Chapter 61 Shocking Change
Late one night on the planet Volker, after surveying the road ahead, the team followed the planetary commander's instructions and found a place to have a meal, even though a massive alien reconnaissance starship was parked overhead.
Honestly, everyone was incredibly excited about this dinner, especially the road workers. This was their first time eating with the federal security guards after work, people they'd never dared approach before. Of course, there were also highly educated people who they envied, admired, and yearned for, sitting together.
Finally, the planet commander came over, sat down calmly, and even took the initiative to invite everyone to eat, without any airs at all.
This novel feeling made one of the workers sigh, "It's just like eating at the Independence Army."
After he said this, his expression suddenly changed and he covered his mouth with his hand, his expression extremely nervous. He realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said. He mentioned the rebels in front of the planet commander. Wasn't he stupid?
Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Shengxia turned around and asked others how they felt about the Independence Army, especially how the members of the Federal Security Team felt about the Independence Army. After all, the two sides had actually fought a war in the past.
But unfortunately, when this issue was brought up, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became silent. It was like a taboo topic. Shengxia saw the embarrassed expressions of the crowd and realized that it was probably not a good time for both parties to get to know each other again, especially since she was here.
She simply changed the subject and mentioned that compared to the traditional bread of the planet Volk, she really preferred the hot pot in the melting cave. Seeing this, the members of the Federal Security Team couldn't help but ask her if that was food from her hometown?
When Shengxia heard this, she was subconsciously stunned for a moment. When she was thinking about how to respond, a team member mentioned a new way of eating it. It was to tear the traditional bread and dip it in the hot pot soup base. The taste was simply delicious.
"Dip bread in hot pot soup?" Shengxia couldn't help but start to mask herself in pain when she thought of that scene. However, the other team members said that this way of eating was indeed delicious. It softened the hardness and sourness of the bread and complemented the saltiness and spiciness of the soup. It was a perfect match.
Seeing them nodding seriously, Shengxia could only nod along and say that she would try it when she got back.
With the topic of food, everyone started talking. They all introduced the best Volker planet food in their minds. Shengxia also found that the eastern region was different from the western region, and the mountainous region was completely different from the urban area.
Some of the repair workers were once members of the Independence Army, but because the conditions there were too difficult and they saw no hope, they could only return as illegal residents.
Fortunately, the policy here in Shengxia is very relaxed, so it is also a kind of luck for them to be reborn.
Just as everyone was discussing and the atmosphere was getting more and more heated, Wei Jie's emergency contact message broke the current excitement.
At the same time, Federal Bureau Councilman Mask, who had finally finished haggling with Shengxia about the price, hadn't even had time to relax when he received a message from an FBI investigator: "The planetary commander of Planet Volk had already published the robot dog's data forty minutes ago, free of charge, on an alien black market forum. After verification, the data is identical to the data currently in the federal database, and there are also supplementary data."
In short, while the Federation was negotiating with the planetary commander and paying a large deposit and monopoly fee, the planetary commander had already published the data directly on the black market at the request of the surrounding star field forces, and anyone could check it, completely fooling them.
You have to know that half an hour ago, when Musk and the head of the acquisition department finally finalized the price and monopoly fee with Shengxia, Musk had not even been able to get the data from Shengxia, even though he had asked several times:
"Where are the corresponding sample data and debugging data?"
"The contact you are in is out of the corresponding service area."
"That's enough, stop pretending."
Following Musk's roar, Shengxia simply pretended to be stupid and said "Hey hey".
At that time, the two were fooled by Shengxia, and even Musk himself lamented that Shengxia was "a man who responded to every word but disagreed with every word, like an old fox."
Now it seems that Shengxia had already harbored the intention of treason and was just waiting to make some money and escape from Planet Volk.
At the same time, after learning that the Federation had become so excited that it had ordered its troops to arrive at the docking point next to the planet Volk that night, and to open fire if they detected any signs of starships leaving the planet Volk, and at the same time, they had charged Shengxia with "treason" and offered a high bounty,
After being suppressed by Shengxia for so long, the leaders of the surrounding star field forces finally let go of their worries and lamented that it was still Agent Searles who had to take action.
"Now, we don't even need to do anything. They will deal with this threat first."
In the melt hole on the Volker planet, in Shengxia's office, Wei Jie blamed himself and kept repeating that if he had noticed this earlier, the situation would have been much better. Now it is almost forming a "broken window effect". Since the first data appeared on the black market, more and more professors have begun to doubt whether what Shengxia is doing is really as noble as she once said.
Therefore, in order to protect the interests of the Federation, they all began to spread the data they were responsible for, and Shengxia's bounty was doubled on the black market.
What's worse is that after these secrets were leaked, Shengxia's plan to use the military purchase funds of "robot dogs" to supplement the losses in civilian construction was completely shattered.
And Shengxia's previous blackmailing of the Federation now turned into a sharp sword stabbing at her. Someone must come out to be held accountable for this matter.
Even if Shengxia can still deliver the product as promised, the Federation, which has already paid a high price, will probably be so angry that it wants to kill Shengxia because the value of this product has plummeted.
After searching the entire Volk planet's network connection system, Xiao Ai replied to Sheng Xia firmly: "The information was definitely not leaked from Volk planet."
midsummer:……
At this time, no one knew what was going on. The entire Rongdong suddenly became turbulent. When Shengxia and Wei Jie turned around, they found that the people in the Rongdong, including the group of horse caravans from the mountain area, had unconsciously gathered in the core area and looked up at her office.
Fu Qianshen quickly contacted Shengxia and asked her to check the internal news of the Rongdong. Just fifteen minutes ago, a piece of news that "the planetary commander turned out to be a traitor and used the people in the Rongdong of Volk planet as hostages to threaten the Federal Supreme Bureau" exploded in the Rongdong like thunder.
The news also detailed the total amount of money that Shengxia had extorted from the Federation, and revealed that the amount was deposited into a black market account, but the public account of the Volker Planet Government Hall, which was supposed to follow the procedure, did not receive the money.
There are false news among them, but there are also true news. The true and false news are mixed together, making it difficult to clearly distinguish right from wrong.
The fact is, when the Federation realized that this transaction might be a scam, they immediately intercepted the money. Therefore, the public account of the Volker Planet Government Hall did not receive the money. However, if it is said that the money was deposited into a black market account, it is pure stupidity and fabrication.
But for the people of Planet Volker, this conspiracy theory is exactly what they are familiar with, so if the government hall did not receive money from the federation through the public account, it is very likely that it went into Shengxia's private pocket.
What's worse is that Wei Jie didn't even receive the news that this news would be broadcast, and Fu Qianshen had just seen this news. This was enough to show that the press, the government hall, and even some senior officials of the federal security team had clearly stood on the side of the federation.
Wei Jie lowered his head and thought about it carefully. It seemed that they really couldn't be blamed for this kind of thing. After all, the data leaked in the black market could be verified. It said that Shengxia was suspected of treason... Humph, it was quite righteous for this group of people to choose to form a united front with the Federation.
Fortunately, there were some rational people who began to gather near the core area. They looked up at Shengxia's office, hoping that Shengxia could come out and give them an explanation.
Faced with this obvious frame-up, Wei Jie even scratched his fingers until they bled without realizing it. He thought of many ways, but every way seemed to be a dead end. After all, when others believe you are guilty, it is really difficult to exonerate yourself, let alone the planetary commander. Fund flow, military dispatch, engineering construction... Even if she is really innocent, people will not care about her investigation results if she investigates them one by one.
Faced with this nearly unsolvable situation, Sheng Xia turned around and said to Wei Jie with a smile, "It seems my enemies really want me dead."
"Isn't this obvious?!" Wei Jie was anxious.
"But, the more the enemy wants me dead, the more it means I did something right, right?"
This sentence blocked all the words that Wei Jie wanted to say. At that moment, Wei Jie thought of many things, and because he thought of so many things, he didn't even know how to say what he wanted to say.
But at this time, Shengxia had already reached out and patted his shoulder, then walked out of the meeting room like a soldier going to die. At this moment, Wei Jie's eyes fell on the last picture on Shengxia's laptop:
[Federal A-level wanted criminal, former planetary commander of Shengxia Walker, currently has a bounty of 3.2 billion star coins. Extremely dangerous and agitating.]
Before Wei Jie could frown and turn around to chase Shengxia out, he heard a loud "bang", as if... someone fell from a high place.
At that moment, Wei Jie's heart seemed to stop beating.
No... No, it couldn't be that Shengxia had an accident or she... just died to prove her integrity?
