Most Wanted [Interstellar]

Chapter 38

When the burning Famagusta passed over Titan's moon, the huge shock wave even shattered the ice layer on Titan's moon, and the tides generated by changes in gravity spewed out of the cracks. When they fell, A blizzard fell on this planet.

When all the nuclear bombs were detonated, the orbit of Famagusta was just shifted to a safe value.However, the matter was not resolved satisfactorily - Famagusta, which did not hit Taiwei, crashed into a habitable planet 16 billion kilometers away from the capital after bypassing Taiwei.

This impact turned the planet with a diameter of [-] kilometers into ruins. Famagusta finally stopped here. A huge debris field.

This is considered the most horrific terrorist attack in human history.For many days in a row, the media in various galaxies have been reporting this matter in a cycle, even the most remote corners of the universe have not been pulled down.The government's approval ratings plummeted again as a result.

Surprisingly, the president was not outraged by this, he just started to re-examine this person.He always called him "that researcher" before, but now he remembered his name—Erwin Herman.

"We have to get him," he told his staff. "I will not allow such absurdity to happen again during my tenure."

This was a wise decision. After making this decision, he signed the motion about amending the Constitution submitted by Justice Grotius before, and then boarded the fast spacecraft to Taiwei.

He didn't have time to wait for Planck to come back. No matter how dissatisfied he was with the other party now, he decided to temporarily put aside other gaps and catch the number one enemy first.

After three hours of secret talks, the president, Marshal Johannes, and Planck reached some agreements, the most important of which was: the service of the Owen system to all mankind would not be suspended because of this matter.

Under this premise, the federation and the military will do their utmost to cooperate with the government in implementing the orders issued by the president.

After the meeting, Planck said to Johannes: We didn't lose, we're all still there after all.

Johannes knew what he meant, and while their cooperation had always irritated him, he knew he was right and they hadn't lost.

But they didn't win either.

No one has won this battle.

Except for the dust that has been scattered in the universe.

Gus Schlieffen woke up in one of the "dusts". He felt as if he had just had a long dream. After waking up, he was sore all over.He tried to open his eyes, but the light blue light made him cry.

He moved his fingers and touched an operating lever, which he was familiar with. He followed the operating lever to the ceiling, where there seemed to be blood stains from when he hit it before.

"where am I?"

This is a space without gravity. He felt that the control belt was still tied to his body. When he turned on the button of the control belt, he floated up...

"where am I?"

He struggled to open his eyes, and saw that there was darkness outside his field of vision... This is the cockpit of the E25 general-purpose mech... Outside was... the endless space... He opened his mouth to speak, but found that his mouth was so dry that he couldn't utter it at all The sound... He looked around and found that the cockpit was in a mess. There were empty packages of military food that had been eaten and drinking water bottles that had been drunk in the air. The air cycle machine in the cockpit seemed to have been exhausted. The operation stopped, and the air was very turbid to breathe.

He instinctively raised his hand to check the time—his biochip flickered faintly.

It is now September 2017, 9 AD.

September 9th?

He remembers...he remembers...he searches his memory, but it all seems to be in vain, he just feels like his head is about to burst.He couldn't find any clues, he only felt thirsty and hungry, his body temperature plummeted, as if he had fallen into the deep sea, he was spinning, weightless, and lost direction in a blue bubble...

vomit!

None of this is real...he wants to wake up.

vomit!He retched again, and he realized that what he was in was not a dream.

"The energy consumption in the cabin has reached the limit, and the temperature will drop below zero within half an hour. The driver is asked to turn on the protection mode, and please authorize. If the driver does not respond, an automatic authorization will be generated." The automatic voice in the cockpit began to broadcast.

After the electronic female voice finished, the pilot suit on his body began to inflate, his clothes bulged, and the activated thermostat blocked his view.

"The driver's body temperature is starting to drop, please pay attention, please pay attention."

"The driver's blood pressure fluctuates, warning, warning, the driver is asked to take self-help measures."

"O... Owen..." Schlieffen opened his mouth with difficulty.

"I'm here, Lieutenant."

"..." He heard the response, but he didn't know what order to give.

"Warning! Warning! The energy of the mecha is exhausted, please take measures to save yourself."

"I..." He looked at the dark space, hoping to see the blue planet from the only corner of his vision.

Oswald... home... Oswald.

The sudden drop in temperature caused convulsions, and Schlieffen clearly felt that he was about to die. The lights in the cockpit began to gradually weaken, and only the radio station was still communicating in the darkness.

Amidst the electromagnetic noise, he heard a faint fluctuation, and then the fluctuation became more and more pronounced until the noise became a call.

"Lieutenant Gus Schlieffen, this is the Oswald Search and Rescue Team, we have detected you and we will be at your location in 10 minutes! Please keep in touch! We will be at your location in 10 minutes! You are rescued ! Please keep in touch."

In a blur, he heard his biochip say to him in its own calm and rational voice:

"You're saved, Schlieffen. Goodbye."

Goodbye.

There has been no good news in the three months since the first-level wanted criminal escaped from prison. Although everyone does not know the specific situation, everyone knows that many soldiers have died during this period.

A soldier was lucky. It is said that he disappeared on the day of the nuclear magnetic storm. It was not until three months later that the search and rescue team re-searched for his signal and rescued him before he died.This matter was on the local news once, and it became a talking point among the locals for a while.

The rescued person was Gus Schlieffen. His death certificate was recovered by the military department. He changed from a dead person to a living person and became a member of Oswald.On top of that, he was given a long vacation to lie in the hospital with no work until he fully recovered.

After the doctor allowed him to accept visits, the warden came to visit him. The cold-looking old colonel was moved by this miracle, and he even applied for a medal for him in recognition of his tenacious performance in combat.

"Very good, young man. Although you didn't do anything, it's a great credit for surviving," the warden raised his voice. "It's not easy to stay in space for three months. You are an example for everyone."

"Colonel," his secretary suddenly walked into the ward and pressed close to his ear, "someone is looking for you."

"Who?"

"Prosecutor's office."

Prosecutor's Office? ?

When the warden returned to the office, two men in uniform had been waiting there for a long time.

"Hello," they showed their credentials, "We need to take this person away, please cooperate."

The warden was very puzzled: "I don't understand what you mean, gentlemen, this prison guard just won the Medal of Honor of the police system before this, and I don't know why he is being taken away in such an impolite way now. "

The other party seemed to have expected his attitude, and one of them sat down: "After the nuclear magnetic storm, all suspicious personnel must be investigated. This is an order issued by the highest administrative region."

"What's suspicious about him?"

"This is the report you submitted. It clearly stated that the first search was seven hours after the nuclear magnetic storm. Why was there no signal detected in this area at that time?"

"Sir, this is the universe, not a swimming pool. Mechas don't stay in one place all the time." Like most soldiers, the warden has an aversion to the people in the prosecutor's office.

The other party was not going to entangle him on this point, so he changed the direction of the conversation: "The reserves in the mecha are only enough for one month, but this prison guard has lived in it for three months."

"We have investigated this matter. If it is just to survive, these materials may indeed be able to maintain his life for three months. This has been reported in previous actual combat."

"...It is impossible most of the time." The other party smiled, "Of course, it is also possible, but we need serious arguments. Lieutenant Gus Schlieffen was not the first person we took away for investigation. Among the three In the past month, we have taken away nearly [-] suspects, but I believe that Erwin Hellman could not have met all of these people. Most of them are innocent, and we will prove their innocence. This is Our work."

When the warden saw the investigation order signed by the prosecutor's office, he knew that he could not stop this matter alone: ​​"How long do you want to investigate him?"

"Long term, but I don't think it will be too long. After all, it is impossible for us not to catch Alvin Herman forever."

The warden shook his head: "I don't know why you are interested in these insignificant people. Gus Schlieffen is just an ordinary prison guard. He served as a soldier for two years after graduating from military school, and then he started working as a prison guard. There is no chance to contact people from the Academy Federation! When that Alvin Herman was arrested, he was not yet born! After being rescued, he did not have any abnormalities, and he could eat and sleep just like other alpha fools. I don’t Think he has any chance of getting in touch with the first federal terrorist. He was sent to the sky by a stupid order, nearly died, and finally survived until he was rescued and was taken away as a suspect. Gentlemen, I did not I can't stop you, but I would say it's really chilling what you're doing."

"..."

"At least let him pack his luggage and leave decently." The warden begged.

The two beta clerks were indifferent to this: "We have to follow the instructions, please cooperate."

After saying this, they dropped the colonel and went straight to the ward.

"Lieutenant Gus Schlieffen, you have been arrested. This is an arrest warrant. I hope you will not resist and come with us."

"Why?" Schlieffen, who was sitting on the hospital bed, was taken aback.

The clerk of the prosecutor's office took out the documents: "We suspect that you have had contact with Erwin Herman, please accept our investigation."

"Erwin? What?" Schlieffen looked at them in surprise, "What are you talking about?"

"Sir, please don't resist, please come with us."

The clerk of the Supervision Office took out the handcuffs and handcuffed him to himself.
