Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on the old man Shao, Shao Heng was shocked for a moment, and then he understood the meaning of Chu Si's words in a flash.
After receiving the message from Sae Yang just now, he has been paying attention to the old man's movements with his peripheral vision. When he saw the email, his reaction was not too big. After seeing the video, his face changed for a moment. Very, very ugly.
But because the changes were too fast, Chu Si was unable to discern the emotions contained in it.
The old man's eyes were still on the video, and he didn't lower his eyes until the last second. He sat at the table, his hand resting on the table was clenched into a fist, his thumb unconsciously groped for the knuckle of his index finger, and after grinding for a while, he suddenly said, "Este Cabel... Before this girl's accident, I actually didn't know that so many things happened under the calm surface. After all, the medical department, the combat department and even the research department under the military are not the same line."
Everyone looked at each other and listened in silence.
"That was... in the summer of 5654, because of the death of Cabell, there was a civil strife in the military. At that time, several lieutenants were implicated in the experiment. Later, the experiment was urgently stopped, and the participants were secretly dealt with and implicated. Several of the lieutenant generals also dismounted one after another, and later re-promoted a group of younger ones. This incident was never brought to light because of the too many people involved, but the internal cleaning efforts were indeed very strong. Commander Feng may still have some impressions of that large-scale transfer." Mr. Shao said in a low voice.
Childe Feng was stunned and said, "Ah—", nodded and shook his head, "The military department's confidentiality mechanism is too high, and it is impossible for us to come into contact with things that are too deep across organizations... I didn't expect it to be like this... "
"So after that time, we all thought it was almost over. Of course, there were also some people who didn't believe it and insisted that the cleaning was not thorough. I still had blind trust in the military at that time, so I was not included." Mr. Shao continued, "I didn't expect that less than five years later, I heard the news of the experimental group again, so a lieutenant general of the military led the commandos to copy their home. This is the second time... and this time, let We realized that this experiment may involve more people and higher positions of power than we previously thought."
"Will the position of power even be higher?" Shao Heng quickly grasped the point, "The one who was implicated before has already reached the level of lieutenant generals, no matter how high..."
Mr. Shao was silent for a moment, then nodded, "So this is a battle with almost no chance of winning, Esther Cabel's original suggestion is right, there will be no ideal result in a head-to-head fight, there is only a detour to leave a way back. "
"So she succeeded?"
"We thought she was unsuccessful at first." Mr. Shao raised his eyes and said, "But later found something in the hands of one of her students."
"What?" Chus asked.
Mr. Shao lowered his eyes and sighed, "I left a copy and brought it back to my room."
Shao Heng was enlightened: "So you have been hiding from people before because you left something?"
The old man paused for a moment and nodded.
"Then I'll go get it with you." Shao Heng said.
The old man held his wrist and said solemnly, "Wait."
Shao Heng nodded subconsciously.
Although he is always short of "old man" and "old man", in fact, he is still a little afraid of Mr. Shao. In fact, I can't say I'm afraid. In the final analysis, it was because I was less punished by the old man Shao when he was a child. Ever since he could walk, Shao Heng was urged to solve everything that he could solve by himself. Don't expect anyone to help, just like living in a military camp.
After years and months, the old man has accumulated a lot of power, and now he is suddenly serious, and Shao Heng has a little conditioned reflex.
When he came back to his senses and wanted to say, "No, wait," the old man had already left the gate of the command center.
The vibrating sound of the communicator rang again, Chu Si looked down at the screen in his hand, Tang sent a message saying that he was about to connect, and gate 17 could be ready to open. Chu Si knocked on the table at Sae Yang.
"Then I'll take a step first." Sae Yangchongchus blinked, waved his hand at the people present, and left the command center.
"What are you doing, Mr. Yang?"
"Go and test the aircraft for me." Chu Si said, and said to Roger, "arrange for my personal aircraft to park at Gate 11, which is the closest to the warehouse. After a while, Mr. Yang is not used to taking anything out, so don't stop it, and don't Alarming others. The other gate 17 is ready to be connected, and my people are coming.”
After he finished speaking, he said to Shao Heng again: "Now dispatch a 100-person pursuit team, and also don't alert others, and get out of gate 17 after receiving the order."
Shao Heng was stunned: "What's going on?"
Chu Si patted him on the shoulder: "Do it, you'll know when the pursuit team goes out. I told you too early for fear that you won't be able to do it."
Shao Heng: "...????"
As a person who is about to retire, Childe Feng is in a relatively harmonious environment on weekdays. After many years, he is still a little unaccustomed to the twists and turns of the military, and he can't react for a while. He sat and thought for a while, then looked up and asked Chus, "So what's the situation, sir?"
Chu Si remembered that they hadn't seen the draft, and were still unclear about some things, so he explained a little: "We intercepted a little bit of information before that, during the century-old chaos in the interstellar space, the research team under the military was due to a certain For some reason, the time-stretching technology of the City of Silver was introduced, and he began to study time experiments. The slogan on the bright side was to create a world that is not limited by time. The predecessor was the eternal life plan mentioned in the email, which was later renamed the devil. Plan. There are many high-level generals of the military behind the entire time experiment. Of course, I suspect that the general government, including our security building, is not completely clean. Going deeper, it directly involves the City of Silver."
He sneered and twitched the corners of his mouth: "What good will be involved in the City of Silver? What's more, the methods used in this experiment are very extreme. Miss Esther Cabel in the video just now should be a former opponent of this experimental group. , As for whether he realized the problem in the middle of participating in the experiment, or whether it was an experimental group who entered undercover, it is not known at present, but no matter which one is, it is really chilling to get the ending in the video. In addition, this All the experiments in the middle and late stages of the team are almost directly applied to young children. The theoretical success rate is 0.0037%. As of the second home raid mentioned by Mr. Shao, they have produced a so-called successful product and twelve semi-finished products. You can By the way, calculate how many people who died in the experimental cabin will pave the way behind these successful and semi-finished products."
"Not to mention the incalculable consequences of this kind of time experiment." He paused, tapped on the table and said solemnly, "Looking at the current performance of the military and the City of Silver, the purpose of the experiment is probably fundamental. More than that."
"So those weird things recently, such as the sudden appearance of the Black Swan... are all related to this time experiment?" Shao Heng muttered, "I just said how could things from that time appear at such a time."
Roger also followed: "No wonder the black swan cabin is so strange."
When Shao Heng muttered that sentence, Chu Si's heart flashed a little for no reason... A strange feeling, he always felt that he seemed to have missed some important information, but he couldn't remember anything for a while.
He frowned and quickly returned to normal.
"The military headquarters and the City of Silver..." Childe Feng and the others looked sad.
"This is indeed a problem that is hard to ignore, but I don't think their posture is actually like they are ready to attack immediately." Chu Si recalled the star map, raised his hand and circled the void, "I don't think it is more like a circle around What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for what?"
"It's all possible." Chu Si guessed, "Someone, something, or a certain timing. But no matter what it is, it's very strange. When our planet collapsed, the City of Silver did not come up immediately, but was patient. Wait? Look carefully at this strategic star map, while they surround our entire rescue area, they also shield the interference of other planets from the cordon."
It's no wonder that they have never encountered robbery from other planets, nor have they encountered an attack on the City of Silver. The more Chu Si talked, the more he felt that all the anomalies he encountered before were explained in this hypothesis.
But what is the City of Silver patiently waiting for...
"Time experiment?" Shao Heng said, "I mean what they are waiting for should also be related to time experiment, such as waiting for a certain experimental result? Or waiting for a certain experimental process?"
Chu Si nodded, "So there is a crucial question - what stage has the so-called time experiment progressed to? In the current situation -" He pointed to the star map, and continued: "I'm afraid the answer will not be What a delight, to prepare for the worst."
"So we now—"
"I'm looking for the answer." Chu Si calmly said, "Find the answer first and then prescribe the right medicine. Emergency does not mean that you need to go to the doctor."
He picked up the remote control and readjusted the glass screen of the conference room to make it transparent. Standing inside, he could directly see the huge monitoring screen. He asked the monitor to focus on two places - Gate 11 and Gate 17.
The timing is very coincidental. Just after the cut, Tang's aircraft has successfully connected with the White Wolf ship at one end of the gate. Because it takes a while, the guards at the gate are busy transferring Tang's aircraft from the connection to the White Wolf. In the ship, at the same time, the people sent by Chu Si were leading Tang to the command center. The entire gate 17 looks a bit messy because of the large number of people.
At this moment, a figure flashed past the corner of the surveillance camera and could not be seen without paying attention.
Chu Si picked up the communicator clearly and sent a message to Sae Yang again. Just after the message was sent successfully, Chu Si's personal aircraft appeared at gate 11. Needless to say, Sae Yang was in the cockpit. What is very strange is that behind Chu Si's exclusive aircraft, another aircraft was simultaneously bolted. aircraft.
"Is that... the Black Swan?" Roger asked in surprise, "The Black Swan we checked?"
"Yes." Chu Si nodded.
Sae Young synchronously drove the two aircrafts and slipped out from gate 11 silently, unobstructed, and immediately opened the most high-end stealth cover and anti-radar device on Chusi's personal aircraft as soon as he exited the gate.
Gate 11 closed slowly behind him, and the surveillance video suddenly jumped and was cut to the interior of an aircraft. Sae Young sat in the cockpit and casually made an OK gesture for the camera.
Everyone present was a little stunned, "Mr. Yang, what are you doing?"
Chu Si said: "I said, go after the answer."
He fiddled with the communicator in his hand, and the screen stayed on the message exchange interface with Sae Yang. The top two contents were the words that Sae Yang sent him before:
Article 1—
You don't need to watch your little fool, I found the receiver of the signal for you - Xiao Bailian's father. When entering the gate of the command center, a message was being passed to people.
Article 2—
The content of the message from the old man was intercepted: Gate 17, etc.
Then there was a period when Chu Si went back to the past, indicating that he knew.
Sae Young replied with two words: reward.
Chu Si was busy arranging everyone to cooperate, but he didn't have time to reply.
But no matter what, one thing is very clear - Mr. Shao is the one who received the signal from Fort Barney, and maybe he was in charge of watching the running process of Longzhu on the White Wolf Ship. At the moment, I am in contact with the person behind him and want to meet.
It's not a wise move to meet at this time. Instead of letting the old man risk being discovered, it is definitely better to let the old man continue to stay in the White Wolf Ship. Taking such a risk to pick up Mr. Shao, it is very likely that they must involve Mr. Shao in person in some matters.
What Mr. Shao is good at is nothing more than those in his professional field, biomedicine, or intelligent mechanical therapy... This kind of content is easily reminiscent of that time experiment.
Regardless of whether Old Master Shao and the others are kind or malicious, or who they are on the side of, as long as you follow them, you are likely to know the latest progress of the time experiment, which is the answer Chu Si needs now.
After Sae Youngby was OK, he straightened his long legs and changed his posture. He turned his head and glanced at the monitoring screen, reminding Chu Si, "Sir, I will reward you if this trip is successful."
Chu Si asked the monitoring to switch to the two-way dialogue mode, and said, "Yes, do you have a fancy position?"
Of course he understood what Sae Young's so-called reward was all about, but he calmly avoided it.
Sae Yang solemnly frowned and pursed his lips for a moment, then cooperated: "How is the deputy commander?"
Childe Feng and other three deputy commanders: "..."
Chu Si smiled: "Do I want to show you the expressions of other people?"
Sae Yang snorted: "Stingy, how about the captain of the security force, one level higher than Xiaobailian."
Shao Heng: "..."
Chu Si actually folded his arms and turned to look at Shao Heng: "Are you against it?"
Shao Heng: "..." Can I fucking say that I am against it in front of Mr. Sae Yang!
Chu Si turned back and said, "I object."
Sae Young raised an eyebrow.
Shao Heng: "..." I don't know why, but I somehow feel that I'm going to be even more unlucky.
While speaking, Chu Si looked at the surveillance at Gate 17 again, "Did this scene last for a minute?"
"What? What's going on?!" Roger was taken aback, "Is something wrong with the monitoring?"
Shao Heng was also taken aback, "What's the matter? Are there people who are risking chaos under our noses?!"
The monitor anxiously tried to cut the angle of the camera, only to find that someone had unknowingly replaced the picture, and a normal scene was created. When the monitor hurriedly eliminated the problem and relocated to Gate 17, the entire gate was no longer visible, and the guards who took Tang's aircraft away lined up at the gate again.
Chu Sichong said to Shao Heng, "Where's the chase team you assigned? Chase from Gate 17."
Shao Heng called the chasing team of 100 to set off immediately, and turned to ask Chu Si, "I have a bad feeling, who is chasing???"
Chu Si said calmly, "Your father."
"What?!!!" Shao Heng was almost brought up in one breath.
Chu Si said: "Didn't you find that he went to get something and never came back?"
The 100-person pursuit team immediately set off from Gate 17, all covered with invisible masks. The surveillance video switched again, and the entire big screen was occupied by four scenes—the interior of the aircraft driven by Sae Young, the exterior footage of the aircraft, the interior of the aircraft driven by the pursuit team leader, and the exterior footage.
Sae Yang took the lead and said: "It's locked, you guessed right, there are nearly a hundred Black Swans in total. Your aircraft system has been transformed really well, and the efficiency is surprisingly high. I'm going to put the black swan I took with me. Come out and join that team, what do you think?"
Chu Si said: "Don't be too ostentatious, synchronize your coordinates to the pursuit team."
"Nearly a hundred Black Swans?!" Childe Feng said, "What on earth is Mr. Shao going to do? This is... Is it possible... Impossible?! And who is the other party? Why did you dig out the Black Swan? use?"
"Master Shao's position is hard to say for the time being. I hope it's positive. As for the person who answers him... Who knows, we'll see the truth when we catch up." Chu Si replied smoothly.
But after saying this, he suddenly paused. That weird feeling came again - he still felt that he seemed to have missed some key information, maybe a certain action, maybe a certain sentence... He felt that he should remember it, as if he had already reached his lips, but as if It was as if he was struggling, but he couldn't catch it.
What exactly is...
