fleet citizen

Combining all the data in the general brain, the committee found out the whole story of this matter.

Twenty-three years ago, a memory theft gang headed by Maria Johnson's second brother Odin Johnson began to commit crimes in the fleet.There are 23 or 15 people in this gang of thieves. Except for Odin Johnson, who is in charge of using spaceships as a cover, the rest of the members are petite and cute A-family boys or B-group girls. Instinctive lack of vigilance and committing crimes.However, they were not very proficient at the beginning of the neural connection, and the amount of memory that could be extracted was relatively small, so for Anna Hilbert and some early victims, only the first memory that they recalled for no more than 16 minute was extracted. memory.The memories, almost all of them about the victim's family, were of little use to the gang, nor could they rely on them to pretend to be the victim himself.

After that, as the number of attempts gradually increased, the amount of memory that the gang could extract gradually increased.Jiang Xin was their last victim. Out of the half an hour of recall time when she was reborn last time, nearly 15 minutes of her memories were stolen.The previous victims may not have retrieved the memories they needed, and the members of the theft gang did not pretend to be them.Only Jiang Xin's identity was disguised by Maria Johnson.

After Maria Johnson disguised herself as Jiang Xin, apart from getting rid of Qin Jianguo and seducing Jess Lola, her personal crush, the most important thing she did was to send three pairs of bugs equipped with controllers. The hole was transferred from the factory, and then disappeared in the fleet together with the three pairs of worm holes.When Johnson called out the three pairs of wormholes, the reason left was "the product is not up to standard." However, through further research by the committee, the factory did not have any records about the destruction of the wormholes.

Obviously, the theft group's target is the three pairs of wormholes, and in order to monitor the products of the factory, they need someone to know all the key information about the factory and pretend to be an administrator to obtain sufficient permissions.

However, based on the occupations of the gang's previous victims, it seems that stealing wormholes was not their goal in the first place.Initially, the targets they chose to steal memories were the family members of curvature drive scientists, such as Anna Hilbert.According to the analysis of the committee, the theft gang originally wanted to pretend to be the family members of the curvature drive scientists and get something from the curvature drive scientists.However, they will soon find that if they want to pretend to be their family members in front of others for a long time, let alone the memories they stole, even if they can extract all the memories of the victim, it will be difficult to achieve.Regardless of memory, the way of thinking characteristic of consciousness is difficult to counterfeit.

Later, they directly attacked several curvature drive scientists, but they still didn't seem to be able to extract the information they needed.The committee believes this is because the information they need is exactly what most curvature drive scientists don't value, so they won't start recalling it at the first moment of rebirth, and they won't be able to retrieve this information.So the theft gang shifted their target again and began to try to steal the memories of people like Jiang Xin whose work is related to wormhole technology.

Curvature drives before, and wormholes after, it can be concluded that the information they want to obtain—or, more specifically, some kind of tool they want to obtain is related to interstellar travel.And they finally disappeared with one or three pairs of wormholes. It can be speculated that they wanted to open up a new path of interstellar navigation without the control of the fleet and the colonial planetary country.This is clearly some kind of illegal activity.

As it happened, because Yuan Yu and Laiya Sili reported that a spaceship used by planetary people traveled more than 20 light-years, from the Geer colony planet Hailan to the human colony planet Godland, the committee dispatched reserve members to investigate The matter was investigated, and it was found that not long ago, humans from the planet Guangyao, whose nationality was colonized by humans, transported extremely high-density unknown items from Guangyao to Godland and Hailan respectively.The committee believes that the unknown object is the mouth of the disappearing wormhole.

The answer is already obvious. What this gang of thieves really wants to do is to connect a wormhole from Jinyao to Godland and then to Hailan. case complete.Neither the Glorious Alliance nor the Godland Alliance have established diplomatic relations with the planet Gale's government, let alone trade.Therefore, the Commission considered that this involved smuggling.

In the past, they might want to steal the distribution map of the fleet's routes to avoid all monitored routes.However, it was later discovered that any curvature-driven scientist could not remember and would not bother to memorize such a huge route distribution map, so he gave up the original plan to complete the smuggling route only by curvature spaceships, and turned to the relatively easy method of stealing wormholes. action.Moreover, in order to avoid the monitoring they would receive when they took the wormhole under the jurisdiction of the fleet, in addition to privately installing the wormhole from Godland to Hailan, they even had to install the wormhole from Guangyao to the starting point of an unknown route and the wormhole from that unknown route. The route ends at the wormhole in Godland to prevent the Fleet, Glory and Godland Colonial Planet Alliance government from discovering this passage.

The establishment of this illegal channel is costly and violates probably hundreds of laws combined by the Fleet, the Shining Alliance government, the Godland Alliance government, and the Planet Gale government.Based on this speculation, it is very likely that the things that this gang of thieves want to smuggle are also of high value, which makes them, the bourgeoisie who are already rich in human colonization, dare to take risks.

The committee speculates that the smuggling gang is so cautious that there is a high probability that they will not use cargo ships to smuggle, but are more likely to use the cargo holds of large curvature cruise ships to smuggle precious items-the colonial planetary government tends to be more relaxed about the latter. Everyone knows that many dignitaries have some not-so-legal enjoyments.Therefore, the committee will dispatch reserve members to disguise themselves as passengers of the peak class of human beings and take various cruise ships from Godland to Hailan, so as to investigate whether the cruise ship is carrying illegal goods from the Gale colony planet Hailan.

After reading these materials, Qin Jianguo sighed: "It's really worthy of being a capitalist who colonized the planet. What is that sentence? If a capitalist has half the profit, he will take risks, and if he has double the profit, he will dare to break the law. Dare to go to heaven if you have three times the benefits!"

(Note: This sentence is "If there is a 50.00% profit, it will take risks; if there is a [-]% profit, it will dare to trample on all laws in the world; if there is a [-]% profit, it will dare to commit any crime, even at the risk of being hanged", from the British economic critic Dunninger, quoted by Marx in "Das Kapital")

Compared to this, Yuan Yu had other doubts: "Why did you send me instead of you? Pretending to be a passenger usually requires a companion to cover up."

"Your companion should be Mint." Qin Jianguo said, "For planetary people, I am more like family B, and you are more like family A. It will be more troublesome to explain our relationship in this way, and--I am not myself. Love—my one-in-a-million beauty and such a rare and beautifully dyed hair will definitely stand out among the planetary people."
