There is a long border between the Fulo Federation's Nevada system and the Pirate Nebula, where countless star systems are distributed, large and small.

Because they are located on the edge of the Nevada galaxy, they were born very old, often with a long history of 8 to 10 billion years.

In the boundless universe, nothing can resist the power of time. The central stars in these many star systems have mostly turned into red dwarfs, white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes after a long period of evolution, and ended up dilapidated and dead.

Most of their situations are similar to the Deadwood star system. Many planets in the entire star system have lost the conditions for the survival of intelligent creatures and are floating alone in the dark space with no one paying attention.

However, there are also some star systems where the stars in the center have long lifespans and have not completely lost their ability to emit light and heat. Like decrepit old men, they are able to use the last remaining heat of the setting sun to support the operation of some living planets in the star system.

Among them is the Zayawu star system. Scientists from the Fulo Federation predict that in another 100 million years, the stars in the Zayawu star system will expand into red giants, causing the Zayawu star system to completely lose the basis for the survival of intelligent life and enter the mortal world of many of its neighbors.

The Komos star is a third-level life planet, running in the fourth orbit of the Zayawu star system. Because the sun at the center of the Zayawu star system has entered the late stage of its life and cannot provide enough heat energy to the Komos star, one-third of the surface of the Komos star is covered with ice and snow all year round.

Looking at Komos from space, white is its main tone. The lack of sunlight means that the annual average temperature of Komos is only 13 degrees, and it is below 0 degrees most of the time, which seriously restricts human outdoor activities. The population is only about 1 billion.

Komos Star also has its own advantages, which is minerals. The entire planet is rich in fluorite, and the largest fluorite mine in the Fulo Federation is on Komos.

The Binsk star in the third orbit and the Samara star in the fifth orbit, which are adjacent to Komos, are also rich in minerals and have amazing fluorite reserves. Because Binsk and Samara are both uninhabited resource planets, and they belong to the Zayawu star system next to the Komos star, they naturally belong to the Komos star.

Fluorite is one of the three major energy minerals in the alien world. Without them, the alien world would instantly become a planetary civilization instead of the current interstellar civilization. Relying on its rich fluorite mines, Komos feeds the 1 billion people on it.

Today, Medrop, the captain of Komos Star, is hosting a meeting at the captain's residence to discuss the mining development plan of Komos Star with many of his subordinates.

This is a spacious and bright conference room with a 20-meter long mahogany table in the middle. Medrop sits at one end of the long table and others sit on both sides of the long table.

Everyone was discussing the content of the meeting enthusiastically, and Medrop sat quietly, listening patiently to his men's opinions without expressing any opinions. He is not tall, and his lips are a bit thin. When he grins, he gives people a sense of irony and disdain, revealing his cold and vicious side.

This is not alarmist. From the fact that no one dared to sit near Medrop at the long mahogany table, it can be seen that all the people in Komos are afraid of Medrop.

Medrop is very capable. He has served as the captain of the Komos Stars for many consecutive years. He is re-elected with a high vote in every election and is deeply loved by the Komos Stars.

But there are many critics of Medrop. Because every time a competitor similar to Medrop appeared, those competitors' spaceships either crashed accidentally, were attacked by pirates in the Pirate Nebula, or were involved in various scandals. As a result, those competitors either died violently or died. His reputation plummeted, and he no longer had the opportunity or ability to compete with Medrop for captaincy.

In view of the fact that this weird situation has happened many times, many people who want to challenge Medrop's status will use these things as an excuse to question Medrop's conspiracy to kill or frame his competitors. However, none of these accusations can provide solid evidence, and in the end they can only become a dead case.

As time went by, the prominent figures on Komos no longer dared to challenge Medrop easily, and he was allowed to serve as captain for longer and longer.

Comes longer and longer.

Mining Minister Saugures was making an impassioned speech when he was suddenly interrupted by a "beep beep" request for a call. He was very unhappy and cursed: "Whose communicator is this? Why didn't you turn it off during the meeting? It? How many times has Captain Medrop emphasized that everyone must abide by meeting discipline? Isn’t it possible to do such a simple thing?..."

When someone suddenly couldn't help but let out an unbearable sneer, Shaugures realized that something was wrong. He turned around and saw that the sound came from Medrop's communicator. He immediately swallowed back the harsher curses below, his face turned red and his neck was thick from holding it in, he looked like a toad chirping, ugly and funny.

Medrop did not blame Shaugures, and connected to the communicator as if no one else was around. Alexey's holographic image appeared, and the father and son began an unfriendly conversation. The Komos Star Mining Development Conference was suspended and waited for the captain to finish his work before continuing. No one among the dozens of *** dared to show dissatisfaction.

Something unexpected happened soon after. Medrop had just finished watching the holographic video Alexei sent him and scolded Alexei when a "boom" explosion suddenly came from behind Alexei. Voice.

They saw the people around Alexey being suddenly broken into pieces by various metals, cut into horrible pieces of flesh, and then an iron rod as thick as a bowl was penetrated from the back of Alexei's head and out from the front of his face, The iron rod with sticky brains hit Medrop who was watching from the holographic image, and then the holographic image stopped abruptly and disappeared into thin air.

All this happened so suddenly, Medrop was stunned on the spot, and then shouted with a trembling voice: "Ah...Lexey, ah...Leksey..." He hurriedly clicked on the communicator, trying to When I contacted the other party, I received a very emotionless reply: "The user you dialed is not in the service area. Please call again later..."

Although everyone was sitting a little far away from Medrop, some people with good eyesight could see clearly the contents of the holographic image and understood what was happening.

"Hehe, you really deserve it. Your son who did all kinds of evil was finally taken away by the God of the Universe!"

"Haha, you have been stabbed in the head. Your only son is dead now, Medrop. I wonder if you still have the heart to run for the next election of captain!"

"Hmph, after all the bad things have been done, retribution has finally come. Alexey, this little beast, is finally finished. Komos has lost a human devil!"

"..."

The hearts of all the police officers were mostly filled with gloating, contempt, and curses, with little sympathy or sadness. It was obvious that Medrop and Alexei, the father and son, were not popular in the eyes of the senior officials of Komos.

After several failed attempts, the furious Medrop dropped the communicator on the floor of the conference room and turned it into countless parts. Then he took a deep breath and glanced around with bloodshot eyes. Everyone in the conference room sternly said: "No one is allowed to spread the news today, otherwise they will become enemies of me, Medrop. The police chief stays, and everyone else leaves the meeting!"

Chief of Police Chevney has gray hair, a tall nose and deep eyes, and a strong build. He is a close confidant of Meddrop. With the police force in his hands, he made great contributions to Meddrop's re-election. Medrop likes to let him help with many difficult things.

After Meddrop and Chevny were left in the conference room, Meddrop calmed down a little and asked eagerly: "Chevny, is there any confidential information from the federal police system recently? Why is Alex Xie’s spaceship suddenly stopped moving. Is this completely unreasonable?”

Chevney was so anxious that his head was full of anxiety. He judged from the holographic image that Alexei was definitely dead. Alexei was Meddrop's only son. If he couldn't give Meddrop a satisfactory answer at this time, Meddrop might be furious. Roop punishes.

Others don't know how scary Medrop is, but Chevni knows it very well. He accepted Medrop's orders and did many bad things beyond ordinary people's awareness. Relying on such cruel methods, many people died behind the scenes every time the Komos Stars elected their captain, and Medrop was re-elected with a high number of votes.

"Ordinary people are stupid. All you need is bread and a whip to make them behave!"

These are Medrop's exact comments about the Komos people behind his back, and many ordinary Komos people also treat Medrop

Considered a hero.

Chevney suddenly thought of a piece of news related to spaceships in the police system, and said: "Captain Qiu, before our mineral meeting started, the Police Department had received an official letter from the Federal Police Department, requesting cooperation in the investigation of 100 hijacked spaceships. Information, confidentiality level V. I was in a hurry to come to the meeting, so I arranged for the deputy director to handle the matter. Is Alexei’s matter related to the hijacked spacecraft?"

Medrop wasn't sure. He immediately called his secretary to check Alexei's itinerary, and at the same time asked Chevny to get the information on the 100 hijacked spacecraft.

After some comparison, several people discovered that Alexei was actually on the hijacked KN-HL-2021 passenger spacecraft. At the same time, the TV began to broadcast news that 100 federal passenger spacecraft had been hijacked by terrorists, who refused to accept negotiations. In order to save tens of thousands of hijacked federal citizens, the army and police cooperated to pursue and intercept the terrorists. However, seeing that he could not escape, the frantic *** actually detonated the spacecraft. It is a pity that he could not save those federal citizens. Let us observe 3 minutes of silence for them.

Medrop became angry when he heard this. In the holographic video Alexei sent him, it was clear that the Federation's most elite transformation warriors rescued a man and a woman, but there was no mention of it in the news. There must be a conspiracy behind this. Besides, if those reformed warriors had left with his son at that time, Alexei would not have died!

"I, Medrop, swear that no matter who it is, the person who killed my son must be punished!"
