After leaving Crawford's house, the group did not go far, but completed the creative collection task nearby before leaving the west side avenue and returning to the harbor area.
As early as when Li En was drinking tea with his old classmates, Yuna received a contact from the receptionist of the RF Building, saying that the Epstein Foundation had officially begun operations.
Because it was said that the director would be there in the morning and could come over at any time, Yuna was not in a hurry. She took care of the other two commissions first and it was not too late to go there.
Speaking of which, the building where Epstein is located did not originally belong to the Lineforte Group, but was the headquarters of IBC before the completion of the Orchid Tower. Later, it was damaged due to the "Red Constellation" attack on Crossbell, and the IBC headquarters was also moved to the Orchid Tower.
Inside, the former headquarters is in a state of repair.
However, before the repairs were completed, President Dita began to argue for independence. It was not long before he was arrested by the Support Section headed by Lloyd, and what followed was an invasion by the Empire.
When everything was settled, IBC's business and scale shrank significantly. Not only did it move out of the Orchid Tower, but its former headquarters was sold to the Lineforte Group in exchange for liquidity.
As a result, the IBC headquarters became the RF Building. Since Lineforte did not have enough manpower to fill the building in Crossbell, the group rented out some floors, and the tenants included the counters of the Epstein Consortium and IBC——
It’s sad that the largest conglomerate in mainland China got involved in this.
Of course, the only one that counts is the IBC, not the Epstein Consortium. It is a leader in the field of guidance science and has close cooperation with Leinfort. It is more beneficial for the two parties to be close to each other.
Please inform the receptionist. The group of people waited in the lobby for a while. Soon, a girl with long blue hair, cat ears, and a white coat, about the same age as Yuna, came down from the elevator.<

This girl has similar characteristics to Altina. She obviously has an extremely delicate appearance, but she is as plain as face - ahem, there is no such thing, cross it out - she always has a straight face, expressionless, exuding
An aura that prevents strangers from entering.
However, this indifference did not scare Yuna. Instead, she ran over with excitement.
"Senior Tio, you are back!"
The girl named Tio nodded: "Yes, I came back just after Yuna left. It's been a long time since I last saw you, and I see you are very energetic, which is great."
"Senior Tio, too, ah, so you are the new director?"
"Haha, that's it."
"You guys know each other." Kurt walked over.
Behind her, Altina exchanged glances with Rean. The two of them had seen her information in the intelligence agency's report.
Her full name is Tio Prato. She is sixteen years old and is a genius girl who belongs to the Epstein Foundation. She has extraordinary abilities and talents in the Guidance Network and is also a member of the Support Section.
Missy fanatics - this is exclusive information provided by Yuna.
After Crossbell was occupied by the Empire, she did not embark on the escape road with Lloyd, but she was not imprisoned by the Spot Circle like Randy because of her special status.
Not only is his hometown no longer in Crossbell, but his true belonging is also in the Epstein Consortium. He is stationed at the police station by the consortium. He is still a minor. Even the empire cannot push him too far.
At most, they would be sent back to the Leman Autonomous Prefecture where the consortium is headquartered, but soon, she came back as the director of distribution and development of the consortium Crossbell. To some extent, she was a problem girl that caused more headaches for the intelligence agency than the few people who were at large.

This commission is not just about looking for help when something goes wrong, but also about contacting the second branch and Li En.
The encounter between Rean and Lloyd a year and a half ago not only left a deep impression on Rean, but also made the support department aware of Rean's existence. In addition, Randy's teaching, Yuna's
It’s natural for Tio to be curious about reading.
Not only did Rean not reject this, but he welcomed it, because he also wanted to ask Tio to do something.
However, Altina showed resistance, probably because the same sex repels each other - the attribute of sex, who makes two people have three nothings?
Well, actually, it was knowing that Tio was involved in the incident a year and a half ago, and wanting to investigate the "light saber" that triggered Altina's alertness.
Fortunately, Rean and Yuna reconciled, and the atmosphere was maintained fairly well.
Tio’s commission is actually a common one among odd jobs, such as going underground.
However, it is not a common task such as defeating World of Warcraft, but the maintenance of the guidance network with high technical content.
As a city that has introduced the most cutting-edge technology, Crossbell's underground tunnels are not just ordinary sewers, but extremely high-tech infrastructure projects, including the nodes and hubs of the conduction network.
In recent days, there has been a problem with one of the control terminals, causing some errors in the guidance network. Coincidentally, the number of monsters in the underground tunnels has increased rapidly recently, and the Imperial Army has no time to deal with it, so they asked the Governor's Mansion for help.
Faas assigned it to the second branch.
What a profound calculation.
After Li En heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Why don’t the Imperial Army have time?
In addition to the vigilance work of the inspection team, there is also a "birdcage operation" to seal the operations of the support section.
Due to Tio's special identity and powerful intelligence ability, conventional methods cannot be used, so we deliberately let her come into contact with the second branch. This not only puts her under the nose, but also uses the special characteristics of the second branch to make her careless.

Killing two birds with one stone, he is worthy of being the chief of the Iron-Blooded Sons.
Without the experience before coming back and repeated analysis and deduction, Rean would not be able to guess Rufus's thoughts even if he tried his best.
What’s even more frightening is that even if you know about it, there’s nothing you can do about it, unless you plan to break up with the imperial government now - which is tantamount to treason.
With him as his opponent and Rector targeting him, the support department's life is not an ordinary one.
Even so, they can still be optimistic and maintain an upward attitude. This kind of spiritual power is admirable.
However, some things are not effective just by having will, and Rufus's calculations go far beyond that.
The Support Section still has the biggest difficulty to overcome - this difficulty is not in the empire, or even in the Support Section itself, but in the people of Crossbell for whom they are fighting.
What's even more troublesome is that according to Rean's deductions over the past month, once the goal he pursues is achieved, the obstacles blocking the advancement of the Support Section will become stronger, and it may completely cut off Crossbell's hope for autonomy.<
/p>
I wonder if Inspector Lloyd and his second senior brother had foreseen this.
At that time, how should they react?
Rean was very curious.
PS: I’m not being alarmist. In fact, Rufus has already pointed out some things in Shen 3, but he didn’t mention them more. I will analyze them in depth when I write them.
