Chapter 90

Chapter 90

Sheng Tiancheng is indeed still alive.

The so-called sacrifice was just an illusion. The reason why the conservatives arranged this was to make everyone think that Sheng Tiancheng and the mecha crashed into the insect wave together.

Only in this way can Sheng Tiancheng escape everyone's sight.

"While investigating Staff Officer Shi, agents from the Security Department searched his computer and found a set of encrypted communication records."

"This kind of communication requires scanning iris data, and only the person can log in and send and receive messages."

Zhuang Yu said: "It can be confirmed that the other party is Sheng Tiancheng."

Zhan Chen nodded.

In fact, many people have already raised questions about Sheng Tiancheng's life and death.

Sui Qi questioned Sheng Yi on the training ground, and Yu Tang also pointed out loopholes in the program logic. Even the Sheng family's house was still in Sheng Tiancheng's name because of the secret protection of the conservatives.

After talking to Yu Tang, Zhuang Yu once took time to go to the archives of the military department and look through it.

Shortly before Sheng Tiancheng disappeared, the military ministry passed a regulation.It is stipulated that the families of missing persons shall enjoy the same treatment as sacrifices, but the missing person will not be judged as a formal sacrifice until five years have passed, and the property in his name will not be allowed to be transferred.

So until now, all the assets of the Sheng family are still in Sheng Tiancheng's name - even including Sheng Yi's special assault mecha.

This information was all too obvious, but Sheng Yi had always closed his eyes and turned a blind eye.

The implanted program will not allow Shi Ji to raise these questions. As long as Shi Ji does not refute, Sheng Yi will always regard Shi Ji as the culprit who killed his father.

Zhan Chen asked: "Have you found out the reason why Sheng Tiancheng faked his death and disappeared?"

"We are still investigating," Zhuang Yu said. "The conservatives urgently destroyed a large number of paper files. These files have no electronic backup and cannot be restored."

Zhuang Yu: "I'm calling you because the Security Department has just confirmed the location where Sheng Tiancheng was when he sent the last message."

Zhuang Yu: "He came to the Military Academy."

Zhan Chen held the phone and looked down at his watch.

It was already late at night, and all the trainees had just finished the exercise and returned to the military academy to take a break. Everyone was so tired that they fell asleep.

"We are worried that he will attack Shi Ji again," Zhuang Yu said.

After learning about the crazy "list" from Zhan Chen, Zhuang Yu became even more worried about it.

He believed in the strength of Zhan Chen and Yu Tang, but when it came to S7, Zhuang Yu still couldn't feel completely reassured: "I'll come and take Shi Ji away tomorrow. Please protect him tonight -"

"No problem." Zhan Chen said, "Don't worry."

Zhuang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

The security department was racing against time to track down him all night long, and there were many noisy people around him.

Zhuang Yu explained what he was most concerned about, and spoke a few words to the people around him. Just as he was about to hang up, he was stopped by Zhan Chen: "Captain Zhuang."

Zhuang Yu stopped: "What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking about one thing." Zhan Chen said, "Are you sure that Sheng Tiancheng came to the military academy with Shi Ji as his target?"

Zhuang Yu was stunned for a moment.

After discovering that Sheng Tiancheng's target was the Military Academy, they never considered other possibilities - after all, whether it was the list mentioned by Zhan Chen or the thorn in the side of the remnants of the conservative forces, the target was the one who shone in the exercise.Young observer hand.

If something happened to Shi Ji, it would undoubtedly be an unimaginable and serious loss to the reformists.

"Is Mr. Yu awake?" Zhuang Yu said, "Pu Ying wants to ask his opinion——"

Zhan Chen: “Not yet.”

Zhan Chen sat on the bedside, stroked Yu Tang's still cold forehead, and covered him with the quilt: "But I warned Sheng Tiancheng before."

Zhuang Yu was stunned: "What?"

"I once warned him," Zhan Chen said, "when he tried to make Shi Ji 'crash' in the insect wave and silently turn Shi Ji into an AI."

For conservatives, letting Shi Ji die in that battle was the safest way.

Just like the content of the original work that Yu Tang received, Shi Ji came back alive from the insect wave. After going through a series of plots, he merged with AI in front of everyone, which would only cause a fierce backlash from public opinion.

Sheng Tiancheng will be ruined, Sheng Yi will be ruined by the truth, and the only observer who can surpass the post-fusion AI is Ye Hanfeng... Conservatives can hardly get any benefits from this.

If he just wanted to find a reason to escape, Sheng Tiancheng could just rush into the insect swarm himself.

In the abandoned factory, Sui Qi once questioned Sheng Yi.

For a wingman, the danger deep within the insect swarm can be fatal.Why did Sheng Tiancheng know this, but still force Shi Ji to join him as an observer into the insect tide?

"Because...their original plan was not just to create opportunities for Sheng Tiancheng to escape."

Zhuang Yu's voice was hoarse: "They want Shi Ji to die in the insect tide."

Zhan Chen: "Yes."

Zhuang Yu didn't speak immediately.

The strong fear made his heart palpitate. Zhuang Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath and exhale slowly.

Zhuang Yu: "The main armor and the observer were killed at the same time, which is very reasonable."

Zhuang Yu whispered: "In this way, they can naturally vigorously develop mechas, and then when necessary, come up with a set of AI programs exclusive to wingmen to gradually eliminate human observers..."

Zhuang Yu: "Did you stop him because of this?"

"No." Zhan Chen said.

Zhuang Yu was slightly startled.

Zhan Chen: "I couldn't think about it so much at that time."

He only knew that Sheng Tiancheng wanted Shi Ji to die in that insect wave, and then let Shi Ji's consciousness and AI be completely integrated.

Shi Ji's consciousness had already been taken over by employees sent by Chuan Bookstore.

Employees who suffer physical injuries in the lower world can be repaired by adjusting their data. Once they are mentally traumatized, these injuries will be synchronized to the employee's own sea of consciousness.

This is not just a conspiracy against Shi Ji.

Zhuang Yu suddenly woke up and broke into a cold sweat: "Mr. Yu——"

Zhan Chen: "I once warned Sheng Tiancheng."

He didn't have enough authority at that time to change more plots, and he only had time to force Sheng Tiancheng to give Shi Ji the order to return home.

After that, Zhan Chen realized the urgency of time.

"As long as Sheng Tiancheng still remembers me, he won't dare to touch Shi Ji."

Zhan Chen: "He will not forget me."

Zhuang Yu felt cold behind him: "What did you do to Sheng Tiancheng then?"

Zhan Chen stood up: "Nothing, just a gentle warning."

He walked to the window and opened the curtains, and the pale moonlight jumped in through the gap.

"Check again and try other directions."

Zhan Chen said: "For the sake of investigation, as long as he doesn't come to see Shi Ji, I will try not to come forward."

Zhan Chen: "If he sees me again, he might go crazy with fear."

This is not wrong.

For the next two days, the military academy remained calm.The Ministry of Security deployed many plainclothes agents, but still could not find any trace of Sheng Tiancheng.

Not only Shi Ji, but also Ye Hanfeng and several outstanding trainees who were under special protection also spent the two days of rest safely without any disturbance.

The Sheng residence that was the focus of attention was always empty. After Sheng Yi came back from the exercise, he kept training frantically on the training ground, as if he was in a life-threatening manner.

Despite all the worries, the special team's devilish training was not affected and started as scheduled.

…

These trainees only rested for two days. Before the fatigue on their bodies completely faded away, they were pulled out of the dormitory and thrown into a dedicated training camp.

There are no names, only numbers. As students, they will receive inhuman and cruel special training here.

Zhuang Yu was extremely busy these days. He just came back from the military headquarters. He waved his hand casually without taking a closer look and walked away from the training camp students who had just run fifty kilometers carrying logs.

Dean Nie entered the office with him, walked to the window, and casually glanced at the queue downstairs.

Seeing Sheng Yi's figure appearing in the crowd, Dean Nie couldn't help but frown: "Why is he here?"

"When the insect wave was controlled and went crazy, a small group also attacked the military students who had been moved to the safe area."

Behind Zhuang Yu, the deputy explained: "Although student Sheng Yi was not on the main battlefield, he also resisted, which meets the selection requirements this time."

The deputy said: "Classmate Sheng Yi also submitted a written reflection and admitted his previous mistakes..."

Dean Nie had a cold expression, frowned, and sat back at his desk without saying a word.

The deputy swallowed dryly and closed his mouth.

Zhuang Yu didn't shy away from it: "Those conservatives deliberately lured a few mechanical bugs to the safe area... They were trying to gain credit for Sheng Yi."

Sheng Yi's mecha fighting was originally his strength, and it was not a problem to deal with a few mechanical bugs that were intentionally weakened.

The conservatives were determined to promote Sheng Yi as the strongest mecha operator. Seeing Sheng Yi failing to recover from the successive blows, they would certainly not be willing to stand by and watch at such a time.

Dean Nie asked in a deep voice: "Since you know this, why would you let him do it?"

Dean Nie was so upset when he thought of what Sheng Yi did to Shi Ji that he didn't even want to see him.

"You were so cruel and ruthless at such a young age that you ordered others to almost cripple your observation hand, and almost ruined Shi Ji's life. Now it's enough to just say that you're wrong?!"

Dean Nie's tone was cold: "He is the protagonist? We all have to revolve around him? Why does he have such good luck!"

The deputy was frightened when he heard this, and carefully looked out the window at the practitioners who were knocked to the ground again and again by high-pressure water cannons, struggling in the mud and crawling over the barbed wire fence.

In the next few hours, these students will be required to fight in the mud and water until no one can stand up.

The dinner point was five kilometers away, and the half who arrived later had no food. The half who arrived first meant that they were lazy and slippery during combat training and would also be punished.

The deputy came in because of his family connections. He wanted to leave after two years of military service. I have no idea what kind of good luck this is.

Zhuang Yu got a glass of water from Dean Nie, took out a document from the filing cabinet, and nodded to the deputy.

The deputy quickly left the office as if he had received an amnesty.

Zhuang Yu closed the door: "I sent Sheng Yi back. Someone asked me to take him in."

Dean Nie frowned: "Who?"

"Chief Pu of the Security Department." Zhuang Yu said, "Sheng Yi is the bait."

Dean Nie was stunned for a moment and took the document handed over by Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu: "These are all the results of the Ministry of Security's investigation against Sheng Tiancheng."

They originally thought that Sheng Tiancheng's target was Shi Ji, but Sheng Tiancheng never appeared within two kilometers of Shi Ji. They watched Ye Hanfeng for two days and found no one who wanted to harm Ye Hanfeng.

After checking everyone, only one most unlikely candidate remained.

"Did Sheng Tiancheng come back to find Sheng Yi?"

Dean Nie also roughly knew the inside story. He couldn't figure out this assumption and shook his head: "How is it possible? Sheng Tiancheng will let his son know that he is still alive - not only alive, but also not a hero at all, but a traitor who escaped from the battlefield?"

Zhuang Yu couldn't understand it, but he still cooperated with the Ministry of Security's request: "You have to give it a try."

He was about to speak again when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Zhuang Yu's eyes brightened slightly, he stopped talking, and quickly walked over to open the door.

"Have you made an appointment with someone else?" Dean Nie stood up, "You are busy, I will avoid it."

Zhuang Yu stopped him: "You may need to meet this person."

Dean Nie was a little confused: "It's mysterious, what's the trick?"

"There was something wrong with the previous heir of the Sui family. The current heir is in our special force, and his name is Sui Qi."

Zhuang Yu said: "His family was worried and sent a professional manager over to provide appropriate protection to Sui Qi."

Dean Nie has always disliked this kind of family involvement in the army. He also knew that Sui Qi almost lost her life in the exercise, so he didn't want to say more and waved his hand: "You are not my student, so whatever..."

Zhuang Yu opened the door and let the newly arrived people into the office.

Dean Nie glanced casually, his breathing suddenly stopped, and he stood up suddenly, staring closely at the visitor.

...Time seems to go back twenty years ago in an instant.

Because his son insisted on transferring to the mecha department and working as a mecha operator for Zhuang Yu, Dean Nie got furious and smashed up the office. He gritted his teeth and handed over all his belongings, and customized the strongest and most beating-resistant mecha for his son..

Zhuang Yu came to plead for his new operator, but the two young men were kicked out by Dean Nie. They were not allowed to come back unless they became the first observer and first operator in the alliance.

This anger has been blocked for twenty years.

In the past ten years, Nie Chi was angry with his father and always wanted to defeat Director Sui openly before going back to see Dean Nie.

Ten years later, Nie Chi fell into an electronic storm due to an accident.

The deputy team member of this special operations team and the deputy leader of the sharp knife team has been using his own particles to call for help for his teammates.

Yu Tang found many people along the particles, threw them in a full circle, and then found a vague shadow about to dissipate at the edge of the storm.

Nie Chi could have gone out on his own.

He voluntarily gave up the opportunity to leave the electronic storm and stayed inside to search for his lost comrades.He had no ability to take away others, so he could only try his best to wake up each of his dissipating companions and prevent them from falling asleep.

He used his own particles to create road signs and distress signals.

When Yu Tang pulled him out, he had lost all memory and was unconscious on the edge of the electronic storm.

He is missing too many particles. Apart from a name, he has forgotten who he is and what he wants to do.

…

He asked that group of light for help and introduced him into Chuan Bookstore.

He joined the Almighty Butler Department and became a professional manager hired by the Sui family. He recognized the light, so he voluntarily gave up the task of that book.

The penalty for failing a mission is overtime.

Nie Chi took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and hugged Zhuang Yu hard.

"Captain, do you want someone to pilot the mecha?"

Nie Chi: "Work overtime for free, no money required."
