Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

After hearing what Suika said, everyone looked at her, Scout was surprised, while Alex and Misha were shocked.

Even if it is not stated explicitly, there is no doubt what the incident back then refers to. It can only refer to that one incident.

"What's the name of Rhodes Island's head of medical department?"

Kal'tsit

When Suika said this name, Alex took two steps back in disbelief, and then a negative emotion rose involuntarily in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Why?" He stared at Suika, trying to find the reason.

"I don't know exactly what happened, but what I can be sure of is that it was related to Kal'tsit, and she did make a mistake.

But the main responsibility should not be hers. If you really want to know the specific situation, you might as well confront her face to face when the time comes.

Given her personality, she wouldn't lie to you."

After hearing what Suika said, Alex and Misha fell silent at the same time. After a while, Alex raised his head and looked at Suika.

"Okay, I'm willing to believe you, but we need to meet with Kal'tsit before we can decide what to do next."

Suika didn't feel that Alex's lack of trust in her was an insult to her.

"Of course. After all, if it weren't for what happened back then, you wouldn't be like this."

Scout on the side didn't say anything. Instead, he waited until Alex and Misha rested before he found Suika and asked her what was going on.

Suika briefly told what she knew

"These two, including Lyudmila's parents, were all from that research institute, and the director of the institute was Kal'tsit.

However, due to an accident, the research institute was destroyed by the Ursus military, and their parents also died in that incident.

But Kal'tsit is also a victim in this matter, so it's better to talk it out. And I think Kal'tsit will be willing to accept these old friends, right?"

After Suika finished speaking, Scout nodded.

"I see. If that's the case, Dr. Kal'tsit will definitely be happy to meet these two siblings."

Then the two of them walked out chatting to find the person who helped Scout maintain his equipment.

After they left, Misha took Alex and said

"Brother, why don't we run!"

"Why are you running..." Alex looked at his sister in confusion.

"We finally met again... I heard that the Reunion Movement is full of murderous demons. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have fled here.

And that Rhodes Island, if it weren't for Kal'tsit, our family wouldn't be..."

After Misha finished speaking, Alex shook his head. He finally understood why Tallulah and Suika were so determined to kill Mephisto.

"Sister, the Reunion Movement is not what you know it to be."

"You are still young, what do you know..."

“I am a member of the Integration Movement.”

After Alinkus said this, the two of them fell silent.

Then Alex told Misha about his experiences during this period.

After hearing this, Misha looked incredulous.

"So, those who are doing evil everywhere are the New Integration Movement?"

Alex nodded. "Yes, that's right."

"Then there's no need for us to go back...wouldn't it be better to just find a place to live in anonymity?"

After hearing this, Misha still disagreed with returning to Ursus. After all, Ursus's discrimination against the infected was deeply rooted, and Misha didn't think the Integration Movement could reverse it.

Alex shook his head and said, "Sister, do you think we can really remain anonymous?

And don’t you want to know the truth of that year? "

"I..." Misha pursed her lips.

Of course, she wanted to know what happened back then and why her family was eventually taken away by the military and disappeared into the night.

The reason she has tried to survive for so many years is to find her family and the truth.

But after finding her brother, she hoped that he could live safely rather than the truth.

"The Reunion Movement still has my partners. After this is over, I will return to the Reunion Movement and continue my and everyone's ideals.

Sister, if you have nowhere to go, I suggest you join Rhodes Island.

I'm not saying we separate.

Rhodes Island and Reunion have very close cooperation, just like those two people, they are both from Rhodes Island, but have a very good relationship with the leader of Reunion.

From what I understand, Rhodes Island is much safer than the Reunion Movement. If you go there, your life will be guaranteed. And if the Reunion Movement fails in Ursus, I can still come and join you!"

Alex looked at Misha seriously.

"But why can't you remain anonymous instead of choosing to tell that girl?"

Misha didn't quite understand.

"Sister, you have been hiding your identity for so many years, but do you know how long it took to find you?

Less than a day.

Although we still don’t know what exactly happened back then, in the eyes of those who care, we have never left their sight.

Your hiding is meaningless to them.

Rather than deceiving yourself, you might as well choose a backer..."

Alex analyzed very calmly.

On the other side, after leaving the rest area, Scout looked towards Suika

"Aren't you afraid they'll run away?"

"Why should we be afraid? If they run away, it will prove that they are not smart enough.

I'm not their parents. After helping them so much, they're still being ungrateful. Do they want me to lick their hands?"

Suika rolled her eyes at Scout.

"Right!"

Scout thought about it and found that there was nothing wrong. Suika had given them help and trust. If they chose to leave without saying goodbye, it would mean that the other party had never taken Suika's kindness to heart from the beginning.

In this situation, if you still put aside past grudges and insist on helping the other person, you are not a saint but a fool and a clown.

"How do you know so many secrets?" Scout asked as they walked.

"Because I know the script!" Suika said as a matter of course

"Huh? If you don't want to say it, forget it..." Scout thought that Suika didn't want to say it and stopped asking.

"Hey, I told you but you don't believe me." Suixiang said that it's so difficult these days because no one believes the truth.

"Ah, yes, yes..."

Chapter 379: Hidden Enemy

Following Scout through the alleys of the slums, turning left and right, we walked for more than ten minutes but still hadn't reached our destination.

Suika looked at the wet and muddy ground in silence.

"Why is this craftsman living so secluded? No one can find him, so how can he find a job? Without a job, won't he be starving every day?"

"These craftsmen are all old employees of certain military factories. Most of them became infected after accidents during work.

Although he was fired after becoming infected, his skills are still there, and he is also an important source of weapons in the battles between low-level gangs.

The reason for living so deep down is very simple. If someone comes to check, he will have enough time to escape.

After all, if you are caught making arms privately, you will be beheaded no matter which country you are in.

Oh, here we are!

Scout said calmly as he walked towards a seemingly inconspicuous wooden door nearby.

Just as he was walking towards the door, Suixiang keenly noticed that many people were looking at him.

"Don't look around, these are spies from the nearby gangs." Before Suixiang could look up to see who was staring at her, the scout's voice came.

"what?"

"These craftsmen are considered public assets of the gangs here and are protected by all the gangs here. They have never seen you before, so they will naturally take a second look at you."

Scout said as he opened the door.

"Has any gang ever thought of turning them into private assets?" Suika didn't quite understand this line of thought.

“I had this doubt before, but after learning about the Rat King, I understood. I guess all the rules here were set by him.

Although it seems absurd, it also protects the lives of these craftsmen to the greatest extent possible while ensuring the combat effectiveness of these gangs."

Following Scout into the door, Cuixiang instantly understood the reality of the sentence in Peach Blossom Spring: "After walking a few dozen steps, the view suddenly became clear."

There was a muddy road outside and a house that looked like it could be an antique, but the inside of the house was completely different.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see all kinds of cold weapons that seem to emit a cold light.

Going inside, you can see various crossbows and arrows.

Going further in...

Well, even among the gangs, only a few can afford etched bullets, and "high-tech" guns are too expensive for the gangs and are completely unnecessary.

So there was only an exaggerated longbow placed inside.

And under the longbow was a pitch-black box.

Suika had seen that box before; it was what Scout used to store his weapons.

After seeing the two people come in, an elderly man in his seventies standing not far from the box looked up.

"Mr. Scout?"

"I'll get the weapons."

After hearing what Scout said, the old man took the box down and placed it on the table next to him, then he said

"Your gun has been well maintained, and there isn't much I can do.

The stock of the type of etched bullets you need is very limited in Longmen, and we hardly use them here.

I only managed to get twenty through connections.

If you want more, you'll have to wait at least a week for more to arrive, and there's no guarantee of the quantity of bullets."

The old man opened the box and pushed it towards the scout so he could inspect the condition of the weapon himself.

Scout took out the spear and rubbed it carefully. Seeing his tender face, Suika felt her scalp tingling.

"Hey, your expression is disgusting, just like that idiot."

"Hehe...you guy, can't you just make me happy for a moment!" Scout looked at Suika with a frown. As soon as this guy opened his mouth, all the emotions that had just risen in his heart were gone.

While complaining, he quickly checked the weapon. After finding that there was indeed no problem, he put the musket back into the box and closed it. Then, after paying, he took the bullets and the box and walked out with Suika.

However, before they had walked far, a dozen people suddenly emerged from the surroundings and surrounded them.

Suika glanced at Scout

"Isn't it safe?"

Scout spread his hands and said, "Just tell me if it's safe when we go in..."

"Everyone, Officer Hoshiguma of the Imperial Guard is my sister. For her sake, how about we all get along and make money together?" Suixiang took out a stack of about a few thousand Longmen coins from her pocket.

However, after she finished speaking, these people did not react, but silently took out their weapons.

"Uh, didn't you say that Xingxiong has a lot of face here?" Scout complained when he saw these people's actions.

"It's obvious, you have no good intentions..." Suixiang teased, narrowing her eyes.

She sensed murderous intent from these people. It seemed that these people were not sent by someone to stop them, but were serious about killing them.

Suddenly those people rushed over waving weapons
