Eh? Do you also want to try the iron fist of the humanoid girl?

If a robot were to be tortured like this, it would only say: Are you sick?

Fortunately, he told the truth honestly and did not suffer any further torture.

They came from West Africa and took an order from a certain unspeakable intermediary platform website to try to kidnap a person on the open day of the University of Leipzig. The target was an associate professor in the Department of Mathematics, and the bounty was not high, a total of US$15.

It seems like they are just a few bandits who have no idea why they are mobilizing so many troops.

However, Raphael felt that this was a bit like throwing a stone to test the waters. The employer behind the scenes just picked a unlucky guy to test the quality of Leipzig's security.

Under the current circumstances, the result of the kidnapping team being annihilated should be able to meet the other party's expectations. If this is true, there must be something of great interest to them hidden in the Karl Marx University of Leipzig.

"Anyway, the storm has calmed down this time..." Lu Hui said doubtfully.

"Probably. Contact Fei Niao and prepare for retreat. The cleaners are coming."

Raphael shot the kidnapper twice in the head. "Goodbye, no need to thank me. It's your fault that you accepted a life-threatening task."

After the bionic tactical humanoid team arrived in Leipzig, they did not rush to join up with the exchange group from the institute. Instead, they simply reported the situation to the current security officer and went into hiding on the spot.

The other party understood our approach and expressed clear support.

As a security officer, he must take into account the current security situation in Germany. As an insider of the cause and effect of the Main-Frankfurt blockade, he believes that it is fortunate for everyone to have such a team providing protection in secret.

More importantly, the American personnel participating in the human brain neural scanning and reconstruction simulation project are rare and important scholars for the United States today.

If two people die in an accident, the security officer’s job and personal freedom for the next ten years will be lost.

Chapter 76 Trivia

Raphael was awakened from his deep sleep by the ringing of an urgent electric doorbell.

The call was from Major Gilbert Lane, who told Raphael that an extremely fierce gun battle had just occurred at one of the institute's assets near St. Thomas Church in Leipzig.

"Gun fight? Who against whom?" she was surprised.

"I don't know. The administrator on duty was terrified and couldn't get any information over the phone." Major Ryan paused and said, "I'll go there now. Wait for my news."

"Wait a moment, I'll bring someone with you."

Raphael was a little worried. Germany is no longer what it used to be. After accepting a large number of refugees from all over the world, its safety factor has dropped to a point that would make anyone cry when seeing it.

More importantly, this is not a country with strict gun control.

The mixed residence of blacks, whites and yellow people, as well as the gradual formation of gangs among them, led to a fierce collision of various forces in Leipzig and even throughout Germany.

The situation in neighboring France is similar. In the early years, it introduced a large number of cheap black laborers from West Africa, and then had to accept a large number of refugees from East Asia and Southeast Asia in response to the situation. The phenomenon of infighting among the classes is endless.

The lower-class black people are dissatisfied with the fact that Asian refugees have higher social status and salaries than they do, which often leads to looting and smashing activities called "protests" that are actually "riots."

In the six months from January to June 36 alone, the black community (regardless of ethnicity) demonstrated an average of 1 times per month, and most of these demonstrations were accompanied by violent acts of destruction such as blocking roads, smashing shops, attacking vehicles and pedestrians, and even raping women.

The authorities have chosen an expulsion policy that seems foolish but is actually aimed at the pure land of Africa.

They first cut policy subsidies for black workers, which directly led to a 16.2% drop in their wages and a 6.9% increase in the cost of living.

As the economic and political situation continues to change, France and Germany's joint adjustment of pace has triggered overall turmoil in the European Union.

The direct result is that this group's daily living expenses, which used to be met with 10 euros a day, now cost 18 euros.

The poor at the bottom of society could no longer make ends meet, so they naturally took to the streets to cause trouble. This then led to widespread protests.

At this moment, they announced to increase investment in West Africa. If these people are willing to be hired to work in West Africa, they will receive high financial subsidies again.

Of course, if French citizens - specifically white people - are willing to go there to explore, they will receive higher subsidies and financial support.

In short, the redevelopment of the West African clean zone has begun.

In order to support the development work, the French army rarely expanded the foreign legion and reorganized the armaments of the navy, army and air force.

Because the two countries established a closer alliance, Germany also invested considerable resources with the goal of gaining the pure land of Africa.

Whoever obtains a large amount of pure land will be able to establish an advantage in the next 20 years.

The United States chose Canada, and they chose Africa, and there is not much difference between the two.

If the Nobuoyama incident in Japan ushered the Blue Planet into an era of crisis, then the Aurora Borealis incident accelerated the world's pace toward war.

"No, I'll go check out the situation first, wait for my call."

The security officer refused without hesitation.

"Remember to bring a few more people and guns." Although he had never met the major and didn't know his temper, Raphael could only give him some friendly reminders.

Having just dealt with a suspected kidnapping case targeting the research team yesterday, such a terrible thing happened again this morning. You can imagine how Raphael feels.

In the afternoon, the security officer called.

“If there are two choices, one of which will lead to disaster, someone will make that choice.”

Captain Murphy's classic quote is still valid today.

On the phone, the major told Raphael that the temporary warehouse rented by the institute on the south side of St. Thomas Church was involved in an armed robbery, causing heavy losses.

Two of the men he brought with him were hit by stray bullets during the gunfight and died despite medical treatment.

When Raphael arrived at the scene with Lingyin, he was negotiating with a Leipzig state police officer.

The officer told Rafael that the security officer arrived just in time to witness a shootout between the police and the robbers.

Due to some unfortunate miscommunication, the unarmed officer and the Marine are mistakenly believed to be the other side's aid...

The unidentified robbers and the police opened fire on the third party at the same time, resulting in the tragic result of two deaths and one injury.

Fortunately, two of the invading gangsters were shot dead on the spot, which gave the police the most direct clues for follow-up investigations.

There is evidence that at least two employees of the institute were involved in the case, one of whom was shot dead and one is still at large.

What the police officer couldn't understand was that the property rented by the institute as a warehouse did not store any items of particularly high value.

They were old computers with no storage that had been temporarily put to use. They had some value, but not much.

"Sheriff, can I go in and take a look?" Raphael asked.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Raphael, a navy captain, is a foreign affairs attaché at the embassy and is also in charge of the security of the institute."

"It seems that the US side really takes this seriously. You can call me William," the sheriff nodded, raised his hand and invited, "Please follow me. It's a bit chaotic inside because of the gunfight."

"There were bullet holes everywhere. The gunfight was intense."

After observation, Raphael found that the items in this warehouse were indeed as Sheriff William understood, they were products that were not outdated but certainly could not keep up with the times.

What surprised her was that the police were able to show up at the theft scene in time with an accomplice.

This is quite strange, but it makes sense considering that they all know the situation of the insider.

The only responsibility for the casualties can be blamed on their over-optimism in controlling the situation at the scene. They did not anticipate that the criminals might have lethal weapons, which led to the current situation.

Raphael sighed and could only hope that Leipzig's police system was not a fool.

"How is it... Is it bad?" Seeing that Raphael was silent, Sheriff William asked with some concern: "Will the loss or damage of these spare equipment affect your work?"

"No, this needs to be confirmed by the logistics director of the institute. I am only responsible for security matters."

Raphael didn't want to intervene rashly over such a small matter and give the management of the institute and the officials from the embassy the impression that there were no rules. Who knew what these people were thinking.

Moreover, in her opinion, the theft was just a small problem and the loss was within her acceptable range.

What really worried her was another problem exposed by this incident.

After the institute urgently moved to Karl Marx University in Leipzig at the beginning of the year, it had to re-recruit employees for other positions to meet the daily operations of the institute. Many researchers and professors also recruited students for the new year.

When there is a flow of personnel, loopholes in security management will naturally appear.

Otherwise, how could the criminal gang members join the institute so smoothly even though they were sent to work in off-campus sites?

The next day, Dvorak, the head of the human resources department, brought a group of human resources specialists into the archives and began to check the new employees according to Raphael's requirements.

With their assistance, the police quickly found out the details of the two employees involved in the case.

The deceased's real name was Schneider Ben. He had been imprisoned twice for selling illegal liquor boxes and armed robbery of shops. His whereabouts have been unknown since he escaped from prison last year.

The identity of the one who ran away was a bit surprising. He was a small leader of a large gang in Berlin. He had been involved in several kidnapping and murder cases and was also related to human smuggling.

Since Berlin became an ELID low-radiation impact zone, the gang fell apart during the migration and this person disappeared.

Both of them were recommended to the talent agency by bribing the head of the Leipzig trade union, and were finally selected by the institute's personnel department and became temporary employees.

The union leader who accepted the bribe was immediately taken away by the police.

Director Dvorak discovered far more problems than just this one. A group of bugs who took advantage of the special nature of the institute, smuggled contraband through the exclusive privileged freight channels, and stole and resold the goods were also caught one by one.

Even the warehouse manager who called Major Gilbert Lane to tell him about the gunfight was found to have falsified accounts and resold the warehouse goods under the guise of loss reporting.

Only then did they realize that the current research institute was simply a sieve with leaks everywhere.

Decades ago, when there was no Internet and a complete information collection system, it was difficult for any company or organization to check the details of every employee one by one.

What era is this? The road to strong artificial intelligence is open to humans, which in itself means the super development of computer information systems, but this kind of thing still happens.

Ultimately, it all comes down to "people".

In order to prevent such incidents from happening again, the institute must establish a more stringent personnel management system to ensure that these problems are discovered and resolved as soon as possible.

Raphael has always been averse to adopting that kind of strict and rigorous management model, because the information she wants to steal is under such layers of protection. Unless there is a loophole in this system, there is basically no way to obtain it by violent destruction.

It now seems that no matter how tightly the system is designed, if the management of people is neglected, serious consequences will inevitably occur one day.

In the afternoon, Director Dvorak convened the institute's management and told them his concerns.

Dvorak admitted that because the institute's personnel and authority management were still in a state of chaos, they often had to rely on temporary paper documents to process authorizations.

Researchers with administrative responsibilities should now temporarily freeze their projects and assist departments in rebuilding an effective management system.

Someone has proposed to recruit a group of reliable people with military background to form a special security team.

On the one hand, it can strengthen the internal management of the institute, and on the other hand, it can provide external protection in the current poor security situation to ensure the safety of the institute's personnel and equipment.

If we completely rely on the public security management services provided by the authorities, at least there will be no deaths if similar incidents occur again.

However, this was just a superficial effort, and the director seemed to have little interest in it. After all, the price of hiring a professional security team was much higher than that of a civilian security team.

The money of the institute didn't come from the wind. The director thought that if we can make do with it for now, we should do it as much as possible. If it really doesn't work, we can talk about it later...

Moreover, even if we really want to establish this kind of "paramilitary force", there are many issues that need to be considered in advance, and it is definitely not something that can be done on a whim.

It is not easy to arrange all these things, including the state and national legislatures, the Ministry of Justice, and the military and police.

Although the institute seems to be very prestigious at present, it is actually built on the basis of American personnel. Once they leave, its research results will no longer be so important.

If we really want to talk, it will be more troublesome on the state side. We have to talk to each member of parliament one by one, and it may also involve issues involving the opposition party.

The key is that the Ministry of Justice and the Institute really can't find a way. So, some things are just for thought, and they or the Americans have to take the initiative to propose them.

The director looked at the security officer Raphael who was sitting in the corner, observing everything and not saying a word, and he knew what the other party's attitude was.

Could Raphael speak? Obviously, no. This was just a matter of mismanagement, not a kidnapping like yesterday.

She didn't have enough authority to speak or agree, so she could only listen and think about her own things.

Even if it was Major Gilbert Lane, his reaction would be similar. He might even stay out of the matter and make his position clear in this unpleasant way.

The countermeasures discussion meeting lasted until late at night, and there was a buffet dinner in the middle, which made Raphael confused as to whether they were here to discuss solutions to the problem or to socialize.

In a nutshell: by wasting time they show the outside world that they are really working hard.

By the time Raphael finished his work and returned to the safe house, it was already late at night.

When Luhui saw Raphael coming back, her tense nerves finally relaxed. If the signal connection between the two sides was not normal, she would have awakened Lingyin and Feiniao from sleep.

When it comes to this, they are bound to cause some insignificant commotion in the city of Leipzig.

"I thought you wouldn't come back!"

Green Hui almost rushed over and pressed heavily on Raphael.

"Calm down, they are just a few thieves who stole the temporary warehouse of the institute outside the university and injured two unarmed Marines."

Raphael explained with a smile: "It's not a big deal, don't worry."

"Is that so?" Xiao Si's voice was tearful.

"Didn't you see that Lingyin and Asuka didn't react?"
