Steel steam and flame

"Mr. Cassia!" Mond greeted, with a glow on his face.

Cassia nodded, opened the dormitory door, and let Mond go in to talk. Without any extra chat, Mond went directly to the topic. He came out of the school hospital early in the morning and received a notice from Ye Jielin, which was the news of the return of the third batch of personnel. Two days later, he also took a high-speed train and came over. Mond brought detailed information and wanted to hand it over to Cassia.

"Eldest sister Lin still can't come out now. We have to wait until the school starts." Mond put the printed information on the table. "The same goes for Dellin and the other three. Although their identities have been transferred to the military school, But because there is no order from the school that requires them to come in advance, they are still staying at the family station because they want to wait for the third group of people to come back before making specific plans."

"The third group of people should be smaller. If there are no casualties among those who go, there will be less than fifteen people left. The actual number must be much less, but ordinary people don't need to care. The eldest sister Lin is worried that one of them Hessler, according to the information we received, he should be the strongest among the eldest sister Lin’s phase, and the operation is in the middle of the second phase.”

"Then she also means to take action halfway?" Cassia briefly flipped through the information and wrote down the smiling face in the color photo. It wasn't a formal photo shoot, it was more like someone else secretly took the photo from the side. It was very hurried and they just took the time to take a picture of that face.

He is a very strong man, with an average height, and there is nothing out of the ordinary about his appearance. He has a square face with an excited smile. He is holding a long spear about the same height as him. The material is very good. Like steel. Cassia felt something familiar, but there was only one photo, not the actual object. He couldn't tell what this familiar feeling was, he just felt that he had seen the same thing somewhere.

The background is only a blur of white. If you look carefully, the blurred background is actually a big blizzard that Cassia has never seen before. You can't call them snowflakes, they should be called snow flakes. Each piece is about the size of several thumbnails, and is a very pure white color penetrated by light.

There is also a half-person-high lamp on the side of Hessler, which gives Cassia a familiar and warm feeling. That is a very ancient thing. In places like Manoma, you may only see it in major museums.

It was an enlarged version of the gas lamp, and Cassia clearly remembered the details of some key parts. It was almost the same as the one he used in the small town, it was directly enlarged and processed.

There was a white flame burning inside the transparent glass. The light was very strong, but in the face of the huge blizzard that blocked the entire sky, this light could only extend less than ten meters. In the photo, Cassia could tell that it was taken during the day, but outside the light of the gas light, there was only darkness.

"Is this the extreme area?" Apart from a piece of heavy snow, Cassia didn't know what the definition of the extreme area was. These things were not enough to satisfy his curiosity.

"Eldest Sister Lin's meaning is not clear." Mond waited for Cassia to read the information and said with some hesitation, "The message was not completely conveyed, or in other words, Eldest Sister Lin's side has not yet figured out Hessler's specific attitude. . But my eldest sister Lin asked me to tell Mr. Cassia that two years ago, she thought Hessle was a pretty good person, and there was no obvious conflict with Hessle."

"'The things we are pursuing are completely different,' is what my eldest sister Lin said." Mond did not show his own emotions and imitated Ye Jielin's tone at that time, "He did not give any specific instructions, he just said, 'If there is a chance, I will do it halfway. We met on the way, we can have a chat.’ Then the communication was disconnected.”

The information stated the specific time when Hessler and his party returned, which was at noon. The location is still the same train station.

"I will pay attention and I will inform you in two days." Cassia nodded, thought for a moment and said, "There is no need to worry about Knox. If you contact Ye Jielin, you can tell him like this."

Mond nodded: "Mr. Cassia, who are Knox and the others?"

"At this time, it is probably on its way to the Blue River." Cassia smiled. Mond was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he came to Cassia very early today, but there was no one in the room. Not long ago, he was thinking about what Cassia would do when she got up so early. But now that we think about it, the fact should be that Cassia was not at the military school all night, and he just came back from outside the school now.

"That's good." Mond breathed out.

Ietta returned to the secret station, and Lyle was sitting upright on the chair. On the table next to him were a black leather briefcase and a silver iron box. Putting his slightly fair hand on the silver box, Lyle saw Iyeta coming back, stood up and bent down to say hello.

"Master Hai asked me to apologize on his behalf." Lyle was sincere, but there was no visible expression on his face.

"No need, let him do it by himself next time." Iyetta took off the dress she was wearing, revealing the curved and scabbed wound on her left shoulder, as well as the pink girl's outfit that she also didn't have time to change out of. The clothes were also exposed in the cold air in the room. But Lyle just glanced at the wound, and then his eyes returned to Iyetta's face.

"What about the third group of personnel?" Iyeta sat opposite Lyle. Haidi's subordinate is a bit like a cold machine. Having met him several times, Iyeta rarely feels emotional fluctuations from him.

"Yes, the third group of people. What Master Hai means is that school is about to start. I hope Miss Iyetta can start as soon as possible. One reason is that in terms of time, Master Hai doesn't want it to drag on too long. The other reason is Yes, some people above have expressed their dissatisfaction with the accidental death of a large number of returnees. They have no evidence directly pointing to Master Hai, but if they want to deal with and target Master Hai, they can do so without leaving any trace. Including me In the past few days, a group of Master Hai's subordinates will leave Manoma one after another and go to other areas to rest for a while. Miss Iyetta, you should know that the Hill family where Master Hai belongs is very concerned about hiding and assassination exploration. Things are the best things. We don't have the protection of our status, we are all members of the Hill family. Killing your own people cannot be called 'killing', they call it 'punishment'."

"We will not stay in Manoma for long. Master Hai hopes that Miss Iyetta can make more use of our advantage during this period to help eliminate the third batch of people who have returned."

A smile appeared on Iyeta's face. The big family always likes to find many good excuses for the things they do. Every family is like this, and her Astus family is the same. It is not unreasonable for the royal family of the empire to be reduced to what it is now from a thousand years ago. Ieta does not have a strong sense of belonging to her family.

"This is the antidote. It's been a long time since the agreed communication time. Master Hai prepared these and asked me to hand them over to you." Lyle pushed the silver box and black leather briefcase over, "This toxin is in Hill It is very common in the family and is not a mixed and formulated biotoxin.”

Iyetta nodded and said thank you. She opened her briefcase and began to read the finger-thick stack of information inside.

Bolei arrived at the military school in the morning, went to the office to get information, and then continued the meeting for nearly a whole morning. The school is about to start, and another batch of new students are arriving at the school this year, and tedious things are quickly piling up. Moreover, the Imperial Military Headquarters is becoming more and more anxious and has begun to ask for people from the Military Headquarters School.

The long meeting finally ended in silence, and Bo was always the last person to leave.

While still sorting out the scattered information in the meeting, Xemiah knocked on the door of the conference room with a "dah" sound.

"You are so laid-back." Without even looking, his voice became thicker and thicker, like a hemp rope that had not been carefully kneaded.

"I've been waiting outside for almost an hour." Himya replied with a smile, "Those old professors asked you to go to them after the meeting. They said they discovered something new."

In the biological experiment building, when Bordeaux and Xemia arrived, a group of old professors were still playing with a bunch of glass experimental equipment.

Seeing the boy coming, the old professors moved aside and took a few more glances at Himiya.

"If it's about Cassia, there's no need to worry about her identity." Bolei said, closing the door of the laboratory.
