Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

Chapter 80 Another person in the room



"Doctor, Thomas is here!"

Beichen kicked open the door of the doctor's office and stepped in.

The doctor was used to it and raised his hand to say hello to Beichen, but the other person in the room was startled.

"Hey, Truth, you're here too. You're here to borrow a book from the doctor, right?"

Beichen also said hello to the startled Zhenli who was standing next to the bookshelf.

Truth also nodded and said hello, then stood on tiptoe and tried to reach the books on the top row of bookshelves.

However, due to his height, the truth could only touch the bottom of the book, but could not take it off.

"I'd better help you."

Beichen waved her hand, and the book that Zhenli's finger touched just now floated into her hand.

"Um, thank you."

The truth was still a little unresponsive and he hurriedly took the book.

After bowing to the doctor, Zhenli quickly left the office holding the book.

"Hey, doctor, why don't you help me get it? You just sit here and don't move, right?"

"How can I be faster than you? When I was about to get up, you had already helped her take down the book and put it in her hands. You can't blame me for this."

The doctor sighed and continued: "Okay, what do you want to see me for?"

At this time, Beichen took out the document bag and handed it to the doctor, saying, "This is what Instructor Dupin asked me to give to you. It seems to be...a training plan."

The doctor stretched out his hand to take it, and complained feebly: "Actually, this kind of document does not require my inspection or modification at all, but it must go through my approval and confirmation. Basically, I am occupied with this kind of work every day. It’s all gone.”

The doctor opened the document bag and continued: "Fortunately, there is less work today. If it is still like yesterday, I will consider finding Kelsey and asking her if I can resign."

Beichen had already begun to imagine that situation in his mind.

The doctor slammed the resignation application on Kelsey's face, then arrogantly pointed at Kelsey's nose and cursed.

"Damn Kelsey, your oppression of me is over. I won't be a doctor in Rhode Island anymore!"

Then the doctor calmly took a taxi and left.

Only Kelsey was left chasing the taxi, constantly crying: "Doctor, doctor, how can I live without you...Doctor, please take me away, doctor!"

Of course, this is just Beichen's fantasy.

If the doctor really dared to do this in reality, he would be caught directly by Mon3tr, and then severely squeeze the remaining value of the doctor again.

This is reasonable enough.

Beichen suddenly discovered another problem and asked: "By the way, doctor, why is there no one on duty today? Shouldn't there be a guard next to you?"

"Hiss, can't even you find her?"

The doctor felt a little surprised.

Can't find her?

After the ability was released, Beichen felt her position.

"Behind the sofa on the left, right."

The doctor shook his head and said: "I don't know where she is specifically. I just know that she is indeed in my office now. Maybe she slipped out when I opened the door just now."

"look."

The doctor held up a piece of paper lying next to the table with a few lines written on it.

Putting down the piece of paper, the doctor continued: "My communication with her depends on this. According to the medical department's examination, invisibility is a side effect of ore disease, and she cannot control the release of this ability. In addition, she is introverted. His character makes communication even more difficult.”

"By the way, I forgot to introduce you to the other person in the room, who is also an operator from Rhode Island, Miss Manticore. She is here to be my escort today. I don't know if she came voluntarily, but... Compared with the last time I met her, she has made a lot of progress this time."

"What progress?"

Beichen asked curiously. At the same time, what surprised him was that Manticore was also on the island now. Beichen thought he was some new operator.

"At least this time she took the initiative to communicate with me when she came in. Unlike last time, when I stepped on her tail when I went to get water, I realized that she was already in my office. Finally, I found out that she was holding the employment application. He has been standing next to me for a long time, but he never dared to talk to me, or communicate with me."

"It's really her style." Beichen commented.

"Oh? Have you known her before?" The doctor asked, "Your tone sounds familiar."

Beichen shook his head and said, "I only found out about it from other operators' chats."

"Is that so...but I feel quite safe with such an invisible guard by my side. You didn't even notice her when you first entered the room."

This is true. Without using her abilities, Beichen really couldn't feel any aura from her.

When he was playing a game to read operator secrets before, Beichen learned that she could even walk on the sand without leaving any footprints, and even almost succeeded in sneaking into the eye of the storm when she was extremely weak.

Who is in the eye of the storm? That is the Pigeon God of War, an archer with excellent physical strength in his personal file. The strength of the Manticore is evident.

"That's true, but I can still find her. Just like now, doctor, she is on your right side, less than 20 centimeters away."

The doctor turned around and saw that the piece of paper used for communication was suspended in mid-air, and a pen was writing on it.

Not long after, the paper quietly returned to the doctor's desk, and the pen suspended in the air disappeared.

(By the way, I found a problem, that is, Manticore's file said that her ability cannot affect inanimate objects, so what happened to her clothes? Are the clothes alive or not worn at all (?), Is this reasonable? Anyway, I just think it can make the clothes invisible together, otherwise I don’t feel very good personally)

The doctor picked up the paper with writing on it again and called out to Beichen who was about to take Nan Xi away and leave.

"Wait a minute, Beichen, Manticore asked me how you discovered her. Since you have many abilities, I'm not sure which one it is, so I think it's better for you to explain."

Beichen turned around and said, "Is that so? I'm thinking about what to say...forget it, let's just do this."

Beichen stretched out her hand into the air and let out a small exclamation, but she quickly suppressed her voice.

From the perspective of Nan Xi and the doctor, they saw nothing, but from the perspective of Manticore, she was lifted into the air by an unknown force.

"You blocked the flow of the air, so I was able to detect you. This kind of invisibility that still has physical form cannot avoid my detection."

Beichen gently put Manticore down, and the paper and pen reappeared in the air. Beichen did not leave first, but quietly waited for Manticore to write down everything he wanted to say.

The note fell lightly into Beichen's hand, but from Beichen's perspective, Manticore carefully put the note into Beichen's hand, then quickly retracted his hand and hid behind it.

There was a line of words written in elegant handwriting on the note.

"Can you determine my location at any time?"

Beichen thought for a while and replied: "Not at any time, but as long as I want to and you are next to me, I can determine your location."

After Beichen finished speaking, the office became quiet again.

Beichen felt that Manticore's hand seemed to be touching something in her pocket. She seemed to have found it, but she couldn't take it out completely for a long time.

Finally, Manticore put a letter into Beichen's hand, and then hid behind the sofa again as if running away.

Beichen opened the lavender envelope sealed with a morning glory sticker and took out the folded letter paper with a few words written on it.

"Please be my friend."

There are obvious traces of alteration on the paper, and it must have been revised many times.

A faint voice came from behind the sofa.

"May I?"

"Of course, Operator Manticore."
