A foreigner's journey

The Shinra Corporation headquarters is located in the center of Midgar's aerial disc, guarded by eight surrounding blocks and the corresponding Mako Reactor.

As for the building, its size is no less than that of a small city. The tall steel building towering in the clouds overlooks the steel city and even the entire Midgar wilderness, like an emperor dominating the world.

Previously, the combined armies of several countries had tried to break into the Shinra Corporation headquarters to carry out beheading operations, but they could not even break through the first main entrance. The most elite troops of the Shinra Company are stationed here, protecting this huge city-like Shinra headquarters with impregnable strength.

But as so often happens in stories, even the perfect fortress has backdoors and small loopholes.

At this time, a group of people were sneaking in from the parking lot behind the Shinra Company headquarters.

Perhaps because a lot of troops were deployed to suppress Steel Pillar No. 7, no one thought that any bold man would dare to invade the Shinra headquarters. At this time, the defense of the rear parking lot was not too tight.

Seven or eight Shinra soldiers were guarding the entrance of the parking lot with firearms, yawning from time to time. It was almost time to hand over the night shift, and they were all at their most relaxed moment.

At this time, a military truck with the Shinra logo came along the road and stopped in front of the electric lifting pole at the signal of the soldiers. The military truck braked a little hastily, its tires leaving a small black mark on the ground and emitting a faint smell of burnt rubber.

The Shinra soldiers looked at each other and laughed: "Hey, new driver? Don't hit the brakes in such a hurry, be careful to hit us."

The driver rolled down the window and couldn't see his face clearly with the brim of his military cap down. He put his elbow on the window and smiled: "Sorry, I was driving a bit fast. You know, you have to catch the last bus home." .”

"Understand, understand."

The soldiers smiled and walked forward with submachine guns slanted on their muzzles: "Okay, just take out the pass..."

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Slight noises were heard one after another. These soldiers just swayed and fell heavily to the ground one after another. Each soldier had a small blood hole in the center of his forehead.

Throwing away the remaining small steel balls, the driver took off his hat to reveal an ordinary face wearing glasses, with a dull expression: "Okay, let's start working."

The compartment door behind the truck suddenly opened. Tifa and others jumped out one after another, stuffed the soldiers' bodies into the truck compartment according to Heather's instructions, and turned on the electric lifting lever.

After parking the car, Heather jumped out of the driver's seat and threw away his hat. In his perception, there were few people guarding the parking lot. It seemed that someone had deliberately moved the garrisoned soldiers away from the place.

It doesn't matter, killing these ordinary soldiers is not the purpose of Heather's trip. He is here to save people, and it would be more suitable for him to do less and kill less.

There was only one person he had to kill, and that person was the head of Shinra Corporation's science department——

Bao Tiao!

……………………………………………………

The 66th floor of Shinra Corporation Headquarters, Hojo Laboratory.

Covered with cables criss-crossing like blood vessels, pipes carrying unknown liquids, dim lights, various strange instruments and terrifying experimental equipment, this is one of Hojo's many laboratories.

There is a cylindrical prison in the center of the huge laboratory. The prison is sealed by extremely thick special glass. Cool light shines from the top on the 'prisoners' at the bottom of the prison.

Alice had a lot of wounds on her body, and she was sitting on a small round stool, looking out through the glass prison without saying a word.

The person standing outside the prison looking at her was a middle-aged man with greasy black hair tied into a ponytail. This man was Hojo. He wore round sunglasses and had a ferocious smile on his face:

"Oh, dear, don't look at me with that reluctant look. You should have been caught back when you were seven years old to continue the unfinished experiment, allowing you to happily spend more than ten years of 'free time', Are you still dissatisfied?"

Alice looked at Hojo in silence, motionless.

"Oh ho, silence is golden?"

Hojo, who was wearing a white coat, rubbed the stubble on his chin and looked Alice up and down carefully:

"I would also like to thank your teacher. Without his help, I'm afraid you wouldn't have awakened the ability of the ancient species so quickly, right? After all, you are just a mixed-race 'bastard'... Oh, sorry, I didn't say this word for Humiliating you is just a simple interpretation."

Faced with the sarcasm in Baojo's words, Alice's eyes remained unmoved.

Baojo paced slowly in front of the glass cover, and finally stopped: "Okay, tell me the information about the [Promised Land]."

Of course, all Hojo received was silence and stares. He shrugged his shoulders pretentiously and complained in a smooth tone:

"My dear, can't you understand my forced position? I just want those greedy guys to shut up so that I can concentrate on conducting great research. Well, 'research' with you as the protagonist."

Looking at Alice who was as motionless as a clay sculpture, Hojo put his hand on his chin and looked at Alice with a malicious look:

"Looking at it this way, you look more and more like your mother Ifaluna."

Upon hearing her mother's name, Alice's pupils shrank slightly, and her slender hands in front of her were clenched tighter.

Of course, Hojo noticed these details and said slowly in an unhurried tone: "Ifaluna's behavior is really regrettable. There is no need to run away at all. Just tell me and I will help her deal with all her troubles." ”

As he spoke, Hojo shook his head, as if he really felt sorry for Ifaluna's escape.

He rubbed his hands in front of him like flies: "It's really a pity, she is obviously the last pure-blooded ancient species."

Having said this, he looked at Alice and spread his hands: "By the way, don't you want to see your mother again?"

Alice almost spoke when she heard this, but she still clenched her hands tightly and forced herself to remain silent in response to Hojo.

When Hojo saw Alice's expression, he could no longer suppress his twisted psychology. He rushed over at once, pressed his hands hard on the glass cover, and the hot breath from his mouth and nose caused white mist on the glass cover: "It's a pity, if you want to see her, you can only use a microscope, hahahaha! How can I Maybe not to recycle such an important individual?”

He lay in front of the glass cover and kept twisting and squirming, unabashedly releasing his deepest malice towards Alice: "I have carefully studied every inch of her body! Hair, skin, internal organs, even tiny... Bones! The ancient species are amazing!"

When talking about Ifaluna, Baojo could hardly suppress his screams of excitement: "Ifaluna, even her cells are so beautiful! Be proud of your mother!"

If looks could kill, Alice would have cut Hojo into pieces.

Alice's gaze made Hojo very satisfied: "It's such a nostalgic expression. We have plenty of time to have fun..."

Suddenly, the communicator next to him made a series of sounds, and Baojo looked dejected as if his wonderful game time had been interrupted: "Tsk, the meeting time is almost here. Well, see you later."

After saying that, Hojo put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and staggered out of the laboratory.

After the evil scientist left the laboratory, Alice gasped for air like a person saved from drowning. After so many years, the fear Bao Tiao brought to her still couldn't subside.

When she thought that she was about to be subjected to various inhumane human experiments by Hojo, anger and fear immediately lingered in Alice's heart.

Teacher, help me...
