Chapter 2497 Unstable changes (don't touch me during the rolling!)(1/2)
For Fang Zheng, the attack on the Imperial Guerrilla Association was none of his business.
But there is another thing that is very fatal.
"...You mean the scheduled ship disappeared?"
Looking at the workshop director in front of him, Fang Zheng frowned, while the latter nodded.
"Yes, we received news that the regular ship that was responsible for transporting optical krypton machine components disappeared in the Perth area and is missing."
"Can regular ships also disappear? Didn't they crash?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng was also stunned for a moment, because Liber is a mountainous country, so it does not rely on railway transportation like the Republic and the Empire, but mainly uses airships for transportation.
"The military has searched the area where the incident occurred, but no signs of the airship crashing were found. At present, it is likely that it was hijacked. The military has now issued a no-air order in the Perth area, but as of now
So far there are still no clues.”
"I see………"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng nodded.
"That batch of parts is important?"
"It's an order from the empire. If everything goes well, it will be delivered in three months. The core components provided by Starlight Technology are also included."
No wonder the military is so nervous. It would be fine if it was just a simple airship that was hijacked, but there are parts of the optical krypton machine on this airship. Although Founder is very sure that these guys don't have core manufacturing technology, they just get the parts.
It's of no use, but attacking an airship equipped with optical krypton machine parts is itself a quite serious situation.
"Anyway, I'm just informing you. I hope you will be careful. We don't know yet whether the other party is coming for the optical krypton machine. They may also attack Starlight Technology. Now the Royal Army is doing its best to ensure the security of the Chase area.
It should be no problem here."
"Understood."
After receiving the news from Madok's workshop director, Fang Zheng returned home, gathered the little girls together, and explained to them what had happened.
"Is there such a thing?"
Hearing this, Ling looked quite surprised, while Tio frowned and remained silent.
"Then Master, what do you think?"
Anjie silently poured a cup of tea for Fang Zheng, and then asked.
"We still don't know exactly what happened. We only know that according to the explanation of Maddock's workshop director, the regular ship that was supposed to arrive on time did not arrive at the port. At first, the staff thought it was a delay, but after communicating with the other party,
There was still no response, so they hurriedly reported it. Initially, the military considered it from the perspective of an accident, but after walking around the route no wreckage was found, so it was determined to be missing - of course, as of now
, the possibility of being captured is greater."
Fang Zheng picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea before continuing.
"In this case, there are two possibilities. One is that someone disguised as a passenger sneaked into the regular ship, and then suddenly launched an attack on the way, attacked other people and gained control of the regular ship."
After all, the current security measures in this world are not very strict. Founder has also taken a regular ship. There are no security measures at modern airports such as body searches, inspections and salutes. It is just like taking a ship. You only need to check the ticket before boarding.
Under such circumstances, if there is any organized force that really wants to hijack a scheduled ship, it is possible.
"What's the other possibility?"
Enaya also looked at Fang Zheng and asked curiously.
"That is, the other party hijacked the scheduled ship through an armed airship - if this is the case, then it is likely to be done by other countries, and the purpose is probably to steal our core components and the design data of the optical krypton machine
.After all, not everyone can build an airship, and ordinary criminal organizations do not have the ability to manufacture and maintain it. Therefore, if something like this happens, it is most likely those who have the ability to build an airship.
The country did this intentionally.”
Having said this, Fang Zheng drank the tea in the cup and stood up.
"And if that's the case, then these guys won't be stupid enough to directly send soldiers from their own country to take action. They will most likely hire a hunting group, so...Philip."
"exist."
After hearing Fang Zheng's order, Fei stood up.
"Come with me to the Perth area. You can snatch my things and try to run away. How can it be so easy? Enaya, Anjie, Ling, Tio, you are responsible for protecting the safety of the workshop——Enea,
I will leave a group of aliens here under your command. If any outsiders dare to break in without permission, they will be shot to death."
"Yes sir."
Founder has always been a resolute person. After making the decision, he came to Starlight Technology, said hello to Towa, told Towa what happened recently, and asked her if she found anything inside the company.
The suspicious person was reported immediately. Towa naturally nodded in agreement to Fang Zheng's request, and then Fang Zheng drove on the road and took Fei away from Chase and headed for the Perth area.
Compared to the Chase area, the current atmosphere and situation in the Perth area is indeed quite serious and tense. Looking along the way, not only did the soldiers set up a tight blockade, they even stopped regular ship sailings, which made the prices here.
It also rose sharply. It can be seen that the disappearance of the airship carrying core components is indeed a very big problem for the Liber royal family.
Since the current investigation of this matter was led by the military, Fang Zheng also went directly to the Haken Gate and met General Morgan again.
"It's really shameless, Mr. Fangzheng."
Looking at Fang Zheng, General Morgan seemed speechless.
"I didn't expect that something like this would happen in the Perth area. If I had known about this, I should have thought of ways to strengthen the alert on regular ships..."
"There are indeed some oversights, but for now, these issues can be discussed later."
Fang Zheng waved his hand.
"We at Starlight Technology will also participate in the investigation, so if possible, can you explain the current progress of the military's search?"
"Well, of course, then..."
"Dong dong."
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then a soldier walked in.
"Report to the general, there is an envoy sent by Mayor Maybell who wants to see you."
"Oh? Miss Maybelle?"
After hearing the report, General Morgan nodded.
"Okay, let them come to see me."
"yes."
After giving the order to the soldiers, General Morgan looked at Fang Zheng again.
"As you know, we currently have no reports or clues about the crash of the spaceship. This shows that it is more likely to be hijacked. Therefore, we have implemented a strict intelligence blockade on the empire. Currently, no one has learned this information.
There are only a few people... Well, I'm sorry, who is the girl behind you..."
General Morgan looked at Fei doubtfully, while Fang Zheng chuckled.
"She is my assistant. Even though she looks like this, she is quite an aggressive kitten."
"Really……………"
General Morgan looked at Fei carefully and then nodded.
"But fortunately, this possibility has been eliminated at present. Because an organization has issued a criminal statement to the Wangjia Airship Commune and demanded ransom for the passengers."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"They are not asking for the redemption of the core components of the optical krypton machine, but the passengers?"
"Yeah... This is somewhat of a relief for us."
General Morgan nodded. After all, if the other party was just a simple sky pirate, then the matter would be much simpler. Compared with other countries' deliberate attempts to seize the core components of the optical krypton machine, a stupid criminal organization hijacked the plane and demanded a ransom.
On the contrary, it is easier to deal with.
"What about the military's attitude?"
"We still need to consider how to respond. Although the other party asked for ransom, it may be a cover-up... In short, everything is still under investigation, but we still have to put human life as the top priority."
"I see."
After hearing the general's answer, Fang Zheng nodded.
"Then we look forward to the military's efforts... Fei, let's go."
"OK."
Then Fang Zheng took Fei out of the office, and in the corridor, Fei looked at Fang Zheng doubtfully.
"Are we just going to stop like this?"
"Of course not, we must find those idiots as soon as possible."
Fang Zheng shook his head.
"Let's not talk about whether this group of sky pirates really exists. If they are idiots and come to ask for ransom in such a big way, they might be seen as an opportunity by other countries. If they send a team of people out to kill that group
If the sky pirates steal the core components, there is really no other way to think about it. Although I don’t know if those guys have the courage, but at least our own things cannot fall into the hands of others. In short, we
We still have to continue taking action.”
