Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

In a tent not far away, Lin Wei's attention was quietly focused on the two Valkyries until he saw them assemble and board the plane and fly away.

After all, it was a relatively empty parking lot, and it was difficult for sounds to gather. Even though Lin Wei's hearing had been greatly enhanced compared to the past, he could not hear the complete picture, and only got some relatively fragmented information.

But at least, he heard the part about Anna - she was out of danger, but still unconscious and her injuries were not optimistic.

Thinking of that simple, passionate, somewhat impulsive, but extremely kind girl, who was now lying unconscious on the hospital bed, Lin Wei's heart couldn't help but be shrouded in a layer of haze.

"Damn it, at this critical moment..."

Faced with the impending collapse of Manila, Anna, who was already caught in the act and barely survived, was accidentally seriously injured at this critical moment and fell into a coma...

This is equivalent to announcing her death in advance!

Lin Wei, who had worked with the same colleague and had formed a friendship with him, absolutely could not accept this.

"Damn it... As a dignified elite team, doesn't it have its own infirmary and medical cabin?"

Lin Wei thought with some indignation, and then suddenly became speechless.

He recalled that the Sand Squad where Susanna was was so cramped that the whole team had to share one shower room; they were all external teams, so how could the Snow Lotus Squad where Anna was be any better?

You can't say it's because of water shortage in the Middle East, right?

I think it's you, Otto, who is so immoral!

Lin Wei, feeling indignant for Anna, silently raised her middle finger to Otto in the distance, secretly swearing in her heart.

Just wait for me!

He didn't know why he wanted to blame Otto for the problem, he just wanted to do it.

If you don’t agree, let Otto bite me!

Just as I was daydreaming, a familiar fragrance suddenly wafted into my nose, as elegant and charming as cherry blossoms.

"came back?"

Lin Wei put away his wandering thoughts and asked softly.

Yaesakura's arrival made him completely let go of his previous cautiousness, and his bound hands and feet could finally be released.

If he had come back earlier, he would even have taken the initiative to try to talk to the Valkyrie captain instead of eavesdropping cautiously from the side.

Lin Wei thought with some regret.

"Well, I'm back. Everything went well."

Yaezakura's voice emerged directly from the bottom of her heart, and she chose to return directly to Lin Wei's body.

She tried to be as concise as possible in describing the information she had gathered along the way, and emphasized the unexpected discovery about Orchiddale.

"She didn't have a conflict with you?"

Lin Wei hopes to reduce unnecessary conflicts before he takes control of the situation - of course, if things are already irreversible, he doesn't mind changing his strategy.

"No, her appearance seems to be just an accident."

Yaezakura said softly, and then recounted the whole process.

"As long as there's no conflict, that's good. As for the accident, how could that be possible?"

Lin Wei felt relieved, and then sneered,

"Maybe your chance encounter with her was indeed an accident, but her appearance here is definitely not an accident."

"What are you going to do?"

Yaezakura knew that Lin Wei was restless again.

Moreover, she also felt the sudden increase in uneasiness and restlessness in Lin Wei's heart.

"Let's take it one step at a time. Let's first visit some old friends I haven't seen in a long time. I hope they won't let me down."

Lin Wei quickly finalized the next itinerary. Since the World Snake's lair had been found, the most important thing at the moment was to go there and find out what was going on.

If the collapse of Manila was really their doing, then eliminating the hidden dangers at the source is undoubtedly the most cost-effective strategy.

Whether it is millions of innocent lives, those kind Valkyries, or Anna who is lying in the hospital at this moment, they will all usher in a new life without knowing it!

Lin Wei didn't need anyone to thank him, he just felt that doing so would make him feel good.

After that, it was the personal grudge between himself and Otto - that was caused by the Key of Erosion, and once it was discovered, it would inevitably be a life-and-death conflict with a landslide and tsunami!

And before that...

"Then, we'll go visit this Destiny's First Valkyrie..."

Lin Wei smiled brightly, even showing a row of big white teeth.

"After all, I am the 'Spy of Destiny' appointed by Bishop Otto..."

"In that case, isn't it normal to communicate with the Destiny Valkyrie, who also carries a heavy responsibility?"

Chapter 96: Lin Wei Still Doesn’t Act Like a Human

"Master, a guest has arrived."

A humanoid girl with mechanical implants walked up to the Jackal and reported in her usual inorganic voice.

"Oh? A guest? Who would come to see me at this time?"

The Jackal, who was standing in front of the incubator with his arms folded across his chest, quietly admiring his masterpiece floating in the green liquid, was somewhat interrupted. He muttered in an unhappy tone,

"If it's those random people outside, please refuse them all. Just say that Dr. Cleo is busy with her latest research and has no time to receive guests."

"Okay, please wait... I have declined Ms. Xiora's visit request for you."

The humanoid girl meticulously carried out her master's orders.

"Master, do you have any further instructions?"

"and many more!"

This familiar name brought the Jackal back to his senses instantly. He turned around and stared fiercely at his humanoid assistant with his terrifying golden eyes.

"This Ms. Xiora you mentioned... could it be Raven?"

The robot girl nodded regularly.

"Then you didn't tell me earlier!"

The Jackal was furious.

"Ms. Xiora has completed her resignation procedures and is no longer a World Serpent cadre, 'Raven.' In terms of her status, she now meets the definition of a 'stray person.'"

The robot girl expressed her opinion seriously.

"you!"

The Jackal pointed at his assistant with a trembling hand, but was so angry at her innocent look that he was speechless. After holding it in for a long time, he simply threw his hand away and said nothing more. He just ordered in a bad mood,

“…Let her in!”

I'm so angry! I should have retained some of her human emotions. The Jackal felt a little regretful for his earlier cold-blooded pursuit of efficiency.

Just a little bit, fleeting.

A moment later, a petite figure dressed in black and wearing a hood walked leisurely into the laboratory where the Jackal was. As they walked, they looked around with interest. Finally, after taking a look around the layout, they looked at the Jackal with a somewhat inexplicable look and asked in a strange tone,

"Why are you here alone?"

………………

Time goes backwards.

"...Is this okay?"

After listening to Lin Wei's description of his plan, she said that the amount of information was a bit too much and she couldn't accept it for a while.

"Why not?"

In the university library, Lin Wei calmly sat in a quiet corner on the second floor, slowly turning the pages while continuing his conversation with Yaezakura in his heart.

"Your disguise, at least from the outside, doesn't make much of a difference."

"..."

Yaezakura sighed helplessly, and for a moment she even regretted showing off her disguise skills to Lin Wei.

Why was she acting like a childish little girl showing off her new toy? Yaesakura reflected on herself.

However, thinking of Lin Wei's astonishing look before, he couldn't help but straighten his chest slightly, and the greater joy still overshadowed the slight regret.

I really wanted to take a picture of his surprised expression just now... Yaesakura thought with some regret.

"...Sakura, are you listening to me?"

Feeling that Yaezakura seemed to be distracted, Lin Wei couldn't help but remind her gently.

"Yeah, I'm listening."

Yaezakura immediately came back to her senses and still wanted to refuse the new task he had given her.

"Lin Weijun, I still feel that this is a bit too hasty..."

"Sloppy? No, I think it's just right."

Lin Wei smiled and closed the book in his hand. It was the history of the school he was in.

"I asked the students here. Not long ago, an internationally renowned medical professor was hired as a visiting professor here. She has conquered many nearly untreatable diseases and made indelible contributions to the development of the medical field. Hiring such a prominent figure naturally comes at a price... Giving her full responsibility for a biological laboratory like this is a price that's simply too cheap, isn't it?"

Lin Wei pointed out the window. Amidst the swaying greenery and trees, a corner of a magnificent building was faintly visible. Its shape was simple, and the decoration on the exterior wall was very much in the style of ancient Egypt. He smiled and said,

"The professor's name is Cleo. Sounds like a noble name, right?"

Yaesakura was speechless. She had just tracked Stan here and then returned the same way, so she was very familiar with the building. She just didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant.

Not only did she not expect it, Lin Wei herself did not expect it either.

"A secret organization operating openly, tsk tsk tsk... This contrast makes it feel more like they're the mastermind, doesn't it?"

Lin Wei exclaimed, deeply impressed by this method of putting himself in the spotlight while remaining invisible.

"Since the Jackal is operating in an open capacity, we should also visit him in public. This way, we, as guests, will demonstrate the necessary courtesy..."

"...Then you still let me pretend to be Raven?"

Yaezakura finally couldn't help but interrupt, how can this be considered public?

"Oh, that's wrong! He didn't sneak in, he's a legitimate guest, so of course he's open to the public!"

Lin Wei corrected seriously,

"It's just that I need to put on some necessary makeup to avoid embarrassing the host family."

"..."

Yaezakura couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "I'm listening to your nonsense."

"No kidding. We have no idea what's in that lab, nor do we know who they're interacting with. But one thing is certain: Raven isn't among them. So using her image to infiltrate is the cheapest way right now."

Lin Wei's expression became serious, and he spoke seriously about his real plan.

"After all, as a former colleague—and, of course, a future colleague if nothing unexpected happens—visiting under the name of Raven would make it easier to pry open the mouth of 'Professor Cleo'."

Lin Wei put a slight emphasis on the name when he read it, with a hint of sarcasm.

"You also know that they are familiar with each other. What if they are exposed?"

Yaezakura was very resistant to this plan which sounded ridiculous.

"Do you think I'm good at acting and lying?"

"An ancient said that the more beautiful a girl is, the more likely she is to lie... Don't stare at me, I'm just kidding."

Lin Wei originally wanted to liven up the atmosphere a bit, but faced with the somewhat annoyed look, he chose to retreat and gave a relatively reliable suggestion.

"You and I have spent quite a bit of time with Miss Raven. Just carefully recall her language style and body language. With a little adaptation, imitating most of it won't be a problem. As for the more detailed details..."

Lin Wei smiled and said,

"Given the Jackal Lady's personality, she's always looking up at people in the sky. It's probably difficult for her to notice those details in such a short time. Sakura, you just need to evacuate in time. She'll probably be kept in the dark until the end."

Lin Wei is generally more confident in the IQ of people who can be deceived by Kiana's tricks.

If I remember correctly, Kiana has successfully deceived two people over the years, the first one was Jackal.
