star hunter

"No one alive?" Xilin asked with a frown.

"The gravity inside the transport ship is now zero, and the oxygen content is extremely low. The energy fluctuation detection in the engine room shows that it is in a closed state. As for the life signal, I have not detected an active signal point yet. Of course, there is no active signal.

There may be survivors, but the probability is extremely low." Ah Yue replied, "Furthermore, because the power system and main control system inside are shut down, I can't get more information. If I can enter the transport ship,

I can get more, okay?"

Xilin thought for a while, stood up and walked towards the control room, "I, Xiying, Xisage, and Ayue will go over first and take a look. Kari, you guys get ready. I will contact you if necessary."

"receive!"

Shosage came to the equipment room and took out the equipment from the cabinet, including protective clothing, respiratory masks, guns, wrist knives, gravity shoe covers, etc. Although some things were not exactly the same as those used in the army, they were still similar.

, can adapt to it.

"Hey, old man, be careful, don't be too embarrassed." Tesoruo stood not far away and said towards us.

Shosage put on the gravity shoe covers, glanced at Tesoruo, and said, "Do you think I'm as weak as you?" After quickly putting on the equipment, Shosage stretched out his hand and exerted force on Tesoro's head.

He rubbed it until Tesoro's hair was smashed into pieces, and then ran away before Tesoro got mad.

Asia on the side shook her head, what an awkward father and son.

Both Xilin and Shusage need to wear protective clothing. But Xiying and Ayue don't need to. Ayue looks very excited. It is obviously not a dull guy like Sigma, Ayue likes to take risks and try new things.

.

The starship gradually approached the transport ship. Xilin, Xiying and Shusage stood at the bridge port protruding from the starship, while Ah Yue had already flown out and stood close to the transport ship's hatch, with blue eyes on his face.

The strip of light flashes as it decodes the hatch's controls.

嗗——

Soon, the hatch of the transport ship opened. Just as Ah Yue said, the power system inside had malfunctioned or was shut down. Darkness entered the eyes.

Xilin made a gesture, and the three of them jumped towards the open door of the transport ship. The gravity shoe covers stuck to the ground in the transport ship's cabin, allowing them to stand firm.

Holding the gray cat that was about to rush inside, Xilin said: "Don't move around yet, stay still."

The gray cat flicked its ears and reluctantly squatted on Xilin's shoulder, looking left and right while observing the situation inside.

"Let's go in first." Xilin said to Youdi, and then walked inside.

"There are many dead people inside." The gray cat said. It had detected the situation at the entrance of the passage not far away.

"Xilin, do you want me to hack into the main power system and turn on the power?" Ah Yue asked.

"No. Don't turn on the power first. Find out what's wrong with the power system. Don't leave any traces." Xilin meant to let Ah Yue find out whether the failure of the power system was accidental or man-made, but there should be no traces of intrusion.

.

"Understood." Ah Yue was very confident in her abilities.

Continuing to walk inside, you will see what the gray cat said.

The corpses, some blood clots, and spurted blood in the passage were all floating because they were in a state of weightlessness. There were also some trailing blood stains and bloody palm prints on the walls of the passage. These were all left by the deceased.

"Who are they?" Shosag asked, "They look like ordinary employees."

"I don't know." Xilin looked at the clothes of these people. He didn't find anything iconic on their clothes, but judging from the materials of the sailing clothes these people wore, it seemed that the power behind these people was quite large.

"Try not to touch those blood beads and blood clots, keep them as they are." Xilin said to Xisage and Xiying, paused and emphasized to the gray cat: "Don't leave paw prints!"

"Okay." The gray cat retracted its paws and raised its front paws to show Xilin the small pads on its fat paws. "Is this okay?"

"These people..." Shusag looked at a corpse floating next to him and pointed to a stab wound on it: "A very professional stab wound."

From an incision, you can tell how well a person uses a knife, and from the dead man in front of him, Shosage knew that the people who killed these people were professionals who used sharp knives to kill with one blow, without any delay.

Walking further inside, Ah Yue opened a door and entered the control area of ​​the main cabin. There were more dead bodies floating here. Horror and disbelief could be seen on some people's faces. Maybe when the massacre came, they would not be there after all.

No reaction came.

Many people did not hold weapons in their hands, and judging from genetic analysis, these people were relatively ordinary.

"What did you see?" Xilin asked Xisage next to him.

"This is a unilateral massacre. It can be seen that the massacres were a well-trained team and fully equipped. They didn't even leave any obvious traces. And..." Shusage pointed at the floating boat not far away.

A person, "That person should be a more powerful character, right?"

Xilin looked in the direction that Shosage was pointing, and there was a person floating there, but the difference was that the fatal wound on that person was not a knife wound, but a gunshot wound. The genetic test results showed that this person had an A-level gene

.

The Star Alliance uses genetic level as the criterion. Therefore, when facing people with A-level genes, they cannot take it lightly even if they have not undergone professional training. Therefore, these massacres did not engage in close combat, but snipers used bullets.

This man was killed. The bullet penetrated so strongly that the man's entire heart was almost exploded by the bullet. However, the bullet did not have many other features. It was impossible to tell what type of gun it was, and it was obviously disguised.

Although they were wearing the same sailing attire, the killers were able to tell which of them had A-level genes, which proved that the killers knew the distribution of people in the transport ship very well, which ones were stronger and which ones

Be clear about your weaknesses, and then make a plan that saves the least effort and time.

"Can you write a report?" Xilin looked at Shusage.

"It's not bad. When I was in the army, I used to write summary reports after missions."

"Let's summarize it when we get back."

"OK."

After walking around inside, the warehouses of the transport ship have been emptied. Judging from the residue detection, these warehouses are loaded with high-quality energy blocks. There are also some rare metal mines and some high-end equipment.

"Anyone who loses such a valuable thing will be furious. I just don't know who the unlucky guy will be." The gray cat said slowly. It was also planning to come over to get some benefits and save some private money, but who knows, it didn't make any money at all.

What a disappointment!

"The question is. Such a valuable thing must be escorted by powerful guards, right? Where are the escorts?" Shusage looked around and found no trace of guards. The ones floating outside were all relatively ordinary employees.

.There are a few good ones, but they are a minority after all, and they are probably not members of the guard.

"There is a possibility over there." Xiying pointed to a passage. He could analyze that the person over there was obviously stronger than those in front.

The passage Xiying pointed to is connected to the warehouse. There is a spiral staircase at the turning point, leading to the upper floor. As for this turning point, one side leads to the control cabin and the warehouse, and the other side is the bathroom. Except for the one in the passage

In addition to the guards, there were two other guard members floating at the turning point. They also had gunshot wounds on their bodies. They were killed with one shot.

"Captain, do you need support?" Cary asked through the communicator.

"No need for now." Xilin was afraid that too many people would leave more traces. He didn't want people to know that they had been here.

"It should be the resting place for the escort members."

Xisage was about to go up when he was stopped by Xiying.

"poisonous."

"What?" Shusage retracted his step.

"The content here is very small, but the higher you go, the thicker it becomes." Xiying said.

"It is indeed poisonous. For the human body, this poisonous gas is fatal when it reaches a certain concentration." Ah Yue confirmed.

Xilin and Shosage checked the protective clothing on their bodies, then unfolded the breathing mask to cover the entire head without leaving any gaps.

"Let's go."

The higher you go, the stronger the poisonous gas becomes.

After going up the stairs, I found that the door in front of the stairs was closed. But there was a small crack next to it, and the poisonous gas leaked out from this small crack.

"Are you ready?" Ah Yue looked at Xilin, and after receiving Xilin's "OK" gesture, Ah Yue opened the door.

Everything that comes into view is nauseating.

Because of the erosion of this atomized poisonous gas, people who inhale the poisonous gas or have skin contact with the poisonous gas will have rapid nerve necrosis. This necrosis gradually spreads throughout the body, and the muscles and fat on the body will swell and become like foam, making the whole person look like

Like a cancer. And this room is so full of "cancer" that it is no longer possible to distinguish the human form.

The small crack in the door was made by these people with guns before they died, but due to the effect of the poison gas, they only opened a crack and could not hold on at all.

The two people who died at the turning point probably escaped the gas by going to the bathroom, but they didn't know there were snipers waiting there.

"The genotypes of most of these people are indeed A-level." Xilin said after the test. Coupled with the armor and clothes around them, it can be determined that these people are the guards of this transport ship.

But why did the guards gather here?

"Ah Yue, can you find the leader of these people?" Xilin asked.

"I don't know, but I will try to restore their communication records. There are many system records in this transport ship with traces of tampering."

The massacrers had modified the system monitoring records and some navigation communication records, which means that some of their information might have been exposed. If this information could be restored, it would be possible to infer that the massacrers knew more about it.

The other party was obviously a master in this area. With the joint efforts of Ah Yue and Haimao, most of them were restored, and some were cleared too thoroughly to obtain the original information. However, with this part of the restored records,

You can also learn more about the inside story.

Judging from the communication records, these escorts were summoned, and the person who could summon them must be the person in charge of the escort team, or the captain of the entire transport ship.

"The person who summoned them was notified through the communicator in the command room." Ah Yue said.

"But when we came from the command room over the control area just now, there was no one in the command room at all." This Shusage remembered it clearly. He was still feeling strange at the time.

Xilin thought for a while and said: "Go back and have a look. Ah Yue, you and Hulu continue to restore other information, and by the way, show me the members of this transport spacecraft. Can you get this? If not, I will do it myself.

"

"Of course!" Gray Cat and Ah Yue replied at the same time.

After closing the door at the stairs again, Xilin returned to the control area and found the command room. Logically speaking, the captain would be here, but no. No one suspected of being the captain was seen elsewhere. Xilin did not look for those remote corners.

, could it be that the captain hid in some small nook?

"No, he is here." Xiying stretched out his finger and circled in the air. "He should be here. It's just that it was decomposed. The proportions of the elements inside are obviously different from those outside, and I compared the human body

The types and contents of elements are very close to the amount for two people.”

A chill ran down the back of Shosage's intuition. Who on earth could do it so brilliantly? Forget about the massacre, they didn't even leave a whole corpse behind!

"Two people? If one of them is the captain, then who is the other? What are you trying to cover up by going to such great lengths to make these two people disappear?" Xilin wondered.

Just at this time, Ah Yue and Gray Cat had restored some deleted and tampered member records.

"Now, this is the captain you are talking about." Above the image projected by Ah Yue, an introductory picture and part of the text appeared.

Xilin did not know the person in the image, and Xiying did not have any information about this person.

"Show me other people's information." Xilin said.

Ah Yue switched the images, and the images of people shook one after another.

"Wait a minute!" Xilin suddenly said, "The first two, yes, this one!"

The person in the image is the person in charge of the escort team of the transport ship. He looks quite ordinary, has no characteristics, and is inconspicuous among the crowd. But Xilin remembers this person. Although it has been several years, Xilin still remembers him.

The first time Xilin met Daoance Avlan, when he accepted his first mission as a hunter of the Sixth Vanguard Squadron, he fought with two of Avlan's bodyguards, and the person in the image was Xilin

The one that was knocked away in the first place.

In this way, this transport ship is actually the cargo of the Daoance family, but this batch of cargo is very concealed. It can be seen from the attire of the crew members that they have no intention of being exposed at all. If someone else came over,

If you did, you would definitely not know that this is the product of the Aiflan family.

Robbing the goods of the Avlan family? Which party is it? If one of the people who was decomposed was the captain, the other should be the bodyguard.

"Know?" Shusage asked.

"Well, it might be someone from the Daoance family. It's just a guess."

"Big family? Is there any conspiracy here?"

"Based on what I know about the Daoance family, it is impossible for him not to make preparations, but when such a unilateral massacre occurs despite preparations, it can only be said that there is another spy within them. Collect more

Some information and then we'll leave."

"Then why are we collecting this information so carefully?" Shusage pointed at the floating people and blood beads, and then pointed at the image projected by Ah Yue.

"Now that I'm here, I can't go in vain. I don't want to make myself dirty, but I also want to get more chips. If you have a chance, you can sell this chip."

"It's really not easy." Shusage sighed.

"There is no way. Those old guys are getting better and better than the last. If you want to get money from them, you must make more preparations. Otherwise, you may be bitten back if you are a good person."

"However, let's investigate here and see how much benefits we can get in exchange for it?"

"I can't say for sure. It depends on how hard we investigate and collect information."

"Understood!" Shusag made a "know" gesture, and then carefully looked at the wounds and other details of the deceased, the scars corresponding to different genetic levels and possible opponents, as well as the estimate of the killer's combat power. These are important for

This is something that Shusag is very familiar with. Although he has been retired for a long time, he still retains some professional habits, and it will be much easier to sort out reports when he returns to the starship later.

Xilin went to the engine room to take a look. There were heavy human traces there. Someone entered the engine room to cut off the main power supply, stop the transport ship from sailing, and interfered with the main power system to change the gravity inside the transport ship. When the other party was in a hurry,

, slaughter it.

Before leaving the transport ship, Xilin asked Ah Yue to set up a monitoring program to see who would come to the transport ship in the future.

After Xilin returned to the starship, he held a small meeting and told Yudi and others not to tell anyone about the transport ship, otherwise they would get into unnecessary trouble.

"Okay, that's it, don't think about other things," Xilin pointed to a planet in the star map, "Our destination now is this hunting star, to eat meat."

"Okay, Xiao Shang, let's see who can hunt more prey this time?" Kari looked at Xiao Shang.

"Let's compete, who is afraid of whom?"

"I want to join too!" Tang Qiuqiu raised his hands.

…

Xilin ignored the small activities of those people and went back to the lounge to lie down and squint for a while. Five minutes later, Xilin helplessly opened his eyes and looked at the gray cat walking around beside him, unable to sit still.

"Just tell me if you have anything."

"What's the matter?" The gray cat stopped and turned his head to look away, but he obviously lacked confidence.

Xilin pinched the gray cat's furry ears and gently lifted them up, "Really?"

"No...no."

"Okay." Xilin let go of the gray cat's ears and stared at the gray cat, watching the stupid cat's tail getting stiffer and stiffer.

Finally unable to hold it any longer, the gray cat spat out a red gem.

This ruby ​​is about the size of Xilin's little fingernail and is as red as blood. When illuminated by a light source, it refracts a strange light that makes people unable to help but be intoxicated by it.

The ruby ​​has a fracture, as if it fell from something due to external force.

The gray cat's ability to measure value is now getting stronger and stronger. At that time, he spotted the ruby ​​​​at a glance among a pile of floating objects of flesh and blood, and swallowed it into his mouth while Xilin was not paying attention. He thought about how this ruby ​​​​could be lost.

It must be worth a hundred bags of fish crackers, right? But Xilin also said to try to keep it as it is, so the gray cat felt guilty and kept restless.

Looking at the ruby ​​in his hand, Xilin put it into a small box and said, "Put it away for now. If there is no big use for it, I will sell it to you to buy cat food."

After receiving Xilin's answer, the gray cat was very satisfied and had nothing to worry about. The gray cat quickly formed a circle next to Xilin and began to fall asleep. When he woke up, he had to hunt and recharge his batteries!

Xilin closed his eyes, but did not really fall asleep. He was thinking about a problem. According to the shape of the gemstone, the gemstone that Gray Cat got should be on a women's ring, and it is worth a lot of money. But on the transport ship

On the ship, Xilin found no one who matched the member information compiled by Ah Yue. There were less than one-tenth of the women on the transport ship, and they were all ordinary employees.

Who is the woman who can wear this kind of ruby? (To be continued)
