NIKKE, when the stars bloom

The second lieutenant, who was extremely calm, admired the scene openly, and said as he looked:

"I have to go back to the Ark tonight. Things at the Rehabilitation Center need to be finalized first. Then I have to go to the Pure Land to ask about the specific situation at Lapi.

Although Falin has sent a message saying that Rabi is fine, the actual situation is very complicated. They can't explain it clearly no matter how much they gesture, so I have to confirm it myself.

Once these two things are done, I will accompany you to District H to get the bamboo hat back."

"……Then what?"

For some reason, Honglian found that she really liked listening to her husband planning for the future. His clear and logical thinking, clear purpose, and gravel-like deep voice gave women a strong sense of security that could not be matched by his so-called "handsome appearance".

"Then?"

Phoenix touched his chin habitually, and several plans flashed through his mind one after another, but he felt that the days ahead were full of uncertainty, so he said frankly:

"Then we just have to wait for news from Cecil. Future arrangements will depend on Missilis' performance."

……

……

dong dong dong——!

"let me out!"

dong dong dong——!

"You idiots all want to die! Let me out!!!"

02In the basement, Shuen, who had slept until morning, was banging on the reinforced iron door in panic, his nerves tense to the point of almost hysteria.

The unfamiliar environment, unknown location, painful body, various factors and details combined with each other, and finally turned into a fear that enveloped the insecure CEO of Missilis.

Shuen felt like he was going crazy.

The strong feeling of helplessness pulled her consciousness back to the secret room of that year in the worst way.

She remembers it clearly, but also vaguely.

Late that night, her no longer gentle mother suddenly woke her up from her sleep and, in an almost commanding manner, ordered her to lie down in the extremely narrow secret compartment under the hall of her home.

Vaguely, her mother seemed to say something to her, but the voice in her memory was so vague that she couldn't recognize the specific content. Then, Nikki rushed into the room...

Several Nikkis...

Both mass-produced and non-mass-produced ones had visible gunshot wounds all over their bodies, and there were even dying human bodyguards who were transported to their homes by Nikki and the others.

But I don't see my father...

So, the young girl realized the danger she was facing and was finally willing to lie down in the dark compartment and wait silently.

Wait until the sound of gunfire appears above the mezzanine; wait until the servants’ screams are faintly heard; wait until all kinds of insults are heard...

She just waited.

Wait until everything is quiet, wait until...

Click!

Suddenly, the sound of a lock interrupted the recollection of memory, but failed to awaken Shuen's consciousness which was hazy with fear.

The moment the cell door was pushed open, when the familiar silhouette reappeared in the girl's vision blurred by tears, at that moment, it was as if a moth sensed the flame.

flutter--

Shu En, longing for safety, hugged the broad chest of that outline, and his voice was filled with tears.

"dad……"

"..."

Phoenix: “???”

……

Today is destined to be the most magical day someone has ever experienced.

The lieutenant never imagined that a bad girl like Shu En, who was not even worthy of being called a "female devil" on the Internet, would actually like that kind of perverted tune.

But unfortunately, without an emotional foundation, given Phoenix's petty and vindictive character, not to mention calling him dad, even calling him ancestor is useless.

"Let me ask you, do you know the key to the dynamic password of the limiter on Sen's face?"

Slowly pushing Shu En away, the man patted his collar in disdain and said bluntly:

"I'm not negotiating with you. The key is not something I need. It would be best if you are willing to tell me. It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me. At most, I will let Viper come and vent his anger on you. By then, I don't care whether you tell me or not."

"You...what's your attitude!!!"

In the previous second, he was still feeling ashamed for calling the wrong person "dad". In the next second, Shuen was so angry that his face turned red because of Phoenix's action of slapping his clothes.

In a woman's eyes, the greatest insult to her charm is to be rejected by a man who is known to be a sex-hungry maniac.

She is the CEO of Missilis, the richest lady in the Ark. Even if we put aside this identity, in terms of appearance alone, she is no worse than Yuni.

Why should a pervert treat her differently?

"Phoenix! I'm telling you, I still remember those three punches you gave me! If you let me go now, I...I can consider letting bygones be bygones."

After regaining consciousness, Shu En put on her disguise again and returned to her previous annoying appearance. She forced herself to maintain her weak aura and tried to use ridiculous chips to buy back her own safety.

However, in front of the notorious lieutenant, the girl's pitiful aura lasted less than two seconds before it disintegrated on its own.

"You, you better think about it! I...I can't die. I still have the most advanced technology of the Ark in my head! I haven't even entered it into the database!

If you dare to touch me... I promise! The entire Ark, including Anik, will hunt you down. "

When Shuen finished his threat, Phoenix, who was standing at the door without entering the house, shook his head speechlessly and sighed:

"I'll say it again."

"Do you know the key data of the dynamic password?"

"No...I don't know."

Perhaps he felt that his answer was too honest, Shu En gritted his teeth, puffed out his chest and started yelling fiercely.

"Are you a technology idiot? Who is so bored that they would memorize a bunch of key formulas?!"

Phoenix: “…”

Phoenix: "…What does the key formula mean?"

Shu En: “…”

Chapter 308 Ark Heroes

At this point, even though Shu En, who had become a prisoner, was extremely reluctant, she had to admit that her ability in judging people was really not that good.

But even so, Shuen still wants to say——

She couldn't fathom the character of the violent psychopath in front of her.

He is humble.

Counting the glorious deeds in the past year, this person has done a lot of things to convince others with reason when they disagreed with him.

They say he is rude.

But he is not like those old guys who like to pretend to know everything and are stubborn.

If you don’t know, you don’t know, and you will even take the initiative to ask for advice humbly.

I always feel that my personality is not very stable.

Shu En was complaining in her heart, and just as she was about to put on her habitual "looking down on people" expression, the bruises on her belly suddenly sent waves of dull pain, warning her to be extremely careful.

"Tsk."

Restraining the urge to ridicule, the genius girl had to patiently explain the basic knowledge about the Ark programming system.

"You mean the key, right? In layman's terms, take a bunch of very complicated mathematical formulas and put them together layer by layer. The final value is the dynamic password. All the previous data streams belong to the category of the key."

After Shuen's explanation, Lieutenant Phoenix, who was originally in the dark, suddenly felt that everything in front of him was clear. He only felt that the teaching level of artificial intelligence needed to be improved.

So, while Anik was jumping up and down and complaining, the man who turned a blind eye to it touched his chin and asked again:

"So who has the key to Sen?"

……

……

"Ms. Ingrid."

"Ms. Ingrid!"

In the Paradise Tower, the heroic Hua Qiulei, dressed in the commander's uniform, ignored the surprised and respectful looks of outsiders and hurriedly chased after the Queen.

Behind her, the clueless Nian followed and shouted:

“Boss! Boss!!!”

Hearing the two jokers yelling behind her, Ingrid, who had just returned triumphantly from the stock market with the Finance Department, had to try to clear the tiredness from her brows, turned around, and said seriously:

"No noise is allowed in public places. Do I need to teach you about this?"

Facing the boss's reprimand, Nian, who was standing beside the commander, was quite cooperative. She quickly stood still and shouted at the top of her voice like a soldier:

"Yes! Boss——!!!"

"..."

Blood pressure surged up with the sound echoing in the corridor. The Queen of Pure Land, whose heart rate began to rise, resolutely ignored her optimistic employees, then moved her eyes and silently looked at the hero who had topped the traffic of Ark in recent days - Commander Walqiulei.

After a long while, the woman finally spoke:

"Come to my office."

……

laugh--

The wide and thick soundproof door rises from the bottom to ensure that no sound inside the house leaks to the outside world.

"I'm sorry I didn't make an appointment with you in advance."

Inside the room, without Ingrid asking any more questions, the worried girl had already frankly stated the purpose of her visit.

"I came to you mainly because I hope you can help me talk to the central command. I... don't like the false propaganda on the Internet recently.

Those military achievements were clearly made by the instructors and the special squadron..."

"He doesn't care about that."

Unexpectedly, before Walqiulei could finish her words, Ingrid interrupted the girl, which was rare, and put an end to the topic she was about to talk about at length.

“Anderson should have already told you that the central government hopes that there will be a commander who can stand out like a lone hero and inspire people.

And you, a new recruit, a brave warrior, and a beautiful woman, if you are also unique in your combat performance, you will be a perfect example for publicity.”

"Then why can't it be the instructor?!"

After getting a clearer answer from the CEO, the dissatisfaction that Huaer Qiulei had been suppressing in her heart for days finally burst out like a volcano.

She was jointly dubbed the "Ark Hero" by Tetra and the Central Government. Whether on the Internet or on the radio, you can see reports about her 24 hours a day. This behavior, comparable to the star-making in the entertainment industry, is simply tormenting for an officer with a strong sense of self-esteem.

"If other commanders knew that my military exploits were all fake, what would they think?"

“They will gloat over the misfortune.”

Ingrid said this, strolling back to her desk and answering the girl's questions in a calm tone while browsing the forms coordinated by the Finance Department.

"With your current status and position, go look through the headquarters' second-level archives and learn about the damage records of the Ark's last counterattack on the ground 27 years ago.

Take stock of the political backgrounds of the victims and write me a report."

"?"

Walqiulei never expected that Ingrid would give her a "homework" after listening to her debate, which would add fuel to her non-stop report writing career in the past few days.

"But……"

The girl wanted to say something to try to save her ideals, but the Queen's oppressive look told her that the topic of "falsely claiming military merit" was over.

Correspondingly, the sound of the electromagnetic slide rail of the office soundproof door once again sounded, representing the farewell of the guests.
