Overturned Tower

Of course... considering he doesn't have legs, that might not be sitting either.

His quiet appearance is like a potted plant, and it doesn't seem strange to say that he "grows" on the wheelchair.

With none of the heirs surviving and intact, Tokifat, who was also a victim, naturally could not remain intact.

He's lost his legs and an arm...maybe autocloning, but Tokifat doesn't seem to care about his physical body.

This was the only one among all the elf directors that Russell had seen—even among all the elves, who had undergone a high-intensity prosthetic transformation on himself.

Compared with others, his reasons for transformation seem so reasonable that they seem out of place.

——Because Tokifat really lost these limbs because of the disaster, instead of cutting off the healthy limbs and refitting them into prosthetics for limb reinforcement or beautification.This may be the meaning of the existence of the original prosthetic body.

But unlike others, Tokifat's prosthetic body has nothing to do with humans at all.

The prosthetic body he used himself was the style of Shenzhi Heavy Industry - Russell also knew the tentacles under him.It was a special prosthetic body named "Medusa's Hair", a special-shaped prosthetic that could be twisted, extended, and shortened arbitrarily under the control of consciousness.

Its front section can be converted into devices such as screwdrivers, scalpels, and gastroscopes, and can also be converted into various interfaces.Some doctors and prosthetic doctors will use special prosthetic arms with slots, just to add a "Medusa hair" to the forearm or shoulder.This makes them no longer have the problem of "hand shaking". Even if the body moves, the prosthetic tentacles will remain stable like a gimbal.

Russell wanted to buy one back then, if it wasn't for the fact that it wasn't very good-looking and extremely expensive.

After all, this thing is very useful for assisting in loading and unloading the prosthetic body... and the biggest advantage is that when he refits his left arm prosthesis, he doesn't have to use one hand to remodel it - the "Medu" on the left arm prosthesis Shazhi's hair" can bend over, which in turn assists in dismantling and maintaining the left arm.

Although its price is cheaper than Russell's arm, it's not much cheaper.But just one is definitely more expensive than a good brand of floating car.

And Tokifat equipped himself with more than 30 tentacles of different thicknesses and lengths.

They look like silvery earthworms, constantly spreading and wriggling around from the waist down.Therefore, it can be judged that it seems to be the latest model with additional sensors and camera functions.There should also be some weapons equipped with shooting weapons in the front section.

If it is seen by ordinary people, I am afraid that this scene is a bit scary and weird...

But as a knowledgeable person, Russell's first reaction was the envy of "it's nice to be rich".

Russell is very familiar with the five prosthetic hands of Tokifat, which looks like Cyber ​​Bodhisattva——

This is the same series as the mercenary leader he saw on the airship.It was the one who fired a palm cannon and was cut by Russell with a knife.

It’s just at least five versions more advanced than that mercenary leader—the one four versions more advanced is the latest trial model currently on the market, and only a few people with connections can get it.It is in the same batch as Russell's "Kwai Lily" prosthetic hand, which is "not yet mass-produced".

As for the one used by Tokifat, there is even no relevant information at all.

Judging by its high-tech streamlined appearance, it probably fires plasma or lasers, and again it is probably an electromagnetic gun... It may not be so easy to cut the bullets fired from it.

……how to say.

That is to say, Elf directors usually don't show their faces very much, otherwise this is simply a live advertisement.

The chairman of many companies will not use their own products at all.But Tokifat is more than useful, he has already piled up materials on himself, and hung up all the places where his own prosthetic body can be hung, directly transforming himself into an alien.

From another point of view, it is also a shape full of money.This set on him can probably buy [-] buildings in Tian'en District... Considering that these things are all the latest models, they are probably updated in real time.

"16 seconds."

Suddenly, the half-length boy who gave people a silver-white look suddenly spoke softly.

"what?"

Russell didn't react for a moment.

"From the moment you saw me, you stared at me intently for 16 seconds."

"Tokifat" raised his mouth slightly: "So far, you are the one with the longest time."

"Won't they be surprised when they see you?"

Russell was not polite either, he just asked curiously.

The silver boy replied in a friendly voice: "When they see me, they only have three seconds at most. They will subconsciously look away due to fear and disgust. Afterwards, either out of curiosity or out of politeness, Only then will I turn my gaze back again...

"Only you, after seeing me, saw my prosthetic body from top to bottom."

"Probably because I really understand."

"Indeed. He is Sally Ruth's favorite student after all."

"You also have contact with the mentor?"

"Our directors rarely communicate with each other."

Tokifat was not in a hurry to get to the point, but just chatted with Russell gently: "However, the important information on the islands will be collected by the staff immediately, analyzed and then given to us.

"So even if there is no contact information between the seven islands, we can always know the news of other empty islands as soon as possible.

"When you were a graduate student, you improved three types of prosthetics in the flower series by yourself. I also sent an invitation to you at that time... Do you remember?"

"...So it was you."

Russell suddenly realized.

When he graduated that year, he did receive an invitation to work from Shenzhi Heavy Industry, starting at the engineer level.

But Russell didn't pay attention to the specific details... because he had promised his mother to come to Tianen Group to join his uncle.So he politely declined at that time—since he had already made up his mind not to go, it would only make him more distressed if he studied it carefully.

However, he did not expect that the invitation letter signed by the elf shareholder was actually sent by the elf shareholder...

Generally speaking, shouldn't this kind of letter be drafted by the subordinate, and then the boss is only responsible for signing and stamping it?

Sometimes even the chapters don’t need to be covered by yourself...

Knowing that he had actually had contact with this "fake Tokifat" before, Russell felt a little fond of him for a while, and even let down his vigilance.

At that moment, Russell immediately realized——

This "false Tokifat" is the same type of person as himself.

But fortunately, he had enough understanding of Torquay before.

Therefore, within less than a minute of meeting, Russell has already completed the basic copying and duplication of his personality.

So Russell immediately adjusted the details of his personality and switched to a psychological form that is more friendly to Torquay:

Fully trust his identity as a director, have a sense of identity with his ability and talent, don't care so much about the original body performance, don't question his control over plans and people's hearts, don't think he is a dark and cunning person, don't treat him See him as a superior master and regard him as a mentor, show a little feeling of being controlled by him but have his own ideas, show his own value and challenge difficult to be manipulated, can slightly see his essence but cannot touch it What he fears the most...

Like water, unpredictable.

Like a doppelganger on a psychic level—Russell can always befriend anyone.

Chapter 69 Starter Bomb!

"Actually, I really wanted to come to Shenzhi Heavy Industry back then."

Russell had a look of pity: "But before my mother died, she asked me to join my uncle..."

"Who is your uncle?"

The blindfolded silver-haired boy spoke with a tone of curiosity from the bottom of his heart.

"It's Director Dodgson of Tianen Group."

Russell patiently explained.

"Huh? Is it him? I thought he would transfer you to the PR department."

"It was true at first. But there is no way, who made me awaken my spiritual power... I can only go to the Special Operations Department."

"That's just a rule for ordinary people. If he really wants to, he can still force you to be transferred to the public relations department... For example, I brought Tiansong with me."

"I think, probably part of the reason... is that I really want to do something for other people."

Russell smiled gently: "It's rare for me to awaken my psionic power."

"I remember... your psionic ability is the same as your mother Alice's?"

On the screen opposite Russell, the silver-haired boy also asked casually as if chatting: "Aren't you going to teach yourself medicine? The spiritual power of the indestructible device is still very strong if it can be developed to the later stage."

"No, I can also use it as a prosthetic doctor... Do you know my mother too?"

"Who doesn't know that lovely little lady. She was more famous in Happy Island than you are now... She will follow your father to Chongguang Island. I don't know how many people have not expected this."

During the chat between the two, Russell gradually relaxed on the chair.

——That's what I said.

But he knew that he must have checked himself thoroughly before Tokifat called him.

Their current dialogue is a well-known one—both parties know that they are asking nonsense, and they also know that the other party must know that the gold content of their questions and answers is not high, but this topic can be maintained for a while.

Although in name, the reason why Russell came to see Tokifat was "Amirus wants to see you".But neither of them mentioned that name even once, because both of them knew that this was just an excuse to persuade outsiders to meet.

They chatted for a while, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.

It felt like we could get to the point, so Russell sighed:

"To be honest, I thought the board of directors of Torquay was a scheming conspirator... When I came to see you, I was already prepared to never go out again. I didn't expect you to be Such a kind and nice person. This made me seem to understand a lot of things in a flash."

"Oh?"

Tokifat asked with some interest: "Why do you think so?"

"Of course it's about Miss Bingshui...you must know about it."

The smile on Russell's face gradually subsided: "That's what you instructed Tiansong to do."

The corners of Tokifat's mouth, which was always raised, were flattened again, giving people a sunny temperament like a brother next door, and gradually became serious, like a young and wise prince.

Because this was not easy to answer, Russell didn't give Tokifat a chance to answer, and said to himself: "According to my previous reasoning, I can basically confirm that you are in charge of this matter.

"Those unloading trucks just happened to be blocked on our only way, and then unmanned heavy trucks ran over... Afterwards, it was found out that these trucks belonged to Shenzhi Heavy Industry. The person unloading there is 'unknown'."

Russell brought it up on purpose.

Tokifat sighed slowly: "Although you may not believe it, this matter really has nothing to do with us."

——This is the first truth he said today.

Russell knew it, of course, but he couldn't respond like that.

He just sighed softly: "I also hope that it has nothing to do with you. But after this assassination failed, Bingshui's office was immediately bombed... This really makes me think too much.

"The surrounding surveillance shows that no one has entered or exited, and no missiles have attacked the office from outside. In an office where no one has entered or exited for several days, I only know that Tiansong can make such a large-scale explosion out of thin air.

"The most important thing is... I also found evidence that it belongs to Shenzhi Heavy Industry. It is a logo that has not been completely distorted by the shock wave and has the trademark of Shenzhi Heavy Industry."

This was actually a trap set by Torquay, and Russell stepped into it on purpose.

Sure enough, Tokifat shook his head, and first drew a clear line with Tiansong: "In fact, I also have a little premonition in my heart, which seems to be what Tiansong did... I am also a little disappointed, a little scared, and even have no idea about it." Go investigate. Because I am worried that at the end of the investigation, it will be discovered that he really did it.”

Immediately afterwards, Tokifat brought up the deliberately left loophole: "However, now that I have heard what you said, I am not afraid anymore."

"why?"

"Because I can now be sure that Tiansong must have been framed. Tiansong's redshift intensity has six levels. If he wants to, he can only transmit the shock wave and high temperature, and will not transmit the projectile. In that case, even if it is true What he did, can you still find evidence?

"And in the final analysis, if he intends to kill Miss Bingshui. Then this behavior is meaningless at all.

"If this is done by Tiansong's psionic power, he can wait for you to enter before sending the bomb in. If Miss Bingshui comes to the office, and then activate the bomb... Excuse me, even you There's no way to get out alive. You're both going to die in there. But the explosion happened before you arrived, which means that the attackers didn't want you to have an accident, or they couldn't control the exact timing of the explosion... because you were delayed by a car accident Instead, the accident was avoided.

"Based on this point, if the person who did it is really Tiansong, then the motives of 'hoping to kill you' and 'don't want you to be killed' are in conflict; and if it is considered that it is because time delays the timing of the explosion This proves that this incident has nothing to do with Tiansong. Instead, explosives were placed in the office in advance, pretending that Tiansong shot and killed you - if there is a killer, then it should be The side that planted the explosives and dispatched the trucks."

Tokifat cleverly used the "motivation" and "optimal solution" to pull the "evidence of destruction" as "I don't want you to be killed", and directly pulled Tiansong out.

"...that's true."

Russell showed some hesitation and confusion on his face, and continued to analyze along the lines of Tokifat: "So, it seems unreasonable that an explosion that can completely destroy an office can leave that metal sign. And it happens to be It is the trademark of Shenzhi Heavy Industry."

Speaking of this, he brought back some more: "But this is indeed the explosives of Shenzhi Heavy Industry, and it did appear out of thin air."

"I will initiate an investigation into Tiansong and the local factory."

Tokifat responded sincerely: "Please believe in my sincerity.

"Miss Bingshui is a brave reporter, and her father is a great hero. There was no investigation before, on the one hand because of some hesitation about Tiansong, and on the other hand because your Tianen Group blocked the information. But now, I have more confidence in Tiansong... I believe that the more I investigate, the more I will find out. If he did nothing, he must be able to withstand the investigation. If he really did something, when the time comes to ask Just be clear."

Tokifat didn't show any trace, while continuing to cut off with Tiansong in advance, he threw part of the pot to Tianen Group, and then brought the matter of the explosives over like this.

So far, Russell has been "fooled by him".

If Russell just wanted to get this thing over with, it would be fine to get here.

But no.

Russell also had to involve Torvatos.

So Russell was "unyielding", like a keen detective, and further opened up another topic: "Then I have to ask you another thing.

"—Do you know 'Dust Gap'?"
