Herrscher of Reason's Arknights

"Mephistopheles and Faust have already created chaos in the city; stirring up the waters will allow us to act more effectively."

Talulah, dressed in a black dress, stood on a high platform as her red sleeves fluttered in the wind, gazing down at Lungmen, which was slowly awakening in the dawn.

The influx of refugees into the city brought instability, which is exactly what the integration movement needs.

The saying "If the water is too clear, there will be no fish" illustrates this point.

"So you're ready? Ready to meet your... sister?"

With a teasing tone, he crossed his arms and said with a malicious smile, feeling the morning breeze.

"Do not."

"Don't tell me you're still not mentally prepared even now."

No, I mean...

Talulah shook her head and said coldly.

"My job is only to lure her out; you're the one who will meet her."

"ho~"

Upon hearing this, sodium chloride's smile grew even more sinister.

"How ruthless! Sending your sister to see me directly? Aren't you afraid I'll blow her to pieces? You know, your sister, who only knows how to play with knives, is a complete weak point in front of me. Can you still exploit her weaknesses and relentlessly attack her from behind the scenes as before?"

"We're the villains, aren't we?"

Talulah sighed, looking up at the sky, but her response sounded more like a murmur to herself.

"so what?"

"—The hero who defeats the villain has no weaknesses."

"Somewhat lonely," Talulah said.

Chapter 374 [The Duel of Two Dragons]

Yelena's sister?

There were indeed some distant memories, fragments that Amiya seemed least willing to recall.

Everything that happened in the corridor that day seems as clear as if it were yesterday.

No matter how much time passes, and no matter how everything else will vanish under the violent exhaustion of time, only these things will remain vivid in our memories.

"Amiya, do you... want to become an ally of justice?"

That mocking smile and those words, though seemingly meaningless to Amiya, somehow conveyed a strong sense of malice.

Partner of justice.

Before any definition of good in the world can be established, there must always be an evil element. If the world were to lose evil, then good would cease to exist.

No, goodness never needs anything else to set it off.

That is absolutely not the case.

She was wrong.

"…I'm sorry to have asked you to do this…"

Yelena is her sister, and Haimer, no, the Snow Fairy is her older sister.

Amiya didn't understand the relationship between the two, or rather, how the two sisters had come together.

Amiya still vividly remembered everything that man did on the ship.

However, the truth is that the relationship between the two seems to be quite complicated...

It's so complex that outsiders simply can't understand it.

However, this still takes immense courage; how should I put it...?

Killing relatives for righteousness?

Although it felt a bit strange to use, Amiya still said apologetically.

"Forehead····"

Yelena felt that Amiya had misunderstood something, but she didn't have time to explain.

"We must first find those who came with you. The Reunion Movement's target is Commander Chen!"

Ugh? !

She had just come out of the meeting room when Yelena said the other side's target was Superintendent Chen?!

"Come with me, maybe we can make it in time."

Amiya turned and rushed out the door. The conference room wasn't far away, just a few steps away. She had to intercept Superintendent Chen before they left and tell her something important.

"Dr. Kelsey!"

"————Bang!"

Amiya burst into the conference room, calling out Dr. Kal'tsit's name as she pushed open the door.

However, all that was looking at them were a few maids cleaning the room.

"Huh?! Where are they?!"

The Wei family mansion was, after all, the territory of a prestigious family, and a very important place. It was almost impossible for guests who didn't know the rules to enter. Such a thing suddenly happened in this solemn place, which startled the people who were cleaning here, and they didn't react for a while.

One of the maids, who was somewhat quick-witted, said somewhat stiffly.

"They...just went out."

A difference of only a fraction!

·······················

The rapid convergence of light and heat was repeated in Lungmen, with cars exploding and flying everywhere on the street, and metal fragments flying in all directions, followed by the spread of fear.

Another bombing, the same method, the same provocative phone call to the Imperial Guard after the attack.

This is blatant disregard for the Guard Bureau!

Because of this incident, the meeting in the conference hall ended early.

As an expert in countermeasures against infected groups, it was natural for me to lead the Rhodes Island team to the scene immediately.

The Royal Guard was very efficient; they immediately set up a cordon, took the wounded away, and cleared out any unrelated personnel.

The scene was quickly cleared, using the same method as before, even the way the bomb was made was the same.

Chen Huijie's face was quite grim. According to the initial statistics from the hospital, no one died in the explosion, but there were hundreds of injured!

While the gentle tapping and pounding might not actually damage the dragon gate, it certainly creates a commotion.

It was as if the Royal Guard Bureau was being slapped in the face time and time again, telling everyone that the Royal Guard Bureau couldn't protect anyone at all.

This is blatantly a challenge to the Guard Bureau and to the authority of Lungmen!

Watching the fire brigade extinguish the flames that had turned the car body into a blackened metal shell, Chen Huijie saw water flowing everywhere, the muddy water staining her heels.

However, there wasn't much work that could be done at the beginning. Collecting physical evidence took time, and conducting on-site investigations also took time. It was impossible to give her the answer she wanted immediately.

Even if we investigate each case one by one and follow the timeline to find out the whereabouts of the bomber, it will still take even more time.

Although as a senior superintendent, there's not much he can actually do in this kind of situation for the time being.

But as a senior superintendent, all decisions rest with her.

It can be said that the mere presence of a senior superintendent on the scene can boost the morale of all officers.

He placed one hand on the hilt of the sword, straining so hard that his knuckles turned white.

Just as the superintendent frowned as he looked at the scene, a somewhat familiar figure suddenly caught Inspector Chan's eye in a corner of the already evacuated crowd.

That's it!

His dark red pupils suddenly shrank, becoming as small as needles!

The person whose photo she had seen countless times in the intelligence room, the person she thought about day and night…

Is it really her?

However, in the blink of an eye, that figure disappeared into the crowd without leaving any trace.

It was as if...it was just her hallucination...

No.

Her sixth sense told her that she hadn't misread it.

Perhaps it was fate, perhaps it was destiny.

She had absolute faith in her intuition today.

"You watch over this place for now, I'll be right back."

After instructing his subordinates to continue their tasks, Chen Huijie gripped the hilt of his sword, hesitated for a moment, and then ran towards the crowd.

She absolutely had to find out why she did it!

————Go and ask them for clarification.

···········

P.S.: I'm so tired! There's so much to do at school, so much homework, so many classes! It's so painful!

Chapter 375 [Sodium Chloride Arrives Beside Me.jpg]

where are you going.

He followed the man's back, but it was clear that the man knew he was being followed, so he quickened his pace, and his figure always disappeared at the next corner just as Chen entered the alley.

To chase, to keep chasing.

Talulah, where are you going?

The leader of the Reunion Movement, the true spokesperson for the Reunion Movement, and the mastermind behind many unrest incidents.

Chen Huijie had memorized almost all of this information by heart.

What happened that night would still wake her up in her sleep even now.

The tattered papers in those wastepaper baskets were covered with inexplicable anger.

No one knows why Chen always seems to be running at full speed like a machine that never stops.

Even Chen Huijie's most trusted subordinates were unaware of her past.

Only she herself knows what she is really pursuing.

And now, the answer is right before our eyes.

Where has she been all these years? What has she gone through to do such a thing?

She never believed that Talulah was a villain, not before, and not now.

However, all the intelligence that kept coming in pointed to her former sister.

That gray-haired little girl, that cousin who was kidnapped by Koschei.

She hated the incompetent version of herself she had back then.

"—Talulah!!!"

Gripping the sword hilt, Chen Huijie called out the other person's name, wanting to catch up with the answer she had been searching for in her heart for so long but could not find.

·······················

"Where is your superior?"

At the scene, coroners and police officers from the Imperial Guard Bureau were still investigating and clearing the area, and directing traffic.

Then the group barged in, and when the woman dressed as a doctor pulled out her work ID, the police officers had no choice but to let them in.

That was a special order from the highest executive officer of Lungmen.

Only with this can one be regarded as Commander Wei's most honored guest.

However, the people who came in didn't treat themselves as guests. The female doctor in the lead grabbed a passing member of the Guard Bureau and asked him sternly.
