Steel steam and flame

"Maybe." Cassia thought about what it would look like after the operation started, and believed that in many cases it would be the same as what Hessler said, "But being able to meet the passing line for screening means that these people have the potential we need. This We all see the richness of resources in this small country, and if we can meet the standards here, we can treat them as their own."

"There is nothing wrong with this understanding." I agreed with Cassia's words. "During this period, I deliberately went to understand the process of becoming a surgeon in a small country. They almost all go through channels in the dark world. And the businessmen who do business are ostensibly local People, but behind them are the shadows of the three giant countries. The materials and methods used can only be called the cheapest, but the cost is much higher than within the empire. In addition, as for what we are about to do, here Let me tell you some bad news first."

Cassia did not answer, waiting for Hessler's words.

"We are definitely not the only ones doing this kind of thing. You should have thought about it a long time ago. What I want to say is that the duration and extent of other people's involvement in this kind of thing are much deeper than you and I expected. After these three months of After collecting and investigating, I can confirm that there are specialized institutions doing this kind of thing in this small country. And most of these institutions have deep connections with businesses in the dark world that perform surgeries for ordinary people."

"While earning the fees for the surgery, you can also create a rough profile of the people who have undergone the surgery, and then follow up and investigate, make screenings, and find some talented people to gather for your own power?"

"It seems that you know very well." Hessler said with a matter-of-fact tone, "I remember that among the students of each military school, there will be some war orphans, or foreigners who were raised by the big families themselves, right? The nature is probably The same, but the former starts from an early age and discovers truly talented people. It is only after a professional team conducts detailed analysis and verification of many data samples that they can find such people. In the latter, almost all of them are adults. , they are either born as mercenaries and know the way of surgery, or they are in the army, or they are small nobles, etc. They have some financial reserves, so to speak. These people are the main customers, and the control of surgery in a small country is better than that in an empire. It’s a lot looser on the inside, so it’s a lot easier to be an operator.”

"So the so-called bad news is that soon after, we will be targeted by the screening organization you mentioned?" Cassia brought the topic to the beginning.

"That's one point. Because if our actions were discovered, it would be like walking directly to the main entrance to steal things from their breeding grounds at night with a bright flashlight. Of course, this is the worst case scenario I predicted. Because absorption has the ability Every force is doing it. Another point, that is to say, the personnel information we have at this stage is very likely to have been left after being screened. However, it does not rule out that the corresponding time has not yet been carried out. Screening." So careful was he in this work that Hessler spent the rest of the three months exercising on it. Because both Waters and Delia were busy working on corresponding tasks, the business did not expand significantly, and there were almost no problems that needed him to solve, which left a lot of time.

"In short, the current situation is roughly like this. The specific details will not be known until we actually go to each destination."

"I'm already on my way back, and I can get to you in another day." Cassia replied, "We will set off in a few days, and the conversation with Waters and the others shouldn't take long."

After the contact was lost, Kasia continued to drive and returned to his residence at about 9 a.m. the next morning. After sending a message to Adolf, Cassia briefly talked about the laboratory base and briefly mentioned the fact that Professor Kemosier wrote a letter of recommendation for himself. It was impossible for Adolf not to grasp this. After a few simple words, he said again, "Mr. Trivikan and I will do the rest," and he cut off the contact.

Without taking any rest after coming back, Cassia continued her unfinished study at the laboratory base. Now that freedom and space are no longer restricted, the practice of sound waves can be strengthened again.

The next morning, Cassia went to Hessler's residence and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon after reading the compiled information. Then the two went to the factory together to say goodbye to Winifer and April.

He didn't say any specific plans for the future, but he just said that he would choose to go to a large country and live a stable and peaceful life with a new identity and the money he has in hand. Both of them voluntarily gave up their identity as mechanics. During this period, the title of mechanic brought not only money and fame, but also unexpected dangers.

They took a train and left in the evening. Winifer and April left no contact information. After that, on the mainland, Cassia and the others understood that if they wanted to meet again, it would no longer be a matter of luck. .

However, Waters and Delya did not feel relaxed because of their departure. On the contrary, they became even busier. Many technical studies are at a critical moment. Winifer and April are like teachers who have taught them all the knowledge. How much the students can remember and master will depend on the next one or two months. will be very important.

"Things here also take such a long time. There are currently no problems in the Tushini area." Delya also explained that Cassia did not intervene.

In the next two or three days, Cassia, Delya, and Hessler held several short meetings in succession to analyze all the current situations of the forces one by one. After a simple plan, they each plunged into their own affairs. in things.

Three days after that, it happened to be Monday of the week. Cassia and Hessler packed their simple luggage, completed various transfer and exit procedures like ordinary people, and started the first step of the plan.

"Are you a little anxious?" On the train, Cassia looked away from the window and asked Hessler.

Hessler opened his eyes and shook his head: "I think it's been long enough. In the Webley family, if something or a task requires specific candidates and stronger members, when this matter is The managers within the family publish it, and the corresponding executive agencies below can often draw a specific list of available personnel within an hour through calculation tools such as analysis machines. It will be very detailed, including those compiled by the family. Information about strength level and missions performed.”

"This is the speed of the big family, both internally and externally like we are now." Hessler sighed and closed his eyes again, "Captain, if you really have time, you should find a way to go back, or Either find an identity, or let Waters and Delya find an identity and go see a big force. Of course, if there is a chance."
