He waved at the girls in the room, and just as he opened the door and stepped out of the conference room, he heard a series of hurried footsteps gradually moving away from the wooden floor of the corridor outside.

'Celery? '

Luo Lin peeked into the shadows, but saw nothing except the faint back and the iconic double ponytails who had already turned the corner.

'Forget it, it will be very difficult to get someone with Qin Xiang's temperament to recognize me in a short time, and it will be even more difficult to change her opinion with words, but in the end it is still necessary to use actions. '

Luo Lin shook his head, and walked downstairs.

'Take your time later. '

Coming out of the teaching building of Abydos High School, he sat in the driver's seat of the armored car and put the pilot's helmet on the co-pilot.

Just after lighting the fire, the even-stop box that had been on the co-pilot for a day suddenly lit up, and Alona's figure appeared on the screen.

The blue-haired girl happily jumped to the screen and tapped it lightly with her fingers bent, as if she had managed to keep her owner's lovely pet home.

"Teacher, are you done with what you have to do?"

"Not at all, Alona."

Luo Lin chuckled, stepped on the clutch skillfully and started, the armored vehicle started to move, and drove towards the outside of the school.

"This matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface at first, check it out for me—wait a moment."

The words on his lips were interrupted by himself, and the armored vehicle that had just driven to the gate of the school also stopped slowly.

Looking at Nomiya standing at the school gate, Luo Lin opened the car door and waved to her.

"Nomiya, what's wrong?"

"Teacher, have you seen Qin Xiang?"

The girl ran over in three steps at a time, with her small hands on her chest, her expression was anxious, "She is avoiding me."

"Really...it's okay, don't worry, Qin Xiang should just be a little embarrassing."

Luo Lin thought for a while, then opened his mouth to comfort the girl.

"Just now I saw Qin Xiang eavesdropping on our conversation at the door. She must be struggling in her heart. Let her be quiet and talk to her tomorrow."

"Oh, by the way, Hoshino said that school is almost over, you should go back and pack your things."

"Okay, I know."

Hearing that Qin Xiang was fine, the anxiety on Nomiya's face eased a lot, and the frown that was frowned because of worry relaxed visibly with the naked eye.

"Goodbye, teacher~"

"See you."

Luo Lin watched the girl's back disappear into the campus of Abydos, and suddenly seemed to feel something, and looked up at the roof of the teaching building.

A slender figure was standing there, holding on to the railing, staring blankly in the direction of the school gate.

After noticing that Luo Lin's gaze had turned, she stomped her feet vigorously as if she was becoming angry, then turned and ran downstairs.

'Even though you're avoiding Nomiya, don't you worry about her? '

Luo Lin couldn't help laughing, retreated into the cab and closed the door, and started to accelerate again.

……

The armored vehicle was galloping on the highway in the Abydos Autonomous Region, but it didn't head towards Xialai.

"It turns out that Abydos High School is still facing this kind of crisis, such as sky-high debts..."

Alona in the Stuff Box was sitting on the desk, her delicate face was full of surprise.

Luo Lin drove the car steadily, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

"I just found out today too. Alona, ​​how about the information about Caesars Bank and the actual ownership of Abydos' land?"

"Well... the search is complete, teacher!"

Alona's figure jumped in front of the screen. Even though she knew that Luo Lin, who was driving, was not distracted from looking at the Gigabyte Box, she still held up a piece of paper with a sense of ritual, cleared her throat, and read it aloud.

"According to the last cadastral map records on the central network of the Federal Student Union, the ownership of the land in the Abydos Autonomous Region is still in the hands of Abydos High School."

"However, considering that this is a document left between the time when the overall situation in Abydos began to decline and the student union was officially disbanded, there has been no connection to the Internet for updates for several years, so there may be errors. "

"If you want the latest document, I'm afraid you can only ask the students in Abydos."

"I see."

Luo Lin, who was driving the car, didn't change his expression, just nodded slightly, "Go ahead."

"Ok."

Alona responded crisply, and then said:

"Caesar Loan, which belongs to the usury business operated by Caesar Bank, is famous in the industry for its fast disbursement of funds."

"Standing behind Caesars Bank, providing its security and financial support is the well-known gray enterprise in Kivatos——Caesars Group."

"Because it covers a wide range of businesses, including but not limited to real estate development, arms manufacturing and smuggling, energy innovation, financial investment and many other aspects, it can be said to be well-known in the gray area."

"The areas involved by this group are spread all over Kivatos, even in top autonomous regions like Holy Trinity Comprehensive College, there are still them."

"Just because of the gray corporate nature of the Caesars Group, the "Tea Party" who is the talker of Trinity College is always watching them carefully. "

"Furthermore, according to the traces of the itinerary of the senior personnel of the Caesars Group, the person in charge of the affairs of the Abydos Autonomous Region should be another subsidiary of the Caesars Group, that is, the director of Caesars PMC."

"PMC?"

Luo Lin's expression changed upon hearing this.

"Private military contractors? They still take over this kind of mercenary business? No wonder they have the guts to engage in arms sales."

"The lending project of Caesars Loan is also under his control? From the analysis of the power structure within the Caesars Group, can I get rid of him directly to solve Abydos' debt problem?"

"I'm afraid it will be difficult, teacher."

Alona flipped through the paper in her hand seriously, and responded to Luo Lin while looking at it.

"Caesars Bank is actually in charge of another director, and the director of PMC should have only obtained the relevant authorization on the debt issue of Abydos."

"If he dies, not to mention that he is a senior executive of the Caesars Group and a robot, he will definitely have a cloud consciousness backup protected by an advanced firewall. Resurrection only needs to change a body."

"Even if he is killed completely, Abydos' debts will not be eliminated. Instead, it will easily attract endless harassment and revenge from the Caesars Group secretly."

"But I think maybe the teacher could 'talk' to him."

"Talk about?"

Luo Lin's tone rose slightly, and he raised his eyebrows unconsciously.

"Yes."

Alona laughed, jumped to the screen and tapped with her fingers, yelling cute "dongdong" twice, dubbing her actions.

"Just use the teacher's favorite method."

Luo Lin glanced sideways at the iron pilot's helmet on the co-pilot, then lowered his eyes to glance at the data knife pinned to his waist, and suddenly grinned, showing a knowing smile.

"Well, it is indeed my favorite... Alona, ​​please show me the way."

"Leave it to me! Teacher!"

Chapter 23 Whose Mechanical Army?

Although Luo Lin was not afraid of Kaiser PMC, the other party was a large private military contractor anyway. Since he wanted to trouble their boss, he still needed to know the information he should know.

Arrogance is a common problem of iron pilots. Some people die from arrogance, but some use enough caution to polish their arrogance into a self-confidence that is invincible in battle.

Luo Lin parked the armored vehicle far away in an unobtrusive corner, and sat in the crew room by himself, while he was unhurriedly arranging the equipment to be used next, while listening to Alona's narration.

"Teacher, compared with the conventional military contractors on the market, Caesars PMC has something special that needs to be paid attention to."

The girl's brisk voice came out of the box of stags standing in front of Luo Lin, accompanied by the realistic "crash" sound of flipping books.

"what happened?"

Luo Lin adjusted the sight of the R-97 submachine gun in his hand, put it in front of his eyes, gestured a few times, and responded casually.

"Caesars PMC did not rely entirely on robots for security contracting work, but hired many students who were expelled for violating school regulations, as well as bad and gangsters who wandered around as employees."

"So the enemies that the teacher will face next are likely to be both gangsters and robots. You must be fully prepared."

Alona's hand flipping the book paused for a moment, and pasted the page showing the photo of the PMC director to the screen, as if she was holding it up to Luo Lin.

"But even though that's the case, in terms of the overall number of personnel, robots still account for the vast majority, and the hired gangsters are only a small part."

"And these people should not all participate in the night guard patrols, most of the tasks will be completed by the guard robots."

Alona finished the series of words in one breath, and immediately stroked her flat chest as if to relieve her mood, and looked at Luo Lin outside the screen without blinking her big water blue eyes.

"thank you, I know now."

Rollin loaded the submachine gun magazine that had been checked for the last time, checked the insurance habitually, and after confirming that it was closed, he pulled the trigger handle to load the bullet, then put the gun on his lap, and looked at the tactical equipment next to him. .

In addition to the gravitational star and the fragmentation grenade, there is a smoke bomb and four flash bombs beside him.

In the face of robots that may be equipped with thermal imaging, ordinary smoke bombs are obviously not very useful. It is better to rely on the thermal imaging shielding function that comes with the iron pilot optical camouflage.

But flash bombs are different. In such a relatively narrow indoor environment, flash bombs that can burst out with high light and heat are a good choice, whether it is to deal with the optical vision system of human eyes or robots.

If you want to say that there are shortcomings, there is a risk of revealing your position if you make a loud noise along with the light and heat.

But it's time to use flash bombs, so maybe you don't need to care about whether the position will be exposed.

Making up his mind, Luo Lin put on all the equipment in an orderly manner, and adjusted the position of the data knife. This was the preparation before the mission was completed, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

But he didn't leave immediately, but leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair that was not comfortable, and looked at the tall buildings in the distance that towered like heaven and earth.

"Does the director of Kaiser PMC also stay in the company at night?"

"Yes, teacher. This is their office building. It is usually used to contact customers and contract business. It has always served as the director's residence and office."

Alona explained to Luo Lin based on the information she found, "If the high-ranking directors are allowed to stay in the military facility all the time, they may not be willing."

"That's right."

Luo Lin let out a long sigh, turned his gaze away, and narrowed his eyes reassuringly.

Now is not the time to do it. Only by recharging your energy can you launch the most violent attack at the most suitable time.

Time passed unknowingly in a doze.

When Luo Lin opened his eyes, the Abydos Autonomous Region was completely shrouded in darkness.

In the distance, the high-rise building of the Caesars Group stationed in the Abydos Autonomous Region stood quietly in the darkness, like a terrifying monster that could choose someone to devour at any time.

Luo Lin stretched out his hand silently, and buckled the pilot's helmet on his head. The "X"-shaped eyepiece flashed, and a faint blue glow lit up in the darkness, imbuing the crew room with an inexplicable chill.

He didn't do anything else, just opened the car door, and then walked towards the building in a very flat manner, his figure gradually disappearing into nothingness in the darkness.

……

The interior of the Caesars building is pitch-black, with only the faint light reflected from the ubiquitous surveillance cameras.

Now that it was night, the clerical staff working in the office building had already come off work, so naturally no one would stay and continue lighting the lamps.

After all, in the wonderful ecology of Kivatos, even though ordinary employees in most industries are robots, they still enjoy normal life and rest time.

Luo Lin wore optical camouflage, held the R-97 in his right hand, and held the data knife in the palm of his left hand. Looking at the path information detected by the pulse knife in front of him, he walked in the building as if he was going home.

Suddenly, he paused, raised his head and glanced at the wall, reached out and put the gun behind his back, and changed direction as if he had caught the target.

Taking advantage of the duration of the optical camouflage this time, he made two steps in three steps, kicked off the wall without a sound, jumped up, reached for the hidden camera in the corner in front of him, and pried open the back cover neatly, revealing one of them. Large electronic unit.

At the same time, press the button on the handle of the data knife with your thumb and push it forward, and a soft chip in the shape of a blade pops out.

Luo Lin raised his hand, violently inserted the data knife into the electronic unit without the slightest hesitation, and waited quietly for the three reading halos that jumped out of the knife handle to complete.

"Drip."

A faint notification sounded in the ear, and the monitoring screen of the area in front of him appeared in the upper left corner of the eyepiece, silently announcing the fact that the monitoring right had changed hands.

The screen in the monitoring center of the building was adjusted to a freeze-frame cycle, and the duration of the optical camouflage just ended.

Although his figure was revealed, Luo Lin's movements did not show any panic. He turned around smoothly and hid in the corner, and began to silently count his own heartbeat skillfully.

"Boom-thump-thump-"
