Chapter 36
When the platform stopped rising, three speeding cars with the Kronos logo flew in a single formation in the distance.

The first flying car in the row landed on the platform first, and the next two flying cars were suspended in the air and waited.

Walking out of the speeding car is an elegantly dressed woman. She is the catwoman's etiquette teacher and will provide catwoman upper-class social etiquette teaching to customers in need.

"Bastet, get in the car, let's get out of here."

Bastey trotted over, then turned to say goodbye to Aquis and Number 18.

"Thank you for your care during this time, goodbye."

Bastey left, and the second speeder landed.

A man in a white coat and glasses got out of the car carrying a white box.

No. 18 greeted him.

"Where's No. 5's gene extractor?" the man asked.

On the 18th, he handed Klatt's gene extractors to the man. After packing them into a white box, the man turned around and walked onto the flying car.

On the 18th, he waved goodbye to Aiquith, "Aiquith! See you in the second stage."

Aiquith bid farewell to No. 18, and it was his turn. The person who came to pick him up was... an unexpected person with a burn-like scar on his handsome face.

Zola looked at Aquis who was in a daze and shouted: "No. VX-0, I will pick you up from the company instead of Senior Guqiao. You can call me Zola."

Zola?Aiquith felt as if he had heard this name before, because he was not in good health, and many things happened today, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

'Probably nothing important. '

Thinking about this, Aquis followed Zola back to the area of ​​the seventh experimental group of Kronos Biological Company.

He stayed here for more than a week, the treatment of injuries was one reason, and he was mainly subjected to various studies and body samples.

In the end, Aquis' five-day vacation was approved.He approached Guccio with a question.

"When entering the second phase of the Tower of Babel, can I enter with Skywalker 18?"

Gu Qiao put down his work and looked at Aiquith.

"You want to be assigned to enter the second phase of the Tower of Babel with her?"

Aquis is looking forward to
"right"

"It's not impossible, but it depends on whether the third group agrees. I can ask them for you."

At this time, Zola, who was eavesdropping, jumped out immediately and volunteered to say
"Leave this matter to me, I just want to go to the third group to have a look."

Gu Qiao looked into Zola's eyes and seemed to know her real purpose of going to the third experimental group.

"You still can't let go?"

Zola's eyes full of fighting spirit shone with a sharp edge. This is a good opportunity for her. She has always been educated: only excellent people have the meaning of survival, and she is considered flawed. She can't take it.

"I want to see if the people assigned to the first, second, and third groups are really better than me."

There was a trace of sadness on Gu Qiao's indifferent face. It is almost impossible for him to do such a stupid thing, but the reality is always cruel.It might be a good thing for her to recognize the reality earlier.

"You can go if you want."

Zola went to the third experimental group, and Aquis packed up his things and left the company at any time after he got the answer.

After a long time, Zola finally came back.

Aiquith watched her walk into the laboratory in a daze, thinking that his affairs were in vain.

He asked eagerly, "Do they disagree?"

Zola was panting violently, her eyes were red, she seemed to have suffered a lot of mental shock, in order to cheer herself up, she suddenly slapped herself hard, closed her eyes and said
"Because you transferred the genes of Skywalker 5 to them, they have already agreed to your request to express their gratitude. Besides, if you let that idiot enter the second stage of the Tower of Babel alone, he will only be sold Still counting money for others.”

Guccio patted Zola on the shoulder as a sign of reassurance, and he said

"Now that we have received a reply, let's go, Aquis."

Gu Qiao still serves as Aiquith's accompanying surveillance work.

Before returning to the orphanage, Aquis decided to go to the hospital to find Clutter's family.

They came to Vic's largest hospital.

In front of the door of the ward, Aquis hesitated. He still didn't know how to face Clutter's family, and how to convey the news of Clutter's death to them, because he was the culprit who caused all this.

Aquis checked the situation inside through the glass at the door of the ward, and he saw a girl half lying on the hospital bed, her right hand was amputated, her face was pale and haggard.

Kent sat on the edge of the hospital bed with his back to the door, and Louise sat on the other side with a sad face, she was peeling oranges.

Taking a deep breath and making up his mind, Aiquisi opened the door and walked in, while Gu Qiao stayed at the door and did not follow.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the three people inside looked at the door at the same time. They thought it was a nurse coming in, but they didn't expect it to be a teenager they didn't know.

I thought the boy had gone to the wrong door, but looking at his firm steps, it seemed that he was looking for them.

Sakala, who is sick all the year round, almost always lives in the hospital. She has not seen anyone her age for a long time. For this sudden strange boy, she observed Aiquith with great interest.

With unruly hair, Gu Jing Wubo's eyes under the sword eyebrows are covered with a little sadness, and the straight nose is as sharp as a knife. The face is full of stubbornness and determination.Although his age is similar to his own, he has a maturity that does not match his age. This kind of charm is enough to attract people.

Louise didn't know why the boy came here, whether it was for debt collection or for other purposes, she stood up worriedly and asked
"We don't know you, did you go to the wrong ward?"

Aquis took a deep breath, and then exhaled the promise in his chest.

"I'm a friend of Clutter..."

Although the draft had been prepared a long time ago, Aquis still couldn't control his emotions once he actually faced Clutter's family.

He could only take out the money card and hand it to Louise.

"There are 15 billion here, and he asked me to transfer them to you for him."

For ordinary people, this is an astonishing amount, and Louise discovered the meaning behind this astonishing amount. With tears in her eyes, she tremblingly took the money card and held it carefully. chest.

"Thank... thank you..."

Eventually Louise couldn't take it anymore and began to choke up.

"Great! Shakara is saved!"

When Kent heard that his father had brought them a huge sum of money, he shouted happily. From now on, he would no longer be looked down upon by debt collectors. In his eyes, the crying mother just wept with joy.

Only Shakara, who was lying on the hospital bed, felt something was wrong. Looking at her mother and the handsome boy who was a little sad, she guessed something. Although she didn't want to admit it, she felt mixed feelings and uncomfortable.

Aiquith knew that what should come was still coming, and the longer it was delayed, the harder it was for him to say it.

"And then, I killed Clutter, sorry."

He was most afraid of a sudden silence in the ward, although it didn't last long.

"you're lying!!"

The first to erupt was Kent, who charged at Aquis, punching Aquis hard in the face, and punched and punched.

"Dad said he would definitely come back. He said he would not lie to me! You are the one who lied!"

Aquis didn't evade to bear his anger head-on, because only in this way could he feel better in his heart.

Shakara couldn't stand it anymore, she made a hoarse voice and shouted

"Enough! Kent! Don't take your anger out on other people!"

Louise also grabbed Kent, pressed his head and forced him to look at her, and they saw the tears in each other's eyes, and he was not the only one who felt sad.

Louise could only hug Kent tightly to comfort him and calm him down.

Among the three of them, the strongest one was actually Sakala who was lying on the hospital bed. Aquis was not surprised. Anyone who has experienced pain and walked all the way will have a strong will.

In order not to let himself be infected by the sad atmosphere, Aquis diverted his attention and looked at Shakara.

She has a head of hair with a bright shawl, the same black hair color as Clart, even wearing a hospital gown, still can't hide the fact that she is a beautiful girl with outstanding appearance.

Although Shakara's lower body was covered with a quilt, Aquis still noticed one thing, her right thigh was gone.

"What's the matter with your hands and feet?"

"Ah... well, this is because the disease has spread, and we don't have the money to treat it, so we can only cut it off."

Shakara lowered her head slightly, covering her right shoulder with her left hand, with a smile on her mouth, as if she was telling something about someone else.

"The hand was amputated six months ago, and the thigh was amputated three years ago."

She raised her head to face Aquis, trying to keep a big smile on her face.

"It's okay. Now that I have money, I can still install mechanical prostheses after the disease is cured. Vic owns the world's strongest mechanical prosthesis manufacturing company, the head office of the COP Group. After installing the prosthetic body they made , I will become stronger than I am now."

Looking at the strong Shakara who was barely trying to show himself, Aquis found a problem in what he said just now.
