Spy Family

Mei Wangzhen noticed something unusual and contacted the on-site commander on the other side through his helmet, "There seems to be something wrong with the drone left in Zicheng."

"Oh, it's normal. Sometimes it's because the tank is moving too fast or too far away. Sometimes it's because of weather changes. In order to enhance confidentiality and security, military networks inevitably have to make some sacrifices in other aspects."

"Should we just let the network be disconnected and ignore it?"

"If it were wartime, we would send more drones or switch to a backup network."

"Then switch."

"But...the mission is over, and the drone should be on its way back now..."

"The mission is over, but retreat should also be part of the drill. Assume that this is a real battlefield and the rear commander announces that the battle is over. Can we sit back and relax? As long as we have not returned to the main force, we should remain vigilant. Bar?"

The on-site commander hesitated for a moment, "You are right, this team is in the exercise stage before returning to the Earthship."

His voice disappeared, giving the order to switch to the backup network through two lieutenants.

"Sister Zhen, are you worried about an accident?" Lu Yezhou also felt that the mission was over. The other party had given a direct order to move out of the joint committee. Both the third uncle and Pei Xiaoan were suspended. There was nothing they could do.

"At least see Lao Bei."

The network was restored, and the drone began to transmit data again. In the picture, the city was quiet, and the sisters who had been standing on the edge of the city had dispersed.

The scene quickly changes to wilderness, with drones on their way to rendezvous with ground troops.

"Can you let the drone shoot for a while?" Mei Wangzhen once again contacted the on-site commander on the opposite side.

"Sorry, this won't work. Whether it's an attack or a retreat, there are strict step requirements. I can't change them at will. The drone must maintain a specified distance from the ground troops, not too far or too close."

"Understood. Can I still see the footage taken by the drone during the network outage?"

"Okay, the drone is transmitting data. You can see it later, drone number 27."

"Thank you." Mei Wangzhen entered the monitoring sub-page and found UAV No. 27. Sure enough, there was a playback option. You can choose any time period. The most recent period showed that it was being transmitted.

Lu Yezhou also entered the same page, "Old Bei should be fine. No matter how angry the Zhai Wangxing Joint Committee is, it will not abandon an investigator. It's just a pity that Sister Manchuan was not found, and Third Uncle and Colonel Pei were implicated. Their careers were not going well to begin with, but after this incident, I'm afraid it will be even harder to turn around..."

"The two alien sisters that the eldest sister mentioned must be Chen Manchi and Guan Zhuqian. The third uncle and Pei Xiaoan have not been implicated. They have their own judgment."

"Yes, the picture was transmitted... Why is it completely black?"

What Mei Wangzhen saw was also black, pure black, instead of the slightly bright night. She immediately asked the on-site commander.

The on-site commander was also surprised, "This kind of thing doesn't happen often. It seems to have been interfered with. The picture should still be there. I will start repairing it right away. It won't take long, maybe five or six minutes."

Although this team is small in size, its equipment is not low, and it has everything it needs. The on-site commander started the repair process, and the pure black screen began to "break" piece by piece, revealing the true appearance behind it.

The picture was not very coherent. Lu Yezhou suddenly said: "I saw Lao Bei. He seemed... holding someone's hand."

Mei Wangzhen also saw it, stopped the picture, and waited for it to be restored bit by bit.

"It's not Sister Manchuan, her hair is not that long and fluffy, but why does Lao Bei hold her hand?"

Mei Wangzhen said with certainty: "That's Chen Manchi, Lao Bei has found her. Commander, we need to return to Zicheng immediately."

The on-site commander refused firmly, "If there is no order from above, it is up to you to decide where to go. At this moment, I am executing a higher-level order and cannot help you."

"Huh?" Lu Yezhou was about to persuade, but Mei Wangzhen said: "Don't make it difficult for Commander, he is right, our level is not enough. Commander, please stop the car, we will go to Zicheng by ourselves."

"This..." The commander hesitated.

Lu Yezhou immediately said: "We are not soldiers, you have no obligation to take us back to the Earth ship."

"But I can't allow you to leave. This is the only way. I will order to stop, rest for five minutes, check on the broken-down chariot, and then get back on the road. As for what you two want to do, I don't ask, you also No need to ask for my permission.”

"Thank you." Mei Wangzhen took off his helmet, put on his exoskeleton device, and put on the other one too. Lu Yezhou did as he was told. As soon as the car door opened, the two of them jumped out.

The on-site commander checked the tank through the Internet and confirmed that it really couldn't start, then ordered it to get back on the road.

The two people outside put on their exoskeletons and new helmets and headed towards Zicheng quickly. Lu Yezhou asked, "Don't you need to contact your superiors?"

"Third uncle has been suspended. Who should we contact? We recognize that it is Chen Manchi, and the people above will not admit it easily."

"That's right, that's really Sister Manchu, right?"

"It must be, you can tell by looking at Lao Bei." Mei Wangzhen didn't see the woman's face clearly, but from Lu Linbei's tense arms, she judged that the other person must be Chen Manchi.

"Anyway, there is no way out. Even if you make a mistake, it is better than waiting to be punished." Lu Yezhou said nothing more and ran slightly faster than Li Wangzhen.

Arriving near Zicheng, Lu Yezhou said: "In a town with more than 20,000 people, where can we find Lao Bei?"

"Of course it's through chip positioning."

"I was confused for a moment and forgot that Sister Zhen always carries her device with her, but can we use the network here?"

"It works, but the speed is a little slower." Mei Wangzhen stopped, took out the microcomputer to operate, and soon got the result, "Found him, he is at the edge of the city."

The two continued to move forward, circling outside the city, with Mei Wangzhen in front, and Lu Yezhou slowing down and staying about ten meters behind.

After approaching the target, Mei Wangzhen signaled Lu Yezhou behind her to stop. She quietly walked to the window and took a look inside.

She had heard about Nong Xingwen sneaking into Jiazi Star, but when she saw him sitting there, she was still stunned, and then she felt so nervous that it was difficult to move her body.

Nong Xingwen was sitting alone at the table, checking a microcomputer. He suddenly raised his head and said with a smile, "Why don't you come in?"

Mei Wangzhen seemed to have heard a spell that could not be broken. He moved slowly, opened the door and entered the room without even sending a signal to Lu Yezhou behind him.

Nong Xingwen was still checking the microcomputer, concentrating on it. He raised his head after a while, "When I saw someone approaching, I thought it would be you, and it was true. Why don't you take off your helmet, we are no longer enemies."

Mei Wangzhen took off his exoskeleton helmet and stared at a bracelet on the table, "Where are our people?"

"Don't worry, they are not in danger. I just said, we are no longer enemies."

"Whether they are enemies or not is not decided by one party alone."

"Haha, that's right. This peace is really decided by both parties."

"You are a fugitive."

"Yes, to be precise, I am a fugitive from Planet Uranus. From the moment King Zhai handed me over, the planet no longer has any responsibility or rights towards me."

Mei Wangzhen told himself not to listen to anything he said, so he raised his head slightly, "I don't care whether peace exists or who made it, hand over my friends now."

"You are still as reckless and as loyal as before, both to the organization and to your friends. You can kill me now, but there is no need. I am just an inconspicuous little person. My life and death cannot change anything. Moreover. , you are an investigator, and your most important and fundamental duty is to collect intelligence, you are not a killer."

Mei Wangzhen was slightly startled because his third uncle had criticized the three of them not long ago for collecting intelligence. He did not expect to hear these four words from Nong Xingwen's mouth again.

Nong Xingwen is like a shark wandering in the sea. He can quickly and accurately find the location of a target with just a hint of blood. "We all need intelligence. Jiazixing will soon develop explosively, and all forces will There will be an influx of people, and this place will become a holy place for intelligence. We don’t need to be friends, but there is no need to be enemies. Why can’t we cooperate? Everyone gets what they need. From my understanding, the espionage industry is sometimes like a free market. We need to compromise with each other and exchange some information frequently, and in this regard, we are a perfect match."

When Nong Xingwen mentioned the word "perfect match", there was a slight hint of ridicule. Mei Wangzhen was immediately alert, "Peace is not achieved by me, and compromise and exchange have nothing to do with me. I want to see people."

Li Wangzhen raised his right forearm and showed off the standard assault gun connected to the exoskeleton. Only the barrel was exposed, and it was more than 20 centimeters long. The shooting and ammunition supply systems were hidden inside the exoskeleton. "You said you were not You are an inconspicuous little person, so killing you will not have a great impact on peace."

Nong Xingwen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You have become mature. Okay, I admit defeat, I compromise, and your friend will accept the system separation in the city."

"Huh?" Mei Wangzhen didn't understand.

"You know what Jiazi Xing's 'system' is, right?"

"A distributed supercomputer system composed of fifty thousand Jiazi people."

"Exactly. Lu Linbei's fiancée briefly joined the system. If she wants to leave, she must completely separate and isolate herself from the system."

"You kidnapped Chen Manchi, and you had to ask her to take the initiative to isolate herself before letting her go?"

"The word 'kidnapping' is too strong. I suggest you not to use it. Well, your friend is back."

After Mei Wangzhen confirmed that there was no problem, he turned around and looked.

In the night, two people walked out of the city. They looked very much like Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi, but Mao Kongshan and the two officials were not there.

Lu Yezhou came into view and waved to Mei Wangzhen, saying that he had confirmed that these were really Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi.

Mei Wangzhen breathed a sigh of relief, and soon felt uneasy in his heart. Everything seemed to be going too smoothly.

"Look, this is what I mean by peace and compromise. In this regard, Lu Linbei is more open-minded. Even without Chen Manchi, he will accept the reality."

Mei Wangzhen put down the arm holding the gun and turned around to take a look. Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi were walking hand in hand, walking as easily as if they were walking in the park.

"What did you do to them?" Mei Wangzhen asked angrily.

Nong Xingwen's attention turned to the microcomputer again, "Compromise, this is the only thing I do to them."

The two people approached, and Lu Linbei said: "You are still here."

Mei Wangzhen hummed and looked at Chen Manchi. Although his hair was much shorter, it was really Chen Manchi. His expression was the same as before, a little confused and a little cunning.

"Sister Zhen, I'm sorry to trouble you." Chen slowly smiled.

Mei Wangzhen also smiled, but he couldn't get rid of a thought in his heart: Is Chen Manchi separated from the system, or is he strengthening his connection?
