After boarding the ship, Shimazu Hiromichi distributed body armor to everyone, "The situation on Tanegashima is very delicate now. Although we don't know who cut off Tanegashima's connection with the outside world, we can be sure that this person is not good, and
The strength cannot be underestimated, so for the sake of safety, everyone still wears body armor, which is equipped with a pistol and two flash bombs, as well as a flare gun with three flares of different colors. Red represents danger and the need for assistance.
Black is very dangerous, and others should stay away as soon as possible. As for purple, it means there is an important discovery; if it is just a general situation, we will use the walkie-talkie to contact us, if the walkie-talkie can still be used on Tanegashima."
Liu Xing took over a body armor and couldn't help but said: "Until now, no one has been able to escape on Tanegashima? I remember there should be a lot of people on Tanegashima, right?"
Tanegashima Teruichi sighed, stood up and said: "If I remember correctly, the permanent population of Tanegashima should be around 50,000 people. Because of the recent activities at the space center, there are thousands of people on Tanegashima every day.
Ten thousand tourists have landed on the island, so it is conservatively estimated that there are at least 60,000 people on Tanegashima today, as well as hundreds of ships of various types... But judging from the current situation, no one has been able to leave Tanegashima, but those ships
There seems to be no problem and they are still parked where they should be."
"And no one went to the shelter we visited before. Logically speaking, the senior members of the Tanegashima family are qualified to open the shelter. After all, the daily maintenance of the shelter is the responsibility of the Tanegashima family, so I am very worried now.
One thing is that something happened to the Tanegashima family, no, it should have happened to everyone on Tanegashima." Shimazu Hiromichi said with a solemn expression.
Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "If this is the case, then the forces attacking Tanegashima will not be easy. After all, they can control tens of thousands of people on Tanegashima in a short period of time and make them issue a series of
There was no chance to get the news. It can be seen that these guys were not only prepared, but also wanted to make a big news from the beginning. But the question is, why did this force attack Tanegashima? Is it for the space center?
"
"This is not realistic. Although the Tanegashima Space Center is pretty good internationally, it is only for ordinary people. To us, this space center has no value, except for some aerospace materials that may be worth some money, but
How could a force that has the ability to control the entire Tanegashima be short of such a small amount of money?" Tanegashima Teru shook his head and said.
He does not mean that.
When Liu Xing heard the word "aerospace materials", he realized that it was really possible that Shirakawa City brought the Mother of Stars to attack Tanegashima, with the purpose of collecting some usable aerospace materials from the Tanegashima Space Center.
Upgrading the ships controlled by the Star Mother. After all, aerospace materials are expensive. Not only are they resistant to high temperatures and corrosion, but they are also lighter and stronger. Naturally, they are perfect for transforming ships.
In a sense, the Mother of Stars is a Gundam pilot, so having a good ship will significantly improve its combat effectiveness. Therefore, Shirakawa City does have reason to attack Tanegashima Space Center.
Of course, in addition to the Tanegashima Space Center, the Tanegashima family should also be one of Shirakawa City's targets. In addition to the musket and artillery technology mentioned before, Liu Xing estimates that Shirakawa City also plans to "recruit" a group of Tanegashima family craftsmen and sailors.
If this is the case, then the player formation on Tanegashima should have a copy of Shirakawa City.
"Gentlemen, get ready to land on the island."
At this time, a sailor came over and said seriously: "There are still many official ships cruising around Tanegashima, and we private ships are not allowed to dock at will, so we will send you gentlemen to the island later."
After that, we will stay at sea. If you gentlemen want to leave Tanegashima, just launch the signal flare and we will come to respond within five minutes."
five minutes!
Liu Xing and others looked at each other, because these five minutes are not a short time, especially when facing the enemy's pursuit.
"That's okay, but remember to ask your captain to always pay attention to the situation on Tanegashima."
After Shimazu Hiromichi sent away the sailors, he said to Liu Xing and others: "In addition to us, the head of the family has also hired a professional security team. They have fought with ghouls in Central Asia, so their ability
It’s pretty good, so I hope everyone won’t act alone at will. Unless it’s necessary, we shouldn’t act separately.”
At this moment, a tall white man with an AK came over. When he saw Li Hanxing and Li Hanxing, a smile appeared on his originally serious face.
"Andre?!"
Li Hanxing was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "I didn't expect we could meet here!"
Obviously, this Andre should be an old teammate of Li Hanxing.
"Andre used to be in the same mercenary group as us, but later he chose to leave because of some things and formed a security company with a few old friends."
Li Hanxing patted Andre on the shoulder and said: "You may not think that Andre is a tall guy, but he is quite afraid of the dark, so I used to take over this guy's night shift, and of course he did some of the usual dirty work.
I also leave all the hard work to him."
Andre shook his head and said with a smile: "No way, who told me to hide and seek when I was a child, but I was accidentally locked in an abandoned wooden house by my friends, and was not released by my parents until the next day.
I was rescued, but I have been afraid of the dark since then, but in other respects you can trust me and my team, because we are professionals and have fought off a group of ghouls with claws and teeth."
There are eight people in Andre's team, all of whom are former "colleagues" of him and Li Hanxing. All of them are good with guns, and some are proficient in blasting and tracking, so this professional team looks better than Liu Xing's.
It's much better to wait for others.
And because Andre and others prepared some spare weapons and equipment, Li Hanxing and Ding Kun both upgraded themselves and temporarily joined Andre's team.
As a result, the Shimadzu family's investigation team was divided into two parts, one was the investigation team led by Shimazu Hiromichi, and the other was the security team where Andre belonged.
The planned landing site for the investigation team was a beach on Tanegashima. However, because this beach has a lot of gravel and broken shells, no one usually comes here to play, so it became a secret of the Shimadzu family.
At the port, the seemingly abandoned Sea House on the beach is a small secret base, which contains a lot of food, pistols and other weapons. Of course, the most important thing is that there is a secret compartment in this Sea House dedicated to transmitting information.
"If something urgent happens on Tanegashima, someone will put the note in this secret box to ensure that an investigation team like ours will not have a black eye after going to the island."
As Shimazu Hiromichi spoke, he opened the secret compartment, and it turned out that there was actually a small note inside.
Shimazu Hiromichi immediately picked up the small note, and then said: "Sure enough, something happened. A fleet arrived at Tanegashima last night, and several members of Tanegashima went to greet the people on the ship.
However, because the person who wrote this note was too far away, he did not see clearly who was greeting them. As a result, these outsiders soon began to attack various villages on Tanegashima, and even occupied the space center.
"
"Cooperation between inside and outside?" Tanegashima Teruichi said: "It seems that a certain faction of the Tanegashima family has colluded with outsiders and wants to use external forces to gain the position of head of the Tanegashima family, but these outsiders don't seem to be sincere.
They came to help, so they took control of the entire Tanegashima."
As soon as Tanegashima Teruichi said this, Liu Xing noticed that Shimazu Hiromichi's expression was a little unnatural. After all, Tanegashima Teruichi's words could be applied to Shimazu Hiromichi, because Shimazu Hiromichi had wanted to do it before.
He wanted to become the head of the Shimazu family through external force, but he almost attracted a wolf into the house.
At this time, Tanegashima Teruichi also realized that his words were somewhat referring to Sang and Huai, so he could only smile awkwardly without saying anything.
But having said that, the content on this note can be regarded as validating Liu Xing's guess. Now Liu Xing is more certain that Baihe City came to Tanegashima.
Now it's a bit troublesome.
Although under normal circumstances, the Mother of Stars will not leave the ship she controls, after all, its body is still too fragile, and any ordinary person can handle it to death, so Liu Xing felt that he and his party
There is no need to worry about fighting the Star Mother.
But now ships from all forces have circled Tanegashima several times, and they have not found the ship controlled by the Mother of Stars. This means that the ship is either being transformed as Liu Xing thought, or
Just wandering somewhere on the sea.
If it's the former, it's easy to talk about and deal with, but if it's the latter, it's going to be troublesome. After all, the Mother of Stars on the sea is not that easy to deal with.
"Then where are we going now? Should we go directly to Tanegashima Space Center or go to Tanegashima Town?"
The Tanegashima Town mentioned by Liu Xing is, to put it bluntly, the very large estate of the Tanegashima family. Some peripheral areas are usually open to tourists, while the inner core area is closed to outsiders in the name of decoration, construction, etc.
"It's not easy to go here. The fact that these outsiders can control the entire Tanegashima Island means that there are quite a few of them. Therefore, if our investigation team goes to Tanegashima Town or the Space Center, it is very likely to be suicidal.
road."
After a moment of silence, Shimazu Hiromichi continued: "Let's go to the pier of Tanegashima first and take a look. It is the distribution center for tourists visiting the island, so we should be able to find something there; and those cruising boats
No one was found moving on the dock, which means there are unlikely to be too many enemies near the dock."
As a result, Liu Xing and others headed towards the pier of Tanegashima after carrying some chocolates and other foods that were convenient for replenishing energy.
But on the way to the pier, Ding Kun suddenly said: "Wait a minute, don't you think Tanegashima is a little too quiet? If there is nothing wrong with my hearing, we haven't heard any animal noises since we landed on the island.
Sounds like birds chirping and insects chirping?”
After hearing what Ding Kun said, Liu Xing realized that he had indeed not heard the chirping of insects and birds since he landed on Tanegashima.
"Yes, except for the places where we humans live and move, Tanegashima has basically not been developed in other areas, so there are quite a lot of animals on Tanegashima. If you don't close the windows in the summer, all kinds of
The noise animals make can keep you awake."
Tanegashima Teruichi walked to the roadside, rummaged in the grass for a few times, then shook his head and said: "Sure enough, there is not even a single insect. You know, you can find all kinds of insects just by casually browsing on these roadsides.
Insects, so after those outsiders landed on Tanegashima, they even captured all the animals on Tanegashima?"
Liu Xing touched the back of his head and looked confused about the situation, because in Liu Xing's opinion, there was no need for Baihe City to do this, or no matter who the outsiders were, they would most likely attack these animals...unless
Among these outsiders are specimen enthusiasts.
It seems that things are not as simple as Liu Xing imagined.
Because the beach where Liu Xing and others landed was not too far from the pier, Liu Xing and others did not walk long before arriving at a hill next to the pier. From here they could see the whole view of the pier, so naturally there is a Shimadzu here.
Monitoring points set up at home.
This surveillance point looks like a big rock, but in fact it is a small fortress that can only accommodate two people, without even a chair.
"It stands to reason that there will be people on duty at this monitoring point 24 hours a day to ensure that there are no suspicious persons among the people who board Tanegashima from the pier. However, there has been nothing wrong with Tanegashima during the Komu War, or for hundreds of years.
So this monitoring point is basically in a semi-abandoned state, with people only occasionally on duty."
Liu Xing could tell from Shimazu Nakano's tone that he actually had no information about this monitoring point that would allow him to obtain effective intelligence.
But surprises happen when you have no expectations.
There were two people in this intelligence point, but they had both become corpses. However, from these two corpses and the situation in the monitoring point, Liu Xing and others quickly analyzed the cause of their death - fear!
"These two people didn't know what they saw, but they were all frightened out of their minds, so these two madmen who couldn't open the door started fighting in such a small space, and then after a fierce fight, they died
