Overturned Tower

Bing Shui cursed.
She didn't have that kind of affection for Qunqing in the first place, and it was closer to the closeness and trust she had for her senior or elder brother.
Of course, if it takes a long time, it is possible to fall in love with each other... After all, there are not many reliable and excellent opposite sex around her.But it definitely doesn't feel right now.
However, from this perspective, Minister Delphinium's warning is still meaningful.
After all, Qunqing is Xia's big cousin.Based on her relationship with Xia, I'm afraid she won't have too little contact with Qun Qing.
Knowing that Ultramarine has become famous now, it can effectively reduce the waste of feelings - the love of a girl is a consumable, and if it is consumed too much, it will not be so easy to fall in love with others sincerely.
She will never poach other people's corners.
After all, Bingshui's tutor is very good, and she still has that level of self-esteem.
So Bing Shui nodded slightly to Delphinium, indicating that she understood.
The eyes of the two just touched each other for a while, and they both understood each other's meaning.
"Morning, Miss Bingshui."
Russell greeted the ice water, and scratched Delphinium's palm with his fingers, motioning for him to let go.
"Good morning, Miss Bingshui."
Delphinium let go of Russell's hand while making a gentle sound to her, and generously grabbed Russell's tail that was turning around because of shyness.
As soon as Russell's tail was caught, he swished it out of her hand, swept it over and patted her arm lightly.
Seeing the stimulated and gradually erected tail behind Russell, Delphinium couldn't help showing a mischievous smile.
She grabbed Russell's furry tail again, and seeing Russell's resentful glance back, finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
Looking at this scene, Bing Shui couldn't help but sighed.
I'm not a dog, why do you feed me dog food as soon as I enter the door...
But her previous nervousness was relieved a lot because of this.
"By the way," Delphinium thought of something, and added to Bing Shui, "If you want to tidy up the office, it will probably take a lot of energy.
"Qunqing's physical strength is not that good, so I called you two from the executive department to go with you. If you need to lift any heavy objects, let them do it."
"My physical strength is actually not bad..."
Russell couldn't help arguing: "At least it's not that bad. Ordinary heavy things can still be lifted."
"It's true...Mr. Qun Qing's prosthetic body modification is not high, and the prosthetic body assembled is still biased towards technology. I didn't think carefully about this."
Bing Shui glanced at Russell, but nodded in agreement: "Then I will trouble you, Minister Delphinium."
"Hey……"
Russell groaned in dissatisfaction.
But it was just a shout—because he actually knew that his physical strength was really not good enough.
He is indeed very agile. If he bursts out of speed, he can even climb the wall and window from the first floor, and climb up to more than ten floors in one go; the speed at full speed is the fastest, and even people without prosthetic eyes can only see Afterimage.
But if it is lifting or carrying heavy loads, he is indeed not so strong.
One of the reasons for his agility is that his bones and joints are flexible enough due to the spiritual disease.
The bones that tend to be soft and the muscles that are talented in explosive power are more likely to be injured if the load is too high.
Delphinium had finished announcing while they were still talking.
"Their prosthetic body modification is quite high, and they are also very [reliable]. You can talk to them directly if you have anything."
She re-read the word "reliable," and Russell nodded knowingly.
Delphinium means that these members of the executive department are "real members of the executive department" who took the initiative to take the exam, not the cannon fodder fished out of the prison.
Although the work and accommodation of these two kinds of people are mixed, they are still different in nature.
Soon, the door of the Special Executive Department was opened again.
The first one to come in was a tall, mature woman with a long brown-red ponytail and a ponytail of the same color.
Her feet, shoulders, and waist have all been transformed with prosthetics. Not only does she have strong running adaptability, but she can also jump from a height of seven or eight floors without injury.
Following her was a young man who was half a head taller than Russell, with short dark brown hair, black cat ears, and glasses.
After he entered, he greeted Russell happily.
"It's you..."
Russell nodded with a smile, and introduced to Bingshui: "This is a symbol of autumn leaves, and this is a night cat. They are very reliable companions."
The autumn leaves symbolize having wanted to be an athlete before—an athlete is not allowed to implant all but the most basic type of prosthetic body.They exist to show "the limit of what human beings can do", and they are usually those who are highly spiritualized, or those who have received many positive effects from spirituality.
For example, the symbol of autumn leaves with only two legs, because the degree of kinship is not high, it is almost impossible for her to run past the horse-type kinship athlete who has four legs and super high kinship.
So later, she injured her leg during a game, could only fit a prosthetic body and retired.But at that time, she was transferred to the executive department of Tianen Group.
Compared with her four-legged counterparts, she also has her own advantages.That is small and flexible.
She is particularly good at hunting people down, and her awakened psionic powers are also related to the chase.
The night owl is actually a long-eared owl. His psychic power can change the shape of his ears at will, and obtain more information through synesthesia.
For example, he can "hear" the shape of the architectural space, and he can barely "hear" the smell of others.
Compared with his soul relatives, he prefers cats.So it's okay, he will make his ears into the shape of cat's ears... It is for this reason that he has a pretty good relationship with Russell.
But the difference between the executive department and the special executive department is that the level of psionic energy in the executive department is generally not high.
Their psychic powers are completely restricted—the group only allows them to use one or two levels lower because of the level they have blue-shifted to.
The fifth level of blue shift is already considered the peak level of ordinary people.But they can only use third- and fourth-level spiritual powers, and the advantage is that they will not lose control.It is basically enough to use a psionic chip to exchange psionic energy.
These are usually the same people who go out to work in the uptown area.
These members of the executive department who have officially entered the job can basically use about three levels of psionic power after a long time.Among the people transferred from the prison, half of them have a probability of about one level of psionic ability, but almost none of them can reach two or more levels.
After all, if the blue shift value is high enough, they won't commit crimes -- crimes won't be caught so easily, and most of them can be profited smoothly.
"Let me drive," Yemao pushed his glasses, "We are a bit crowded, so don't squeeze the subway."
"Actually, there is no way to squeeze. The autumn leaf symbol is too heavy. You will be fined if you enter the ordinary subway."
Russell looked at Bingshui: "Speaking of which, Miss Bingshui. Did you come by car?"
"I came here," Bing Shui joked, "If I came to drive, I was a little worried that someone would kill me."
I don't really think it's all a joke...
Russell thought to himself.
Chapter 36 Your hunch is pretty accurate
Considering that four people were riding in a floating car, it was somewhat crowded... So in the end Yemao drove an ordinary car.
The space inside the floating car is actually not small, but it has not considered the problem of carrying and carrying too many people from the beginning of its design.
Its back seat has a small table for placing drinks, and a cabinet that combines a refrigerator and a water bar.
Whether it is chilled wine or cola, or coffee and tea that need to be brewed with hot water, they can be taken at any time.
But that's about it.
The oil storage capacity of the floating vehicle is not too strong, and this is also because the floating vehicle does not need to travel too far.
The moment when it consumes the most fuel is when it is rising and falling.
It is also at this time that it is most likely to make people dizzy, and it is also the most test of the price of the floating car... The higher the price, the better the experience of the floating car, but it will also consume more fuel.
And when it is driving normally, because it is flying in a straight line and the speed is very fast, it does not need to store a lot of fuel - at least it is enough to fly from one end of the floating island to the other.Because the flight distance is high enough, the trajectory can be changed at any time, and the speed is so fast that it cannot be aimed at all, let alone locked by psychic energy, so there is no need to consider too much bulletproof performance.
Based on this design for daily use, the weight and volume of the floating car should be reduced as much as possible, so the load will naturally be reduced.
So the floating car cut off the co-pilot and has no trunk.
The front row of the floating car is as sharp and streamlined as the nose of an airplane... The rear row is relatively wide, like a sofa, but if it is decent, it can only seat two people at most.
In fact, three people can sit together if they are crowded together. After all, Russell and Ice Water are not too big.
But the symbol of autumn leaves still strongly rejected the floating car.
It's not that she's shy and squeezed together with Russell... The reason she said is that she has a little psychological shadow on the floating car.
But Russell felt that she was still worried about breaking Delphinium's floating car.
Akiba symbolizes this kind of prosthetic body that has undergone super-high-strength transformation. Because its own weight is completely beyond the standard, it is usually not allowed to go on an airship, let alone use an elevator.Even Skytrain and buses are not allowed... because they not only wear out public equipment, but also cause unnecessary danger.
It is not even allowed to run at full speed on the street unless it is "necessary to perform official duties", and the speed is usually limited... because if you run at full speed, you will crush the road, and you may cause damage like a humanoid dump truck. cul-de-sac.
If she rides in an official floating car, it may damage the group's floating car; if she rides in Delphinium's private car, it may damage her private car.
Even if it is a car that runs on land, it is still very difficult to pick out the one that the symbol of autumn leaves can use.After all, among the remodeled prosthetics, the Akiba symbol is also the heaviest class.
They finally chose the one with the strongest bulletproof performance and the strongest load-bearing capacity—that is, the director's escort vehicle.
When human directors travel and cannot use the floating vehicle, they need bodyguards to protect them.But the number of people who can sit in the car is limited after all... So there will be this kind of escort car in charge of opening the road and accompanying them.
——It’s not so much an escort vehicle, but a better-looking troop carrier.
Because the seats inside are not comfortable at all, they are pretty hard hard seats.Fortunately, it is spacious enough, at least not crowded together.This is also prepared to carry the weight of the prosthetic person.
"Speaking of it, Ultramarine."
Sitting next to Russell, the symbol of autumn leaves said to him enthusiastically: "You haven't been in an escort car yet, have you?"
"really."
Russell nodded: "When I travel, I usually use a floating car. Because I want to pursue speed... If I don't pursue speed, I usually take public transportation."
"Then let me show you something interesting."
With that said, Akiba symbolically opened the box in front of Russell.
Russell's eyes widened in shock—because he saw a pistol inside.
"The matching bullet inside is an anesthesia bullet," Qiu Ye said briskly, reaching out and clicking on another small hidden box below it, "here are real bullets."
"Having a gun is against company law."
Ice water also came over from the other side of Russell's body, his eyes were a little bright: "Can I touch it?"
"Please, Miss Bingshui."
Qiu Ye said with a smile: "Company law also depends on the target.
"Of course it is illegal to hold a gun, but who will enforce it? It's not our enforcement department."
"But I think Minister Delphinium's own weapon is just a Taser."
Bing Shui was a little surprised: "And when you go to the downtown area to perform missions, don't you always carry non-lethal weapons?"
When it comes to this question, the expression of the symbol of autumn leaves is a bit subtle.
She didn't answer immediately, but looked at Russell.
The meaning is obvious.With the leader present, she is not suitable to say... If you want to say something, just ask Russell.
As a member of the special executive department, Russell, whose title is roughly equivalent to the deputy minister of the executive department, nodded.
"It's like this," Russell said softly, "going to the lower city to clean up the unlicensed people, and guarding the director... These are completely different concepts.
"The former is about demonstrating justice and maintaining law and order, while the latter just needs to get the job done.
"If you fail to protect the director, something will happen instead. If you succeed in killing the assassin, you will get a raise and a promotion."
"But isn't that murder?"
The reporter asked stubbornly, "This is a violation of the First Consensus."
"At most, it is death in the social sense."
Russell shook his head: "This identity is sentenced to murder and guilty. Then?"
"Then……?"
"Then, the prisoner can be transferred back to the execution department according to the procedures. If you don't want to go this way, or don't want to work in the execution department, you can also change your identity with a prosthetic body.
"In these days, whether it is plastic surgery or sex change, it is easy. In the end, it is nothing more than issuing another ID... At most, it is changing the chip.
