Chapter 706 We Still Have Tomorrow
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
The girl in a dress came in front of Leia.
She lifted her skirt slightly and saluted towards Leia. "I am a special advisor to the East German Special Management Bureau assigned by the Eastern European Special Management Bureau. My name is Sasha, Sasha Krasde, and I am an astrologer."
"Yeah." Leia also nodded gently to the girl.
"I've seen your file. You worked as a consultant for the Huaxia Tianhai Special Management Bureau for a while, right?"
Sasha immediately became excited when she heard this.
"Yes, I worked as a consultant for the Ninth Squad of the Supernatural Management Section of the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau. I had a very happy time there and learned a lot of useful knowledge in China, especially the language. Would you like me to speak a few words in Northeastern dialect?"
"Ahem...Ms. Sasha." Leia had to interrupt Sasha with a wry smile.
"Ah, sorry, sorry~ I just talk a lot."
"It's okay, this is my application."
As she spoke, Rhea handed a thick stack of documents to Sasha.
"Okay, well, I saw on the electronic letter you submitted that you wanted to access the scientific directorate of the East German Special Administration Bureau for the past twenty years. Is this because of Prometheus?"
Leia was slightly stunned.
This seemingly carefree girl is actually quite thoughtful.
But she didn't intend to hide it.
"Yes, I was sent by the Science Council of the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau, but this time I was mainly assigned by the General Administration to look up some historical archives about Prometheus."
"It's terrible. Is the Prometheus thing not over yet?" Sasha said as she flipped through the documents.
"Just some archived files that need to be sorted out, so I need some underlying data from the first phase of Prometheus."
"I see."
Sasha sat at her desk, closed the documents with a smile, and then looked at Leia with her hands folded and her chin supported.
"Are you really from the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau, Miss Claire?"
Her question startled Leia for a moment, but she quickly replied with a smile, "Well, I'm a staff member of the Archives Management Section of the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau. You can look up my information in the archives of the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau..."
"No, no, no."
Sasha smiled and waved her hand, and then a tarot card appeared from between her fingers like magic.
"I generally don't like to check archives, because that kind of thing is too easy to tamper with. I usually like to ask fate, and fate tells me..."
Before she knew it, countless tarot cards had surrounded Rhea.
"You're not even human, Miss Claire."
Leia was silent for a while, then slowly lowered her head.
"It seems like you've already admitted it? Then there's no need to waste your breath."
Sasha smiled, and at this moment, Leia slowly raised her head, her eyes becoming confident and gentle.
"Ms. Krasde, I find your belief in fate quite innovative, but perhaps you've overlooked one point: the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau's decision to have me search for Prometheus without revealing my identity has a deeper meaning."
"I've already said that I don't believe..."
"You don't need to believe the files. Ask your fate again, in a different way, whether I really came here with ill intentions."
Sasha stared at the girl in front of her.
At this moment, she felt as if the girl had become a different person inside.
So Sasha gently caught the tarot cards flying in the air and then covered them on the table.
After closing her eyes to sense everything and finally turning over the tarot cards, she frowned slightly.
"Fate tells me that you came to save."
"I can't go into too much detail, but please believe me, I'm just looking for some Prometheus underlying code and information. This is extremely important."
Leia leaned forward slightly and stared at Sasha. "And there's nothing wrong with my paperwork, right?"
Sasha pondered for a moment, then stood up.
"Please follow me."
Under Sasha's guidance, Leia walked through the corridors of the East German Special Management Bureau and came to a seemingly inconspicuous old site.
There is an old laboratory here, which is not very big. The traces of time have left mottled marks on the walls. Many dusty and completely scrapped equipment are placed in a mess, as if telling of the past glory.
"It was here that Dr. Elias created the theory of evolution, which is the underlying logic of Prometheus." Sasha opened the door of the laboratory with the key, and then made way for the girl behind her.
"This is mostly useless information. I can't guarantee it will be useful to you."
"Well, I can find it myself." Leia smiled at Sasha, and then walked into the room without any hesitation, without avoiding the dust flying all over the room.
"I only requested one hour for you. After all, this involves Prometheus. I will come to pick you up in an hour."
After saying that, Sasha bowed slightly to Leia.
The door slowly closed, isolating the outside noise and leaving only Rhea and the dusty documents.
"Mr. Sherlock is really good at fooling people."
There is nothing wrong with our procedures, ma'am. You lack the rationality of a android.
"Oh~ Who knows, maybe I was influenced too much by that person named Li Muhan."
As Leia spoke, she began to search for information in the heavy iron cabinet.
[Madam, with all due respect, are you being a little too concerned about Li Muhan?]
"Really? Isn't he the key figure~"
[I hope we can reach a consensus that everything we do is to deal with Moriarty]
"On this basis, allowing more people to survive is not a conflict~"
[Theoretical non-conflict is just not put into practice in real environment]
Leia piled the thick documents on the ground, and then sat down cross-legged without avoiding the dusty ground.
"Okay, come and look with me to see if our great mother left behind anything important."
Time passes by every second.
Most of the information here is paper documents, so Leia cannot use scanning to conduct large-scale searches.
Even if you only glance at a stack of documents a few times, it still takes time.
We have ten minutes left, ma'am, but there's no more information to search for.
The girl propped her chin on her hand and glanced around the room.
"Could it be that we missed something?"
Soon, she discovered that there seemed to be some residual radio waves in one of the computers.
Rhea stood up, pushed aside the equipment blocking her way, and walked over to the old binary computer.
Her hand gently placed on the device, and some binary codes flashed in her mind.
[This is the beginning of everything, but it will not be the end of everything. Give this gift to my daughter, 035]
"The beginning of everything..."
[.....Maybe, we can leave now]
"Mr. Sherlock, have you noticed something but don't want to tell me?"
[…I’m just trying to figure out if this is the answer we’re looking for.]
Leia didn't say anything, she had already sensed something from these codes.
Then she immediately returned to the pile of documents and closed her eyes.
The girl used all her computing power to extract every word from the thousands of documents she had just browsed and arranged and combined them according to the guidance of the binary code.
Finally, she slowly opened her eyes.
"...Mr. Sherlock."
【......】
“This is a gift from my mother.”
If it were me, I would not give such a gift to my child.
"..." Leia slowly squatted on the ground and used the last five minutes to put the information back into the cabinet.
"...I have already analyzed the black box that my mother left behind."
[You can use it to do other things. Don't you long to become a human? Maybe we can...]
"If this world doesn't exist, then what's the point of me being human?"
【......】
The voice fell silent.
He had indeed discovered the secret of the information long ago and had already arranged and combined it.
"You told me, Mr. Sherlock, that we should maintain unity of purpose. Our goal is to destroy Moriarty."
There shouldn’t be only one solution to a problem.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Sherlock."
At this moment, the door opened and Sasha stood at the door.
The girl took a deep breath and then walked towards the place where the light shone.
"Go and have a cigarette, Mr. Sherlock, you must be choking."
When she walked past Sasha, the girl stopped, then turned around and looked at her with a smile.
"Thank you and I wish you a bright future."
Sasha stared blankly at the girl's back as she left.
"What's wrong with her? Even fate can't tell me what she wants to do..."
Left the East German Special Control Bureau.
The girl's steps became lighter, and she came to the riverside along the winding path. It was a poetic place. The river water sparkled silver in the sun, and the waves were sparkling, as if countless diamonds were jumping on the water.
She stood on the river bank, her figure stretched out in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The flowing river seemed to be in sync with her heartbeat, giving her an indescribable sense of peace and harmony.
However, she had no heartbeat, and this was just a beautiful illusion.
A breeze blew by, bringing with it the freshness of the river water and the fragrance of the distant fields, which also lifted her mood.
"Mr. Sherlock."
I'm here, ma'am.
“This is called the Rhine Valley. It’s a beautiful place.”
[I know, ma'am, although I haven't visited, I have heard about it]
"Would you like to see more places?"
[Oh? Do you mean Cologne Cathedral or Brandenburg Gate?]
"Not just here, there are many, many beautiful places in the world. Can you accompany me to see them? I also want to go to the amusement park, go surfing, sunbathe, and eat lots of delicious food~"
【......】
Sherlock said no more.
He could sense the girl's intention. Was this gift a bit too heavy for a newborn child?
Poor kid...
You are the most beautiful gift Prometheus has left to this world...
[Glad to accompany you, ma’am]
"Don't worry, we still have time before that day comes."
The girl gently lifted the hair that was blown by the breeze, her eyes sparkling.
"We still have tomorrow..."
