Arknights, the new kid Kevin no longer has to save the world

What she didn't know was that such a belief was the "first step" she should take to grow into a qualified leader.

With this belief, Tallulah looked at the things on the ground rather uneasily. The price of those gold bars was quite stable. She just hoped that these antique calligraphy and paintings could be valued at a good price.

At least enough supplies were obtained for them to move.

"Dr. Kelsey."

Amiya looked at the old lynx and shouted. The other party nodded and stepped forward.

I'm afraid there's no one here who has seen more than her.

Well, as an appraiser, it couldn't be more suitable.

She put on cotton gloves, leaned down, and identified each item one by one.

"Painted gold-plated plate with floral patterns, produced between 750 and 780, in perfect condition..."

"Icon painting "Trinity", original work by Andrei Rublev..."

She was very professional, and her serious look almost made people on the integration movement hold their breath. At least her professionalism seemed unquestionable.

There were a lot of things, and it took Kelsey nearly three and ten minutes. This was based on her inhuman identification speed.

Fortunately, except for two fakes, the rest of the antiques are of great value and are all genuine.

"In this land, objects passed down from ancient times often represent profound value and origin. However, only a few people know them, and it is difficult to realize their value."

Kelsey took off her cotton gloves, stood up slowly, and made her final judgment on these large boxes of items.

"Ahahaha...what does this lady mean?"

Lermontov looked confused, but still asked with a dry smile.

"What Dr. Kelsey means is that these things are of high value, but if you rush to find a buyer, you may lose some money."

Amiya smiled and translated for everyone in the integration movement. Indeed, if you didn't often deal with Dr. Kelsey, her way of speaking would be a bit... disturbing.

"Oh, it's okay to lose part of it, as long as it's really valuable."

Tallulah breathed a sigh of relief. At least her hard work in moving Barra back was not in vain.

"As a fee for using channels and processing, we in Rhode Island will cut off a part of it as a share, and we will share it [-]-[-], how about it?"

The doctor held up his hands and proposed a sharing method that was comparable to Zhou Papi.

"Four of us?!"

"..."

The doctor was silent. This was the first time she had seen someone put herself in such a low position.

Is it possible that I mean to integrate Movement VI?

"This is too little! [-]-[-] split! This is the limit we can accept."

Tallulah looked embarrassed, divided into [-] and [-]?What about sending beggars away? !What is the difference between this and robbery?

Although these things were originally stolen, they can't be exploited like this?

She stretched out her hand and proposed a split method in which everyone took one step back.

"make a deal."

The doctor held the hand decisively, and in Tallulah's confused eyes, the deal was concluded.

Where can I find such a fool?There is no way to take the initiative to give profits in a transaction. Hey, no, she saw it today.

"...Then that's it, we will deliver some of the supplies in advance, and subsequent supplies will be delivered one after another according to the processing progress of the antiques. As for the books you need, they will be sorted and copied tomorrow..."

Until after signing the contract and a series of processes, and everyone walked out of the conference room, she still seemed to be in a trance.

"Lemon, did I sell it too cheap?"

"...Obvious fact, leader."

The armaments officer hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth. The huge gap between the attitudes of everyone in Rhode Island made it almost clear that their integration movement was completely taken advantage of.

But there is no way, who makes them lack the channels to "sell stolen goods"?

"You've done your best."

The Patriot patted Tallulah on the shoulder and said in a deep voice.

At least in her, he once again saw the "Fighter" Tallulah... No, she was a little more mature than the "Fighter" period. Although she was a bit naive, she undoubtedly had the initial qualities to become a real leader. quality.

That's being down to earth.

"Miss Shuangxing, have you really decided?"

Zilan held two cups of tea and placed one of them in front of Shuangxing. Then she also sat on the sofa and once again confirmed with the Carters girl in front of her.

"Yes, both father and Tallulah support my decision."

Perhaps due to Hongxue's influence, Shuangxing looked very demure during non-combat time.

As for why she came to the Rhode Island Personnel Department?

Of course, she brought her own team of snow monsters to join Rhode Island. One of the reasons was that she wanted to see what the place where the teacher had been was like.

Another reason is that at least during the operation to rescue the doctor in Rhode Island, she did see the differences between the Rhode Island operators and the integration movement.

"Then, please sign this agreement. You will hold the status of an observer representing the 'Integration Movement' in Rhode Island. In this process, you and your team will need to provide strategic support for part of our operations in Rhode Island. .”

"Don't worry, we will pay you accordingly."

Zilan placed the contract document that had been printed long ago in front of Shuangxing.

At least after the incident in Qicheng, Rhode Island has a lot of funds, so it can still be done by hiring a few more operators.

"Then, you are welcome to join, Frost Star Operator."

The two shook hands, and Rhode Island officially welcomed a new member, a living one.

On the other side, in the doctor's office, a discussion was also taking place.

The two sat opposite each other.

"Kevin, if you come back this time, are you still leaving?"

"Doctor, you should know the answer to this question."

"..."

Chapter 1 As long as I want, then I can

The two sat opposite each other. The doctor did not wear the black mask, but let his little face, which had regained some color in the past few days, be exposed to the air, with his short and medium white hair hanging behind his head.

She sighed leisurely, feeling sad.

He picked up the convenience food bag on the side and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he picked up the hot water bottle that had just been boiled nearby and drank a few sips. He looked as if the hot water in the hot water bottle was not boiling water at [-] or [-] degrees, but boiling water at [-] or [-] degrees Celsius. A bottle of ice drink to relieve sleepiness and fatigue.

snoring—

"Is this heating?"

Kevin saw this bizarre scene and didn't know whether he should stop it.

But judging from her face, she must be fine. She can heat instant food in her mouth. It seems that she is not as helpless as her appearance suggests.

The doctor, who turned his grief and anger into appetite, silently swallowed the food in his mouth, and then stared blankly at the ruthless man in front of him. His faint gaze even made Kevin feel a little uncomfortable.

"Doctor, don't worry. Although I don't know your ultimate goal in Rhode Island, I have seen in you a will similar to [Kevin]. Even though it is small, you must not fail."

"In fact, both Kelsey and Amiya can see that I am not a member of this ship, and this is by no means a resting place large enough for me."

After coming to this world, Kevin, who gradually understood the definition of human beings, was no longer the confused guy.

He knew what he needed. This time he accepted Kelsey's invitation to "rescue the doctor" not out of some pedantic idea of ​​"responsibility," nor because of the agreement at the bottom of the box from the Rhode Island Personnel Department.

For a "selfish" person, these things have almost zero binding force.

And what made Kevin come here was just because he wanted to save him. He didn't want this friend with whom he had a very happy relationship to die, that's all.

"If I want to, then I can."

If he didn't even have this kind of confidence, he wouldn't be Kevin.

Of course, as one of the ties, the full support and following of a certain cute Luper may also be his help?

Not everyone has the courage to break their peaceful life.

"I'll leave this to you. It takes too long to deliver the letter. If you encounter any trouble that can't be solved, at least it can solve your urgent need."

Kevin unscrewed a button on his clothes, and as he burned it on his palm, a sword-like pattern gradually appeared on it, which looked strange for a moment.

He left a trace of will inside, which is very similar to the "stigma" behind Frost Star, but it does not have that kind of power and can only be used as a means of guarantee.

"Ah."

After a long moment, the doctor nodded in agreement. The strange thing was that as soon as the button came into her hand, it turned into something like a small badge.

She pinned it on her coat, and her appearance was not much different from before.

------

On the bridge, Tallulah and Lermontov were leading a group of guerrillas waiting for copies of books from Rhode Island. Even these rough guys would understand vaguely after seeing their leader's expression. .

These books, which cannot be worn or eaten, are important in integrating movement.

"Lemmon, our next habitat..."

Of course, Tallulah was not idle, but discussed with everyone the next direction of the integration movement.

They had indeed captured Chernobog. No matter who was responsible for the subsequent incident of driving from the city to Longmen, they had to bear the blame firmly.

Whether it is a show or a real arrest, it is foreseeable that the integration movement will not be easy for a long time to come.

With these supplies, at least they no longer need to run across the snowy fields like before. The most important thing is how to achieve sustainable production and avoid being hunted by Ursus military police.

"...Ms. Amiya asked the Engineering Department of Rhode Island to sell us a batch of grain seeds with cold resistance, which was really helpful."

"I'll thank her later."

tread!

Just as Tallulah was saying something, a man in a cloak came up behind her, and she subconsciously turned aside to make way for him.

But she found that the man stopped right in front of her.

"Tallulah, you are indeed here."

She lifted her hood, revealing her heroic face.

Surprisingly, it was Chen Huijie who came here today on special leave from the Guards Bureau. After learning that Tallulah was suspected of landing on Rhode Island,

She rushed over as quickly as possible.

"Hui Jie? Why are you here?"

Tallulah took a step back subconsciously. To be honest, she didn't know how to face her half-sister.

What's more, it was still under the circumstances that the integration movement had just invaded Chicheng and gained a bad reputation.

"It seems that meeting me has affected your mood today."

Chen held Chi Xiao on his waist.

The "tyrant" of the integration movement, the "Drake" who represents destruction...

The things written in the intelligence may not be absolutely true, but they must be based on traceable circumstances.

Perhaps Chen still didn't want to believe it in her heart, but she knew that Tallulah was no longer the naive girl abducted by Cosiche.

"It seems that you know what I did to make you so unclose to me. You don't even want to call me sister."

Seeing Chen's slightly wary look, Tallulah smiled bitterly. No matter how Koxiche tried to trick her, those blood debts that could not be washed away were ultimately stained on her hands, and she would not deny it.

"...Tallulah, follow me back to Longmen."

Chen Huijie was silent for a long time before uttering these words herself.

Lermontov and others on the side saw that the atmosphere was not right, and they quickly winked at each other, and everyone dispersed with a tacit understanding, leaving room for the two sisters to talk.

"Hui Jie, you know this is impossible. Wei Yanwu will not allow it, and Ursus will not allow it. Even I will not allow myself to hide back in that city."

What's more, her comrades are still waiting for her as a leader, and "Tallulah" still has a lot to do.
