Life Copy Game

Several speeding black cars parked on the side of the road.

"Minister, this is the box you are going to bring."

A young man wearing a casual plaid shirt got off the black car at the front, carrying a small black suitcase in his hand.

"Thank you, wait a minute..."

At this moment, Yin Xiya was gathering her fluffy brown-blonde hair with both hands, and then tied it loosely with a rubber band, hanging down her back.

After she finished what she was doing, she reached out and took the suitcase that was handed to her, "Thank you for your hard work."

"it's okay no problem,"

The young man waved his hands quickly, then looked at the isolation belt behind Yin Xiya, "Minister, is it this time?"

"C-level pollution monster, take precautions when entering,"

Yin Xiya said quickly, then she reached out and patted the young man on the shoulder, "This time the problem is more serious, please pay attention to safety."

"good."

The young man glanced nervously at the back of the corridor, then looked back at the other members who were getting out of the car behind him, and waved, "Put on your protective equipment. Come in with a few people and follow me. Leave two at the door to guard the isolation zone." ”

Yin Xiya turned sideways and let the people from the Pollution Cleanup Department pass through the laser isolation zone.

Then she raised her bracelet and flipped through the information on it, moving forward and turning into another alley.

In this alley, a sky blue driverless taxi was parked.

Yin Xiya opened the back door and got in, but He Ao was already sitting in the back seat of the taxi.

As more passers-by gathered around, He Ao did not continue to guard the alley. Instead, he took Jia Qian to take an unmanned taxi in the alley and waited for Yin Xiya to finish arranging things.

"This is a device with an account, as well as iris contact lenses and palm print gloves to verify identity. Once the black market level exceeds level 1, regular biometric verification will be required."

Yin Xiya closed the car door and handed the suitcase in her hand to He Ao. She pressed her hand on the suitcase and unlocked the suitcase. "This account is a two-level account. The verification frequency is once a week. I just verified it yesterday." , the next verification should be five days later.”

"sorry to bother you."

He Ao took the suitcase and looked at Yin Xiya, "What are you going to do next?"

After being attacked twice in a row, Yin Xiya's current condition is not very optimistic.

"Judging from the current situation, C-level pollution monsters and drones are acting together, which proves that these monsters are most likely being 'raised' by people.

"To be able to raise C-level pollution monsters, the people behind the scenes have either been lurking in St. John City for a long time, or they have found a way to bypass the inspection of the city defense army and brought the pollution monsters from other cities. The latter possibility is more likely Small, so I prefer the former. The water in St. John City may be a little deeper than I thought.”

Yin Xiya said slowly,

"I may have to stay in the pollution cleanup department building in St. John City for a while. The director is currently in St. Jonn City. He is a B-level strongman. After Nighthawk died, there was no person in charge in St. Jonn City. He should stay in charge until St. John City stabilizes before leaving. "

"He came to St. John City for Nighthawk?"

Ho asked.

"Yes,"

Yin Xiya nodded, "There are rumors that the director has always been very optimistic about Nighthawk. Nighthawk is the youngest city person in charge of the Pollution Cleanup Department and was promoted by the director.

"It is said that after Nighthawk injured the investigation team, he personally came to arrest Nighthawk in order to protect Nighthawk. However, for some unknown reason, he finally chose to kill Nighthawk when he found Nighthawk. This It is also one of the doubts about nightjar eucalyptus.

"There are rumors that Nighthawk went completely crazy in the end, forcing the director to kill him. There are also rumors that Nighthawk was already dead when the director found him. The investigation team received the authorization from the council to The authority of the Cleanup Department of the Pollution Cleanup Department that was maintained was forcibly written to be killed by the director.”

"Anyway,"

He Ao glanced at Yin Xiya, "Judging from this process, whether it was intentional or coincidence, Nighthawk remained 'silent' in the end."

"Yes."

Yin Xiya nodded.

This was one of the reasons she became suspicious and began privately investigating the nightjar eucalyptus.

"Can that 'Director' guarantee your safety?"

He Ao asked in a low voice.

No matter whether the 'director' Yin Xiya said is really optimistic about Nighthawk, at least he who lifted Nighthawk with one hand should have a relatively in-depth understanding of Nighthawk. Even Yin Xiya can see the problems that he may not see. Not coming out.

But judging from the facts that have happened now, throughout the whole incident, he did not express any opinions on the doubts about Nighthawk, nor did he send anyone to further investigate and reveal the deeper truth.

This behavior itself is a kind of "tacit consent" to the investigation team's behavior and the final investigation report.

This may be due to the balance of interests, or it may be due to the game played by the higher-ups of the Pollution Cleanup Department, but the final result is that he and the senior officials of the Pollution Cleanup Department reached a unified opinion, concluding Nighthawk's 'crime' .

Therefore, from his position, he probably prefers not to allow further investigation of Nighthawk Eucalyptus.

And Yin Xiya's current 'murder disaster' was caused by her private investigation of Nighthawk Eucalyptus.

Whether or not to protect Yin Xiya at this time depends on the director's "magnanimity" and whether there is an "objective necessity" to protect Yin Xiya.

He Ao didn't understand the character of this 'director' or the internal power structure of the Pollution Cleanup Department, so he asked this question.

This question seems to be asking ‘can it be done’, but is actually asking ‘will it be done’.

"Can,"

Yin Xiya naturally heard the deeper meaning of He Ao's words. She first answered He Ao's question, and then further explained,

"Currently, another colleague and I have been transferred to take over the Nighthawk affairs. According to the director's plan, the two of us should take over the original Nighthawk's work, so I am now half in charge here. people.

"The people who are hiding behind the scenes and raising pollution monsters and sending monsters to attack and kill me are actually provoking the pollution cleanup department.

“So in order to maintain the deterrent effect of the Pollution Cleanup Department, the director will definitely provide me with protection.

"Although he can't follow me and protect me when I'm running around, as long as I return to the Pollution Cleanup Department and stay well, he will definitely not let the pollution monster get close to the Pollution Cleanup Department.

"Not to mention there are so many staff in the Pollution Cleanup Division."

Having said this, she took a breath and continued, "And judging from my observation of the director, he is very tolerant. As long as I hide obediently back to the Pollution Cleanup Department, I won't go out to investigate the night in public." Eagle Eucalyptus, he doesn't care what I have done before.

"Similarly, these people who raise pollution monsters want to kill me because I am investigating the nightjar eucalyptus.

"But I haven't actually investigated any particularly useful clues now, so as long as I return to the Pollution Cleanup Department at this time, they are unlikely to break into the Pollution Cleanup Department for me."

"Sister, it turns out you are not that stupid."

Jia Qian, who was sitting in the front row and chewing gum, suddenly turned around and looked at Yin Xiya with her little head.

"Do you think your sister is stupid?"

Yin Xiya raised her eyebrows and reached out to rub Jia Qian's little head.

Then she realized something, lowered her head and pinched Jia Qian's face, "Do you understand what we are talking about?"

"I don't quite understand."

Jia Qian's elastic little cheeks were flattened by Yin Xiya. She stretched out her little hand and grabbed Yin Xiya's palm, "But after listening to you talk a lot, it seems to make sense."

Yin Xiya found that this little girl's strength was surprisingly strong. Although it was far from the physical fitness of a D-class transcendent like her, it was already stronger than that of an ordinary adult.

She closed her hands and rubbed Jia Qian's little face, "Weird."

Then she sat back in the back seat, looked at He Ao, and continued,

"When this wave of rumors is over, I will continue to investigate along the previous clues. Just be careful..."

"Give me the clues you have now."

Sitting next to her, He Ao, who had been listening quietly to his story, suddenly said.

"ah?"

Yin Xiya was stunned for a moment and almost didn't realize what He Ao's words meant. Then she lowered her head and looked at He Ao, "Old sir, this is a whirlpool..."

The person who attacked and killed her has sent two C-class to kill her so far. Although the two C-class were solved by the old gentleman in front of her, if the other party can send two, they can naturally send more. many.

Unlike her, who could still rely on the Pollution Cleanup Department as a buffer, this old man seemed to be alone, with a young granddaughter by his side.

"What the two of us are facing may be the same thing,"

He Ao shook his head, and his hand touched the suitcase with stars on the cushion, "I am now in the center of the whirlpool. I have taken over the clues of your investigation, and maybe I can find and unravel the truth more quickly. clues, and you also gave me your knife, which is a good knife and can help me deal with more environments. "

"you······"

Yin Xiya opened her mouth, but in the end she was unable to pronounce the next syllable. She looked at the suitcase next to He Ao, and finally slowly closed her lips.

Just now, she persuaded He Ao to accept the butterfly knife, but now the knife became the point where He Ao persuaded her to give clues.

She actually knew He Ao's current situation very well, and she also knew that He Ao was right. If they were really facing the same thing, He Ao would definitely speed up the investigation after getting her effective clues.

"You don't necessarily need to give up the investigation completely temporarily,"

He Ao continued, "When you are in the Pollution Cleanup Department, you can also use the resources of the Pollution Cleanup Department to collect information through online connections. When I am outside, I can use this information to conduct further investigations offline. This will help me in my investigation." It’s also beneficial to have your own pieces.”

In this case, Yin Xia became He Ao's remote assistant. With the influence of the Pollution Cleanup Department, she could obtain a lot of information from the St. John City Police Department and even the FBI that He Ao could not obtain through normal means.

Yin Xiya stared at He Ao. It was not that she didn't believe in He Ao. After getting along with him for these two days, she had clearly found that this old gentleman was a reliable 'partner'.

She just didn't want to see He Ao take the risk that she should have taken.

"The Director of the Pollution Cleanup Department cannot stay in St. John City forever, and you can't really stop investigating this case forever,"

He Ao turned his head and looked at Yin Xiya. His other hand was leaning on a cane and resting on the floor of the taxi. "Do you want to investigate the truth, or do you just enjoy the thrill of adventure?"

Yin Xiya has almost no real allies now. The only reliable and powerful possible community of interests is He Ao. With her D-level strength alone, there is no help. It is almost impossible to investigate the truth behind Nighthawk Eucalyptus. .

In other words, without He Ao's help, she has been walking on a repetitive dead end.

From her point of view, if she cooperates with He Ao and uses the power He Ao has shown so far, she has hope of really investigating the truth.

She stared blankly at He Ao in front of her, at the old but upright figure, at the gray hair, and at the calm and serious face.

At a certain moment, she seemed to be back when she was still young, sitting next to her grandfather, listening to him kindly pointing out the future direction for her.

Finally, she nodded slightly, "Okay."

Like ice cubes floating on the water breaking into pieces and blending into the silent water.

At this moment, some of the constraints that had been holding her back disappeared.

She took a deep breath and began to sort out the current problems.

"Those investigative materials are on my own personal computer. I do not store them in the cloud. I may not be able to send them to you until I go back. I have already contacted my friends at the St. John City Police Department about your son's case information. He hasn’t replied yet, it might be later.”

"good,"

He Ao nodded. He twisted his wrist and raised his right hand. "I will send you a private cloud software. You can just send the data to this software."

This is private cloud software developed by Eve, specially used to transmit confidential information.

"Um!"

Yin Xiya nodded. She opened the chat box and chose to receive and install the software.

"Sister, I feel like you have changed."

Jia Qian, who was lying in the passenger seat, looked at Yin Xiya and blinked.

"How has it become?"

Yin Xiya smiled, put down the bracelet, stretched out her hand, and wanted to pinch Jia Qian's face as usual, but Jia Qian stepped back to avoid it.

The entire vehicle shook due to the impact of the little girl.

"That's right," Jia Qian thought for a moment, "she seems to be more mature."

"Um,"

Yin Xiya, who had caught the opportunity, was not angry. She smiled and straightened her hair that was messed up by leaning forward, "I figured out something and embraced the world."

"Is this a good thing?"

Jia Xi blinked.

"Should it count?"

Yin Xiya sat up straight. She looked at He Ao beside her and then looked at the street outside the window. She breathed a long sigh of relief and showed a shallow smile.

She didn't like the shadows outside the window. In the past, she relied on intuition and sensibility to try to change these shadows, just like the fantasist who imagined the windmill as a giant and charged with a stick, thinking he was a knight.

She is not very afraid of death, she just wants to die in this fight.

But now, after He Ao's words, she chose to accept these shadows and tried to change them with a rational attitude.

She knew that she was still doing the stupid thing of waving a wooden stick at the windmill, but she no longer charged blindly, but began to systematically find her partners to cooperate, and really wanted to kill this windmill.

She started to really look like a 'knight'.

"Old sir, let me first arrange for the pollution monsters over there to be dealt with."

After briefly calming down, she opened the car door and said to He Ao.

"Wait a moment."

This time, He Ao stopped her.

She looked at He Ao doubtfully, at this resolute and calm old man.

He Ao raised his right hand that was on the suitcase, stretched out his hand to her, and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation."

Yin Xiya stared at the face that had been withered by the years, also stretched out her hand, held it together, and smiled,

“A pleasure to work with.”

The sun walked directly above the gap in the tall building, and the golden sunlight passed through the narrow gap and shone in this dark corner.

The warm radiance passed through the sunroof of the car roof, passed between the two people's cheeks, and sprinkled on the hands that were tightly held together.
