Capítulo 10

Captain Levi arrives, at the skyscraper, followed by the Lambert team, and the General is already waiting for them:

—Captain Levi's report.

— Sir, we failed in the mission, because when we arrived at the bunker, the survivors no longer existed, they only existed, pieces of bodies everywhere, I believe that the zombies arrived before us.

“Too bad, but that's life. - says the General trying to show sadness.

"And you, Captain Beta, something to report?"

- No sir. Beta says.

Well, he couldn't confess in front of Levi that he had his eye on the soldiers closest to him, because he suspected that his target was among the soldiers, he just wasn't completely sure who it was, he had been sent to exterminate the person who was immune to zombies, because this would generate the vaccine for free, leading to bankruptcy, and misery to the elite, as they intended to exchange the vaccine for supplies, and slave service, but if everyone was cured and there were no zombies, they would no longer have any way to use people as they saw fit, and they had his wife and children, and if he died, or gave up the task, they would murder them, he couldn't allow that. He brought with him a letter from the general's son, so that he would cover for Beta and do whatever was necessary for him to succeed in the mission.

Everyone enters the skyscraper, and Levi with Judy and Luna head to their dorm:

" What happened, Judy?"

— Someone followed me, but I couldn't see who it was, to avoid being discovered, I went to the market and took the first items I saw, ahead, to lose the person who followed me, and he thought I was after something that the sir had asked me.

— Great, we'll have to be more careful, we can't send you to your laboratory anymore, in the next few days, until we find out who's behind this. — Levi says worriedly, and then asks — Did you ask Ivan to check the aero item?

— Yes, he took it to his workshop to check, and he was supposed to give me the report that night whether or not the problem with the aero item was criminal.

“Great, now I'm sure the bunker deaths were criminally done, not zombies. says Levi, sure of what he was talking about.

"But why would anyone do that?" Luna asks.

"Maybe to cover up something they don't want us to find out." I'll find a way to go there at night.

“But Captain, the night is when the zombies are most active. Luna says worriedly.

“If I don't use any light, I can go there.

" But how do you plan to see without light?" asks Judy.

— Ivan on one of our missions found a military night vision goggle, and he omitted it from the general, I will use these goggles, to go there, you will stay with Luna in my apartment, and you will not let her out, no one will enter, when I arrives, I'll use our secret knock.

"But sir, what if they follow you?"

— If anyone manages to follow me, they won't come back alive, to tell the story, remember that I'm faster than anyone, in the air.

Someone knocks on the door, Levi takes his pistol, making a sign for Luna to hide, and for Judy to open the door, when it opens it is Ale:

“It's okay, sir, it's just Ale. says Judy, and Luna comes out of hiding.

— Sir, I came to deliver the night's ration to you and Miss Luna, already taking advantage of Judy's here, I brought the report that Ivan made.

"What about soldier, criminal, or paranoia in my head?" says Judy, curious.

— Criminal, because whoever cut the wires knew what he was doing, because he cut it so that whoever used it would lose control of the aero item, but nobody had anything against Robert, why would anyone do that? says Al.

“Because someone is trying to demoralize the captain, and it would be very clear if it happened to someone in our squadron, and knowing that he is the most agile everyone will wonder if Levi was with us that day, would that happen? Wouldn't he reach that soldier in time, thus preventing him from being killed? That's why he decided to attack someone with no enemies inside, to make it look like an accident, because if it was someone with enemies, the equipment would be investigated in more detail, but since he is someone who has no enemies, no one would suspect that the equipment was sabotaged. says Judy brightly.

— Now we just have to investigate if there are fingerprints on the equipment. Levi says.

“There are no prints, whoever did it knew what they were doing, and had studied the slightest possibility of investigation, and probably wore a glove.

"Damn it, then we'll have no way of proving he was a criminal, because no suspect, no crime."

“We can ask who was on duty that day. Luna says. “That way, we can interrogate the person and know they've entered the equipment room, as I've noticed they always have a guard in the equipment corridor.

“Good Luna, we can start there. says Judy excitedly.

— Not us, I, Ivan and Ale, we'll solve this, you two stayed here, because soldier, Judy, you were followed, and I couldn't identify who was following you, and you, Miss Luna, are too important to be hanging around.

— But Captain, I was the one who suspected that I was a criminal, it's not fair. says Judy whimpering.

“Yes, but also remember that you're the only geneticist we have. Levi says.

— It's not true, I'm a captain too. says Luna protesting.

“Yes, but you're also immune to zombies, so you can't put yourself in harm's way. says Levi Coldly.

“Okay Captain, I'll stay, but do me a favor, stop by the house where my zombie guinea pig is and check the progress. says Judy.

“Okay where this house is.

“It's the house you and your late fiancée were going to buy after the wedding.

- You…

— Sorry captain, I knew that if I needed you to go there, you would know where it is, the house and find it easily.

"Okay, I'll do my best, soldier." Now you two stay there.

"Wait, Levi. Luna says.

- What it was? Do you have any requests too? Want me to check something out for you?

“Not Captain. - Luna says, approaching him, standing on tiptoe and giving him a peck, says. "I just wanted to wish you good luck and come back safe."

Levi gets tense and looks at her, in her eyes containing himself not to continue, because he had the urge to pull her to him and give her another kiss, because he had done what he always did, before he went on a mission when she was his fiancée, but he knew he couldn't kiss her.

Because he would end up telling the whole truth, how they met in her future, the plans they had made, the house they were going to buy, the children they wanted to have, the Luna from the future she knew, she was brilliant, even though she was stubborn, she was sometimes very sweet, innocent, others, very fierce, she was a warrior and the wife he dreamed of having so much, but he was afraid to tell, and not change the future, or rather the past, when he met her, because he thought she would change the past where he would perhaps meet her, create a parallel future, in which his beloved would not die, perhaps it would be better not to meet her, the moment he met her, because if he had been in another place on the day they took her, he might have survived, to get to know each other in a future without zombies, but if you told how they met and got close, maybe Luna didn't want to change anything and ended up dead again.

"Captain, is everything all right?" Judy asks, worried.

" Of course you are, I've just been thinking about something, but we'll solve these crimes first, don't open the door to anyone, and Judy, save my rations, I won't eat now." Levi says leaving.
