Amiya asked with a disappointed expression, and analyzed from the tone of the little rabbit, she was really confused and complained about Kelsey's actions this time.

"There are a lot of things that I haven't told you. This is not a special case."

"But it's special to us, Dr. Kelsey! He suddenly expelled Bai Hua from Rhodes Island, and he came back with great difficulty, but he has to hide it... What is the reason?"

Amiya clenched her fists and mustered up the courage to speak loudly to Kelsey.

"Hmm... This is the first time you have communicated with me in a questioning manner, Amiya, you are one step closer to being a qualified leader, but it doesn't seem like the time to celebrate now."

Kelsey glanced at the members of the "Babel Tower" in the conference room. Except for the doctor and Rosemary, who were a little hard to understand the current situation, everyone else, including ACE and SCOUT, also looked at her. A hint of doubt and confusion.

"Give us a reason, Kelsey."

Ascalon crossed his hands in front of his chest, and his eyes under the lavender horns fixed on Kelsey, like a hunter staring at his prey.

"I gave you the reason three years ago. Operator Gleipnir was seriously dereliction of duty, repeatedly disobeyed orders, and failed the psychological assessment. This is a great hidden danger to Rhodes Island. Therefore, we adopted the expulsion decision-this is what we voted to pass. of."

"Vote? When you drove the wolf cubs away, most of them weren't even inside the Rhode Island ship."

Ascalon responded tit for tat.

"So I activated the emergency voting system of the Tower of Babel, and the operator in charge of replacing you agreed to my proposal. Although all the information about Gleipnir has been cleared, the minutes of that meeting have been silenced and remain offline In the archives—you can look for them, Lucille."

"Uh... It's too much trouble to find that kind of thing."

Rhodes Island's chief engineer and number one profiteer rubbed her hair wryly. Even if she wanted to accurately locate a processed 'conference audio', it would take a lot of effort.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lucille knew that Kelsey was not lying, because she herself was an observer in that memory, and looked at Kelsey in an incomparably different way. Participants cast a vote in favor.

"Stop making sophistry here. You used most of the elite operators to collect intelligence and perform missions around Kazdel to expel Bai Hua. I didn't even see Bai Hua being kicked out of the Tower of Babel by you. What's the look on your face!"

Ascalon's anger continued to increase with his words, and correspondingly, Kelsina's cold and calm face returned after the initial panic.

"He didn't have any expression on his face."

"I didn't ask you to answer this—"

"Calm down, Ascalon."

ACE held the shoulder of Ascalon, who was getting more and more angry, to prevent the assassin from making some outrageous actions.

"Interesting, you didn't have such a big reaction to Gleipnir's departure at the time, and even assisted in suppressing W's senseless anger behavior. Three years later, you did not forget that 'apprentice', but instead had a feeling for your choice regret."

Kelsey used an extremely "objective" standpoint to analyze Ascalon's reaction to the "expulsion incident" around three years ago, and came to the conclusion that Ascalon regretted more and more after losing his "apprentice".

"Dr. Kelsey... don't talk about this at this time...!"

Keng!

Ascalon's dagger slashed towards Kelsey at a strange angle, but was immediately knocked away by the summoned M3.

"Doctor Kelsey—Sister Ascalon!"

"Calm down, if you want to fight, go to the practice hall."

Amiya was taken aback by the sudden friction between the two. She was just about to raise her hand to stop them, but Warfarin put the staff in front of them and forcibly separated M3 and Ascalon.

"I don't know the attitude of you 'Babel patriarchs' towards Bai Hua, but from my standpoint—I've been waiting for your explanation, Kelsey."

Warfarin looked at Kelsey. She joined Rhodes Island not too early, and was invited by Kelsey almost before the transformation was completed.

"I didn't spend too much time with that gray wolf, but he left me with an attitude of seeking and studying the knowledge of ore disease, which few people in the medical department can match. I can't understand why you would put Such a young man who treats ore disease so seriously and devoted himself to Rhodes Island is mercilessly expelled?"

Warfarin asked Kelsey calmly, and at the same time, ACE also pulled Ascalon out of the alert range of M3.

"What about the others? I don't like responding to questions one by one. It's one of the most inefficient ways to solve them."

Kelsey looked at the other people in the conference room, and the meaning was very clear: "Whoever has an opinion on his original decision should speak out together."

"I also have an opinion, Dr. Kelsey! Bai Hua spends twice as much time in the training room as I do. He has been pushing his body to the limit all the time, just to be able to It’s fine to take on a mission—I don’t understand why the desperate Bai Hua was expelled from Rhodes Island?”

Huang raised his hand to express that he could not understand Kelsey's behavior either.

"Bai Hua often finds time to come to the logistics maintenance place to learn the knowledge of mechanical system maintenance that he may not need at all. I was very curious at that time, why the guards of His Highness and independent assassins would be interested in these things, and Bai Hua's response It is "If you encounter a problem, I can at least help you"—to be honest, if I have such a subordinate, even if he is late for a month in a row, I will not fire him, let alone if I remember correctly, He's never been absent, never."

The profiteer Ke Luxie couldn't help but want to ask Kelsey why he was so heartless.

Kelsey's expulsion of Baihua can be said to be "like lightning". People like Ascalon and W who went out to perform missions for a week or two and came back suddenly found that all traces of Baihua disappeared. too little.

"Dr. Kelsey...I was very young at the time, and I still can't understand what happened at that time, but...don't you also like Brother Bai Hua? Beside his bedroom, he said something like 'don't worry about Bai Hua's care', but in fact he would help Bai Hua carefully—could it be said that those good memories are... so insignificant to you?"

Amiya looked confused and lost. She kept asking Kelsey, hoping to get an answer she could accept.

"That's all the questions, do you have anything else you want to ask, ACE, scout, and—doctor, it's a pity you lost your memory, otherwise I might be able to hear your opinion about that gray wolf, doctor .”

Kelsey looked at the doctor wearing a mask not far away, because of amnesia, the other party was unable to join the topic from beginning to end.

"Then I will give a unified reply again—what you see is just a one-sided filter after memory screening and whitewashing. I don't deny that Gleipnir has the advantages you mentioned, but this still can't cover up his existence. The dereliction of duty committed during the escort mission, as well as the nearly three-month absence from duty and acting alone, and the extremely unstable mental state. These behaviors have brought great hidden dangers to Rhodes Island, so I chose to send him Removed from Rhode Island."

"Doctor Kelsey, are you...is this really your idea? Because of Brother Baihua's mistake—that can't even be regarded as Brother Baihua's problem, and the so-called 'mental state'...for these reasons, you just do it Have you made your own choice?"

The sight of Amiya's eyes was a little wandering and wavering, as if she couldn't believe that Dr. Kelsey, who had been taking good care of her and had been very close to Bai Hua, would be such a ruthless ruler.

"I actually explained it once, and most of you didn't object. Over time, the loss of a loyal gray wolf will have such a big impact on you, which is beyond my calculations. scope."

"Do you... really understand what you're talking about, Kelsey?"

Ascalon's fingertips trembled a little. She never thought in these years that her "anger" again was because of the leader of the Tower of Babel in front of her (anti-harmony, don't correct me wrong)

"Maybe I'm the only one who knows what I'm doing, and not the one who's being stirred up by some mercenary and gathering here to waste time without knowing anything. If there's nothing else, I'll just take a step ahead .Also I don't suggest that you debunk Gleipnir's disguise. Maybe you don't realize it, but this disguise is two-way. After arriving at the Dragon Gate tomorrow, Gleipnir will leave Rhodes Island again, and I will not prevent you from using this time Contact 'Foxtail Grass'."

After speaking as if reading an experiment report, Kelsey turned around and prepared to leave the meeting room.

"brake!!"

A dagger plunged into the handle from behind Kelsey at a speed that tore through the air.

"Huh... SWEEP wasn't created to do this."

"That's right, isn't the core of SWEEP to wipe out internal hostile forces, Kelsey?"

Kelsey confronts Ascalon once again.

"I don't think I have done anything that can be called 'hostile', Ascalon. Put your fangs away, there will be many uses for Rhodes Island in the future."

"Yeah, you're always right, even letting a wounded, dying wolf out of his clan. You just sit at your desk drinking coffee and waiting for that gray wolf to die somewhere This corner will never appear again, or meet again like this, and then brag about your prophetic powers, right?"

"How do you know I don't have anything—"

—Calm down, Kelsey.What you need is calm.

Kelsey seemed to want to say something, but her voice just got a little higher, and it was cut off in an instant, and Kelsey readjusted it back to the most normal tone of voice.

"Doctor Kelsey...I hope to initiate a vote by the management of Rhodes Island. The content of the vote is to deprive Dr. Kelsey of the right to assign operators."

This time it was Amiya who stood up, and the little black rabbit stood in front of the mentor who raised her to be the "Leader of Rhodes Island". This time, she looked at Kelsey without any hesitation in her eyes, and she no longer flickered to hide .

"—"

Hearing Amiya's words, Kelsey did not respond immediately as usual, but remained uncharacteristically silent.

"Amiya, the supreme executor of Rhodes Island, Warfarin, the acting head of the medical department, Ascalon, the captain of the SWEEP special force, Huang, the representative of the elite operatives, Ke Luxie, the head of the engineering logistics department, Dr. Tactical Commander, Conference Notaries ACE, SCOUT, Red, Rosemary—there are enough of them, and the conference can begin now, Dr. Kelsey, even if you don't intend to attend."

Amiya named a series of names, and these people represented the highest authority of each department in Rhode Island.

As long as more than five high-level and three elite operators notarize, an internal meeting can be held, just like what Kelsey did when he expelled Baihua, but the content of this meeting is to impeach Kelsey.

"Do you all agree to participate in this meeting?"

Kelsey looked at several people around him, including ACE and SCOUT. Except for the doctor who did not respond, everyone else in the conference room expressed affirmation.

"Doctor Kelsey... If you want to bring Brother Baihua back to Rhodes Island, that's the only way... You will definitely object to bringing Brother Baihua back to his identity, right?"

Amiya looked at the light green-haired Filin who had taught her a lot of knowledge in front of her, and had saved herself countless times when she was in crisis due to certain 'rejection reactions'.

You just need to agree to us, Dr. Kelsey, you just need to... promise to let Brother Bai Hua return, that's all.

Even without the ability to read minds, Kelsey could easily perceive the emotions conveyed in Amiya's sad eyes.

——That's the only thing I can't do, Amiya.This is my mission.

"You are right, I will use my authority to expel Gleipnir again and again. If you want to bring that gray wolf back home, this is really the only way."

Kelsey read Amiya's intentions, and personally cut off the possibility she had hoped for.

That's right, as long as I say "Let Bai Hua stay", nothing will continue to happen, and I can live in peace with everyone.

But Kelsey would not allow herself to do so, she had promised.

"...I understand, then, let's start the meeting now, Rosemary, could you please take a record of the meeting."

Amiya closed her eyes, and after a brief silence, she was about to start the meeting on the authority to impeach Kelsey.

—I seem to have messed up again, Your Highness.Every time something related to the human heart, it is always difficult for me to calculate the best choice.

——But even so, there are some things I still have to do, even if I... will be alone again.

Kelsey looked at Amiya, and the latter's eyes intersected with it again, as if Amiya had been waiting for Kelsey.

——You've grown a lot, Amiya.But after all, he hasn't grown up enough to be able to bear the Sarkaz family and bear the sin of "her".

Kelsey withdrew her gaze, and she left the meeting room straight away, as if she had no interest in this meeting about herself.

"About the deprivation of Kelsey's authority in Rhodes Island—"

Amiya stopped talking halfway through.

At that moment when they looked at each other, Amiya finally read Kelsey's inner emotions like never before.

Before this, I don’t know if Kelsey had been trained, or she really didn’t have much mental activity, or Amiya’s ability level is not at home. In short, the result is that Amiya will never perceive Kyle Greek inner activities and thoughts.

However, at that moment just now, Amiya finally peeked into a corner of Kelsey's heart.

That was not a calm, detached, and calm attitude, but...sad, confused, and exhausted beyond sight.

"What's wrong, Amiya?"

Huang's inquiry brought Amiya back to the meeting room.

"About Dr. Kelsey—we may need to discuss something else before the meeting."

Amiya blinked and said to everyone.

------

You have to find Bai Hua.

Kelsey, who left the conference room, shuttled inside the Tower of Babel, and obtained the specific location of Baihua by calling the internal system.

Amiya's meeting will not last too long, only 15 minutes at most.During this period of time, I must complete the last thing I want to do: force Bai Hua to leave Rhodes Island.

Obviously, after doing this, I will face sharper accusations and even abuse from my compatriots in the Tower of Babel, but these are not difficult for Kelsey to accept, and what will happen to me after that, Kelsey I don't even plan to think about it now.

There are two points that no one else can know under any circumstances:

1. Birch is in danger

2. Rhode Island is in jeopardy

The best way to keep others a secret is to "don't tell them," and that's always been Kelsey's course of action.

Because of some things left by Theresia, Bai Hua's identity was actually more dangerous and sensitive than it seemed, and Kelsey had to send him away from Rhodes Island.

Kelsey couldn't be sure when Rhodes Island would sneak in spies, which might lead to the exposure of Bai Hua's situation, and more importantly, Rhodes Island already had a 'devil king'.

But Kelsey can't directly tell Bai Hua that "your existence will put Rhodes Island in danger." If Bai Hua learns that there is some kind of force that can threaten Rhodes Island, he will only choose to investigate desperately. Chasing and biting that force until he died on the path of chasing and killing.

And vice versa for Rhodes Island.

Kelsey must check and balance the relationship between Baihua and Rhodes Island to the extent that "there is no intersection, but each thinks the other is safe".

In the best case, Kelsey hopes that Bai Hua can forget everything about Rhodes Island and live her own life.

No doubts, no panic, no questioning of danger, no approaching each other—

Using Bai Hua's guilt to drive him away was the only way Kelsey could think of.And she turned a blind eye to Amiya's message, in order to make Baihua and Amiya think that each other's situation is safe.Although in terms of the result, in fact, I shouldn't let Amiya send a communication at all.

Starry Sky: 822476505

Kelsey's first miscalculation was in Chernoborg. The strength of the integration movement was too much than originally estimated. It was not an uprising that could be accomplished by mobs alone. Rhode Island must have been caught in a political trap Among them, this also led to Bai Hua's dispatch.

And another miscalculation - he chose to let Bai Hua stay here more.

"Birch..."

Unknowingly, Kelsey has arrived at the location of Bai Hua, which is an extremely inconspicuous corner on the Rhode Island, but at the same time it has been cleaned up very neatly.
