The next day, at 8:37 on July 25, 2552, at 8:37 in the camp of the noble (noble) team, he got up on time at 6 a.m., and now he has completed the morning training. After finishing breakfast, Lieutenant Colonel Noble 1, the captain of the captain Noble 1, had reported on the details of the battle at the Weisgler relay station last night, and explained in detail the reasons for the highest alarm of the "cold winter emergency". Today, he once again contacted their chief, Colonel Holland.
‘…’
‘Carter, I don’t have much time, do you have anything important?’
Obviously, Colonel Holland in the video conversation seemed a little busy, so he said that he was a little surprised and impatient about the fact that Carter, the captain of the noble team, contacted him early in the morning again?
"Report to the sir!"
"I just want to know, for the little 'survivor' girl we brought back yesterday afternoon, you've read our report? I want to ask, how are you planning to place her?"
To be honest, Carter himself was also a little conflicted about the ignorant and talented little girl. Although they brought her back from the Vesgler relay station yesterday, after contact, he seemed to have fallen in love with the little girl who helped them a lot. Moreover, he felt a little compassionate, wanting to send the other party to the other party's parents or relatives as soon as possible, and stay away from the tragic wars and pains that should not be endorsed by the other party's age.
The war was tragic and ruthless. Thinking about the training process of his Spartan warrior with service number a259, thinking about the war with the Star Covenant over the years and the clear eyes of the little girl, in the end, it prompted him to answer the call with Colonel Holland.
‘Resettlement?’
‘Sorry! Noble1, how do you want us to place her?’
Colonel Holland in the picture was stunned for a moment. After hearing that the other party was asking about this, he sighed and gave Carter a bitter smile.
Of course he could smell a little bit of his powerful captain, what was the lieutenant colonel of the Spartan squad, who belonged to him, but he said that he was a little helpless and said that the other party seemed to be a little too late to ask now?
They had already made arrangements for that little girl, and now the other party is planning to interfere, obviously there will be no result.
'well……'
'I guess you know, we have never met such a strange little guy. Let's not talk about her talent and ability. Just because of her identity, I'm afraid that the intelligence officers on the Oni are going crazy!'
Because, even after multiple investigations by super artificial intelligence networks and various means for advanced data processing at Zhiyuan Star, Oni has to admit that the little girl, the eight-year-old girl named Anne Hasta, she does not exist in Zhiyuan Star and the entire human world in the entire Unsc database!
That's right, it doesn't exist...
After investigation, Oni's intelligence officers finally gave him Colonel Holland's feedback: No such person was found!
Yes, the little girl who showed off her skills outside the Vesgrad relay station and used a 14.5x114mmap-fs-ds shell-removing wing stabilized armor-piercing bullet that she picked up on the ground and laid a victory in a small-scale battle. Her amazing performance like the hand of God, and provided great long-range sniper assistance and support to the Noble team. She "doesn't exist" in this world at all!
At least, it doesn't exist in the database?
It is hard to imagine that in today's era when science and technology are extremely developed, in this era when space navigation and colonization can be carried out, an eight-year-old girl has no birth records, medical records, admission records, and any other records and proofs of the existence of a clue that can be found?
To be honest, if that little guy hadn't been discovered and brought back by Kaat, and the other party had indeed helped them with Unsc, killed countless Star Covenant soldiers who were planning to destroy the Vesgrad relay station, and looked like a normal human with blonde hair and blue eyes, and there was no big problem with the basic physical examination, they would even almost doubt whether the other party was some ulterior motive props of Star Covenant!
"Of course I know, Colonel!"
"But that's not a big problem, isn't it? Regarding Anne's identity, it's just that it may have been smuggled from another planet, because Zhiyuan Star is rich and prosperous enough. Compared with other remote and harsh environments, living conditions here are more affordable, job opportunities are greater, and money is more earned?"
"Or..."
"At the worst, she is just a family member of a rebel. As far as I know, there are quite a few people in our orphanage in Unsc. Besides, Anne is just a child now, and she has helped us a lot. I don't think that's a problem."
"So, Colonel..."
Carter was about to continue saying something when he was interrupted by Colonel Holland who was in the video call.
‘noble1…’
‘If you can prove her identity, we will give her proper place and may even send her to her relatives or parents…and if you can’t, you just need to keep her in your camp for a while and wait for the final arrangements made by our Unsc Army Third Special Operations Team and our superiors.’
‘So, do you have any questions?’
Colonel Holland was already a little impatient because he was very busy now, and the infiltration of the Star Covenant was discovered on Zhiyuan Star, which was very difficult for Unsc!
After all, the command center of Unsc is here at Zhiyuan Star, and with the importance of Zhiyuan Star itself, they are now urgently deploying some tasks, but they don’t have time to go with Carter to waste too much time on the issue of a little girl!
Although that little girl is talented or something, now it is a critical moment for Zhiyuanxing. They will not waste too much time on such a little guy, which is something that other non-combatants should care about.
"Damn it!"
"Sorry, sir, I wasn't talking about you just now..."
"But I don't understand, you know, we have seen with our own eyes that she killed at least dozens of soldiers from the Covenant, and she is indeed a human. Is there any proof that this needs?!"
Carter became a little excited, and his tone became higher involuntarily, obviously disagreed with certain views of his superior, Colonel Holland.
‘That’s right!’
‘This is the crux of the matter!’
'All our intelligence agencies can't find out her identity information, whether it's Oni's intelligence officer or our Unsc Army intelligence officer, so where do you ask us to send her? Could it be that she will be sent to her parents who don't know where, or even whether they are dead or alive, and let her turn her guns to deal with us?'
Yes, until now, Colonel Holland prefers that the little girl Anne is a family member of a rebels active in Zhiyuan Star, rather than a smuggler who inexplicably smuggled from other colonial stars to Zhiyuan Star?
Because, five months ago, Zhiyuanxing's rebels attacked the relay station at Hamani, causing the reconnaissance facilities to be shut down, and also stole two transport ships from the dry dock!
Only the families of the rebels can get the other party to be exposed to the weapons of the S99 special-purpose rifle at this age, or even at an younger age, and be able to use them smoothly and correctly. Only the children of the rebels may have no records in the Oni and Unsc databases at all!
If ordinary children who smuggle Hakka, let alone whether they can continue to remain calm in that environment, they may not even know how to load their weapons, how to open the insurance, and how to fire them?
Even if she fiddled around and successfully fired, if the posture and method were wrong, I am afraid that the powerful recoil of the S99 special-purpose rifle could almost shatter her tender shoulders with one shot. How could she have the chance to fire so many shots, but she still did not miss the gun. She performed so amazingly, and even surpassed a battle-hardened Spartan warrior in shooting?!
"All right……"
"Sir, can I ask, do you already have any plans?"
After a short while of silence, Carter, who was a little depressed, had to speak regretfully. Because, after hearing this, he already knew about what would be waiting for that little guy.
‘Carter!’
'I have a very good place for her. Someone heard about her and was very interested in her! However, I was a little hesitant about it and didn't know whether to do that... I originally wanted to wait a few days before the investigation of the Star Alliance infiltrating Zhiyuan Star was completed. However, since you have asked now, let's decide today!'
'so……'
‘Lt. Col. Carter, are you and your team members willing to trust her and jointly guarantee and recommend her?’
Colonel Holland did not say how to arrange the little girl Anne, but just asked suddenly.
“…”
"Yes, we all want to, sir, do you have any good suggestions?"
Although I don’t know why the other party suddenly asked that, Lieutenant Colonel Carter said confidently on behalf of his team members after hesitating for a while.
Because the little girl helped them no matter how much, he felt that no matter how he and his team members were, they should help each other. As for whether they would cause trouble, it would be irrelevant! After all, their Spartan existence itself is a super trouble and is in trouble all the time, and he has nothing to be afraid of.
'very good!'
‘Then, she will be admitted to the new Alexander Military Academy and become a new student!!’
Colonel Holland did not keep it a secret, but said his decision that he had not intended to be so anxious.
Originally, he planned to continue observing the little girl for a few days after a while, and wait until he investigated the other party's exact identity and more information before making the next arrangement. However, he suddenly felt that it would not be a good idea to let the other party get too many secrets in this wartime state, so he changed his mind temporarily.
"But sir, I don't remember that there is a military academy in Atlanta?"
‘It wasn’t before, but now it’s already there!’
"What does that mean?"
‘Lieutenant Colonel, don’t you think you’re asking too much?’
"Sir, what do you want to do?"
‘…’
After staring at Carter, who was reluctant to give in, Colonel Holland suddenly laughed like a loss.
‘That’s it…’
‘An old friend of mine has always been very 'interested' in the Spartan program. There are some things that should not have been told to you, but since you are willing to guarantee the little girl and recommend it together, it doesn't matter if you say it.’
‘Anyway, he is going to pick some people and train a group of outstanding warriors, a group of warriors who are not inferior to you Spartans?’
‘So, after seeing your report and knowing about the little girl, I have been trying hard to ask me to hand over the person…’
‘Maybe that would be a good choice for her?’
Colonel Holland in the communication was spreading his hands indifferently. After all, the little girl must not stay in the camp of the noble team, and throwing it into the orphanage was a bit of a waste, so this matter was basically decided.
“!!”
"But sir! Military Academy recruits children, and that kind of practice has always been controversial."
‘Okay! Don’t say it anymore, you don’t have the right to object! And you saw it yesterday, she has great potential!’
‘This matter was decided…’
‘Or, if you can find her family, let her family protest to the Nusc Navy Special Operations Department?’
""
Carter was silent because he knew that what Colonel Holland said was obviously impossible, because they didn't even have who the little guy's parents were, and where are they now!
‘By the way!’
‘I can tell you in advance now that at the latest tonight, you will receive new tasks, and there may be more heavy combat missions waiting for you tomorrow. Now is not a time to be distracted by those little things!’
‘Let’s do it, two hours later, I will send a fighter falcon helicopter to your camp and pick up the little girl to New Alexandria. You just need to prepare for the relevant handover!’
‘Don’t worry, she will be well taken care of!’
"Sir..."
Carter opened his mouth and said nothing in the end, because he could see that Colonel Holland had decided that he could not change anything.
A few minutes later...
“…”
When Lieutenant Colonel Carter finished his conversation with Colonel Holland and returned to the rest room of the team with a hint of regret and helplessness, the members of the noble team were talking happily at this time, and from time to time they made hearty laughter.
From this point of view, noble6 has gradually integrated into his team, which is something Carter is happy to see.
As for that little girl...
Well, the other party seems to be the target of his team members' entertainment and teasing?
Think about it, in the intervals of tense tasks one after another, for the team members who were already tense, it would be better to have a blond, blue-eyed, well-behaved and cute little girl chatting and laughing with them in their camp, bragging and flirting and alleviating that depression.
‘!!’
'team leader!'
‘Lieutenant Colonel?’
‘Sir!’
‘…’
At this time, seeing his commander Lieutenant Colonel Carter come out of the communication room, the members of the noble team who were originally talking stood up and greeted each other or looked at each other.
“??”
(????▽????)?
Annie didn't speak, and still sat in her seat, just curiously looking at the other party with her big green eyes. Because she was not very familiar with this serious noble No. 1, and she was not a soldier of the other party, and she felt that there was no need to salute or greet the other party.
‘Well!’
‘You guys do whatever you want…’
Carter, who signaled the team members not to be polite, nor was he going to announce the mission at this time, finally stood in front of Annie and looked at the other party with complicated eyes.
“…”
(°〼°〃),
"Hi! Hello Carter, is there anything?"
(˙-˙=???????????)
He had no idea why the other party looked at him with that strange look. After Annie responded to the other party's two confused expressions, she asked cutely.
"Anne..."
"Col. Holland just said that you, a non-combatant, cannot stay in our camp forever, because it involves confidentiality... So, someone will come to pick you up in two hours, and you will be temporarily arranged to a military academy in New Alexandria until they investigate your origin and have new arrangements?"
"If you have something to pack, maybe you can prepare it now?"
Although that's the case, Carter didn't think the other party had anything to clean up, because when they brought the other party back from the Vesgrad relay station, there was really nothing more except the other party himself and the s99.
“Eh?”
(??????????????)???????????????
Anne felt a little incredible. She felt that she had performed a little and knocked down so many aliens. So, shouldn't they cry and begged her to stay, and then prepare her a set of their beautiful Thorhammer armor?
Why can't I wait to drive her away after she had just been there for one night?
'team leader?'
‘What's going on?’
‘How did they arrange it?’
‘Wow! It’s over. I just said that they really want to do something bad to Annie. She will definitely be scolded very badly!’
“??”
∑(??△)?!
Now, Annie became even more confused, and then she began to scan the captain and the No. 6 with confusion. Computer::/
'Shut up!'
‘Noble6, don’t scare her anymore! Catherine, go and take her to pack up and prepare it!’
To be honest, I'm afraid even Carter himself didn't know why he brought the other party back when he was in a hot mind instead of giving it to the reinforcements of the Unsc... However, since Colonel Holland helped him arrange the place for the little guy, he was indeed not easy to intervene too much, because that little guy was just a passerby to them, it would be better for them to focus more on the Star Covenant now?
Because he had a premonition that Zhiyuanxing would not be too calm in the next period of time, and they must do their best and be on standby!
‘Okay, Lieutenant Colonel!’
‘Hey! Little guy, I remember, you don’t seem to have anything to clean up…but I might be able to give you some r points to get some delicious moi burgers in New Atlanta?’
“??”
(?????????)????????????
"But, Sister Katherine, what is a moa burger?"
(???????)?
Anne did not resist and obediently asked the other party to take her hand to walk to the accommodation area in the camp behind.
‘That’s the best thing on Zhiyuan Star!’
“!!”
=??????????(?????*)
"So, where can I buy it?!"
??????????)?????????
‘’
‘There must be new Alexander’
“Is it really delicious?”
(????﹃????)
'You might know soon'
