The Death Knell

"Nothing is lost? And can each spacecraft find its corresponding owner?"

About three minutes later, Carol got the results of Agent Brand's report, which obviously made her doubt her previous judgment.

The light from the stars outside the window shone into the cabin, and her blond hair seemed to be shrouded in a faint blue light. The golden thread on the chest of the red and blue uniform was dimmed a bit at this time.

"Yes, Director, we have checked all cargo entry and exit records, and reviewed all existing surveillance videos." The female voice in the communicator was very sure, and she also sent Carol a written Memo: "All ships in port have owners and are alive."

"So there were people stranded on the ship that passed by before?"

Carol tilted her head and sat back on the sofa, next to Deathstroke, who was petting the cat.

Slade must be a real cat lover, because the orange cat was very comfortable with his skillful manipulations. At this time, he lay on his back with his belly exposed, grabbed his hand with his paws, and put it on his chin.

"No, Director, in order to prevent someone from living in the space station, we have already activated biometric scanning equipment on the dock. Currently, according to the data, the number of arrivals and departures is equal. Facial recognition work is in progress, but it should It’s not a big problem, all our own employees are on duty.”

There was the sound of high heels walking from Agent Brand's side. She seemed to be communicating and busy with something in the command center.

"That shouldn't be the case. No spatial fluctuations were detected before, so it's impossible for the human bomb to be teleported in."

Carol raised her hands and rubbed her face, poured herself a glass of water and drank it. She felt that there was something missing, which made her heart feel like it was on fire. She said her thoughts again:

"An unknown person launched a suicide attack on us, but did not attack the crowd, and the power of the bomb was not enough to eliminate us, so this was not a terrorist attack, but an attempt to divert the tiger away from the mountain. The person behind the scenes must have a plan for something elsewhere on the space station. , I did not increase the bomb charge to destroy the space station. My judgment should be correct, at least the logic makes sense."

"I don't know, sir, but at this point, we have no clues. You are the supreme commander of the space station. What should we do next? Please give instructions."

It’s not that the female agent has any objections to Carol. Her character is a bit similar to Deputy Director Hill of SHIELD, and she is the kind of woman with a serious style.

However, this is also a good thing. After all, no one wants the boss who controls their life to be smiling every day, right?

"Well, please wait a moment."

Saying so hungry, Carol turned her eyes to the death knell beside her. The man was holding the orange cat's two front paws and teaching it to dance the waterweed dance.

He didn't seem to be very concerned about what happened on the space station, and he didn't even express much opinion.

"Slade, please help me think about it, what is going on?"

She pinched her throat and changed into a girlish voice, and reached out to grab Deathstroke's arm and shook it, her little face turned slightly red with a shy look.

I just don't know who she learned her coquettish way from. The force of these two swings weighed dozens of tons. If it had been anyone else, she would have been thrown away long ago.

But even so, the sofa under the two people's buttocks still made a harsh friction sound and almost fell apart.

"As Brand said, you are now the supreme commander of the space station. You must make your own judgment. I can't always give you advice."

After being 'spoiled' by the female man with great force, Su Ming rolled his eyes speechlessly, picked up the orange cat and put it on the coffee table. He looked at the adorable appearance of the element-devouring beast that did not dare to jump off the table, without squinting. Said:

"But I'm sure that your logic is correct. The enemy did choose to keep the space station in order to take away something here instead of destroying it. Judging from the technological level displayed by the opponent, the enemy is completely capable The ability to build bigger bombs, or get more 'volunteers', seems to be more emotionally intelligent than using the word 'meat bombs'."

After saying that, he took out another gem, placed it in his palm like a hard candy, and let the cat lick it.

"I am a soldier and I have never been emotionally intelligent towards terrorists. Only eliminating them is the best solution."

Carol also obviously found that coquettishness was not suitable for her. Another skill that Mary taught her proved useless, so she returned to her usual voice:

"But the key thing is, we don't know what was thrown or how the bombs got there."

"There's really nothing I can do against you. In fact, if you just think about it, you can find many ways to smuggle people in. The simplest one is to put people in cargo boxes and send them in as supplies."

Putting the gem on the table and letting the orange cat eat it, Su Ming took back his hand and wiped the saliva from his palm, explaining:

"Of course, whether the other party can hide from the life detection scan is another matter. But have you ever thought that the self-destruction attacker might be on the space station from the beginning?"

After hearing some instructive instructions from Deathstroke, Carol tilted her head and rolled her eyes a few times:

"You said that Roubang was actually one of the workers who built this place?"

The construction process of the Tianjian Bureau Space Station can be said to be quite long. Construction started the second year after Carol returned to Earth, and it has not been completed until now, which took about seven or eight years.

Many people participated in this project during this period, and the past accounts are even more unclear.

"Yes, we are on the right track." Su Ming stood up. He stretched out his hand to Carol and pulled her up from the sofa: "I have been thinking about what kind of attacker he is. I can’t use the time stone to retrace the timeline and see the face clearly.”

There is something worth noting here.

If he is very strong and can block prying eyes from the timeline level, then he cannot be killed by a bomb.

And now the attacker did blow himself up.

So, is the main messenger behind him capable of concealing time? Or, there is another possibility. This person should not exist at the time of the explosion.

Whether it was being able to hide time, or making people not exist at a certain point in time, Su Ming was reminded of a person.

Kang the Conqueror.

However, as soon as the blue man's face appeared in his mind, this possibility was ruled out by Deathstroke himself.

The key point is that Kang is a nugget who can't get rid of him. Every time he makes a plan, he comes for Su Ming, and a Tianjian Bureau space station? It's not the TVA headquarters or Sepulk. Even if it explodes, what will Deathstroke lose?

Kill a group of adventurers and thwart the great space voyage plan?

Do you think terrorist attacks can stop people from traveling to space? Haha, I just don’t understand people’s thoughts.

Everyone wants to get rich, and everyone knows that there are risks on the road to getting rich. The explorers of the past on earth during the Age of Discovery did not know how much more dangerous their lives were than they are now.

Septicemia, unreliable wooden ships, ruthless pirates, crises of fresh water and food, unpredictable weather and wind direction.

Any one of them can kill someone.

But even so, why were people at that time rushing to go to sea and become explorers?

Isn't it because once you make any discovery or harvest, you can immediately become a noble, become a master, make a fortune, and get the opportunity to leave a name in history?

When asked who was the most famous Portuguese explorer in the fifteenth century, many people would answer Magellan; but if asked who was the king who sponsored his voyage, how many people could answer?

No one can resist the lure of fame and fortune, especially if you actually have the capital to give it a try.

Kang the Conqueror, no matter which timeline he is in, understands human nature very well. He will not attack a space station that is not taken seriously by Deathstroke, let alone use such a plan that does not understand people's hearts.

If someone really wanted to prevent people on earth from going to the universe through large-scale indiscriminate killing, Su Ming would immediately come up with a corresponding backup plan.

That is to announce to people that a "big mine" has been discovered in the universe, and those people who died were killed by aliens to prevent humans from obtaining those treasures.

At that time, whether in order to avenge their compatriots or to obtain more benefits, as long as they are incited a little and provided with weapons sufficient to deal with the problem, people will only enter space in large numbers more enthusiastically.

Su Ming did not perform this drama by killing people and then blaming the aliens. He was already doing good.

So back to the topic, after eliminating Kang’s suspicion, there are only seven or eight remaining possibilities for the ‘Little Hei’ whose true appearance cannot be seen in the timeline. He is a self-destructed cannon fodder that was thrown out.
