CM: (What, you need a parade?)
21: [Fine. Tomorrow, 7 PM, south gate of my school]
Cyrus
didn’t reply. Briar didn’t care. To her, it was just some blocker meds. Small dose, easy to gel.
Non–official channels meant no blowback on the Medical Research Institute if things went south.
Briar stared at her phone, specifically at a contact labeled “Boss.”

Chapter 24
After much hesitation, Briar finally decided not to call and just sent a message instead
Black Mamba: [It’s my fault that File 531 went missing. I take full responsibility. Strucze region can’t send a large team into the country. If any losses occur, I’ll bear the consequences]
This was practically a vow,
Losing the file was already her fault.
This time, she took the messy situation upon herself. If she couldn’t resolve it, it wouldn’t be a small matter at the very least, she’d lose her position as the chief instructor of District 21 in the base.
Soon, a message popped up on her phone screen.
There were no words, just a space, with a sense of perfunctory attitude spilling out of the screen.
But Briar knew that this meant her teacher had agreed
If the other party wasn’t being perfunctory, that was when she’d really start to worry.
Letting out a long sight. Briar stood up and walked out of the dorm with her phone. “Lamb, get me some meds from the medical research instituce,” she said over the phone.
“Huh? What do you need? just have someone bring it over, no big deal. Atticus’s voice was still slow, as if he had just woken up, with a slight nasal
tone to it.
“Don’t even mention meds–if you wanted the land under the institute, they’d have to dig it up for you right away”
“Nonsense” Briar humphed. “If I could just ask directly, why would I tell your I need 0.02 ounce of Tr2 virus blocking meds. The base can’t know it for me, you have to help me.”
If it were someone else, it might be fine, but if the Supervision Department wanted meds that were still in development from the insinute, the Institute would definitely track the subsequent use.
That would bring a lot of trouble.
Atticus thought carefully for a moment before replying, “Alright, when do you need it?”
Tomorrow afternoon.
“What?” Atticus paused. “For such a small amount, chartering a tight from the justitute to Limond–the shipping fee is pretty steep.”
The shipping fee doesn’t matter: Fll get him to reimburse it
“Himk
The
guy from the Supervision Department, the one who came here for surgery last time.”
“Ah, I see. Is he still alive!
Briar rolled her eyes involuntarily. Thanks to you, not only is he alive, but he’s more than energetic.”
Cyrus
surgery.
had suffered such serious injuries, and besides her and Atticus, there were only a handful of people in the world who could perform that
It just so happened that they were here for him.
Atticus chuckled slowly and didn’t say anything more. “I’ll arrange the meds you need”
Briar responded with an okay and hung up the phone
Meanwhile, in a manor on the outskirts of Limond.
Enzo, looking at the computer screen with a helpless expression, said, “Cyrus. I’ve used every channel I can. The girl’s background checks out fine. Even if it’s fabricated, it’s done pretty well.

Chapter 24
“What about the International Medical Research Institute?”
“Con’t trace it.” Enzo turned the computer screen towards Cyrus. Look. I’ve ploned her travel routes. She’s young but has been to a lot of places, from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle
“The whole world’s almost not enough for her to hop around. Who knows where she connected with the International Medical Research Institute!”
The computer screen displayed a world map with dense red arrows marking Briar’s travel routes over the years, along with place name annotations.
The authenticity of this travel map was actually questionable
But it was certain that she spent most of the year flying all over the world, which was
very
odd.
Enzo glanced at Cyrus and asked, “Cyrus, do we keep digging?”
“Forget it” Cyrus shook his head. “She’s in the Supervision Department now. There’ll be plenty of opportunities later”
As soon as he finished, Cyrus’s phone buzzed.
He glanced down, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Seeing this, Enzo was extremely curious and leaned over to peek at Cyrus’s phone screen. “Holly crap! What on earth costs half a million in shipping fees?!”
That little brat was clearly asking for the moon! he cursed inwardly
Not only did liniar demand a shipping fee of half a million, but she also sent over a bank account directly.
Enzo just glanced and knew it was an overseas non–anonymous bank
The local government’s impotence meant the bank’s oversight was very lax, and dirty money from all over the world could be washed clean there
Cyrus’s expression remained unchanged; he simply said in a calm voice. “Half a million dollars. Go transfer the money
Enzo’s face twisted. “Wait, Cyrus
Cyrus gave him a sidelong glance without a word.
Enzo instantly shut up.
The boot camp of Limond University last for seven days, with the first three dedicated to campus fours.
