Chapter 181: Chapter 61: Backup Artificial Intelligence?

Mechanical Planet, one third of the base personnel have been dispatched to support Huangyang Star.

The soldiers began to mobilize.

All the students received the assembly order in the middle of the night. Though bewildered, they trusted the officers and quickly took action.

Admiral Bai ordered the immediate detention of Major General Mo and his close aides.

The secret orders returned from Huangyang Star all involved Major General Mo.

If the issue involves Major General Mo, then it must involve his confidants too.

Major General Mo sat in the interrogation room, his brows furrowed, the desk lamp tilted to cast half his face in shadow.

Admiral Bai reviewed the profiles of Major General Mo and several of his subordinates.

Where they had been recently and what they had done were all recorded in the files.

Unfortunately, nothing special could be discerned from the files.

How they did it and how long they had been planning, he knew nothing.

Admiral Bai tapped impatiently on the desk, having just secured a good deal, yet these people refused to let him have peace, always seeking to disrupt an otherwise stable societal system to gain a sense of existence.

Using the guise of creating a better world, they incite war, but in truth it’s for their own gain.

The narrow-mindedness is deplorable and revolting.

Admiral Bai initially intended to personally lead this battle, but due to damned spies, he must remain seated at the base and cannot leave.

Mechanical Planet has two Vice Admirals, one Chief and one Deputy.

So this time only the Deputy can support Huangyang Star.

“Major General Mo. Speak up, why did you send information to the people over in Huangyang City, without having the students return immediately? Don’t tell me you didn’t send the message.” The interrogation officer presented the content of the deployed task and the secret order image to Major General Mo, the evidence was indisputable.

Major General Mo, young-looking for his age of fifty, had already achieved great merits.

It’s truly unfathomable why he would become a spy.

“I never issued that order.” Major General Mo did not admit, sitting at the interrogation desk without showing the slightest shrink of fear, his logic remained clear.

“Student affairs have always been handled by Colonel Bai; I haven’t acted beyond him on anything. I’ve already said, before suspecting me, confirm the facts of the matter. This period is not my shift time; I wasn’t in the office to send out this task.”

“It can be scheduled, or delegated to subordinates.”

“Don’t joke around; only I know the password…” Major General Mo suddenly fell silent, “It’s very unlikely.”

“What is unlikely, you also know the situation in Huangyang City is urgent, Major General Mo, you’ve fought for so many years, if you know something, just say it.”

Each general’s office is cleaned by themselves; subordinates must knock before entering.

Three months ago, Major General Mo brought his wife on a brief visit to the office, “She may have studied mechanical engineering, but she hasn’t touched it for many years.” Only that once, he turned on the computer in her presence.

Just that once.

“My wife’s background check was conducted by you.” Major General Mo and his wife met through a matchmaking agency, “She rarely socializes and her biggest hobby is fiddling with models.”

Major General Mo’s wife had lived at the base for a long time; they were a loving couple and very familiar with each other. Major General Mo did not think his wife was someone who would betray the base.

“We’ll figure out what’s going on.”

Sometimes the one beside you is the one hiding the deepest stab.

The interrogation was not finished; subsequently, Major General Mo appeared somewhat dejected, the seed of doubt once sown, every bit of his life seemed filled with insincerity.

Simultaneously, Major General Mo’s subordinates faced the same treatment, but he kept his mouth shut.

After more than ten minutes of interrogation, he condescendingly spoke, “The Ten Stars System is about to experience rebirth, you people of the old world are waiting to be eliminated. The main event is just starting; you’re about to feel the greatness of God.”

The listeners behind the interrogation scenes were at a loss for words.

God? Are those cult fanatics causing trouble again?

More than a decade ago, when everyone was busy dealing with the Insect Men, a group of fanatic priests suddenly emerged roaming from planet to planet.

They looted money under the name of God, recruited worshippers everywhere, creating social chaos.

Later they were beaten like rats in the streets by the military and police who were then freed up.

Could the reborn spies be associated with the fanatics who were struck down back then?

This question can currently only be marked with a question mark.

This arrogant fool in front of them was clearly one of the masterminds behind the disappearances and the students remaining on Huangyang Star.

They need to figure out how he communicated without them knowing.

However, except for shouting a few battle cries, he kept his mouth tightly shut.
