Chapter 976: Leakage
975. Leakage
Several robots immediately came over and grabbed Padme's wrist.
Seeing this scene, Rush Clovis was furious and rushed over and grabbed Lot Dude by the collar, "What are you doing! Who gave you the courage to arrest a member of the Republic? "?"
At this time, Padmé was also quietly gesturing to Anakin, asking him to take the things out as soon as possible.
Although Anakin was worried, he still understood the priority of the matter, and he immediately took advantage of the chaos here to leave the palace. At least he understood that the people present were still prominent figures in the political arena of the Republic and would not dare to do anything to a congressman.
As for the separatist Thunbark Tula, it is even more impossible to make such a decision based on her coward appearance.
Lot-Dude said sharply: "We have seen it through the surveillance! Senator Padmé secretly operated our database host!"
"This is impossible!" Lovis was shocked and quickly ran over to check on the host. When he saw it, he found that the plan on the host was no longer there.
He sighed deeply, turned to Lott Dude and said, "Okay, this is just an investment plan. Make a new copy for me."
As soon as she heard him say this, Padmé Amidala realized that she had just done a stupid thing. The fact that she wanted to delay this project was to delay the advent of this super battleship as much as possible.
But in fact, how could such a detailed design of a battleship appear here? As Clovis said, this is just an investment plan.
However, her rash deletion of the plan exposed her true purpose.
Clovis turned and looked at Padmé again, "So everything you told me was a lie, right?...Hand over the things." His words were full of sadness.
"I don't know what you are talking about! But the person who was really deceived is me! It is the Galactic Republic!" Padmé said sharply.
"No, you made a huge mistake, Padmé." Clovis waved his hand, and the robot that grabbed her immediately searched in her bag, but found nothing.
"Lock her up! Until the matter is resolved!" Lot-Dude waved his hand to the robot to take Padmé down, and then said to Clovis, "As for you, Clovis Mr. Si. You should explain this leak to your chairman, Thorn Hill, and the five core members of the Interstellar Banking Association!"
Clovis' face was extremely gloomy, no. say.
......
Anakin Skywalker ran to the corner of the palace and wanted to use the communicator to report the situation here first, but found that global communication interference had been turned on and could not be sent out at all. Any message.
He then tried to leave the palace and go to the spaceport, but found that the same road was blocked. Security robots began to come over and block all the entrances and exits. Although these robots were still more polite and did not show their weapons, they still couldn't rush out unless they took out their lightsabers.
The biggest problem now is that he cannot shine the lightsaber. Otherwise, if the Jedi trespass into the heart of the Trade Federation, no matter what you find out in the end, it will cause an uproar.
However, at this time, he suddenly saw several robots escorting Padmé towards the basement from a distance, and he felt even more furious!
He quietly found Rock Johnson and handed him the memory. Then Johnson immediately connected the memory and copied all the contents into his own memory. After that, Anakin took the memory again. Follow him all the way to the basement.
He came directly in front of Rush Clovis, raised his hands, showed the memory in his hand and said: "I have the thing here! This is your evidence! Let go of Pa... Mr. Congressman, I'll give it to you."
"You despicable Republic spies! You all deserve to die!" Lot-Dude cursed.
Rush Clovis said: "Give me the things. After confirming that they are correct, I will let Padmé go back."
"This is impossible!" Lot-Dude shouted. "Nothing is impossible! The most important thing now is to get the things back first!" Clovis said sternly, and then he turned to Anakin, "You are Padmé's pilot, you should know me. I It’s Rush Clovis, the representative of the Scipio Sector and the Councilor of the Interstellar Banking Association! If you give me the things, I will let Padmé go!” br>
Anakin Skywalker pretended to hesitate, thought for a while, and then said: "Okay, I believe you."
He tossed the memory to Clovis.
Clovis immediately checked in his personal terminal and found that the investment plan for the endless-class super aircraft carrier was indeed in the memory, so he nodded and said to Lot-Dude: "This is the plan. Let him go."
"Impossible!" Lott-Dude sneered, "Don't think this is the end of it, Mr. Clovis. You must know that this is an extremely serious leak. ! And you are the first person responsible! Do you think that if you just take the things back and let the people go, this matter will disappear?"
He pointed at Padme and said: " As soon as this person returns to the parliament, he will tell everything he saw and heard!"
"No one will believe what she heard!" Clovis snapped.
Lot-Dude laughed ferociously, "Dream, Clovis! Hahahaha, you also have this day? When you were bossing around in front of us, did you ever think that there would be such a huge handle in my hands? Since then, From now on, you have to listen to me in everything!"
When Anakin Skywalker saw this situation, he felt that things were going to get worse. He did not expect that there was also a conflict between the other party. Just as he was thinking about it, When he was about to rob someone, Clovis suddenly made the move first!
He suddenly took out a table knife from his waist, then grabbed Lot Dude and put the table knife on his neck!
Lot Dude was stunned by this turn of events. In addition, the Neimoidians were not a race known for their physical strength. He was immediately restrained and unable to break free.
"You...you are crazy! Do you know what you are doing? You kidnapped a Trade Federation executive on the wealth world of Cato-Neimoidia!!" Lot- Dude's legs were shaking and he said in a shaky voice.
"Let him go!" Clovis said, pushing the knife forward.
Lot-Dude was so frightened that he quickly asked the robot to let Padmé go.
While holding Lot-Dude, Clovis said to Padmé: "Get out of here now, and we will talk about things between us later."
They said to Lot -Dude, as a hostage, walked all the way to the space port, picking up other members of Padmé's team on the way, including the T-850 robot Rock Johnson.
Lot-Dude was so frightened that he almost wet his pants. All the guards and robots were allowed to pass along the way, but more and more guards followed them. When they arrived at the space port, they were already Hundreds of guards and robots followed.
"The Trade Federation will not give up!" Lott-Dude said viciously.
"I will naturally explain it." Rush Clovis said through gritted teeth.
"So this is your own business." At this time, Anakin Skywalker behind him suddenly said this.
Clovis was startled. Before he could react, he felt a sharp push on his back. Then he and Lott Dude fell forward and rolled into a ball on the ground.
When he looked up again, he found that the pilot had already taken Padmé Amidala onto the Naboo Royal Cruiser, leaving him with only a cold look.
"Wait a minute, we should take him..." Padmé seemed to want to say something, but she felt Anakin's hand holding hers slightly harder.
When she looked up again, she saw Anakin's determined eyes and understood everything, so she took a step back and stood behind Anakin.
