Yagunakotol, core power chamber, frontline supply base.

"What's going on? The transport plane that the research institute experts were riding deviated from the course?" Ke Lan asked several other people participating in the remote meeting on the screen.

"According to our judgment, the transport plane is likely to be hijacked." Schroeder said with a serious face, "The situation is not optimistic."

"Who led the team responsible for escorting this group of experts?" Ke Lan asked again.

"It's Lin Qiming." A familiar name came out of Schroeder's mouth.

"I remember that only you, Lin Qiming and professor-level personnel in the institute have the right to view... By the way, how many surviving professors are in the institute now?"

"There are six in total, except for Dr. Norrison on the plane, five other professors have been controlled by us," Schroeder said. "But I'm basically sure that the news was not leaked from them."

"But besides us, there is another group of people who know this news..." Schroeder said again.

"Don't... don't stare at me!" Ye Yan suddenly panicked and waved his hands repeatedly, "Although the transport plane was provided by our Ye family, I can guarantee that it is the staff of the port and airport or the crew members, both at the port and airport.

They didn't know the content of the mission and the identity of the passengers... They only knew that they wanted to escort a batch of expensive equipment to Yaguna Kotol, and all other information was kept confidential!"

"Are you sure?" Schroeder's tone was very suspicious.

"I'm sure! The only person who knows about this is the person who is responsible for contacting. That person is my second uncle. He cannot be a member of the heretic sect." Ye Yan said confidently.

Ye Yan's second uncle Ke Lan has also had several contacts. This person has a very high status and prestige within the Ye family, and is almost on par with the head of the family. If even a character like him is a chess piece placed by a heretic sect, then

The entire Ye family is probably inseparable from the heretic sect.

If it is placed in a general TV series or novel, Ye Yan's second uncle may choose to "cooperate" with external forces such as the heretic sect because he is unwilling to be just a second-in-command, but the problem is that the inheritance system of the Ye family is adopted.

The one who chooses the best among all the children of the direct line to serve as the next head of the family. The best among the young people of the Ye family generation is not Ye Yan, but Ye Yan's cousin - his second uncle

son.

Ye Yan has repeatedly stated in public that he has no interest in the head of the family. He prefers to be a playboy instead of reviewing the files that cannot be completed in the office all day long. His cousin becomes the Ye family.

It is almost a foregone conclusion that the next head of the family is.

From this point of view, Ye Yan's second uncle had no motive or reason to betray him at all.

"By the way, Ye Yan, can you contact this Hercules transport plane?" Ke Lan asked.

"I can't contact you, the transport plane has unilaterally cut off the communication." Ye Yan sighed, "I have sent you the list of crew members... To be honest, I don't know who is a traitor."

"The rescue operation is very difficult without the plane landing... We must plan the best and worst," Schroeder said.

"What is the worst plan?" The fat meat on Ye Yan's face beat violently.

"Shot down the plane - even if you kill these experts, it's better than letting them fall into the hands of the heretics." Schroeder's expression was very decisive.

"That's a last resort. Before that, let's find a way to organize a rescue operation." Ke Lan said.

"Ke Lan, you can just say what you think. As long as our Ye family can do it, we will cooperate with you with all our strength." Ye Yan immediately agreed.

He doesn't want things to really develop to that point - the loss of a Hercules transport plane is probably not even a drizzle for the Ye family, but the lives of those people on the plane... that responsibility is not something that the Ye family can do.

It's affordable... Although the Ye family consortium is an unshakable behemoth to ordinary people, only they themselves know that if the Immortal Crew members want to clean up the Ye family, the Ye family will not even have the chance to resist.

There will be.

"I just looked through the list of crew members you sent. I always feel that...even if the heretic sect wants to install chess pieces in the Ye family consortium, it is impossible for the entire crew members to be theirs... What's more, this operation

It was a temporary decision. The Hercules transport plane was also a coincidence that it was free. If the entire unit hit a situation where it was an insider, I think I could go and buy a lottery ticket."

Ke Lan paused and continued, "No, it's not so outrageous even if you buy a lottery, after all, this is equivalent to a total of 5 million lottery tickets in the prize pool and you won 100 million - it's simply impossible."

"Airport." Schroeder suddenly said, "Contact the airport console and let them show off the entire airport's surveillance equipment, and do not let go of any corner. In addition, redirect the list of all the people entering and leaving Yong'an Port today."

"Okay, OK!" Ye Yan responded.

"Chief Schroeder, do you suspect someone sneaked into the airport and got into a plane?" The deputy of the Security Bureau who had not spoken much said.

"It's not that someone got on the plane, I think... the crew got dropped." Schroeder said word by word.

"Dropping the bag? These crew members should be very familiar with each other, right? If a stranger sneaks in, he should be recognized as soon as possible, right?" said the representative of the Safety Bureau.

"What if the entire crew...is all gone? There are so many planes and airships entering and leaving the airport every day, and the ground crew at the airport may not know each crew member." Schroederdao.

Before the person from the Security Bureau said anything, Ye Yan, who had disappeared briefly in the picture for a few minutes, hurriedly ran back and said, "The inspection results are out! Six cameras outside Yong'an Port have been artificially damaged, the monitoring room

The computer inside was also found to have been implanted with a Trojan. In addition, the cameras in the bathroom and locker room on the first floor of the airport were all destroyed, and the security equipment of Gate No. 4 and Gate No. 5 had inexplicable malfunctions!"

“Where is the list of people entering and leaving?”

"I haven't sorted out yet. I just sent supplies by Yaguna Kotor today. The flow of people entering and leaving Yong'an Port is not 10,000 and 8,000... Wait a minute! Just now, news came from the airport that three people were missing.

Not found yet!"

"Three people? Which three people?" Ke Lan asked afterwards.

"Two are airport security guards, and one is a 'water supply and drainage engineer' invited by the airport..."

"Shui Supply and Drainage Engineer? Why, the drainage pipes at the airport are also malfunctioning?" Schroeder asked. "Are these being penetrated into the airport from the piping system?"

"It was the self-disciplined cleaning robot in the pipeline that was stuck on the track, and then the maintenance robot seemed to be stuck, so it had to start the manual troubleshooting program... But after this engineer named Jimmy Garrigan entered the airport

It disappeared soon and no one knew where he had gone."

"Is this Jimmy Garrigan a heretic sect..." Before the Security Bureau finished speaking, Ye Yan interrupted him: "When Jimmy Garrigan entered the airport, the transport plane had already flown away from Yong'an

It's Hong Kong..."

"This Jimmy is here to repair the underground drainage pipes, right?" Ke Lan asked suddenly.

"Yes." Ye Yan nodded.

"Where is the entrance to the underground drainage pipe?" Ke Lan asked again.

"There should be several entrances...but the commonly used entrances are either in the water room or in the bathroom..."

"Did you just say that the cameras in the bathroom and locker room were destroyed? Hurry up, now organize a team of people to go to the bathroom where the camera was damaged, and enter the underground pipe from the entrance there! There must be something underneath!"

"I'll have someone go and do it right away!"

"Where is this transport plane now?" Ke Lan looked at the representative of the Security Bureau again and asked.

"It is 1,100 kilometers north of the ark and is still flying north. The First Fleet has sent two fighter aircraft formations to intercept... However, the other party ignored the warning issued by the fighter aircraft at all." The representative of the Security Bureau had a bitter face.

He said, "But we can't fire at them without the permission from above..."

The above permission naturally refers to the Immortal Crew Association - before the Immortal Crew Association nods, neither the Crisis Response Department nor the Security Bureau have the right to shoot down this Hercules transport aircraft.

"Is there no other way to stop the plane?"

"Someone proposed a plan to destroy the aircraft engine and then use a flying mecha to force the transport aircraft... but we cannot guarantee whether the hijackers will use extreme behavior after the aircraft loses power... For example, killing hostages...

”

"But this is a solution," Schroeder continued. "If Lin Qiming is not dead yet, with the help of the chaos we created outside, he should have a way to solve the problem from the inside of the plane."

"The premise is that the strength of the hijackers is below the operators of the crisis management department... But from the clues currently available, most of the hijackers are members of the heretic sect, so there is definitely a container of parasitic and erosion seeds.

...It is even impossible to rule out that there is a black bishop." Ke Lan pondered.

"A black-clothed bishop is enough to destroy the entire team of Deputy Section Chief Lin." The representative of the Security Bureau also said with a serious look on his face, "We cannot pin our hopes on a person who is still undecided."

"Chief Schroeder, have you contacted Lin Qiming?" Ke Lan continued to ask.

Schroeder shook his head: "The transporter has turned on the shielding device, and the personal communication equipment they carry has expired."

At this moment, Ye Yan returned to the screen again. Looking at his breathless look, he was obviously running back all the way.

"Ke-Ke Ke Ke Ke Lan! You... your guess is correct! I, I asked someone to check the underground drainage system - the corpse! There are corpses below! We found a large number of corpses in management!

”

"Whose body?" Ke Lan, Schroeder and the representative of the Security Bureau immediately tightened and asked.

"The engineer named Jimmy and the body of the crew... the crew of the entire B-shift were killed!" Ye Yan shouted in anger.

"In other words... the entire crew on the transport plane is disguised by the hijackers." Schroeder said in a deep voice, "Even if there is no black bishop among them, with the combat power of Lin Qiming and his team, it may not be allowed.

Optimistic... What's more, without their knowledge, the hijackers have the absolute initiative..."

"What should I do? Apply to... above..." The representative of the Security Bureau did not say anything halfway through his speech. The "application" he mentioned was naturally the action permit applied for - and the action that required the Immortal Crew Association to approve it.

, it must be the kind of action that will cause large-scale casualties.

It is very likely that in the end they will get the wreckage of an airplane and dozens of incomplete corpses.

"Let me do this, I'll carry out the rescue operation." Ke Lan said, and suddenly stood up.

"You go...how do you go?" Schroeder was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Of course it's a high-speed fighter on the Fleet Zero, and I can't fly." Ke Lan smiled and said, "At the speed of the fighter, you should be able to catch up with transport planes before they fly over the White Ridge Mountains."

"What then? What are you going to do?" The representative of the Security Bureau also looked at Ke Lan with confusion. "The fighter formation of Fleet No. 1 follows the transport planes, but there is no way to deal with them."

"Of course you jump onto the plane and kill the hijackers inside."

“??”
