Under the cover of night, the area of the starship project team at Anyun Base was brightly lit.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and the flashing lights were enough to prove that the situation here was urgent. This sudden engineering accident broke the calm of the starship manufacturing area, and the casualties of dozens of people made Chen Lin even more nervous. The project leader rushed back overnight.
After receiving the notice, Chen Lin rushed back to Anyun Base overnight. When Chen Lin arrived at the scene, the fire had been extinguished by the staff, but the scene was still in a mess.
Chen Lin's brows furrowed. He glanced at the situation at the scene. The explosion of the energy storage device caused one side of the spacecraft's hull to become a giant crater. Even the Xinghai Alloy was blown through!
“The person in charge!”
When everyone saw Chen Lin coming, they rushed over one after another.
The on-site commander was the deputy of Anyun Base. When he saw Chen Lin, he immediately showed a helpless look on his face: "The incident happened suddenly, and it alarmed you from the other side of the earth... "
"It's not a trivial matter, I will definitely come back."
Chen Lin spoke to the deputy. After he finished speaking, he turned to the staff aside and said: "Start the accident investigation immediately. Procedure, I want to know the specific cause of the accident!"
His voice revealed unquestionable authority, and the staff immediately nodded and urged, while Chen Lin was guided by other staff on site. A temporary command location.
Here, Chen Lin saw a high-definition live video. The exploded hull was a mining ship used for interstellar mineral collection. In order to ensure super transportation capabilities, it was specially equipped with a super energy reserve device, which was also used for propulsion. to use.
As a result, the accident became the most serious source of the accident. The power of the explosion was so powerful that even Xinghai Alloy could not withstand it.
“However, the reason why this Xinghai Alloy was blown through is entirely because we only installed the first layer of protection... The hull has not been completely completed yet. According to normal work, we need to install additional layers here. Four layers of protection, with two layers of Xinghai alloy and two layers of heterogeneous steel alloy in the middle..."
Someone was briefly explaining to Chen Lin, while Chen Lin went to see the wounded first - in fact Because of the existence of the treatment device, as long as they are not directly brain-dead due to bad luck at the scene, the remaining people can be completely cured by the treatment device.
Therefore, the injured Chen Lin saw were currently soaking in nutrient solution. Many of the minor injuries had already been completely healed, and they were all receiving psychological treatment at this time.
Chen Lin was quite satisfied with this action. The staff in the distance were also acting quickly. After the fire was extinguished, this group of people began to collect evidence from the scene and analyze the cause of the accident. A group of people were busy coming in and out, taking pictures and leaving traces... …
Chen Lin and all the department heads of Anyun Base were standing at the command post. Chen Lin glanced at the group of people in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Starship Manufacturing The head of the department stood up. "
A man with glasses stood up from the crowd. He swallowed and looked nervous because he didn't know what would happen next.
“Do you think this accident was man-made or an accident?”
Chen Lin asked a question that the on-site personnel thought was quite outrageous. At least it was obvious from their initial exploration work that this time The accident was actually an accident.
"I personally think... it was an accident."
"Oh? Are you sure?"
Chen Lin stared at the man and asked aloud: "Why did I see artificiality from the scene? Signs of detonation? "
After hearing this, the man suddenly raised his head and wanted to ask about the situation. At this time, a staff member outside hurried over with a look of panic on his face. , reported directly to Chen Lin above: "Chief in charge, we found some strange traces at the accident scene, which look like signs of man-made sabotage."
Chen Lin's expression did not change much, and he stood there The man with glasses in front felt his heart sink suddenly - he was really afraid of what might happen. Just now, the person in charge Chen Lin said there were signs of sabotage, and the next second someone came in and said they had found something. This thing was also It’s so scary! ?
"Let it out."
Chen Lin waved his hand towards the staff member who rushed in, and the staff member immediately moved in the things he had just obtained along with his colleagues.
It was a charred energy storage device. After moving in, everyone was surprised to see very obvious scratches on it. Although it had been burned, these energy storage devices themselves were made of energy. The stone is directly modified and used. Even if its texture is very hard, it can be easily seen if it is damaged by humans.
Someone squeezed out from the crowd at the scene. He squatted down and looked at the charred device for a long time, and finally raised his head with a solemn expression: "The person in charge is right, this is indeed the case. Someone deliberately sabotaged..."
"I already know"
Chen Lin sat on the chair and waved his hands, and everyone immediately realized that he might be serious about it next.
These people on site are all core members. Chen Lin had already summoned the core members of the project team before he came. All the people on site at this time were relevant personnel.
"Contact the security department of Anyun Base."
Chen Lin said lightly to the assistant on the side, "Give me the list of personnel and entry and exit details of the starship that was involved in the recent construction period. Get it out, I want the detailed surveillance camera footage before and after the ship exploded, and bring it all up."
Assistant Zhao didn't say any nonsense, he just took out his cell phone and dialed a phone number.
"Lead the team to the starship area. The person in charge requested it."
After saying this, he hung up the phone, nodded to everyone, and then turned around and left the command post.
Chen Lin sat in silence for several seconds before speaking slowly: "Some people become slack after sitting in the same position for a long time, and feel that their lives are comfortable. I lost my vigilance.”
“Isn’t it true that each of you has forgotten what the association was like when it first came to this continent?”
The faces on the scene. Their expressions were very exciting, and Chen Lin was too lazy to say anything more. He just motioned to the guards to block all nearby entrances and exits.
The starship area itself is a highly confidential work and project. There are many troops and armed personnel stationed in this area, and Chen Lin immediately mobilized them all with an order.
The work of the entire project team was temporarily stopped. A large number of security personnel and armed personnel took over various tasks and positions. The formation was so large that even Li Tianyun, the president of the association in Beidu, was alarmed.
This sudden appearance in the middle of the night, even if Li Tianyun knew what was going on, he still had to call and ask what was going on. Chen Lin acted very calmly on the phone and said directly specific situation and expressed his own speculation.
"...You mean there are saboteurs over there at Anyun Base?"
Li Tianyun was somewhat unbelievable. Anyun Base had been safe and sound before. Since the White Eagle Association came to After the Earth side was defeated head-on by the Red Dragon Association, there was almost nothing unusual about the work on Origin Star.
Now, an accident suddenly occurs, and after the incident is investigated, it is found to be man-made sabotage. This is always a bit surprising. "Yes, President,"
Chen Lin said on the phone, "On the way back, I asked people to visit the scene carefully. The energy reserve device is dedicated The equipment was destroyed and detonated, and there are actually very few of these devices at Anyun Base. It can be said that what happened this time was actually caused by our own people at Anyun Base.”
Li Tianyun sighed deeply, and said half incredulously and half regretfully: "What do you think these people are thinking? They always do such secret things, not to mention delaying the work of the association. , and caused people to panic..."
"The association already knows about it, so just investigate it boldly and carefully, and then give the association a result."
"Some people are dishonest, so we must teach them a lesson!"
"I understand, President."
Chen Lin hung up the phone, and the staff at the scene didn't realize it They all swallowed hard. They all knew very well who Chen Lin was talking on the phone just now. Chen Lin's demeanor was as if he was chatting with the old man next door. This concept was somewhat distant to them.
Without resting for the rest of the night, the security department of Anyun Base acted quickly, first sealing off the entire starship area, and then the surveillance video and personnel transfer records were urgently retrieved, and the case handling experts began to carefully Analyze every frame, every document, looking for any possible clues.
After several hours of intense work, the security department finally determined that three people were obviously suspected of committing the crime.
Their behavior appeared unusual on surveillance, and they were all present in key areas before and after the incident.
After Chen Lin learned the news, he said without any hesitation that he would take action personally.
Time is tight, and the starship project cannot be delayed. It is best to stop work at night, and everything will be normal during the day - so he must find out the truth as soon as possible.
Chen Lin walked into the interrogation room. The three suspects were all locked up here, and they didn't even have a chair to sit on.
Chen Lin glanced at the three of them, and his voice sounded a little cold: "The murderer is one of the three of you. Now I will give you a chance - if you are willing to confess now, I can reduce his penalty as appropriate. Crime.”
"If you don't want to, don't blame me for being cruel."
"This is a big project of the association. It hinders the development of this kind of project. I think you should know what the consequences will be."
The three suspects looked at each other, with tension and fear in their eyes. They each raised their heads and glanced at Chen Lin, and found that the eyes of the general manager of Anyun Base were always staring at them. He His gaze seemed to penetrate their hearts!
No one spoke for several minutes. Finally, one of them couldn't help it anymore. He lowered his head and said in a trembling voice to Chen Lin: "I did it..."
Chen Lin's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he asked coldly: "Why?"
The expression on the man's face was complicated, with a trace of shame and fear flashing in his eyes.
Although his voice trembled, he tried to remain calm: "I... I just did it because of the benefits and salary... I didn't deliberately have much hatred for the association project, I just wanted to... just... I just wanted my colleagues to be punished for the project they were responsible for.”
A trace of surprise flashed in Chen Lin’s eyes. He didn’t expect the motivation behind it to be so simple, yet so selfish.
He sighed deeply, feeling an indescribable feeling of powerlessness in his heart.
“Do you know that your actions not only affect one project, but may also affect the safety of the entire base and the lives of countless people?”
Chen Lin's voice sounded after a while, and the man lowered his head, tears falling uncontrollably: "I know, I know I was wrong... I was just... just impulsive!"
Chen Lin Standing up, the expression on his face has become very serious: "Your actions will be severely punished by the law. I hope you can truly realize your mistakes and take responsibility for your actions."
"But I will also reduce your punishment as I just said."
Chen Lin turned around and said to the security department personnel on the side: "Take him down and deal with it according to the regulations."
The one next to him. The staff immediately took the man out directly, and the remaining two people were obviously relieved. They seemed to think that the situation was simply over. Who would have thought that Chen Lin would signal the security department personnel to remove the two people. They separated immediately, and then started chatting with the two of them alone.
Chen Lin still used the same words, but in the end, both of them insisted that he was not the saboteur, and they were not aware of the content at all.
This had no effect on Chen Lin at all. He sighed slightly, and then snapped his fingers - the exclusive magic spell of the Origin Star that had not been used for a long time was once again chanted in Chen Lin's heart. , the next second the staff member in front of him shrank his eyes.
"Name."
"Xu Guan."
"What projects are you mainly responsible for?"
"The installation and maintenance of starship energy storage equipment take into account the circuit design."
"Who was in charge of the previous sabotage actions?"
"It was me..."
< br>“Why?”
“Because we need to change to new jobs and replace existing jobs. We are very dissatisfied with the current work in all aspects. I specially invited three Colleagues, there is another person you haven’t noticed yet. He is mainly responsible for the installation of Xinghai Alloy shell..."
The cameras in Chen Lin's interrogation room were turned on, and all the contents of his interrogation could actually be seen by the Red Dragon Association. After Li Tianyun got the news, he was completely confused. He never expected the final result. It turned out to be like this.
The employee benefits provided by Anyun Base are not only unparalleled, but at least they are unparalleled among the others on the Origin Star. It can be said that not many people in the entire Red Dragon Association can match it. ——But these employees are still not satisfied, and even want to use the work at hand to sabotage to achieve their purpose of changing positions!
This sounds incredible, but now it has actually happened.
The interrogation by another staff member was even simpler. Chen Lin didn't even need to cast any magic spells. He just repeated what the man named Xu said before, and it was automatically done here.
He looked at the information of several people on the list with great regret. They were all very promising scientific and technological talents, but they overturned here. Chen Lin really didn't understand what was going on... (End of chapter)
