Steel steam and flame

Cassia stopped a limo and rushed to Lina. He got off the car not far from the small hotel.

This place is more remote than the hotel where Cassia stayed, so much so that the temperature of the air seems to be a few degrees lower than there. It is bitingly cold. People walking on the street early in the morning are shrinking their necks, regretting why they didn't think of it when they went out. Put on an extra piece of clothing.

Seeing that there was no one at the counter of the small hotel, Cassia walked straight up the stairs to Lina's room and knocked on the door.

She also woke up very early. When Linna opened the door, everything was ready and placed on the table.

Cassia walked in and closed the door, put down her luggage, and then took out the map and spread it out. There is a large area circled with a red pen, which is the Black Fort. In addition to the eye-catching red circle on the map, there are dozens of winding routes. They all use the Black Fort as the gathering point and spread out in divergent circles. Some are connected to the empire, and some are over the continuous mountains and connected to the gray area. These are all railway lines that can leave Brino directly, and almost all are high-speed express lines. The Black Castle is a landmark building in Brino. On the one hand, it serves as the largest hotel and opera house in Brino. On the other hand, it also alludes to the location of Brino's railway transportation center.

The largest transportation point in Brino is the Black Fort Station with the same name, which is located next to the Black Fort Hotel. Just like the trading building, there is always daylight here, and there is no concept of night. Under the lamps lifted up by the tall iron pillars, it was illuminated brightly every moment. This is also a gathering point for Blino's lights. It is called Black Castle Station. It may be more appropriate to change it to a night station.

In Cassia and Lina's plan, the railway lines represented by these red lines are the routes they use to escape at the last moment. The timetables of various trains with different functions have been memorized in their minds. Judging from the expected process in the plan, after Linna rescues her sister Silla, she will immediately take one of the trains to leave Blino, go straight to the gray area on the other side of the mountains, and then return to the flames Go to the alliance.

Cassia is not the case. He also has the mission of the military school and cannot leave as decisively as Lina. If possible, after rescuing Silla, he would find a secluded place to live in Brino for a few days, escape the most terrifying storm, and then come out to plan his mission again. Those marked railway lines were plans he would consider only under forced circumstances.

"The station and the hotel are very close to each other. I suspect that during the more than ten years of Blino's development, the ground between the two has been hollowed out." Linna took out a cup from the small locker. The half-drunk bottle of wine was opened and the aroma immediately filled the room. "According to what you said, Imperial Mining Company is a company that mainly mines all kinds of minerals, and it is also very proficient in various mining machinery. It must be easy for them to get the area under the ground between the two. Right. And the construction of the railway line was nominally funded by the Empire, but secretly it must have been the Empire Minerals and the Three Primary Colors Group. Just look at the management agencies stationed here that represent the Empire. They are completely It’s just a decoration, and it doesn’t have much right to interfere with the construction of Blino.”

"Do you want it?" Lina poured half a glass of wine and handed it to Cassia.

Cassia shook his head, listened to Lina's words, and fell into thinking. This was a problem that he had not yet considered. With the sound of the underground mine tunnels dug out in the Gerun Oasis and the huge mining machinery, this possibility became inevitable in the next moment. He took a look at the other information on the side of the map. They were documents related to the main target of this time, Franli. They were all bought from the trading building yesterday. Being able to do these things under the eyes of Imperial Mining Company, the forces behind the trading building seem to be quite complex.

Today's party is a special event for Franli. There will definitely be a lot of people responsible for security, and there will be no shortage of powerful surgeons. Wanting to rescue Silla within the scope of their control, the head-on plan was rejected by the two of them at the first opportunity.

Looking for opportunities in the chaos was the only feasible solution they came up with after thinking about it for a long time.

Because they were sure that today's party would not go well because there were too many people mixed in. This is Brino, and the deterrent power of all the major forces is there, but it may be at the lowest level in the empire. What is pursued here is power and money. People with guns in their hands will feel more confident when speaking.

And the group of people who attacked the Three Primary Color Group and the Imperial Mining Company not long ago will definitely not let go of this opportunity to create a chaotic situation that is beneficial to them. Don't know what their purpose is yet. Could it be the consignment from the trade fair held in the middle of the party? Being able to fight against two big companies on their home court, Cassia thought their goal shouldn't be small.

When a conflict occurs between the two and the flames of tonight are ignited, that is Cassia's chance.

Cassia looked at the introduction about Franli one by one, as well as all the things related to him that had happened in the past few years. Francois was not born here, he came here with his father. Through the events connected by time recorded on the paper in front of him, Cassia seemed to see the twisted change in a person's personality after he gained sudden rights. There is an inevitable connection between a person's behavior and personality. Driven by his personality or psychology, some things will inevitably happen somewhere on the timeline.

"What if Frangli didn't bring Silla to the ball?" Lina stood behind Cassia and asked suddenly after finishing a glass of wine.

"I think the probability of this happening is zero. Sheila is your sister. I don't think she will lose much to other women in terms of beauty." Cassia said, and Lina smiled as she thanked the compliment, "According to With Franco's character, I don't think he would give up this opportunity to show off. And if he doesn't bring it out, it won't affect us. The signal generator has a limited range, which gives us a better chance. Franli's residence is in Blino, less than half an hour's drive away. If the situation changes by then, we will rush there. The highlight of tonight will definitely be the party at the Black Fort. I think the defensive strength there is also It won’t be any difficulty for us.”

"I hope so." Lina was unsure.

"No need to hope, the direction of events will not be random, they are like clocks. On a dial, there must be a connection between them." Cassia replied.
