About becoming a magical girl

"why would you say so?"
"The apostolic organization will not always make investments without returns."
Evenier shook her head.
After all, "bread" is not a bargain, you can vote if you want.
"In other words, Xijing City is not important to the apostle organization, it is dispensable."
In other words, the apostle's map is by no means limited to the city of Xijing City. On a larger scale, it may even be the entire world that has already collapsed.
"Really……"
"By the way, Nami, one more thing, how did you find out about private institutions and companies that have done business with ICS?"
"This report is here."
Shinomi took out a thick document again, "There is one thing in this list that needs attention, the Huachao Foundation, which used to be one of the biggest sponsors of ICS."
……

153. Urgent
"The Huachao Consortium?" Avenir paused, thinking for a moment, "I remember I heard about it somewhere."
"Of course you have heard that the Huachao Consortium also has some business contacts with our organization."
Shino Mi Nami began to explain.
Only then did Evenier know that the Huachao Consortium, a commercial giant, controls a large number of companies and institutions, and is one of the sources of funding for the Order Organization and the Special Disaster Division.
It generally does not operate in the name of the "Flower Consortium", but is active in the name of the companies under its actual control. Therefore, compared with the name of the "Flower Consortium", most of the companies under it may be more familiar.
As the actual controllers of those companies, the Huachao Consortium is very large. The main industries of the companies it actually controls cover transportation, media, entertainment, finance, industry, etc. in the city, and most of the high-end consumer products are under its control.
Telecommunications, politics, culture, religion, scientific research, food, medicine, energy, education, city defense, etc. are controlled and managed by the Order Organization, the Special Disaster Division and its subordinate departments.
Under the institutional system of Xijing City, some very important fields are strictly restricted, and private companies cannot get involved too much. This means that private companies have limited influence on the direction of urban development, and private companies cannot influence the overall decision-making of urban planning and the direction of major issues.
To put it simply, the actual controllers behind the scenes of many well-known companies in Xijing City are the Huachao Consortium. Avonier generally doesn’t pay too much attention to this matter, so he only “hears about it”. Those who are familiar with the finance of Xijing City must not be ignorant of the influence of the Huachao Consortium.
"It seems to be a big guy behind the financial scene... I don't know much about it."
Evenier shook her head. She is really slow in this aspect. She has been like this since she was a child, and she doesn't know anything about popular topics among classmates. After becoming an agent, Evenier is even more so. If it wasn't for the people and things that appeared in the "event", she would almost never go out of her way to understand it.
The Huachao Consortium has been operating as a "semi-behind the scenes", and Avenier naturally knows little about it.
Evenier thought for a while, and said, "So I just want to know - how difficult is it to investigate such a huge group?"
"easy."
Shino Mi Nami smiled lightly, "Even if it is the largest 'group' in Xijing City."
But it is not worth mentioning in front of the absolute dominance of the Orderer organization.
"Although there is no specific 'evidence' yet, in the face of the righteousness of 'maintaining urban stability', this kind of problem is nothing at all. As long as you open your mouth, it is 'evidence', and they are impossible to stop."
"Of course," Shinomi Nami added, "you have to wait until you pass these few days, and now you don't have the actual power to make decisions."
"Well, I guess so..."
Eveniel was lost in thought.
Indeed, among the major cities of the People's Federation, the Orderer organization naturally maintains a detached position.
Because the organization is the only barrier of the city, if the organization does not act with the most fundamental essence of "guarding the city", or the execution of its functions and powers will be hindered by other forces, then hidden dangers will follow.
Perhaps being too autocratic can also bring hidden dangers, but this is better than putting this danger in the hands of others who cannot control.
After all, the Orderer organization is the only "army" that resists foreign enemies. Under external pressure, the internal stability of the Orderer organization can be guaranteed to a certain extent-of course, it can be said that the stability of the Orderer organization depends too much on this The natural resistance to external pressure relies too much on the member's own sense of crisis, so in a sense the system itself is very fragile.
The apostles used this method to infiltrate the orderer organization—the information they got from the traitors dug out by Concubine Masaki was mostly that the apostle organization promised them irresistible benefits, or threatened them and their families personally, so they had no choice but to follow.
Because the apostles are also "human" organizations, compromising with the apostles may not be considered a betrayal compared to the corroding body—this kind of self-hypnotic thought will easily ferment in their minds, and they will be shaken under coercion and lure.
In short, the existence of the apostles and the technology and power in their hands have shaken the cornerstone of the Renlian's rule.
The foundation based on "fear and resistance" is no longer stable, and it is shaken by the apostolic organization that can bring another possibility. This is the biggest reliance of the apostolic organization when it acts in various cities.
Speculators will consider risk versus reward, while others will be subject to the Apostle's powerful and brutal methods.
Because of this, Evenier hesitated about the "investigation".
She fears it will backfire.
"Forget it... Now it's just some unfounded speculation, or it's better to find some evidence before taking action-this shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
"I can try it. If we start from the files we keep, there may be some gains, but the premise is that the Huachao consortium itself is 'clean'."
If not, the Huachao consortium will definitely squeeze all the evidence to death, and it is absolutely impossible for Shino Jian Nami to find it out easily.
"It doesn't matter, I can take this opportunity to test their attitudes. All in all, the investigation of those companies and groups including the Huachao Consortium is up to you," Avenir thought for a while, "I will conduct a preliminary investigation in the next few days, and let me know if there are any new discoveries."
"Yeah. Then I'll leave first. You should take good care of your injuries these few days... Oh no, take a good rest."
"Well, thank you...but I'm fine now. Oh, by the way, how's Mae Sakagawa going?"
"Qian Sakakawa...the commander seems to have made some new discoveries at the location of the water tower you marked. No specific news has come yet, so it must be under investigation."
"That's right... I hope everything goes well." Eveni paused, "Also, if possible, can you send someone to protect Xue Nai these few days? She just happened to be at school these few days and participated in the school festival. The recent situation is not very clear, and I am worried about her."
"Xiao Yukina... the school festival?"
Shino Mi Nami blinked, then raised the corners of her mouth meaningfully.
School festival? (laugh)
So Xiaoxue Nai tricked Evenier like this?But it's also true that Evenier has been confined to the headquarters in the past few days, which happens to be a good time for Xue Nai to "take advantage of it".
Although it was funny in his heart, Shino couldn't see any flaws when he saw Nami's face, "Okay, I will pay attention here."
"It's your job."
"fine."
Seeing Nami getting up and about to leave, Shino's cell phone rang suddenly.
"This is Nami Shino."
"Captain... We... Sakai Monument received some abnormal energy fluctuation signals... The Special Disaster Division sent an emergency contact request... Major Fushihara..."
Efnir stood aside, couldn't hear clearly, but could vaguely sense the anxiety in the voice on the other side.
Soon, seeing Nami hang up the phone, Shino frowned slightly, and his eyes drifted to Evenier hesitantly, "Evenir, I may need to leave immediately."
"what happened?"
"do not know."
It's worrying because you don't know.
"However, the Sakai Monument received a signal fluctuation similar to Code H," Shino saw Nami with a serious expression, "and Xue Nai and 'Xia Duo', they are nearby."
……
------------
154. Code H or Apostle
"The location of the target is near the commercial street of Youcheng Academy."
And Xue Nai just happened to be at school today—at least from Avenier's point of view.
Code-named H, the girl in the hood, the pusher who brought Xue Nai into the field of agency.
What impressed Avenier most about her was that she was as powerful as an angel.
The invisible force field can easily overturn an armed vehicle, and the weird and mysterious power she displayed when she disappeared is also interesting.
In Avenier's opinion, in terms of code name H and the power displayed by angels alone, code name H will be slightly inferior to angels.In terms of threat, the code name H did not directly bring too many substantial threats and harm to Xijing City.
But... the biggest difference between code name H and angel is that code name H has complete cognition and independent thinking ability. It has been proved that angel's actions must rely on command and presupposition. It can be said that it is a "doll without thinking ability".
It is precisely because she does not know the purpose of Code H's actions, and does not understand the power of Code H, that her existence needs to be paid more attention to.
"The energy fluctuation that appeared this time is very similar to Code H, but not exactly the same. We can't tell whether Code H reappeared, or an existence with the same power as her appeared in our city."
Shinomi Nami said, "All in all, now we need to confirm what happened."
"I'm still not sure if the special target that appeared this time is code-named H," Evenier frowned slightly, "Nami, you go to find out the situation first - and call Xia Duo and Xue Nai back, they can't deal with that guy."
This is because she is worried about Xue Nai's safety,
"Need to contact the Commander?"
"Yes, let me talk about it here. I have to request my temporary action and decision-making power... You just need to send her the relevant information. Without further ado, let's split up and confirm the situation."
"Ah."
Shino sees Nami and leaves.
Evenier thought for a while, then turned and walked towards the soldiers—she had to get her right to act as soon as possible, and she had to get her beacon back in case of accidents.
There is no doubt that this is a state of emergency.
If code-named H, or an existence similar to code-named H reappears, among the agents remaining in Xijing City, only Efnir himself and Yanilas have the power to fight. Although lifting the restriction order now will bring hidden dangers, on balance, this is already the best solution.
……
10 minutes ago, on the other side——
Xue Nai said goodbye to Saori, Saori just nodded, the alley in the evening was dimly lit, and Xue Nai couldn't see Saori's expression clearly.
"Be careful on the way back."
She exhorted, then turned and left.
After walking a few steps, he stopped again, and said softly, "Also, send my regards to Senior Efnir..."
She didn't stay long, because she was still tasked with investigating.Immortal Hara Ayaka sent people to obtain surveillance information and tracked down several suspicious targets, while Saori was responsible for tracking and investigating these people.
Before meeting with Snow, Saori had controlled the three of them with other players. This time, the goal was a girl with a peaked cap. At the same time, it was the biggest goal of the suspicion so far, because among these suspicious goals arranged by the immortal original Hua Hua, only she was constantly wandering in various alleys. The second murder, and the victim was also the cadres in the black organizations of the Disaster Disaster Disaster.
It's just that one time may be a coincidence, and two times is an absolute suspicion, not to mention that the girl's body shape just matches the type of physical characteristics corresponding to the bloody footprints that Saori found in the underground passage, so Immortal Ayahara immediately locked it through various monitoring The approximate whereabouts of the girl are now somewhere in this block.
Saori came here just to investigate this girl, but she happened to meet Xue Nai here, and after saying goodbye to Xue Nai, Saori connected to the communication with the headquarters of the Special Disaster Division again.
"The target appeared near the marked point 1 minute ago, just 300 meters north of your location."
Saori's actions deviated for about a minute, and Immortal Hara Ayaka's voice appeared in the headset, reminding Saori of the target.
"My people haven't arrived yet, so be careful yourself—since 'that guy' has appeared here, it is very likely that she will attack the next target here. If nothing can be done, retreat first and wait for my people to join you before acting."
There are already two people who are suspected to have died at the hands of the target girl.
One is a member of the black organization discovered by Saori who died in the underground tunnel, and the other is that while Saori was operating, the target person in charge of another special operations force was also found dead at home.
The tragic conditions of these two people's deaths were exactly the same, their bodies were distorted and folded by some huge force, and their heads were finally crushed to death.
"In addition, if there is no change in the target, we will monitor it first, wait for the opportunity, and wait for the orderer to send back clues."
Because of the occurrence of this phenomenon, the first suspicious object that Immortal Hara Ayaka and Saori thought of was the "Apostle" - the power of the apostle can cause such a death.
but……
If the other party is really an apostle, how could the Order organization not have any warning?
Therefore, Immortal Ayahara sent a request for assistance in the investigation to the Orderer Organization, requesting the Orderer Organization Sakai Monument Management Department to obtain the monitoring records of all abnormal energy fluctuations in the city in the past two days.
She wants to confirm her guess.
The apostle's methods emerged endlessly. Now that some clues have been discovered and there are doubts, Immortal Hara Linghua will naturally pursue it.
——After all, just in case.
The Sakai Monument will record all abnormal energy fluctuations and changes in the city. Generally speaking, the Sakai Monument management department records at least thousands of pieces of data every day, and only a very small part of them will be screened out for secondary verification—such as Erosion energy fluctuates abnormally, which may mean the coming of an erosion disaster, but it may also just come from the impact of an abnormal activity of a white hole on the energy level change.
Others, such as the fluctuations caused by the agent's power of order, are only reserved for observation, unless the records that match the apostle's wavelength will be backed up and analyzed separately. If suspicious situations are found, agents and soldiers from relevant departments will be dispatched immediately to investigate or fight.
What Immortal Hara Ayaka wants is all the data.
As long as the data recording location is compared with the location where the victim appeared twice, it can be confirmed whether there is a correlation between the two.
