When Yi Chen heard what the military police captain said, he thought it made sense.
He has never been to a few real military installations, whether on earth or in alien worlds, so he lacks basic knowledge about them. He no longer cares about the sparse personnel in the Fulcrum Rock Military Aviation Alley, and is ready to say In order to cover up his embarrassment, he asked some other topics: "Brother, what do you call me? How long does it take for us to go to the military court?"
The military police captain was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "My name is Lekeba. Captain Chen Sheng, you may have misunderstood. The order I received is to arrest you and send you to a military prison, not to a military court." ."
Yi Chen, who was originally casual with his legs crossed and a relaxed look on his face, immediately opened his eyes and shouted after hearing this: "Military prison? Shouldn't it be sent to a military prison after being interrogated and sentenced? I haven't been to that before. Where is the military court?”
Captain Rekba frowned, pondered for a while, and then said: "This is an order directly issued by Lieutenant General Enver, commander of the Fulcrum Star Military Region. I think it may be because the Fulcrum Star Military Region is currently in a 'wartime state' Because the judge of the military court is busy with the affairs of the frontline troops, he has no time to pay attention to you, so he will temporarily imprison you in a military prison!"
The judge of the military court in each military district of the empire is not only a judge, but also a soldier. It is common for trials to be postponed when there are military tasks. Although this may seem a bit unprofessional and unfair, there is no other way. Who is to let others be a military court? Some privileges are normal!
"Is it a wartime state?" Yi Chen whispered in a low voice: "It's still a 'wartime state'. Our X-type escort boat group has already fought a bloody battle with the federal army in the Interstellar Rift Valley. Why can't we be considered a front-line force? ?Why can't we give priority to the trial of our disobedience of military orders? I'm thinking, forget it, let's go to jail first. Anyway, I have already anticipated this worst step! It's just a pity for my men, You will be as unlucky as me for a while. I wonder when will you be able to walk out of the military prison and redress the injustice?"
After a while, the fully enclosed maglev car stopped. Yi Chen stepped down from it and took a look and found that the car was parked in front of a tall gray metal gate.
There are tall and long thick walls on both sides in front of the metal gate. There is also a plasma firewall on the upper end of the wall. The two walls together are a full 100 meters high. No ordinary person can even think of crossing a wall of this height. That's not all. There are laser defense towers set up every 50 meters on the wall. Even ordinary armored vehicles and small ships cannot easily pass through the high wall. This military prison is really impregnable!
Yi Chen turned around and looked around, and found that there was only one sealed maglev car carrying him here, and the sealed maglev car carrying Xiao Yi and others did not follow at all.
Captain Lekeba saw Yi Chen's expression and movements and hurriedly explained: "This is an intermediate military prison where officers at the rank of lieutenant colonel are detained. All of your subordinates have relatively low military ranks. One or two of them were promoted to the rank of captain on the battlefield. They are now second lieutenants, but because the procedures have not been fully completed, they are not eligible to be detained here. They have all been sent to low-level military prisons where ordinary soldiers are detained. Captain Chen Sheng, please come here, the warden is already here." He pointed. Pointed at several soldiers standing at the prison gate.
The empire is highly hierarchical and has many planets. It can be said that it is vast and sparsely populated, so this kind of military prison is created to hold soldiers of different levels. There is inequality everywhere.
Yi Chen followed Captain Lekeba towards the prison gate. From a distance, he saw a middle-aged man with a fleshy face wearing a major's uniform, standing between two prison guards wearing a captain's uniform.
"Sir, this is Captain Chen Sheng. Please carry out the handover procedure now!" Captain Lekeba saluted the arrogant major, took out a quantum notepad, and operated on it for a while. With a soft beep, Yi Chen's holographic figure appeared, with rows of text introduction information next to it.
The arrogant major first glanced at the captain rank on Yi Chen's shoulder in confusion, then looked at Captain Lekeba, and then nodded and took the quantum notepad. He carefully checked Yi Chen's holographic figure and the text information on it, then handed the quantum notepad to Yi Chen, pointed to a button on it and said with a smile: "Captain Chen Sheng, please confirm your identity and press it with your middle finger. Just press the button.”
Yi Chen knew that this was a precautionary measure to avoid picking up the wrong person, so he did as he was told without any objection. Just seeing this scene, the military police frowned and expressed their dissatisfaction.
The major, who was full of anger, saw that the data that appeared in the quantum notebook was exactly the same as before, and he quickly apologized to Captain Lekeba and said with a smile: "Haha, everyone, it's not that I don't believe you, but because this is a fixed procedure. , so please bear with me!" He pressed a button and asked the quantum notepad to store his identity in it.
Captain Lekeba didn't say much. He just took the quantum notepad, saluted the savage-faced major, and then got in the car and left.
The arrogant major kept smiling as he watched the maglev car start up. After the maglev car went away, he spat in the direction of the maglev car and cursed viciously: "You are a bully who takes advantage of others. Do you think you can scare people by wearing a wolfskin?" After saying that, without even looking at Yi Chen, he casually ordered: "Put him in a single cell." Then he turned around and led the way into the Fulcrum Star Intermediate Military Prison.
The two captain prison guards said "yes" and pushed Yi Chen fiercely towards the Fulcrum Star Intermediate Military Prison.
Although Yi Chen was very dissatisfied, on the one hand, he was a prisoner, and on the other hand, the prison guard had a higher military rank than him, so he could only swallow his anger for the time being!
Walking into the door of the Fulcrum Star Intermediate Military Prison, before Yi Chen had time to see the inside of the prison clearly, he was quickly taken into a dark room with various torture instruments hanging on the walls.
Just as Yi Chen was about to ask, two captain prison guards put a collar full of technology around his neck. Seeing this weird thing, he couldn't help shouting: "What are you doing?"
A captain prison guard lifted the photon handcuffs for Yi Chen. After hearing Yi Chen's words, another captain prison guard shook something like a remote control in his hand and smiled sinisterly: "Hey hey hey , don’t do anything, we just put on you an ‘Atonement Collar’. This is the controller of the ‘Atonement Collar’. Just press it lightly, and with a ‘bang’ sound, the ‘Atonement Collar’ can turn your head off. Explode to pieces! Of course, if you escape from the Fulcrum Star Intermediate Military Prison without permission, even if you don't press the button, the 'Atonement Collar' will explode immediately and send you to see the God of the Universe! So, Chen Sheng, you'd better be honest. Please, don't cause trouble for us, otherwise the 'Atonement Collar' will suddenly explode, and you will be the unlucky one!"
"..." After hearing this, Yi Chen was stunned on the spot. The scenes he saw in science fiction movies and TV series on Earth never expected to happen to him. For a moment, his mind went blank and he didn't know what to do.
Anyone who knows that there is something like a bomb around their neck will be at a loss what to do!
Silently following the two captain prison guards, they walked zigzag in the long corridor. After more than ten minutes, the captain prison guard holding the controller of the 'Atonement Collar' said: "Okay, we're here. This is your cell."
Immediately, the door of the cell opened automatically, revealing a narrow room with only a bed, a toilet, a faucet and a washbasin.
The captain prison guard who removed the photon handcuffs for Yi Chen roughly pushed Yi Chen, and the dazed Yi Chen was locked in this simple cell.
Yi Chen, who was stunned in the cell, was awakened by a "squeaking" sound. He looked up and found energy arcs flashing on the metal door of the cell. It was frightening to see. These energy arcs could easily knock people out. Fortunately, there are several small windows on the metal door through which you can check out the situation in the prison.
Yi Chen returned to normal from his previous daze, touched the cold "atonement collar" on his neck and cursed in his heart. He was both humiliated and angry, and in the end he could only accept it silently. He looked out through the small window on the metal door of the cell and saw a transparent spherical room floating in a huge cylindrical space. Inside were more than a dozen prison guards with live ammunition. From the floating transparent spherical room, , you can see all the cells of this cylindrical prison building at a glance.
Opposite the cylindrical space are rows of cells similar to Yi Chen's. The doors are all closed. It's unclear whether there are any prisoners inside. Yi Chen observed carefully for a while and found that this cylindrical building had 70 floors, with 200 cells on each floor. He calculated that he was being held in Cell No. 172 on the 33rd floor.
After a long time, it was quiet here. Yi Chen felt a little irritable and couldn't help shouting outside: "Hey, is anyone being detained nearby? I am Cell No. 172 on the 33rd floor?"
The prison guard in the floating transparent spherical room just glanced at Yi Chen without any superfluous expression. Apart from the lingering echoes, there was no sound at all.
Yi Chen muttered to himself dejectedly: "I am not the only prisoner in this huge cylindrical prison building, right? I wonder how Xiao Yi and the others are doing? Alas, this is the treatment given to intermediate-level military prisons, and their low-level military I'm afraid the prison won't be much better." Sitting weakly on the hard bed, staring at the metal walls in a daze.
