Chapter 3080: Aftermath of the Theft

Earth, three days later.

Northwest Ethiopia. "Combined Barracks" base.

Three days ago, a group of supplies and 31 soldiers were missing from this base.

"More things are better than less things" is a criterion that is applicable to any regime in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. Even the United States, which claims to be the freest, most democratic, most sexually happy, most caring, and most so on earth, is no exception.

If a small amount of material is lost, it can also be prevaricated by attrition. But this time, the warehouse was emptied, and the robbers were like locusts crossing the border, and the whole storehouse area was as clean as washed with water. Except for the room, doors and windows, everything was gone, not even a wrench. If it weren't for the traces of items on the ground, it would almost have been seen as a storeroom that had never been used.

Colonel James, who was the commander of the camp at the time, almost fainted on the spot after seeing this scene.

That's not all, though, and it didn't take long. Mr. Colonel got the bad news again, the central control room was also emptied, and all electrical appliances or things that looked like electrical appliances were gone. Even the three monitors disappeared together.

Of course, the three guards in the treasury were missing. and the three service sergeants who came to count the supplies last night, and the Ethiopian officers and soldiers from two squads who came together to assist in the inventory of the supplies.

That is to say, that night, not only were the warehouses and the central control room ransacked, not to mention, but there was also a platoon of officers and soldiers missing.

Colonel James immediately dispatched all personnel and conducted a major search inside and outside the base, but there were no other valuable clues other than some bloodstains, footprints left by robbers, and other trivial things.

Well, the only thing of even less value is a few leaflets in Arabic that read "Allah is great!", "Kill the American devil!" and so on. In addition, in a forest outside the camp, several half-burned Bibles and crosses were found.

But with these things alone, it is obvious that the culprit cannot be found.

Colonel James knew very well that once this matter was stabbed, he would definitely not be able to sit in the position of base commander. But such a big incident can't be covered up no matter what. So that evening, the unthinkable Mr. Colonel had to report the matter.

........................................................................

Poor Mr. Colonel, is now under scrutiny. The examiners of him were the officials of the Pentagon's special investigation team, who had just arrived today.

“...... The equipment of two entire battalions, and a month's supply for a division, were all gone! Oh no, you're a lieutenant colonel now. Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, you actually told me that it was probably Al-Qaeda's doing. Oh, you want to say, all that mess you found?"

“...... No, these things cannot prove that this incident was made by the base. While they have this motive, there is no evidence that Al-Qaida has the ability to do so. Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I must remind you that what disappeared that day was more than 200 armored vehicles and thousands of tons of weapons and supplies. ”

It was a brigadier general who spoke, and the general said sarcastically: "...... If you think it's al-Qaeda, then tell me how they managed to get these things out of the base without a word? Is it up to their Allah? Or rather, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, are you cooperating with them?"

The poor lieutenant colonel's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "No, no, no." How could I possibly cooperate with them...... "I just got a level of masturbation, it's bad enough, if I am suspected of communicating with al-Qaeda, the future of this life is over."

"Alright, you go down first, we will continue to investigate this matter......" Mr. Brigadier General waved his hand and asked the guards to take the hapless guy out.

In fact, the general was also very puzzled by this matter, this disappearance was too strange. It is almost inconceivable to move so many things out of the base overnight without alerting the base guards. All the surveillance equipment is gone, so it is impossible to know what happened in the warehouse at that time.

To be honest, even now, the reason why the general is most suspicious is that the people in the base are guarding and stealing. After all, this kind of thing is the most common in this kind of overseas bases, especially some small bases that are not very valued. There is no way to eradicate it, so as long as it doesn't go too far, the Pentagon usually turns a blind eye.

It's okay to do some terrorist attacks with the al-Qaeda guys, but to do this kind of thing, unless they get zenith technology. You must know that there are more than 300 meters of national officers and soldiers in this base, as well as a regiment of local troops. These people are not puppets, how can they not find out at all?

What's more, on the road from the warehouse to the gate, as well as on the periphery of the base, there was no abnormally increased wheel traces. These guys can't use people to resist them, right? That has to be done by superhuman talents! If Al Qaeda wants to have this ability, the United States will not have to be confused.

After thinking about it, the general still felt that the guards were most likely to steal themselves. He even suspected that the incident had already happened, but it was only now reported. So as soon as he arrived, he used the authority of the special investigation team to demote the hapless base commander by one level, suspend his authority, and put him on the list of key suspects.

At this time, one of the captains of the investigation team came in and reported: "Your Excellency, General, there is a private who has important clues and wants to report directly to you directly......

As soon as the investigation team arrived at the base, in addition to examining the unlucky base commander, the other investigators also dispersed to the base and asked all the personnel about the situation at that time. This captain was one of them.

"Okay, let him come......" The brigadier general was in good spirits, and sometimes the clues were often in these little people.

The Shogun felt that this might be an important opportunity to crack this "large-scale case of self-theft from custody". Yes, the general has already defined this case as "self-theft".

..............................................................................

"Soldier, what do you say you have important clues? Don't worry, we'll protect the witnesses! The Pentagon will keep you safe...... Well, tell me what your name is......" the brigadier general asked in a very kind tone, and had a cup of coffee poured for the soldier.

"Yes, Your Excellency. My name is Thomas......" Thomas began to talk about the events of that night, holding his coffee cup: "...... That night, it was my turn to be on duty at the gate......"

"Oh...... On duty, very good...... Mr. Thomas, he continued, ...... "The brigadier raised his brows and felt that there was a play. This time, it is very likely that a group of bad guys who are "digging into the corners of capitalism" will be cracked, and maybe some big names will be involved in this matter.

How many bigwigs have fallen in the "Watergate scandal" of the last century, if there is also a "basegate" incident this time...... Well. The Shogun felt that if this was successfully completed, perhaps he would have another star on his shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Thomas's next narration gave the general a basin of ice water......

"What? You said it could have been a UFO?" Mr. General's head jumped, and he gritted his teeth, "Mr. Thomas, are you sure you're in a normal state of mind?"

Thomas was anxious, and he quickly explained: "It's really a UFO! I saw it twice, once when they went in, and once when they came out." That time was about the same time as you guessed the theft...... The UFO, about that big......" he gestured to a circle the size of a soup plate.

"Captain, this private's mental condition is very problematic, and he is no longer suitable for evidence collection, take him down to rest......" Mr. Brigadier General said coldly with a blushing face.

Thomas was immediately carried out by several thick-shouldered soldiers, and when he reached the door, he still cried out without giving up, "No, General...... I really saw a UFO~~~ I really saw a UFO~~~ General, you have to believe me...... It's UFO~O~O~"

..............................................................................

Sultan, base of the Holy Order.

"Hahahaha~~~~ UFO, I didn't expect that the space-time gate that was inadvertently discovered by someone would actually be regarded as a UFO, uh, it does seem to be a bit like it......" Su Ze and the others looked at the posts on the webpage and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

That post is a reprinted article from a newspaper in the United States, and the content is the disappearance incident a few days ago. The journalist believed that although official analysis said that al-Qaeda may have colluded with al-Qaeda insiders to commit the crime, the top suspects were the missing Ethiopian soldiers. But there is every indication that Al-Qaida does not have such capabilities.

The article pointed out that some soldiers interviewed indicated that there were sightings of the UFO that night, and the timing of its two appearances coincided with the time when the supplies and personnel went missing. Then this matter, it is likely that aliens did it. Later in the article, there are many mysterious disappearances in history......

But. The funniest thing is that several organizations jumped out and declared responsibility for the incident. Of course, it also includes Uncle Lalan's "al-Qaeda......

There is even a small organization with no name that openly declares that if the United States does not withdraw its troops from the Islamic world, such incidents will continue to occur, and they do not rule out the possibility of ransacking the White House...... Yunyun

There are many more follow-up effects. For example, because the Pentagon found the missing Ethiopian officers and soldiers to come out of the tank in order to have an explanation, but this incident caused dissatisfaction on the Ethiopian side, so there was a little rift in the relationship between the two sides.

As for the officers and men of the original base, they were all transferred to other places.
