“To withdraw money, first of all, you have to apply for a bank card. Most mercury needles will choose Grayscale Bank. Of course, you can choose another one, but Grayscale’s confidentiality will be better.
"Since you are not yet an adult, you need to be accompanied by a guardian to open a bank card - but it doesn't have to be so troublesome. When you are over 20 years old, you can just bring your ID card to apply. It will be a little complicated at the beginning. The procedure will be simple later.”
"but……"
Hesta has not yet recovered from the shock - how could there be so much money?
"The bonus for a single extremely dangerous battle is about 100,000 to 500,000, and the reward for a medium-risk battle is 10,000 to 100,000. If you feel that the number is wrong, you can do the math yourself later." Ava narrowed her eyes, "...You really have never Have you checked your account?”
"No."
"You haven't spent any money in these years?"
"I spent it," Hesta replied, "Miss Chiba opened a secondary card for me. She said that I can directly charge her account if needed."
Ava understood.
"Speaking of Chiba, Jane, I have to show you something."
She tapped her hands on the keyboard and quickly opened a page - that was the appointment letter Chiba got from the 004 office. From now on, she will return to Tan Yi and participate in Hof as an aid worker for AHgAs. The Mann case is under investigation.
A moment of astonishment flashed in Hesta's eyes, "...Why did Miss Chiba get involved? Didn't the coalition government already send a team of their mercury needles?"
"Are you surprised?" Ava looked at her, "I had a premonition when Qianye came here to see you last time... I guess this was what she asked for, in order to personally prove your innocence."
Hesta read the relevant documents again and carefully read Chiba's responsibilities in this case.
"...It's too dangerous," Hesta couldn't help but shake her head. "She is still my guardian. If I am accidentally exposed, how can she tell me clearly? Why didn't Office 004 refuse her request? She should To avoid suspicion.”
"Qianye is a person who is hard to refuse." Ava said softly, "I guess she went there with you: After the Hoffman case, the nobles in Tanyi City They will definitely realize that it could be you. Once they tell the story of that year and identify the murderer of Fernan as the same person who committed the murder in Tanyi City - then your suspicion of committing the crime will be cleared immediately.
"For this reason, she will definitely be involved in Huffman's investigation."
Hesta lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, "Can you retrieve the coordinates of Miss Chiba?"
"Yes, but it will take time." Ava said calmly, "Her current rank is about the same as mine, so the process will be a little more complicated."
"Ava." Hesta breathed a sigh of relief, "...Why do you seem to be able to do anything?"
"I'm not a god. How can I do anything?"
"But you just did it all."
"That's because the requests you made are too simple." Ava said softly, "Take the coordinates of Chiba as an example. What do you think I will do? Technically confront AHgAs's data network head-on. ?"
"...Isn't that so?"
Ava laughed several times in succession, as if she had heard a very interesting joke, "Jane, you overestimate my personal power and underestimate AHgAs's technical means. Our intranet is an iron wall, and any attempt to access it from The enemy who rushes in head-on will only be captured by us before he succeeds."
Hesta frowned.
"Of course, it is not impossible to break in head-on, but that is not the safest and most convenient method," Ava said softly, "In every era, technology is changing, and the defenses in the digital world will only become more and more Stronger and more complex - but all advanced technologies have a common weakness."
Ava paused and stared at Hesta.
"...The person who operates it?" Hesta tried to answer.
"That's right." Ava smiled, "Throughout the ages, no matter how technology changes, people have remained the same.
"Now that I need to retrieve the coordinates of Chiba, I won't think about any side theories at all. I will directly write an email to Office 004 to warn that Chiba is Hesta's guardian and may interfere with the investigation in related cases. , trying his best to help Hesta get out of crime, protesting against Office 004 for allowing Chiba to intervene in the investigation.
"It would be best if 004 could directly ask Chiba to quit, but since Chiba can convince 004 to let her join, it can be seen that she has also given some reasons that 004 cannot refuse.
"Then, when 004 rejected my request and insisted that Chiba participate in the 'murder photography' case, I could logically ask 004 to give me Chiba's personal coordinates during the investigation - and let me personally supervise her. behavior to ensure that she did not operate illegally during the process.
"Understood, Jane?" Ava said softly, "From the beginning to the end, you have to work hard to be a righteous friend. You have to be vigilant about everything you do behind the scenes, including the plan you are executing now - not that Because they have any moral flaws, but these methods often require people's careful consideration, and they are prone to mistakes due to accidents of one kind or another... At least in front of others, you must learn to only tell the truth on any occasion."
"Tell the truth, but lie to everyone?"
“No one can deceive everyone, and all lies will be exposed one day, but you must learn to distinguish which truths should be told at the moment and which moments should be kept silent.
"Because there is a huge gap between how people actually live and how they should live. If a person gives up what ordinary people actually do for what she should do, then she is not saving It is self-destruction.”
Hesta fell into silence again. Ava's words seemed to have some deeper meaning. She felt that she should understand, but she was not sure if she really understood.
If there was a line between black and white in this world, then Valenti and Liz were undoubtedly the ones standing at the center of the snow-white world, as was Turan, Rico was slightly more marginal, and Chiba was much more marginal - even , Miss Chiba sometimes jumps repeatedly between the black realm and the white realm.
Today, Ava seems to be saying that there is a land between black and white, it is gray, and its territory is so vast, far beyond her expectation.
Hesta recalled Ava's last words. The old man's voice was low and slow, just like the day he recited "Mountains Under the Storm" in the glass house.
"Is this also from a book?" Hesta asked.
"right."
"Which one?"
"The "Origin" I gave you yesterday," Ava looked at her, "Have you read it?"
"...I read a little bit about it yesterday."
Ava smiled, "Read the books one by one... When is your judgment day?"
"November 13th."
"Stop reading and spend your energy preparing to respond to questions."
