Chapter 274: Hanada Kiriko

Blacksis.

This planet has become an inaccessible frozen planet since the last Star Spirit purification. The focus planet of the War of the Brood is now barely visible from the war, except for the space junk left in orbit.

There must be a reason why Kerrigan asked him to investigate this planet, presumably because UED used to be active on this planet, but it was just ......

"After the purification of the Star Spirit, Blacksis experienced a period of violent natural cataclysm, as every drop of water on the planet was evaporated because of the purification. As the planet cools down, excess water vapor in the atmosphere settles down in the form of snow and hail, washing over the bare surface...... Oh, I know you don't want to listen to this boring science. ”

"If you know, it's good." Yang Yi retracted his eyes, "All in all, this planet should have only recently returned to a relatively stable state, how can UED say that it is impossible to build a secret base here under such a natural disaster, right?" ”

"That's not for sure, Commander. The technological prowess of the UED is still a mystery, and without them, my engineering team has the ability to build a settlement on this planet in the event of such a natural disaster. Xuanwu retorted, "Or in other words, if it's just a settlement, of course, it's not difficult, but the main question is for what purpose they want to build a secret base here." ”

"Most of them are interested in the fact that this planet has been labeled as 'purified' in the star region, so almost no one cares about it."

"Report to the Commander, we've docked into planetary orbit, and there are no anomalies yet." The voice of the captain of the advance team sent out was heard in the communication channel.

"Got it, you wait there for the follow-up troops to arrive. Once they've set up their outpost, you'll try to land as planned. ”

"Roger."

Naturally, it was impossible for Xuanwu's hull to be parked in Blackcis's orbit, and her hull was placed between the orbits of the two planets. As for landing, it is necessary to send engineering ships to build a simple outpost space station in Blacksys's orbit - after all, although Xuanwu is large, it is really difficult to use.

"Thank you." When he was depressed, Sakiya brought over the drink he needed. During this time, the maid appointed by Xuanwu was by his side from beginning to end, even when he went down to the lounge on the lower floors to rest, she would faithfully follow him until he fell asleep, and then she would lie down on another bed in Yang Yi's room to rest - yes, he and Sakuya even had to sleep in the same room. Although Yang Yi protested about this, Xuanwu persuaded him on the grounds that he was keeping him safe—partly because Yang Yi wanted to ......

"Speaking of which, what is the person called Huatian or something, have you checked it?" When Yang Yi saw Sakuya, he suddenly thought of the incident he had encountered in the core area before, so he looked at Xuanwu who was soaking in the tank next to him and asked.

Yang Yi has been living on the hull of Xuanwu during this time, to be precise, in the bridge, and when he is fine, Yang Yi will go to the core area below to drink something. The people on the Xuanwu hull basically knew Yang Yi, so apart from greeting him, basically no one would come to mess with him or chat with him, and Yang Yi was also happy to be quiet. The bosses of some establishments in the core area are willing to play close to him, and besides, he is the commander, so the activities in the premises are basically free.

The places he frequents most are the bars in the core area, probably a habit he has developed over the years of playing with Black Rose. The bars in the core area are different from those in Black Rose or Port of the Dead, there are not so many pirate mercenaries smoking cigarettes and guns, and most of them are people of some status who come here for fun. It's also a pleasure to order a drink and listen to the bartender or the boss chew his tongue.

But it's not possible that he will be safe every time he comes here. The drunk people in the bar are not only for entertainment, but also for some undesirable people. The Xuanwu ship is full of 4 billion crews, and the change of management is indispensable for open and secret battles, and Xuanwu does not have the energy to control every detail of the 4 billion people alone, she just needs to ensure that her hull is not chaotic and the situation is not out of control.

Since he was in a bar, it was inevitable that someone would come to him to cry or plead, but Yang Yi still remembered Xuanwu's advice to him—or warning—so most of these people were eventually sent away by him, but there was a woman who kept pestering him, more than a dozen times in a row, chasing him in several bars, and even forcing Sakuya, who had been silently following him, couldn't help but pull out the long knife at his waist and ask her to step down.

Yang Yi was chased really hard, after driving her away for the last time, Yang Yi asked the bartender about the persistent woman, only to know that the woman's name is Hanada Kiriko, she is in her thirties this year, her husband is a civil servant in the civil affairs department of the Xuanwu ship, he disappeared a week ago, and his body was not found abandoned on the surface of the habitation star until three days ago. For various reasons, the investigation has been slow and there is still no clue of her husband's killer.

After Yang Yi learned about these things, he probably guessed a little bit of what things looked like, but he still asked Xuanwu to investigate this woman later, at least give her a similar explanation so that she wouldn't be entangled anymore.

"It's a bit complicated, but I've warned the lady that you don't have to worry about her pestering you anymore." Xuanwu did not choose to answer Yang Yi directly.

“…… Listen to what you mean, maybe there is some ulterior secret involved in this matter, right? ”

"That's not it, there are no ulterior secrets on the hull of the concubine." A slight bubble bubbled out of Xuanwu's cooling cylinder, "It's just that these things involve many important management personnel on the concubine hull, there is no need to involve the entire management because of her, the specific compensation matter will be discussed with the relevant personnel, you don't have to worry too much about this matter." ”

He understood what Xuanwu meant, since Xuanwu was willing to take over, Yang Yi didn't want to care about this matter anymore. It's just that Xuanwu's words did make him feel a little uncomfortable - this thing is too familiar to him, and he has seen a lot of similar things when he worked in the imperial enterprise in Keha.

It's just that, although he did let go of the matter, but a week later, he learned from the bartender that made him immediately feel restless - Hanada Kiriko was found dead at home.
