Chapter 57

In the 24 hours after the "Black Pearl Incident", the official death toll has reached nearly 300, and the number of missing people has increased to more than 500.

As the capital of the Human Federation, there has not been such a large-scale casualty in nearly a hundred years, the people panicked, the Congress was shaken, and the president was furious, and Secretary of State Hobart was ordered to go to the Black Pearl Space Harbor in person to thoroughly investigate the cause of the accident.

Hobert took a shuttle to Black Pearl Space Harbor the day after the incident, and convened the first emergency meeting in the temporary headquarters set up in Terminal 6. In addition to government officials such as the director of the transportation bureau, the police chief, and the director of the Information Security Center, the participants also included the vice president of the San Martin Hospital, who is in charge of medical care, and the acting head of the San Martin Research Center, Mu, who was involved in the stolen drugs in the case.

"Let's give you a briefing." In the conference room, Hobert's expression was grim, his fingers tapped on the table, and said, "Remind me that the president will be observing this meeting in real time at the 'Iron Wings', please try to be concise and to the point, don't waste his time." ”

Located in the heart of the military and political center of the planet Dunkel, the "Iron Wing" is a giant structure shaped like an eagle with its wings spread out, and it is also the highest military command center of the Federation. Although the president is the supreme commander of the federal army, he usually works in the official residence, and his appearance in the "iron wing" indicates that the military warning level of this accident has been relatively high.

When the participants heard that the president was in attendance, their expressions could not help but become solemn. The police chief coughed dryly and said, "I'll give a briefing." He briefly described the number of casualties and damage in the accident, as well as the progress of the investigation into the cause of the accident, and finally said: "We have done a DNA comparison of the seven suspects found by Major Jin Xuan of Aston University, and determined that they are all federal veterans, including one in the Navy, two in the Army, and four in the Expeditionary Army. In the past decade, four of them have been involved in terrorist incidents and are wanted at the federal level, and one has spent eight years in prison for manslaughter and was released three years ago. ”

Hobert frowned, knocked on the table, and looked at the director of the transportation bureau, "Is there anything to explain?" ”

The director of the transportation bureau was sweating profusely: "Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for a wanted criminal to pass through the port security check, let alone the port, and he will be found at the shuttle ferry station." There are also those who have been released from prison, and there will be hints in the risk assessment. But on the day of the incident, our ticket system was hacked into and the database was faulty, so their fake identities were not identified. ”

Hobart didn't speak this time, only swept his gaze to the director of the information center. The director's face turned pale, and he said: "It is our dereliction of duty to be invaded by hackers, and at present, the technical staff are still analyzing the data, hoping to track down the location of the hacker, but it will take time." ”

"Can you be sure that the hackers and mercenaries are a group?"

"Yes."

Hobert frowned and pondered, and after a while, he looked at the director of St. Martin's Hospital: "How is the situation of the captured mercenary now?" ”

"Still in intensive care." "He suffered severe injuries to his chest cavity and skull, and there was a delay in the operation, which caused inflammation of his internal organs. Our doctor has done a remedy, and if there are no accidents in the next 48 hours, he should be able to wake up in two weeks. ”

The only one who is alive is almost dead...... Hobert's face was a little ugly, and he paused: "Have you checked the resumes of these seven people?" Did you have any bad deeds during your service, or were you dissatisfied with your superiors, dissatisfied with the Union? ”

"There are more or less violations, but there is no obvious problem." The police chief said, "The possibility of self-directed crimes, or revenge on society, can be ruled out, they should be instigated." We have submitted applications to the Navy, Army and Expeditionary Forces for their assistance in investigating the details of these seven individuals. Within a few days, it should be possible to trace their relatives and friends, as well as those who have recently been in contact with them. ”

"I'll say hello to the military later and ask them to help with it as soon as possible." Hobert said, and then asked the director of St. Martin's Hospital, "The four people they kidnapped are all interns at your hospital?" ”

"No, it's just a practician, a freshman at Aston University School of Medicine." The dean gestured to Mu next to him □, "Dean Mu's students." ”

"Yes, three of them were only slightly injured and escaped safely, and the police and I only arrived at the scene of the incident in time after receiving their call." Mu said: "The remaining one is seriously injured, has lost too much blood, and is still in a coma, I think it is not suitable to make a confession in the short term." ”

Hobert nodded, and pulled out two pictures to project on the desk: "This is the incubator found at the scene, and it is said that it is also the target of the mercenary group this time." I now wonder what is inside? He looked at Mu, "The box has the logo of the St. Martin Research Center, you are the agent appointed by Ms. Saiana, I hope you don't hide the truth from the police." Prior to the meeting, he had received an email from the police chief stating that the St. Martin's Research Centre was reluctant to disclose the use of the drug to the police on the grounds of "trade secrets".

Mu nodded and said, "Yes, I am a visiting scientist at the St. Martin Research Center, and Teacher Saiyana is unable to come to the scene in person due to physical reasons, so I am authorized to be her agent." Three months ago, a contagious skin disease broke out on a planet in the constellation Ceratus, and one-fifth of the employees of a local mining company were infected, so the company commissioned our center to develop a vaccine for them, and this is the first trial version. Due to commercial confidentiality, we cannot disclose the exact ingredients of the potions, sorry. ”

"We're in the process of contacting the mining company in Senqin to ask them to waive their commercial non-disclosure agreement." The police chief interjected.

Hobert ignored him, and his deep gaze stared at Mu's eyes, as if to see him through: "Dean Mu, are you saying that a top mercenary group did not hesitate to destroy one-fifth of the space harbor, just for this vaccine against a certain planetary skin disease in the constellation Xianqin?" ”

Mu nodded quietly and said, "I don't know the purpose of the mercenary, and the situation of the medicine is like this. ”

"It's not logical." "May I doubt that the St. Martin's Research Center is hiding something from the government?" ”

"Not really." Mu denied it, "All of our research projects are filed with the government, and every grant and expense is reported to the Federal Tax Service, if His Excellency the Secretary of State has any doubts, just investigate." ”

"I heard you were there at the time." Hobart asked, "The police said that the incubator at the scene was opened, and all the drugs in it were evaporated, but the combination lock was not broken, do you have anything to explain?" ”

Mu was still expressionless: "This vaccine will deteriorate and volatilize quickly at room temperature, otherwise there is no need to store it in an incubator, as for what will be opened in the box, I think this is the responsibility of the police." ”

"Okay." Hobert didn't chase after him, but roughly sorted out the briefing and information, and said, "So can the preliminary conclusion of the case be considered like this - this accident was not an accident caused by the delay of the take-off and landing system, but an organized and premeditated terrorist attack, and the ultimate goal of the mercenaries is a batch of new vaccines against the skin disease of the Cepsian?" ”

Silent, Hobert glanced at the audience, and the police chief nodded and said, "As far as the information we have so far, it can only be like this." ”

"We are still analyzing the data, and we believe that in a day or two we will be able to trace the clues left by the hackers, and then we should get new evidence," said the director of the information center. ”

The director of St. Martin's Hospital said: "We will pay close attention to the situation of the suspect and try to revive him as soon as possible. ”

Hobert nodded: "Okay, that's all for this meeting, it's hard work." ”

Everyone stood up and left, and Hobert closed the door to the conference room, opened his brain, and a three-dimensional projection of Jin Zhe appeared beside him.

His Excellency the President was sitting in the office of the "Iron Wing", with a high-precision star field map behind him, and he said with a calm face: "The latest report of NTU has been sent to you, give you three minutes, and we will talk after reading it." ”

NTU is the abbreviation of "NavyTactical Unit", that is, "Naval Mobile Unit", which was subordinate to the Navy at the beginning of its establishment, and later expanded its naval strength to the interstellar, and NTU was assigned to the Expeditionary Force, which carried out some complex and dangerous secret missions within the galaxy. Thirteen years ago, when the old president came to power, NTU officially separated from the Expeditionary Army and came under the direct jurisdiction of the president, and since then, it has gradually become a complex military system integrating internal investigation, counter-espionage, anti-terrorism and other functions.

It is also considered the cradle of federal presidents, as both former and current presidents have served in NTU.

Three minutes later, Hobert returned to the call: "There is no doubt that the 'Freedom Guide' organization has been real for two hundred years, but whether the St. Martin's Research Center has anything to do with it, I think it is debatable. ”

Jin Zhe said: "If it is only for a skin disease vaccine, it is impossible for the mercenary group to directly attack a medium-sized civilian port, the St. Martin Research Center must be hiding something, NTU noticed them as early as ten years ago, and it is definitely not groundless to draw such a conclusion." ”

"Mu is just a guest scientist, and I think this matter still has to put pressure on Saiana." "This woman is not easy to deal with, she has too much prestige, students and patients are all over the federal level, and even the Congress has her supporters. She has been proposing to Congress for 20 years to repeal the Wizard Protection Act. Putting pressure on her is a very difficult thing to do. ”

"I'll figure out how to do this, and we can also think about it from another direction." Jin Zhe's expression was serious, and he said: "Eight hundred casualties, there has never been such a big evil in the capital star in more than a hundred years, this is simply an enemy of the federal government, what kind of background can plan such a big terrorist attack?" ”

Hobert frowned and was silent, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, mercenary groups and hackers are just the tip of the iceberg. I think we should sort out all the opposition forces in the galaxy, and judging from the current open terrorist groups, there are not many that can make such a big deal. ”

"You can be a little more open-minded." Jin Zhe said gloomily, "Not only the opposition forces, but also the internal opposition, as well as our ambitious subordinates......"

"You mean, the opposition and the Voyage Army?" Hobert had a headache and rubbed his thumb on his temples, "Well, things are getting more complicated. ”

"So there are a few things that must be figured out, no matter how big it takes." "The purpose of the potion and the location of the real buyer, the mercenary's liaison, the hacker's location. There is also the illegal trade of the St. Martin Research Center in private......"

"Everything else is easy to do, but the St. Martin Research Center, we can't force a reputable non-profit peace organization to bow to the government, we are a democratic federation, golden ruts, freedom, democracy and human rights are the cornerstones of our regime." "It's not the same as the military," Hobert reminded. ”

"Yes, freedom, democracy and human rights, I am the president, and I must defend the freedom, democracy and human rights of the citizens." Jin Zhe rolled his eyes, "So for this reason, I have to make some people very unfree, very undemocratic, and very unhuman!" ”

Hobert also began to roll his eyes: "Your Excellency, please pay attention to your words, you don't want to be re-elected if you hear these words." ”

"If you know that I said this, you can kill yourself."

Hobert sighed: "Jin Zhe, our government has been weak for more than 30 years, and you have only been in power for a short time, so it is not appropriate to be overly tough." ”

"I will be in control, but I can't tolerate some people riding on the head of the government and throwing wild, disregarding the personal safety of citizens as nothing! And those damn peace organizations, what St. Martin's Research Center and the like, are all afraid that the world will not be chaotic! Jin Zhe knocked on the table, paused, and smiled, "And I really don't want to see that bastard Jin Xuan doing fucking performance art at the door of my mansion and satirizing my weakness." ”

"He's out of the circle." Hobert also smiled, "For most of the past six months, he has been like a different person, a teacher or something, it's so terrifying, I still can't adapt to the way he wears normal clothes, it's terrible!" ”

"Well, I often blow up my hair." Jin Zhe said, "Speaking of which, where is he?" Why didn't you come to the meeting? ”

"His little boyfriend has been in a coma for several hours, and he has been staying in front of the hospital bed."

"Does he still have me as a big brother in his eyes, and is there any priority?" Jin Zhe said angrily, "He's not a doctor, what can he do there?" ”

"This is love, Jin Zhe, you don't understand."

"Damn, I didn't see you guarding your wife when she gave birth, is he the only one who is a love saint?"

“…… If it weren't for you, how could I not even be able to catch up with the birth of my son? You old rascal! Speaking of this, the green tendons on Hobert's forehead burst out, "I have been scolded by my wife for more than ten years for this, and my husband is ruined in the hands of you damn old bachelor!" ”

"You've got a yarn husband! Your husband has been eaten by dogs since you squatted downstairs in the girls' dormitory and played the guitar all night! ”

“…… Someday you will be punished, you ruthless, shameless and vexatious old bachelor! Hobert said, "I won't tell you, I have to go see Jin Xuan and his little boyfriend." ”

"Keep your eyes open and take a good look." Jin Zhe reminded, "I think Jin Xuan may know what Lu Dao is, otherwise he wouldn't have killed six mercenaries at once, he is not such a reckless person." His actions were not like to save people, but like to kill people. ”

"You don't even suspect your own brother, and I feel sorry for you." Hobert gave a thumbs up to the bottom with a "disdainful" gesture, "though I think you're right." ”

"Hey, you've always been my echo worm, don't hide your lack of opinion."

"Can I swear?"

"Deduct your bonus, deduct your election sponsorship." Jin Zhe directly withdrew from the call, "And I won't wait to listen to it, see you again." ”

Hobert was accustomed to His Excellency the President's shamelessness, and his blood pressure was still normal after arguing for a long time, but his mood was a little lighter than when he had just finished the meeting, he turned off his brain and walked to the temporary medical center in Terminal 4.

In a single ward enclosed with soundproofing materials, Jin Xuan sat in front of the bed and guarded the unconscious Wu Chenghe, the injury on his leg was not serious, it did not hurt the nerves and blood vessels, and it only took a while to recover, but his mental trauma was very serious, even if he used Mu's special medicine, Siyun was still chaotic.

There was a symbolic knock on the door, and Jin Xuan walked in without waiting for Mu to respond. Seeing that a certain annoying ability and the big lion he hated were sitting in a proper manner, Mu's face looked a little better, and said, "You can rest for an hour or two, he won't wake up for the time being." ”

"I'm not tired." Jin Xuan gave way to the bedside seat, "He doesn't seem to be getting better." ”

"He's in adulthood, and he's going to recover slowly." Mu said, "However, the Icaru Illusory Flyer Guide has very good self-healing powers, and the trauma stimulates their brain development and makes them stronger." As long as he can carry this hurdle, his consciousness will be greatly improved in adulthood. ”

Jin Xuan remembered that when he was killed in the asteroid, Wu Chenghe seemed to have mentioned that he felt stronger after the trauma of his mind healed, and it was really not his delusion.

"He can carry it, right?" Despite this, Jin Xuan was still a little worried.

Mu wrinkled and glanced at him: "Am I not standing here?" ”

Jin Xuan is so big that he is not afraid of the earth, he doesn't know what Lu Dao is for, but he has a natural awe of Mu, and said, "I just care." ”

Mu took out a transparent medicine from the medical bag he carried, put it on the injection gun and pushed Wu Chenghe's jugular vein, and said, "Inject every four hours, he should wake up after six times, don't worry." After a pause, he suddenly asked, "How did you find him?" ”

Jin Xuan thought for a moment and said, "I happened to be nearby when he had his first period, and I was 100% compatible with him." ”

Mu looked at him in surprise: "You didn't mark him?" ”

"I'm not a beast." Jin Xuan said, "I am a human being, and I can control myself. ”

Mu was immediately impressed by Jin Xuan's character, a Barbary lion with the ability to control himself from estrus at the first menarche of a 100% compatible guide, either because of genetic mutation, or because he was a true love saint.

His quantum beast isn't actually a Barbary lion, but a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, right?

"Honestly, did you stay at Aston University to guard him?" Mu asked, "I heard that you were originally going to join the army, and your mentor seems to want to recommend you to the NTU, which happens to be your brother's territory." ”

"Yes." Jin Xuan felt the need to brush his favorability in front of his old man, "He was able to be sent to Aston University as a commission trainee, which is also the result of our joint operation." ”

"So that's the case, no wonder ......" Mu Shuang frowned, seemed to have a much better impression of him, and the corners of his mouth even hooked up a faint smile that was almost invisible: "I guess Commander Hannibal must be very angry about this, right?" ”

“…… Somewhat. Jin Xuan didn't know why he asked, but he still nodded

"I kind of understand why he's so oriented towards you." Mu looked at Wu Chenghe thoughtfully, then at him, and said, "But it's still hard for me to accept." ”

Jin Xuan inexplicably felt that the person standing in front of him was not Wu Chenghe's dean, but his mother-in-law.

In other words, what can't he accept when we fall in love? Jin Xuan couldn't help but think of Jin Zhe again, sure enough, the fifty-year-old old bachelor was a distorted existence.

There was a knock on the door again, and this time it was Mr. Hobart who came in, and when he saw Mu inside, he bowed gracefully: "Hello Dean, thank you for your timely rescue, and the president is very grateful for getting Mr. Wu out of danger safely." ”

Mu's eyes narrowed: "He's my student, this is what I should do." He glanced at Jin Xuan suspiciously. Jin Xuan explained: "Wu Chenghe once saved my life in Gabriel, and my brother is very grateful and ...... Like him. ”

"I've heard about that." Mu's expression was still a little unhappy, listening to Hobert's tone, the president's concern for Wu Chenghe was probably not just because he saved Jin Xuan, but because ...... Damn it! He has a boyfriend, and he only knows about it now!

"It's such an unfortunate thing to happen." Hobert walked to the bed and looked at the unconscious Wu Chenghe, with a distressed expression on his face, "This kid is just too kind, he was captured by mercenaries for surgery, and he also saved the Baron brothers and Miss Lanser." Both Mr. Secretary of Defense and General Lancer were very grateful to him, who was supposed to come to visit, but was stopped by the President and told him to recuperate. ”

Mu didn't have a dime of affection for anyone involved in the military and politics, and said coldly: "He doesn't need to be thanked, as long as the Minister of Defense and Lancer will take care of their children." ”

"Oh." Hobert found that he cared more about Wu Chenghe than a dean cared about students, and couldn't help but be a little strange, "Mr. Dean cares about Xiao Wu very much." ”

"Blessings to the Tobaron brothers and Miss Lanther."

Hobert remembered the complaint and the dinner that the president specially arranged for Wu Chenghe and the Minister of Defense, and said, "Then I won't bother, and when Mr. Wu is transferred to the ground hospital, Mr. President will come to visit him in person." ”

No one dared to refute the president's face, and Mu could only acquiesce.

The author has something to say: in the next chapter, the president and the dean meet, don't be in a hurry...... Actually, I'm also in a hurry to kill haha......ha

The dean is completely the mother-in-law's sense of déjà vu, haha......ha Do you want to kill Matt swollen?!
