"I know you want to say that word, but it's not betrayal, my dear Bond."

The dwarf, who had discussed blowing up Shadowforge City with Bond before, screamed proudly:

"I have never been the same as you. Let's get to know each other again. I come from the Dark Blade Intelligence Agency, Gnomeregan Secret Operations Section. Call me Aldridge... Level 5 agent, you are really lucky. You are here soon.

When you closed the net, you finally made a decision that was not a bad one."

"Okay, dwarf, you talk too much!"

The woman who had been silent suddenly stood up, causing Bond to raise his head subconsciously. This woman was really tall, at least 2.5 meters. She was wearing a leather windbreaker lined with black combat uniforms. She looked very majestic, and

Serious, with a white mask on his face, under the mask, Bond saw a pair of blood-red eyes... Damn it, this is a dangerous Sarain!

Those eyes were examining Bond, who couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and then heard the Sarain elf say in a hoarse voice:

"Introduce yourself, you can call me "Shadow", a level 9 agent of the Dark Blade Intelligence Agency. My people have been paying attention to you for a long time, Mr. Bond, but before I start, I want to ask, what is it that prompted

You came here tonight..."

"Of course, this is a personal question and you can choose not to answer it."

Bond was silent for more than ten seconds. Finally, under the gaze of the dwarf and Sarain, he clenched his fists, then unclenched them, and finally clenched them again. He took a deep breath, relaxed his body, and said with a calm expression

Facing the "new friend" in front of him, he said:

"I didn't have a choice before, but now... I just want to be an ordinary person. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"good!"

Shadow stretched out her hand and patted it dryly, like applauding. She looked at Bond. After a few seconds, she picked up a document from the table behind her and threw it to the human agent.

"Sign it!"

"This is?"

Bond looked through the documents and asked. The shadow did not answer, but the noisy dwarf answered on his behalf:

"The Witness Protection Program, or another name, Operation Paperclip, you just need to know that signing this document is equivalent to you voluntarily giving up all previous identities and switching to federal service. After 1-3 years of inspection

After the period, you and your family will get a new identity and live in a new place. No one will know your past, and you and your family will be included in the federal protection system."

"The Commonwealth is committed to protecting the fundamental rights of every citizen."

After the dwarf's introduction, Shadow added a few more words:

"Working for the Dark Blade Intelligence Agency, you don't need to worry about being silenced in the end... As long as you show your loyalty to the Federation, we will protect you like we protect 750,000 citizens. The Federation is more civilized and advanced than the Empire in this regard.

That's why in the intelligence war between the two sides, you were repeatedly pressed to the ground and rubbed by us...with no power to fight back."

"Hmm, sounds good..."

Bond picked up the pen. Before signing his name, he glanced at the shadow and said softly:

"Can I make an additional request?"

"explain!"

Shadow nodded, and she said meaningfully:

"The request cannot be too excessive. Of course, this limit depends on the weight of the secret you can provide us."

"I hope you don't have any worries, Mr. Bond. You and I both know that secrets will destroy a person from the inside, and as long as you are worried about the secrets in your heart, you can never really quit...

Considering what you've done in the past, this is your only chance."

"I think..."

As Bond signed his real name on the document, his eyes shone with tenderness, and he said softly as if joking:

"I want a house in North County."
