Chapter 62
At the edge of the survival barrier, even the air seemed to freeze.
Even the starships passing nearby had to circumvent it in advance and pass through the barrier from another source. Of course, this was because the Public Security Bureau starship was hovering and occupying the shipping lane.
The security guards still have to occupy the waterway.
Four pairs of angry eyes shifted from Xiyue to Qiao Mingjin: "Lieutenant Colonel Qiao, she..."
Qiao Mingjin's face was solemn. He used his consciousness to call up the retina screen inside the mecha, then turned it off. He said softly, "It's okay. You can go now."
There are many websites and forums on the Star Network. I don’t know where Xiyue posted that passage. Although the popularity and public opinion fermented quickly, it still takes some time.
The security guards evacuated in a hurry.
In the driver's seat, Xiaozi's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything in the end.
He accompanied Xiyue for the entire day, from the detonation of pollution at the garrison in Sector 33, to rescuing the manned starship, to chasing people in Sector 45... No matter how slow he was, he could still sense that Xiyue's mood was not right.
From relaxation, to tension, and then to secret forbearance and repression.
It was as if a white cloud gradually turned into a dark cloud filled with angry thunder.
Why doesn’t the general come over to take over?
For the first time, Xiaozi felt a little resentful towards Yuan Xu.
Just as he was thinking about it, Qiao Mingjin came closer. The half of his face beneath the transparent mask didn't show any anger. "Miss Xi, are you here to see General Yuan?"
"That's right." Xi Yue smiled. "Captain Qiao, you've arrived just in time. The admiral went to your secretariat. You should have seen him. Please show me the way."
Before Qiao Mingjin could respond, she suddenly changed her tone: "I'm sorry. It wasn't Captain Qiao, but Lieutenant Colonel Qiao. Congratulations on your promotion."
During the investigation of the suspect, he was promoted because of other cases. Not only did the suspect not get caught, but he was also congratulated openly... This scene is somewhat ironic.
Qiao Mingjin's electronic voice turned a bit colder: "General Yuan is not in the secretariat. He should be back at the hotel. I'll take Miss Xi there."
"Lieutenant Colonel Qiao is so thoughtful." Xiyue gestured to Xiaozi to open the hatch. "Then thank you very much."
Of course Qiao Mingjin would not sit on it. With a thought, he flew to the secretariat first.
For the convenience of official business, the secretariat and the central garrison are located in the same place. There are several top-tier interstellar luxury hotels nearby, and most of the guests staying there are senior military officers from various local star regions.
Yuan Xu was no exception and stayed in one of the hotels called "S".
The meaning is very good, S-class mecha warriors. As for why they don't use the highest-level "Super S"... I guess the hotel is worried about too few customers.
If you look at the entire galaxy, you can count the number of Super S-class mecha warriors on one hand.
However, no one, whether hotel staff or other guests, knew that a guest with super S-level potential was in the lounge, spraying the wine in his mouth all over the table.
"Are you kidding me..." Yuan Xu stared at the laptop. "Isn't it just that I didn't reply to the message? Is it necessary to be so mad?"
Such a big change in plan, and you didn't even send a message to inform us?
The management methods of local star regions are generally the same, so after the reforms were implemented in Xihai, Star Region 33 seemed out of place, which further led to people in the Legion's jurisdiction increasingly gathering in certain specific forums when surfing the star network.
A post with the "Supervision Order" appeared on the light screen on one of the forums and was being pushed to the front page at a speed visible to the naked eye.
While Yuan Xu was stunned, the post was completely pinned to the top by the administrator.
Exploded.
Yuan Xu came back to his senses and quickly sent a message to Xi Yue: "Where are you?!"
This time it was his turn to wait.
Of course he couldn't wait, so he reread the accusation in the text, caught the words "expelled by the Central Corps", and looked up.
It is obvious that Xiyue must have arrived in the central star region.
Yuan Xu immediately pressed the button on the side of the computer, and the strange energy surged to his feet, and he rushed out of the lounge.
Emergency brake at the hotel entrance.
He looked at Xiyue, then at Qiao Mingjin beside Xiyue, his eyes moving back and forth several times, and gave Qiao Mingjin a faint smile: "Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Qiao, just send it here."
Qiao Mingjin stared at him deeply, nodded, and turned around before leaving: "General Yuan, what are you going to do?"
The person received it, but the words that would inevitably trigger a public opinion storm were still published on the Star Network. It would be difficult to explain to General Bo without asking any questions.
Just looking at Yuan Xu's hurried look just now, I'm afraid even he didn't know Xi Yue would be so impulsive.
Yuan Xu naturally understood what Qiao Mingjin was asking, but before he could open his mouth, Xi Yue answered, "Is it okay for Lieutenant Colonel Qiao to worry about the internal affairs of the 33rd Regiment?"
This is outrageous and unreasonable.
The accusation mentioned the Central Star Region several times, putting it in opposition to everyone in the 33rd Legion. As a member of the secretariat, Qiao Mingjin naturally had the position to inquire and even intervene.
However, Xiyue had no intention of arguing with him at all, and walked into the lobby without looking back.
Yuan Xu didn't understand Xi Yue's intention, and didn't know what to explain. He nodded to Qiao Mingjin and followed him.
Qiao Mingjin's eyes were gloomy.
Perhaps... just as General Bo explained, it is indeed necessary to monitor their actions.
However, just as he raised his leg, a message came from the light brain.
"Xie Wenbo: Lieutenant Colonel, there's a result!"
Qiao Mingjin paused, retreated outside the door, found a deserted place, turned on the mecha, turned on the sound shielding function, and then called Xie Wenbo.
Admirals Bo Yucheng and Wan Bing urged him to end his investigation into Yuan Xu, but abandoning the investigation halfway was clearly not Qiao Mingjin's style. Leveraging his established relationship with Team Feng Yang, he commanded the team from the Central Star Region, allowing them to return to the local regions to continue their investigation.
Two days later, we finally got a new clue.
Xie Wenbo's voice was excited. "I asked a friend to go to great lengths to separate the sample, and sure enough, they found biological information from the contaminated material on the handlebars of the motorcycle. It should be the skin flakes left by the rider. Lieutenant Colonel, guess who the biological information matches?"
He couldn't keep it a secret, let alone keep it a secret, so he just shouted it out: "Xiyue! The person who rode a flying motorcycle into Ma Liu's house was Xiyue!"
Qiao Mingjin didn't say anything, but his eyes narrowed behind the mask.
Xie Wenbo: "Lieutenant Colonel, didn't you team up with the nameless mecha to eliminate the pollution? Then it must be Xiyue! Too exaggerated, has she been hiding the fact that her mental power has awakened? To be able to team up with Lieutenant Colonel, her level must be at least S, right?! Oh no, or did she just awaken not long ago? This, this, this is even more exaggerated, she is already 21 years old, it is unheard of for someone to awaken high-level mental power so late..."
"I understand. Keep the clue secret for now and wait for my notification." Qiao Mingjin hung up the phone.
Xie Wenbo has a good brain, but he is too noisy and it affects his thinking.
However, from Xie Wenbo's perspective alone, the possibility that Xiyue was an unknown mecha was indeed very high. However, Qiao Mingjin, facing her directly, naturally denied this possibility immediately.
After all, in addition to the nameless mecha, there was also a familiar figure in the secondary pollution area that looked very much like Xiyue.
There was no need for mecha protection when the pollution just broke out and the tide was most violent, which means that Xiyue didn't need a mecha at all and could move freely in the contaminated area.
Xiyue had appeared at the locations where Ning Peng, Ma Liu, and Gong Daimin died. Qiao Mingjin had no doubt that she had also appeared at Tang Zhishang's kidnapping den, as Xiyue had personally admitted to traveling to Star Sector 44 on a manned starship that same day.
Everyone died from the pollution, their bodies torn to pieces.
All the signs combined lead to only one possibility: the God of Pollution.
She is a long-standing existence in the galaxy, an existence that cannot be confirmed but also cannot be disproven, the God of Pollution!
Qiao Mingjin looked up at the hotel building that towered into the sky. Under the cover of night, the lights nearby could not dispel all the dark corners.
There is no point in surveillance.
But before deciding what to do, he still needs to confirm the result.
-
After parking the starship, Xiaozi hesitated when he walked to the elevator hall.
In fact, he already knew where Yuan Xu lived, but it was pointless to tell Xi Yue. Without Yuan Xu showing up, it was impossible for him to bring a garbage citizen into the central star zone on his own.
Never mind, let the Admiral face the low pressure himself, he thought.
In the luxurious hotel room, Xi Yue's calm look blocked all the questions in Yuan Xu's throat.
The atmosphere seems wrong.
The tension when we first met was not as inexplicably frightening as it is now.
After a short but long silence, Xi Yue asked: "Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"
"What?"
Yuan Xu asked casually, and suddenly remembered the message Han Yi sent on his Xipo light brain: "Mom is looking for you."
Combined with Xiyue’s question, the situation couldn’t be more obvious. Xiyue had discovered it!
She found out something and asked Han Yi, but Han Yi couldn't explain it. Han Yi knew she would come to see him, so he sent the message in advance.
That's a warning!
"I went to see Han Yi." Xi Yue said slowly, observing Yuan Xu's expression, "He told me that this world..."
Yuan Xu suddenly jumped forward and covered her mouth.
He covered her body so tightly that Xiyue couldn't tell whether his hand was hot or cold, but she could feel that the man's muscles were tense and tense.
Yuan Xu stared into her eyes and said, "I don't believe it."
Xiyue didn't struggle, but just narrowed her eyes.
Under the spotlight, her light-colored pupils looked a bit like a cat, but more like a raging python that had endured to the extreme.
Yuan Xu looked away and loosened his grip a little, but still covered Xiyue's lips and chin.
He lowered his head slightly. "He couldn't possibly tell you that nothing... is safe."
So nervous that I didn't even dare to express my fear of danger.
Xi Yue glanced at him calmly and tried to take a step back, but failed. Yuan Xu's other hand wrapped around her back. So she raised her left foot and stomped it down hard.
She dyed her hair black today, wore a black corset dress, and a pair of small leather shoes. Although the heels were short, they were enough to make Yuan Xu bend down like a shrimp.
“You…don’t say…”
"I killed Gong Mao."
Yuan Xu was startled and looked up at her. The veins on his neck bulged with pain and began to turn red.
"W-what?"
Xiyue acted as if nothing had happened. She pulled over a chair, sat down, crossed her legs, adjusted her skirt, and then looked at him leisurely.
"Didn't Xizi tell you?" Xiyue smiled. "I thought you sent him to help me because you wanted to keep an eye on me."
Yuan Xu wanted to say, "It's too insincere of you to doubt your partner like this," but before he could finish his words, Xi Yue continued talking.
"The Central Security Guards investigating the Miyagi Dai Min case discovered Miyagi Mao in the laboratory and escorted him back to the Central Military District for trial. That old fellow was very good at disguise. He attacked and injured people on the way, stole the Security Guards' mecha, and even destroyed our starship... Oh, it was your starship, Admiral Yuan."
"Gong, Mao?" Yuan Xu quickly recalled the name. After all, not many people in interstellar history had achieved the rank of commander. "Didn't he die a long time ago?"
Xi Yue didn't want to answer this question, and said calmly: "I killed him. Do you know what he called me before he died?"
"What..." Yuan Xu didn't finish his question.
His intuition told him that the answer to this question would be fatal.
So he covered his ears like a naughty child: "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen."
At the same time, walk out the door.
"There are many things that we can't tell you, not because we really can't. Since you choose to cooperate with me, you should trust me. At the very least, you have to trust Han Yi, right?"
"He called me Commander-in-Chief."
Xi Yue interrupted in a calm tone, and then Yuan Xu heard the sound of a chair falling to the ground, as if breaking hard floor tiles.
Of course, a wooden chair couldn't break the hard floor tiles, but the sound, coupled with Xiyue's words, not only broke the confusion in Xiyue's heart, but also broke Yuanxu's long-standing confusion.
"Gong Mao called me commander-in-chief." Xi Yue's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, and her suppressed emotions were almost on the verge of pouring out. "Why? Yuan Xu, who are you? Who am I? Where is this place?!"
Xi Yue was responded by the sound of a door slamming.
Yuan Xu ran out.
-
It is difficult to kill a pollution god, as she is indestructible in the pollution zone.
But it's also simple. Just force her out of the contaminated area and force the pure space to passively disappear.
With two Level 5 pollution zones stacked together, even the most violent pollutants couldn't stop the combined efforts of the S- and A-class mecha warriors. Furthermore, with Shi Hanyi suppressing the pollutants, Xiang Jia alone could easily strangle all the mutant plants.
After another burst of pure spiritual energy, all the pollutants were eliminated. Chen Yilan stumbled to the ground and almost fell.
This means that her pure space has disappeared.
However, Xipo and the other two knew that this was only a temporary situation. After all, Chen Yilan had already opened several Level 5 contaminated areas. The remote control in her hand seemed to be endless. Every time she rushed forward while her body was unstable, the pure space would always appear in time to block all attacks.
Having said that, there is no other way except to fight fast with fast.
Having had several experiences, Xipo had already built up the propulsion force of the mecha to its extreme. When Chen Yilan began to fall, he rushed up like a ray of black light.
He must kill Chen Yilan before she detonates the next contaminated area.
However, the sound capturer suddenly picked up a deafening gunshot.
As blood oozed from Chen Yilan's chest, Xipo stopped, just one step away from her. He was tall, and he looked over Chen Yilan's shoulder, looking behind her.
Chen Yu sat astride the motorcycle, panting, holding the gun very steadily in his hand.
Two seconds later, his trembling hands dropped the gun and he fell off the saddle.
He recognized the familiar figure.
"……mom?"
Chen Yilan turned her head slightly, but didn't turn back to look at him.
Chen Yu rolled and crawled over: "Mom, why is it you, why..."
That was a light bomb.
After entering the human body, it will explode into a ball of extremely high temperature light. It melted Chen Yilan's spine and ribs, and even destroyed half of her heart.
The moment she turned her head, she was dead.
But until the last moment, Chen Yilan still had that calm and kind smile on her face, and in her dimming vision, the traces of the newly received instructions gradually faded.
Special instructions received
Pollution Level: 1
…
Under the order that could not be disobeyed, she finally chose her second mission as a derivative of programmed life.
Mother.
