Chapter 715: Airport Attack! Who is it?
A Boeing passenger plane slowly lands at Beijing International Airport.
Lin Maoye pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose. This was the first time he had set foot on Chinese soil since he was born.
Unlike the scenes portrayed in European and American media, this ancient capital with a thousand-year history is full of high-rise buildings and a brand new look, and is in no way inferior to the economic metropolises on the west coast.
The plane taxied slowly and stopped steadily at the parking space after more than ten minutes.
Lin Maoye picked up the suitcase, pushed it across the boardwalk, and walked out of the airport arrival gate.
To his surprise, when he looked up, he saw Chen Yansen not far away.
In an instant, a warm feeling surged in his heart. He truly felt unprecedented attention, and hurriedly quickened his pace and greeted him with a smile.
At that moment, a man in a black jacket and a bucket hat walked towards Lin Maoye. As he approached Lin Maoye, he twisted his finger, and a seven-centimeter-long spike suddenly popped out of his ring.
The blade surface is matte-finished, making it difficult to notice in the noisy airport reception area.
He raised his right hand, and at the moment when he passed by Lin Maoye, he found the right moment and stabbed towards the other party's heart.
Chen Yansen, who was five meters away, noticed something was wrong and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
He quickly stepped forward, leaving the security guard beside him, and kicked the man on the right side of his waist.
"Huh? That's not right!"
The man immediately realized that something was wrong.
The blade didn't feel like it was piercing the flesh smoothly, but instead seemed to be stuck in something.
He thought he had accidentally bumped into something hard in Lin Maoye's clothes, so he immediately pulled his hand back, changed the angle, and stabbed at Lin Maoye's heart again.
But before he could do anything, he felt like he was hit by a car, and he flew two or three meters away like a rag sack.
The Fengshun security staff finally reacted and rushed forward to protect Chen Yansen and Lin Maoye, and sent two people to control the man in the windbreaker.
But as soon as they stepped forward, they were stunned.
There was no need to do anything, the man had already fainted, with blood at the corners of his mouth.
It only took three seconds.
Oh shit!
The boss's strength is too terrifying. This man's spleen might have been ruptured by the kick.
The two security guards looked at each other and thought secretly.
Lin Maoye came back to his senses and looked down at his chest, only to see a hole the size of a grain of rice on his shirt.
He took out the MP4 from his pocket, and found that it had been completely pierced by spikes from the screen to the back cover.
If it weren't for this thing stopping me, I would have lost my life.
Thinking of this, a thin layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Lin Maoye's forehead. He suppressed his fear and anger and thanked Chen Yansen: "Mr. Chen, thank you very much."
A day ago, he was asked to be questioned by the North American Anguo Association, who tortured him for a whole day before letting him go.
He knew in his heart that if he did not have a good position in the academic circles of Europe and the United States, he would have to endure a lot of suffering and hardship.
"Mr. Lin, are you not hurt?"
Chen Yansen asked calmly, his tone full of concern.
It was as if the thrilling scene just now was just a trivial matter.
"It's okay." Lin Maoye shook his head.
He couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Who did it?
Is it the Lighthouse Country?
To prevent himself from serving China's space program?
Or is this a self-directed strategy by Yunkun Aerospace and China, with the purpose of keeping themselves here forever?
The reason why he has been able to gain a foothold in the aerospace field in Europe and the United States is that he not only has a solid academic foundation, but also has the wisdom to understand the situation.
However, the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so he cannot make an accurate judgment for the time being.
Chen Yansen noticed the changes in Lin Maoye's expression and laughed in his heart: When a fool thinks about a problem, he often only goes down a dead end; but a smart person is different, he will consider multiple possibilities at the same time.
But he didn't care about such doubts!
After all, if you put yourself in his shoes, in his current situation, he would probably come to these two conclusions.
The passengers around exclaimed when they saw this!
At the same time, the passengers around witnessed this scene and exclaimed in surprise.
When the airport staff heard the noise, they rushed over, maintaining order while calling for inspectors for support.
A short while later, the inspector hurried over. Upon seeing Chen Yansen, he immediately stepped forward and politely greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Chen! Can you tell me what's going on?"
"This is Mr. Lin Maoye, a top aerospace talent I invited back from the Lighthouse Country. I happened to see him eject a thorn blade from his ring and try to stab it into Mr. Lin's heart, but I kicked him."
Chen Yansen said simply.
One kick?
Just kick the person until he passes out?
The inspector was stunned for a moment, but then he thought, given Chen Yansen's wealth and status, it was normal for him to learn some self-defense skills on a daily basis. He just didn't know who his coach was, but the force of that kick was too strong.
After hearing Chen Yansen's complete description, the inspector immediately frowned, knowing that this matter was beyond his jurisdiction.
"I'll leave this to you. I've already called Mr. Zhao from the Anguo Association. He will be responsible for the follow-up investigation and cleanup work."
Chen Yansen said lightly.
"Okay, Mr. Chen."
The inspector quickly agreed with a smile and watched Chen Yansen and his group leave.
According to common sense, since Chen Yansen injured someone, he should have cooperated with them and gone back to take a statement and conduct an investigation.
But how could he dare to waste Chen Yansen's time?
He knew better than anyone that some people could be provoked, while some people should never be touched.
Having worked in Yanjing for so long, he still has a clear understanding of this point.
After getting in the car, Chen Yansen asked the driver to drive first, then took out a bottle of mineral water from the car refrigerator, handed it to Lin Maoye, and said gently: "Mr. Lin, drink some water first to calm your nerves."
Lin Maoye took the water, took a sip, and his mood calmed down a little.
Chen Yansen looked at Lin Maoye and said seriously, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry for not being able to do thorough security work in advance for what happened today."
Lin Maoye held the cold bottle of mineral water, and the thrilling scene at the airport was still replaying in his mind.
The matte blade was only a few centimeters away from his heart. If it weren't for the MP4 in his pocket blocking it, he would probably have died on the spot.
He looked up at Chen Yansen beside him, and after considering for a moment, he asked, "Mr. Chen, who do you think sent this person just now?"
"There are many possibilities. Perhaps it's North America, Europe, Korea, Xiaorizi, or even some forces in Southeast Asia. Of course, it could also be Senlian Capital."
Chen Yansen said with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, you're joking. I absolutely don't doubt your meaning." Lin Maoye said with a wry smile.
"In short, one thing is certain: the person behind this obviously doesn't want Mr. Lin to join Yunkun Aerospace.
This was an accident. If Mr. Lin finally decides to work for Yunkun Aerospace, I will help you coordinate the resources of the Anguo Association and arrange for a dedicated bodyguard to accompany you and ensure your daily travel safety."
Chen Yansen leaned back and spoke slowly.
Lin Maoye couldn't help but frown after hearing this. He has always preferred a free and open R&D environment and is not used to being followed and watched all the time every day.
But his own safety could not be taken lightly, which made him feel a little embarrassed for a while.
"Mr. Lin, there's no need to rush into a decision. Why not visit Yunkun Aerospace's R&D center first and then take your time to consider it."
Chen Yansen saw through his dilemma and spoke immediately.
"Okay." Lin Maoye nodded in response.
at the same time.
After Chen Yansen and Lin Maoye left, the Anguo Association quickly took over the investigation of the case.
Zhao Hong personally led the team and immediately retrieved the surveillance video of the relevant areas of the airport.
The surveillance footage clearly recorded the entire process from the attacker approaching Lin Maoye to carrying out the assassination. Every detail was repeatedly studied by investigators from the Anguo Association.
At this point, investigators had already ascertained the attacker's identity and background.
Unexpectedly, this person was from Annam.
He served in the army and worked as a mercenary in Africa for two years. After returning to Annan in 2011, he opened a coffee shop to make a living.
Apart from this, there is no more useful information.
The other party's movements and bank accounts are mostly kept abroad, and the clues are scattered and hidden, making it difficult to trace the source behind them.
At present, we can only contact Annan’s Central Department and ask them to cooperate in the follow-up investigation.
Zhao Hong repeatedly replayed the moment when the attacker ejected the bayonet. The skilled movements and precise control of timing were definitely not something an ordinary mercenary could do. It was more like a killer who had received professional assassination training.
"Check who his employer was when he was a mercenary in Africa, and also check if there's anything unusual about the funding source for the coffee shop he opened after returning to Annan. Ask colleagues at the Foreign Affairs Association for assistance."
Zhao Hong instructed the investigator beside him, his voice filled with unquestionable seriousness: "If they don't cooperate, then this matter will be put on Annan's head."
After saying this, a hint of anger flashed across his brow.
Daring to cause trouble in a place like Yanjing Airport is a slap in his face and will directly affect his future.
The investigator responded, turned around and walked out of the office quickly.
Zhao Hongze turned his gaze back to the screen and analyzed it carefully.
Suddenly, he hit the pause button.
In the video, the attacker bought a bottle of water at a convenience store on the corner before entering the airport. He took off his fisherman's hat to wipe his sweat, revealing a small tattoo behind his ear.
It was a snake-like pattern, and Zhao Hong's heart sank suddenly.
He had some impression of this tattoo. In a human trafficking case uncovered by the Inspection Association last year, the arrested suspect also had the same mark on his body.
The other side.
Chen Yansen and his team have driven into the R&D center located in the Yongfeng Industrial Base.
Lin Maoye looked out the car window, and the first thing that caught his eye was a huge circular building. The exterior walls were made of special glass, which glowed with a faint dark blue sheen in the sunlight, like a space capsule floating above the ground.
The building in front of you is the landmark of Yongfeng Industrial Base and was previously owned by a P2P company.
Later, the boss of the company fled to the Lighthouse Country overnight due to business failure, and subsequent matters were left unresolved.
Afterwards, it was decided to donate this building and the surrounding industrial area of more than 400,000 square meters to Yunkun Aerospace.
"This building is the core laboratory of the R&D center. Since we are still recruiting, there are not many staff members at present. However, the equipment inside is the most advanced in China.
For example, quantum material analyzers can accurately detect the molecular structure of aerospace materials, and large vacuum simulation chambers can simulate the space environment and test the performance of rocket components under extreme conditions.
Chen Yansen looked out the window and introduced slowly.
After the car stopped, Chen Yansen led Lin Maoye through two security barriers and then walked into the core laboratory.
As soon as he entered the door, Lin Maoye's pupils shrank slightly.
In the spacious laboratory, dozens of scientific researchers in white work clothes are busy in front of various precision instruments. The LED screen displays the simulation operation data of each group in real time, and a series of complex formulas scroll on the screen.
"Mr. Lin, this is Liao Shizhe, the head of the power department and formerly the chief engineer of the First Academy of Aerospace."
Chen Yansen pointed to a man in his fifties wearing gold-rimmed glasses and introduced him.
"Mr. Lin, I've long heard of you! I've read your article 'Study on the Fatigue Strength of Aerospace Composite Materials' published in Acta Futura several times. The materials science perspectives are very inspiring!"
Liao Shizhe extended his right hand, showing great courtesy and respect.
Although he is a few years older than Lin Maoye, when it comes to his status in the academic circle, he knows that he is still a long way behind Lin Maoye.
"Mr. Liao, nice to meet you."
Lin Maoye responded with a smile, without any arrogance on his face.
Immediately afterwards, Liao Shizhe took Lin Maoye on a tour of the laboratory, and finally the two stopped in front of a quantum material analyzer.
This instrument is a new product developed and manufactured by the Science Association using the Zhulong G1051 CNC machine tool. It has extremely high resolution, which is one level higher than the equipment in Europe and the United States.
On the instrument screen, the molecular structure of aerospace composite materials is clearly presented in the form of a three-dimensional stereogram. The arrangement of each atom is clear at a glance, and even the molecular motion trajectory of the material under different temperature environments can be observed in real time.
"A new product? Honestly, the quantum material analyzer in NASA's laboratory doesn't have this level of accuracy."
Lin Maoye reached out and gently touched the instrument casing, speaking in amazement.
Chen Yansen stood behind the two of them, smiled and didn't interrupt.
Previously, in order to develop EUV lithography machines, in addition to successfully developing the Zhulong G1051 high-precision machine tool, he also improved and upgraded the technical solutions of the thin film interferometer thickness gauge.
In fact, a major technological breakthrough can usually bring development opportunities to multiple industries. For example, the little blue tablet can be used in software hardening engineering as well as in the clinical treatment of heart disease.
Therefore, with the support of various basic technological advances, the subsequent development of more sophisticated equipment is a natural thing.
…
…
"Lin Maoye was attacked and killed in China? Who did it?"
On the other side of the ocean, in the beacon country, at the headquarters of the North American Security Association, O'Connor asked in shock.
"They say they are from Annam."
Grant replied immediately.
Annamites?
O'Connor narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then instructed Grant, "Communicate with the Prism Department and focus on sorting out the intelligence in the Xiaorizi area."
"Okay, boss." Grant replied.
