Steel steam and flame

"The face is not stiff, it seems that there is still a smile." Keshan slowed down the speed of the limo, glanced at Cassia and then said, "Although the time we two stayed together was definitely not very long, But in all this time, I have never seen an expression other than seriousness on your face. It is almost like a wooden board, your face seems to have been carved and fixed, and it will not change."

Cassia smiled and shook her head, exhaling a long breath. Her body's strength recovered slowly, and now her whole body is still limp.

"I also want to be happy, but I don't have a reason to smile all the time. If you laugh for a long time, the facial muscles will be unable to bear it, and a simple smile will also involve most of the muscles in the body. Such a simple action is not as simple as imagined..."

"Stop it, don't say any more." Keshan spoke in time, and Cassia could only close her mouth. There was sudden silence again, with only the sound of speakers from outside coming in from time to time.

"Are we still in Oria now?" After a while, Cassia finally reflected the matter in her head, "Why didn't you leave here? I think there should be enough time, and money is not a problem. .”

"If you don't remind me, I might have almost forgotten this matter." Keshan drove the limousine to another main road at the intersection in front, and continued to drive endlessly, as if there was no destination. Now it's just driving for the sake of driving.

"Of course I want to leave here immediately and go to the urban area on the endless sea. But I haven't done it now. Of course there is a reason, otherwise we wouldn't have to drive a limo on the road so blindly for so long. "Keshan sighed. There was a sign for a roadside fast food restaurant not far ahead, "Need something to eat? For us surgeons, our physical condition is not good, so eating to replenish basic energy is the right thing to do. As for why we didn’t leave by airship or train, let’s talk about it later. I think you can guess the reason.”

The fast food restaurant on the roadside still had a sign saying it was open 24 hours a day, and the colorful signboard lights flashed regularly, which looked very eye-catching next to a row of monotonous and colorless street lights. There are a lot of vehicles nowadays, but most of them are vehicles that are on a hurry. So Cassia and the others were received in the past, and they did not expect a long queue on the roadside.

A lot of food was ordered, and the heat and aroma floated into the surrounding air along with the steaming white mist. The weather is getting colder now. With the proper air circulation system running in the car, Doris and Taranto were sleeping well at the moment and showed no signs of waking up.

Letting the limo drive slowly along the side of the road, Keshan and Kasia picked up the still-warm food and started to eat it. They had kept Doris and Taranto's share.

"Let's continue the topic just now." Keshan said after taking a sip of hot milk tea. The aroma was mixed and filled the entire limo. "Have you thought of the reason?"

"There is only one reason, and that is that something happened over there in the Holy Emperor's Hall. It's not difficult to think of it." He still has the power to eat. Even if his body is weak, Cassia's upper and lower jaw bites are far stronger than before. Ordinary people. Food falls into the stomach bag, and the digestive system is like an awakened steam furnace, starting the most primitive work of the day.

"Yes, in terms of the reason, it can be said that the only one is the Holy Emperor's Hall." Keshan sighed and took another sip of milk tea, as if drinking red wine, sip by sip, "It was at the intersection at that time I haven't seen the light signal you sent out, and I thought something had happened to you. I wanted to follow your words and leave with the saint, but then I thought it would be more comfortable to follow my own will. So I returned to the underground garage, and then I met the two of you. Because I was afraid that they had accomplices and brought you, an unconscious person, with them. After cleaning up briefly, I took you to follow your plan. , hurry up and run to the airport closest to us at that time. Most airships are faster than trains, this is something that cannot be refuted."

Cassia nodded as she listened, and took a sip of hot tea, and her body seemed to become warmer. Even he wasn't cold.

"Of course the process was smooth and stable. After I went to the airport, because I knew someone might be chasing me, I became more alert, so I noticed something was wrong there. The number of guards became a little bit... There are more, of course, not the number of guards standing guard with blunderbuss on the surface, but the guards who are mixed in the crowd and pretend to be ordinary people. There are also personnel from special operations agencies inside. There are many of them, and they also look pretentious. They looked good, but after all, their training was limited, and they were in a hurry just like us. There were many flaws. It was only a matter of time before we noticed them. But there was no other way at the time, and I just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. After parking the car, I tried to buy a boat ticket alone. Of course, it didn't work in the end. Instead, it attracted a bunch of people who had been there to chase me. And surprisingly, they actually Dare to shoot in the main square."

Keshan held hot milk tea in both hands and talked about what happened at that time. She must not be cold, and occasionally she would have a free hand to correct the direction of the limo. She wanted to draw something to represent the scene at that time, but she didn't know how to explain it. Cassia read this meaning from her beautiful face.

She went on to say: "Even the guards holding muskets actually used live ammunition and opened fire directly in the main square in front of the airport. Many innocent limousines were also riddled with bullet holes."

"But it's fine if you have nothing to do. Someone will handle the compensation for those limo cars, so there's no need to worry about these things." Cassia said comfortingly from the back seat of the car.

"Yes, at least I only officially graduated from the Holy Church's training school after passing the surgical grade. I'm not strong, but I'm definitely not bad." Keshan breathed a sigh of relief after saying that. "But the process is not pleasant. There are too many people and they are surrounded by firepower. The surgeon cannot bear it."

"Then the final result?"

"Of course the result was that my identity card was banned overnight by the Holy Emperor's Hall, and all the things bound to the identity card, including the accounts in the Golden Bank, were not frozen for a short period of time, but were canceled overnight. "Keshan felt a little sad in her heart. Maybe at that time, she really believed that her group had been completely abandoned by the Holy Emperor. "It should be that the matter with Sister Roberta has finally come to an end. She is chasing us. The team members were not completely eliminated. They sent a message back to the Holy Emperor's Hall overnight. Since our actions are completely under control, one less person is something that can be known at a glance. "

The plan may be in danger of getting out of control. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, the most important thing now is of course to arrest all parties involved. It is safe to have complete control in our hands.

"Including the Saint's identity card, it should have the same result. These things are too simple for the Holy Emperor's Hall, just a matter of signal reception. So after that, I didn't think about how to leave the Oria area. I'm waiting for you to wake up and make plans."
