Everyone's eyes froze for a moment: "...What is this?"
"It is a new project launched by Office 003 last year. It is very low-key and has almost no internal publicity. The project is dedicated to providing high-level training materials for senior members - senior members here usually refer to those who have multiple high-risk or extremely dangerous combat experiences. Mercury needle.”
"Why have I never heard of this kind of training?" Theresa looked at Zoe who was nearby, "Have you heard of this project?"
Zoe shook her head, looking equally confused.
"Me neither," Victoria shrugged. "Those like us who are always temporarily deployed to fight in various places do not need this kind of training. Most of the mercury needles participating in this project are people who have been stationed in a certain wilderness for a long time. .”
"Like Rogozhin?"
"Yes, like Rogozhin." Viktoria nodded, "Although these mercury needles also have sufficient experience in combating chelates, they still lack some specific knowledge of the aberrations that have gradually appeared in recent years - After all, not everyone has encountered it directly; in addition, the ability of mercury needles can easily attract personality worship in the wasteland. Some mercury needles can easily discern the strength of the enemy and ourselves, make some wrong judgments on the battlefield, and incur unnecessary consequences. sacrifice.
"So the 'Semi-Open Source Project' deliberately selected some images of our past battles with aberrations, including some chelates that caused huge losses - such as Doctor Jiashe, and provided them as tactical supplementary information to those with mercury needles. ...It can be regarded as advanced training for these colleagues."
"Have these images been made public!?"
"If it's not made public, how can it be made public... All training is conducted in reserve bases in various places. The videos are not allowed to be copied. Internal discussions can only be viewed internally and cannot be taken out... But this may be an exception for assassins - —If she can even get the real-time coordinates of the mercury needle on the job, what's the difficulty in mastering these image data?"
"...What should we do now?" Zoe looked at Victoria, "Do we have to report these findings?"
"Retribution, of course I have to repay it." Victoria answered decisively.
Zoe: “Then why don’t we just alert the enemy—”
Victoria: "We already alerted the enemy yesterday afternoon. If we didn't notice anything, then why did we suddenly change the bionic arm when everything was fine?"
Everyone fell into silence again, the situation in front of them was more difficult than they imagined.
A real enemy is uncertain at this moment, and other potential enemies have just surfaced, and this person - perhaps more than one - is very likely to hold a high position internally.
Although from the current point of view, the enemy has not shown a vicious side to the Mercury Needles, as long as the assassins commit crimes in the habitable area, they cannot stand idly by and it will be a matter of time before the two sides actually meet each other.
More importantly, if the assassin is not a chelate and does not come from inside the mercury needle, the things involved may be much more complicated.
Teresa had already figured this out. She looked up and sighed, "I understand. Telling this news will at least have the effect of shaking the mountain... Maybe the 004 office will give us more support in the future."
Endai chewed the word "after" uneasily. She looked at Theresa: "...Do you think this matter is not over yet? The assassin is still alive?"
"Before you see the traces of this person's body, just pretend that she is still alive." Victoria lowered her eyes, "Be prepared for the worst in everything."
Zoe raised her hand, “Victoria, I still have some guesses.”
"you say."
"One thing I have always cared about is that all the victims were obviously identifying a mercury needle named 'Jane Hestad', but neither our people nor the coalition government people took this clue seriously before. , but instead directly excluded this person as a suspect on the grounds that 'the person involved is not in the third area', I think this is ridiculous."
Immediately afterwards, Zoe gave a general description of the "restriction theory" that she had mentioned to Endai before - if this Hesta is still on this continent, no matter whether she is in the third area or not, she may use him Tan Yi has the ability to travel long distances to kill people.
"Since the existing clues indicate that the assassin may have access to our core data, we might as well make a bold guess that the assassin can also directly escape the monitoring of the chip in some way - she works as usual during the day like all mercury needles , at night, he transforms into an 'assassin'——"
"It is also a very reasonable guess," Victoria interrupted her again, "I have always suspected that Jane Hestad may indeed be inextricably linked to the assassin, but I can assert that this There is no way a human being could be an assassin.”
Zoe was very dissatisfied with Victoria's inexplicable certainty: "Why! Obviously——"
"Originally I shouldn't have mentioned this matter, but since the discussion has come to this point, I will tell you directly. Because of Fernan's previous case, Hesta has been imprisoned in the province of Nia these days."
"You can escape even if you're imprisoned, right? Anyway, she has someone to help her——"
"She has been in the personal custody of Ava Morgan and was only transferred to a separate prison yesterday."
As soon as Ava Morgan's name came out, everyone realized the weight of "imprisonment" here.
In these years, seventeen mercury needles in the third area have been sent to the electric chair by Ava for committing crimes - this data even exceeds the number of mercury needle combat deaths in some large areas in the past ten years.
Of all the mercury needles sent to hell by Ava, the most famous one should be a fifteen-year-old juvenile delinquent who raped and brutally murdered a local slave during a mission in the wilderness.
At first, the suspect tried his best to deny the crime and made several serious protests against Ava's forced detention. However, in the face of the irrefutable evidence obtained during the subsequent investigation, he had to confess everything and beg for mercy in tears.
Because the suspect was young and behaved well, many people at the time believed that appropriate punishment should be supplemented and guidance and discipline should be the main focus. However, they did not expect that after the trial, the twelve female mercury needle jurors unanimously approved the death penalty verdict - afterwards Some people have repeatedly suggested that someone must have taken advantage of procedural loopholes at the time and secretly manipulated the selection of jurors that year.
However, due to the lack of evidence at the time, the matter had to be left undisturbed. This matter has always been regarded by some mercury needles as a judicial stain within AHgAs.
However, Ava, who was suspected of "manipulating the judiciary", instead of restraining herself afterwards, wrote five consecutive comment articles on the case. She lashed out at the culture of some people within AHgAs who valued mercury needle life above all else. These five articles sparked a lively discussion and were compiled into a slim volume:
