Can you?

Mankind...... Is it really possible to take a step back?

Miriku Kaga, slumped limply onto her seat.

"No...... Yes. ”

See, he knows the answer, too.

The head secretary of the Heavenly Way looked at the sudden loss of spirit in front of him, and his body was full of twilight, as if he had aged a few years in an instant, and sighed in his heart, but he still continued: "Therefore, taking a step forward is the last way out for mankind. ”

The head secretary of the Heavenly Dao raised his right hand and pointed at the sky with his index finger: "Grandma said that if there is no way to retreat, it means that it is time to move forward." ”

Where the fingertips point is where the sun is.

The dazzling sunlight fell through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the body of the Heavenly Dao Chief, reflecting him like a god, guiding the mortal believers in the right direction.

Miriku Kaga, stunned for a moment.

After a long silence, he came back to his senses and asked, "So, what are you going to do?" ”

"Let's get to the bottom of the protozoa...... Heavenly Dao General Division said in an extremely calm tone, "For example, how many of the Zect ant soldiers who enlisted as humans are still humans. ”

"What!?" Hearing this, Kagamilu stood up with a stunned face and shouted in disbelief, "Has the erosion of humans by protozoa reached this point!?" ”

The Heavenly Dao General Division nodded.

As a result, Miriku Kaga's face, which had just turned red from excitement, turned white again, and her body was weak for a while, and she fell back to her seat.

He muttered to himself in a daze, helpless and remorseful voice: "How the hell did they do this under my nose......"

At this point, Miriku Kaga's expression froze, and then her eyes widened.

In his mind, something that he had been asking someone to investigate suddenly came to mind.

Thinking of this, he immediately got up, but he didn't get up all of a sudden.

Seeing this, the head secretary of the Heavenly Way stepped forward and wanted to help, but was rejected by Miriku Kaga.

I saw Kaga Milu pressing the table with his hand, gritting his teeth, trying to support himself, walked to the cabinet, opened the safe in it, took out a closed long box, and brought it to the head of the Heavenly Dao Division, paused, and took the box away a little, and then slowly opened it.

The head secretary of the Heavenly Way looked at the long box in Miriku Kaga's hand, his mind turned, and he had a vague realization in his heart, guessing what was inside.

Sure enough, when Miriku Kaga opened the box, a necklace carved from greenstone appeared in front of the head of the Heavenly Division.

I only heard Miriku Kaga say: "Recently, I found out that Negishi has been sending people to secretly distribute this necklace to the ant soldiers, so I asked a trusted person to collect a few, except for this one I left, the rest were quietly sent to foreign research institutions for testing, but so far there have been no special finds......"

Speaking of this, Miriku Kaga's voice paused, and the fingers holding the box involuntarily forced, and then, he took a deep breath, looked into the eyes of the head secretary of the Heavenly Way and continued.

"Director-General, since you have not only found out Negishi's final plan, but also found out the samples he hid, do you know what this is?"

The head secretary of the Heavenly Way lowered his eyes, nodded, and replied to Miriku Kaga without concealment: "As you think, this necklace is the receiver of a machine capable of turning humans into protozoa. ”

Hearing this, Miriku Kaga's palm trembled, and then he slammed the long box in his hand to the ground in great anger, and the greenstone necklace in it shook out of the box, colliding with the ground with the long box, making a strange sound.

Someone outside heard the sound and immediately pushed the door in, and at the same time actively shouted worriedly: "Director! Are you alright? ”

But in the next moment, he was scolded by Kaga Miriku.

"Who let you in? Get out! No one is allowed to come in without my orders! ”

The man's expression froze instantly, as if his reprimanded brain had suddenly emptied, and then he bowed down in horror and apologized without even daring to look at Kagamiriku's face, then turned around and quickly exited Kagamiriku's office.

The Chief Secretary of the Heavenly Dao watched thoughtfully at the back of the man leaving, until the rapidly closing door of the office cut him off.

At this time, Miriku Kaga, who had calmed down a little, noticed the strange look on the expression of the head secretary of the Heavenly Dao, and followed his line of sight to the door, and his face quickly became a little ugly again.

"He, there's a problem?"

Miriku Kaga, looking back at the head of the Heavenly Way and asked.

"Hmm."

The head secretary of the Heavenly Way nodded, also retracted his gaze, and looked at Miriku Kaga and replied seriously.

"He's got a greenstone necklace with a protozoa."

Just now, when the person bowed down to apologize before leaving, the Heavenly Dao General Division found the greenstone necklace hidden around the man's neck with excellent eyesight.

Although it was only a quick glance and did not see the whole picture, the Heavenly Dao General Division was eighty percent sure that the person was indeed carrying a protozoa's greenstone necklace.

After all, generally speaking, even if you notice an unusual noise in the governor's office, you should shout and ask first, and only act on your own if you don't get a response.

But the man pushed the door straight in.

Although I also shouted, I shouted again when I entered the door, and looked at its police badge, which didn't seem like I didn't understand, so it was a bit fake.

If it weren't for the fact that Kagamilu was angry just now, he would have found this.

Sure enough, recalling carefully, the more Miriku Kaga thought about it, the more she felt that there was something wrong with that person.

After a long time, he raised his hand to support his forehead, endured the headache and said, "It's that I think it's simple...... It seems that not only ZECT, but I, the Metropolitan Police Department, should also be carefully investigated. ”

"More than that."

The General Division of Heavenly Dao said.

"Politics and business, those who hold great power, whether they are in office or retired, should also be screened."

He looked at Miriku Kaga and reminded meaningfully.

"The lifespan of a protozoa is very long."

At least, certainly longer than humans.

Miriku Kaga, who is already approaching the year of the sixtieth year, instantly realized the prompt of the head of the Heavenly Dao.

There is a great terror between life and death.

Since ancient times, there have been countless absurd things done by old people who are in power and seek immortality.

And now, a practical solution is in front of them.

All they need is to give up their human identity......

At this moment, Miriku Kaga only felt chills all over his body.

Thinking about it, I am terrified.

"I ...... I'm going to clean up the Ministry of Public Security as soon as possible, and then let them go all out to screen for this matter. ”

"Hmm."

Seeing that Kaga Miriku had already made up his mind, the head secretary of the Heavenly Way nodded and moved on to the next thing.

"Although there is still a crisis of alien insects, but now, although the crisis is not small, it is not big, so the protozoa may also turn the table in advance, for this, you have to be prepared to leave yourself with enough protective force.

"For example, if you transfer Kagami Shin to your side, you can't let him go on a rampage outside knowing nothing.

"There are some things that it's time to tell him."

Miriku Kaga nodded: "I'll have a good talk with him." ”

"Hmm." "In addition, for those protozoa that are known to have been fighting side by side with us humans, as well as protozoa that live in human society in accordance with the law and choose dying people instead of actively killing them when mimicking, you should pay attention to them, and ask experts to profile their psychology and speculate whether they are supporters of the Negishi theory.

"If not, try to get in touch with them a little deeper and see if we can win them over to our side."

Don't beat all the protozoa on the earth to the enemy's side, but win over a part, suppress a part, and target a part, so that friends will be more and enemies will be fewer.

For this, Kaga Miriku thought about it, agreed, and responded again.

In this way, unconsciously, it became the head of the Heavenly Way in the direction of the commander-in-chief, giving instructions, and Miriku Kaga obeyed the arrangement.

And the last order given by the Heavenly Dao General Division was-

"Remove the wanted notice for Yache and retrieve Kageyama who has been expelled from the Shadow Squad."
