NieR: Whirlpool
Chapter 20 The Right Thing
Bunker, command hall,
Commander White's office was immersed in an attentive silence.
She sat at her desk, her eyes sharp and deep, staring at the data and charts on the screen.
Her fingers tapped out a light rhythm on the keyboard, and every stroke seemed to be weaving the future of the troops.
Suddenly, the office door was gently pushed open, and an intelligence agent appeared at the door.
She held a document in her hand, with a serious and slightly angry look on her face:
"Commander, this is a document sent from Satellite Base No. 6. I need your review."
White looked up, a gentle smile appearing on her face, which showed respect and gratitude for her subordinates.
"Just put it down first!" Her voice sounded very comfortable, without a trace of harshness or criticism.
When he was with a few people, White always gave people a feeling of being in the spring breeze.
The intelligence agent nodded, her brows relaxed slightly, she put the documents on the table, turned and left without making any unnecessary noise.
White turned her attention back to her work, her brows furrowed as she pondered the tactical layout on the screen. As the seconds ticked by, her desk lamp cast a soft glow, illuminating the pile of documents on her desk.
It was not until the work was finished that White felt tired. She rubbed her temples gently and then noticed the document on the table.
It lay there quietly, waiting for her review.
At this time, there was another knock on the office door, this time it was Communications Officer 21O.
Her steps were brisk, but her expression was as calm as ever.
"21O, what's the matter?" White asked softly.
21O's voice was very serious. "Commander, according to the latest news, 9M and the other two have gained the trust of the resistance. They are expected to head to the desert to find the truth next."
Hearing this, White's eyes flashed with a gleam, as if he had thought of something, and then said:
"Desert? Things are about to get interesting, hopefully..."
She smiled and continued, "I hope they won't be too surprised..."
21O was stunned for a moment, then realized something and smiled knowingly, "You mean... that senior..."
White blinked and gave her a look that was only understandable but not expressible.
Then, their eyes met on a document on the desk - "Guidance on Modifying the Appearance Design of Team Members of YoRHa".
After holding the document for a moment, a hint of disgust flashed in White's eyes, but she quickly hid it.
"Come and take a look too!" White handed the document to 21O.
21O was a little confused. She reached out to take the document handed to her by White and looked at it with surprise.
The document elaborated that for some purpose, the facial model, voice, skin color, body shape and other structures of the YoRHa team members needed to be modified.
And give some facial model samples after guidance.
At the same time, the human army is required to pay high guidance fees to its organization.
In addition to appearance, the document also mentions issues with the ideological inclusiveness of the YoRHa team members and other fictitious issues.
Finally, 21O finished reading the document, and the expression on his face was very interesting.
She had never heard of the artificial human organization that appeared in the document.
So he turned on his portable electronic device, tapped on the holographic keyboard with his nimble fingers, and typed in the name of the organization as the keyword: SweetHoneyInc.
Then he skillfully clicked the search button.
slap~
There was a huge spark, and the laptop computer gave off a burst of sparks.
A wisp of green smoke rose up and the equipment was scrapped on the spot.
21O was startled and dropped the device in her hand.
She was still in shock and looked at the equipment still smoking on the ground, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Commander?" She gasped and looked at White in confusion.
White sneered, then kept a calm expression, trying not to show any dissatisfaction, and said softly:
“The same thing happened to me last time.
The technical department analyzed that the electronic equipment might have been disgusting and was directly written off.
Don’t worry about the details.”
Suddenly, she understood something, and a trace of anger flashed across her face. Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes flashed with dissatisfaction.
She raised her head and met Commander White's eyes, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
"Commander," Miss 21O said in a low voice with a hint of threat, "Sweet Honey Inc's proposal... does it require us to take some additional measures to ensure that our position is fully communicated?"
White's eyes narrowed slightly. She knew what 21O meant by 'extra measures'.
However, her expression remained calm, without any obvious emotion fluctuations.
She smiled slightly and gently put down the document. Her voice was calm and firm: “21O, we understand the importance of the proposal, but our first priority is to ensure the efficiency and combat effectiveness of the troops.
As a professional force, we must always act in accordance with our mission and principles.”
21O nodded slightly. She understood what White meant.
Although there were no direct commands in her words, the tacit understanding between them was enough for her to understand the next step.
White continued: “We need to ensure that our decision-making process is transparent and that our actions are above reproach.
However, we cannot ignore any factors that could threaten the safety and effectiveness of our forces.”
A flash of understanding flashed across 21O's eyes.
"I understand, Commander." Miss 21O's voice was filled with determination. "I will ensure that everything is carried out according to our standards."
After 21O left, White was left alone in the office, and her eyes were once again on the proposal document. There was no extra expression on her face, but she was making a complex balance in her heart.
She stood up, slowly walked to the window, and looked out at the vast base and sky.
Night has fallen and the stars are twinkling in the night sky, as if guiding her.
White has a firm belief in her heart that no matter what challenges she faces, she must stick to her principles and mission.
She took a deep breath and put the proposal document into the document shredder beside her.
the other side,
21O walked through the corridor, her eyes scanning the surroundings cautiously to make sure no one else noticed her.
She came to a hidden communications room, a safe place for private communications.
She quickly entered the password and activated the communication device.
A face resembling Unit 9 soon appeared on the screen. He was sitting in his office with a frown on his face, obviously dealing with some urgent matters.
"Ms. 21O, it's rare that you would contact me." Number Nine's voice was calm, but there was a hint of concern in his tone.
Miss 21O took a deep breath and quickly told Number Nine the content of Commander White's decision and proposal.
She spoke quickly, but each word was clear and powerful, ensuring that the other party could fully understand the current situation.
After patiently listening to every word, a sneer flashed in No. 9's eyes.
However, his voice remained calm:
"I understand, Miss Communications Officer. Just leave this matter to me!"
After hanging up the call, a white box-shaped device suspended in the air turned off the holographic projection, and the image of No. 9 disappeared instantly.
The white device cast a beam of light, transforming into the appearance of a boy in white clothes.
He waved his hand, and a small, long-legged machine in black military uniform emerged from the darkness.
"Mr. Chief of Staff, what do you want?"
"Investigate the SHI organization of the androids and take extraordinary measures after confirming that they are correct."
"As ordered!"
The black machine disappeared back into the darkness.
The boy in white showed an evil smile on his face and sneered:
“Since we left, the new guys have been getting more and more right!
A bunch of guys who want to die!"
