Ten Billions of Stardust on the Wire

"Lost contact! Y Kong-001 lost contact!" The staff at the podium of the Yan Mansion screamed.

Ykong-001 suddenly lost contact with the outside world the moment it just entered the M area, and the escort boat under Yan Zhengdong was completely isolated from the bee colony matrix controlled by Wei Qingyu. Ykong-001 has completely become an isolated island.

The crew in the cabin reported to Yan Zhengdong that the aircraft was in an idle state.But the reinforcements promised by Yan Zhengdong have not yet arrived.

A large number of monitoring probes like marching ants bit Ykong-001, and the dense particles wrapped the aircraft and swallowed it into the darkness. Ykong-001's external detection and positioning failed, blind and deaf, like an old dragon in its dying years, tossing in a storm.

A sudden power outage caused the YK-001 to plummet nearly 800 feet in the dark.The emergency power supply light flickered on, and the metal in the cabin glowed red.

In the heavy red, Wang Yang found that there was an extra person in the cabin!

It's Wei Qingyu, Wei Qingyu's projection.

He stood up from the sofa and bowed slightly to his mother, An Xin, whom he had never met before.When seeing Wang Yang, Wei Qingyu's expression became subtle.

"Consultant Wang, we met again," he said. "At the roundtable meeting of the supervision and investigation team eight days ago, An Qi was An Xin, Yan Yuhang was Yu Linyuan, and Li Shengfeng was me. No one could have foreseen such a scene. The younger generation realized later, only to find out that you are so interesting when you look back."

The people sitting at the round table each had their own ulterior motives, who could have foreseen...Wang Yang felt ironic, but he immediately realized that such a scene was not something no one could have expected——

Wang Yang recalled the evening conversation with Yu Linyuan on the 25th. Yu Linyuan said: On the night of the [Ling Chi case] incident on November 11, someone hacked into the security system of Blue Mill and sent him a document listing the members of the supervision and investigation team. , the four key circled people in the list are exactly: An Qi, Yan Yuhang, Wang Yang, and Li Shengfeng.

It was fifteen minutes after Yu Linyuan received the list that the news of Wei Qingyang's death was exposed.

In other words, before Wei Qingyang's death was made public, the list of members of the supervision and investigation team had been confirmed.

Yu Linyuan couldn't dig out the source of the document's information, and the opponent's defense system was unbreakable, even more difficult to overcome than the information barrier of Faust headquarters.

If Yu Linyuan did not lie, then the scene at the round table meeting eight days ago was obviously premeditated by someone or someone.

Judging from Wei Qingyu's tone, it seems that he is not the one who planned everything.

Wei Qingyu asked Yan Zhengdong and An Xin to sit down, as if the two were guests from his own home, and he didn't think he was the intruder at all, "Let's talk here if we have anything to say."

He smiled at An Xin, spreading his palms like a child begging his parents for pocket money: "Give me the third restriction key, and I will stop the air strikes in Area A.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to threaten, this is—" Wei Qingyu hesitated for a moment, as if trying to choose his words. "A deal, it's a deal, in your human terms," ​​he said.

Yan Zhengdong's lion-headed walking stick paused, "Son, you are not qualified to negotiate a deal with us."

Wei Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and his outstretched palms drooped angrily, "You didn't bring them? I thought you came here to give me the key specially. Why bother you to make a trip, I'll go directly to An Zhuoyue."

"How dare you!" An Xin shouted.

"Sorry, I dare," Wei Qingyu didn't hesitate, and his figure flashed back.He can almost forcibly break through all human information defenses.As long as he wants, he can turn himself into data, galloping like a flash in all the servers and free terminals in the 32 regions.

After Wei Qingyu left, the monitoring probe attached to Ykong-001 retreated, and the external detection system was restored. Wang Yang immediately went to the pilot's seat to adjust the course, "He is going to the dangerous shelter, we have to go back and stop him."

"It can't be stopped, the second restriction key has been unlocked, and the security system of [Danger Shelter] can't stop him for long," An Xin said.

Yan Zhengdong was leaning on his cane. His lion-headed cane was not a symbol of prestige, but a pillar for an old man to support his body.When he was young, the [Danger Shelter] had just started construction, and when the building was completed, he was also old.That is the strongest information bastion recognized by the KU-32 United City-State, and there has never been a precedent for successfully invading the shelter.

In the eyes of Wei Qingyu, the information fence built by human beings is vulnerable.

If he got the third restriction key from An Zhuoyue... Yan Zhengdong didn't dare to think deeply about this possibility.

However, Yan Zhengdong found that An Xin was extraordinarily calm, and Wang Yang did not overreact. This was beyond Yan Zhengdong's expectation, as if there was some secret between the two generations.

Yan Zhengdong has been the chief of the bureau for so many years, he is old and his eyesight is sharp, so he can't fail to see the clues. "Aren't you worried about excellence?" He asked An Xin.

"She's my daughter, and I'm sure she can handle it well."

Yan Zhengdong pointed at Wang Yang with the tip of his cane: "Is there something to hide from me?"

An Xin stood in front of Wang Yang and said, "Isn't the Yan Bureau also hiding something? Why haven't your old comrades' reinforcements arrived yet?"

Yan Zhengdong didn't intend to hide it: "He's here. It's been a while."

The hatch of Ykong-001 opened, and a gust of chilly wind poured into the cabin, with snowflakes in the wind, which was the second snow this year.A huge black shadow emerged from the sparse snow curtain, like a city in the sky. The docking station of Ykong-001 extends out, like the rainbow bridge leading to Asgard in mythology.

An Xin took Wang Yang's hand and patted the back of his hand lightly like in the cabin before.The rhythm of her slapping is [password], Wang Yang translated it in his heart, and An Xin told him: That is the Hall of Valor.

Wang Yang's heart sank.Wang Zicheng signed the [Hall of Valor Confidentiality Agreement] and voluntarily entered the Hall of Valor...

But Wang Yang clearly saw a blue windmill in the middle of the shadow!It is exactly the same as the signboard at the underground entrance of Blue Mill!Blue Mill is flying? !

An Xin explained: That symbol is not a windmill, but the Buddhist word "卍", implying immeasurable merit and endless samsara.However, the Hall of Valor is indeed a part of Blue Mill, hidden in Blue Mill.

Immeasurable merit?Reincarnation?Satire!Capitalized sarcasm!

Secrets are often hidden in mundane places, and now Wang Yang finally understands: the regional laws and massive capital investment in the Moline District of M City are not intended to create "Las Vegas for gamblers, Shan State for drug addicts, Amsterdam for predators" ’, but to hide the truth from under the eyelids of the world.

There was a pair of figures at the end of the plank road at the Ykong-001 docking platform, and Wang Yang recognized them almost at a glance——Wei Xiaoqian, the chairman of the merchant, and his wife Wanjing.Both of them were dressed in solemn black, only their hair and the rose in front of Wanjing's lapel were white.

They are the reinforcements that Yan Zhengdong mentioned.

Wei Xiaoqian looked more stooped than in the news reports a few days ago.Wan Jing still looked dignified, she did not support Wei Xiaoqian as before, the two stood apart from each other, as if there was a gap between them.

Wang Yang has a momentary impulse to grab Wei Xiaoqian by the collar and ask Wei Xiaoqian to return his Zicheng to him.

Wang Yang did exactly that.

I'm sick, I'm easily agitated, and I just look gentle on the surface. The comrades in the organization of the E District Bureau can attest that I have been receiving psychological soothing treatment.In case I accidentally hurt someone or killed someone... Wang Yang stabbed Wei Xiaoqian's face like a knife.The eyes that want to kill can't be hidden.

"Give Wang Zicheng back to me."

Wei Xiaoqian's thin jaw trembled, and he couldn't say a word.In his eyes magnified by the lens, there is a kind of sadness unique to the elderly. Wang Yang feels soft-hearted, but the strength in his hands does not mean to relax at all.Wan Jing was silent at the side, expressionless, like a dull puppet.

"Wang Yang! That's enough." Yan Zhengdong said.

Yan Zhengdong and Wei Xiaoqian passed by, and walked straight to the depths of the Hall of Valor. His voice echoed in the colonnade of the empty foyer, like a bell, "The matter has become a big deal! I can't handle it. Old Wei, what should you do?" Know."

Both Yan and Wei were from the military and had witnessed the conclusion of the KU-32 alliance with the Star City Alliance. Yan Zhengdong and Wei Xiaoqian had served in the same team, had a friendship with each other, and even made military exploits together.Yan Zhengdong knows what kind of person Wei Xiaoqian is.

Wei Xiaoqian was keen on playing with technology when he was young, and Yan Zhengdong knew that he had a bright mind, and there was a fanatical and obsessive drive in his bones.He has the word "qian" in his name, but his ambition is not small.Being ambitious is not a bad thing, Yan Zhengdong has always admired him as a comrade in arms.

The past is unbearable, but when we meet again now, everyone is an old man with mottled beard and hair.Don't think that every old man in his dying years was once a young man in his prime.

When An Xin came to Yan Zhengdong five years ago, he suppressed the matter for Wei Xiaoqian's sake.After all, the illegal bionic human production chain already existed when KU-32 United Star City was still KU-16 United Star City, and Wei Xiaoqian came to power only to maintain the operation of the original project.

However, Yan Zhengdong didn't expect Wei Xiaoqian to be so ruthless this time.

Out of control, but not completely out of control.If Wei Qingyu didn't have the third restriction key, he wouldn't be able to achieve success, which is equivalent to being stillborn.

"He can't get the third key," Wei Xiaoqian adjusted the collar wrinkled by Wang Yang.Wan Jing hesitated to speak, and followed behind Wei Xiaoqian.

An Xin strode up to follow, and said firmly, "Of course he can't get the third key!"

Yan Zhengdong, Wei Xiaoqian, Wan Jing, and An Xin walked towards the Hall of Valor, and Wang Yang looked at them as if he saw the older generation walking towards the end of their glorious life.Wang Yang followed their footsteps.

From the trestle of the docking platform to the outer corridor of the Hall of Valor, a pair of sentinels stood every five meters. Their faces were exactly the same, like playing cards, and they were all bionics allowed by law.Behind the colonnade of the main hall, there is a claustrophobic oval hall under two steps of steps. A beam of gloomy light from the roof pours down, adding a bit of divinity to the once sensual happy place of the Blue Mill, like the lighting tower of a church, and also like The round hole above the birdcage covered by a black cloth.

Wang Yang saw two people standing in the beam of light, the person he dreamed of seeing, and the person he never dreamed of.
