"What if the sinkhole is ignited from a distance, and we don't get close to it, do you think it's feasible?" When they finally returned to the cabin of the Wallis, Yegor sat by the medicine cabinet and rummaged through painkillers, and suddenly asked.

You Jing thought for a while and said, "No, it is difficult to control the open fire from a long distance. It is likely that the natural gas will not be ignited directly, but an explosion cloud will be formed instead. At that time, the planet will basically be finished."

Yegor nodded, and fell into silent thinking again.When he frowned and thought hard, the unpredictable coercion that was often seen on him seemed to recede quietly under the light like a thin layer of shadow, becoming calm and gentle, making people unconscious want to be near him.

You Jing was staring at him blankly, Yegor raised his head again, and called him softly, "You Jing, come here."

In the Consulate, Yegor, an old man, never refused to call him by his first name, but politely called him the Consul.If it weren't for two people who fell into this asteroid, You Jing might never hear those two pronunciations from his mouth in his entire life.

Without thinking, he walked up to Yegor, bent down and asked, "Want to help?"

Before he finished speaking, he felt something stung his eyes suddenly, and his whole body was filled with powerless numbness, and his head was dizzy as if fogged.

Yegor supported his back in time, supported You Jing's body and made him lean back on the chair slowly.He put down the anesthetic spray in his hand, stared at him silently for a while, then turned around and walked out with a limp.

There was a sound of falling to the ground, his footsteps stopped, he turned his head sideways, and a hand held his intact ankle.

You Jing hadn't fully come to his senses yet, he prostrated himself on the ground, moved forward tremblingly, but held Yegor tightly: "What are you doing...?"

"What are you doing?" The man sitting on the high seat squinted down, his eyes were as sharp as a poisoned dagger, as if he was always ready to tear open his stomach and pick out his frightened heart.

The person opposite him, although standing, cowered like a dead leaf in the wind, with large beads of sweat oozing from his fat face, he argued for himself: "The matter of Chiron Grass has been leaked! I thought it was just Some people have unclean hands and feet, stole the grass seeds to be sown, and deal with it. But I sent people to track it down and found this..."

He raised his thick and short fingers, holding a sapphire ring as thick as a starry sky between his fingers. Under the dim light, streamers of light streaked across the cut surface like arrows.

The fat man's eyes widened in horror: "The people in the Consulate know! If it's just the secretary-general, not only the secretary-general, but also the consul... The consul is from Youjia! If You Jing starts to investigate this matter , then everything is over!

"So you plan to silence it?" The man said calmly, his tone was like deep water, and no one could hear anything.

The fat man bite the bullet and said: "The person I appointed is very professional, and the spaceship will be completely destroyed. As long as the people on board are all dead, no one will dig out the accident of the Wallis and the secrets of the Chiron Grass." Come out!"

"Death? Do you know who is on board?" His tone was still so calm, as if he was asking a question sincerely.

"Yes, the Secretary-General is also on board! But I can't find a better opportunity. If you delay for a second, you will be in danger of leaking the news." The fat man broke down and shouted, his voice slowly lowered, with Pleading desperately, "My lord, you said you should guard against Yegor, and you know he is not that reliable, don't you? Even if you kill him, it won't do us much harm."

Helian Ding's falcon-like side face gradually emerged from the shadows, and he slowly walked in front of the fat man: "Mr. Vice President, I think there may be some misunderstandings here. Whether it is you who think you are indispensable, or In my opinion, the negligible profits brought about by the chiron grass trade are small pawns that can be thrown away at any time. But Yegor, no matter how eccentric, rebellious, and obedient he is, he is a member of the Helian family, is... ...my brother."

The murderer's light suddenly appeared in his eyes, the fat man raised his head in horror and froze there, the terrified expression on his face was frozen, after a while, he fell down slowly and heavily, his hands and feet twitched, and blood foamed from his mouth.

There was a gleaming dagger stuck in his neck.

Several attendants guarding the door came in lightly, and skillfully began to clean up the scene and deal with the corpse.Then Rasimov was dragged in.

The haggard governor immediately saw the corpse lying on the ground.The blood on his face faded away, and he murmured, "I'm next, isn't it?"

He Lianding smiled, and made a gesture to signal him to relax: "How come, Mr. Governor. From the beginning, you have cooperated with us very much. Although you are reluctant, you are much more honest than Mr. Vice President. Nothing else on my mind."

Rasimov whispered, "I just want to live in peace."

"I promise you will live a life like that." Helendin didn't need to signal, an attendant handed the processed murder weapon to the governor, and the cold murderous intent on the knife made Raximov tremble.

He knew what this meant, and taking the knife was equivalent to taking all the blame on himself.

"You killed the vice president because he has coerced you into making drugs for many years, and now he has murdered the consul. You can't bear it." Helian Ding's voice was not strong, but he could not be refuted, "The elder will understand your situation very well. , you are a cowardly, cowardly, poor man with a good conscience, and finally rose up to resist. When you surrender yourself, I will write a letter of advice to the judge, asking him to give him a lighter sentence. You must know that there are many kinds of exile, some The fringe planet is isolated from the world, with beautiful scenery, like a paradise, completely different from Cerberus, and people will have a good time there."

Rasimov felt the extremely cold gaze wandering over him, he stretched out his trembling hands, and held the knife with his teeth gritted.

The next moment, unexpectedly, Rahimov raised the dazzling dagger, and stabbed the bloated corpse fiercely on the ground, once, twice.

When he raised his head, sweat and tears ran across his face.

Helian Ding still smiled faintly: "I fully understand why you hate him so much." It seemed that he didn't care about the way Raximov looked at him, he was so resentful and angry, and wished that the knife was stabbed in his body .

Rasimov fell down on the ground dejectedly, Helendin walked past him, lowered his body, and said in a very solemn voice: "It was you who saved my little Yegor, and I am forever grateful for it." .So don’t worry, your end won’t be so miserable.”
