Berlin Region · Leipzig - Lindenstrasse.

"Oh choking~woo choking~woo choking~"

The siren of the ambulance sounded like a sob. At this time, many first responders in white robes pulled up the lying frame and loaded the seriously injured victims into the ambulance. If the situation was critical, they could only be treated on the spot.

first aid.

The old Hero Nemus was looking sadly at the ruins of Linden Street. At this time, a young man with blond hair and golden eyes took off his top hat and put it on his chest. He looked solemn.

came to Professor Nimus.

"I'm sorry, it seems that my action was a step too late after all."

Professor Nimus shook his head.

"You completed your mission very well. If you hadn't discovered the minefield in advance, things would have become more troublesome later on."

Professor Nemus's weathered face was now filled with deep fatigue.

"Abraham, can you answer a question for me?"

"You said it." The blond young man nodded.

"Did Heaven give you an order?"

"···No."

"As expected..."

Professor Nimus' figure became more and more stooped.

"Did [Section 13] say anything to you?"

"They need me to sign the Information Blocking Ordinance."

"...Yeah. You have completed the graduation task this time, and I still have something to deal with."

Professor Nimus turned and walked out of the street on Bodhi Tree Street, while Xia Xiu looked at her back and remained silent. After Professor Nimus completely left his sight, he slowly walked into the dilapidated building.

within the neighborhood.

At this time, most of the wounded and dead had been transported out, and the rioting structures had been cleared away. The splattered blood on the ground and the sizzling remains of the structures all told what happened here.

What kind of tragedy happened.

"Hello, are you Mr. Abraham?" A young member of Section 13 stopped Xia Xiu.

"I am."

"Please sign the "Information Blocking Regulations" with us. At the same time, in view of your help to [13th Section] this time, our company will prepare a generous thank you gift for you later." The young clerk said politely.

Xia Xiu said.

"Where's Wendel?" Xia Xiu asked the young clerk with narrowed golden eyes.

"Captain Wendell is dealing with some emergencies."

"Really..." The blond young man showed a mocking smile on his lips.

"Take me to sign the ordinance."

"OK."

Section 13. Center for Foreign Affairs.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have used it. I let you down." [Cornflower·002] was lying flat in front of a special instrument. She took out the golden [Memu Cleanser] from the storage of her right prosthetic limb.

].

Wendell took the cleaning agent from 002's hand and fell silent.

For 002 contaminated with unidentified mercury, [Thirteenth Section] will not carry out complicated procedures to eliminate it.

Destroy her and directly use the new [Cornflower] for the previous position. This is the most cost-effective way.

"I would like to ask, is my "self-choice" only caused by the Meme pollution of [Red Branch]?"

At this time, the instrument had begun to be destroyed during the intracranial procedure, and 002 asked expectantly.

"Neither the [Asimov's underlying laws] nor the think tank link in your mind is locked."

"I'm sorry to tell you the cruel truth. Most of any structures that may violate [Thirteen Subjects] or generate their own logic will be directly obliterated."

Wendell continued with a heavy tone:

"But structures infected by the Mimo virus can escape the restriction of erasure. The Mimo virus is a terrifying existence that can even distort the rules of the world. Some structures infected by the Mimo virus can indeed circumvent the rules on the premise of generating self-will.

The erasure of genealogy.”

"However, you have not developed self-will, because your underlying laws have not even shown signs of being locked..."

Wendell looked at the expectant 002 and said slowly:

"You are simply contaminated by the Meme virus."

"Yeah..."

The corners of 002's eyes began to feel heavy.

"I thought it was my own free will. Although it made me do something wrong, it was still my own decision..."

"It turns out it's not..."

After the 002 program was destroyed, she closed her eyes completely.

Other [Cornflower] constructs appeared. They zipped up the body bag without expression, held the bag with both hands, lifted it up, and took their companions to the incinerator.

"Captain Wendell, you have been given new instructions from above. They need you to attend a meeting." A clerk walked to Wendell from the distant passage and reported.

"What's the situation with the Hohenzollern family?"

"It said they would take care of it."

"Where is that angel from heaven?"

"He left [Section 13] after signing the regulations."

Wendell was silent for a moment, and then he continued to ask:

"Did he receive payment?"

"No."

"..., I understand, take me to the conference room."

"yes."

This was the last time Xia Xiu saw Bryce, he was about to die.

In the white room full of the smell of disinfectant alcohol, the young man who should have been carefree was lying on the hospital bed full of lifelessness. There was a shocking hole in his right eye, and the remaining left eye was

It's lifeless.

"Forgive me for being late."

"Brother, I'm about to die." Bryce just said this to Xia Xiu in a hollow tone.

The blond young man stood beside him silently.

All the organs in Bryce's body had been distorted by the massive EVE particle radiation field. If it had been an hour earlier, Xia Xiu would have been sure to use the [Flesh Shaping Technique] to hang him alive, but he really arrived too late.

"Those...[cornflowers] are really out of control?" Bryce asked the blond young man in a hoarse voice.

The blond young man recalled the Meme virus he felt from the killed structures, and then replied to Bryce:

"Technically speaking, yes."

When such a big thing happens, the structures killed by [Section 13] will inevitably be retained, otherwise they will not be able to face the pressure of public opinion from the outside world.

"Yeah..." Bryce heard the voice of Xia Xiu's words.

"I should listen to you and leave the Berlin area as soon as possible..." A smile uglier than crying appeared on Bryce's lips.

"But, this is my home, where can I go?"

"Many times I wonder, what would the world be like without the curtain?"

"In terms of benefits alone, if everyone accepts exceptions, various technologies under normal conditions will be several times better than they are now."

"It's strange, where does the concept of 'abnormality' come from?"

"If there were no normality maintenance organizations like Heavenly Kingdom and [Thirteenth Section], all human beings might be exposed to abnormalities sooner or later, and then they would become accustomed to it like we do now, and learn how to deal with it... It would be better to let the world know if we keep it hidden.

Abnormalities come easily."

"Clearing anomalies and containing anomalies doesn't mean that the world can't do it once they know about it. This even saves the manpower and material resources that need to be deceived."
