Purse Fanny just quietly watched these people performing hard, as if watching a crude farce.

Regarding the conclusion that "Theseus" was sent to the company headquarters by Icarus as a "bomb" for a terrorist attack, there were so many loopholes in it that she didn't even bother to try to refute it.

Those who can come to work in Tartarus are all elites in their respective fields, and in front of them, this kind of statement is almost like telling lies.

Compared with this conclusion that is full of loopholes, Fanny finds another thing even more funny - even though everyone knows in their heart that they are talking nonsense, they also know that others know that they know that this is nonsense...

But everyone still has to try hard to pretend to be "I believe it."

Just like in "The Emperor's New Clothes", even though everyone sees the king parading naked, they still try to praise how beautiful the clothes are.

But the really funniest thing is not this...

Fanny thought.

Afterwards, the entire meeting focused on these two topics, which lasted more than two hours, but what was actually said could be explained clearly in just two sentences.

"...In view of the Board of Directors' concern about the progress of the biological protein chip 'Pegasus' reverse reduction project, we believe that allowing Ms. Perse Fanny to continue to be responsible for various matters in the Nord Resettlement Area may cause the project to Lagging behind. Considering what the non-governmental organization 'Icarus' in the Nord resettlement area has been doing, we also think that your previous strategy was a little inappropriate, so..."

Finally, the host looked at Fanny and said the real purpose of the meeting:

"We hope that in the near future - specifically, when their geothermal power station is completed - the company will be able to deploy a rapid reaction force to immediately decapitate the terrorist organization and completely eradicate their presence on the ground floor of the settlement area. Poisonous.

"As for this job, please forgive me for being rude, this job is not suitable for you. Therefore, we intend to replace your job with someone more suitable for this job.

"So, what's your opinion?"

As these words came to light, everyone's eyes in the conference room turned to him.

And there was a gaze among them that made her feel particularly heavy.

That's when he closed his eyes and meditated since the meeting was announced. Prison D, who never said a word during the entire meeting.

Director of the Offensive Security Defense Coordination Center and Lord of Cerberus.

He opened his eyes and looked at himself, as if asking himself to give an answer that would satisfy everyone present.

Fanny understood that today's meeting, whether it was the lame reason or the funny conclusion, was the intention of this quasi-high-level figure who had the right to meet the board of directors.

Everything that seemed like a farce before was actually paving the way for this moment.

He hoped that he could hand over the power in his hands and continue to focus on the research on the reverse restoration of the prosthetic "Pegasus" instead of continuing to mess around in the resettlement area.

Should you be proud of being treated like this?

Fanny thought bitterly.

Because he was a director who was deeply infiltrated by Pluto, and he personally poached him from Apollo Biology at a huge cost. Under the aura of being cared for by the "director", she can be said to be in a transcendent position within Tartarus.

Although he may not have any substantive rights, most of his requirements can actually be met. Moreover, no one dares to stumbling upon themselves publicly.

Probably because of this, the other party needs to use this roundabout method to put pressure on themselves and make them give up voluntarily.

Otherwise, based on the level difference between them under the company's rating system, if the other party wants to take back their power. According to the company's system, it should only be a matter of one sentence.

There is absolutely no need to create such a scene.

Now, Fanny finally figured it out.

Now, she knew that the other party was lying - that the other party was actually using her from the beginning. He allowed himself to take over the Nord Resettlement Area, only intending to unload it after the other party completed the construction of the geothermal power station, and then support gangs loyal to the company to take over the underground of the settlement area.

Now, she knew they were afraid of the potential of "Theseus" and of the "Hecate" that might ride on him and continue to wreak havoc on the company. Therefore, in order to eliminate the possibility of those Icaros finally resisting, they want to kill the innocent man.

She knows, she knows...

She once wanted to save some people, and she once wanted to find a way for the company and the people to survive together.

But these are...

She couldn't help but recall the scene earlier when she went to negotiate in person on the ground floor of the resettlement area for the first time.

The child named "Liao Qi" said to himself at that time - you can't actually do anything.

The reality is exactly what the child who crawled from the bottom said.

I can't do anything myself.

At this moment, Perse Fanny looked around at the people in the conference room - in her opinion, these people were wrapped in the so-called "protection of human wisdom" and told lies that even she did not believe. Parade in the streets naked.

Parading naked down the street was hilarious.

It's even funnier when everyone tries to pretend they can see the clothes.

But in the end, the funniest thing is me...

Fanny thought.

In the conference room, under the gaze of countless eyes, Fanny felt that she had never been so powerless.

She didn't have the courage to be the child who exposed the lies.

The words came to her lips several times, but she still didn't have the courage to say them in front of everyone.

In the end, what she said was:

"Then who will take over my job in the resettlement area?"

After being silent for a while, she lowered her voice and asked.

"We will conduct a democratic vote later. But please don't worry, no matter who you choose, in future operations against the terrorist organization Icarus, we will only behead the top leaders of the organization and the masterminds behind it. No innocents will be harmed, no matter what It may cause less harm to the residents at the bottom of the resettlement area...your previous efforts will be retained."

The host answered.

"The Wolfsbane unit and Ye Qian, who is familiar with the local situation, have been internally decided to take over the work, and will kill everyone in the Icarus Liberation Front - they would rather kill by mistake than let go."

The other party's words were automatically translated in Fanny's mind.

But she didn't want to trust her translator.

"What are you going to do with 'Theseus' who became the 'Wanderer' before, and the other Icarus members who participated in the deep-diving salvage?"

Fanny continued to ask.

"We will 'innoculate' Theseus first to ensure that he does not pose a threat to the safety of Tartarus. As for the other Icarus members, we will be here for them before confirming their safety. Put the right work in place.”

The man replied and continued.

"We will inject a 'scavenger' injection into the brain of Theseus' creature. As for the other people, we will let them mine until they die as planned."

Fanny continued to translate in her mind again.

"If that's the case... then let me think about it again.

"At least let me think about the Nord settlement area."

After a long silence, she spoke with difficulty.

Seeing this, the host directly confirmed:

"That is to say, the authority to handle the prisoners of war of Icarus, including 'Theseus', is now given to us, right?"

Fanny closed her eyes - she had promised those people that she would let them go home.

After a while, she nodded.

Prison D, who had been silent next to him, saw this and immediately sent an order to the fourth prison.

[The non-threat transformation of the codename Theseus begins now]

After receiving the order, the Cerberus members immediately opened the suitcase that had been prepared and took out a series of equipment including the "Scavenger" - the so-called "transformation" means that after completing enough After experiments and tests, the activities of the opponent's biological brain are finally terminated.

Perhaps because they were too focused on the work at hand, they did not notice that at the entrance of another prison not far away, the display screen used to monitor the subject's life data suddenly flashed a mosaic.

That prison is the prison where Carol Christie, the "Abyssal One", is imprisoned.

It seems too late, I'm guilty
