Jackir?” Nina was confused as to why Jackie suddenly hugged |
dher.
Nina loved Fongs, so
so she immediately hugged jacqueline back affectionately.
Nina’s body was so warm that bring in her arms made Jacqueline feel like her cold hear was warming up: Jacqueline leaned her face against Nines. muzzling her softly, basking in the comforting closeness.
After a while, Jacqueline pulled ba (and said with a sigh. “Nina, I really don’t like Clifford. He’s an clever and cunning, it’s scary. Meanwhile, you’re
innocent, he could trick you rauly”
Nina felt the same way
She also fch that Clifford was so cunning, always setting up a trap for firm to fall into
He was such a jerk.
Jacqueline continued. “Not I have to aidinat, Clifford has protected you well. He’s very smart and knows how to give you the most freedom within the rules. He taught you what you can and can’t die. Even though you’re a “war machine“, you’re different from sc. You can adapt well to a normal bfe. That’s Clifford’s doing With him protecting you. Fram be at case. You won’t get hurt with him around”
“Jackie!” Nma didn’t know why, but when she heard Jacqueline’s words, he felt that something was amiss
She gently pushed her away and touched Jacqueline’s forehead, asking. “Jackie, what’s wrong! Are you feeling unerl?”
Jacqueline lifted her eyebrow, confused.
Nina blinked and said. “Why did you suddenly say these words? It feels like you’re saying your last words.”
Her heart was pounding, and she felt very uneasy.
Jacqueline was good at hiding her feelings, but she noticed that Nina was becoming suspicious. So, she quickly smiled, pretending to be relat She shrugged and said. Tve made a big mistake, and I’ll definitely face severe punishment when they catch me. Who knows when we can see each other again So, I just got a bit emotional and had to express it
Thinking about this, Nina started to worry again.
Jacqueline had eliminated her entire family, which was already a serious crime, not to mention killing her supervisor. The higher ups definitely wouldn’t let her off easily
However, Nina felt that the fault this time was definitely not on Jacqueline
It was those people who were at fault.
If Jacqueline wain’t forced into a corner, she wouldn’t have made such a mistake.
After all, Jacqueline had always perfectly completed her tasks before, and Nina knew it very well.
Special Operations Division and admit your mistakes?
After thinking for a moment, Nina suggested to Jackie, Jackie, how about you go back to the Special Then, I’ll have Clifford find a way to get you a lighter sentence.
After all they had done a lot worse in the past.
This time, the target was just a bit different, so the punishment shouldn’t be too severe.
““Let me think about it“ Jacqueline didn’t refuse Nina immediately because she knew Nutr’s personality. If she refused right away. Nina would just keep worrying about her
“Okay, think it over. Since you’re here, let’s have fun for the next few slays. After the show ends, I’ll bring Clifford with me to accompany you to the Special Operations Division to turn yourself in. Don’t worry, Clifford is very capable. He’ll definitely handle it? Nina said confidently.
She trusted Clifford completely
Seeing this, jariparline laughed. “I didn’t expert you to be so reliable, Nina
Nina puffed her cheeks. The always been reliable! Don’t underestimate me!”
“Okay” Jacparlanc nodded.
She looked at the sky and said to

Chapter 78
“Okay, let’s find some vines to pack up the beehives first Nina replied, standing up
However, Jacqueline pushed her back down gently and said. “I go find them. You stay here and keep an eye on the beehives so the other animals in the forest don’t take them”
“Alright, then hurry up,” said Nina as she stayed behind to guard the beehives.
“Okay”
Jacqueline soon found some vines
Just as she was about to pull them down and take them back, a sudden rush of blood surged up, and she couldn’t hold it back. She coughed up a mouthful of blood, which splattered onto the nearby vines.
Upon closer look, the blood was black.
Jacqueline coughed and her body began to sway. She leaned against a tree trunk, gasping for breath. Her beautiful face was now pale, and large beads of sweat quickly formed on her forehead.
She looked incredibly weak,
It was poison.
Jacqueline had been poisoned for a long time and was now critically ill.
When the Special Operations Division sent them back to their families, they implanted controllers in the back of their necks to control their actions and prevent the “war machines” from going rogue
After killing the Shaw family and the supervisor, Jacqueline forcibly removed the controller implanted in her spine to escape the Special Operations Division’s control.
This controller was a delicate device connected to her nerves, so removing it violently without causing damage was impossible.
As a result, Jacqueline was severely weakened and almost lost her life.
She realized she had underestimated the Special Operations Division. The developers likely anticipated that the “war machines” might forcibly remove the controllers, so they mixed a highly complex neurotoxin with the controller during implantation.
The controller not only controlled their actions but also suppressed the neurotoxin
When the controller was removed, the poison would quickly spread throughout the body through the nerves.
If she had gotten the antidote in time, she might have been saved, but Jacqueline, who had been on the run for the past few days, had missed the best time to save her
Now, the only reason she could still move
move was slicer willpower. She was holding on because she wanted to see Nina one last time before she died.
While waiting for Jacqueline to return with the vines, Nina took down a wild boar trying to steal the beehive and a few wild pheasants she couldn’t identify. Bored, she played with the feathers she had pulled from the pheasants‘ tails. Then, Jacqueline finally came back with the vines.
“Jackie!” Seeing Jacqueline, Nina happily jumped off the rock and waved her arms. “You’re so slow! What took you so long to get back?” Jacqueline carried the vines in one hand and a few wild rabbits in the other. She smiled at Nina. “I also caught some wild rabbits. Let’s roast them for dinner.
“Way!” Nina’s eyes lit up. “While I was waiting for you. I caught a few wild pheasants too. Let’s roast them later!”
“Okay” Jacqueline smiled at Nina. “Let’s pack up and head back”
“Okay!” Nina reached for the vine to pack up the beehive but accidentally touched something sticky
She stopped suddenly
Seeing this, Jacqueline tilted her head and asked, “Nina, what’s wrong?”
