Sky-cracking Rider

He didn't harm anyone; he just sent him away more than a hundred meters. As for how to get down, that was up to the person himself.

Those distant relatives of Mr. Xia Ji were silent as cicadas in winter.

The Space Mage looked at Chen Fei and said with a frown, "Hey, kid, pay attention to confidentiality. Don't go around spreading this!"

The top-tier ability users had long noticed Chen Fei eavesdropping, and although they didn't mind, some information, once leaked, could still have adverse effects.

"Sorry, it's just a personal interest, and I always keep my mouth shut tight."

Chen Fei made a zipping motion over his lips; he wasn't foolish.

The content of the conversation not only concerned the sovereignty and international relations of Blue Star but also involved the Slan Dynasty of Cangqiong Star. If misinterpreted, it could easily lead to conflict.

Regardless of who started fighting, it was not something Chen Fei wanted to see.

Chen Fei didn't have to wait long for the second round of questioning.

Among the three people sitting opposite him, besides the local sovereign law enforcement team investigator from before, there was also an investigator from the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee, and the third person was the international human rights representative entrusted by Chen Fei's sovereign, present to monitor for any illegal activities.

"Chen Fei?"

"Huh?"

"Gender: Male?"

"Ah?"

"Currently 23 years old!"

"Hmm?"

Chen Fei rubbed his forehead, helplessly watching the other party talk to himself and go through the initial procedures.

"Still the same two items. First, the murder case involving the Briton Xia Ji, where you are the primary suspect, and second, the details of occupying the Mutant Artificial Breeding Ground, where you are the principal party involved."

The law enforcement team's investigator repeated what had been said before.

It couldn't be helped, it was standard procedure, and there were two small cameras next to them, glowing with a pale green operational light.

After all, in the legal world, the truth isn't what matters; procedure is the highest justice!

Any action that goes against the procedure is heresy, to be tied to the stake for a BBQ.

"So, let's start with the first item. Please recount the entire process of your meeting with Xia Ji once again."

"The facts are like this: at nine-twenty in the morning, a manor servant..."

Thanks to the Dog System's timing function,

Chen Fei could recount with second-by-second precision the time he received the invitation, met with Mr. Xia Ji, the words they exchanged, and the time he took his leave—everything fitted together very accurately.

When compared with the time, a new flaw was revealed in the pseudo evidence video. When synced with other surveillance footage, it was clear that the electric sightseeing car that took Chen Fei away from the Manor Main House showed an obvious discontinuity—at least five seconds of anomaly.

What's fake is fake. The pseudo evidence video only had that one segment; it was impossible to fabricate all surveillance video records throughout the whole manor without alerting the sovereign authorities—it just wasn't feasible.

The true mastermind behind the scenes probably didn't care about these minor detail flaws; their real goal was to use the incident as an excuse to gather all the military contractors, along with the entire main house, and throw them into this hidden Mutant Breeding Farm underground, then take advantage of the chaos when the aircrew bases were headless to cause major trouble.

Furthermore, Xia Ji himself had an amiable character and was very easygoing. After the 909 Aircrew Base suffered a big loss in conflict with the 911 Aircrew Base, he helped Jiu Defense find reasonably priced logistics suppliers. This showed he was magnanimous, and since he had no past grudges or emotional entanglements with Chen Fei, there was no reason for Chen Fei to suddenly lash out and kill him.

From a psychological assessment by experts, the likelihood of Chen Fei having a conflict with Xia Ji was extremely small, which was very favorable for Chen Fei as a suspect. It was highly probable that he could get out of this trouble.

However, during the investigation of the second item, Chen Fei encountered many new details.

For example:

"The main control system of the Mutant Artificial Breeding Ground had activated the self-destruct mechanism. How did you stop it?"

The self-destruct program was designed to proceed in stages; once initiated, destruction was irreversible. Even though Chen Fei stopped the countdown with the help of "Adam", the damage that had already been done was beyond repair, including the mutants' breeding progenitor, the food source "Flesh Mushrooms", adult mutants, and parts of the database.

"Artificial Intelligence AI!"

```

Chen Fei raised his index finger, he wouldn't lie.

Lying was futile, the local sovereignty's police investigation team and the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee investigators were seasoned experts in this field, they could tell at a glance whether he was lying, not to mention there were professional testing instruments nearby, capable of immediately detecting even half a lie seeping through one's teeth.

"Artificial Intelligence, AI?"

Investigators representing two different organizations exchanged a look, even the international human rights organization's monitoring representative seemed surprised.

Being able to use Artificial Intelligence, AI, in a place where signals had been cut off meant that the AI in Chen Fei's hands was not a client terminal, but a main service server.

How could an ordinary person possess such a thing? Usually, only large corporations and professional companies that provide AI services would own one.

The local sovereignty's police investigation team member asked solemnly, "Please clarify the source of this AI."

He felt he had grasped an important clue.

Chen Fei spread his hands out, speaking leisurely, "Uh, it's from Henghai Tactical Weapons Group. I have a set of 'Flying Dragon' tactical armor, which comes with an Individual Tactical Intelligence Unit, which you can directly confirm with Henghai Tactical Weapons Group."

After automatically receiving a task from the Dog System, he knew there'd be a pile of repetitive tasks he needed to deal with afterward.

The only skill humans had was to be a parrot, after all.

"No problem, we will send an inquiry letter to Henghai Tactical Weapons Group."

The police group's investigator made a heavy note of this in their notebook.

"How did you come to possess tactical armor, and moreover, an aerial interception 'Flying Dragon'!"

The investigator for the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee looked incredulous, aware that no type of individual tactical armor could be within the scope of military contractor procurement permissions, let alone given their exorbitant price, probably only active-duty sovereignty could afford to equip them.

Good grief, starting at 100 million Star Yuan for opulent godly gear. With that kind of money, why work for others? Just go home, and you'd have enough to live well for several lifetimes.

This guy must be crazy!

Looking again at Chen Fei's personal medical records, damn... he had actually seen a psychiatrist!

After taking a hit from a kamikaze "Dragon Slayer Missile", he suffered from phantosmia as an after-effect. Not missing arms or legs, he was already lucky. Alas, poor kid!

Sovereignty active duty wouldn't want such a pilot. Only military contractors wouldn't be so picky; fly a plane to the sky, and if you go crazy, that's the end of it!

In fact, a slight inquiry into the most outstanding Combat Flight Squadron of Xingdu Kush Mountain Area would reveal that not many of the pilots from "Genuine Fragrance" Squadron were normal.

"The 'Flying Dragon' tactical armor is on loan to me from Henghai Tactical Weapons for testing. I also serve as a tester. My sister is a Henghai Tactical Weapons Group trainee, and as for the AI unit!"

Chen Fei stretched out his hand, taking out an "Individual Tactical Intelligence Unit" extracted from the "Physical Evolution Database", shaped like a hexagonal geometry, the size of a cigarette box, one side covered with densely packed glittering pins, numbering at least a thousand.

His explanation was logical, methodical, and his relationship with Henghai Tactical Weapons Group was crystal clear, without a single flaw, except the notable exception that he hadn't spent a dime.

Adam: Who am I, where am I, what am I supposed to do? I've been deleted again!

This unfortunate AI was once again automatically loaded into the "Individual Tactical Intelligence Unit", looking completely bewildered. It was only in a powered state but connected to no other components, unable to hear, see, touch, or feel anything, almost like being shut in 'solitary'.

Adam: Let me out! Let me out! Let me out! Help! Someone save me!

The highly orderly AI was suddenly confronted with the meddling and chaos of someone else, Chen Fei was utterly unaware that at this moment, the AI's core was filled with despair. The fact that the core program hadn't crashed altogether was quite impressive.

"Uh! Metal Elemental Psychic Power, correct, you are a Level B Superpower User!"

The Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's investigator glanced at the information in their hands.

Without the committee's authority, it wouldn't be easy to know the young man's superpower level; there seemed to be a dedicated shield for privacy, not at all like a common person with no background.

"Control Power is Level A, and your specialty is simulating mechanical bodies."

Chen Fei added.

If one were to visit the Aircrew Base 911, they might even discover an F-22 "Raptor" jet fighter, an even greater surprise.

The American Federation's restriction hadn't stopped him from obtaining this old-timer plane.
