The next day.

All work is proceeding step by step.

Having made sufficient preparations, Muirseth decided to confront the man now. She had already learned the details from another Rhine Life employee.

Dr. An has a special ability that allows him to change his body shape freely. To be precise, the skinny Dr. An that appeared in front of the operators was a teenager, and now Mike is a young adult...

The water elf had another guess in his mind: would he appear aged in the future?

No matter what, we'll have to wait until we meet in person.

Then, a visiting letter from Rhine Life was delivered to Mike's desk.

The man's first reaction was that trouble was coming.

"It's a blessing, not a curse. Miu Miu loves me so much, how could she bear to see me get hurt?"

Mike decided to be honest, but of course he couldn't be completely honest, he had to be strategic.

Currently he is the acting supervisor of the base camp, with the background of the Melander Foundation. Theoretically, he is one level higher than Rhine Life Science, so he just needs to stay in the office and wait.

Soon, the news of Muirseth's upcoming arrival spread to the ears of all team members, and everyone tacitly put aside the work at hand to avoid being unable to rescue the injured in time if something went wrong.

Facts have proved that after spending a long time with the funny operators, even serious strongmen like the Grandmaster will be assimilated into funny operators, not to mention the puppet who has already become a semi-comedian.

If there is anyone in the team who might betray himself in the end.

Mike estimated that the choice would fall on Xingji.

Dumbhead Magellan joined them after they entered the base camp, so he didn't know the specific situation well enough, but it was different for Xingji, as Blue Liberi at least participated in most of the trip.

So now everyone is waiting to see his fun.

In fact, Mike thinks that he does have some fun people in normal times, but one day when the fun people become fun, they are no longer fun.

He sighed, looked down at his watch, and calculated the time. Muirseth would be here soon. How should he proceed with his opening remarks?

Just as Mike was daydreaming, the office door was pushed open from the outside. Unexpectedly, perhaps because he was distracted, he did not hear the other person's footsteps.

A girl in thick winter clothes appeared in front of him, and every step she took towards him made him feel frightened.

She lost weight.

The little face, which originally had some baby fat, looked even more sharp.

This would only lead to a greater deviation when guessing her age.

Muir Seth is still a little girl now.

Even though she was already an adult in terms of the biological age of humans on Terra.

Sometimes Mike even thought about falling in love with the water elf and wondered if he would be caught by Chen Huijie.

"Hello, I am Muir Seth, the head of the Rhine Life Support Team. This is my business card, and there is also a letter from General Saria to you."

Muirseth calmly took out a business card from his bag and handed it to Mike with both hands. He then took out a letter with the words "Rhine Life" printed on it and also pushed it next to the business card.

Mike's heart skipped a beat.

It was so plain, could it be that Muirseth didn't guess who he was?

This is impossible. The Rhine Life operator in the team will definitely tell Muirseth the truth.

So what is the water elf going to do?

The more calm she acted, the more nervous he became.

In fact, Mike was only half right. There was indeed a Rhine Life operator who informed Muirseth of the situation, but it was Holhaiya who leaked his information.

As he watched the man take the card and look at it carefully, as if he was recognizing the name on it for the first time, Muirseth's heart began to beat.

She recognized this man.

They met at the jewelry store in the base camp yesterday.

No, no.

Can't think about it anymore.

Muirseth forced herself to suppress the panic in her heart, because she found that after the conversation yesterday, he actually brought in his own identity to help him conquer her.

What the hell.

Why didn’t you ask Xingji for a photo of Mike in advance? This would be better than just staring at each other now.

Careless.

On the other side, Mike twitched in his heart for a moment, accepted the business card, and a kind smile appeared on his face.

"Hello, Director Muirseth."

"Hello, you too."

The water elf found himself stuttering and almost unable to speak.

This is not a good sign.

Muirseth was nervous, and so was Mike.

He picked up the letter that Saria had given him, and tried to open it several times without success. Finally, he stared, took out a fruit knife used to peel apples from the drawer, and opened the envelope.

In this regard, he could only tell himself that there was no other way because it was cold and his hands were shaking too much.

It was such a funny scene that even Muir Seth couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

They are the same.

As Mike unfolded the letter, he asked, "Has Saria changed since she became the governor? Is she still as stone-headed as before?"

This sentence is not a conversation with Muirseth in the identity of Mike.

The water elf suddenly realized that after Mike said these two words, she directly confronted her and revealed her identity, which was obviously a sign of active attack.

"Fortunately, Saria hasn't changed much. Fortunately, Hemer stayed with her as the assistant to the chief."

When Muirseth said this, he couldn't help but recall the scene in his memory. After Christen launched himself into the sky, Saria took over Rhine's life. She and Hemer could be seen going out together almost every day.

Although to others, this is a symbol of their good relationship.

As one of the company's founders, it is hard for Muerseth not to recall the difficult time that Kristen, Saria and she went through together in the early stages of Rhine Life.

Even the most difficult days are beautiful memories, especially when they are filtered through the filter of the past.

But that was a long time ago, and now she is just an outsider.

Mike was the one asking the questions before. When Muirseth came to her senses, she found that the initiative was in the hands of the other party, which was not in line with her purpose of coming here today.

We have rushed here in a hurry for the sudden attack. If we cannot seize the initiative, wouldn't it be a disgrace?

She didn't forget to bring charges against him.

"Dear Mr. Mike, after what you've been through in the past few months, I find it hard to imagine that you would rush to Sammy with your team members."

"It's hard to describe in words."

Mike stood up and walked around the desk, pretending not to notice Muirseth's defensive look, brought a chair for her to sit down, and then leaned against the desk.

"You've come all the way here, you're exhausted, can't you take a few days' rest?"

"I heard about what happened at the base camp. I'm the closest person to the base camp. Apart from me, who else can get here in such a short time?"

There was some melancholy in Muirseth's tone when she said this, because she didn't expect that the doctor was at the base camp.

Mike looked at the water elf, and the water elf looked at him. They both turned their heads away at the same time, not daring to look into each other's eyes.

"Muir Seth..."

Mike only said one sentence before the water elf interrupted him.

"Don't go on. I know what you mean. There are some things I don't want to know."

"No, I have to let you know."

Mike jumped off the table, walked quickly forward, and hugged the water elf before she could escape.

As Muirseth was held in Mike's strong arms, he had only one thought in his mind.

She especially hated herself for having given advice yesterday, but now the boomerang had hit her directly in the face.

Clearly feeling the girl's slightly stiff body, Mike hugged her arms and made a gentle movement. A flash of azure light flashed, and he shrank from a strong Mike to Dr. An.

Such a magical scene made Muir Seth's eyes even wider.

She had only heard about this magical ability between the lines, and when she saw it with her own eyes, she was still shocked.

"I thought……"

"What do you think?"

In Dr. An's state, the doctor is slightly shorter than Muir Seth.

"I didn't expect you to be like this. I've never heard of this before. This is definitely not the technology of Rhine Life or Columbia."

"I can't explain to you what this technology is because I know a little bit more than what you see."

An raised his hands. He was familiar with everything about this body, and also familiar with himself in Mike's form.

He whispered, "When I changed forms before, it wasn't done with some simple movements."

That seemed to be a very painful memory and An was unwilling to talk about it. Even though the water elf was very curious, he was too embarrassed to continue asking.

The man sighed: "Okay, I can tell you, but you have to keep it a secret for me."

"Good good."

The corners of An's mouth twitched twice, and he leaned close to Muirseth's ear and whispered, "If I want to change from Mike's form to An, I can only stab myself in the stomach with a knife."

"what?"

What kind of ability is this?

Even the Sarkaz people's Originium skills were a little too exaggerated for Muirseth.

Wouldn't it be fatal if someone stabbed himself?

But An said seriously, "Are you willing to believe it?"

This sentence was not asking Muerseth whether she believed in this strange method of transformation, but asking her whether she was willing to believe all the descriptions just now.

Muirseth was silent.

Her silence made Ann uneasy.

Because of the contact with the water spirit today, he took a risk, and Muirseth was not someone who could be easily convinced by him.

When Christen left the land of Ketera, the water elf was depressed for a long time and wanted to hide himself somewhere and never come out again.

Ann could imagine how much his death had devastated Muirseth.

But he had no way of telling the real truth behind this matter.

Some secrets require someone to bear the consequences.

"Today I can just turn around and walk away without believing what you said, and use it to deal with you who deceived me."

Muirseth pursed her lips, turned her gaze to the other side, and said in an almost indifferent tone the words that had been hidden in her heart for a long time.

"No matter what excuses you have, no matter what you are prepared to do, you are using death to escape everything in the past. This is the consequence you must bear."

Mike responded with silence, like a prisoner on trial, any excuse he made seemed like quibbling.

"I don't know what happened to you, and you never intended to tell me, so you can't get my forgiveness."

Mike remained silent.

When Muirseth raised her head and looked at the man again, she found that he was still the same as before.

Sometimes very smart and wise, and sometimes like Saria, hard as a rock.

"I will never forgive you." She said to herself in her heart.

"This is the ending I deserve," Mike also said.

Muirseth's face turned pale.
