It is still unknown when Nan Heyu's retirement life will start.

It has been a long time since the Lanjun Empire has been so lively, and after the canonization ceremony, the atmosphere still hasn't disappeared.

But as time went by, most people finally calmed down gradually.They are no longer as excited as before.Instead, he couldn't help feeling a little worried about Jian Chensu, a young man born out of nowhere.

In the eyes of ordinary people, he suddenly changed from a commoner who was born in an orphanage to a prince who was more than [-] people in the empire.Jian Chensu may experience a short period of confusion.Even being overwhelmed by the prosperity that hit him in a short period of time, he forgot his previous pursuit.

This is not an inexplicable worry, but a reasonable guess.

But as the protagonist, Jian Chensu is certainly not a person who will get lost easily.

As a down-to-earth practical person, anyone who has contact with Jian Chensu in work can find that His Royal Highness's strength is far beyond his imagination.

The nobles of the Lanjun Empire have received top-level elite education since childhood.While other children are learning basic subjects, they have already begun to learn how to manage this huge empire.

But Jian Chensu was different. He lived in the Imperial Welfare Institute since he was a child, and received the most common education in the Empire.

Although the living conditions of the second-class planets are very good.But in the eyes of most people, it was already incredible that he could get into the Imperial Military Academy from there, let alone know how to manage the empire.

Jian Chensu did it.

After a period of contact, the imperial officials who didn't take Jian Chensu seriously before have obviously corrected their work attitudes.Even with it, even Yi and the military department, which usually doesn't have much contact with the royal family, are busier than usual.

In this regard, Admiral Nan Heyu expressed his great satisfaction.

Another regular meeting of the military department, a man in black sat in the center. He leaned quietly on the back of his chair and listened carefully to the report of the person in front of him.

"This is the order status of the new mechas of the military department this month, and where the old ones will go after they are retired..." The staff of the military department pointed out the data on the light screen as they spoke.

"Has the data of Parking Star been integrated?" Suddenly, Nan Heyu, who was sitting at the front, sat up straight and asked the speaker.

Hearing the general's question, the man paused for a few seconds, a nervous expression gradually appeared on his face.

"Uh... this... that..." If you keep stammering in class, you may be let off by the teacher.But it is a pity that this is not a school, but the military headquarters of the empire.

Not only did Nan Heyu not just let him go, but on the contrary, he gently held his chin, looked at the man with a smile, and waited for his answer.

To be able to sit at this table, everyone is not stupid.

Seeing that this person kept hemming and hawing and not speaking, they immediately understood that Nan Heyu's request probably touched the other party's pain point.

The huge imperial military headquarters is a place with "a lot of oil and water".

Before saving many people, they said they wanted to order new mechas, but in fact they were still using the old ones.They reported it like this just to transfer money from the military to their own pockets.

The empire has developed for so many years, and many abandoned planets have been produced.These resource-depleted and heavily polluted planets are often used as "mech cemeteries".

Nan Heyu asked him if he had any data on where the mechas were parked.I just want to know whether those old mechas have been retired like this person said, or are they still working.

Seeing that the man remained silent, Tan Chenyue, who was sitting next to Nan Heyu, spoke.

"Which planet was it sent to? What are the coordinates of the parking location?" he asked.

Seeing that Tan Chenyue also asked, the man finally couldn't help but lowered his head. After a long silence, he finally said in a very low voice: "The data may not be connected yet..."

Hearing this, Admiral Nan Heyu sat up straight, then smiled at the man, "Okay, I know everything, you should sit down first."

Nam and Yu didn't say what he knew, which was scarier than him criticizing that person directly at the meeting.

Although this incident has nothing to do with most people, they still became tense together after feeling the sudden tense atmosphere in the venue.

In the past regular military meetings, such a thing would not happen.

The usual meeting is just a group of people reading unimportant manuscripts like a machine, and then it ends hastily.

But recently, the two generals Nan Heyu and Tan Chenyue paid more and more attention to this regular military meeting.

Not only did they take the lead, they announced the more important information of the two legions to everyone at the meeting, and even asked everyone to make a detailed report.

For a while, the atmosphere in the military headquarters became tense.

Nan and Yu stopped talking, and he seemed to let that person go.But everyone present knew that this matter would not end there.

Sure enough, just as the meeting was coming to an end, Nan Heyu directly called out the names of several people, asking them to collect information on all the retired mechas parked on the desolate star within the specified time.

The admiral not only wanted to find out the whereabouts of the recent batch of mechs and funds, but he even wanted to put together the previous accounts and do a careful calculation.

Admiral Nan Heyu stood up from his seat with a smile on his face, and then said very easily, "The meeting is over."

Immediately afterwards, the person who reported the incident just now closed his eyes with a livid face.

Maybe hundreds of millions of ordinary people in the empire haven't felt it yet, but these people who are in the midst of change already have a strong premonition that the Lanjun Empire is undergoing a huge change that hasn't been seen for a long time.

……

In the half a year after the canonization ceremony, the internal changes of the empire continued, and the rare calm was maintained on the surface.

But on this day, the calm was finally broken.

The capital star in the middle of the night is unbelievably quiet, and the opaque glass blocks all the starlight from the window.The man in the black silk nightgown was clearly asleep, but his brows furrowed involuntarily.

Nan Heyu had a rare nightmare.In the dream, he returned to the age of the earth, and saw his former self...

Just when he was in a nightmare, the optical brain screen on his wrist suddenly lit up.

A few seconds later, Nan Heyu felt a tingling pain in his wrist, and finally woke up from his sleep.

——Admiral Nan Heyu's optical brain received an emergency report and turned on the forced reading mode to wake up its owner from sleep.

"Hiss..." Nan Heyu gasped involuntarily, and slowly opened his eyes.

In order to protect the eyes, after detecting that the owner of the room is awake, the lights in the house are not turned on immediately, but the light transmittance of the windows is slowly changed first.Wait until the eyes of the person on the bed can adapt to the lighting conditions before turning on the light.

Being woken up in this way for the first time, Nan Heyu was still a little dazed—especially because of the nightmare just now, he didn't realize where he was right now.

Nan Heyu stretched out his hand subconsciously, he touched the wrist of his wearer Guangnao, and then he finally woke up.

What happened?

After waking up, Nan Heyu raised his arms and clicked on the reminder.The light brain is still continuously emitting dark red light, judging by the color, this matter is definitely not simple.

Nan and Yugang clicked on the information, and two big red characters jumped in front of his eyes.

"prison Break"

prison Break?

Seeing these two words, Nan Heyu immediately thought of those who were imprisoned in the imperial prison and attacked the queen.And the two soldiers who were imprisoned in the Chiluan Army Headquarters and responsible for transporting the optical brain.

No matter who escaped from prison, the efforts he had made to deal with Pei Jingtong in the recent period would instantly return to zero.

After seeing those two words, Nan Heyu's temples couldn't help jumping up, and he immediately became very nervous.

But after opening the message, Nan Heyu finally saw that the person who escaped this time was not what he thought...but he was an old acquaintance.

Gu Mingzhi—the little star thief I met when I first transmigrated into this book.

He actually slipped away from the interstellar smart prison?

Because things happened so suddenly, no one has had time to summarize the antecedents and consequences.

The news Nan Heyu received was automatically sent by the prison's intelligent system, so there was only one location, with the name "Gu Mingzhi".

After seeing it, Nan Heyu immediately got up from the bed and changed into the military uniform as quickly as possible.Because of the rush to set off, the admiral even forgot to tie his tie.

Nan Heyu arrived at the gate of the prison in the shortest possible time. This prison is not in the same hemisphere as the palace, so it is daytime.

Before the mecha landed, Nan Heyu saw several acquaintances from a distance.

Tan Chenyue and several other generals in the military department have already arrived here.

Nan Heyu stopped the mecha and walked quickly towards the crowd.After seeing him, Tan Chenyue took two steps slightly to the side, making room for Nan Heyu.

"General Tan Chenyue." Nanhe Yuchao Tan Chenyue nodded.

"Well, you're here." Tan Chenyue glanced at Nan Heyu, and then said to him, "The person who escaped from prison is Gu Mingzhi, that is... the star thief we sent to Capital Star together before."

For the time being, Tan Chenyue still doesn't know about Nan Heyu's wonderful past, and his relationship with this little star thief who escaped.So when Nan Heyu came over, he was worried that the other party had forgotten who Gu Ming knew was Tan Chenyue, so he introduced him first.

Hearing Tan Chenyue's words, Nan Heyu turned his gaze to the other side with a guilty conscience, then nodded and said, "Well, I still remember him...by the way, did a star thief come to snatch him?"

Nan Heyu vaguely remembered that on the way to escort Gu Mingzhi back to Capital Star, Yu Ange once wanted to intercept the imperial team and rescue Gu Mingzhi.

"No." Tan Chenyue's expression became more serious.

After saying this, Tan Chenyue took two steps forward, and then stopped beside the identity verification system in front of her.Another mech flew over not far away, and Nan Heyu saw that most of the people from the military headquarters had already appeared here.

After the person who arrived just now walked out of the mecha and trotted here, Tan Chenyue continued, "This is the first jailbreak incident of the Lanjun Empire in the past hundred years."

Hearing what he said, everyone's expressions became serious.

Tan Chenyue paused again, and he stretched out his hand to shake the sensing area of ​​the identity verification system in front of him.

At this time, Nan Heyu finally saw the problem.

It stands to reason that as long as someone stands here, the sensing area will start to work automatically.It will collect the identity information of the person in front, compare it with the data on the optical brain, and then make a judgment on whether to open the door or call the police directly.

But now, no matter how Tan Chenyue's hand moves in the sensing area, the instrument remains motionless, as if there is no electricity.

"Is the induction device broken?" Nan Heyu frowned and told everyone's guess.

"No." After saying this, Tan Chenyue turned around again and started typing in the button bar of the identity verification system.

Not long after, the familiar light screen appeared in front of everyone, and at the same time, the familiar mechanical female voice sounded again:

"Authentication system, starting up."

When everyone remained silent, Tan Chenyue finally said the answer: "Gu Mingzhi broke through our prison system and closed it."

"..."

After listening to Tan Chenyue's words, the scene was silent for a while, and everyone felt a strong sense of crisis in their hearts.

People living in the interstellar era rely heavily on two things, "machines" and "systems".

Perhaps Nan Heyu didn't feel very deeply, but for those native interstellar residents, "the system has been breached" is indeed an extremely dangerous signal-it means that the greatest guarantee of their safety has disappeared.

The prison system is very complicated. After the "starting up" prompt came down, the light screen used to verify the identity still did not come down.

The start-up process is not over yet, logically speaking, the prison should be inaccessible at this time.But just as Tan Chenyue paused, the silver-white door in front of her was pushed open from the inside.

The scene was too quiet. Seeing the door open, Nan Heyu subconsciously took half a step back, and then he realized that the person who walked out of the prison was none other than Tan Chenyue's subordinate.

Obviously, the prison department has not resumed normal operation now.

"Report to the general, the internal inspection of the prison has ended." He saluted Tan Chenyue and continued: "We took a look, and the only faults are currently in Gu Mingzhi's prison, as well as the inspection of the passageway he escaped through. device, there is no problem with the rest of the prisoners for the time being."

After hearing what this person said, everyone finally let go of their hearts.

Those who can be locked up on the capital star are not ordinary prisoners.

In particular, the prisoners held in this prison were all put on the wanted list by the empire early on.It is already very dangerous to run away Gu Mingknowingly.If he lets go of a few more, the capital star and nearby star fields will not be peaceful in the near future.

"Excuse me, Lord General, is there any clue to show how he broke through the system?" Nan Heyu heard, and someone behind him finally asked his doubts.

Tan Chenyue shook her head and said: "How to do it, we still need the assistance of the Academy of Sciences to investigate. The only thing that can be confirmed now is that he probably broke into the monitoring device in the cell first, and then broke into the entire system from here."

It is different from the special cell where the original owner, the second world, was imprisoned.The cells in ordinary prisons have simple furniture such as beds, and by the way, there is a device used to monitor the signs of prisoners' activities.

It never occurred to him that Gu Mingzhi used that thing to escape.

It took another two hours after Gu Mingzhi escaped from the prison before the system delayed sending out the notification.The speed of transportation in the interstellar era is extremely fast. If you choose a good path, it is not impossible to leave the rule of the empire.

Just as everyone was silent, another mecha slowly landed here.A boy in black came out of the mecha.

It's Jian Chensu.

As the prince, he can naturally receive the news.But now everyone knows that Jian Chensu is a very busy person, he has too much work scheduled in advance every day, let alone take care of a star thief's escape from prison temporarily.

"His Royal Highness." After seeing Jian Chensu, all the people present saluted him in unison. Jian Chensu nodded to everyone, and then walked over quickly.

"Is there something wrong with the system?" Jian Chensu asked Nan Heyu when he came up, he ignored Tan Chenyue and the rest, and a special barrier immediately formed between them.

"Yes." Nan Heyu nodded and said, "Gu Mingzhi broke through the internal system of the prison. The only luck is that he was the only one who escaped."

Facing Nan Heyu, Jian Chensu didn't have the airs of a prince, and the relationship between the two was very equal, just like partners.

At this moment, the identity detection device, which had been prepared for half a day after being turned on, finally beeped a few times and then started to work normally.Jian Chensu turned around and glanced at the identity verification device, then walked slowly under the red light.

"Capital star, prince, Jian Chensu." The mechanical female voice sounded again.

The system reported Jian Chensu's name, and it seemed that it was indeed working normally.

After finishing these, Jian Chensu walked back again.He glanced at the group of soldiers indifferently, and then said to them: "As far as I know, this system has undergone a major maintenance and upgrade just over two months ago."

Jian Chensu's memory is very good, and the upgrade of the identity verification system is really not a big deal for him as the prince of the empire.Before speaking, no one thought that Jian Chensu actually remembered the time when the system was last upgraded.

Hearing Jian Chensu's words, the soldier standing in front of him froze for a moment, then nodded quickly.

"Then it means that the system we are using now is already the best."

System upgrade is not a simple matter.Generally speaking, every five or six years, the Academy of Sciences may accumulate the technology to support an upgrade.

No one refuted Jian Chensu's words.

During the silence, a starship also fell to the ground, and a group of people in white coats walked down quickly.This group of people are scientists from the Imperial Academy of Sciences. After learning that Gu Mingzhi fled by breaking through the system, they rushed to the scene immediately.

Even though he was not very familiar with the people from the Academy of Sciences, Nan Heyu recognized it at a glance - the man walking in the front was the chief researcher of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, a top star network architect.

Seeing Jian Chensu, everyone showed a guilty expression.

"Don't be nervous." Nan Heyu saw that Jian Chensu smiled at the group of people and asked, "How long will it take to fix the loopholes in the system?"

"Uh... About a month?" The man standing at the front hesitated for a moment, and he replied to Jian Chensu like this.

Jian Chensu nodded, and said "Okay." But before several researchers breathed a sigh of relief, Jian Chensu continued to ask: "After the restoration is completed, with Gu Mingzhi's level, can he still recover?" Break the system?"

Although he was very reluctant to admit that he was inferior to others, but the fact that Gu Mingzhi had successfully escaped from prison was in front of everyone's eyes, and the chief researcher couldn't help but fell silent.

"In this case, I have an idea." His Royal Highness took two steps forward and said, "I have a candidate who may be able to complete a system update in a short time. I will introduce him to you. If you If you are not at ease, you can also repair the bug at the same time. Do you think it is possible?"

As soon as Jian Chensu's words were spoken, Nan Heyu immediately understood what he meant.

Since returning to the royal family, Jian Chensu started to remove Pei Jingtong's influence from the empire, and by the way, placed his own people in various departments.

The Imperial Academy of Sciences is one of the more difficult places to deal with. The way to rise here is relatively simple, and it is difficult to arrange one's own people in a short period of time.

Nan Heyu remembers that Jian Chensu's friend in the Imperial Military Academy in the original book was a genius in star network architecture and systems.

In "Rebirth of the Star Empire", it simply said that Jian Chensu arranged him into the Academy of Sciences through a certain incident, and then the other party became a core figure in the Academy of Sciences by virtue of his extraordinary professionalism.

From this point of view, the event mentioned in the original book should be this.

No one can refute Jian Chensu's suggestion. After all, this task is really difficult. If it can be done well, it does mean that the other party has the ability to enter the Imperial Academy of Sciences.

"Of course, Your Royal Highness." The chief researcher hastily stepped forward and bowed to Jian Chensu. Their system had just been hacked by the star thief. As the main person in charge, he naturally did not dare to refuse the prince's request.

Because the jailbreak notification sent by the prison system was too late, people didn't know where Gu Mingzhi was now, so they didn't turn on the search mode.

After Jian Chensu finished speaking, the scene fell silent.Just as Tan Chenyue was about to step forward to ask Jian Chensu what other arrangements he had, the optical brains at everyone's hands lit up at the same time.

What happened again?

Nan Heyu subconsciously glanced at Jian Chensu who was standing beside him. After a short exchange of eyes, they turned on the optical brain immediately like everyone else.

This is a piece of identity positioning information...

The place where the message was sent was outside the Lanjun Empire, and the sender was... Gu Mingzhi.

"Is it Gu Mingzhi?"

"It's too crazy! Is this showing off to us?"

"...it appears that he has escaped from the Empire."

It seems that everyone received the same message - Gu Mingzhi, who successfully escaped, sent his current coordinates to every important member of the military department through a special channel.

At this time, the chief of the Academy of Sciences, who has been silent all this time, finally said: "That little star thief should have broken through the communication system in the area we are in now. Uh...he can't see things that are too confidential, but he can force us to People in the area send messages."

"It seems that there is no need to bother to hunt it down." Jian Chensu glanced at Guangnao, then shrugged and said.

In fact, because the news was delayed by two hours, it was meaningless to go after Gu Mingzhi now.

Not to mention that the other party has the ability to break through the prison system without an optical brain. Now that Gu Mingzhi escaped from birth, he can just find a better optical brain and pretend to be an identity for himself. things.

Hearing Jian Chensu's words, everyone felt a little depressed.And just when Nan Heyu was about to turn off the optical brain, the coordinates just now disappeared suddenly.

"This..." Nan Heyu subconsciously opened his mouth, but before he finished speaking, reason told Nan Heyu to shut up.

Nan Heyu calmed down slowly, pretending to be still studying the coordinates, looking at his optical brain.

After a few seconds of blankness, the coordinates sent by Gu Mingzhi disappeared, and a few handwritten words appeared in front of Nan Heyu.

——This is Yu Ange's word.

The two grew up together on Exvinco, and Nan and Yu are very familiar with his handwriting.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone had received the news, Yu Ange sent a very important piece of information to Nan Heyu.

"Pei Jingtong started contacting Star Pirates, be careful."

Nan Heyu slowly raised his head. He saw that the rest of the people were still looking at the light screen to discuss this matter. Tan Chenyue was also turning around and talking to the staff in charge of the prison, arranging to temporarily move other prisoners to the prison. to somewhere else.

After finding that no one was paying attention to him, Nan Heyu refocused on the light brain on his wrist.

"?"

He sent Yu Ange a small question mark, and after more than ten seconds, the other party replied: "I don't have a clue about who it is."

After Nan and Yugang finished reading this sentence, his screen went blank again.

Also at this time, the rest of the people also made disappointing voices one after another.It seems that Gu Mingzhi stopped the transmission of news.

But Yu Ange's words had already given Nan Heyu a big reminder.

In the original book, since Pei Jingtong in the first life was able to collude with the star thief to kill Jian Chensu, then of course, in this life, he may repeat the old drama again.After seeing Yu Ange's words, Nan Heyu immediately became uneasy.

Even though he knew that Jian Chensu was very powerful.But the ending of the first life in the original book is constantly reminding him that he must not take it lightly.

As a star thief, Yu Ange naturally had more "devious ways" than a serious soldier like Nan Heyu.He knew that it was not a strange thing for Pei Jingtong to contact his colleagues.

Nan Heyu slowly put his hand down, walked to the edge of the prison, and looked at the identity detection device that Gu Mingzhi had destroyed before.

"What's wrong?" Jian Chensu saw that Nan Heyu's mood was a little abnormal, the prince who was talking to someone else directly put down the chat partner, walked to Nan Heyu's side and asked with concern.

...Obviously, Nan Heyu couldn't directly say to Jian Chensu, "You may be killed by Pei Jingtong and the star robbers in this life, and I'm worried now."

After hearing Jian Chensu's question, Nan Heyu was silent for a while, and then said to him very seriously: "I just think that this incident shows that the security of our system has yet to be considered. Therefore, His Royal Highness, the normal activities, must be Bring enough security personnel."

Hearing Nan Heyu's words, Jian Chensu smiled, then took a few steps forward and whispered in his ear: "Okay, thank you, Admiral Heyu, for your concern."
