Chapter 104



After Qi Yan finished his meal, the two of them took a detour and went to the Star Mapping Room of the Technical Department.

After a new star field is discovered, the mapping room will start drawing a star map. The details are complicated, including filling in the environmental information of the star field, determining the specific coordinates, diameter, and type of each planet, naming the planets and asteroid belts, etc.

However, since this new star field has been set foot by humans, the first one will prevail in terms of naming.

"...The asteroid belt near the exit of the wormhole is called the 'Venus Belt'. It is full of dust and debris, and it looks very close to dusk from a distance.

...This planet is named 'Que', which means lightning, because this rocky planet has a strong gravity and a very thick atmosphere. Every hour, tens of thousands of lightning bolts fall on the ground."

Almost half an hour had passed when Qi Yan filled in the known information. Lu Fenghan stood patiently by the wall. Except for occasionally lowering his head to process the documents temporarily handed over by various departments, the rest of the time, his eyes were openly on Qi Yan, and he was as focused as possible.

Many people in the surveying room winked at each other - what was wrong with the commander, standing there like he was stalking someone, watching so closely, was he afraid that someone would run away?

Someone even quietly wrote on the virtual screen: "We should sympathize with the worries and concerns of a 29-year-old young man facing his first love."

However, when everyone thought of the fact that they had never even had their first love, they suddenly became depressed and lost the mood to tease.

Coming out of the surveying room, Lu Fenghan helped Qi Yan adjust the loosened bandage bow on his wrist, and recalled the names that Qi Yan had just reported in detail: "Has the White Tower recorded the information of all participants in the Great Voyage Plan?"

Qi Yan nodded: "Yes, the White Tower's database saves the information of each participant. If they send back information after leaving the earth, it will be recorded."

Lu Fenghan took the opportunity to shake Qi Yan's hand: "What if they don't come back?"

"If there is no news, the White Tower will write 'not returned' on the data."

It is "not returned", not the cold "death".

It's like those tiny humans who drove simple spaceships to the vast universe to seek hope, still wandering in a corner of the sea of ​​stars, but failed to return home on time.

Qi Yan thought of the countless frozen smiling faces in the database, both male and female, with different skin colors and ages.

Although more than two hundred years have passed, "they will not be forgotten."

Technical Department.

Fantov checked the time frequently, with a layer of sweat covering the back of his neck and a chill.

Someone noticed this movement, and saw that the page of the virtual screen in front of Fantov had not been turned for a long time, and asked with concern: "Which problem was not solved smoothly? You look a little too anxious, it doesn't matter, if the task is not completed, it will not be completed. The boss looks fierce, but he won't scold you. When I finish the task in hand, I will think about it with you."

Wiping his palm on the seam of his trousers, Fantov was angry that the other party looked down on him, But in order not to be noticed, he tried to smile naturally: "No, it's a small problem, I can solve it myself."

When the appointed time came, Fantov avoided everyone, quickly left the technical department, and walked all the way to the stern of the command ship -

there were escape capsules stored there, and he had received the permission to use them. Once the "cards" placed everywhere were detonated, he could activate the escape capsules in advance and leave the command ship. It's

foolproof.

By then, whether it was Y on the command ship or the commander-in-chief himself, as well as Lorenz, Ye Pei, and everyone in the technical department, they would all turn to ashes in a second!

Fantov's eyes showed a smug look, and he felt the taste of being high and mighty, as if all the people in the expeditionary force were manipulated by him. As he walked quickly, he silently lip-synced: Boom—the sound of a command ship exploding.

His eyes were wild and ferocious.

Gradually approaching the storage area of ​​the escape pod, Fantov grasped the optical storage device he carried with him and sent a message to the person he was connected to: "Arrived at the designated location."

After sending it, he waited, but unusually did not receive a reply.

His heart skipped a beat, and his feet felt like they were stepping on cotton.

Taking a deep breath, Fantov kept hinting that nothing would happen to him, that their actions were very secret, and that no one would notice. Until now, no one in the expeditionary force knew that the rebels had approached the front.

At this moment, the communication device implanted in the personal terminal suddenly rang with the noise of the signal stream.

Fantov paused, his heartbeat quickening -

the technical department has its own communication channel, and the ship-wide communication is almost certainly only activated in wartime.

Could it be that the ambushed rebels have been discovered?

As he was guessing over and over again, a voice rang in his ears: "In fifteen minutes, the captured traitor will be publicly interrogated. Non-on-duty personnel please go to the A1-7-24 bridge. Repeat, in fifteen minutes, the..."

The captured traitor?

Looking at the message again, which still had no reply, Fantov's face turned pale and his eye slits widened.

However, no one has come to arrest him now, does that mean... he hasn't been discovered yet?

On the bridge, Metierin yawned, with a black eye. Seeing Qi Yan staring at her wound, she touched it bluntly: "There is healing gel, the commander did not deduct supplies, I just wanted to keep the wound on my face for two more days."

She hesitated to say the next words.

Lu Fenghan explained for Mei Jielin: "She was slack and was knocked to the ground by Wei Yin's punch."

Mei Jielin stared and wanted to retort that it was not one punch but several punches, but one punch and several punches did not make much difference. Lu Fenghan was right, so she had to bite her teeth and admit it. She turned her back to everyone and felt that her face had been cracked like a turtle shell.

Although they turned around, Mei Jie Lin still couldn't stop talking: "Long Xiyun, have all the deep and shallow hidden stakes been cut down this time?"

As the head of the special forces, Long Xiyun has always been involved in both fighting and internal affairs. When he was silent, the scar at the corner of his eye made his eyes look a bit sinister. He said "hmm" indifferently and added: "There is still one missing."

Mei Jie Lin turned around suddenly: "There is still one? Why didn't you arrest him directly?"

Long Xiyun: "No need, he is on the way."

This made Mei Jie Lin a little dizzy - are the hidden stakes so self-conscious now? They don't need them to do anything, they will come by themselves?

When Fantov arrived at the bridge, quite a few people had already gathered there, and there was a camera suspended in the air, which showed that this public trial would be seen by everyone in the expedition.

There were five people with electronic handcuffs on their hands, and after observing them covertly, he discovered that the person he had come into contact with was among them!

The other party was trapped in a metal chair, with his head down, and it was unclear what his expression was. At

this moment, the sweat on his palms seemed to be mixed with ice chips, and it was so cold that it penetrated his heart. Fantov began to frantically recall whether he had revealed any flaws. The noisy discussions around him and the detailed accounts of the crimes of the five people seemed to be caught in a huge turntable. The voices that fell into his ears became fragmented and upside down, and the meaning was indistinguishable.

Until Long Xiyun mentioned the bomb "cards" from the rebels and the metal pieces found in the equipment room.

Until the rustling of discussions around him.

Until his name was read out, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

At this moment, Fantov clenched his fingers suddenly, his nails digging into the flesh, telling himself that he had to calm down. He heard his vocal cords tightening, and was a little surprised: "How is it possible... what cards? I have only been to the equipment room once, but that is a routine task of the technical department. Whoever's turn it is will go."

He cast his eyes on Ye Pei again, "And I didn't go alone, Ye Pei was there at the time!"

Although Ye Pei didn't like Fantov's style, she didn't take the opportunity to accuse him.

He was not framed, but just spoke in a matter-of-fact way: "It was indeed me who went to the equipment room to check the operation status with him. I didn't pay attention to my surroundings at the time, so I'm not sure if he did anything." Fantov quickly replied: "Yes, she was there too! Why don't you suspect her?"

Ye Pei turned to him and explained: "I have been cleared of suspicion."

It was not clear how Ye Pei cleared the suspicion, but Fantov did not have time to think so much. The most important thing now was to clear himself of suspicion.

Only the two of them had entered the equipment room recently. If it wasn't Ye Pei, it could only be him!

He must not admit to this crime. Once he admits it, he is finished!

His sight fell on the five people wearing electronic handcuffs, and then moved aimlessly to Long Xiyun on the side. When a person broke into his field of vision, Fantov's breathing became heavy, his eyes lit up, and he spoke rapidly: "I know there is another suspect! He is more suspected than me!"

Long Xiyun couldn't tell whether he was impatient or not: "Speak."

"Him!" Fantov pointed his finger directly at Qi Yan who was standing next to Lu Fenghan, "It's him! No one is allowed to approach the equipment room at will, but I passed by several times and saw him appearing nearby, sneaking around! If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance, what I said is true!"

He swallowed hard, as if he had grabbed a lifeline: "If he didn't have some other intentions, why would he have to go near the equipment room? There must be something fishy!"

The people around him who were in the technical department with him fell silent.

Qi Yan, who was wearing a uniform, looked at him coldly.

Fantov took a breath and thought, there are indeed many people like him who can see clearly that Qi Yan is just pretending to be so because he has a backer behind him.

He immediately took advantage of the situation and continued to attack: "Qi Yan is an intern consultant, and he often shows disrespect to the people in the technical department because of his relationship with the commander. How could such a fool with only a good face crack the rebels' tactics in the last battle? Don't you think it's suspicious?"

His hoarse voice changed. He didn't directly state the conclusion, but used tempting questions to incite everyone's suspicion: "Is it possible that this is just a play, a performance? The rebels took the initiative to leave loopholes for him to crack, so that he can gain our trust? Is this possible?"

Fantov was very clear-headed at this time.

He knew that he could not withstand the investigation, and the probability of completely clearing himself of suspicion was not high, but if he could completely drag Qi Yan into the water, he could delay time.

Moreover, if his words of defense could arouse the suspicion of the expeditionary army, he would have achieved his goal!

As long as the commander-in-chief Lu Fenghan took into account the morale of the army and his lover Qi Yan, and did not put the crime on him immediately for the sake of safety, he would still have time and opportunity -

when the rebels come, it is hard to say who will die!

Thinking of another point, Fantov's eyes lit up and he spoke faster: "And one more thing! Why did Qi Yan insist on using a super-optical computer at that time? We all know that there are countless top-secret data in 'Nan Dou', including mobile migration and 'Mirage'! He must have a purpose! Yes, maybe he had already joined forces with the rebels in advance and took advantage of this opportunity, ostensibly to crack the enemy's tactics, but actually had already planted suspicious data in 'Nan Dou' to steal top-secret information! And Ye Pei, who went to the equipment room with me, is also Qi Yan's classmate, and they have a good relationship!"

Long Xiyun did not say anything.

Fantov was panting, his chest heaving. He looked at Long Xiyun, then at Qi Yan, whose expression remained unchanged. He always felt that under the other's cold eyes, he looked like a fool.

This perception made him unhappy. He forced himself to suppress the throbbing of veins. A bitter and sarcastic expression came out of the drooping corners of his eyes.

He slowed down his tone: "Why, I came from Odin, and I have no one to support me on the command ship, and I have no place to complain, so you decided to firmly pin the blame on me? Qi Yan has a close relationship with the commander-in-chief because of his face, so Ye Pei, who is his classmate, is not suspected. No matter how suspicious he is, the crime cannot be put on him?"

He sneered: "Okay, very good, the expeditionary force looks magnificent to outsiders, but in fact it is already rotten inside!" His

tone was filled with anger and extreme disappointment, and his eyes even turned red.

It was sincere and heartfelt.

All he had to do was point his finger at Lu Fenghan and scold him for openly shielding his lover, covering up the truth, using innocent people as scapegoats, bending the law for personal gain, and betraying the trust of the alliance.

At this time, a person from the technical department nearby spoke up: "But... according to the explanation of those secret agents, the reason why they wanted to blow up the command ship at all costs this time was because they wanted to kill Y God, but they only knew that Y God was on the command ship, and they were not sure who he was." He emphasized, "The goal of their action this time is to get rid of Y God."

Fantov naturally knew this, and the expression on his face became more angry: "Isn't it even more unforgivable to want to kill Y God?" He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "When it comes to Y God, we must investigate it further, and we need to conduct a thorough and rigorous investigation from the beginning!" He

cast his eyes far away at Qi Yan, hiding the pride of his impending turnaround very well.

"You're right. When it comes to Y, it is indeed necessary to investigate it from the beginning more strictly." After repeating the sentence slowly, noticing the two traces of complacency that Fantov inadvertently revealed, Lu Fenghan said, "But before that, I want to remind you that the so-called 'the rebels have mastered new stealth technology and have already sent a large army to overwhelm them' is fake."

Fantov's mind went blank for an instant: "What, what?"

Metzelin sneered: "The rebels only have a few people left. The Third and Sixth Legions are guarding their God's Court and the Wise Men and dare not move. They are gathering the remaining soldiers and cannot retreat. Where can there be a large army to overwhelm them? The army you conjured up with magic?"

Fantov unconsciously took a half step back and cast his eyes panickedly at the man wearing electronic handcuffs, his eyes full of disbelief.

If it's fake, it's all fake -

Impossible, absolutely impossible, it must be said on purpose to blow him up! The rebels were so powerful, how could they only have remnants left?

His ambition, his future...

Qi Yan, who had been silent all this time, spoke: "Also, what you just said seems to make sense, but the logic is not tenable."

Fantov's fingers trembled violently, and his eyes turned to Qi Yan with a slightly dull look.

Qi Yan's voice was cold and his tone was calm.

"Because I am Y."
