Chapter 204: An Important Interview Mission
In the ZZZ area of the planet Mutus, transport ships are constantly rising and falling, frequently going back and forth between the temporary spaceport and the ground. In the middle of this area, on a large warship take-off and landing field, tens of thousands of people from the planet Mutus waiting to board the plane and evacuate were densely crowded. These people dragged their children and daughters, and they all looked nervous and uneasy, and they looked like refugees fleeing alive. Around the landing field, there are teams of Union counterinsurgency marines, maintaining order. At the entrance of the take-off and landing field and on the surrounding heights, many well-known news television teams from major star regions set up camera and recording equipment to report on the evacuation operation "directed" by the Fifth War Zone.
“…… ENN TV's war correspondent on the planet Mutus, Xia Li, reports for you at the evacuation site! xiexie! Xia Li, a beautiful reporter who was still dressed in a fresh and capable outfit and wearing a single soldier's light armor, stood at a mountain pass not far from the take-off and landing field, and smiled at the camera.
"Cards! Call it a day! Brenda, who was wearing a bowler straw hat, waved to everyone, and then ran to Xia Li again, and said with a courteous face: "Xia Li, you have worked hard! Tired or not? Why don't I get you a stool to sit on!" Since Xia Li temporarily decided to insert Haoyi's live show yesterday, ENN TV's popularity has soared to the top three positions in the federal public opinion circle almost overnight. The bosses and directors of ENN TV were overjoyed, and naturally they did not forget to "reward" Xia Li's war journalism team, especially Xia Li, who received a six-figure high salary.
"Not tired!" Xia Li didn't seem to be very interested in this ENN "royal relative" all along, so she snorted coldly, then stopped paying attention to Brenda, and walked straight to the side to take off the miniature headset and other equipment on her body. At this time, she suddenly saw Ai Li, who was in charge of operating the digital signal transmission equipment in the group, and looked at the take-off and landing field in the distance in a daze, and couldn't help but step forward curiously and pat Ai Li's shoulder and asked, "Ai Li, what are you doing?" ”
This Ai Li is the staff member who found the signal sent by Haoyi from the zero base yesterday. Leng Buding was slapped by Xia Li, Ai Li was suddenly startled, and when he turned around and saw that it was Xia Li, he said with a bitter face: "Sister Xia Li, can you say hello to me in advance next time you pat me on the shoulder, I was almost scared by you and rolled down the mountain!" ”
"What are you looking at?" Xia Li pursed her lips disapprovingly, pointed to the take-off and landing field in the distance, and asked puzzledly, "Is there anything worth reporting there?" ”
"No, Sister Xiali, I always feel that something is not right!" Eli frowned and analyzed Xia Li: "You see, the people of the entire Mutus planet are estimated to be hundreds of millions, and what we see in front of us, you will not exceed 100,000 at best. ”
"What's that? Maybe there are federal troops elsewhere who are helping ordinary people evacuate! Xia Li put her hand on Ai Li's shoulder with a big grin, which made the young man blush embarrassedly, and subconsciously flashed to the side.
"Maybe you're right! However, the Fifth War Zone Weishenme wants to concentrate the war news teams of more than 1,000 TV stations that were originally scattered all over the planet in this area? Eli scratched his head.
"Hmph, didn't the officials of the propaganda department of the Fifth Theater of Operations say it? This is to facilitate the centralized evacuation of personnel from all sides! Stupid one, guess what! Brenda on the side saw Xia Li's lotus root-like jade arm on Eli's shoulder, her eyes turned red, and she couldn't help but leaned over and said sourly.
"Uh......" Eli was choked speechless for a while.
"Brenda, don't keep interrupting, okay? If it's okay, go and help Puran pack their things, there are five hours before this planet explodes, if you don't want to die here, hurry up, don't let your distant cousins come to me when the time comes! Seeing Brenda interrupting, Xia Li raised her eyebrows and sneered unceremoniously.
"You ......" Brenda suddenly turned his fair fat face like a red Fuji apple, "you" for a long time but couldn't say a word, like an angry little daughter-in-law, turned his head angrily and ran away.
"Eli, are you saying that there must be some ulterior secret or conspiracy here?" Seeing that Brenda was angry with herself, Xia Li's delicate nose shrugged and snorted disdainfully, then turned her head to stare at Qingli's beautiful eyes, and asked Ai Li with a smile. Yesterday, Xia Li's news team was able to "become famous", of which Ai Li contributed the most. If he hadn't inadvertently received a signal from Haoyi from the zero base, Xia Li would not have caught such a shocking news hotspot. At this time, seeing that Ai Li seemed to have discovered something, Xia Li subconsciously felt a little excited.
"I don't know if I'm right, but my sixth sense tells me that something must be wrong here!" Ai Li smiled reluctantly, pointed to the evacuation point in the distance, and said, "You see, there are only tens of thousands of ordinary people in this area at most. I don't know Weishenme, but because of this, the Fifth Theater of Operations has mobilized such a large number of logistics transport ships specifically to evacuate these people. I made a rough estimate that the transport ships in front of me alone would be enough to evacuate several divisions of ground combat troops. In addition, although the propaganda officers of the theater ostensibly wanted to facilitate the centralized evacuation of our war press teams, they strictly restricted our area of activity and explicitly forbade us not to exceed the boundaries of the ZZZ area. Anyway, I always felt that something was wrong here, but I couldn't say it for a while. ”
"You mean to say that the Fifth War Zone is most likely deliberately putting on a show!" Although Ai Li said a little confused, the intelligent Xia Li quickly cleared his thoughts, captured the highlights and key points in his words, and asked excitedly with a flash in his eyes.
"Well, yes, it's still Sister Xia Li who is smart, and she can beat my Rory's long-winded nonsense in one sentence!" Eli nodded in admiration.
"Pran, you all come here!" Xia Li smiled at Aili's compliment, then furrowed her eyebrows and groaned for a moment, and then turned back and shouted to her companions who were packing up their equipment and preparing to return to the evacuation point.
"Sister Xiali, what's the matter?" Pullan and the others ran over in response and asked curiously.
"Don't rush to pack your things, prepare again, let's go to a place outside the ZZZ area, maybe there will be new discoveries!" Xia Li smiled meaningfully at her subordinates.
"What? No way! I disagree! As soon as Xia Li's words fell, Brenda suddenly came in from the outside of the crowd, jumped to his feet and raised his voice in disagreement: "Xia Li, didn't you say that there are only five hours before the explosion of this planet?" It's all at this time, you still have to rush to a place outside the ZZZ area to do an interview, don't you want to die? What if I can't catch up with the evacuation of the fleet at Zuihou? Xia Li, I didn't say you, you are enthusiastic and serious about your work, everyone can see it. But you can't stop dying because of this, right? Besides, do you want to think about it for everyone? We finally ......."
"Shut up!" Brenda's "tirade" made Xia Li's face turn blue for a while, and after three or two sentences, she finally couldn't help but be furious, and scolded sharply: "Brenda, am I the team leader or are you the team leader?" If you have any objections, you can keep them, if you are afraid of death, you can go back to the evacuation point now, follow the others to evacuate Mutus first, and the old lady will not stop you! ”
"......" Brenda's old face is even more "colorful" this time.
"Who else has an opinion? If you have any opinions, you can follow the deputy team leader back to the evacuation point first! Xia Li also seemed to be angry with Brenda, and said hurriedly with a blue face: "Even if you all go back, sister, don't be afraid, the old lady has to dig out the cat here!" ”
"Sister Xia Li, I'm willing to stay!" Ai Li was the first to respond to Xia Li's call and was the first to raise his hand. Following Pu Lan and the others, they also raised their hands one after another, expressing their willingness to follow Xia Li on another adventure. In their group, except for Brenda, who is a middle-aged man who is half-old, the others are all young people in their twenties and thirties, and all of them have the same adventurous spirit as Xia Li who is not afraid of death. Otherwise, they wouldn't have braved the rain of bullets and followed Xia Li to report live on the battlefield. Having said that, there are really not many war correspondents like Xia Li and them.
"Good! Since everyone can trust my sister, then my sister doesn't talk much nonsense! As long as we dig up another piece of earth-shattering news, I believe that we can all be "famous for eternity" in the federal public opinion circles! Seeing that her subordinates were so supportive of herself, Xia Li suddenly turned her anger into joy and casually made a joke.
At this moment, the device in Aili's hand suddenly flashed a signal light. However, judging from the source on that set of displays, this time it seems to be a message sent from the headquarters of ENN TV in the Poole Star District.
"Sister Xia Li, a message from the headquarters!" Hearing this, Ai Li hurriedly lowered his head and manipulated the device, called up an encrypted message from it, frowned, looked up, and said to Xia Li: "It's an encrypted message specifically for you, Sister Xia Li!" ”
"Oh?" Xia Li was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly came to the device, signaled Ai Li to get out of the way of the console, and entered a string of identification codes into it, and then unlocked the string of information.
"Xia Li, after seeing the information, go back to the company headquarters and report quickly! There's an important interview assignment that you need to complete in person! This mission was sent directly from the propaganda department directly under the Federal Ministry of War! After reading this message, it should be completely destroyed immediately, and the relevant departments of the Fifth War Zone should not be intercepted! ”
Looking at these strings of red words dancing on the screen, Xia Li's heart couldn't help but jump suddenly, and she immediately realized that this interview task must be extraordinary. It was actually sent directly to the company's headquarters by the propaganda agency directly under the Federal Military Department, which means that it is likely that this interview mission will involve extremely high-level military secrets. Moreover, the information zuihou was nakedly aimed at the Fifth War Zone, which had to make Xia Li frown solemnly.
"Sister Xia Li, is there any new important task for the company?" Ai Li and the others on the side saw Xia Li looking at the message and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Listen, everyone, the mission objective has changed, immediately pack up your equipment and go back to the evacuation point first!" Xia Li was interrupted from her thoughts, and looked down at the signature of the message, it turned out to be the top board of directors of ENN Company, not the direct supervisor of Xia Li's department, so Xia Li felt that things must not be simple. After a moment of silence, Xia Li immediately clicked a button on the device to completely destroy the message, and then got up and said to his subordinates in a loud voice: "We are going back to the headquarters!" ”
