Steel steam and flame

"Lost." Croni walked around outside before going back. He didn't know why he did this. Probably because he didn't want others to know, he followed the man for less than five minutes and was completely thrown away. He returned to the temporary base after more than half an hour. After seeing Patrick, he said this.

Patrick looked matter-of-fact and didn't show much surprise. There was also a kind of unexplained contemplation in his expression.

"Occam has received the information and approximate locations of several reinforcements. When they come back, you can just summarize them as soon as possible." Patrick replied later, without any intention of blaming. From the moment a man enters the other party's room, he can naturally hide his face in the light and shadow without being discovered. This hiding method alone is enough to arouse his vigilance.

But it was just vigilance. Patrick was very confident in himself. After all, the knight squire assessment made him know that there were people better than him, but only a small part of them. He himself is also a group of people who stand at the top.

At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, after Cassia bought breakfast from a street vendor to fill her stomach, she followed Wimmer's request and borrowed a communicator to contact him. The agreed place has changed as expected, so be careful about the results of your actions. It is understandable that the other party does not have absolute trust in you.

It took a few minutes for Cassia to find the restaurant Wimmer was talking about. It was almost breakfast time, and there were less than ten people inside. The sound wave detection scanned the surroundings dozens of times when Cassia approached here. Cassia had an accurate map in her mind about who was hiding and where.

Pretending not to know who Wimmer was, Cassia pretended to look around, and then went to the store to buy breakfast. When he turned around to sit down, Weimer, who looked like a physical education teacher in school, waved.

"Mr. Soriato?"

Cassia sat across from Weimer, carefully looked at this man in his thirties or forties, and nodded: "I heard that the king will send reinforcements, and I have always wanted to see you."

Weimer held his chin and pursed his lips, seeming to be thinking about what Cassia meant by saying this: "Now that Mr. Soriato is here, you should know the questions not only in my mind, but also in the minds of my superiors, right? Because I really can't think clearly. I won't hide it here. Last night, various departments jointly investigated the information about you and sent over the photos of the most likely people. But they are all related to Mr. Soriato. Consistent. Here, I hope you can answer the questions in our hearts.

"As long as you know that we will not become enemies, we will always be friends. It is a bit irresponsible to say this. You regard the rebel forces as my enemies, and I also have reasons to destroy their ambitions." Cassia only said Having said this, although Wimmer had a lot to say, he still didn't ask in the end. He knew it was impossible to get an answer.

The topic soon came to those information and real-time updated maps, and Wimmer appeared to be very cautious about the topic. This information is of great significance and must be absolutely correct. A single mistake may lead an army to a dead end.

"Can you tell me the specific detection method?" Wimmer asked after listening to Cassia's description, "If there is special high-quality equipment, we are willing to spend a lot of money to buy it directly."

Seeing Cassia shaking her head, Weimer thought that the conditions were not enough. And in his impression, this kind of work was probably scanned by some kind of special equipment. So the words continued: "Mr. Soriato, you can also put forward your own conditions, and I will report them to you. As long as they are reasonable, the higher ups will satisfy you."

"No need, there is no equipment, everything is determined by eyes. This is safer than machines." Cassia ignored Wimmer's expression, "I will meet you this time, and I also want to bring you practical experience." Confirm each important information on the map one by one. You have doubts about me. I am very clear about this. There is no way. We can only try our best to trust each other, and confirming the correctness of the map can promote this trust. the production of.”

"Mr. Weimer, you can discuss this with your people. I am always available here. Of course, the chosen people should be as strong as possible. This is not an ordinary trip. I have a way to bring them inside important places on the map. , to ensure that the information is accurate. But these must be based on a certain degree of strength. You should be very clear about what trouble the people you hired have encountered."

Seeing that Weimer was still thinking, Cassia continued to say that these were his experiences in dealing with imperial surgeons: "Harrington has always been under the surveillance of the enemy. You know this in your heart, but here is a reminder. , please believe this information. In addition, Mr. Weimer, it is best to fully protect the communication equipment you use. It is best to change the contact method to unilateral, or to borrow a communicator in a hotel store for contact. The other party is likely to have the ability to track signals. As for perception, I wonder if Mr. Wimmer has heard of temperature sensing ability? A development of surgery."

Wimmer came back from his thoughts and nodded.

"There may be more than one person on the other side who has this ability. So I personally think, Mr. Wimmer, you'd better concentrate on your task, which is to determine the accuracy of the map information. Please don't do anything else. A little idea. You probably have the idea of ​​using the other party to know the movements of the mercenaries to lure the other party into a trap."

Cassia is very sure of this, so there is no need to wait for Wimmer to nod: "It will fail, and the probability is absolutely 100%. I can guarantee this. Maybe these words can't make you feel anything, so let's put it this way .”

As he spoke, Cassia cleared a clean space on the table between the two, dipped her fingers in some water, and drew a brief diagram of the restaurant and several surrounding shops.

"Including you, Mr. Wimmer, there are six people in total." Cassia smiled at Wimmer, who immediately showed vigilance on his face, and motioned for him to relax, "One here, one here, two over there, and the rest One is here." Cassia pointed out five points on the simple diagram, "It should be about the same as what I said, Mr. Wimmer."

Having to nod, Weimer had a solemn look on his face, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became stiffer.

"I said that the map was observed with my eyes. It's not without evidence. This can be regarded as one. It is also for this reason why I don't suggest that you set up traps to deal with the rebels, but focus on the original mission. . The other party’s ability can completely expose your actions within a certain radius. So completing the task early and leaving here is the safest and safest way."

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Cassia said, "Please think carefully about what I just said."

Weimer shook his head, and then nodded, as if he had thought for a long time: "Mr. Soriato, this is definitely not your real name, but that is not important. What I want to say is that you are a member of the empire. People, right?"

Without admitting or denying, Cassia smiled slightly.

"In this case, there is no need to think about it. If time permits, after breakfast, I would like to ask Mr. Soriato to take me to confirm this information one by one. It is indeed the same as you said, verifying that the information is correct. The most important thing right now.”
