Keep It Up, Lord Green Hat! / Who Could Handle a 900-Pound Perk?
"What does General Duca mean?"
Ada smiled slightly, her tone playful.
"If that Judgment Angel comes to you, please introduce us. We are interested in deepening our cooperation with the SCP Foundation."
After Ajie finished speaking, he handed over a file containing the details of the Dongying incident, then nodded and turned to leave.
Seeing that the other party was quite sensible and hadn't crossed her line, Ada breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk back into the hall.
To be honest, the security here is quite good, unlike in America, where you have to carry a gun to sleep at night to feel safe. It's a place suitable for health and wellness, and if there's no real need, she wouldn't bother continuing to wander.
Thankfully, we don't have to move...
Chapter 561, Section 590: Keep it up, Lord Green!
In the lobby, after finishing the dungeon, Kallen bids farewell to her game friend "HOMU Detective." The girl casually tosses down the game console and curls up on the sofa for a nap.
The bouncy electronic pet, Haro, flew up to her head. A faint, wisp of purplish-red light seeped into Kallen's little head.
In the hazy distance, Kallen, her body stained with blood, drifted downstream in the river to an ancient village in Shinano, Japan, where she was rescued by a shrine maiden with long, cherry-blossom hair.
She was a very kind and gentle girl. She not only took good care of her, but also provided a series of thoughtful services, including feeding her medicine and giving her a body massage.
Unfortunately, that face was shrouded in a thin veil of memory, making it difficult to see clearly. Only the iconic fox ears from later years left a deep impression on her.
"Ada... don't you think the house is too empty?"
Kallen, slowly waking up, slipped on her rabbit-head slippers and cautiously peered out from behind the door, hoping to catch a glimpse of her mother, who was working while biting her pen.
"So what?"
"I want to have a pet! How about a fox?"
Kallen poured out her innermost feelings, her expression full of anticipation.
"Are you serious? Have you thought of a name yet?"
"Cherry!"
"Okay, whatever you like, as long as you can take good care of it..."
Ada was quite open-minded. She invited her daughter into the studio, opened her laptop, and the mother and daughter argued in front of the screen for more than half an hour before finally choosing a white Arctic fox online.
"Okay, white it is. That way, it'll be easier to dye it cherry red when I get home!" Kallen made up her mind and beamed with joy.
Meanwhile, in Shinano, Japan, lies Yaegashi Village, buried in history.
On the mountain, a huge Banyan Tree, adorned with Divine Talisman and worshipped as Land God, trembled slightly, cracking into fine lines. Then, a web-like Corrosive Power spread across the front of the trunk, melting a hole large enough for one person to pass through.
Immediately, a fox-eared girl dressed as a shrine maiden, wielding Crimson Katana, opened her Green Spirit Eyes slightly, casually brushed away the fallen leaves from her cherry-colored hair, and looked towards Shenzhou as if sensing something, murmuring to herself.
"Kallen, is that you calling me?"
The girl's thoughts turned back, a hint of vicissitude and joy showing in her eyes, but as soon as she stepped out of the tree hole, her stockings and ordinary wooden clogs suddenly loosened and crumbled, turning into dust.
I slept for too long, and waited for too long...
This time, under no circumstances can we allow this tragedy to repeat itself...
Wait for me, Kallen...
The Fox-eared Miko firmly touched her chest, then walked barefoot through the lush green mountains like an elf descended to earth.
Meanwhile, at the Siberia Permafrost Base, the [Wild Serpent]'s lair.
Doctor Final shuddered as he watched the YoRHa Unit in the hall, dismembering his Mecha Soldier like vegetables.
When he saw the handsome white-haired man who followed him in and his daughter Jill Hera, who had defected from the organization, walking hand in hand and behaving intimately, he was instantly enraged.
"I knew you ungrateful wretches would turn around and bite me one day!"
"I really regret not strangling you all sooner!"
Hearing her adoptive father's heartless words, Jill Hera her lips, but ultimately lowered her head with a somber expression.
Kevin looked at Doctor Final, who was in a state of madness and showing signs of paranoia, and shook his head slightly with a sense of boredom. He then squeezed Jill Hera's cold hand to comfort her.
"My mother is still alive, but her memory is severely damaged and she needs time to recover..."
"If she remembers the past and wants to see you, I absolutely won't stop her, but until then, don't bother us..."
"The Wilderness is not a convenient place to recuperate; the place is cold, and so are the people there. You'd better take care of yourself..."
Jill Hera rallied her spirits, coldly uttered her words, grabbed Kevin, turned and left, leaving only a resolute silhouette for Doctor Final, severing the last ties between father and daughter.
After the YoRHa Unit, who had wiped out the Serpent Defense Robots, retreated like a tide, Doctor Final, looking utterly exhausted, slumped into a chair, his right hand gripping the back of the chair, making a creaking sound.
"I did nothing wrong! I did before! And I still do now!"
"I can't be wrong!"
His inner pride and extreme thinking made the stubborn and even crazy Doctor Final firmly believe in himself.
As long as I achieve something, both my daughter and wife will obediently return to my side!
Inside the snowmobile, Jill Hera skillfully pulled a box of her secret stash of candies from Kevin's pocket, popping each one into her mouth to chew, chuckling softly.
"Looks like I'll be relying on you from now on. How about it?"
Kevin smiled slightly and tilted his head forward.
"How could that be? Be prepared to be used by me until the very end..."
Jill Hera tickled Kevin's chin as if teasing a cat or dog, and whispered in his ear.
"How... do you want to use me, your older sister? The double bed in the B-17 military fortress... is huge... how about we try it tonight?"
"Cough cough..."
Teasing by this thorny rose, Kevin coughed violently, a look of awkward embarrassment on his face.
Sure enough, compared to this pack of shameless she-wolves, he was still too green.
After teasing someone a bit, and regaining a sense of familiarity, Jill Hera chuckled, her gloomy mood brightening considerably.
"By the way, aren't you planning to settle accounts with the other two Schrodinger Company?"
"I remember, that former president of Umbrella Corporation missed you terribly..."
Jill Hera sniffed the Rose between her fingers, slightly curious about Kevin's plans.
"Lufus made a deal with me, saying he'd revitalize Japan in one year and purge the Schrodinger Company within three years..."
"Since he doesn't want me to get involved, as a friend, I should at least give the young man a chance to grow..."
"It's a perfect opportunity to use the Spencer and Travis families to sharpen his skills..."
Kevin admitted that his expression was inscrutable, like that of a chess master who made elegant moves and had a broad mind.
"I heard that in order to get funding for the 'Japan Reconstruction Project' from the SCP Foundation, Schrodinger Company sacrificed a lot of its shares, almost losing everything."
"Moreover, they even gave you Eclair, the commander of the Imperial Army, as a hostage. Quite the appetite..."
Jill Hera smiled wryly, her expression strange and full of mockery.
"This is absolutely slander! Utter slander!"
Kevin stubbornly argued, his face turning bright red.
When he was cutting into Schrodinger Company's flesh, he was ruthless and had no emotional burden whatsoever. But that changed when Lufus transferred Thunder's semi-sold contract to another unscrupulous company.
Kevin subconsciously left some room for Lufus to recover, and some issues that were previously being argued between the two sides were basically settled in one fell swoop.
Then, in an attempt to get revenge, Kevin unleashed his sharp tongue, and the two of them, neither willing to back down, exposed each other's shortcomings and mocked each other all the way. By the time they arrived at the V-17 military fortress, the sky was Fan Xing.
After eating some simple military rations, Kevin lay down on the bed and drifted off to sleep.
At midnight, a Rose petal, sharp enough to cut through gold and jade, shot through the crack in the door and shattered the lock.
Hearing the noise, Kevin woke up instantly and became wary of the graceful figure in the moonlight.
"Hey, didn't we agree on a truce during the day? What are you up to now?"
At this moment, Jill Hera smiled without saying a word. When she was close enough to her prey, she immediately lowered her waist and pressed down on the little brother's abdomen. The heat from the crevice of his buttocks made the victim gasp.
"Of course... I'll use you first before you use me!"
The Doll-head Mature Woman, who had taken the initiative, grinned smugly. Then, the sound of tearing fabric rang out, and the thorny Rose willingly broke off its poisonous thorns, revealing its defenseless beauty in full bloom.
Chapter 562, Section 591: Who can carry over 900 pounds of welfare supplies?
As dawn broke, snow swirled outside the B-17 military supply depot, with tiny white snowflakes pelting the windows and forming a thick frost.
Her slender, jade-like fingers playfully drew an arrow piercing a heart on the frozen window frame. Then, the Doll-head Mature Woman turned her head, glanced at the handsome young man still fast asleep on the bed, and stepped forward.
Her fiery red lips gently touched Kevin's forehead, her soft whisper revealing a hint of regret.
"Tsk, you were cuter when you were little. If I'd known I'd fall for you, I would have made my move sooner..."
Jill Hera slipped a letter bearing Golden Rose into Kevin's pillow, noticing his eyelashes fluttering slightly, Doll-head Mature Woman reluctantly pushing it away.
Immediately, she took a running start and jumped onto the balcony, blew a kiss to the man on the bed in farewell, and then leaped away, disappearing into the endless snowstorm.
Outside the B-17 military fortress, the once dashing and debonair Jill Hera now leans against a cedar tree with one hand, his brows furrowed, and he limps along.
Damn it, the Gene Lock was unlocked and it still isn't fixed! You're causing so much trouble, and you still have the nerve to say you were passive? You're worse than an animal!
After taking one last deep look at the B-17 military fortress, Jill Hera clutched her aching abdomen and continued walking, her steps uneven.
However, Jill Hera did not notice the figure that had been following her closely in the snow, precisely in her footprints, for a very long time, until he watched her enter the road to the human village before quietly turning back.
On the way, Kevin opened the letter. The Rose scent emanating from the paper had a delicate and elegant quality, while the graceful handwriting was powerful and subtly sharp.
"Hey kid, even though you're willing to take me in, I don't like being kept by someone..."
"I found clues about my sister Ling and brother Yuri from the Wild Serpent Base (Gun Gale Online comic). They should both be at the Deep Sea Agent Academy..."
"Don't ask, don't interfere, I can handle this myself! Leave me some dignity!"
"Also, remember this!"
"Last night I slept with you— the SCP Foundation Founder! And now I'm the one who's denying it after I've done it! Remember this embarrassing incident for the rest of your life!"
"When you retire, I'll take care of you!"
Kevin stared at the haughty and conquering Mature Woman emanating from the letter, and couldn't help but grin, a wry smile spreading across his face.
Just as the man, whose pants had been pulled up and who was now denying everything, was deep in thought, a postcard with a picture of the sea and sky, birds and whales, fell from the envelope into his palm, with a short poem written on the back.
"I am a bird, a lonely and romantic bird, who loves to fly around the earth, but is heartbroken because I cannot find sweet love."
"You are a whale, the sea is a city without walls, gazing up at the sky where birds fly."
Kevin read the details aloud to himself, examining the bill of exchange again and again. Then, he carefully placed it and the letter into the envelope, treasuring it with a thousand thoughts running through his mind.
Because of fate, he was surrounded by many exceptional women, each with their own unique characteristics.
Although, through various coincidences and life-or-death trials, they inevitably left indelible marks on each other's hearts.
But they are all destined to be birds that do not belong in a cage. Even if they fall in love with one person, they cannot smooth out their edges, live a mundane life as wives and mothers, or they would lose their true beauty.
Similar to Lara's love of adventure and passion for archaeology; Jill's pursuit of justice and law; Alice's curiosity about acting and her desire to fill the void in her life...
Each of them can only be truly called a perfect being in their own field.
Therefore, Kevin doesn't expect every woman he's ever been involved with to stay by his side and become a caged canary.
Since they want freedom, then I will release you back to the sea and sky, so you may roam freely.
Whenever you get tired of flying, whether it's a deserted island, a reef, or a coastline, I'm always your safe haven or resting place.
However, perhaps it will one day become an aircraft carrier at sea, possessing several fighter squadrons...
Kevin shook his head self-deprecatingly, offered his blessing to Jill Hera, and secretly ordered the "World Tree" to monitor and assist him before returning to the B-17 military fortress.
A simple farewell, yet with a lingering aftertaste, can only be savored in one's own heart.
