Hello, Arknights

"This guy... what can I say? He has come into contact with these beings so early... I realized something was wrong when I was in the mountains before... Forget it, there is nothing I can do in this situation anyway, let me see how this farce will end."

Yan Country breakfast stall. Gu Fan sat with one hand on her cheek waiting for breakfast to be served. Today, the superiors finally said that they would locate the location of the experimental subject. She also brought her curved sword and was currently drinking soy milk to kill time.

"Director Saria hasn't contacted me much... It feels like I'm on vacation. Sigh, I don't know if the gaming record I left in the institute has been broken..." Norsa is quite satisfied with this leisurely life, but he can't connect to the institute's network to see what's going on there. Noa's data is processed offline. After all, this operation is mainly based on Rhine Life as a gesture of friendship.

Just as Norsa was lost in her thoughts, she suddenly smelled the scent of the sea tide.

How could this be?! This is Colombia, how could there be an ocean scent!

Norsa looked back vigilantly. From the scepter and the scepter, she learned a lot of information unknown to the outside world. For example, the birthplace of her race was not only full of unfathomable mysteries, but also terrible dangers.

Haisi...

Her mind raced as she saw the source of the aura. The other party had no intention of hiding anything. He just walked towards the breakfast stall owner with his weapon in hand.

The boss of the Yan country breakfast shop was an old man with a big hoof. He was happily making buns. When he noticed someone approaching, he looked up and saw an Agor with white hair and red eyes. The other person's expressionless face made him feel uneasy. He lowered his eyes and found that she was holding a black sword.

...Were they robbed? The old man was frightened by the color of the Agor's eyes, and asked tremblingly, "What do you want?"

"Gu~" The white-haired Agor raised his hand and pulled his blue tricorn hat, saying, "I'm quite hungry. Bring me something to fill my stomach. Well, I don't have much bounty on me. Is this money enough?"

The other party carefully rummaged through her purse, almost turning it upside down, but only took out a dozen coins. The old man saw that she looked exhausted and asked what was going on.

"We encountered a natural disaster on the way here and lost a lot of money." The white-haired Agor looked at the coins he had poured out, with a total value of about ten yuan, and couldn't help wondering if this was enough to feed himself.

"Hey girl, you must have been hungry. Just eat this morning. I'll make a loss for you." The old man thought about his recent earnings and felt that he could still make a loss, so he said she didn't have to pay for the meal.

"But... I have a big appetite." The girl hesitated.

"What a joke, how much can a girl eat?"

Then Norsa saw the fellow tribesman sitting next to him slowly eating three bowls of noodles, five sesame cakes and more than ten buns... Old man Fengti was numb.

The old man was feeling pain, but Gu Fan and the girl with white hair and red eyes made eye contact.

As a special operator of the Scepter and the Institute, Norsa is extremely powerful, but now she finds that she can feel pressure from the other party, and she also finds that she can't guess what the other party is thinking.

She couldn't help but grasp the hilt of the sword.

The white-haired Agor swallowed the remaining half of the bun in his hand and said, "Are you looking at me?"

"Ah?" Norsa didn't react, "You don't know?"

"Almost. I was just thinking about something, and then I realized you were looking at me." The girl wiped her mouth with tissue, turned around and asked the old man if he really didn't have to pay.

This was enough to embarrass her.

After the white-haired, red-eyed girl left all the coins and left, Gu Fan quickly dealt with his breakfast and went to pay the bill. When he paid, old man Fengti couldn't help but ask, "Are you girls so hungry now? You eat more than the calves doing farm work in my hometown."

"Not really...sir, you see she must have been hungry for a long time." Gu Fan laughed and thought about it, so he paid five times the breakfast price for a good breakfast experience.

"Uncle, please keep it. I'm actually her friend and she's embarrassed to borrow money from me." Gu Fan tried his best to make up an excuse and quickly left the breakfast stall.

She hesitated again and again, but finally took out the communication terminal while walking to contact a certain Sakota who was still catching up on his sleep: "Hello? It's me. Wait, I have something serious to say - Director Saria, the first person in charge, doesn't know this information, so listen to me!"

"I just ran into a deep sea hunter."

It has been a long time since Saria had such a leisurely rest. It's not that she was not working, she was also observing and recording. She would not allow this operation to go wrong in her hands. She was very clear about the danger of the experimental subjects. She had seen the scenes of previous accidents and found many hidden dangers. At least for the current situation, she could not act rashly, otherwise the entire Tobrand would be in danger.

The experiment subject had been trying to land on Tobrand...even going so far as to clash with the Scepter and the others a few times, which made her feel something was wrong.

"The intention is too obvious. The movement is about to alert Tobrand's armed forces."

The drawing on the table showed Tobrand's driving route for the past week. The traces of destruction on the experimental subject appeared 3 times behind it and 2 times in front of it. Each time, there was a strong intention to land, and the duration of the destruction ranged from 15 minutes to two hours.

Saria had another suspicion. The experimental subject seemed to know her movements. Every time she rushed to the scene, the subject disappeared. When she asked the members of the Scepter and the Institute, she only got some experimental data that was not very relevant. She was a little at a loss when facing the person in charge of the other party. It was not because of the other party's attitude, but because the other party invited her to the temporary residence openly and frankly, which surprised her. After chatting for a few words, she found that the other party was not in charge of this experiment. Instead, the Scepter and the Institute task force stationed outside the city with Tobrand's movement knew more about it.

Saria felt that the whole operation was completely uncoordinated and many things were strange. Based on her current impression of the people at the Scepter and the Institute, they were in charge of work goddesses, late operators, suspicious conspirators, and probably some strange people she had never seen before. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of genius that was - the boss of the Scepter and the Institute.

At this time, her communication terminal rang. Seeing the caller ID, her eyes softened a little and she answered the call: "Hemer?"

"How's Ifrit?"

"It is much more stable than the previous times. It should be because of the improved control over the power, but the change in the dosage of the inhibitor cannot be ruled out." The woman on the other end of the terminal spoke in a gentle voice. She seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then continued: "The next stage of the child's treatment experiment is about to begin. She... and I both hope that you can come and talk to her before then."

"...I understand." Saria glanced at the red line on the drawing on the table, and after a moment of silence, she nodded.

"Joyce should be here soon. When she's done handing over the information, you two can come back together."

"it is good."
