"Then I'll take Qiuqiu away."

The morning after the team gathering, T-BUG held the bionic robot dog that didn't need her to hold it at all, said hello to Carl and left.

"Well, take care."

Carl looked back at Jack and Oliver who were half asleep in the room, and recalled the important matters decided last night.

The dog's name was definitely Qiuqiu.

As for how T-BUG did it.

She got Jack and Oliver drunk and recorded it.

She was convinced.

She is indeed a professional hacker, and she is really smart.

Although as far as Carl is concerned, he actually prefers the emperor-style naming style, such as No. 1, No. 2, etc., but Qiuqiu is also fine.

He is connected to the data anyway, and he doesn't need to call names.

Carl flipped through the communication and found that Mann had sent a message.

Carl told Mann Brown that if it was an urgent message, then he would add the two letters KK. At that time, his message filter would automatically mark it as important to remind Carl. Since Carl did not receive the reminder, it means that the message was not very important and not so urgent.

After flipping through it, Mann did not send much content.

To sum it up in one sentence.

They determined the location of the ninja and were ready to act tonight. Then, regarding the ninja, they found another person, who seemed to be an Arasaka ninja, but was not in the same group as the target ninja. On the contrary, it seemed to be chasing the target.

Hmm?

The other Arasaka ninja was not in the same group as the previous ninja, and was still chasing the previous target?

Carl frowned. Although the identities of Carl and his participants in this matter could not be exposed, they were generally on the side of Arasaka Haruko, and the target was a ninja who had participated in the assassination of Arasaka Haruko. From the perspective of the forces behind them, the two sides were in opposition.

In the opposing situation, a ninja who did not belong to their side or the opposite side came, and no one knew who was behind him.

A third party is involved.

This news seems a bit strange to Mann and his team, and it is not important, but it is very important to the people behind Carl.

Carl also knows that this is not Mann's fault. Mann and Brown have both served in the military, and I heard that they participated in the war of the new United States in the past, but they themselves have not served as senior officers, not even middle-level managers. When another person joins, they will only care about his identity as an Arasaka ninja, but will not think about the reason why both parties are Arasaka ninjas but are in opposition.

"This information is very important."

Carl did not explain to Mann and Brown that this involved the internal struggle of Arasaka, and it was not easy to involve them. He just sent them a message and told them the importance of the information.

"Help me monitor the people who are in contact with the ninjas. Don't have excessive contact. The safety of your own team is the most important. Your task is only to deal with the target. The other people are not within your responsibility."

After sending the message, Carl knew that even if he said so, Mann and Brown would still find out the people who were chasing him, so he had to remind them again: "If you must do it, pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, Carl, we understand."

Knowing that Carl was worried, Mann quickly replied after receiving the message: "But in the mercenary business, we have been doing it for so many years. Believe us, we will do it well."

"I trust you very much, but pay attention to safety, okay?"

"If we really encounter something we can't solve, we will ask for help."

Both Mann and Brown sent messages: "We all remember that you shouted when you needed us during the escort mission."

It is great to take on dangerous tasks, but when you encounter danger, as a mercenary, you can put down your face and ask for help, which is even more amazing.

When it is dangerous, calling for companions is also a kind of unspeakable deep trust for companions.

Even someone like K had asked them for help because he couldn't solve a problem. How could they lose face for that little bit of face?

"Well, I'm waiting for your message."

Being comforted and relieved, I have to say, this feeling is not bad.

Then what's next.

Carl looked at the number marked as Kenichi Shiro in the communication.

Dial the call.

Not long after, Kenichi Shiro's calm voice came from the other end: "Carl."

He no longer called Carl the mercenary KK, but formally called him by his name.

"I have a new discovery about the job I mentioned before. Is this communication line safe?

Can I tell you directly?"

"I understand what happened before. Wait five minutes, I'll switch the channel and call you back."

Kenichi Shiro hung up the phone quickly without saying a word to Carl, with a completely businesslike attitude.

This is what a boss who doesn't care about feelings is like. You can't even try to make do with him and have a good talk.

Carl started to go downstairs to buy breakfast and lunch for Oliver and Jack. While waiting at the stall, Kenichi Shiro's call came again.

But the first voice Carl heard was not Kenichi Shiro's.

"Good morning Carl, the weather is nice today. Do you see the clouds in the sky?"

This sound....

It belongs to Haruko Arasaka.

chant.

Didn't I say that Kenichi Shiro called? Why is it Haruko?

Karl subconsciously answered: "It's okay, but I can only see the sky in the sky between high-rise buildings. To be honest, I can't see very clearly."

"Is that so...that's a shame."

Haruko seemed to be planning to say something, and then Karl heard Kenichi Shiro's helpless words from over there:

"Miss, I'm borrowing your safe channel for business, not for you to chat."

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten, Mr. Kenichi Shiro.'

There was a smile in Haruko's voice, and she said goodbye to Carl: "Then I will give the communicator to Mr. Kenichi Shiro. Carl, please talk slowly. See you next time."

"See you next time."

In fact, to be precise, you can't see your face in this communication, so it can't be said to be a meeting, right?

When Karl thought this, Kenichi Shiro seemed to take over the communicator.

His voice was calmer now, with an unspeakable sense of depression: "If you have anything to say, just say it, Karl. I hope what you say this time is important enough, and..."

Kenichi Shiro's tone increased: "You are not allowed to call this number privately from now on, do you understand?

"For this kind of special number, outsiders must go through procedures if they want to call it."

Karl felt helpless at Kenichi Shiro's inexplicable defensiveness, but the matter was important, so he honestly told Kenichi Shiro the matter.
