Looking at Evie's slightly red cheeks, Arno's eyes flashed.

Players bring not only benefits, but also disadvantages.

If the player is not controlled, the player's actions will be very irregular.

They will be curious about everything in front of them and full of curiosity about everything around them.

This is an unpredictable risk.

Maybe one of them will have some influence on Evie.

She is indispensable to Arnold.

After that, Arno will push her to a high position. Once Evie fully controls the intelligence department, her power will be immeasurable.

She is absolutely indispensable.

Among all Arno's plans, Evie is the most important chess piece.

As for the players, there is a possibility that the chess piece Evie will slide off the chessboard.

"I will not allow failure."

"I want everything to work according to my plan."

Arno smiled and reached out his hand, gently touching Evie's face.

She didn't resist, she just looked away slightly.

It was precisely because of this action that she did not see the warmth in the depths of Arno's eyes.

"When a huge machine is running, no screw is allowed to fall off."

"Some can be replaced, but some can't."

The smile on the corner of Arno's mouth was emotionless, just a little indifferent because of the sunshine outside the window.

"I need you."

"Evie Gray."

"Absolutely, don't leave me."

Arno unknowingly and without any subjective will put his lips to Evie's ear and whispered softly.

"——At least, until I find a screw that can replace you."

In his mind, Arno added.

Evie didn't answer Arno's words, she just slapped Arno's hand away and turned her face away.

Arnold didn't say anything more.

a long time,

Destination arrived.

Before Arno could remember to speak, Evie opened the car door.

Then, like a gust of wind, her figure disappeared.

"Where shall we go next?"

the driver asked.

Arno closed the car door on Evie's side and sat where she originally sat.

"Hospital."

"St. Eli's Hospital."

"ASAP."

Arno folded his hands on his knees and looked at the driver's face from the slight reflection in the glass.

This person was arranged by Noya, so there should be no problem.

"As soon as possible, right?"

"Okay, please fasten your seat belt."

The driver said something,

Put it into gear, release the clutch, and then step on the accelerator.

This series of movements was done in one go, and Arnold didn't even see his movements clearly before the car started.

"Please hold on tight."

The driver said something and pressed the double flash.

And simultaneously pressed a button next to the double flash.

The moment the button dented, Arnold could feel the car body vibrate twice.

Subconsciously, Arno glanced back.

"Rocket launcher?"

boom--

Arno's question was covered up by a loud noise.

Viewed from below,

A flash of light flashed across the sky like a shooting star.

The sound that broke through the air made Arno's eardrums continue to ring.

This feeling is not pleasant.

But, fast is really fast.

Almost at the same time that Arnold felt it, the car stopped.

"arrive."

The driver said coolly.

Arno twitched the corners of his mouth imperceptibly, opened the door and left.

[Hello, I’m telling you the time now. 】

[The current time is exactly 12 noon, meal time. 】

[Today's scheduled heavy rain has been blocked by the barrier, and the sky is still clear. 】

【May you have a wonderful afternoon. 】

As soon as Arno's feet landed, the time-telling robot on the roadside jumped to his side.

With its chubby body and pure and sweet voice, Arnold has a good impression of this robot.

"Feeling a little cute?"

Arno poked the robot with his finger.

[Ouch~ Please don’t joke. 】

The robot responded, but didn't leave.

Arno knew what it was waiting for, so he took out a gold coin from his arms and stuffed it into the hole in its chest.

[Thank you for your generous donation. 】

After chirping, the robot jumped away to find its next victim.

"A weapon for making money."

"Private enterprise? Maybe they can do something."

Arno looked at the nameplate on the back of the robot, pondered for a moment, and already had a plan in his mind.

But now was obviously not the time to implement it, so Arnold had to hide it in his heart.

I looked up at the sky,

Just as the robot said, the sky was exceptionally clear and golden light shone on the earth.

The hospital was not far in front of Arno, and the light poured over it, giving it a somewhat sacred feeling.

It's twelve o'clock sharp,

There is not much time left for Arno.

He couldn't delay.

"Hey, where are you going?"

Just as Arno was about to go to the hospital, a clear and melodious voice sounded behind him.

This made Arno's shoulders stiffen.

"Do you know that you are causing trouble to others?"

"It's a shame that I was so worried about you, but you ended up wandering on the street."

Arno didn't reply.

"Don't be silent and turn your head."

"Look directly at me!"

Alicia said coquettishly.

"Yes, yes~"

Arno raised his hand helplessly, turned around and looked at Alicia, with a smile on his face.

"Long time no see, Aunt Alicia."

"What did you call me?"

"...Long time no see, Ms. Alicia."

Alicia nodded with satisfaction.

"Tell me what's going on."

Immediately, she asked again.

"That's what you said?"

Arno said blankly.

"Don't act stupid."

"You're using something I developed myself, and you still want to deceive me?"

Alicia threw the receiver to Arno.

"I don't care where you got this thing from."

"It's just that you gave me this thing today and reported the coordinates to me. What is the purpose of it?"

"And, halfway through, you blocked the call function."

Alicia said, looking at Arno suspiciously.

"Is there something you're hiding from Tina and me?"

"You're overthinking this. It's absolutely not the case."

Arno pretended to be innocent.

At the same time, a tiny flash of lightning flashed in his ears, and the transmitter shattered.

Generally speaking, this quiet movement will not be noticed by others.

But Alicia understood immediately.

She looked at the receiver given to Arnold and smiled angrily.

"I just said that I developed this thing myself, and you destroyed it in front of me?"

"Do you think I'm blind?"

Alicia is really angry now.

When Pigeon handed this thing to her, she didn't know how worried she was.

After realizing that Arno had left the intelligence headquarters, Alicia immediately chased after him.

What I saw was such a heartless Ya Nuo.

How can this make people not angry?

"It's easier to deal with when you're angry."

Arno looked at Alicia and said calmly in his heart.

All of his actions are intentional.

The reason is to make Alicia angry.

Generally, when a woman is angry, she will bring trouble to others.

But Alicia is a very smart person, and she will only bring trouble to Arno if she is not angry.

Once angry, people's reason and thinking ability will be relatively weakened.

All Arno wants is to take advantage of this opportunity.
