085 Hohenheim's conspiracy theories
Ever since Dr. Hohenheim of the Moore Chamber of Commerce was aboard the Osiris, Lynn had to undergo a physical examination every few minutes. Lin Ao grew up in a poor area of West Asia since he was a child, and the physical examination was relatively new to him. At first, he was happy to accept it, but after two or three times, he got tired of it.
As soon as Lin Ao finished the physical examination, he complained to Dr. Hohenheim: "Doctor, I've had several physical examinations, so I don't need to be so frequent, right?" ”
"Huh? You what? ”
Dr. Hohenheim was intently looking at Lynn's physical examination and didn't hear anything about him.
"Me, I don't have to have so many physical examinations in the future, right? Have you noticed any changes in my physical examinations? ”
"No Sakura"
"Look! Doctor, it's okay for you to care about my physical condition, but don't do it so often, okay? I'm tired of working on so many projects every time. ”
Dr. Hohenheim scratched his head, "Well, yours is right..."
Lin Ao took off the patch on his body to measure his heartbeat, and asked a little uneasily: "Doctor, you still haven't told me why you want me to have a physical examination?" Is there really any danger in me driving the No. 2 machine? ”
"No, no, no, I developed the No. 2 machine, and I promise it won't happen. Alas... I don't come out with a reason, but my gut tells me what the physical examination might find, and I'm someone who likes anyone who sets out to do it beforehand... Since you feel annoyed, in the future, we will check the school once every half a month or even once a month."
"Are you going to be on the Osiris for a long time?" Lin Ao asked.
"I'm not allowed... Although nominally I'm still an employee of the Moore Chamber of Commerce, I really don't really want to go back. ”
"Why?"
Hohenheim tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a moment: "It's okay to tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone else." ”
"I promise."
"You know that it was HER who first developed humanoid weapons, right? But in fact, 5 years before the HER Eagle appeared in the Battle of Carthage, the Moore Chamber of Commerce was secretly developing the Ten Swords No. 1 machine. ”
"5 years ago? So early? ”
"That's right, and we got the design drawings when we started manufacturing it five years ago, and the Minmore Chamber of Commerce has been working on the humanoid weapon project for a long time. But it was not easy to make a practical humanoid weapon, and many drawings were overturned and restarted, and we struggled for a long time and suffered a lot before we gradually mastered the trick. But just when the No. 1 machine was almost completed, Thomas, the president of the Moore Chamber of Commerce, suddenly stopped the development of the No. 1 machine. Let's start making laser weapons for Unit 1 instead. It was only after that HER's Eagle Pose appeared. ”
"Really? You started working on laser weapons before the Eagle appeared? ”
"Judging by the time, it was so, but what surprised me was the machine gun carried by the Eagle Yang. We've also looked into it, and we've been called to stop when it's almost finished. So I suspect..."
"Suspect what?"
"It is suspected that the Moore Chamber of Commerce has sold our technology for the development of humanoid weapons to the HER, because our development work is top secret, and the people who can do it are definitely the top of the Moore Chamber of Commerce."
"Really!? Are you sure? Lin Ao found it incredulous. If Dr. Hohenheim's is true, then the Moore Chamber of Commerce is an accomplice or even a driving force behind this war.
"I'm not sure, just skeptical. I and some of the avoidance began to try to investigate, but we found nothing. It didn't take long for the development of several other bodies in the Ten Swords series to begin development, and I didn't have much time to think about anything else.
However, unlike the No. 1 aircraft, from the beginning of its development, Chairman Thomas demanded that the cockpit of the aircraft be designed with young people around 20 years old as a reference object, and also asked us to develop an identity verification system that prohibits people of other ages from flying these aircraft. Humanoid weapons are just weapons, is it necessary to do so? The other researchers just thought it was strange, but I thought there was some purpose behind this, President Thomas. ”
Hornheim's these, in fact, are conspiracy theories, there is no evidence, only speculation. But this is very attractive to a boy of Lin Ao's age, he listens very attentively, and this concentration is about to ask questions.
"But Doctor, if the Moore Chamber of Commerce is really selling its technology. So why not sell the technology of laser weapons as well? Now, in addition to the Ten Sword Machine, it seems that the only body that can use laser weapons is Sergeant Anton's body. But his laser weapon doesn't seem to be the same as mine. ”
This question stopped Dr. Hohenheim, and he didn't know for a moment that he couldn't find a convincing reason, so he could only make up a set of words: "Maybe HER didn't buy it after he got our technology, and President Thomas didn't sell it to HER in order to prove that his technology was advanced enough." And he also gave his own mechs to other forces, so that everyone could rush to buy our technology and make better war profits. ”
"But why send it? Since you want to sell technology, wouldn't it be nice to show it? Aren't you afraid that the technology will be cracked when you send it out? ”
“emmm… I don't know that many of President Thomas's actions in the last year have been unexpected. I guess the purpose of his mechage has something to do with his ability to limit the age of the pilot, so that the various forces can choose the most suitable person to help him accomplish some... Test something. ”
"You don't understand this, just for testing, isn't it okay for the Moore Chamber of Commerce to find experimenters by itself? You can't afford to go through such a lot of trouble. ”
Lin Ao's inferences stunned Hohenheim, his conspiracy theories were only with a few people, and most of those people were willing to believe him. It was the first time he had encountered Lin Ao like this, and he didn't know how to come up with convincing words for a while, so he could only smuggle up: "I also suggested to Thomas to find an experimenter, but that was after he suddenly transported the body I participated in the development to various forces... Thomas only told me to work hard and not ask so much, but I just couldn't help asking, so I'm now suspended indefinitely. ”
"So you're so much, you're just having a conflict with your boss..."
Hearing Lin Ao's this, Hohenheim was a little distracted: "No! I'm really worried about the bodies of you Ten Swords Pilots, I don't know what Thomas is thinking, but I'll definitely find a way to keep you safe. Okay, you go and call the driver of the No. 3 plane, and I'll do a medical examination on him as well. ”
Lin Ao saw that he couldn't talk anymore, and he was about to leave, but he didn't expect that Sister Jessica, a communications soldier who had been staying on the bridge, suddenly came in, and she was very happy:
"Doctor, we were contacted by the Moore Chamber of Commerce just now, and they are willing to wait in the universe for the arrival of the Osiris. At that time, we will strengthen the equipment of the No. 2 and No. 3 units for free, and provide us with a large amount of sponsorship! Dr. Hohenheim, you must have been the matchmaker, right? ”
"Huh?" Hohenheim looked confused: "No, no, I can't do anything..."
"Captain Shepard is very happy, he wants to invite you to dinner, you can prepare quickly!"
Jessica left without waiting for Hohenheim to excuse herself, he sat down and scratched his head and muttered to himself, "What the hell is Thomas thinking..."
Lin Ao: "Okay doctor, I'll see Captain Shepard if you have any questions." ”
Seeing Lin Ao leave the medical room, Hohenheim got up and packed up the papers at hand. On one of the documents there is a special sign, which, as everyone knows, is the sign of the "Wanshi Chamber of Commerce", a competitor of the Moore Chamber of Commerce ...
