Tianrui Government is quite dissatisfied with Department of Anomalous Affairs's answer: Are you going to let Tianrui pay for the trouble you created? This is a whole Habitable Star! It doesn't matter if the ship is suspended for a day or two. Three or five days... it will pass if you tolerate it.

But the indefinite suspension is... very disappointing.

What about Department of Anomalous Affairs? It threatens the economy and people's livelihood of the entire planet. Can you handle this? Tianrui Government is unwilling to do so, but he will not directly contradict Department of Anomalous Affairs's suggestion.

They indeed continued to suspend sailing, but at the same time, they also complained to Star Domain Government: Department of Anomalous Affairs's request was too much.

This is a normal process in the government system. Problems that cannot be solved by oneself must of course be reported.

However, Starfield Government did not support Sky Hook - in the government, who doesn't know how to kick a ball?

They told Sky Hook Government: This matter still requires careful negotiation between your party and Department of Anomalous Affairs.

Our attitude is that we cannot affect Sky Hook's economy and people's livelihood, but we cannot ignore Department of Anomalous Affairs's requirements.

You know, Department of Anomalous Affairs's actions this time are very big and the losses are also heavy. The local government cannot be an obstacle to them.

As for how to negotiate and to what extent we can get the best of both worlds - well, we believe in the wisdom of Sky Hook Government!

Sky Hook The officials here are so angry that they want to curse, but there is no other way. This is the tone set by the superiors.

You guys can just talk with each other and don't even have any guidance. It's really "standing and talking without pain in the back".

However, Tianrui Government really had no choice but to continue to suspend sailing, but privately did not prohibit the spread of rumors.

This is Department of Anomalous Affairs's request, and Star Domain Government doesn't give us support, so when the suspension will end... who knows! Anomalous Celestial Phenomenon? Doesn't exist! Abnormal celestial phenomena can be analyzed to determine the approximate time, but human factors cannot be helped.

Just when the rumors were spreading, Qu Jianlei contacted Paranoid of Sky Hook through Xiao Hu.

The actions of the two planets were negotiated at the beginning, and the purpose was to echo each other.

Tianrui There are many highs here, making it difficult to attack.

In addition, there were also Bentley and Awakened One with lower cultivation levels participating. In order to facilitate the escape from the scene, Tianrui launched first.

After Tianrui launches an attack here, it will definitely attract Department of Anomalous Affairs's great attention, and the vigilance of other planets will be relatively relaxed.

Then Paranoid chose the opportunity to launch an attack. Faced with such a situation, Department of Anomalous Affairs would definitely have trouble keeping track of each other.

In this way, the possibility of Qu Jianlei and his party escaping from Tianrui will be greatly increased.

As for the possibility of Paranoid being trapped in Sky Hook... that's not a big deal.

This Mental Strength is very strong and he is alone, so it is not very difficult to sneak across.

Even if smuggling fails, he knows the empire far better than others, and the possibility of being searched is extremely low.

Paranoid himself does not reject such an arrangement. He even believes that this is Hongjingtian's recognition of his own strength.

This series of plans basically achieved their goals, but the final result was still a bit unsatisfactory.

Who would have thought that Tianrui Government could be so cowardly as to be unable to give a deadline to end the suspension? Qu Jianlei and his group came here in a private starship at a huge price, and in their plan, they also planned to leave like this.

However, no matter how powerful the forces behind the private starships are, can they withstand the official suspension of sailings? In fact, this private starship doesn't feel the need to take risks - no one can leave, so just stay a little longer.

But for Qu Jianlei and his party, the danger will gradually increase if they continue to wait.

When Department of Anomalous Affairs's support arrives, it will be even more difficult to escape.

For this reason, Qu Jianlei contacted Paranoid and wanted to know what the situation was like on his side.

"I'm fine," Paranoid said simply. "It's not convenient to sneak across the border now, but it's only a matter of time before we escape."

"On the other hand, you feel a little bad... the other people's cultivation levels are still a bit low."

Qu Jianlei thought about it and said, "Anyway, just act according to the situation. It would be great if you can kill one or two more supremes."

"This is a bit forced," Paranoid Although arrogant, he also has a clear understanding of his own abilities.

"I can give it a try, but it will be more difficult... unless I plan to expose myself."

"Protecting yourself is the first priority," Qu Jianlei replied without hesitation, "I will also find a way."

"I like to hear this." In Paranoid's life, he has become accustomed to having all kinds of expectations, and it is often difficult to refuse.

Now Hongjingtian can actually understand his inconvenience. This feeling is really rare.

The Supreme Being is also a human being, and when faced with a lot of pressure, he will also have headaches.

But most of the time, when they want to complain, they don't have anywhere to talk, so they have to be strong.

For Paranoid, the understanding of his companions prevented him from having to bear the heavy burden. This kind of cooperation was very pleasant.

So he said, "I will choose the time, but it will take time."

Qu Jianlei hung up the communication and curled his lips helplessly: The problem is, what everyone lacks most is time.

Since Paranoid cannot be relied upon entirely, he will take the initiative.

He issued instructions to Xiao Hu, "Hype up the suspension of flights and direct public dissatisfaction in the direction of Department of Anomalous Affairs."

For Big Head Butterfly, hype is not that difficult.

It's not good to speak anonymously all the time, but it can also steal someone's ID to speak - just think of it as a hacker's behavior.

The main thing is that it just needs to be the starting point. If the topic is stirred up, people will naturally follow up and speak.

It even uses Blue Star, a relatively common shocker on the Internet.

"Let me tell you a shocking secret: The recent so-called celestial anomalies in Tianrui are just..."

"Shocking, the palace of a certain planet turned out to be..."

"Someone only said one sentence, but was stabbed nineteen times and died tragically at home. You must learn how to speak..."

Frankly speaking, shocking the empire is not a rare thing, it is nothing more than a gimmick to gain attention.

However, the empire still controls speech relatively strictly, and pays particular attention to information barriers.

Therefore, the noise caused by Xiao Hu is really not too small. It didn't take long for public opinion to begin to ferment.

Who would want their planet to be artificially banned from navigation? The most embarrassing thing is that the period of the ban on sailing is... there is no period! Many poor people who do not have the financial means to travel to the stars have spoken out against it, and there are real complaints.

What's wrong if we can't travel between stars? They live at the bottom of society and are more sensitive to rising prices!

There are also some people whose work involves Tianrui Star products for export.

Reduced demand will be followed by production and work stoppages, and the corresponding income will naturally decrease.

What is particularly hateful is that there are still capitals taking the opportunity to make trouble, and driven by thoughtful people, the market has also been turbulent.

Needless to say, the urinary nature of capital is that if there is no opportunity, it will be artificially created, let alone what is happening now?

The empire is not a complete market economy because the territory is so large that it is necessary to properly control the market.

However, the Tianrui Star government adopted a laissez-faire attitude at this time. I don't know whether it was because of grievances or because of interests involved.

However, although the government paid no attention to commodity prices or production shutdowns, it still responded to public opinion.

Things like deleting posts and banning people still happen, and the intensity is quite high.

However, it is impossible to completely ban it. Xiao Hu's ability to stir up trouble has greatly improved.

But then, something unexpected happened to Qu Jianlei: Anti-Smuggling Department enabled artificial intelligence.

Not only is this thing very smart at deleting posts and banning people, it also weaves a data chain in an attempt to track down the person behind it.

Xiao Hu has already devoured this guy's data fragments, so he is familiar with the situation and will not hesitate to deal with it.

However, it is far behind in terms of computing power, so the process of avoiding it affects its work efficiency.

After Qu Jianlei found out, he almost wanted to curse: Department of Anomalous Affairs, what are you Anti-Smuggling Department getting involved in? He could imagine that foreign affairs management and anti-smuggling were both under the direct control of the empire, and it would not be difficult to coordinate the cooperation between the two departments.

But this still made him feel unhappy: I just let you go Anti-Smuggling Department, and now I'm jumping out to increase my presence? Then don't blame him for being rude. You should know that it was just Smoke Grenade that he released that triggered public opinion.

Does public opinion matter? Of course it is important, but in the face of violent institutions, what does it matter? On the night when artificial intelligence appeared, Qu Jianlei was alone and quietly came to Main Camp in Tianrui Star Anti-Smuggling Department.

Generally speaking, the anti-smuggling headquarters' guards are stricter.

But at this moment, Anti-Smuggling Department's armed forces were also sent out to assist the Tianrui Star government in guarding the star port and maintaining public order.

Even the headquarters' artificial intelligence is helping the government put out the fire, and the headquarters' own protective capabilities are inevitably reduced.

After Qu Jianlei sneaked in quietly, he found a Anti-Smuggling Warship that was in relatively good condition.

Because the entire planet has stopped sailing, the frequency of Anti-Smuggling Warship's dispatches has been greatly reduced, less than 20% of what it was before.

Some of the warships were used to maintain public security, but some warships took this opportunity to start repairs and maintenance.

This battleship has just been maintained and has a small amount of power, but almost no ammunition.

This is the standard daily standby state for warships without combat readiness requirements - live ammunition must be controlled.

Qu Jianlei entered the battleship in the dark, controlled Xiao Hu, and quietly cut off the battleship's connection with the outside world.

Then he released a set of huge battery packs - the movement of the battleship was too loud, so it was safer to use batteries.

With this power, Big Head Butterfly quickly checked the condition of the battleship and found that all equipment was in good condition.

However, another Smart Terminal was discovered, which is in a state of being activated.

Qu Jianlei put away Smart Terminal without hesitation

Then he took out the modified terminal and some ammunition.

"Xiao Hu, first transport the ammunition, then turn on the afterburner to the maximum and force take off!"
