267. Return to the museum
Cao Xiang said goodbye to Pan Peien and walked out of the military and political building. It seems that he accepted Pan Peien's comfort, regained his strength, and planned to return to the first regiment of the Chinese Space Force.
When he left, the gravitational-wave telecommunication channel established by Kim Jong-tae with the help of electronic interstellar spies and the No. 3 space station dissipated, and the connection between the Military Commission and Qu Zhaohang was interrupted.
Mr. Pan urged Kim Jong-tae and scientists from C&T to determine the new coordinates of the space station as quickly as possible so that troops could be sent there. As for the purpose of their trip to occupy or assist Ark 3 in entering the mutant space passage, Pan Peien himself could not say. At this moment, he was in a complicated mood, and the only clear idea was that the Light Continent could not perish, and human society must continue to prosper.
Cao Fang walked alone on the empty street. Because he came with his wife, he didn't bring any retinue.
Threatened by the intruder of electronic particles, everyone on the current Light Continent is in danger, and no one dares to risk running out, for fear that the protective suit will be damaged due to the failure of solid-state light and die in the cold of absolute zero.
The light rail capsule tram was completely suspended two hours ago, and if the track laid by the light breaks, there will be a major accident.
In fact, if he really wants to go back to China, Cao Fang does not have to leave the military and political building at all, and can directly take the optical flow shuttle at the small airport on the third floor, and the shuttle is still operating normally.
But in fact, he didn't plan to return to China at all, but followed the route in his memory until he walked to the Military Museum of the Space Force, the place where he accompanied Shen Yun a few days ago.
Because it belongs to a military unit, although the power supply of the museum is unstable, it has not been interrupted, but the staff have gone home to hide, and now only the curator Mr. Bill is left in a building of Nuo University.
Bill was also a member of the Space Force, but after retiring, he volunteered to take care of this museum that recorded the military development history of the Light Continent, hoping to leave the last moments of his life here.
For so many years, except for the prescribed closing time from 12 p.m. to 6 a.m. the next morning, the museum has never closed its doors or charged admission fees, but has allowed the public to enter. But since the crisis and staff have fled their jobs, Bill has had to lock the doors from the inside out, in case the museum is damaged in the event of a bigger riot.
Standing at the door, Cao Fang pushed the closed gray iron door hard, and found that it was impossible to open it from the outside, so he found the light-controlled doorbell and hurriedly pressed it a few times.
"Dear visitors, the museum is currently closed, please visit after 6 a.m., thank you for your understanding and cooperation."
The AI intelligence politely refused to open the door for him, albeit with an inopportune closing clichΓ©.
Cao Fang's face sank, and he entered his officer number on the small electronic screen and handed in the detailed identity information. This time, he didn't wait two minutes before the sound of the iron bolt pulling came from inside, and it seemed that someone had come to greet him in person.
The door opened a crack, and Bill's crumpled old face appeared in front of him. Seeing Cao Fang, he was naturally surprised, but he was still polite, and asked with a smile: "It turned out to be Head Cao, haven't you been here?" Gone and returned, did you leave something behind? β
"Dropped something?" Cao Fang's mind flashed, and he replied: "Yes, I did leave an important item inside, and I must go in and retrieve it in person." β
"This," Bill was a little embarrassed, "Now in this extraordinary period, the Military Commission has joined forces with the U.S. Space Force to implement martial law throughout the city, if you can enter casually in normal times, you can ...... today"
Cao Fang interrupted him unceremoniously: "Curator Bill, what I lost is very important, it is related to whether or not I can defeat the invading enemy, so you won't let me in?" β
"Hehe~Hehehe~"
Bill didn't get angry at Cao Fang's imperiousness, but laughed with a shake on his crooked back, "Captain Cao, I'm afraid you're really in the wrong place, right?" I'm here as a place to store memories, some of which are all from the past. And the alien invasion belongs to the future war, and unfortunately the future has come early. Are you planning to win this battle with your memory? β
"Defeat the future with the past......" Cao Fang's heart was full of bitterness, and this sentence made his eyes moist even more. But his face did not change, and he still said in a cold tone: "As long as you let me in, I am sure to save the earth with memory." As one of the highest military commanders of the Space Force, I have the right to enter any military forbidden territory, let alone you, in accordance with wartime military needs. Curator Bill, please give way. β
"I won't let it ...... again Ah......h
Before the word "how" could be spoken, Bill exclaimed, and his whole body froze. He slowly lowered his head and saw an Ington laser pistol, pressed against his heart.
At this moment, Bill was really frightened, and quickly raised his two hands, blinking pitifully with his deep-set old eyes and saying no more.
Cao Fang held him back with a gun, and when he crossed the threshold, he ordered him to close the door with voice control, and then walked inside.
After walking past a few exhibition rooms, seeing that the largest, and usually not open to the outside world, was in front of him, Bill stood still and refused to go any further.
"Commander Cao, Old Bill is also a soldier who has served as a soldier, although he has not made achievements like you, and he is not as afraid of death as you think. Please tell me what you left here. I think I should know by now. β
Cao Fang did not object to Bill's request, and only said one sentence: "The BL17 Alpha fighter that placed Qu Zhaodi's body." β
"What? You...... You hit the idea of that fighter? What exactly do you want to do? β
Knowing Cao Fang's intentions, Bill turned around sharply regardless of his life, glaring at him like an angry old wolf.
"Bill, do you think I'm willing to take that fighter away? Do you think I'd like that fighter to carry the souls of those two people at the same time? I can't help myself, because all this is what she wants me to do, and if she can talk to me, she won't say that she is reluctant to leave me, she will only ask me to help her bring that person over! β
"Which she? And who to take where? Bill couldn't figure out the situation at all, and was a little stupid by Cao Fang's tongue twister.
But just when he was trying to figure it out, there was a sudden pain in his head, and he lost consciousness. It turned out that Cao Fang took advantage of this moment and knocked him unconscious with a shot.
Drag Old Bill aside and put it away, and when he woke up, Cao Fang continued to walk inside. He didn't hurt anyone, and he would only give Bill a headache for two days at most. Rather than leaving him awake all the time to get in the way, Cao Fang had to make this decision.
The law and order on the Continent of Light is good, and the Military Museum is not a confidential place, so only a basic security system is set up, and it is a piece of cake for Cao Fang to crack it. Although he didn't have the password to open the light glass, he found the right point to break through and punched down, and the huge glass on all sides of the BL17 fighter shattered into light chips.
