Chapter Eleven Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person
Miriam was actually not panicked.
Before she was caught, the deer-headed statue told her...if she was caught in the Tianen Group, there was no need to panic. Someone would eventually be able to get her out.
So she just bit it and killed it. She was just testing the newly acquired drone.
This excuse actually makes sense. Because she really just got the drone. To be precise, she just got it three days ago.
After pestering my father for a long time, I finally got a drone through legal and reasonable means.
Because her father was a network security engineer for Tianen Group, he directly gave Miriam his retired "Glider Spider" drone.
In his opinion, this is actually to save money. After all, his daughter just plays with it to practice jumping skills.
But in fact, Mirien's father had no idea that his daughter had secretly mastered the "jumping" of various drones before she went to college. The machine she used to practice at that time included her father's machine.
It's just that Miriam is very good at pretending to be good, so her father doesn't know about it at all.
She expected at that time that she might be caught... Even if she was not caught at the first time or caught on surveillance, it was not impossible for her to overturn.
So from that moment on, Mirien was prepared to create a reasonable "motive" for herself; she did not dare to use the more advanced drones handed over to her by the Tower of Babel, whose origins she could not explain.
I just got the machine, so I can’t bear to take it out and fly it in the city. Is it reasonable?
As long as there is a suitable and reasonable motive, once you are caught, you can persist until you are fished out. Even the difficulty of being fished out will be greatly reduced.
About four or five hours have passed since she was caught in the morning.
The last round of interrogation had just ended. She was closing her eyes to rest, replenishing her energy, and starting to sort out her thoughts in her mind to avoid self-contradiction in the pile of stories she had just made up... when she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.
"Miss Miriam?"
The tall male executive with black dog ears asked politely: "Are you sleepy?"
"We have investigated clearly. It was a misunderstanding... I am very sorry for wasting your time. You can leave now."
"Have you finally figured it out..."
Miriam breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and said with some complaint: "I haven't had breakfast yet, I'm so hungry..."
Normally, if they were really innocent civilians who were caught, it wouldn't be true that there would be no complaints at all at this time.
She maintained her disguised identity very carefully.
"Mr. Ultramarine is waiting for you outside."
The executive with a dark background said somewhat cautiously: "We didn't use violent interrogation, right?"
"Ah, yes. I know."
Miriam nodded suddenly.
It is true that she did not undergo violent interrogation... because she had just been arrested and had not had a meal, and the patience of the execution department has not been worn out. She is still in the stage of thorough questioning.
but……
"Mr. Ultramarine?"
She was a little surprised from the bottom of her heart, followed by a hint of joy.
Could it be that the person the leader said was placed in the Tianen Group was the "hero" Ultramarine?
He is also Miriam’s idol!
"yes."
The black-backed guy answered unconsciously: "Mr. Ultramarine just got off work, and he was called back by Director Dodgson halfway through..."
Director Dodgson?
Miriam's pointed horse ears twitched when she heard a new name.
Director?...
She rolled her eyes without any trace.
How to put it, it's unlikely. At least that's what she thinks.
After that, she saw "Ultraline" not far from the door. He was gathering with other executives, chatting and laughing. There was no doubt that Ultramarine was the center of the conversation, and he did not shy away from the fact that he came here to pick her up and leave.
It can be said to be frank.
Just as you imagined!
Mr. Ultramarine is even more handsome than the reporter took the photo!
Miriam's eyes became brighter.
"Oh, I should go."
"Ultramarine" watched Miriam being brought out and casually joked to the executives around her: "Now I can finally get off work."
"Won't you stay for a meal?"
"No, I have a treat today."
Ultramarine smiled and walked to Miriam: "Let's go, Miss?"
"...I am not a young lady."
Miriam whispered.
But she was quite happy to be called such by her idol.
After leaving the executive department building, he followed Ultramarine and boarded the Skytrain in Tianen Park.
She was a little nervous when she was next to Ultramarine.
Because Miriam actually didn't know whether "Ultramarine" was from the Tower of Babel, she didn't dare to ask anything.
However, Ultramarine has been recognized by people immediately.
Even Miriam, who was standing next to him, was cast in surprise, envy, and jealousy.
Miriam was a little nervous and a little proud as she grabbed Ultramarine's sleeve. She didn't dare to let go, but she was also embarrassed to touch Ultramarine's body.
That's her idol!
"Get off the bus right here."
Before the Skytrain arrived at the door, Ultramarine suddenly said something to her and got off the train at a certain station.
Mirien hadn't reacted yet, but she had subconsciously left with Ultramarine.
"Mr. Ultramarine...is there anything you want to tell me?"
She asked in a low voice, testing Ultramarine's identity.
Ultramarine shook her head.
"It's not convenient to talk here."
He replied briefly.
The implication of these words made Miriam feel a little excited and uneasy...but on the other hand, she was also inexplicably disappointed.
Is this "pure hero" she admires just a persona...
"Can you turn off the surveillance in that store?"
Ultramarine suddenly stopped and asked Mirien in a low voice.
Miriam looked up and her cheeks suddenly turned red.
It is an unmanned store open 24 hours a day.
What's special is that the things it sells can only be used by adults...
"It's very simple..."
Mirien whispered, lifting up the sleeve of her left arm to reveal the "Aoi Lily" prosthetic leg of the same style as Ultramarine.
But unlike Ultramarine, twelve of the sixteen interfaces above have been plugged into different chips. They are flashing lights of different colors at different frequencies.
"Don't you need a saucer?"
"No need."
When talking about her professional content, Miriam's tone became more confident: "I hijacked the computers of some merchants and enterprises with low computing power consumption, which can be used as auxiliary computing units."
As she spoke, she was already connected to the shared network in the area.
Through eye positioning, he determined the physical address of the store and then jumped into the store camera through the surrounding cameras. He immediately made a still picture and posted a new one with the same style on the originally monitored timer position. The timer seamlessly fills the picture into the camera.
In this case, she just stopped the camera.
It only took about five or six seconds in total.
“Really good.”
Ultramarine praised and entered the store first.
Being praised by her idol, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, then suppressed her excitement and pride, and followed Ultramarine step by step.
"Please lock the door."
Ultramarine's voice floated from inside the store.
Although Mirien vaguely noticed something was wrong.
But in her heart, she was even more looking forward to what would happen next.
"Yes, Mr. Ultramarine!"
Her voice was slightly trembling, both from fear and excitement.
But just as she turned around and closed the door.
I could only hear the metallic sound of "squeaking" coming from my ears.
Everything in front of me disappeared.
The space she was in suddenly turned into a square dark blue hexahedron.
Then the space suddenly turned into a terrifying crimson. The prosthesis on her left arm, as well as the many electronic devices implanted in her legs and the elbow of her right arm, all disappeared.
Only the white limbs, as slender and tender as bones, were pulled out from her left arm and occupied the position that was originally her left arm.
"Are you so sure...that I am really 'ultramarine'?"
A strange and gentle voice came from behind her: "Didn't that little brother tell you that Ultramarine has gone home? Do you think he will make a special trip back?"
Frightened, Miriam suddenly turned around with fear and horror.
He saw a smiling young man with blue hair and ponytail standing opposite him.
His arms are intact, and his left arm is no longer the "Aoi Lily" prosthesis she is familiar with.
"Don't be afraid."
The young man's gentle voice sounded low.
He stretched out his right index finger and touched Mirien's forehead at an extremely slow speed.
Then the fingers moved slowly, gradually downward along the hairline, and slowly stopped at the neck.
Mirien didn't dare to move, and swallowed carefully.
The increasingly intense fear made her tremble... Although the other person's spiritual relative should be a bird, she felt like she was being targeted by a predator.
"Don't be afraid...I'm not a good person."
The young man smiled, and his fingers began to move slowly laterally again, finally stopping in the middle of Miriam's throat.
A fatal position that could penetrate her delicate neck with just a little force.
"I'm the barber."
He murmured softly, like a whisper: "First meeting, Z."
