibrated slightly.

"I'm Leviathan."

"The money has already been received...... Thanks a lot. ”

A woman's voice came from the other side.

"That's three and a half million, right?" Xia smiled happily, just like a child who got a perfect score, "You should have got three million and one hundred and fifty thousand, and it is useful to keep 10% on my side, please don't mind." ”

"No, no, no! I didn't mean that...... It's just that...... You confirm that this is still ...... Donation? ”

The tone on the other side seemed very cautious, as if he was afraid that Xia would retract the decision to donate after hearing about it.

"Over the past year, I've donated more than 100 million universal coins to you, and if you have to confirm it every time, I'll be very troubled."

Sia politely pointed out the other party's pointless repetitive work, and the other side of the communication was noticeably quiet, but before she could speak, Xia directly stretched out her finger, gently put it on her lips, and shhh

"Shhh

"The old rule, don't ask where the money comes from, it doesn't matter at all, what matters is what you do with the money."

As if trying to dispel this thought, Xia raised her head, looked at the sun that was no longer hot in late autumn, and stretched out five fingers to separate the spots of light.

"So, stop asking these stupid questions, it's not good for anyone, do what you have to do, and I'll watch you guys."

"Thank you...... In any case, I thank you in place of those who are homeless. ”

The other side was silent for a while, but finally put away his curiosity and thanked Xia slowly and sincerely.

"Good luck, dear Annie."

Thea spoke slowly, then cut off the communication,

But in fact, "Dear Anne" is not a person, and the person she talks to is not called "Anne", this is actually an organization, or rather, the largest unofficial background charity organization in the League.

Unlike Kronos, the organization is dedicated to helping the poor who have nothing to do with the military, and although most of their poverty is due to war, Dear Anne is more of an orthodox charity organization than Kronos's view of charity as an investment or tax avoidance.

The funds came from voluntary donations, and most of the manpower was volunteers, but the girl looked at it for a while and determined that it was not the money laundering agencies that hung the sign of charitable organizations that started donating.

Three million 150,000, winter is coming, I hope the homeless can have some winter clothes.

Thinking like this, Xia smiled again, then stretched out her finger and tapped the headphones gently, the girl with exaggerated movements adjusted the headphones to music mode, then reached out and picked up the envelope on the table, put it in her pocket, and then picked up the electronic board, took out a banknote and left it on the table, and walked out of the café.
