"It's the fifth day, and I think everyone's patience is limited."
Tai Zhiyuan did not hide his worries with calm eyes today, but stared directly at Butler Jin in front of him, reminding the other party that the time limit for the Charter Bureau to confirm the status of Xu Le's chip had passed for a long time, and he had not yet received a definite answer.
"I'm very sorry, young master." Butler Jin couldn't seem to believe the answer he got from the Charter Bureau. After deliberating for a long time, he said in a more appropriate way: "But the chip confirmation work at the Charter Bureau has indeed gone wrong. The security personnel who died in the stadium and the identities of the military gangsters who died have been confirmed, but... it is said... when the Xu Le chip was confirmed, there happened to be a small problem in the cloud computing program of the central computer."
"What's the problem?" Tai Zhiyuan also felt a little surprise.
"I don't know, neither do the scientists and staff of the Charter Bureau, but it is said that the repair of this problem is singular, and it will probably occur once in a while. So far, I still can't figure out the law of this problem." Butler Jin smiled. Said: "It will take about six days to repair, and then we will know where Xu Le is... The good news is that at least we now know that he is still alive."
Knowing that Xu Le was still alive, Tai Zhiyuan felt relieved. Although he was shocked by how Xu Le survived the attack by mechas and those professional soldiers that day, he was even more puzzled by his disappearance, but Tai Zhiyuan was shocked. I finally feel in the mood to deal with things related to myself.
Guanjia Jin looked at the screen of the mobile phone in his hand and reported in a very calm voice: "Deputy Minister of National Defense Yang Jinsong died of an acute heart attack, and his body was cremated today. The Minister of National Defense nominated Zou Yingxing to take over the post of Deputy Minister. Approved by the Affairs Committee.”
Tai Zhiyuan closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa, thinking about the political fluctuations in the distant capital in the past few days, his mood gradually calmed down. It is obviously unusual for Zou Yingxing to be directly promoted from the post of Deputy Director of Logistics of the Ministry of National Defense to Deputy Minister. However, this appointment has not encountered any resistance within the government. The politicians who wanted to come to the capital made great concessions in these areas in order to quell the anger of the Tai family.
However, Mrs. Tai didn't seem to have any intention of giving up. At least before this case was fully investigated, the upper echelons of the Federation would inevitably experience countless conflicts and compromises again, and more people had to pay a painful price. This assassination incident is too crazy. If the Tai family does not respond strongly enough, Tai Zhiyuan, the only heir, will surely have a hard time in the federation in the future.
Just when Tai Zhiyuan was thinking about his future in silence, Butler Jin had already sorted out the most important events of the Federation in the past two days and finished reporting them into items, and then the old butler squatted and said, "Young master, you must plan for the worst. , if Mr. Xu Le is really unfortunate to pass away, we should always inform his relatives."
Tai Zhiyuan was silent for a moment and then said: "Xu Le once talked to me, he has no relatives in this world, and he doesn't even have many friends..." The corners of his lips were slightly raised and he smiled bitterly: "He is a very pitiful fellow."
"Zhang Xiaomeng and... Shi Qinghai, do you want to give me some news?" Butler Jin said. Regarding Shi Qinghai's spy status, there are not many people in the Federation who really know about it. Among them are Tai Zhiyuan and Jin Butler.
Tai Zhiyuan fell into contemplation, his eyebrows slowly and suddenly gathered together, because the two names thought of another thing. Go to Jian Shui'er's concert by yourself, where did the news leak from? Deputy Minister Yang committed suicide, and the clues from the military have long been broken.
His furrowed brows suddenly flattened, and he said indifferently, "No."
The FBI's Linhai State Field Office building is brightly lit. Shi Qinghai, who had smoked three cigarettes in a row in the coffee room, walked to the pool and patted his cheek with cold water to make his haggard spirit a little better, opened the door, and walked towards the identification department.
For the reconciliation agreement between Senator Pabble and the anti-government army, he was responsible for the bridge and information channel. In the dozens of days before the new year, he was under heavy pressure, very busy, and his spirit was very tired. On the first day of the new year, the gymnasium That incident made the entire field office tense like never before.
Not all federal officials can understand the inside story of this assassination, but after all, this vicious incident happened in Linhai Prefecture, so the Linhai Prefecture field office must undertake a lot of work.
The four departments in charge of Shi Qinghai actually have not much work to do, because up to now, they have not found any connection between this incident and the anti-government forces in the S2 region. Their main task is to filter the previously monitored Linhai Prefecture. A lot of information and intelligence, trying to find any clues from it.
But Shi Qinghai was still in a very bad spirit, because he had been worrying about someone.
"Exhibit A1-419." Shi Qinghai walked outside the warehouse of the forensic department, said to the staff behind the glass curtain wall, and handed over an evidence collection form.
The staff carefully checked the signature on the form and the electronic secondary authentication on the internal work network before slowly getting up and walking towards the warehouse. The staff member didn't know why Section Chief Shi was so interested in this evidence, and he asked for it several times in a row. However, this evidence was not important to the gymnasium case, it was just a modified military Electric stabs, and the really key evidence, as early as three days ago, had all been sent to the forensic room of the FBI in the capital.
Shi Qinghai took the military stab that was sealed in the vacuum bag, said thank you calmly, and returned to his office. He closed the door of the office, and then stared at the somewhat rough-looking but extremely cleverly designed military electric stab inside the bag in a daze.
In the case of Linhaizhou Gymnasium, Xu Le's existence was covered up intentionally or unintentionally by some people. Even with Shi Qinghai's level, it should not be known that Xu Le had appeared in the gymnasium.
But Shi Qinghai knew that because at twelve o'clock on the New Year, he was happily drinking with Xu Le in the bar, and at the same time he heard the other party happily saying that he would go to see Jian Shui'er with the prince of Tai's family tomorrow.
He was Xu Le's friend, no, he was a brother.
So he knew a lot of things about Xu Le, such as Xu Le's powerful martial arts skills, and Xu Le's interest and talent in mechanics. He stared at the military electric stab in the bag and confirmed that Xu Le must have been involved in this matter and played an extremely important role in it. Because it is clearly written in the transcript, this military electric stab has fired an arc and finally appeared in the throat of a militant.
The militant was the deputy captain of the special company of the Linhai Garrison Area.
Shi Qinghai's personal phone rang, and on the other end came the calm voice of the director of the HTD Bureau of Linhai Prefecture: "The dean is dead."
Shi Qinghai's body froze slightly, knowing that the teacher was talking about Dean Yang, the current deputy minister of defense, but the news has already been in the news, and there is no relationship between himself and the high-ranking big man, at most graduation. During the ceremony, he once shook hands with the other party. He didn't understand what the teacher meant by making this phone call.
"Be careful recently." The director's voice was very calm, "I always feel as if something wrong is happening."
Shi Qinghai didn't speak, and hung up the phone. After a moment of silence, he started to call Xu Le's phone number, but the voice still couldn't be reached.
Still unreachable sound.
Zhang Xiaomeng put down the phone in his hand a little desolately, walked among the snowy trees in the pear garden, tilted his head, and looked at the rooms at the iron gate doubtfully. I haven't seen Xu Le for several days, and I don't know where this guy has gone.
Although she served the Medellin Congressman, she didn't know what happened at the gym. She only knew that Xu Le went to a concert and suddenly disappeared.
"Wouldn't it be because she was fascinated by Jian Shui'er, let's go to her house and become a flower farmer." Zhang Xiaomeng laughed at herself, but her worries became heavier and heavier. She suddenly thought of what was written in a gossip newspaper that the girl in the next bedroom read two days ago... A gust of cold wind blew through, and her body suddenly became extremely cold, so she turned and walked towards her bedroom. She was going to find out what happened that day.
Xu Le was indeed a very lonely person. He lived to be nearly 20 years old in the Federation. However, among the tens of billions of people, only three people cared about his life and death and his safety. Unfortunately, he did not know the sincerity of the three friends at this time, because he was still in a coma at this time.
He is dreaming.
In the underground parking lot of Linhaizhou Gymnasium, in the dark space full of burnt smell, bloody smell and watery smell, he fainted, fell heavily to the ground, and Xu Le fell into a coma.
Maybe it was the excessive use of the power in the body, maybe it was the heat flow in the body, what damage did it do to the camouflage chip at the back of the neck, in short, the severe pain knocked him down instantly, and the endless darkness surrounded him. .
There is no perception in the darkness, no concept of time, I don't know when, a light suddenly flashed in the darkness, and it suddenly came, and if he didn't leave, he woke up from the coma and entered a bizarre dream.
In the dream, there are no green grasslands, galloping wild bulls, familiar mines, dull twilight, and missing faces. There are only boundless white rays of light that circulate and run in a strange way in the space in front of them. Sometimes these white rays of light are connected into a straight line that goes straight through the end, sometimes these white rays of light are automatically cut into countless shining fragments, and sometimes these white rays of light become a single point, constantly pulsating waves toward the surrounding space.
In the dream, Xu Le looked at these strange sights unconsciously, and then found that these white lights had turned into a line of words that he could understand against the dark background.
"Establish active contact, do you accept it?"
