"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The next day, after Bronya took Rin to the place where Aiden and they had agreed to meet, Bronya asked Rin some things and then left.

"I understand, captain, I will contact you when the time comes."

"Remember to take care of yourself."

After Bronya left, Dr. Ayden motioned for Rin to sit across from him, then raised his hand and made a greeting gesture, calling the waiter over. From the moment he saw Ayden just now, Rin's eyes never changed.

Aiden moved away from him, trying to find some characteristics in this mysterious man that could be connected with Dr. Edward.

Looking at his face covered with bandages, what would his face look like under the bandages? This thing is really curious.

"What's wrong? You keep staring at me. Is there something on my face?" Aiden noticed Rin's unusual behavior and said this slowly.

"Ah, no, I'm just curious, Mr. Aiden, do you usually dress like this when you go out?"

"I'm just afraid of scaring you. I was injured in an experimental project and my whole face was disfigured. If possible, please don't let me take it off. There are still people in the store. I'm afraid they will be scared.

run."

Although he also wanted to confirm the face under the bandage, since Aiden said so, he would definitely not do it, and it was also to take care of his face. If it was really what Aiden said, his

The face has been disfigured, and if it were taken off, it might scare other people... I don't know.

"So, cappuccino, one cup without sugar, what about you, Rin?"

"It's the same...no sugar added."

"What's wrong? Do you want one without sugar too?"

Rin waved his hand and said that he didn't mean it that way. He also subconsciously noticed that he might have just spoken out what was in his heart. So, Rin and Aiden explained:

"No, Mr. Aiden, you have very similar hobbies to a friend of mine. He just invited me to drink coffee yesterday, and it was also a cappuccino without sugar."

"Really? That's a coincidence."

He seemed to be able to see Aiden's eyes dodge, but he didn't pay much attention to his expression under the bandage. It was hard to tell whether he was panicking or something else. However, he clearly remembered the color of Dr. Edward's eyes.

, like Aiden, are both green, and the mole under the left corner of his eye is almost the same as Dr. Edward's.

"Then let's talk about things, Rin. This is your previous work permit. I asked the people above to get it for you."

Aiden took out a work badge, which was from the Security Department when Rin used to work in New Arcadia. It also had a mugshot taken when he just graduated from college.

"Thank you." Rin put away the work card. "Mr. Aiden, do you know a man named Edward Belmond?"

When he heard Edward's name, Aiden seemed to pause.

"I knew him before, what's wrong?"

Just when Aiden said these words, Rin suddenly stood up from his seat.

"Excuse me, Doctor Edward, but if you think such poor acting skills can deceive me, then you are wrong."

"Acting? What are you talking about?"

"Please take off the bandage."

Although it is a bit abrupt, from just now to now, Rin has mastered the secret of the executive officer named "Aiden" in front of him. That is habit. A person's natural habits cannot be changed, and, from just now to now, Aiden

It seems that the habits shown by Den are almost the same as when he met Dr. Edward yesterday.

"Oh, I didn't want to see it just now, why have I changed my mind now? In that case, I'll take it apart and let you have a look."

Originally thought that Aiden would refuse, but contrary to Rin's expectations, he readily agreed. When Aiden removed the bandage on his face, Rin suddenly felt very regretful and regretted his decision.

Because Aiden's face was horribly disfigured, to an extent that he could not even imagine. After Aiden removed the bandage along the green pupil under his left eyelid, he could see large burn marks on the lower part of his face.

, and slightly cracked and shriveled lips. When he opened his right eye, Rin could see the faded pupil and the eyelids that were so red that they had shrunk.

"Didn't that scare you a little?"

"Sorry, I lost my temper."

Although his judgment just now was wrong, and the habits of Dr. Edward and the man named "Aiden" were almost unexpectedly similar, he also tried his best to show the difference between Dr. Edward's habits in front of himself.

However, he did not expect that what Aiden said was all true. Not only was his entire face burned, but the skin did not seem to have healed. Although Aiden was not the Dr. Edward he was familiar with, there was definitely a relationship between them.

What connection exists.

"Mom, look at that uncle, he's so scary."

The child on the side who just accidentally saw this scene was also frightened by Aiden. He quickly shrank into the arms of the middle-aged woman next to him. Aiden calmly covered his face again.

Wrapped it up and said "sorry".

"Your face...isn't it okay? Dr. Aiden."

"My face doesn't matter, it's just that you don't trust me very much, so I showed it to you... But don't worry, I really want to cooperate with you and let you do this favor for me."

Rin also quickly apologized to Aiden, saying that she should not have forced him to do such embarrassing things, but Aiden said that he didn't need to care and said.

"It's just a small thing, I just don't want to be so scary."

"I just mentioned the man named Edward. He is a young man who originally worked in biological research and development at our headquarters for a period of time. Although he is young, he can be said to be a genius in the medical department."

So Aiden went on to talk about Dr. Edward and told Rin everything about Edward. Originally, Dr. Edward was hired with a high salary, but for various reasons, he seemed to be in conflict with the company's leadership.

The talks collapsed, but the company refused to let him go, so he deliberately caused an accident, causing many casualties within the company, and then fled directly.

After hearing this, Rin wanted to know the feasibility of this information, so he then asked Aiden:

"In other words, he is still blacklisted by New Arcadia Technology, right?"

"That's right, no other company was willing to hire him, so he went to Tianming to find his former mentor, Dr. Mikaledia, who was known as the 'miracle doctor', and found a way out."

After listening to Aiden's information about Dr. Edward, Rin completely believed him. Since Aiden was sincere, she had to show a cooperative attitude with him in order to make this operation go smoothly.

While they were still chatting, a beautiful, tall, blue-haired woman wearing black casual clothes and velvet Uchimura, wearing a black leather tight midi skirt, was carrying a shoulder bag that looked valuable

, wearing sunglasses, walked into the store from the outside. After seeing the woman, Aiden raised his hand to signal her to come over, and then she took off her sunglasses, noticed Aiden and Rin, and walked over.

Rin recognized this lady at a glance. She was Miss Shizuru Kamisato, the boss who had attached great importance to him in the past three months. She took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of beautiful sapphire pupils, and said to Rin:

"It's been a long time, No. 027c. It might be more appropriate to call you 'Rin' now... According to the above information, you are not missing. It seems to be true."

Rin hadn't seen Ms. Jingliu for several months, so he was a little excited. He quickly stood up and lowered his head slightly, not knowing what to say to Jingliu. Doctor Ayden had something to say to Jingliu.

After expressing his gratitude, he also said to her:

"Now that I see your subordinates coming back, I'm also very happy, but I advise you not to reuse that guy named Kaju. That guy is the leader of the outlaw army."

"I will keep your suggestions in mind, 'doc'. However, now that the Shenzhou branch has lost most of its security, temporarily cooperating with Kaju can be regarded as a temporary measure."

After persuading Jingliu not to reuse Kaju, Aiden stopped talking and planned to let Jingliu and Rin reminisce about the past.

"Destiny actually used the power of the International Court of Justice... So, Rin, did you say anything? It should be okay now, right?"

"No, after all, I'm just a new employee, so I don't know anything."

Jingliu seemed to be secretly relieved. After all, he was also one of the high-level officials of New Arcadia. If he was really affected by this incident, it would be difficult to guarantee his job. After all, he was dismissed some time ago.

If his brother Kamisato Tomohito hadn't vouched for him and used part of Kamisato Heavy Industries' interests to hold him accountable for his lapses in responsibility, the others would have been dismissed a long time ago.

"By the way, Miss Jingliu, how do we go back?"

"Take my car."

Jingliu took out the key to her luxury car. It was an expensive car, the "Moon Sakura" series concept car of Kuwada, a brand owned by Kamisato Heavy Industries, and the top-of-the-line "Frost Dye Moyue"

One of the series. She is the eldest lady of the Kamisato family, and the car she rides in is also a luxury car. This is a matter of course.

After meeting, Aiden said that he would not go there, so he asked Jingliu to take Rin back. Sitting in the car, Jingliu seemed to be in a good mood. She played the most popular Jidong playlist single "

"Xueyuehua", driving the car with a relaxed expression.

Rin, who was in the passenger seat, was not in any mood. He recalled crossing the desert highway towards the New Arcadia China Branch and seeing the long stretches of yellow sand along the way. He would recall the past from time to time.

Things come up.

Although Jingliu valued his subordinates and companions in the kind of work that worked hard for New Arcadia, he was very unhappy with New Arcadia Technology's approach of treating the lower class people as careless. After all, it was different from destiny.

Everyone regards him as a family member, and everyone fights for a beautiful ideal together, looking harmonious and harmonious.

In New Arcadia, what you can feel is the indifference of human nature and the helplessness of the people at the bottom to hug together for warmth.

"I'm sorry. If I had been stronger at that time, I would have protected you and let you newcomers go to the battlefield and die for no reason. This is not what a qualified leader should do."

"It's nothing, Miss Jingliu, you have worked very hard."

"When you come back and resume your duties this time, I will definitely train you well so that you can become the team leader as soon as possible. This will make me feel more at ease."

"I will definitely not let down Miss Jingliu's expectations."

In the car, Rin looked at Jingliu, as if he had completely forgotten the mission assigned to him by Bronya and the others, as if he had never encountered destiny, as if what happened that day had never happened.

He also thought about making money in New Arcadia and sending money to his family every month. If he was lucky enough to survive until he reached retirement age, he would go back to his hometown to buy a field that had not been contaminated by Honkai and start

Farm the land, find a wife who loves him, get married and have children. After his mother spends her old age, he will let his children study hard again. If he can make it in New Arcadia,

As a junior leader, after he is admitted to college, he will be asked to take over his class in New Arcadia.

But now, the appearance of destiny has changed his life plan.
