In the captain's room of the Osiris, Lin Ao, Li Youde, Anton and Dr. Hohenheim sat in a circle on the sofa. Li Youde personally handed Dr. Hohenheim hot tea, and Hohenheim took it respectfully.
Anton asked straight to the point: "Doctor, what do you mean when you said you defected from the Moore Chamber of Commerce?"
Anton asked seriously. After all, Hohenheim was talking about defecting and not resigning. If the Maul Chamber of Commerce were to hunt him down, then the Osiris would be in trouble if it chose to protect him.
Hohenheim took a sip of tea and said: "To tell you the truth, I collected information about the Moore Chamber of Commerce for the Wan Chamber of Commerce a long time ago. You can say that I am a commercial spy."
Lin Ao asked: "Doctor, are you short of money?"
Hohenheim shook his head: "No, I'm not short of money. My motivation for doing this is that I doubt the purpose of the Moore Chamber of Commerce in developing humanoid weapons. I started my own investigation before the Wan Chamber of Commerce wooed me."
Li Youde said: "In my opinion, this is nothing. Businessmen are all profit-seeking. Selling arms is the most profitable during a war."
Hohenheim put the tea cup on the coffee table, looked at everyone, and asked: "Do you know that the Moore Chamber of Commerce completed the Ten Swords No. 1 machine before HER developed the Eagle Type?"
"What??"
"When I first built the Ten Swords Unit 1, I didn't think much about it. I thought it was just the Moore Chamber of Commerce who wanted to restore the humanoid weapons recorded in the legendary era to show off their technical capabilities. But then the appearance of the Ying Yang type made me suspicious. You know Photon technology, the core technology of humanoid weapons, is something that even I find a headache, but HER has made a breakthrough in a very short period of time. Perhaps the Moore Chamber of Commerce secretly sold the key technology to HER. You must know that HER vigorously touts and even triggers Dr. Keanu, who won the Battle of Carthage, was unknown in the scientific community before developing the Eagle Type."
"This... is indeed strange, but it is also possible that someone within the Moore Chamber of Commerce leaked the secret for the sake of profit, and it was not authorized by the top management. Moreover, we cannot deny the possibility that HER has been secretly researching it for a long time. After all, Manfred controlled the new country before the founding of the country. Rome has been in power for more than ten years."
Dr. Hohenheim nodded: "It is also possible, but various things happened later that deepened my suspicion of the Moore Chamber of Commerce. Sometimes I completely don't understand what they are going to do. You all know the pilot of the Ten Swords Machine Members must be no more than 20 years old, do you know why?”
"I don't know. You are a developer, so you should know, right?"
"Haha, I don't know either. The pilots recruited during the testing phase of Shijian Unit 1 must not be over 20 years old. I didn't notice this at first, but during subsequent investigations, I found out that the pilots who participated in the test were All three pilots of the Ten Swords Unit 1 test died inexplicably..."
When Hohenheim said this, everyone was silent. He looked at Lin Ao and saw that Lin Ao's hair stood up.
"Doctor, you have never said this before. I always thought the danger you were talking about was nuclear radiation!"
"I couldn't say it at the time. These were the secrets of the Moore Chamber of Commerce. I hadn't defected yet, and I wasn't very familiar with you, so naturally I couldn't say anything nonsense."
Li Youde asked: "Is there any evidence for what you said?"
Hohenheim nodded, clicked a few times on his personal terminal, and projected some photos, including the information and death messages of the three Ten Swords Unit 1 test pilots he mentioned, and the factory settings of the Ten Swords Unit 1. There was a commemorative group photo of all developers, including Dr. Hohenheim, and the date marked on the group photo was indeed earlier than the date of the start of development of the Eagle Type announced by HER.
After a minute, Hohenheim turned off the projection and said: "The rest of the evidence... is gone. That's why I have to investigate, but it is too dangerous for me to do this alone, and now I have to escape."
Anton asked: "So you had a purpose in checking Lin Ao's body so frequently on the ship?"
"Well, I didn't have a chance to get close to the Ten Swords pilots at the Moore Chamber of Commerce, so on the Osiris I wanted to observe Lin Ao closely from various aspects, including physiological data, and speculate on the purpose of the Moore Chamber of Commerce. I did find some Weird place, but too little data…”
"What did you find?" Li Youde asked.
Hohenheim looked at Lin Ao, and Lin Ao looked at Anton. When Anton nodded, he took a deep breath and began to explain his abilities to Li Youde. Li Youde was dumbfounded after hearing this. Lin Ao and Anton thought he would find this ridiculous and unacceptable, but after thinking for a moment, Li Youde accepted the idea that Lin Ao had superpowers and said with certainty: "No wonder Lin Ao has super powers." My driving skills are getting better and better, and having super powers seems to explain..."
Lin Ao said uneasily at this time: "Although I have always thought that the doctor's suspicion of the More Chamber of Commerce was due to too many conspiracy theories, I had a conversation with Thomas More before, and he looked forward to me inexplicably, and mentioned It seems that he knows something..."
Speaking of this, Dr. Hohenheim's eyes flashed, as if he suddenly thought of something. He asked Li Youde: "Captain Li Youde, are there three Ten Swords pilots on the Osiris? Can you provide me with some of their genetics?" Bioinformatics?"
"This...what you are talking about is not on the ship."
"I can collect it myself. Just lend me a medical room. I have an idea that I want to test."
"Hmm... ok. But I will allow you to stay on the ship temporarily because of your previous friendship with Mr. Shepard and the others. If the Moore Chamber of Commerce comes looking for you, I'm afraid I won't be able to guarantee your safety."
"I understand. I will leave when the time is right. Thank you! By the way... Lin Ao, it is estimated that the Moore Chamber of Commerce will send another piece of equipment to Ten Swords Unit 2 soon."
"Huh? Why do I remember someone saying that Fudo Myooh has no new equipment?"
"That was before. We thought that Unit 2 was going to be given to HER, so we terminated the plan to improve Unit 2. However, the senior management of the Moore Chamber of Commerce felt that Unit 2 still has value in your hands for continued development and observation, so My understanding is that this may be the last piece of equipment for Unit 2. If the equipment is completed, the code name of Unit 2 will become the name we originally gave it: Chi You."
"Chiyou..."
At this moment, Li Youde's personal terminal suddenly rang, and Li Youde turned his back and answered the phone.
"Jessica, what's wrong? Are the people from the Wan Chamber of Commerce leaving?"
"No, we received a message from HER, written by the Red Knight. He requested a life-or-death duel with Lin Ao on the wreckage of a space station!"
"this…"
Li Youde turned to look at Lin Ao, and Anton said to Lin Ao: "We don't have to agree."
Lin Ao shook his head firmly and said, "No, I have to go. Not only do I want to end things with the Red Knight, I also have some things to ask him about Elizabeth's death! Captain, I beg you to allow me to accept it!"
