The city of Ming'an, adjacent to the coastal city, has the largest port and transportation hub on the lower floors.

As a new bioenergy source, whale oil is completely different from the whale oil used in the ancient Victorian period. In the past, whale oil was obtained by boiling the subcutaneous tissue, internal organs and bones of whales, but now whale oil is a new type of energy excavated in deep-sea areas, especially in ocean canyons. Title: Deep-sea combustible, and the name "whale oil" spread.

This new type of bioenergy is not comparable to the various types of energy available in general purpose and the most common forms of electricity, but due to its own special features, high-purity whale oil is sent to the laboratory as a valuable research product.

As a special bioenergy, the output of whale oil must be very scarce, but the abnormal output of this new special energy source is abnormally high, which also leads to the rapid depreciation of whale oil, which is a new type of energy. Gradually, most of the coastal cities began to use whale oil on a large scale, and electricity, high-grade energy and whale oil were used together.

At this point, the Central Bureau sent a large number of troops to carry out a certain amount of management control and taxation along the coastal border, but even so, whale oil ships still appeared on a large scale, and more "whale oil" tycoons who mainly made whale oil profits appeared.

As usual, Ming'an City, as a high-yield whale oil production area, has convenient transportation, and large and small salvage ships will gather here.

But just a few months ago, there was a large-scale disappearance at sea, and after the Central Bureau took it seriously and tightened its control, whale oil ships became even fewer, and only sporadic steel ships could be seen moving on the sea.

A large number of soldiers gathered around the Finok docks, vigilant about what was happening at sea.

"There have been more than 400 cases of disappearances, and the police have no clue." The bearded middle-aged man pinched a phenomenon panel, his brow furrowed.

"There are more than 400 missing cases, don't you see a lot of big soldiers over there? It's certainly not going to be easy. Are you going to sea today? "The companion next to him wears a vintage cap and a thick cigar in his mouth.

It is rare for Chinese people to smoke cigars.

"Nonsense, I've stopped for a month, and if I don't go to sea again, my basic life can't be guaranteed at all!"

"Come on, Huang Ai, isn't your whale oil company running well?"

A young officer walked over from the side with a grin, raised his hand and threw over a can of beer.

The person known as Huang Ai caught it, tore open the can and poured it into his mouth: "Li Fei, you are an official who doesn't go to see your soldiers, what are you doing here?" ”

"See? What's there to see? Li Fei sneered, took out a can of the same beer from the vending machine driven by whale oil next to him, and took two sips, "Those detectives can't find out what we can't find, and we can only go to the ocean area to carry out salvage work, but do you think it's useful?" ”

It has been half a month since Li Fei came to the lower district, and there is no clue at all until the transfer order from the Central Bureau, and the Central Bureau has no news except for the initial investigation order.

"MD, I can't stand this place for another day, damn the sea breeze......"

Li Fei squeezed the beer can in his hand, raised his head and said, "Are you going to go to sea today?" ”

"That's right, if this continues, my company will go out of business soon." Huang Ai said helplessly.

"Going out of business?" Li Fei raised his eyebrows, "I remember that you weren't like this half a month ago." ”

He still remembered that half a month ago, this guy who looked like a local snake came out to greet him on behalf of the coastal forces, and that appearance was as majestic as it was, where is the current appearance of a reef that looks like it has been riddled with holes by the sea breeze and turbulence.

"Since you came, there have been more and more disappearances, and my fleet is afraid to go to sea. Originally, there was already some decline before you came, but I didn't expect it to get worse, and now I have to organize a fleet of ships, otherwise ......"

"When are you going to go?"

"Afternoon ......"

Li Fei pondered for a while.

"Don't worry, my soldiers still have a few hours to get ready, so let's set the time until six o'clock in the evening, and then we'll go out together."

"Together?" Li Ai was a little surprised, but at the same time with a faint joy.

If you go to sea with the troops of the Central Bureau, then your own safety will be guaranteed to the greatest extent!

"Yes, we'll do our best to keep you safe. But I need you to do something else. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I did a rough investigation, and all the disappearances were group disappearances, there is no doubt about it, because no crew member would suddenly disappear from the whale tanker, not the whole ship. But I've heard that disappearances have been going on for months, and I don't believe there isn't even a single survivor. You go and ask me if there is such a person. When we go out to sea, we take those people with us, we don't have a clue, we need intelligence very much. ”

"God, it's nine o'clock in the morning, how do you want me to find someone for you these few hours?" Huang Ai said with a frown.

"We'll be responsible for issuing notices, but the people here don't trust us Unit 867. You get the idea, right? ”

Huang Ai nodded: "Okay, I know, I will help you do a good job." ”

"Don't worry, assist the central force, you will be well paid."

Huang Ai shook the empty beer can in his hand and left with the man next to him.

Behind him, Li Fei's expression gradually became cold.

"Of course...... The premise is ......"

"Can you come back alive......"

Don't have a clue? No, it's impossible.

Unit 867 is not a whale oil salvage ship, they have excellent troops and facilities, although they are not as good as the 141 super force, but their own strength should not be underestimated. The fact that the Central Bureau sent them an attacking regiment instead of a regiment of engineers speaks volumes about the danger.

As early as the first day of their arrival, they discovered a large number of fish migrating in the deep sea area, and the surface of the deep sea was in a mess, and they also lost a lot of manpower under unknown strange attacks.

And Li Fei, who was very confident in himself, naturally disdained this, and quietly sent people to dive into the deep sea several times behind the steel port, but they were all in vain, except for the first and second time he saw the bright red light spots, everything else was nothing.

But they found the remains of a salvage ship, only a tiny half, covered with grotesque marks, and the engineers, after analyzing the marks in the fracture of the ship's hull, came to a ridiculous conclusion.

That's bitten off.

Biting off? What kind of creature can handle a salvage ship of more than ten tons? In short, Li Fei gradually discovered the seriousness of the matter, so he sent a small number of people to investigate the deep-sea area, and strictly controlled the coastal area. The salvage ship was released, just to see if these guys could lure that horrible thing out of the seabed. As for this afternoon, it was naturally a bait trip.

"Salvage boats?"

"No, it's not."

"The inhabitants of here?"

"Not really."

"One step further is the Central Bureau's supervision area, please go back!"

"No, I'm here for something."

There was a noise behind the steel port, Li Fei turned his head, his face was stunned, and walked over quickly.

"Where's the stinky boy! Get out of here! ”

The soldier shouted and raised his pulse rifle and jerked it at the boy who wanted to enter.

A blue light lit up in the boy's eyes, and the huge metal arm slammed into the pulse rifle.

"Click......"

The sound of metal twisting violently, the heavy pulse rifle being crushed inch by inch, twisted and crumpled into a ball of scrap metal.

"What are you doing!"

Li Fei crossed the two guards and looked at the young man who wanted to come in.

This is a very impressive person.

Why do you say that, because of his right arm.

There shouldn't be a normal person with a large robotic arm that hangs below the knee, and this thing doesn't look like an ordinary commodity at all, let alone a ball of "scrap metal" that he is still pinching at the moment.

Li Fei was naturally more perceptive than the two soldiers, and when he saw the hint of banter in the eyes of the young black-haired boy in front of him, he probably knew who this guy was.

Thinking of this, he reached forward with a smile on his face: "Pale Fang? ”

The brunette narrowed his eyes and gave up wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble.

"It's me. Hello, Li Fei. ”

"Call by name! You ......" The soldiers around him raised their eyebrows and were about to scold, but Li Fei stopped them.

"I've heard of you, arbitrator. Please come in, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

A strange light flashed in the arbitrator's eyes, and he raised the heavy mechanical arm in his right hand, knocked away the two soldiers, and exchanged the pulse rifle in his hand that had completely turned into scrap metal to the soldier who was stunned at the moment, and followed behind Li Fei.

Arbitration...... Special Executive Guys......

I heard a week ago that the above was going to send this guy down, but I didn't expect this guy to arrive a week later.

In this way, it is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

The arbitrator surveyed his surroundings and looked at the soldiers with no joy in his eyes.

Another bunch of garbage soldiers.

Following Li Fei into a spacious office room, he raised his right arm and projected a high-precision full-body portrait modeling in his palm.

"Your girlfriend?"

Li Fei pinched a can of beer and handed it to him, the arbitrator frowned slightly, the projection in his palm suddenly disappeared, and he took the canned beer handed over by the other party.

"It's not."

……

The middle level, the headquarters of the recovery force, in a spacious corridor.

"Oh my God, the Night Temple! This is the first AI thought box ever to be captured! How can you ......"

"Let me correct you, it's a data box, this thing shouldn't be called a thought box." Noahsa, a young girl with vitality, wears a gray-black tight-fitting power armor and throws the metal disk in her hand. "Who told you not to go with me, Lord Yemu asked you to go by name!"

Beside her, a girl with messy hair was begging.

Ye Mu turned around as he paced, rolling his eyes widely: "This thing can't be given to you for the time being, but I'll let you study it after I'm done dealing with things." ”

Hearing Ye Mu's words, the pale-haired girl pounced on Ye Mu in an instant, her cheeks rubbing against her exoskeleton.

"Ahh Night Temple! I really...... I really am...... You've been so good to me!! To repay you for your kindness! Let Noi ...... tonight"

"Poof!!

With a loud bang, Ye Mu retracted his long legs, and there was a blue-headed girl embedded in the wall.

"Uh...... If you don't die, you won't die......" Noaha twitched the corners of her mouth, ignoring her and keeping up with Yemu's pace.

The members of the recovery force who came and went around him also seemed to be surprised, and the two cleaning robots ran over, ripped the blue girl off the wall with a snap, and skillfully put it into the mechanical stretcher to be carried away.

"Phew! Get the hell out of here! Noi struggled angrily, knocked down the two robots with one punch and kick, and chased after Yemu quickly: "Wait for me! Night Temple~~"

"Good morning, Night Temple!"

"Early."

Along the way, there were girls from the recovery troops who kept greeting Yemu, and the girl responded casually and sat in the front of the central control room.

"09, report on the urgent needs of this time of vacation." Ye Mu picked up a can of Coke, gently pulled it open with his fingerclaws, and poured it down.

"Okay, Commander."

A screen lit up in front of him, flashing dense data on it, and Ye Mu swept it directly.

"Roughly understood. Didn't there be a meeting over there? ”

"The meeting is currently in progress, and you will be in the room in three minutes, and you will still have a chance to participate."

Yemu scratched his cheek.

"Whew...... Doesn't seem like there's anything to participate in? Forget it, let's go to Cheap Daddy. ”

With that, she stood up and inserted the data box in her hand and the electronic touch on the back of her head into the central control system.

"Night, I'll leave it to you. Remember what was discussed yesterday and give this guy a wonderful body. ”

"I know, I know, you can go with confidence."

The voice of the night sounded in his head, and Ye Mu's electronic touch shook and was about to pull away.

"Eh, when will the Shadow Society gang arrive?"

"Probably one day."

The various transfers of the Shadow Society were very troublesome and troublesome, and Ye Mu was unwilling to wait, so he naturally returned to the headquarters of the recovery force early.

"Got it."

Ye Mu then took off the electronic touch and withdrew it to the back of his head, and walked out of the central control room.

Conference room.

In the large and spacious conference room, Supreme Archon Gu Beiyu sat on the chairman, his hands crossed the tip of his nose, contempt for the squabbling executives below.

"The situation in the neighbouring countries is very dire! The most important thing now is to build good relations between the two countries! ”

"What do you mean by severe? Let those big-headed soldiers on the border restrain a little, and still talk about these? ”

"If you want me to say, shouldn't the affairs of the lower districts be taken seriously? We have lost 8% of our whale oil production in just one month, which is unacceptable! ”

"Wouldn't that kind of thing be left to the recovery force to do? What to put here to discuss? ”

"What? That little girl? Don't be kidding, I even doubt ......"

Boom!

A loud bang came from the chairman, and everyone suddenly fell silent, and the few people who were arguing lowered their heads one after another.

"Hmph, let's not say a word, the commander of the recovery force hasn't come yet."

The man in the heavy power armor spoke, looking slightly at Gu Beiyu of the chairman.

Pei Luo.

The bigwigs of Unit 141 are naturally qualified to participate in the meeting.

Gu Beiyu's superiority is indeed very eager, and the people below are not willing to ask themselves for advice on the current national issues at all, and they are discussing them on their own. But Gu Beiyu is not in a hurry, in his eyes, there are means to rectify these guys. Now it's just a routine meeting, whatever you want.

He pondered for a while and said, "The border issue is entrusted to Unit 141. No problem, Pei Luo...... Checkmate? ”

The calm man nodded: "Ordered." ”

Gu Beiyu didn't ask for the opinions of the others again, and continued: "Do you have any good opinions about the matter of whale oil in the lower area? ”

"Didn't the Special Enforcement Department shoot a conquest class?"

"It's just a manpower, obviously not enough. Li Fei has asked for help many times. ”

"What about the Recycling Force?"

"Hey, that troop ......"

At this moment, the metal door suddenly opened, and a tall figure walked in.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I just arrived in the upper floor in the early hours of the morning. Today's regular meeting forgot ......"
