Chapter 10 Candidates

The investigation was in full swing, and every relevant and unrelated person was summoned, and even the guards on duty in the eastern district were called back to receive questioning and investigation. A temporary Special Investigation Committee was also established, headed by Ferrarache, one of the seven members. As a neutral party, it would be more appropriate for the Tanzanite commissioner to investigate the matter. The reason for the incident was that during an investigation, an earthling and a Saipan who were members of the investigation team quarreled and quarreled, and in order to prevent similar incidents, people from a third planet were simply invited.

In the investigation room of the Joint Logistics Office, a group of Tanzans led by Ferrarace sat on the interrogation seat, and in order to ensure objectivity and fairness, the Tanzanians who participated in the investigation this time requested that they had no contact with Saipan and the earthlings, like Besta, if he worked in the Joint Logistics Office, it would be impossible for him to be selected. There was only one Saipan seated at the interrogation table, his name was Borze Ronald, and he was the surviving man who had just been withdrawn from the optoelectronic plant. The questioning was conducted by one person, which is also a measure to prevent collusion.

"Tell me about all the abnormal things that happened on duty this time!" The question that has been asked more than a dozen times has been raised again, and the Tanzanians who asked the question do not feel redundant, although the people before the situation have basically made it clear, but this is indeed a very important question, and it is not too many times to ask.

"It was normal, we were all fine when we handed over. Because we just arrived at the optoelectronic plant, we also checked and even actually operated each system, and there was no problem! Boron Ronald struggled to recall every detail, and unlike the rigidity of the other people involved in the investigation, he was quite cooperative.

"You said you basically checked every system at the time of handover and didn't find any problems?" Ferrarache was as interested in this new information as if he had discovered a new continent, and motioned to the staff next to him to jot down this important information.

"Yes! We even tried the defense system and fired a few shots! Boron Ronald nodded with certainty: "But what I don't know is why we all checked it once, but in the end, there was still a problem with closing the outer lid of the energy box when the light pool in Area C was collecting." If the cover had closed properly, there would have been no such accident. ”

Next, I continued to ask a few regular questions, and the answer I got was the same as before, it was nothing more than the light pool in the malfunctioning energy box, somehow the original 5% reserve capacity was suddenly basically gone, which caused no time to deal with the failure of the outer cover of the energy box in time, and finally led to the explosion of the light pool, which was one of the worst accidents in Celta's history.

The investigation has been going on for some time, and all the information obtained points to two points, one is that the outer cover of the energy box is faulty and cannot be closed normally, and the other is that the reserve capacity of the light pool has been consumed in advance and has not been discovered, causing the light pool to be overcharged and explode. Today is the day for the Accident Investigation Committee to report to the Planetary Commission, which is being carried out at the Joint Logistics Service. The joint logistics office was very lively with people coming and going, and people of the five major races in the eight outer districts appeared, and no matter who they knew or didn't know, they were not in the mood to say hello, and the entire joint logistics office was in a dull and depressed state.

One of the largest conference rooms in the Joint Logistics Service, OK

With all seven members of the Star Committee in attendance, Ferrarache gave the other six members a heartfelt briefing on the latest investigation, and finally said: "There are only two things to confirm at the moment, one: the outer cover of the energy box cannot be closed normally for unknown reasons, and two: there is a problem with the reserve capacity of some recharged light pools. ”

After speaking, Ferrarache deliberately looked at the two chairmen and vice chairmen, the results of the investigation related to the final determination of responsibility, whether it is the earthlings or the Saipans, if one party is determined to have caused the accident, then the people of all races on this side will feel that this is a shame, and the losses caused by this will make the alliance reduce the allocation of this race in the future resource arrangement, which is a precedent. No clan wants their own people to inflict such a heavy loss on the Alliance. The rebuilding of the optical pond optoelectronics plant is relatively easy, but the main equipment for the reconstruction of the memeson production line will be transported from the distant Harrow Wangsen star, which is dominated by ice prism people 1260 light years away. Harrow Wangsen is so far away from Celta that the space carrier will fly for almost 4 years. In these 4 years, Celta will not be able to produce raw materials for interstellar navigation, and can only use Celta as a backup, which will have too much impact on the communication between planets. Because of this, Ferrarache speaks very carefully, only stating facts without making any judgments.

"In this case, this accident is not the responsibility of my Saipan guards, or there are some problems in the facility that only appeared when the Saipan people were on duty. As for the inaccuracy of the reserve capacity of the light pool, it is not caused by us Saipan, and the energy dissipation of the light pool (1) has never been done by the energy source responsible for the earthlings? As soon as Ferrarache finished speaking, Borkemick eagerly expressed his opinion, and his small eyes swept over the two earthlings commissioners, eager to immediately lay the blame on their people, so that he could get rid of his own people.

Shi Chengfeng was not angered by Boron Kemik's words, while Yu Chengfei's face was swollen purple, it was indeed very inappropriate to conclude that it was the responsibility of a certain race without investigating the matter at all, and only understanding the skin, no wonder Yu Chengfei was so annoyed.

Bokambi, who was sitting next to Yu Chengfei, flashed his thick eyelids, looked at Yu Chengfei and Borkemick and said, "It's too early to say that the responsibility of that race, let's discuss how to report this matter to the Central Committee!" After so many days of investigation, no results can be produced in a short period of time, and the day after tomorrow is the 15th day of the accident, not to mention the time limit for reporting major accidents, and the reconstruction work of Jiemiko will also be seriously affected. ”

"Yes! No matter what, we can't delay it any longer, and if we report it after the time limit, we will be punished. Ferrarachel said.

"How can you report it! Won't it be reported that it may be us earthlings who caused this accident? Yu Chengfei had not completely calmed down from the anger just now, and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"So it will!" Shi Chengfeng finally spoke: "Boron Kmick just expressed his own opinion, it's okay to publish his own opinion, but at most it is used as a reference, what are you anxious about, do we say so?" Ferrarace is responsible for the investigation, so let's report it according to Ferrarache's conclusions! ”

"The Point Guard Is Here"

Shi Chengfeng seems to be criticizing his own people, but in fact, it can be said that he completely denied Borokmick's point of view just now, but what he said left others speechless

It can be said that this shows his authority and impartiality as the chairman of the NPC National Committee. The other committee members exchanged eye contact, but they could not ask any questions, so they sent the circumstances of the accident and the preliminary conclusions to the Central Committee of the Eighth Outer District in accordance with Shi Chengfeng's opinion.

888 light-years away, Nemithea, the administrative center of the Outer Eighth Region. A magnificent bluestone building rises on the edge of the turquoise waters of Lake Ekena. This bluestone building is arranged in a hollow shape, with a length and width of 66 meters, and there is an artificial fountain in the middle courtyard, and there are five stone sculptures representing the five major races of the outer eight districts around the fountain, which continuously spew water from their mouths. This is the famous bluestone council hall in the outer eight districts, which has a history of more than 500 years.

In a quaint and elegant room, seven powerful old men sat on comfortable wooden chairs, staring at the fountain in the courtyard, and were silent for a long time. The seven people have different appearances, an old man with a shiny scalp, sparse eyebrows, and smooth skin on his face is the chairman of the Central Committee of the Eighth District of the Ice Prism Aliens, Ogugrachi, and the one who has more wrinkles and a little pigmentation is Zhong Haishou, the vice chairman of the committee. The two tall Tanzanians are Beth Gauyat and Croviedo, and the relatively tall Boron Prasa and Boron Chiber among the Saipan people are only about ten centimeters taller than the average Saipan, and the two are barely 1.7 meters tall. Black Flame Star Commissioner Fino Depp's obviously huge eyes looked a little terrifying, but after getting along with him a lot, I knew that this old man with terrifying eyes was actually very easy to get along with.

Boron Prasa and Boron Chiber had gloomy faces, no matter what the final outcome of the incident was, but after all, it was an accident that happened to their people while they were on duty, and it was common sense to infer that they Saipan were afraid that they would not be able to get out of it.

Ogugrachi's calm voice sounded: "It's been almost three months since the incident, and I guess the people on Celta Star won't be able to find out anything." Let's talk about who to send better, the first candidate should consider being closer to Celta, too far away may be a mistake, although the report does not say, but I estimate that it is already like fire and water over there. Candidates should also consider the kind that must be able to calm the scene, solve problems, and understand the general situation. ”

The members were silent for a while, but it was Fino Depp who spoke first: "I think it is better to choose from the earthlings and the Saipans, and to choose a person with high moral standing and general knowledge, so that he can control his own people, which is more beneficial to the investigation work." ”

"Wouldn't that deepen the antagonism of another race?" Croviedo disagreed.

"There are pros and cons to everything, but as long as we choose a person with a strong view of the overall situation, there is no such problem!" Fino Depp swept through the crowd, and his determined eyes conveyed a message that a person with a strong view of the big picture would tend to do things that were slightly detrimental to his own race, rather than favoring his own race on the contrary.

"Fino Depp has a point, I think the candidate will be chosen from the Saipan!" Ogugrachi gives the chosen range. Boron Chiber looked at each other tightly, but was immediately stopped by Boron Prasa. It is no wonder that Boron Chiber is nervous, a person with a strong view of the overall situation is afraid that he will make strict requirements for his race, so that the Saipan people will know that they will lose.

Note 1: The energy dissipation of the optical pool refers to the dissipation of the optical pool with a certain amount of energy to the energy storage state of 5%, and the recharging efficiency is the highest in the energy storage state of 5%.
