Asimov slowly stood up from his seat, gave a federal military salute expressionlessly, and said in a cold voice: "Yes, Your Majesty the Deputy Head of State!"
It can be seen that the Chief of Staff does not want to take this hot potato. But the official level is overwhelming. When Harris was authorized by Bayerden, her status was equivalent to the head of the Fulo Federation when it came to handling the hijacking of the spacecraft. Asimov must follow the Constitution Follow Harris's orders.
Deputy Head of State Harris didn't care at all about Asimov's tone and attitude. She nodded with a smile and said, "That's good. I hope the Chief of Staff will resolve this crisis as soon as possible. I will definitely ask the Head of State for credit on your behalf!" He was sarcastic in his heart: "I asked you to always shirk your duties and not cooperate with my work. Now you and Yu Zhong have the greatest influence. Yu Zhong has expressed his attitude, but you want to sit on the sidelines. Now I will forcefully throw the decision-making power to you. , let’s see if you can still make this wishful thinking! Haha, now I finally understand why this old guy, Bayden, always misses the mark at critical moments. Power is to control people, not to do anything!”
"Thank you, Deputy Head of State!" Asimov looked at Harris sitting down with a tense face.
There was silence in the conference hall again. Asimov glanced at everyone indifferently and ordered coldly: "Order the federal garrison near the hijacked spacecraft in the Nevada system to each dispatch a class warship and immediately pursue the pursuit within their respective jurisdictions. Once the hijacked spacecraft is found and the target is found, destroy it directly without asking!"
Pablo Garcia, who was next to Asimov, immediately stood up and saluted, loudly shouting: "As ordered!" Then he issued orders to various federal military districts through encrypted communication channels.
When the officials saw that someone was taking the blame, they began to discuss how to release news to the outside world and how to deal with the aftermath. No one cared that tens of thousands of federal citizens would be killed by the cannon of their own army.
Yu Zhong lowered his head, his heart churning: "What is going on? Why did Asimov choose to destroy those spaceships without hesitation. Why do I feel that he is smiling? Is it my imagination?" He Thinking of this, I glanced at Asimov secretly, and found that Asimov still had a tense face, without a trace of smile at all.
Yu Zhong thought again: "Did Asimov deliberately go against me? I wanted to capture the hijackers, so he deliberately killed them all? This would also win the favor of Defense Minister Pablo Garcia. ? Huh, I definitely can’t let you get what you want!”
Yu Zhong was about to say something to stop him when a voice suddenly came from the door of the conference hall: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, your decision is too wise. All those robbers should be sent to hell. They are all scum from the Kabasi Empire. My The police department has obtained the evidence, and a heroic air marshal has confirmed the validity of that evidence." It turned out to be Police Minister Olof Bauer.
At this time, Ofra Ball looked triumphant. He was afraid that others would not know him. He sat back in his chair and eagerly projected the contents of the communicator into the air above the U-shaped conference table.
All the passport information of the 300 people involved in Operation Shadow appeared in front of federal agents, along with a holographic video taken in the dark. The content of the video was that three of the 300 people were using guns to kill the resisting tourists. One of them was fierce-looking and tall, and he was the Bao Xiong who had fought against Yi Chen.
Ofra Ball deliberately glanced at Yu Zhong, started talking, and explained the contents of the police department's investigation to everyone present, so that everyone could understand that the hijacking incident was a group of people from the Qabas Empire. This was done by the Chinese, and in conjunction with the previous statement by Defense Minister Pablo Garcia that the Kabasi Empire suddenly had 20,000 warships in the Tyrannosaurus Galaxy and other related information, the police department concluded that this hijacking was for the Kabasi Empire. To attack the sabotage activities carried out by the Fulo Federation, it is recommended to directly eliminate those enemy elements.
In fact, Yu Zhong had already concluded the conclusion of the police department based on the FBI report. He originally insisted on arresting the robbers because he wanted to verify another guess in his mind and provide support for a newly planned operation.
After hearing Ofra Ball's words, Yu Zhong could only sigh secretly. It involved the security of the entire Fulo Federation, and also involved the identity of the robbers who were all from the Panhua ethnic group, so he had to avoid suspicion and could no longer persist. These robbers need to be caught.
Not long after, there were many people on the Fulo Federation holographic star map.
Many blue light spots appeared, and they quickly approached the hijacked passenger spacecraft. Everyone who had been watching the holographic star map breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that the federal warship had taken action and the hijacking incident was over. Soon, tens of thousands of our own citizens on board 100 passenger spaceships will turn into cosmic dust. This matter will not cause any ripples in the hearts of these top federal officials. They are now preparing to arrange lies to deceive all living beings in the Federation. Woolen cloth!
When the first red dot representing the 100 hijacked passenger spacecraft disappears on the Fulo Federation holographic star map, it means that the federal warships have begun to attack.
With a tight face, Asimov still said coldly: "Okay, the following matters are all about the front-line battleships. The meeting is adjourned now! Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Moses."
Moses, the central optical brain who had not spoken much, nodded: "You're welcome, Chief of Staff!" After saying that, he disappeared.
Everyone knew that Asimov, the scapegoat, was in a bad mood. Although this matter will not be known to outsiders now. But when Asimov offends the head of state, or someone with a similar status to him, or prepares to run for the head of state after retiring, the matter of destroying the passenger spacecraft may be made public, which means Asimov has one more clue. Being held in the hands of a caring person. Everyone nodded to Asimov and left one after another.
After everyone left, Asimov rubbed his stiff cheeks and touched a ring on the ring finger of his left hand with his right hand. The ring shone with a faint cold light under the lights of the conference hall. At this time, an inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on Asimov's face. If those federal agents were still around, they would think Asimov was mad. He stood up from his seat, looked around, regained his serious expression, and walked out of the conference room.
The 18th floor underground of the abandoned factory on Guiot Star is the command center of Shadow Operations.
Everyone was busy in front of their own optical computer screens. Valery Linton was staring at the "Fuluo Federation Whole Territory Map" suspended in mid-air in front of the tactical table. The 100 red dots on it were all regularly arranged in the predetermined coordinate area. cruise.
Valery Linton's eyes never left the red dot marking Group 13, and he looked at the timer from time to time, calculating the time until the final end of Operation Shadow.
People who don't know would still think that Valery Linton was sleeping and forgetting to eat and sleep for Operation Shadow? Those who are interested will find that there is an occasional cold light flashing in Valery Linton's eyes, like a poisonous snake.
Suddenly a hand patted Vale Linton's shoulder. He was about to get angry when he saw it was Beretta, but his feeling turned into a smile: "Secretary Beretta, what are your orders?"
Beretta did not respond directly to Valery Linton, but asked: "Lord Valery Linton, Group 13 is just procrastinating, is it worthy of you to keep paying attention to them?"
Valery Linton smiled awkwardly: "Secretary Beretta, you misunderstood me. I am paying attention to all the 100 operations personnel. After all, I am the deputy commander-in-chief of this operation. I can't favor one over the other!"
Beretta said "Yeah" softly, and determined in her heart that Valery Linton was not telling the truth. She is not surprised by Valery Linton's performance. Valery Linton has been the leader of the Underworld Hall in the Blackwater Organization for too long, and he is somewhat slack on some of the rules for employees of the Imperial Security Bureau. Otherwise, the Imperial Security Bureau would not be prepared. He was transferred from his current position.
Beretta did not expose Valery Linton's lie, but said: "Immediately send an order to the 100 teams of Operation Shadow personnel to end the cruise time of the hijacked spacecraft one hour early, and they will be free to retreat at that time!"
Valery Linton's expression changed and he asked: "Secretary Beretta, what happened? Isn't it a bit arbitrary to suddenly change the plan!"
Beretta's expression suddenly dropped, and she shouted sternly: "Valley Linton, don't forget that this is a gamma-level mission. The Imperial Security Bureau has its own regulations. Have you forgotten all the rules that you should not ask and are not allowed to ask?" Yet!"
Valery Linton woke up immediately, almost forgetting his identity, and quickly apologized: "Secretary Beretta, it's all my fault. I was too focused on Operation Shadow. I was worried about an accident. I was in a daze and forgot about discipline! Okay, okay, I’ll go deliver the order right away!”
Beretta waved her hand, asking Valery Linton to quickly convey the order. She just wanted to take the opportunity to give Warley Linton a beating so that he could be transferred away from Warey Linton in the future.

In fact, Beretta herself didn't know why Operation Shadow had to end an hour early. She just mechanically followed the orders from the Security Bureau headquarters.
From Beretta's point of view, the Empire has not arranged retreat support for those 300 people anyway. Whether to end the Shadow Operation one hour early does not mean much to them. Whether they can return to the Empire safely depends on the gift of the God of the Universe!
Warley Linton did not dare to neglect, and immediately used a special frequency band to convey the order to the 100 groups of personnel. But after it was over, he thought again and thought, isn't it just cruising in a coordinate area? Ending one hour earlier is no different from ending half an hour earlier. The most important thing is that the later the time is, the easier it is to achieve his goal. .
As for the life and death of the participants, Valery Linton didn't care at all, so he re-delivered the order to Group 13: "Operation Shadow ended half an hour early."

"Oh, you crazy woman, stop it, my ears are open!" A scream echoed through the control room.
"Hmph, your eyes are almost bulging out. You are staring at Sabana in "Red Luan Star Holiday". Didn't you see that there is a beauty next to you?" A crisp female voice retorted with some jealousy.
