"Sulta, Merlene, you two now turn on the output device of the terminal. Saying a term that he didn't understand, Shure gave an order under the table, "I know you're uneasy right now, but rest assured, the Lord has taught us that keeping promises is a valuable quality, so from the beginning, we didn't intend to break it. Since you have kept your promises and provided us with effective help, then we will naturally give you enough in return. ”

"I've left you some interesting stuff in your lab terminal, you can take a look at it now, and after seeing it, I'm sure you'll be very satisfied. ”

"Huh?" The two men and women were in a state of anxiety, they didn't have the heart to listen to the conversation of the shadow chasers at all, staring at the experiment report in front of them according to the desktop, as if they were reading carefully, but in fact, their minds were already in a mess, and they were deeply worried about their fate. Fear and remorse ravaged their hearts, causing them to feel a faint pang in their brains and their ears buzzing until Shure's voice reached their ears.

The voice seemed to come from a long distance, the two were stunned for a while, and the rigid brain barely understood the meaning of these words, and the moment after understanding, the two of them were like being injected with a forbidden drug, and immediately regained their vitality, and grabbed the display screen of the terminal as fast as possible, and the two heads slammed together.

They didn't care about screaming in pain, or even felt pain at all, all their minds were focused on the display, while scrambling to control the terminal, while greedily browsing the information on the screen.

It doesn't seem to make a difference, but the two people who are familiar with all the information in the terminal are very keenly aware that among the four existing studies in the laboratory, there is a project that has just started and has a progress of less than one percent, and now the completion progress has advanced to ninety-five percent, all done by themselves, and for a moment the two even wondered if they had lost their memories and forgot that they had done these studies.

Of course, it will not be amnesia, because in addition to the four unfinished projects, there is also a completed research project, which the project laboratory has not applied for at all, let alone carried out, but the project report has been completed, and from the title to the final conclusion, no flaws can be found. Next to the project report, there is a detailed record of the experimental process, which is recorded step by step, looking at these experimental records, it is as if you really followed several highly capable researchers throughout the whole process, witnessing them doing their best to overcome the project.

After quickly reading these inexplicable extra things, Surta and Mai Lin glanced at each other, and they still had cold sweat oozing from before on their foreheads, but the ecstasy in their eyes could not be hidden in any way, because they knew that they were finally saved.

With that 95% progress of the project record, it is enough to explain the whereabouts of most of the shortfalls, although there is no record of actual expenses, but in the face of the real research process, the cost records or anything is no longer important, with this research record, the two of them can have a hundred ways to explain the whereabouts of those shortfalls.

Not to mention, there is also the completed study.

It's true that the research hasn't been declared yet, but that's not a problem, there have been many similar precedents in Sky City, and as a researcher, you can't care about anything when the inspiration comes, and you devote yourself to the research and completely forget that it's an undeclared project, which happens from time to time. It takes a long time to apply for a project, but inspiration waits for no one, so naturally it is done first, and as for the research funds, it is natural to use the insufficient funds of other projects, or even to pay in advance by themselves, as long as they can actually come up with results, the city hall will soon have insufficient funds for the project.

Therefore, as long as you have these two pieces of information in hand, you can not only fill the huge deficit in the past, but also take the opportunity to make a big profit, which is more credit than the previous deficit, it seems that this transaction is really huge, of course, provided that the data and conclusions of the data are true and reliable.

The two of them are not worried about this, they can climb to the middle level, and the two of them are also good enough researchers, whether the data is reliable or not, you can have a general understanding at a few glances, and there should be no big problem. Even if there are some small mistakes, or even if the final result is wrong because of small mistakes, it doesn't matter, because the whereabouts of the funds can already be explained, and at most they are reprimanded or even demoted by their superiors for wasting resources, which is much better than the results they feared before.

Finally relieved, after the tension dissipated, all that remained was fear and happiness, the two only felt weak, and they had to rely on arm support to barely stabilize their bodies, barely slumped in the chair, gasping for breath, and rejoicing for the rest of their lives.

"Judging by the way you guys, the problem should have been solved, hehehehe. Shuer's voice came into the ears of the two like a demon's whisper, and through the voice, the two of them seemed to have a smiling appearance in front of their eyes, and in their opinion, it was a rather frightening expression, "How is it, the gift other than the promise, are you still satisfied?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and this old adage came out of the hearts of the two of them at the same time, these people obviously have a certain understanding of the economic environment of Sky City, and since they have attached this data that can bring them great benefits, they must have further requirements, and it seems that they are happy a little too early.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I won't embarrass you. ”

Who believes it, it's no wonder that we are not embarrassed to stuff so many benefits for no reason. The two of them were eager to refuse Shuer's request, and the goal had been achieved, and they didn't want to have anything to do with these shadow chasers at all, but unfortunately they themselves knew that it was impossible. Their own handle is held in the hands of the other party, once it is announced, the other party may not have any impact, but the four of them will definitely be sentenced to death, so they have no room to refuse at all, obediently agree, at least everyone can still maintain a harmonious atmosphere on the surface, once they really tear off the camouflage and let them take threatening means, it will be even more passive.

"Satisfied, we are satisfied, this transaction is so perfect. Surta smiled flatteringly, his face was facing in the direction of Merin, as if he was talking to her, in fact, everyone knew that this was a misleading attempt to deceive possible surveillance, "The gifts you have given have far exceeded the price we have paid, hehe, in order to show gratitude, I don't know what other requests we have, we will do our best to meet them." ”

"Oh, that's good, I like smart people. Shule chuckled in satisfaction, "I said I wouldn't embarrass you, I'm sure I won't, I'm not in the habit of breaking my promises." ”

"That's great, hehe, hehe, what do you ask. ”

"It's very simple, we buy a batch of supplies, which includes all kinds of things, but our identity is more sensitive, and it is not convenient for us to come forward ourselves. Oh, you didn't ask why you were sensitive, that's good, it's not a good habit to be overly curious, but don't be afraid, it's not a secret, it won't be long before you hear rumors, and then you'll know why. ”

"It's important for us to have more of these supplies, so I hope you come forward to buy them, pay attention, everything must be done in secret, never attract the attention of others, once it is noticed by someone who cares, we are fine, but you are finished. ”

"What do you need to buy?" Hearing this, the hearts of the two of them tugged again, "It's too sensitive, we can't guarantee that we can buy it, we're just some researchers, and we can't touch those dangerous items and prohibited items." ”

"Tsk, you guys have a lot of imagination, it seems that you haven't read those fantasy stories, what do we want those dangerous goods and contraband, it's just that you want a few sets of civilian personal armor. ”

"What?" the two almost jumped on the spot, but fortunately they controlled it, wiping cold sweat and whispering, "Isn't that kind of thing dangerous enough, all buyers have to go through a strict review, and there must be detailed records, not to mention a few sets, even if you only buy one set, it is impossible not to attract attention." And the price of that thing is astronomical, and all of us can barely make up a set of possessions combined, and that will have to wait until your gift is exchanged for money. It's not that we make excuses, but I really can't do what you ask. ”

"Oh, I know, it's just to scare and scare you, you don't want to think about it, even if you buy it, we don't have a place to put it, you can't wear it on your body to show off the market. "Well, I almost understand the state of the people's armament here, and Xiu'er no longer bullied the two poor Neiying, and said with a smile, "It's just some ordinary weapons, like ordinary high-frequency vibration cutting devices and ordinary physical firearms, by the way, can energy-type weapons be bought?"

"If it is a low-power energy weapon like a plasma pistol, it can still be bought, but the amount cannot be too large, most of the high-power energy weapons are still in the trial stage, and the control is very strict, so it is unlikely to be bought. The two of them were already scared out of their mental problems, and they just wanted to end this tortured exchange as soon as possible, so they almost knew everything, "High-frequency shock weapons can only buy daggers for battle armor, this is the limit of what humans can use, and if it is larger, it will be sold with war armor." ”

"That's enough, some weapons, as well as a large number of electronic equipment, including a few personal terminals, the specific purchase catalog, I will list in detail what I gave you tonight, hehe, after this transaction, we don't owe each other, and we will treat it as if we have never traded in the future." By the way, I remind you that all goods should not be purchased from the black market, and must go through formal channels, otherwise, you will bear the consequences. ”
