She couldn't tell, and she couldn't remember, how chaotic it was at that time.

If you happen to be alone at the same time, sitting by the porthole of a permanent aircraft on the straggler, and you are so dazed, holding up a cup of tea of some kind and deliberately lifting the small but useful IT, looking out, looking down, you will definitely see a meandering and not majestic stream of water through the rainforest, but it will also completely attract your attention. And when you take the telescope away, you will sigh at how small it is.

Compared with the vast territory of the entire Bitfer Country, the research institute that was located on the bank of the Misidongbi River, under the cover of the forest leaves, which had seemed to be huge, became as small as sand, not to mention a training room in the "sand" research institute.

"Get up!" The malevolent, masked man kicked the child in front of him who had fallen to the ground.

"No. 43 Yu Qingyue, CQC assessment results, failed!" He had a playful look on his face that he couldn't even hide with a hood.

Hearing this, the surrounding onlookers began to laugh. "Look at her embarrassed look! Live like a raccoon! One of them shouted this with sarcasm on his face, and he burst out laughing along with his companions.

The child who fell on his side reacted for more than ten seconds before he swayed back to his feet. She shook the two cat ears on her head, covered her waist and abdomen with her hands, and a few strands of blood flowed from between her fingers. A few meters in front of her, a canine modified human who was a head taller than her, the blood stains on the knife held in his right hand were obviously from the same owner as the cat child's fingertips.

She raised her head and glared at the opponent in front of her, her blue and green pupils shining with such a murderous and pitiful light. She bared her teeth, and it wasn't just the credit of anger. Her silver-gray ears had been dusted by the blow she had just done, making her look more like a gray cat.

"It's not fair!" The fur of the kitten in her heart stood on end, and it looked like it had doubled in size in an instant. She felt the sound come out of her mouth. "I don't know how much more advanced this guy is than I am! He can also use a saber! But I'm barehanded!"

As soon as she stood firm, she pounced like a tiger before she could fully recover completely. She had already ignored the trainer's rule that "genetically modified weapons are not allowed in the CQC assessment", and her claws spread out from all five fingers.

It's ironic, they themselves are their weapons!

Her opponent was turning away triumphantly, not expecting that this little thing, who had just been a head lower than herself, would dare to fight back.

No one reacted, not even himself. It was when he was hit hard and the back of his neck was splashing blood, and the big man was still doing nothing—he had no chance. A child of this size can be trained to be quite agile, but still too bulky compared to her.

But a trainer is a trainer after all, and the examiner from the federal special forces is really extraordinary, and his reaction is different from ordinary people after all. I saw that he immediately raised the rifle in his hand, pointed it at her, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

A series of thuds followed, mixed with firelight, the sound of bolts colliding, and the ping-pong of bullet casings falling to the ground.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Ahh She screamed and opened her eyes.

She could hear her own heartbeat clearly.

She felt her heart pound out of her chest.

All she heard was a commotion around her.

After a while, she finally got out of the confusion. She rubbed her eyes and shook her head, trying to get herself out of the horrible dream—or memory—as quickly as possible.

"Aoko?" A familiar voice evokes in the bedroom.

Aoko looked around and made sure she was sitting up on a single bed. She felt a stuffy heat in her tail. She knew it was thanks to the fact that it had been curled up under the covers all night.

"Are you alright?" A hand shook in front of her eyes.

Qingzi was verbose for a moment and came back to her senses.

"It's all right," she smiled, with a pang of anguish, "I've dreamed of the past." ”

The boy nodded silently, stretched out his left hand, and touched the light switch. The blinding incandescent light suddenly lit up, and Qingzi couldn't help but raise her arm to block her eyes.

"Get up," he said, his face a little pleased, "I have to be the first to arrive at school today!" ”

"Of course," Aoko replied with a wicked grin, "Roll them up!" ”

The early morning sun had not yet set out, and when I looked up through the window, the sky was full of a faint blue. Looking down, two or three vehicles passed by the ice from time to time.

Today, as predicted by the famous physicist named Stephen Hawking, the number of sunspots is beginning to decline significantly. In the beginning of the Xiaoice period on the earth, even the city of Qilcaro, a city in the south of the country, where snow is usually not seen, at the beginning of March, there will still be solid ice and snow scattered everywhere people can see everywhere.

At this time, the electronic watch tied to Aoko's right wrist was showing the words "6:02". In just ten minutes, the two had already eaten breakfast, packed everything, and stood in front of the house ready to lock the door.

"Xiaoyu, you lock the door, I'll call the elevator." Aoko said as she ran to the elevator, her canvas bag jumping around behind her with the strap of her satchel not short enough.

"Okay." The little guy turned around and inserted the key into the keyhole.

Nowadays, people in big cities like Qiercarlo, especially those who live in "advanced" supertall buildings, mostly "advocate" the use of electronic door locks such as combination locks and fingerprint locks. "In fact, these electronic door locks may not be as reliable as mechanical door locks, but their own curiosity and vanity are at work, so that they are "keen to experience 'new things'." The little man locked the security door from the outside and couldn't help but think.

Today's elevator was extraordinarily abnormal, and the two of them waited for five minutes, and they didn't wait for that "ding".

"Take the stairs." Xiao Wei shook his head and pressed the wrench of the iron door in the stairwell, "This elevator is really speechless. ”

"I feel the same way." Aoko agreed. In the mornings of the last ten days, most of the two appeared on the first floor through the exit of the stairwell.

It was so early that even the school bus driver was still asleep; It was so late that even the ice and snow on the asphalt road were crushed.

Almost everyone in the Dagger-10 community owns a private car, as if they deliberately wanted to make the underground parking lot of the community lose face, and had to let the vehicles occupy both sides of the road, forming two "magnificent city walls". This adds fuel to the fire of the already narrow residential lanes, leaving only a pitifully "wide" road separated by a yellow line in the middle. Some vehicles even go over curbs and take up sidewalks, demonstrating their "excellent" off-road capabilities.

Just behind the black masonry that made up the city wall, two figures flashed, one of which had the shape of a cat's ear faintly visible on the top of its head.

The residence is about 1.6 kilometers away from the school, and it is easy for two children who grew up at the Misitfu Institute to carry a schoolbag weighing a few pounds and run such a distance in one go. They weren't even out of breath as they ran all the way to the school gates.

"What a wonderful day!" Xiaowei took the lead in completing face recognition and successfully stepped into the school gate.

"No one can get to school at this time." Aoko looked at the "6:11" on her wrist and said confidently.

The two of them went one after the other, slowing down and trotting instead. When you enter the school gate, if you go in the direction you are facing, you will see the playground covered with a layer of snow. The shrubs along the road are also a little white, and they do not look bald under the effect of genetic modification, and there is still a little green under the snow.

The two turned to the right and pushed the door into the school building. The unseen light seemed to confirm their confident suspicions.

Aoko knocked on the light switch in the hallway on the side of the stairs as she passed by. Although the light is actually dispensable to her, it may be a savior for her later classmates to avoid stumbling over herself in the darkness.

The two of them went up one floor, walked past an empty classroom, and stopped in front of the second, seemingly unattended wooden door.

"Ladies first?" The little man asked, got out of the way, and made a "please" gesture.

Aoko shook her head, "Do you really think this is infiltration training?" She muttered, but without hesitation, she pushed the door open.

According to common sense, what she should have seen at this time was a chair placed at the left end of the large blackboard at the other end of the classroom. But today doesn't seem to be an ordinary day.

A classmate who had never met before was standing on the chair, wiping the blackboard with the towel he was holding.

But this is not the most unusual. What's even more strange is that the classmate turned his head with a pair of black cat ears on his head and said to them, "Good morning! ”
