Rhode Island main base, medical department.
Although the vacation of the operators is coming to an end, many people still choose to stay in Siesta until the last moment, so that Rhode Island is still deserted now.
However, Kelsey liked this feeling.
It was quiet, except for the smell of disinfectant water, the fatigue caused by long hours of work, and the sound of beeping in my ears from time to time.
In a laboratory, no matter how sophisticated the instruments are, they cannot be completely silent. Fortunately, the sound was not high in decibels and would not disturb Dr. Kelsey's work. Instead, it made her feel happy.
Just like soothing music makes the author code faster.
Even if it's just a little faster.
This kind of positive feedback will also make people feel comfortable, more focused, and more serious about the work at hand, and so on...
You can quickly reach the best state of "selflessness".
Thoughts are flowing like a fountain, my hands are as fast as lightning, and my arms are swinging like tigers and tigers like wind...
Then suddenly a cockroach flies over and wants to catch you all summer long.
My mind exploded instantly.
Just like Kelsey at this moment.
"There is a very familiar smell in the air. Hmm..."
A strangely dressed woman carrying a rectangular box somehow appeared in the Rhode Island laboratory.
She raised her head slightly, her nose twitched, and her brows slowly wrinkled.
It seemed that this familiar scent made the woman a little uncomfortable.
"If I hadn't actually boarded this vehicle, I would have thought I would still be at the beach."
She opened her eyes, her eyes met Kelsey's, and the corners of her mouth slowly raised.
Judging from appearance alone, the woman is very beautiful, and her clothes are avant-garde and fashionable.
It's just that her skin has a special luster, as if she's been smeared with oil, and her facial features are slightly tough, but they're different from those of men, like...
A fish turned into a beauty.
"This place has recently received several Agor people."
Kelsey naturally could tell the woman's race at a glance.
"You are also a visitor to Agol, but I didn't see your name on the visitor list."
"I may not be able to receive you."
These words were just like her gaze, with a coldness that could repel people thousands of miles away.
Only a semblance of basic courtesy remained.
"Ah, I'm sorry, but I won't bother you anymore. I'll just say something and leave. I won't stay here for too long."
The woman was naturally aware of Kelsey's emotions, and she actually seemed a little panicked in her words.
But her expression was indifferent, giving people an uncomfortable sense of separation.
"...Hey, you actually know my name?"
Only then did she react.
"Everyone who has been staying in the Xista area these days doesn't know your name."
"Although I didn't go there, I've heard about it for a long time."
Kelsey's eyes glanced at the box behind the woman.
"Ms. Alty, the bassist of Eternal Sunset, Rhode Island is not a place that you can just come and go at will."
A polite warning.
At least that's the case for Kelsey.
You can't expect her to smile, right?
"Ah, hey, don't be so hostile."
He said so, but Alty had no intention of leaving at all, and seemed determined to have a chat with Kelsey.
"After all, we have a lot in common, right? For example, when we can still see the stars?"
She still had that flattering smile on her face.
It's just that this smile is more or less fake.
"——Please sit down."
Kelsey was not impressed by politeness. Obviously, Alty's last sentence bought her precious communication time.
There's even a chair to sit on.
"Thank you. You must be curious about how I got in, right?"
Although he didn't know who sent the chair behind him, Alty still chose to accept this hard-won kindness.
Don't forget to give Kelsey a vaccination.
"It's not important. You don't have to worry about any loopholes in Rhode Island's security facilities. It's just my luck."
"Words cannot hide your strength. Don't worry, I'm not too worried. At least it will only be open to important visitors."
Kelsey's face was expressionless.
It's good that many operators have not returned, but the Supervision Department is still functioning, and the shadow has not left the island.
In addition to these people, PRTS also operates around the clock, monitoring every entrance, exit, and corridor of the Rhode Island main base. It can be said that not even a fly can fly in.
But these defensive measures are useless in front of Alty.
Kelsey could roughly guess her true identity.
"But how did a music superstar become interested in this tiny ward?"
But no matter what the identity of the other party is, it is an indisputable fact that she broke through all the precautions and came here.
Fortunately, Alty is not hostile. At least she hasn't stabbed Kelsey to the core yet.
If she came here with other intentions...
I'll deduct all of Shadow's bonus as soon as I turn around.
Kelsey thought in her mind.
"If you're trying to catch up with your Agor friends, you're probably in the wrong room."
"Friends?...Can't talk about it? No, I should say, I'm a bit far away from friends..."
Alty thought of a guy wearing a black nun uniform and that guy's teammates.
The thought of these people repelled her in her heart.
"Actually, I'm here to see you. Or rather, I'm here to see you."
"I'm sorry, I don't know you, and I'm not a zoo exhibit."
Kelsey's humor is as alienating as her aura.
Might as well not have it.
"I've heard a lot about the Argor people's rumors from Frost. She rarely tells stories..."
Alty seemed to have not heard Kelsey's words and spoke to himself.
He obviously said that he came to see her at first, but then he started talking about the Agor people.
"I'm not interested in hearing about your friends' bizarre adventures..."
"How about singing it?"
What a free bass player.
"I wish you could be more direct."
Kelsey lost interest in the conversation. If it weren't for the other party's true identity, she might have asked PRTS to see her off.
"I've been told that small talk can lighten the mood, but I don't seem to be very successful at that."
Alty smiled awkwardly.
But the smile disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Then let's get started."
"I actually hate them Agor people. Of course, I also know that they are indeed quite pitiful."
"It's just that if you hadn't appeared, these Agor people might have sunk to the bottom of the sea and been swallowed by the dark ocean."
"I didn't do anything important."
Kelsey shook her head slowly.
As an immortal who has lived for who knows how long, her understanding of the word "important" is far beyond that of ordinary people.
To ordinary people, the things Kelsey had done, those hinted at in Alty's words, could no longer be described as "important."
"You saved them, and there are several here."
Alty spread his hands.
"But these special Agor people don't respect you at all, even though you have done so much for them."
The girl from the deep sea tilted her head.
"Are you too cruel to them?"
"I'm just stopping them from destroying themselves."
The look on Kelsey's face when she said this was like a strict parent saying to their child, 'I'm doing this for your own good.'
"That's also a manifestation of compassion, doctor...but that's where my problem lies."
"Please say."
"Do you know what the enemies of the Argors are?"
As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the ward dropped sharply.
Even though the number on the thermometer remained unchanged, Kelsey still felt the salty cold licking her skin.
"Or, you actually know my true identity, right?"
