Bab 1617: Chapter 1086 Father and Son (15)_1

After Ravona left, Mobius still remained in shock for a long time. Eventually, he looked at Loki with a complicated gaze, but Loki seemed calm, as if the person who had just sworn an oath of death was not him.

After a while, Mobius broke the silence. "What do you mean by our way out?"

"Like I said, it all comes down to that little girl you guys let go. Your bureau chief seems to think she's very important, which means she has value, at least more than you all."

"You're not planning on using her as a hostage, are you? That won't work, it was hard enough to let her go. If she has to come back…"

Loki transformed back into a woman. She sighed and looked at Mobius, "I guess your bureau chief must have told you that after the interrogation, she needed to be reset on her timeline. You couldn't let her go crazy or die, right?"

Mobius opened his mouth wide, looked at Loki, paused for a moment and stammered, "Yes, that's correct. How did you know that? Also, he specifically instructed us that when we roll back her time, we need to carefully preserve her memories. We can't have her losing memories or be mentally damaged…"

"That implies she has something on her that your bureau chief cares about deeply. It might even be what he thinks is the key to break the barrier. As long as you can find her and stay with her, the chief would be hesitant to act, fearing any harm to her. Therefore, he naturally wouldn't dare to confront you."

Mobius paused for a moment but quickly grasped the logic. Then, in a ludicrous tone, he said, "So, if we hadn't let her go in the first place, we wouldn't have to find her now, right?"

"You didn't know at the time that the bureau chief would go missing, so your decision to let her go to protect her was the right one. Otherwise, I wouldn't stay here to help you." Loki was walking forward, looking up to check the room numbers on the office doors as she spoke.

The two first came to Mobius' office, picked up Helen, and then continued forward.

"Archives…. Archives…. right here! I knew I saw it on the way here." Loki was about to push open the door, but Mobius stopped her, looked around and lowered his voice.

"Although I, Ravona and B15 have come to an agreement, meaning all employees of the Time Management Bureau are now on our side, we don't know if anyone else in the bureau can directly contact the bureau chief. You know what I mean…"

Loki nodded to indicate she understood. After all, Mobius had previously mentioned that their chief could split into many pieces. Maybe, there was another piece of the chief hidden somewhere in the Time Management Bureau. If we bump into him by mistake, we would be done for.

Mobius cleared his throat and walked to the door, pressed the communicator, and spoke, "Hunter B15, please respond. I have some disagreements about the details of Loki's criminal act. I need to go to the archives to get some proof. Can you send someone to open the door?"

Mobius was very careful with his choice of words, B15 didn't say much since both of them know what each other means. After a moment, a somewhat familiar guard walked over, saluted Mobius, and then opened the door for the two.

After entering the archive room, Loki put Helen down. When Mobius wasn't looking, she whispered in Helen's ear, Helen nodded immediately, and with a "whoosh" she ran into the stacks of files.

"Wait! Little girl, you can't mess around in here!" Mobius attempted to chase her, but Loki stopped him, "Don't worry, Helen knows her limit."

After that, she started to look around this archive room. The overall style was similar to the previous rooms - simple but somehow having a touch of steam aesthetic.

What was most noticeable were the shiny, colored gemstones placed next to the desk.

Noticing Loki's gaze, Mobius turned his head and casually said, "Oh, those are Infinity Gems, actually… wait, you've been convicted for using the Time Gem before. You must know what these things are."

Loki narrowed her eyes and walked over. There were at least a dozen Time Gems on the table, piled haphazardly next to the desk lamp like junk. Some sheets of paper were even under the gems.

Mobius walked over with his hands in his pants pockets, "These things are useless once they leave their own universe. They're merely pretty rocks now. People here often use them as paperweights. They look quite nice, don't they?"

"Can I take a few back?" Loki made no effort to hide the greedy light in her eyes, Mobius simply waved his hand, "Take as many as you want. After all, if this place is eventually destroyed, these things will be destroyed as well."

"However, I must remind you, I'm not joking. Even if you take them back to your universe, they will just be pretty rocks. Don't expect any magical functionalities…"

However, Loki revealed a chilling smile that made Mobius's spine shiver. She picked up a gemstone and held it up to her eye, then said:
