The situation is very bad
Jason frowned.
"To what extent?"
Jason asked.
"We have recently captured 23 scouts, and more than 6 'lurkers' have been exposed again, and their targets are all the locations of the 'Kirin main ship'."
Cortana said, looking at Polun.
"Emily still has something to do, I'll take a look."
Bolun said very tactfully.
Cortana watched the young man walk towards Emily.
"The second son of the Bolun family?"
"It's even better than the rumors say."
Cortana commented.
"Among the young people I know, he should be among the best in terms of ability and potential."
Jason once again expressed his evaluation without being stingy.
Then, he looked up at Cortana.
He remembered that the 'Kirin main ship' should be in a secret base nearby, and this secret base should not be a secret to the 'lurkers' of the Sabi Stars.
Could it be? !
Suddenly Jason thought of a possibility.
Cortana noticed Jason's expression.
The adjutant nodded and said directly.
"Just like Master Chief, the 'Kirin Main Ship' is just an empty shell."
"Or it is indeed a third-generation warship."
"However, the 'Kirin Main Ship' is the fourth generation—it is the latest main battleship we built with the help of a certain member of 'Diamond Immortal' based on the technology of the Sabi Stars and the knowledge of the mysterious side of the ground!"
"It's our real secret weapon."
Speaking of this, the adjutant paused, and his voice became low.
"However, it was 'discovered'."
Discover
Not being 'targeted'
Jason keenly noticed the description in Cortana's words.
"What do you mean by 'discovered'?"
Jason asked.
"In our plan, in tomorrow's recruit expedition plan, the semi-public 'Kirin Main Ship' stand-in will be lifted off and return to the base on the moon, while the real 'Kirin Main Ship' will be hidden in the dark, giving The fatal attack from the Sabi people, however, the Sabi people may have 'discovered', they began to send out scouts non-stop, and one by one the 'lurkers' who hid deeper began to appear."
"and… "
"General Rael Funo was assassinated yesterday!"
Cortana has news that surprises Jason.
General Rael Funo is undoubtedly one of the backbones of the 'ground'. Although he is not the most powerful person, he is a 'spiritual leader' to some extent. Really a disaster.
"Is the injury serious?"
Jason asked.
Since Cortana was able to sit here and discuss tomorrow's 'Soldiers Expedition' with him, it proved that the old general was still alive.
"Not too serious."
"Just a shot in the right arm."
"The one who assassinated the old general was one of the old general's staff."
"A person who would never have betrayed the ground."
"Also, he is not controlled by the 'lurker'."
Cortana's eyes sharpened when she said this.
Rape!
Traitor without a doubt!
Moreover, a traitor appeared at the top of the 'ground'.
Jason frowned all of a sudden.
He knew exactly what this meant.
The secrets and layout of the 'ground' will be known to the Sabi people.
The battle situation where there is no advantage, I am afraid that it will fall into an extremely passive situation again.
"The real 'Kirin Main Ship' is very powerful?"
After thinking for a while, Jason brought the topic back to the 'Kirin main ship'.
Obviously, the root of all problems now is the 'Kirin main ship'.
Whether it's the Sabie's investigation, the lurkers, or the subsequent assassination, it's all for the 'Kirin main ship'.
And can be hidden so deeply by the 'ground'.
And being able to be so valued by the Sabi Stars.
Jason became quite curious about the 'Kirin main ship'.
"very powerful."
"As long as the timing is right."
"Enough to turn the tide of battle."
Cortana replied.
"Then what do I need to do?"
Jason nodded and asked.
He didn't ask more about the 'Kirin main ship'.
Because, he knew it was impossible for Cortana to say.
And under the premise of tomorrow's "Recruit Expedition", it is impossible for Cortana to stay here for a long time.
Jason himself is not a person who likes to go around in circles.
Under such a premise, he cut into the topic very simply.
"As far as possible to ensure the smooth progress of the 'Soldiers' Expedition', we speculate that the Sabi stars will take the risk to destroy the ceremony of the 'Soldiers' Expedition', forcing us to show the real 'Kirin Main Ship'—when the 'Soldiers' Expedition' is destroyed, We, who urgently need to restore morale, must need new weapons, and is there anything more suitable than the 'Kirin Main Ship'?"
"However, this is also our opportunity."
"A chance to completely wipe out the rear."
"And this requires your cooperation. We need you to appear at the ceremony of the 'New Recruits Expedition' as one of the top combat forces."
Cortana looked at Jason, pleadingly in her eyes.
"good."
Jason nodded without hesitation.
He himself is inseparable from the 'ground' camp.
Not to mention, his main mission is closely related to the 'ground'.
In any case, he will help.
"Very good."
"We will count the meritorious service three times."
"If you have any requests, you can ask them now."
Cortana laughed.
"arms!"
"Enough heavy weapons."
"It needs to be concealed enough."
Jason didn't say any more.
However, Jason believed that Cortana would understand what he meant.
In fact it is.
Cortana understood Jason's thoughts almost instantly.
Her eyes swept across the three of John without a trace.
However, Cortana didn't say much, but got up and left.
Jason sent Cortana out of the 'fortress', and when Jason returned, John, Brian, and McCall were already sitting on the sofa at the side of the living room, waiting for him.
There are no actual meeting rooms in the 'fortress'.
But this small area with four sofas and a small round coffee table is considered a meeting area by default.
Especially when three of the four people are sitting in it, it naturally means that a meeting is about to take place.
"Our guess came true."
After Jason sat down, McCall spoke first.
The former private detective sighed and shrugged while talking, his face full of helplessness.
"Well, the 'ground' alliance is more riddled with holes than we imagined."
Brian, the old father, looked solemn. He took a deep breath and looked at his daughter Kami in the distance.
John habitually kept silent, just raised his hand and stroked Daisy's head.
However, John's eyes were sharp.
Anyone who is familiar with John knows that John at this time is dangerous.
When they learned the facts about the Sabi people, the three of John and Jason had discussed "how did the Sabi people find the ground", and there were probably only two of them.
1. Unintentional discovery.
2. Someone leads the way.
Compared with the latter, Jason and John believed in the latter more.
And if it's the latter, the 'ground' alliance is in dire straits.
Because according to the original situation, the people on the 'ground' who are most likely to contact the 'Sabi Stars' are those who landed on the moon, and it has been decades since the 'ground' first landed on the moon.
In the past few decades, the number of "ground" landings on the "lunar surface" has exceeded more than 10 times.
And these people have become powerful or famous because of the honor of "landing on the moon".
To put it simply, if there are traitors among these people, the 'ground' will become fragile, like an undefended back garden, allowing the Sabi Stars to come in and out.
Unfortunately, their guesswork.
"But there is still help."
John spoke suddenly.
The gloomy, silent middle-aged man touched the top of Daisy's head and looked out the window.
At this time, the sun is about to set.
The afterglow of the setting sun painted a dazzling red in the sky, and the sky that has not yet completely darkened is dark blue, especially with a sense of layering.
The closer to the sunset, the bluer it is.
Raising his head and looking at the sky like this, John took a deep breath.
"At least I like it here."
"I like the sky like this."
"Love my bed."
"And love the food I can eat."
"I don't want some jerk to spoil this."
John uttered a rare series of words.
Jason, Brian, and McCall looked at each other and smiled.
"Although the situation is bad, thankfully, the number of traitors should be quite small!"
McCall said straight up.
In this regard, the people present did not object.
Traitors on the 'ground' must have been few.
There is most likely only one.
Because, if the number of traitors is large, there is no need for such a "step by step" at all.
It won't be impossible to find the 'Kirin Main Ship' anymore.
A 'coup d'état' with a new look, using the characteristics of the 'lurker' to control more leaders of the 'ground', is enough to make the Sabi star people become the masters of the 'ground' in a short time.
And these
Neither happened.
"Who do you think it will be?"
Brian thought.
McCall frowned too.
"Two, can you take care of the two of us?"
"We don't have your previous 'occupation'. We can get in touch with those people's names and write them down."
Jason reminded Brian and McCall.
"I'll write the list down."
McCall said immediately.
While McCall was writing the list, Bo Lun and Emily walked over.
"Your Excellency Jason, do you need to go to the 'food and wine booth' to eat?"
"Of course, I invite you."
"This is what we agreed upon."
The young man smiled sincerely.
Faced with such a smile, it was really hard for Jason to refuse.
He glanced at the three of John.
"Your Excellencies, John, Brian, and McCall, have given me considerable inspiration in the technique of 'Glory of Silver'. It is too simple to treat you to a meal. I hope that the three of you can often Come to the 'food and wine booth'."
"As long as I'm the owner of the 'food and wine kiosk' for a day."
"The three of you, like His Excellency Jason, can come and eat anytime."
Bolun immediately smiled and looked at the three of John.
While speaking, the young man performed an ancient etiquette.
"Is it 'food and wine booth'?"
Brian was a little moved.
As a 'qualified father', he hopes to take his daughter to a restaurant for a meal.
Unfortunately, this wish never came true.
And now
Seems like a good opportunity.
McCall nodded without hesitation.
He also loves food.
Of course he has heard of the name of 'Shijiu Pavilion'.
John looked at the three friends of Yidong, pondered for a while, and asked, "Can I bring pets?"
"certainly!"
Polon replied.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Let's go!"
"I'll drive!"
McCall greeted everyone.
A group of people took two cars, and just as the doors were about to close, Delbon, who had been waiting for an opportunity, rushed to the car where Cammy, Terri, and John were riding, and Brian was driving.
"what are you doing?"
Terri glared at Delbon.
Since the amulet incident, the relationship between the two parties has become extremely bad.
After the signing of the book, although they occasionally agreed to speak out, most of the time, the two were tit for tat.
According to past habits, Terry has been waiting for Delbon's counterattack.
And she
Naturally, the speech has already been prepared.
But what Terry didn't expect was that Delbon didn't even look at Terry.
He looked at John.
"Mr. John, are you short of a temporary pet?"
Delbon licked his face and asked.
John:? ?
Daisy:! ! !
"Shameless!"
Teri snapped.
Delbon ignored it at all, and just looked at John pleadingly.
He wanted to go to the 'food and wine kiosk' too much.
As for being a pet
It's only temporary, so what's the problem
Delbon thought very firmly.
Then, he suddenly felt his sleeves tighten.
Looking down, Daisy was biting his sleeve, whimpering.
Delbon subconsciously pulled out his hand.
However, he immediately thought of something.
Immediately, he showed a smiling face at Daisy.
"Daisy, don't you think I'm a good fit to walk with you by Mr. John's side?"
Delbon said softly.
"You really are the most shameless 'mystery side' person I've ever seen."
Teri yelled.
However, he signaled Daisy to let go of Delbon.
"Don't bite him, be careful not to get sick."
Teri comforted Daisy.
But Delbon didn't fight back at all, just smiled.
Under such a stalemate, the car drove all the way.
When they came to the 'food and wine booth', Delbon opened the car door graciously, John frowned slightly, and led Daisy down.
Delpon followed closely behind, bent over, rubbed his hands, looked at Daisy from time to time, and showed a big smile.
"shameless!"
Terri was so angry that she raised her foot and kicked Delbon's ass.
Delbon sensed it.
However, there was no intention of avoiding it at all.
boom!
With a muffled sound.
With an exaggerated figure and staggering steps, Delbon rushed into the 'food and wine booth'.
Everyone looked at this scene, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
Among them is Jason.
But in the next moment—
boom!
There was an explosion, and flames shot up into the sky.
'Food and Wine Pavilion' fell into a sea of flames.
The flames blazed.
Jason's smile disappeared immediately.
His eyes instantly turned cold.
