The explosion in the tent area caused panic in the camp, and many people shouted to return to their shelters, and there were even signs of collision with the soldiers on duty.

Fortunately, Wang Zhaowu was quite decisive, and quickly rushed to the elevator entrance with the soldiers in the camp to support, and forcibly suppressed the momentum of snatching the elevator by means of machine gun strafing into the air, and controlled the situation with strong means.

As the acting director, Xu Lu was not idle, and gradually stabilized the mood of the residents with her affinity and good image in the hearts of the residents of the shelter.

At the same time, the investigation into the cause of the explosion is also in full swing.

Soon, a survey result was placed on Jiang Chen's table.

21 people were injured, 5 were killed, and 17 tents were damaged.

The center of the explosion was very close to Academician Qin's tent, only two or three meters away. Farther away, soldiers recovered the fragments of a drone. Based on these clues, it can be speculated that someone should have operated a drone carrying the bomb to fly in front of Academician Qin's tent, and then remotely detonated the bomb.

It was clearly a murder, and the killer was from outside the camp!

But why?

Jiang Chen closed his eyes tightly and leaned back in his office chair in thought.

He really couldn't figure out what there was about an old man who was dying of death worthy of the envy of others, and he was also an old man who had just come out of the shelter.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and he took out the black metal ball that Academician Qin had given him from the storage space.

"Is it because of this?"

Obviously not to snatch this thing from the bomb. Someone wants to destroy the coordinates of the communication with Zheng He? Of course, this is only a possibility. There is also a possibility that from the identity of Academician Qin, it may be that someone wants to get rid of the experimenter of 027 Vault.

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

Then. There was a soft knock at the office door.

Throwing the "golden apple" into the storage space, Jiang Chen said casually. "Please come in. ”

Pushing open the door, Xu Lu walked in.

"Residents' sentiment has also stabilized. New tents and household items have also been distributed to those who have suffered damage, while those who have been seriously injured have been temporarily transported to shelters for treatment. ”

"Good, you handled it well. Jiang Chen nodded in affirmation of her work.

Xu Lu smiled modestly and stood there waiting for Jiang Chen's further instructions.

"Where is that guy Wang Zhaowu now?"

"You're personally leading a patrol, do you need me to get him?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, "No need." You can talk to him for me, and don't be too nervous. I don't blame him for this, after all, no one can think of using a drone to infiltrate the camp and then detonate a bomb. But I hope the same thing doesn't happen again. ”

"Okay. Xu Lu nodded. Turned around and left the office and gently closed the door.

Leaning back in his chair again, Jiang Chen turned his back to the ceiling and closed his eyes, sorting out the chaotic clues in his mind.

To be honest, just a few inconsequential Vault dwellers died was far more than enough for him to bother with it. What really made Jiang Chen feel uneasy was the feeling of being kept in the dark.

Someone had killed someone in his territory, and with such unguardable means, but he had no idea what the perpetrator's motives were for.

Two possibilities. One is to destroy the golden apple, and the other is to kill Academician Qin

Wait a minute!

Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and he realized that he seemed to have entered some kind of misunderstanding.

Whoever the killer is, he must know one thing clearly. That is, the shelter has been opened, and Academician Qin has moved from the shelter to the surface. It's not hard to know this, Camp 27 has only just been built. It's not as tightly guarded as the Fish Bone Base, it only requires a drone to hang in mid-air. You can get a clear picture of the situation in the camp.

As for who it is, it has been plotting Vault 027 since the beginning. And as if the prophet knew it would open in the near future, the answer was already forthcoming.

Lin Chaoen, and the people of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce.

Considering the mission record obtained from the EP, Jiang Chen could preliminarily speculate that the Crimson Chamber of Commerce should only be regarded as an accomplice, doing things for Lin Chaoen for the recipe of that "good time".

In this way, it was Lin Chaoen who carried out this explosion!

But what is the motive?

At that moment, a word flashed through his mind.

Evolve!

Jiang Chen still remembered what Academician Qin had said to him, about the three evolutionary directions of civilization, and the inevitability of the new human being exporting the form of civilization to the old human race. Originally, Jiang Chen hadn't taken what he said seriously, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen now.

Could it be that there is some connection between these two things?

"Robots, do cyborgs represent the supreme?" Jiang Chen muttered to himself.

At this moment, the indicator light on the corner of the table suddenly flashed.

Seeing a phone call, Jiang Chen stretched out his hand and clicked on the corner of the table, and a hologram was projected in front of him, mapping Cheng Weiguo's avatar.

"Boss, the location you designated to explore has already been scouted. After seeing Jiang Chen, Cheng Weiguo reported in a deep voice.

"Oh? ”

"A group of survivors was found, but it may not have been. This is an image taken from a high altitude," Cheng Weiguo said, passing a video frame to Jiang Chen.

It was a video shot from an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and the aerial photography was completed by the Yunzhi-51.

The target location is an office building. Due to its proximity to the city center, the building was greatly affected by the high temperatures generated by the blast wave of the nuclear explosion, and there was nothing to tell from the charred black exterior. However, judging by the sentry machine guns displayed at the top of the building, this should not be a borderland.

Immediately after that, the helicopter dropped in altitude. The pilot presumably tried to get closer to see if there were any survivors, but were soon chased away by anti-aircraft machine guns hidden in the bunker. The screen shook violently, and then the helicopter began to reverse.

Because no instructions were given to attack, the gunners did not return fire with a Type 50 electromagnetic gun.

"Is there anyone there?" Jiang Chen asked with a frown.

"It's not clear," Cheng Weiguo's expression was helpless, "but all the survivor gathering points with a little ability will be equipped with life signal shielding equipment, and there is no trace of human activity from the outside." But since there are so many sentinel machine guns guarding there, it shouldn't be that no one lives. ”

"You send a couple of drones to keep an eye on them, and report to me as soon as there's a situation. Also, if you don't have anything else to do with sending some more people to Camp 27, you can go and get busy first. ”

"Yes!" Cheng Weiguo gave a military salute and then ended the communication.

Turning off the screen, Jiang Chen leaned back in his chair and sighed.

"Ma, what's the matter. ”

Suddenly, Jiang Chen jumped out of his chair and left the office

Early the next morning, Jiang Chen found Wang Zhaowu and instructed him to take protective measures against drones, such as setting up drone detection radars in the camp and placing EMP traps.

After giving these orders, Jiang Chen went straight back to the fish bone base.

It's close to the middle of March, and if nothing else, things on this side of the world should be a bit of an eyebrow.

It's been more than a month, and it's better to solve the problem on the Panu Islands as soon as possible. The development of the present side has temporarily fallen into a bottleneck, and only by obtaining a reliable base can it be convenient for him to explode black technology without any scruples.

After explaining to Sun Jiao that he was going to leave for a few days, Jiang Chen took the batch of munitions that had just been transported from the sixth block, and then traveled back to the present world. (To be continued.) )
