? In the evening, Munich, Germany.

Skylark and his team successfully arrived at Knife's headquarters in the outskirts of Munich, a medieval traditional castle building surrounded by mountains and rivers.Only Mrs. K and her two entourages came to greet her. There were only a small number of people, but for Skylark, a simple ceremony was enough.Even when Mrs. K proposed to clean up Lark first, he interrupted her directly and forcefully in accordance with his usual style, and only asked to see people.

"Okay, in this case, let Triss entertain you." Mrs. K took the initiative to take away Bambi and Karova who came later, and told Mitrell to treat the guests well before leaving. She blinked.

...Yes yes, I see.Mitrell replied helplessly in her heart.

After everyone withdrew, only Skylark and her were left in the neat forest road in front of the castle.Mitrell knew that Lark was looking for Ai Lili, so she led the way without saying a word.Through the forest road under a large spruce tree, and through the huge fountain in front of the castle, she led Skylark to the side stairs of the castle.

The castle is composed of a main body and two wings of buildings. There are towers at the four corners. Between the main body and other buildings is an empty and trimmed grassland. There are many artistic sculptures scattered on the grassland.The overall style of the castle is simple and bright, with fresh and elegant tones, exuding a rare spring-like aura that was rare in the Middle Ages.

The tower in the northeast corner of the castle is where the scientific research team is located.

Knife is internally divided into an action group and a logistics group, which can be subdivided into several action and logistics groups according to different responsibilities.The scientific research group is mainly responsible for technical support such as technology research and development and actual combat testing, and belongs to the logistics group.There are only six members in the scientific research team, and Ai Lili is one of them.

Each of these six people can be regarded as an expert in their research field.Ai Lili specializes in weapons research and development, and is also a computer expert, so she went to Italy to serve as technical support and logistics personnel during the mission to capture Wayne Cote.

"Ai Lili is a member of our organization, and we have the right to reserve the right to dispose of her, so Mr. Skylark, please forgive me, I will not hand over anyone to you."

Stopping in front of the quaint arched door at the bottom of the tower, Mitrell solemnly declared this point with a distant attitude.Skylark glanced down at her and snorted, contemptuously and conceitedly.He didn't have to speak at all, and she felt the impatience coming to her.

Mitrell turned her head, sighed softly, pressed the password next to the door, and pressed her fingerprint on the machine. The seemingly ordinary and inconspicuous arched door suddenly made a puffing sound, and the whole pan moved to the right, and retreated into the track in the crack of the wall— —It turned out to be an airtight door ten centimeters thick.Behind the door is a long and narrow spiral staircase with mottled walls, just like the dilapidated castle where vampires live in movies.

In fact, it is because the funds of the scientific research team are spent on the laboratory and the security system. As for other places, they have to make do with it.

The tower is about 20 meters high, and the inside is so old that there is no elevator, so you can only walk up it step by step on two legs. Ai Lili's group of scientists who have no common sense usually rely on climbing up and down to exercise. Speaking of which, she It seems like they have an interesting unwritten rule when I think of it.Because they always bury their heads in the laboratory and stay at home, their living habits are irregular, and they are prone to physical problems, so if someone can't climb the stairs three times, they will probably have to be sent by other colleagues to the infirmary for physical examination.

It took them less than 3 minutes to arrive at the box weapon development room in the middle of the tower.

The boss did not make an internal announcement in advance. Today, only a few people know about Hibari Kyoya's visit. According to the boss, it is to avoid alarming others, and Hibari himself agrees with this point.

Mitrell pressed the button on the video intercom by the door, and its working indicator light lit up. She stood in the camera and waited for a long time, but no one inside came to answer the door.Only the members of the scientific research team knew how to open this door, and this group of creative people often changed the password form without thinking, and once even blocked the boss who came to inspect the door.Outsiders can only call them and ask them to open the door.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no response.

Skylark raised an eyebrow.Mitrell turned her head and gave him a consoling smile: "Maybe they are asleep, they often do this, I have a way to wake them up." She took out the pistol from the holster on her back waist, loaded it, and turned around Backing away, Yunque naturally stood leisurely behind, watching her straighten her right hand, move quickly, and raise her gun to aim at the camera of the walkie-talkie.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Three shots were fired, and the walkie-talkie fell from the wall smoking and fell to the dusty floor, making a tragic click.Randomly, the alarm bell at the top of the corridor they were in rang loudly.

Mitrell withdrew her gun and turned to smile at Skylark: "To prevent accidents, their alarm circuit is very sensitive."

Skylark smiled but didn't speak.

With the sound of jets, the door was opened from the inside.

A tired red-haired woman with chicken nest hair and two panda eyes rushed out. She was wearing a T-shirt and trousers, with a bunch of keys and various small tools hanging on both sides of her belt. She was barefoot and waved her hands angrily. The long mechanical arm squeaked at Mitrell in front of him.

"I rely on ¥%#&*...how is it you!" Ai Lili held her breath and kept cursing for more than a minute before she stopped.She rushed too fast just now, she didn't pay attention to who was outside, and she didn't realize it was Mitrell until she took a breath.

When I saw her, I naturally thought of the superconductor prototype box she held.Thinking of the superconductor prototype box, she wished to pester her more, so that she would give up.

"...So it was you. Long time no see, you came to me on your own initiative. I love you so much." Ai Lili's attitude changed 360 degrees, and she suddenly smiled like a flower, her whole body jingled, and she immediately pounced on honey. On Trill.

Behind Mitrell was Skylark, she had no room to retreat and dodge, so she had to watch Ai Lili hanging on her waist like a koala.Fortunately, my height is enough.

At this moment, Skylark passed them both lightly and swiftly, and stepped into the room.His movements were so fast that Ai Lili only felt a gust of wind blowing across her cheeks, raised her swollen eyelids and looked around, but nothing unusual happened.

Seeing Lark enter, Mitrell patted Ai Lili on the back, and when she finally stood down, she explained the matter clearly from beginning to end.

Ai Lili tilted her head, her bloodshot eyes showed deep confusion.

"I'm not interested in anything other than research and development of weapons. Above—hey, I answered, can you show me that one? Just one look, one look!"

Mitrell withdrew her hands and carefully looked at Ai Lili from head to toe with her eyes.When the nervous Ai Lili was terrified by her smiling eyes, Mitrell suddenly flashed past her, striding to the side of Skylark without looking back.

Skylark is looking around the surrounding environment.

Compared with his private laboratory, this laboratory is slightly inferior in scale and equipment, but it is already considered very good.He sharply noticed the half-finished weapon on the huge robotic arm console.Looks like some kind of crap cobbled together though.

This is a busy workplace, with leftover fast food and stinky clothes piled up everywhere, Skylark felt someone coming from behind, and at the same time, talked to the woman who came over.

"Mr. Skylark, if you have any questions, you can ask them now."

Yunque waved his hand casually, and said in a condescending tone: "Call her over." Ai Lili was pushed to Yunque's eyes inexplicably.

He only asked one question.

"During your stay in Italy, did anything special happen to you?"

Ai Lili has a superb memory, not to mention that her life is very monotonous. After understanding the whole story, she immediately understood the key point of Yunque's question.So after asking this question, she fell into deep thought for a long time, and finally shook her head blankly.

"During my mission in Italy, I almost stayed in that basement and didn't leave. The only people I met were two members of the same mission. I couldn't think of anything particularly unusual."

Skylark squinted his eyes and looked elsewhere.He stroked his smooth chin and thought about it.

In Italy, Skylark sent the hackers who worked for him to check the computer equipment in the basement. At the same time, his subordinates checked more surveillance, but still found no signs of information leakage.If it is not people leaking secrets, but stealing secrets from the outside through tools, it is very likely that people will not be aware of it, and mobile tools are easy to be destroyed.

It seems that there is almost no need to pursue this clue.

The night is as cool as water.Coming out of the cramped tower, Mitrell walked silently behind the skylark. The night wind in the suburbs is always colder, blowing rustlingly from the spruce forest, blowing across the gradually yellowing lawn, blowing On the human body, it is extremely cold.

However, the two people with their own thoughts walked one after the other without talking or communicating.

It wasn't until Lark first woke up from his contemplation, and was about to ask Mitrell to prepare board and lodging, that the woman behind him suddenly jumped up and let out a low cry.

"What did you find?" Skylark turned around and asked calmly.

"It's, it's not really a discovery." Mitrell couldn't hide her excitement and doubts, her voice was suppressed, her cheeks were flushed, "I just think there's something wrong with Ai Lili, and I'm a little concerned. You don't know, like them People in these scientific research groups, because they have to manage valuable experimental equipment for personal use, are generally equipped with keys to enter and exit those places or open the panels. They are always careless in this regard, and the boss clearly stipulates that they must be 24 hours a day. Hang it on your body. Ai Lili used to use a rubber duckling as a key chain, but I glanced at it just now, and it has been replaced with a plastic elephant."

Skylark smiled: "Maybe."

Ai Lili and the others didn't bring their mobile phones, and there was no answer when they called, so she immediately returned to the tower.

Even though it was a very small thing, there were many possibilities, maybe it was just a coincidence, maybe it was just an accident, but her mood was very excited by it.

The organization she trusts and relies on will not let her down. ?
