"Are you... okay?"
Misha spoke softly, looking at Maria in front of her with a complicated look.
Maria patted Keobe's head, letting her let go of herself temporarily and then faced Misha.
"But a fight like that can't hurt me... Where's that brother of yours?"
Because there were other people present, Maria considerately did not call the other person "Broken Bone" directly, but changed her words.
Judging from Misha's surprised look when she saw Broken Bones, it was obvious that not many people knew that Broken Bones was her brother.
No one should be able to guess what it is called.
"Alex...he left first."
When Misha heard Maria suddenly mention Alex, her mood dropped noticeably.
But she eventually became much stronger. After being depressed for a while, she raised her head seriously.
"Thank you so much this time, Miss Maria. If it weren't for your protection, the situation would definitely be much worse..."
“I just did what I wanted to do.”
Maria shook her head and did not accept the girl's thanks.
But after a moment of silence, he asked again.
"What are you going to do next?"
"I will..."
Misha's expression was hesitant and her eyes became evasive.
To be honest, she really didn't know what to do next.
At the beginning, her father gave her a large amount of information and asked her to protect it... But the problem was that the other party did not tell her at all who the information was given to and how long it had to be protected.
She could only wander around aimlessly... until she came to this Dragon Gate.
From the current perspective, perhaps following Longmen and handing over her things to Longmen is the best option... At least she can apply for a certain degree of asylum.
But based on her experiences over the past few days, she also realized that Longmen's management was too strict for the infected.
She has suffered a lot of discrimination during this period.
To be honest, she found it hard to believe this Longmen.
but……
Even if she didn't believe in Longmen, she still had someone she could trust here...
"Miss Maria."
Misha clenched her fists, raised her head, and looked determined as if she had made some kind of resolution.
"Can I ask you a favor?"
Chapter 74 Maria's Fatigue
Maria and Misha whispered to each other for a while, and then the two separated.
After the separation, Misha also agreed to Amiya's plan and expressed her willingness to follow the Lungmen Guard Bureau.
But the prerequisite is that the Longmen Guard Bureau must ensure its own safety, and she will only tell the Longmen managers what she knows, and she will not say anything to other people.
As for the latter, Chen and others have no say.
But they are still confident in protecting each other's safety.
After all, it is the Longmen Guard Bureau. If they can't do this, there is no point in doing it.
Although Misha was not satisfied with this answer, she had no choice.
After all, she really couldn't make any decisions.
After seeing that the matter had been settled, Amiya's Rhodes Island also breathed a sigh of relief.
Penguin Logistics’ mission has been completed here.
Everyone waved their hands and turned to leave.
It is worth mentioning that Ceobe, the operator now affiliated with Rhodes Island, is very attached to Maria. When they are about to part, her eyes are pitiful, as if she hopes Maria will not leave.
This action also made Amiya, who was standing beside her, smile embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry... Miss Ceobe isn't usually like this."
"It doesn't matter."
Maria shook her head, turned her head to rub Ceobe's little head, then leaned over and whispered a few words into her ear.
Then Keobe's expression improved a little, and she loosened her arms that were tightly holding Maria's waist, her face hesitant.
Maria turned her head and looked at Amiya beside her.
"Rhodes Island... they should welcome friends of the staff to visit, right?"
"Eh? Of course... of course."
After listening to Maria's words, Amiya was stunned for a while.
Although everyone has different personalities in daily life, they are all very gentle people.
This was the first time she had met someone as strong as Maria, and she even began to stutter when speaking.
But fortunately, Maria's strength was just simple words.
After making sure that she could still visit Keobe, Maria reached out and rubbed her little ear for the last time before turning around and leaving with a reluctant look in her eyes.
Others also left this dangerous place one after another.
The people from Longmen turned around and took Misha into their car.
The Rhodes Island operators quietly left the scene.
However, the people from Penguin Logistics were a little at a loss.
"Go back first."
In the end, it was Maria who gave the order.
After all, isn't the mission of them all to deliver Misha to the Guards?
Now that things have been done, we can go back.
As for Maria, she did not leave with Texas and the others, but stayed where she was.
Here, the fiery New Year was still looking at her with a smile.
"Did you finish it? Then let's go get something to eat?"
“…Not yet.”
Watching Texas and others go away, Maria shook her head silently.
For others, that was the end of the story.
But for Maria, it's not over yet.
"Oh?" Nian didn't seem surprised. "Is it because of the thing that little girl gave you?"
"you saw it?"
"Hey, my eyes are fine~"
Nian didn't hide anything from Maria. He just nodded and looked at the small black thing that looked like an iron bar that Maria took out in surprise.
"Is this... a secret key?"
"Secret key?"
Maria was a little confused.
Nian, who was standing aside, was explaining.
"You can think of it as a mobile city-state's launcher... Although a city-state can't be activated with just one secret key, it should at least be able to control an entire city... Did the girl just give it to you?"
Nian was a little surprised.
You must know that on the land of Terra, due to the existence of natural disasters, there are very few environments where people can survive stably, and most people live on mobile city-states.
Although the mobile city-state is huge, its space is ultimately limited.
In order to avoid large-scale transfers, people invented linked city-states.
That is, a bunch of platforms are put together to form a city-state.
The advantage of this is that they can be linked and merged with each other.
Whoever controls the key to launching these platforms effectively controls the city-state.
The importance of this thing to the entire mobile city is self-evident.
And the other party actually gave such a secret key to Maria?
This shows the other party's trust in Maria.
"But it was also a smart choice... She knew she wasn't capable of protecting the key, so she gave it to a trustworthy and powerful person... That little guy is quite smart."
Nian smiled and nodded.
Maria continued.
"She felt that the information she knew was of little significance, but this key was a real asset."
"But she didn't trust anyone else...so she gave the key to me and asked me to handle it."
After saying that, Maria silently put the secret key in her arms.
She might not yet understand the significance of such a key, but she knew that it must be very dangerous... This was probably the core reason why the girl was being fought over by two different forces.
To be honest, Maria hadn't figured out what to do with such a key.
But at least, if you keep it with you, no one should be able to snatch it away.
As for the task the girl entrusted to him...
Maria was silent.
Nian, who was standing by, saw Maria thinking and smiled.
"Is it something that must be done now?"
"It's not..."
"That's good... let's go get something to eat together?"
Maria was invited again.
This was the third invitation since they met.
To be honest, Maria was confused by the frequent invitations.
This should be the first time I meet this person, right?
Why is the other party so enthusiastic?
Is it just a simple personality?
Or……
"you know me?"
Maria was a little confused.
Under the current circumstances, she could only guess that she had simulated the incident one day in the future and got to know the other party.
But Nian shook his head.
"Today is the first time we meet~"
"Then why did you..."
"Didn't I say it? I think we are especially destined to be together!"
This fiery girl is as passionate as she appears to be.
