Xing recalled how Cocolia behaved when negotiating with others, and tried to put herself in that state. If Kevin turned on the video function of the communication at this time, he would find that the smile of this golden-eyed girl at this moment was almost exactly the same as that of the Siberian witch in the past...

"Besides, since you know my name, you must know my experience. I was born with a living stigma - the Spear of Cruelty. In the X-10 experiment conducted by the World Serpent and my mother Cocolia, I was the first perfectly successful experimental subject. You should know what kind of ability I awakened from the experiment, right?"

Xing continued to speak. As her tone became more natural, the girl's voice gradually gained confidence.

"My ability is connected to the power of the Herrscher of Time. In fact, I have fought with that Herrscher many times, so I know her recent movements and a lot about her.

There is no doubt about this.”

"...Yes, the coefficients of our imaginary number observer have experienced many violent fluctuations recently. If this is caused by the clash of your law powers, then it does make sense."

Kevin took over Xing's words, his cold voice still as calm as a glacier that had been there for thousands of years.

"So, one last question..."

"..."

Xing's eyes fluctuated, and her attention was unprecedentedly focused, waiting for the last question from the World Serpent Lord.

"what is your purpose?"

"My purpose..."

Yes, he revealed the defense loopholes of the branch base, creating opportunities for hostile forces to invade; he also actively assisted the hostile organization's strategic plan, bypassing Destiny and Anti-Entropy to tell the World Snake about the intelligence he had... What was the purpose of this outright betrayal?

This was the only question she couldn't lie about. This was the final and most important step to gain Kevin's trust. No matter how ridiculous or unbelievable the answer in her mind was, she had to tell it without hiding anything.

The girl's eyes became empty at this moment. She lowered her head with difficulty, her lips moved slightly, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito...

After hearing her words, both parties on the communication line fell silent again. After a while, Kevin's voice sounded again.

"I see......"

·————————————·

Three minutes later, Xing gently pushed open the door of the compartment and walked out with a pale face. She looked listless and her steps were weak, as if the conversation just now had exhausted all her strength...

At this time, Xing suddenly felt a little admiration for Asakura Miyuki. After getting the truth of the matter from the memory fragments, the girl already knew why Miyuki made that choice.

She is not a betrayer, and neither is she.

At least…not inside.

The little black cat must have also endured the same pain when making the decision... No matter how much she has endured and how much she has abandoned, I am doing the same thing now.

Xing thought silently and dragged her feet out of the bathroom.

click -

At this moment, a gun was suddenly pointed at the side of her head.

"Ms. Mal, who were you contacting just now?"

"...?"

Xing blinked, then noticed that a Valkyrie in a guard uniform was standing by the left door of the bathroom, holding the standard Water Fairy I-type firearm of the Destiny.

"Sister Valkyrie, are you mistaken? Xing just came to use the toilet..."

"Maybe. Although what I heard may not be the truth, it is a serious matter. Please follow me to the Ministry of Justice. You have no right to refuse."

"..."

Facing this responsible Valkyrie, Xing slowly lowered her head, her right hand clenched tightly at her side. But suddenly, as her eyes moved slightly, the girl's expression suddenly became subtle.

"Okay, Xing will go with you."

The girl smiled, and her sweet voice was very moving. However, the fact that she didn't show any nervousness even when a gun was pointed at her head made the Valkyrie feel a little nervous.

"Then hurry up..."

"Don't worry, sister. This is the middle of the branch base. Compared to the southernmost Ministry of Justice, I think ~ can we go to another place first?"

As she spoke, Xing turned her head slightly and looked out the window in the corridor. The guard Valkyrie followed her gaze and saw a magnificent building...

——Branch Government Affairs Center

744 Stage

Government Affairs Center, Minister's Office...

Theresa frowned and looked at the purple-haired girl standing in front of her with a calm face. She sighed softly and placed her hands on the table.

"Please explain what is going on?"

......

Three minutes ago, Branch Director Theresa, who was handling the affairs of the Far East Branch, welcomed two uninvited guests who had not made an appointment.

A female guard from the business district, and a student who joined the Far East branch some time ago...

To be precise, the latter was brought to the office by the former, and he happened to be someone Theresa was quite familiar with.

Xing Mal, a former member of Anti-Entropy, followed Cocolia to join the Far East Branch five months ago, and chose to enroll in Saint Freya due to his age.

So, why did the guard bring her here?

Under Theresa's questioning gaze, the guard Valkyrie reported what she heard in the bathroom, and roughly explained to Theresa that Xing was suspected of having an affair with Kevin and leaking the information about the destiny. Because the government district was too far away from the judicial department, the branch chief was asked to take over the matter.

After finishing the report, the guard Valkyrie saluted, turned and walked out of the office door, handing the suspect over to Theresa for interrogation.

As we all know, Theresa Apokalis, the head of the Far East Branch, is an S-level

As one of the Valkyries, she is in charge of judging the apprentice Valkyries of the academy, so the guards don't need to worry about anything.

Just like that, when Xing and Theresa were the only ones left in the office, Theresa sighed.

·————————————·

"Does Sister Theresa also think Xing is a suspect?"

Looking at Theresa, who was sitting on a raised chair with an increasingly serious expression, Xing tilted her head and asked, but she didn't behave in an indulgent manner, but her tone was not respectful either.

"I hope you're not, so Xiao Xing, please answer me seriously, who were you communicating with just now?"

"Xing was just contacting the after-sales customer service of Mikoyan Technology Company. There was a problem with the graphics card I bought online a few days ago~"

The girl said this with an innocent smile and a tone that was almost coquettish. This well-behaved and even a little artificial look was totally inconsistent with her past reputation, as if she was deliberately fooling others.

"Yeah......"

Theresa just nodded without any emotion. She knew that her image was not dignified at all and it was difficult for others to feel awe. However, she did not try to force her tone or contact the Supervision Department directly. She just tried to ask the girl in front of her to see if there was any misunderstanding.

Although Xing is almost 16 years old this year, in Theresa's eyes, she is still a young girl.

If it was a misunderstanding, rashly using the judicial system against this girl might cause harm to her soul...

Theresa withdrew her gaze and looked down at the desk.

The communication device that Xing used in the bathroom had been confiscated by the Valkyrie and handed over to Theresa.

Looking at the pyramid-shaped terminal on the table, Theresa was sure that there was no such device in the Destiny Organization, and the universal terminal of Anti-Entropy did not look like this either.

Moreover, the effect as a terminal is also very strange, with very few auxiliary functions. The page on the screen looks like an ordinary smartphone on the market...

If there wasn't something hidden, it would be just a toy.

"Did Cocolia give you this terminal?"

"No, this was lent to me by Sister Natasha."

"Natasha?"

"She is the mercenary lady who recently joined the branch and signed the agreement with Sister Shilis. Lady Theresa, don't you remember her? She had a coupon from Mikoyan Company, but because it was about to expire, she gave it to Xinglai to use~"

"Well......"

Theresa thought about it for a moment, and her frown relaxed.

Although her little brain was not as useful as that of a normal adult, she was not so forgetful. She did remember that Shilis had signed a former World Serpent mercenary on her own initiative and recruited him into the Far East Branch.

Okay, let's confirm this later.

Theresa opened the message log on the terminal, looked at the call record from thirteen minutes ago, and dialed the number again.

Although the Mikoyan Design Bureau, like the ME Company, is a world-renowned large-scale comprehensive enterprise, Xing's words just now still need to be verified.

......

Soon, Theresa's call was connected.

"Hello, this is the Mikoyan Design Bureau after-sales service hotline. Is there anything you need?"

Hey, is it really Mikoyan’s customer service?

Hearing the clear female voice, Theresa was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

"Ah...well, I want to know if there was a girl named Xing Mal who used this number to ask you about after-sales service issues regarding graphics cards? By the way, I'm her parent, and I just want to verify how the problem was handled."

Under Xing's interested eyes, Theresa turned on the external speaker and asked the customer service in a serious tone.

As a parent, Theresa's voice is a little childish, but her tone is quite serious.

"Well... although we cannot disclose the customer's information, since the account name you used is indeed our member Xing Maer, if you know the registration code of this account and pass Miss Maer's voiceprint verification, you can view the consultation records."

Hearing the customer service's words, Theresa immediately turned to Xing beside her and signaled with her eyes.

The purple-haired girl was silent for a moment, then she gritted her teeth and spoke.

"Uh.....114514...?"

Xing opened her mouth and said a string of numbers, but because the terminal was in speaker mode, the customer service responded before Theresa could repeat the string of numbers.

"Okay, that's the correct answer. It looks like Miss Mal is indeed nearby."

"..."

Xing's eyes sank slightly. Although it was an expected result, it still made her a little nervous.

When Xing heard that the member name was hers, she realized that World Serpent must have done a good job in Mikoyan to help her hide her identity. So just now, no matter what number she said, she could pass this so-called verification.

It's only been a dozen minutes. The World Snake Organization's actions

The efficiency is really strong? "It's scary..."

While Xing was thinking silently, Theresa had already started talking to Mikoyan's customer service.

“玛尔小姐购买的是本公司研制的6080ti游戏显卡,因连接不良导致的卡顿问题向本公司保修,咨询时间为2016年4月26日上午9:14......”

When Xing heard the name of the graphics card mentioned by the customer service, she was stunned again, because this was exactly the graphics card of Bronya's machine, and it was also the only graphics card model that Xing knew. If Theresa asked her, she would definitely answer this way.

But how could World Snake know that the lie he just made up was about the after-sales service of the graphics card? Theresa hadn't made the call yet...

Could it be that, even when the terminal was turned off, it was automatically monitoring external sounds?

Moreover, they were able to find such detailed intelligence in just over ten minutes? !

Although these could dispel some of Theresa's doubts, Xing also broke out in a cold sweat. Just this small matter made her realize the horror of that ancient organization...

Sure enough, choosing the World Snake was the right choice!

"6080ti? It sounds very powerful~"

Theresa said with some emotion. Although she was still confirming the contents of the testimony, the scale in her heart had already tilted towards the side where Xing was misunderstood.

"Yes, our Mikoyan BTX6080TI graphics card has a basic video memory of 20TB and is equipped with a super collapse energy cooling system. The core temperature is stable at 68°F. We are currently conducting a discount lottery event. Ma'am, register as a member and place an order immediately, and you will have a chance to win the Heroes of Hom collector's edition game disc..."

"Eh? Does this graphics card support the latest DLC of Howl's Adventure... Oh no! Ahem, I mean, is there an employee named Kevin in your customer service center?"

"Kevin? No, the customer service representative who just served Miss Mal is Evan Casla. Is there any problem with the service my colleague just provided?"

"Ah? It's nothing, it's just that the child really likes the voice of that gentleman and hopes to meet him again next time during consultation..."

"I understand. I will pass your suggestions on to Mr. Evan later. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

"Uh... no more."

“Are you satisfied with this consulting service?”

"Satisfied...right?"

744 Stage >>

"Okay~ Thank you very much for your support and affirmation of our work! We will work tirelessly to meet your expectations. If you have time, please be sure to leave a five-star rating on the official website~"

"Of course, of course..."

Theresa said quickly, and hung up the phone as quickly as she could, then she took a deep breath.
