Chapter 357: Arrest

"Indian media: The Gaganyan-1 spacecraft has been successfully put into orbit."

"India will become the fourth country capable of launching astronauts autonomously."

"Shivin Samarkand denied that the Gaganyan spacecraft was Lucian technology, emphasizing that every spacecraft component is from domestic production."

"ISRO has not yet released images of the Gaganyan spacecraft."

“……”

Following the maiden manned flight of SpecaX's Dragon spacecraft on April 15, the Gaganyan-1 spacecraft was launched into orbit by a GSLV MK3 rocket on April 20.

The spacecraft weighing 8.2 tons is currently operating in an orbit of 300 kilometers, which at least indicates that the rocket's work is completely normal.

Billions of third brothers are partying, celebrating ISRO's great achievements, but at ISRO's headquarters in Bangalore, Natiladze is furious.

The old Lucia expert, who was already very old, pointed at a group of dark-skinned third brothers and scolded them with some nonefactory, first in English, and finally in Russian.

The third brother, who was pointed at his nose and scolded, stood aside with a cowering look, his eyes were full of innocent eyes, and he couldn't say a word.

Sakhalin, a technical support expert from Lucia who had just come in, was confused and repeatedly reassured Natiladze and asked what was going on.

The latter stretched his chest hard, and then pointed at the group of third brothers and said:

"Vladimir, do you know what these guys do? The solar cells in the service module are deployed to generate 5% of the electricity! ,5%! The company that supplied the solar panels changed the battery model! ”

"How can there be only that? Did it fail somewhere, solar cells were included in the previous ground tests. ”

"Yes, the test was installed with imported goods from the country, but with their own logo, and now it is completely made in India, and now the problem is that the service module cannot provide enough power to the command module, so it can only issue basic instructions or activate the emergency power supply."

Sakhalin: "...... (Forehead)"

At this time, a third brother finally stood up and explained: "The power generation efficiency will not be so low, it should not be fully developed...... Maybe we can figure it out."

Natiladze: "Heh, then let's launch the second Gaganyan spacecraft and send another astronaut up there to break it?" Just how are you?

Sakhalin, go to Samarkand, I want to have the right to supervise the parts of the entire supply chain! ”

Sakhalin: "Well, Master, you may not have a chance. ”

Natiladze: "? ”

Sakhalin: "Moody's just said that the Gaganyan spacecraft must be done entirely by the Indians, that we have completed the transformation of the unmanned full-state spacecraft, and that the position must be transferred to a local engineer and turned into a technical consultant. ”

Najiradze: "......"

……

While Bangalore was at a stalemate, there were also two people in the Castle Peak base who were trying to confront people.

"Bang!" An officer wearing a lieutenant badge slapped the table with all his might, and his eyes seemed to be able to breathe flames.

"Honestly, name, age, position, purpose! Any attempt to fight is self-defeating, your accomplice is next door, you know what to do! ”

Behind the desk in front of him, a middle-aged man with a blue nose and swollen face covered in mud was chained to a solid wood chair, tilting his head and "hissing" and inhaling, but he just didn't mean to speak.

This is a utility room in the base, which is now a temporary interrogation room.

The lieutenant's face was extremely ugly, he had been interrogated for four or five hours from the early hours of the morning, but the daring spy just wouldn't say anything.

But don't get me wrong, he didn't torture to extract a confession, and the reason for the middle-aged man's injuries was "someone else".

Outside the utility room, almost all members of the "Brave" project team have arrived, and are conducting a full review of Robot 13's log.

Go back five hours ago.

The No. 13 robot walked around the mountains and forests near the base according to its own training subjects, using its own rich sensors to scan the terrain for dynamic environmental reconnaissance, and at this time it had already gone back to change the battery by itself.

It is quite troublesome to change the battery of the No. 1 series robot, because the limbs including the torso are installed, but it only takes a few minutes for the No. 13.

In order to avoid the influence of mud and water, it wears an oversized rubber chemical protective suit, which is durable and cheap, and it is not distressing to change a few pieces a day, which is much more convenient than cleaning and maintaining parts.

In addition to taking off the hood from the head, the No. 13 robot, which is shrouded in an off-white Type 66 chemical protective suit, still looks a little scary at night, especially the faint red light of the active infrared photoelectric system on the head, and if you don't pay attention to it, it looks like a boss in a zombie movie.

At 2:15 a.m., the No. 13 robot, which still had 40 minutes of battery life, flexibly jumped down a small slope, and its huge weight made its feet smash into a shallow pit, and the movement was not small in the silent night.

The middle-aged man who was waiting for Niu Aihua to recover his strength and confirm his location was very sensitive, so he was vigilant to find the source of the movement.

However, what he didn't know was that Robot 13 on the high ground 70 meters away was also trying to confirm the identities of the two men, and it first checked the patrol route of the guard troops, but it did not match.

Base Registered Personnel? Unable to discern;

Are there any weapons? The infrared camera carefully discerned the backpacks and clothing of the two men, and then found a highly suspicious object.

Database searches, Glock 17 pistol 94% similarity, on the inside of an unknown male's clothing.

Discover the communication signal, cut off the interception, and encrypt the GSM mobile digit, without permission.

In two seconds, Robot 13 automatically locks the middle-aged man as an "unknown armed person", and Niu Aihua is a "suspected armed person or accomplice or hostage (low probability) or unrelated person (low probability)".

Equipped with a specialized AI that has been selected for military use, Robot 13 immediately reacts according to its own tasks and rules: immediately send a warning signal to the base, try to disarm the armed personnel, restrict its movement to the B-level or higher clearance administrators, try to protect itself from harm, and ensure the safety of all humans according to rules 2, 7, and 11.

The suspicious middle-aged man was still looking around, but suddenly felt that the ground behind him was shaking regularly, and when he turned back suddenly, he saw a two-meter-tall giant man wearing a jumpsuit and mask flying over through the low-light night vision device, and he was about to flee subconsciously.

However, where is the power of hydraulic and linear motors comparable to ordinary humans, Niu Aihua was pressed to the ground before the middle-aged man could react, and the No. 13 robot shouted at maximum volume while grabbing the pistol roughly:

"You have entered the military control area, immediately lay down your arms and surrender!"

The frightened Niu Aihua had no idea why a monster that made a screeching sound suddenly jumped out, and then was briefly blinded by the super light of robot 13.

The No. 13 robot took the opportunity to get up briefly and press Niu Aihua, and then lifted the middle-aged man over and piled them together.

It loaded the items around the two men, including the pistols it had snatched, into two backpacks and hung them around its neck, then picked up an unknown suspicious person trying to struggle with one hand and clamped it under his armpit, clamped them firmly with the force of hydraulic and synchronous motors, and ran wildly towards the base.
