The Wheel of Chronos

Lan Ni quickly sent someone to pack her luggage. During this process, she was constantly connecting with many people and was very busy.As the chief of staff representing the minds of the imperial military, the General Staff Committee she led played a vital role in formulating the overall strategic direction and specific tactical guidelines.

Tianyang and Xuelun have been following her all the time, and from her conversations on the line, they basically restored the original appearance of what happened on the front line.

Shule Island on the front line and its neighboring Feiniao Island were attacked at night, around four o'clock in the morning on January 1. The EMP bomb and subsequent explosion damaged all communication equipment on the two artificial islands, delaying the air raid warning and rescue signal for several hours.This time, the sneak attack at night was preliminarily judged to be caused by separatist rebels within the empire. The invading forces on the two islands were only a small team of 1 people, but they were well-trained and all were masters.During the sneak attack, they blew up all the aircraft carrier amphibious mechs equipped on the two islands, a cruiser, and the command center on Shule Island, causing a total of more than 20 soldiers on the two islands to be injured to varying degrees, and one soldier died. .And the only female soldier who died was a mecha maintainer on Shule Island, with the rank of second lieutenant. At that time, she was doing maintenance alone in the amphibious mecha warehouse.The cause of death was respiratory failure caused by being shot in the lungs. According to the judgment of the on-site investigators who rushed to the scene afterwards, she may be the target of the enemy's sneak attack.Before the explosion, the maintainer had already been shot and died. Moreover, her body shape and hair color were very similar to Tian Yang's.As we all know, besides driving mechas, repairing mechas is one of her few hobbies.In the past when she was on the front line, she would often come to the mecha warehouse to do maintenance by herself.

"What kind of sneak attack target? Why did the enemy sneak attack a mecha maintainer? This sneak attack is obviously aimed at me." When Lan Ni finally hung up the phone, Tian Yang said.Her complexion was not very good-looking, her fists were clenched, and she was obviously angry.

"Don't think about it, the specific reason needs to be investigated in detail." Lan Ni glared at her.

"Mom, I'll go with you too."

"Don't even think about going anywhere, just stay here honestly." Lan Ni said.

At this time, Lan Ni's personal maid who helped pack the luggage had already come out dragging the suitcase, and Lan Ni led her straight to the elevator.

"Mom!" Tianyang called her from behind.

"I said no, you know the consequences." Lan Ni said without turning her head.

Tianyang gritted his teeth, could only stop, and sighed heavily.

Two minutes later, Tian Yang stood at the window of the guest house, watching the building take Lan Ni's car away.Sharon patted her on the back and said:

"Don't be awkward, Her Royal Highness is thinking about your safety. This sneak attack is indeed aimed at you, so you can't appear on the front line."

"I understand the truth, but I'm just very angry. Why should an innocent mech maintainer just die for me like this. If I don't do something, I won't be able to sleep." Tianyang looked at Xue Lun and said , she frowned, half angry and half resentful, it was very fresh to watch.

Sharon felt that things were not that simple.She didn't know if the current world situation in world line b was the same as before.Assuming they are all the same, then, the other party doesn't know about the news that Tianyang has withdrawn from the front line to the rear?The other party still attacked Shule Island, obviously the information was wrong.Where does the error come from?Are there traitors within the military too?These are all problems.

"Be careful. I always feel that there are several forces behind you wanting your life. You are really surrounded by wolves. Moreover, the Academy of Sciences is not completely safe. I think we need to find Opportunity to leave here." Sharon said.

Tianyang pursed his lips, smiled suddenly, and said: "Then I will leave the task of protecting me to you, anyway, you will not harm me. You are so desperate to save me, and you have the super power to reverse time, training You are known to have the qualities of a special soldier, he is simply the best bodyguard."

Sharon: "..." Did this guy take his own life at heart?

"In short, let's pack up our luggage first. Pack the necessary things and take them with you, and leave the extra things behind. The safety of the Academy of Sciences is even less guaranteed when Queen Lani is away. We'd better leave here tonight. "

"Good idea!" Tianyang held her by the shoulders, "Let's go now, quietly catch up with my mother, get to the front line before her, and give her a surprise. When we go to the front line, she will drive me away. It's such an easy thing, when the time comes, I'll ask my mother to assign me a new combat mission, take you with me, and let's take down Lemuria together. Then activate Lemuria's energy reactor and send you back six years ago."

"No, you can't go to the front!" Sharon immediately objected.

"Why do you say such things?" Tianyang was upset.

"Didn't I just say that there are several forces targeting your life now. And this includes the continent of Lemuria, have you forgotten that before you went to the front line, Lemuria sent aircraft to repel you?" On the edge of the force field, I’m going to use a big move to kill you. If you go to the front again, wouldn’t you die? And not only you will die, but many people will be buried with you, and the war between the two continents will start soon.” Xue Lun said .

Tianyang looked dignified, but finally shrugged pretending to be relaxed, and said:

"Then we leave the Academy of Sciences, where are we going?"

Sharon thought about it carefully, and said: "Let's go back to my home in London first, we have to find helpers, first meet Uncle Jack and Aunt Joan."

The two immediately returned to the room to pack their things. During the following lunch and dinner hours, they appeared in the restaurant of the guest house as usual, and greeted the people from the armed security department.

Speaking of which, Satoko Kakutani, the director of the armed security department, has not appeared for several days since she first appeared.Of course, this is Tianyang's statement. It seems that Satoko Kakutani only showed up once in the a-2 world line or the b world line.

This is normal to say, but if you say it is suspicious, it is indeed a bit suspicious.Perhaps as a leader, Satoko Kakutani has a lot of airs. After coming to greet the guards in person to show respect for the first time, it is normal to not show up again and again.But the people she wants to protect are the most important queens and princesses in the empire after all. Even if she doesn't come every day, it is necessary for her to make inspections every now and then. She doesn't show up all the time, which seems a bit suspicious.

After dinner, Xue Lun came to the Tianyang Room with her hiking bag on her back.No matter where she goes, Sharon is used to carrying a mountaineering bag in her suitcase for emergencies, and now it just comes in handy.There are all the necessary supplies in the bag. In addition to personal items, her hiking bag also contains a strong rope found in the linen room of the guest house, which is about seven or eight meters long, and two pairs of work gloves.New energy glare flashlights, first aid medicine, food reserves, portable tableware, and multi-function daggers are all necessary for her to go out.In addition, she specially brought a 20kg water storage bag in case of emergency.

The two carefully checked each other's bracelets, and confirmed that no locators or monitors were installed in the bracelets, and then Sharon installed a network shielding program for the two bracelets.Sharon brought an outdoor watch, which just happened to come in handy.

"How old-fashioned you are, how much you don't believe in modern technology products." Tian Yang couldn't help asking.

"Sometimes, you really can't trust technology products, especially technology products that need to obtain your personal information. They are all tools to sell your privacy to the manufacturer. People spend money and lose their privacy. It's not ridiculous to be complacent and compare each other." Xue Lun said.

Tianyang tilted his head and thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Well said."

In contrast, Tianyang's luggage is much simpler. Except for the military uniform, she hardly brings anything. Instead, she hides a Heckler-Koch SOCOMMark23M0d0 in her bag, which is really her style.

"Show me what clothes you've brought." When she was about to leave, Xue Lun saw the military coat on Tian Yang's body, and couldn't help saying, "You can't wear this military uniform, it's too conspicuous."

"But I don't have any other clothes to wear. I came directly from the front line to the rear. There is only a military uniform in my luggage." Tianyang said helplessly, looking at the black jacket on Xuelun's body, she said, "How about you lend me one?" clothes to wear?"

Xue Lun seemed to have expected that she had no clothes to wear, so she directly took a pilot jacket from the mountaineering bag and threw it to Tian Yang, saying, "Put it on."

"Wow... this is, imitation of the British Air Force pilot jacket in World War II. Your taste..." Tianyang held the jacket and dragged out the end of the sound. Seeing that Sharon rolled his eyes, he couldn't help changing his mouth and said with a smile:

"Good."

"Hmph." Sharon snorted coldly.

This person is really cute... Tianyang's eyes softened, and he muttered inwardly.Thinking of this, she took off her military uniform and stuffed it into her military backpack, put on the jacket, and zipped it up.

"It's just right, it seems that we are about the same size. Um... It's just that the chest is a little..."

"Shut up!" Sharon said.

Tianyang smiled and raised his hands in surrender.

"Let's go, it's almost time." Sharon looked at the bracelet, it was just after 11 o'clock at night.

According to the plan they had discussed before, they planned to slip away from the purchase aisle of the back kitchen of the restaurant of the guest house.The back kitchen of this hostel has two floors in total. The first floor is mainly the banquet hall, and the second floor has boxes.The freight elevator was not for people to ride on, but Xue Lun observed it through the digital prosthetic eye during the meal today, and it is not a problem to squeeze two people into it.There is no surveillance camera in the back kitchen, so the action will be more covert.

What they need to consider now is to avoid the surveillance of the armed security department, reach the back kitchen of the restaurant on the second floor, then take the food elevator down to the first floor, and go out through the purchase channel of the back kitchen on the first floor.

Apparently, the most difficult phase of the operation began when he left the room.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the armed guards monitoring the corridor outside their room, Xue Lun first returned to her own room from Tianyang's room. During the process, she did not carry her own backpack, but left it in Tianyang's. in the room.When she went to Tianyang's room before, she did carry her hiking bag in her hand, and she didn't bring a bag when she returned, which just reassured the surveillance party's doubts and made them think that she was just sending something to Tianyang.

Back in the room, Sharon used the radio headset to connect to Tianyang, then whispered:

"I counted to three, and we turned on the network shielding of the wristband at the same time, so that our positioning was always in the room. Then I will turn on the data signal blocker, blocking the transmission of the pictures taken by the camera in the corridor, and the monitoring party sees It’s just the state of the corridor before we go out. You listen to my command and follow my pace. The influence range of the interrupter is five meters, so we can’t walk too fast or too slow.”

Tianyang's response came from the intercom headset: "Understood."

"one two Three!"

The two clicked on the start button of the shielding program on the bracelet at the same time.

"Open the door." Sharon said.

Xue Lun opened the door first and walked out, followed by Tian Yang, dragging their bags and walking out, they closed the door, Tian Yang threw Xue Lun's bag to her, they carried their bags and started to move forward.Sharon's progress was slow and even, very similar to the state when she was out for a walk after eating too much for dinner and drinking two glasses of wine.

Along the way, Xue Lun, who led the way, was very cautious. Every time he came to a corner, he must stop and observe, and instead of taking the elevator, he took the stairs to go downstairs.They lived on the third floor and didn't meet anyone in the corridor, but when they went downstairs, they encountered obstacles.Because there happened to be two male members of the armed security department smoking and chatting in the stairwell.They had to stop and wait.

"When will the mission given to us come to an end? I haven't had a holiday for two weeks, so I just pointed out that I can have a holiday during the Chinese New Year. What happened? My wife and son are still waiting for me at home." One of the men complained.

"It's an honor for you to complain so much about protecting the royal family."

"Glory, heh, who can know this glory? We signed a non-disclosure agreement."

Speaking of this, there was a faint sound of opening the door of the stairwell on the third floor, followed by slight footsteps, as if someone was about to come downstairs.Xue Lun and Tian Yang, who were on the landing between the third floor and the second floor, were startled at the same time. Xue Lun drew out the dagger, and Tian Yang gripped the gun tightly.At this moment, they have no way forward and no way out, and there is no window to jump in, and they have already fallen into a situation where they are bound to be discovered.

However, the person on the third floor did not come out of the shadows, but stopped halfway down, as if realizing that there were people downstairs.Immediately, a small object was thrown from the dark shadow of the stairs above, and landed in front of Sharon.

It was a white handkerchief.

As we all know, the white handkerchief has the meaning of surrender.The other party is not malicious?

In the shadows, the comer finally appeared.Tianyang and Xuelun frowned at the same time.

It's Satoko Kakutani.
