Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"If you were to come and discuss things with the doctor when it's convenient for him, wouldn't it seem a little strange?"

Fester immediately felt that he could smell it.

The doctor punched Qi Yan: "If you have nothing to do, go bite W's Claymore mine, don't disgust people here."

After finishing his sentence, the doctor turned and waved to Fester:

“What we’re talking about happens to be related to the Self-Salvation Army. Why don’t you come and give us your advice?”

"What are you talking about?" Fester walked over and sat down next to the three of them.

"Regarding how we will contact each other after we split up," the Doctor said, leaning back on the sofa with his arms crossed. "Although Kroos's communicator supports long-distance communication, the battlefield environment is too complex, and it will most likely be useless in critical moments."

Therefore, we need some simple yet effective communication methods.

“You mean the profession of intelligence officer?” Fester smiled wryly. “I just talked to the commander about this, but unfortunately, most of the self-rescue army are civilians from Londinium, and no one is qualified for this task.”

The doctor chuckled and said, "I had anticipated this, which is why I sought out Hadley. I had heard W mention a senior intelligence officer."

“Ines is certainly capable of this job, and she is currently active in the city. I will contact her as soon as possible,” Hadley agreed readily.

"Wait, I have an objection!"

Qi Yan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt: "Hedley, that's not how you use Ines!"

Fester: ? ?

PhD:??!

Chapter 653 Living Room Meeting

Hedley instinctively held his breath, his one eye fixed on Qi Yan, afraid that this guy might utter some strange and unsettling statement.

Fester frowned, deep in thought. He couldn't quite understand what other novel uses intelligence officers could have besides their regular duties.

The doctor was even more decisive, and began searching his mind for a series of terms such as '浗北した女捜査官です'.

Under the watchful eyes of the three grown men, Qi Yan said with a serious expression:

"Ines is needed to complete the 'Mercenary Family of Three' bond and trigger a special event, 'The Old Lover in the Cave'."

Hedley was dumbfounded:

"What are you saying? Why can't I understand a word of it?"

"What this dog means is that you, me, and Ines should team up and specifically search for caves to explore, which will allow us to discover special clues."

From the second floor of the living room, W's nonchalant voice could be heard.

"So that's all there is to it," the doctor sighed regretfully.

Fester looked puzzled: "Isn't this a good thing? Qi Yan is telling us a very important clue!"

No one answered Fester's question. Hedley tried to recall who Qi Yan's old lover was, while the Doctor was immersed in disappointment and lost interest.

Only W, bored out of his mind, didn't take the stairs; instead, he flipped over the second-floor railing and landed on the living room floor.

"It's definitely a good thing for us, since the walkthrough guide has been delivered right to our doorstep. But someone prefers to waste Rhodes Island's sanity resources and slowly solve puzzles to enrich his own gaming experience."

The doctor defended himself by saying:

"You misunderstood. I was just reminiscing about the beautiful scenes in my mind."

"I think you want to eat a landmine." W's face immediately turned fierce.

"How come you, a young lady, clicked with my signals so easily?" the doctor asked in surprise.

"When I was a mercenary, I blew up countless freaks like you. Do you want to go and meet them?"

W pulled out a grenade and gestured in front of the doctor.

Seeing this, the doctor shrank back in fright and turned to look at Qi Yan:

"Who exactly is this Ines? W seems to value her highly?"

“Ines could be W’s mother… oh dear!”

Qi Yan was about to say something cheeky when W hit him in the face with a grenade.

Hedley watched them scuffle, caught the grenade that bounced off Qi Yan's face with a headache, and said helplessly:

"Everyone, stop fooling around and let's get down to business."

Ines and I can take W with us to the Norbert district. After we're done there, we... will go find a cave in the wilderness.

Hearing such an outrageous action plan from his own mouth left Hedley with very mixed feelings.

However, considering Qi Yan's special circumstances, he chose to forcibly suppress these strange feelings.

Hedley continued, "These actions are still premature; our immediate concern is the safe evacuation of Lentinium."

The request from that self-rescue army soldier is also very important. We need to bring over the self-rescue army's informant first. Qi Yan, do you have any good ideas?

"Where to pick them up?" Qi Yan asked.

"Of course we'll bring them to the team and then evacuate with them," Hedley said, puzzled.

"Hedley, Hedley, I never imagined that someone with such thick eyebrows and big eyes could be so ruthless!"

Qi Yan looked grief-stricken, as if to say, "I misjudged him."

Hedley was immediately confused, wondering how he had ended up saving the wrong person.

W, fearing the world wasn't chaotic enough, added fuel to the fire, saying:

"That Ms. Golding not only has to take care of the children in the school and survive in the cracks of this turbulent war city, but now she also has to be taken out of the city by you to wander."

How could Ines possibly have fallen for a heartless and vicious man like you?

He quickly looked to the professor for help, hoping to get an answer to his criticism.

“Hedley, cutting off someone’s livelihood is like killing their parents. There’s nothing I can do to save you,” the doctor said regretfully.

Hedley: ?

He had no other choice but to look at Fester.

Fester: "I don't know."

Hedley: ? ? ?

Stop acting cute right now!

Qi Yan raised his hand and put it on Hedley's shoulder, saying earnestly:

"I feel that you may be getting old and can't keep up with the pace of young people. Maybe you should retire as soon as possible."

Kazdel Nursing Home, designed specifically for Sarkaz seniors and better suited to their physical condition, is currently offering a 20% discount on admission.

Hedley suddenly realized:

"You mean sending Ms. Golding to your nursing home?"

Qi Yan shrugged: "Otherwise what?"

Are you really going to lead a woman who's not good at fighting and a bunch of children around the battlefield?

The doctor rolled his eyes and said to Fester, "I agree to this policy. You can go back and discuss it with Clovisia."

If she agrees, W, who is currently free, can cooperate with the self-rescue army's operations.

“I have no objection.” Fester readily agreed, then added, “This will help lighten the burden on Clovisia, otherwise she would have to risk her life to pick her up herself.”

"She's going to pick her up herself?"

The doctor narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then, as a fellow commander, I can't fall behind. W and I will cooperate in the self-rescue army's operation."

"Why?" Fester asked.

“She is the commander and is extremely important to the self-defense forces. I must ensure her safety and not let her be left in the city during the operation if something happens to her.”

The doctor smiled and gestured with his chin toward Qi Yan: "Right, you white-haired dog?"

"My suggestion is to take her to a nursing home!"

"She's just a teenage girl!"

How dare you assume someone's age?

The doctor was rendered speechless by Qi Yan's retort of "the correct iron fist".

He groaned twice as if he had a toothache, and without continuing his argument with Qi Yan, he stood up and said:

"I won't argue with you. Let's see what we can do and see who Clovisia ultimately chooses to side with."

"I'll go find her right now."

Not wanting to be left behind, Qi Yan got up and ran.

The doctor seemed completely unconcerned about Qi Yan's impending kidnapping of Clovisia, and leisurely left the living room behind Qi Yan.

Hedley also stood up and instructed W:

"You go and cooperate with the doctor, I'm going to contact Ines."

"Hmph, remember to remind her when you see her." W wrinkled his nose in dissatisfaction, "I haven't forgotten how you two teamed up to mess with me in Chernobog."

Hedley gave a slight smile:

"I wouldn't mind letting you vent your anger, but she might not be so sure. I can't guarantee you can beat her."

"I have reinforcements!" W flashed his signature mischievous grin.

"You mean Qi Yan?"

"Who needs that dog? I mean another woman who's good at sneaking around and spying on people's minds."

W's little tail swished happily behind her as she turned and walked in the direction the doctor had left, saying without looking back, "Bad women versus bad women, I'm already looking forward to it."

Hedley raised an eyebrow, not taking it to heart, and turned to leave as well.

Inside the living room, only Fester remained, sitting on the sofa, still engrossed in the struggle between the Doctor and Qi Yan.

He scratched his head, puzzled, and sighed:

Is Clovisia that popular?

Chapter 654 Self-Help Strategies of an Internet-Addicted Girl

"Biura, you've made great progress lately."

Biura's superior looked at the report in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly in satisfaction.

"I learned all of this from the notes you gave me, leader."

Biura said with a well-behaved expression, "I've found that as long as you label people and things with fixed tags before thinking about and solving problems, the efficiency will be much faster."

"Not bad."

Biura's female boss, Felin, looked pleased.

She felt that this girl had some talent, which is why she was willing to pass on her best skills.

Now, Biura's feedback makes her feel that her judgment is as perfect as ever.

"If you maintain this work ethic, I can write you a letter of recommendation after the war ends."

The woman casually tossed a large pancake over.

"Thank you, leader."

Biula quietly caught the flatbread and added some toppings on it:

“My father was also a soldier. His biggest regret was that he was not able to become a member of the Duke’s personal guard.”

Film Girl: "..."

This little girl has quite an appetite.

However, the woman was not angry; on the contrary, she was even more satisfied.

Ambitious people are better able to create value.

"Tell me, do you have some action plan that you'd like to boast about?" the woman with the film asked with a smile.
