It was another morning without the morning sun, and as usual, I put on my clothes and wandered through the corridors of the dormitory area, leisurely heading towards the cafeteria.

I happened to meet Maxi on the road, and as soon as he saw me, he suddenly pulled me over, looked around nervously, and then said to me mysteriously, "Follow me." ”

I shrugged, "What's the show?" I thought to myself, and then I turned left and right, and entered a tattered room in the corner, without even a door, and sure enough, Marx and Loki were also here. Seeing that everyone was here, Maxi couldn't hide his excitement and said to us, "I have discovered a big secret! ”

"Secret?" No one paid any attention to him, only Marx took over the topic.

"Did you find out? The reason why we can retain the memories of the past is through some kind of device! ”

Everyone was silent, Rocky rolled his eyes, Marx smiled awkwardly, and continued: "Probably...... Maybe we can't think of any other way to do the same thing for the time being......"

"Don't believe me! I found its controls! Maxi said indignantly when he saw our reaction.

"You found out?" It's really a valuable message, "Where?" Gregory asked, incredulously.

"Right at the base of our ears!" Maxi hurriedly said: "It's very small, and it's mainly built under our skin, and you can't find it without looking closely!" The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his brows fluttered, and as he spoke, he hurriedly pointed out to us. Right in the back of your ears, try to press it!" He added.

We followed the part that Maxi was pointing at, touched it near the base of the ear, and sure enough, there was an area that we didn't feel! I hurriedly tried to press it, and even though I heard a soft "click", I immediately concluded that it was not a physical sound! Definitely a mechanical touch. When I followed that position and pressed it again, a glowing panel suddenly appeared in front of me!

"Sure enough...... There is something. I whispered.

Looking at the reactions of the others, they all seemed to find out, and at this time Loki sighed and said, "It is actually the control of the sensory nerves that directly rewrites our visual perception to generate the control panel...... It's an incredible technology. ”

Maxi became even more excited, "That's right, right?" It's remarkable......"

"That means no one else can see it but ourselves, right?" Gregory interrupted Maxi and asked Loki.

"Theoretically, that'......" Loki took a deep breath, "After all, I've only been exposed to this technology when I'm outside, but I haven't heard of it. He turned to look at us again: "But I believe that if its designers wanted to see what we did, it was entirely possible." He said.

"Either way, at least we now have a useful means of managing our memories of the past." Maxi smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Maxi." ”

"You kid is pretty reliable sometimes." I encouraged him too.

Needless to say, Maxi, a boy who shines brightly when he gives a little sunshine, quickly walked out of the loss of being ignored by everyone, and began to sell himself and boast again.

This scene plunged me into another memory, and I decided that it was necessary to share it here with my old comrades-in-arms who were in the same situation:

"What we're going through now may be the result of the supervisor's planning." I said.

"Why are you so sure?" Loki was the first to question: "All we saw at the time was Angela. ”

I shrugged, "I can't give you a convincing explanation, but I'd rather believe it than not, and if you have the opportunity to learn more later, don't forget what I just said." ”

"yes, I see." Marx said: "We must pay more attention. ”

Loki looked even more disturbing, he didn't speak, just left a very uncomfortable look. "Okay everyone, if there is nothing else, let's get to work as soon as possible." Loki said to us, "Leave with a staggered departure and don't arouse unnecessary suspicion." ”

We nodded in unison, and left the cramped old storage room in a different order. As usual, meals, work.

"Ahh

Outside the door of the containment unit of the Punishment Bird (Designation: O-02-56), Parker, who had just finished his work, was covering his head and walking towards us with a resentful expression, "This little bird pecks at people. ”

Work Result: Poor. Sure enough, this guy was so reckless that he could even do his job of discerning the birds. I sighed helplessly, "Yui, you go and demonstrate it to him again." ”

"Well, good senpai." Yui agreed, and soon re-entered the containment unit, and I beckoned Parker to the porthole in front of the door, "Look at it, learn more." ”

Parker looked unconvinced, "It's just a little bird, what's there to worry about." ”

"Poof......

"Senior, what are you laughing at?" Parker asked, puzzled and annoyed.

"Nothing." I grumbled and pointed to the door of the containment unit, "Everything in here is a monster, and that 'little bird' is no exception. The nickname 'Punishment Bird' was not the whimsy of some Intelligence Department employee. ”

"'Punishment Bird'...... Punish people with that little mouth of his? Parker said jokingly.

I ignored him, just told him to concentrate on Yui's work. Admittedly, if only a cursory look at the outside, the Punishment Bird does not look like an abominable monster, but rather makes it look very cute due to its snow-white feathers, pale blue beak and petite body. Because it was so small, the size of a ball of yarn forced the people to place a dead log in the containment unit for the bird to settle on in case they accidentally stepped on it.

However, this is not intended to protect the birds, but rather to protect the staff who enter their containment unit.

Work Result: Excellent. Yui wears a punishment bird ornament around her neck and is proudly showing off to Parker.

"It's your turn." I think Parker said, he nodded, perhaps it was the stimulation of Yui's ornaments, he seemed to be extra motivated this time, copying the clipboard, and striding into the containment unit.

Unfortunately, not long after Parker started work, there was a sudden sound in the hallway, and the company sounded a first-level alarm. "Eighty percent is a 'test.'" As I spoke, I pulled out my weapon from behind my back and quickly ordered Yui to be on guard.

The civilian who passed by immediately took out his pistol and slowly moved closer to us, and the atmosphere gradually became depressed.

"Hahaha...... Hahaha! Uhhh ”

Suddenly, there was a strange and oozing laughter in the hallway, and everyone instantly tensed, "This is the blood-red dawn test. I said.

"Damn it...... What the hell is laughing! A civilian swished.

"Wow!"

"Mom!" Suddenly, a seeping clown face appeared in front of the guy, and the poor guy was defenseless, and was so frightened that he fainted on the spot, and the corners of his mouth were foaming at the mouth from time to time.

"That guy is here!" Yui shouted as she pointed to the half-human-tall "Joker" who suddenly appeared in the hallway. After successfully scaring a poor ghost, the "Joker" moved on to the next target, and his clown, who didn't know whether it was made of cloth or blood, looked at the punishment bird's containment unit with a smile on its face, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Shoot!" As soon as another quick-eyed civilian raised his pistol, the "clown" with a big head and a doll-like head suddenly disappeared from his field of vision.

"Where's the damn thing?!" The impotent and furious civil servants howled senselessly, holding guns and pointing around, looking even more comical than the "clown".

"There it is! At the door of the containment unit! This time, Yui spotted the cunning imp first, and at the same time, she immediately manipulated the Feather of Glory and fired it at the "Joker".

But the guy was easily dodged.

The other civilians who spotted the clown also opened fire, but they were all dodged by the clown, as if the weapons were just toys that didn't fire anything at all.

"Damn he's teasing us!"

"It's stealing the separate pe-box of the Punishment Bird!"

"Damn it, you can't hit it!"

“……”

Seeing such a chaotic scene, I sighed slightly, and prepared to pull out another knife with my right hand, "Sure enough, it's still ......"

"Hit!!"

The clerical shout of joy suddenly caught my attention, and I looked as far as I could see, and a golden feather was deeply inserted into the "clown's" smiling face, followed by a second and a third, and quickly cut off the "clown's" pencil-thick legs.

"Now is the time! Fire! ”

The imp, who lost his ability to teleport, was soon killed in the sound of gunfire, and was beaten into a puddle of meat sauce, and the crisis was resolved.

People breathed a sigh of relief, "Awesome, Control." The civilians of the Ministry of Intelligence gave Yui a thumbs up, "It's really amazing." They complimented.

In the face of these flying words, Yui looked a little shy, just lowered her head and kept thanking.

At this time, Parker finished his work and was startled by a puddle of meat sauce in front of the door, "What are you guys doing?" He asked, confused.

"Your control department is really good."

This sudden compliment made Parker even more confused, "Not bad? What's good, what's ......"

"Oh, the door isn't closed!" Parker suddenly came to his senses, only to find that the bird had followed him out of the containment unit and into the hallway.

"Don't, don't peck me!" Parker hurriedly covered his head and ran away.

The civilian staff looked very relaxed, "It's a small point again, watch me suppress it back." As he spoke, he raised his gun.

"Stop!"

I tried to warn him, but it was too late, and a bullet struck the Punishment Bird in the belly impartially—the bare piece of flesh that was bright red without a coat.

"Whew!!"

With a loud roar, the plush snow-white body of the punishment bird quickly turned scarlet, and a terrible jaw suddenly burst out of the bare piece of flesh in its belly, tearing the poor clerk to pieces in an instant, and we didn't even have time to hear a howl.

After eliminating the offender, the bird retracted its jaw, turned back to its snow-white appearance, and swaggered back to the containment unit.

Parker and Yuileng stayed where they were, not speaking for a long time.
