2705. Escape
Bang! The heavy iron fence was closed in front of Carl-Kestis, and then with a swish sound, more than a dozen blood-red laser beams were shot out, closing the gap in the fence.
Carl-Kestis sat slumped on the ground, looking at the fence in front of him.
Well, 17 alloy railings and 13 laser beams can prevent people inside from getting out even if the power is cut off. What a thoughtful thought. Carl-Kestis immediately counted the number of iron fences, and then he found that he had nothing to do...
The entire cell was empty, except for a bed that was integrated with the wall and a toilet in the corner.
Carl-Kestis suddenly collapsed and lay down on the hard bed, looking at the ceiling.
He still didn't dare to make up his mind to resist.
At the last moment, he sealed the items in the floor grid and escaped without mercy.
After all, the man's voice that night was too weird. He has lived in Kingdom of Dawn for ten years, and if nothing happens, he plans to continue living. There is no reason to give up everything for an inexplicable memory and an inexplicable mysterious person, right?
More importantly, he still believes in Kingdom of Dawn's justice. At least judging from the news and cases he has been exposed to so far, although Kingdom of Dawn's laws are strict, everyone is equal most of the time.
Of course, there are also privileged classes, namely those Mega-corporations's leading figures. But even so, those people would not go too far. Most of the laws those people violated were illegal experiments and the like.
Carl-Kestis believes that at best he is an ignorant person and is not guilty, because he really does not know anything. Moreover, it is too common for salvage and recycling companies like them to occasionally recover some military gadgets and then secretly sell them.
Most of the time, even if you are caught, it is just a symbolic fine. With the current strength of Kingdom of Dawn fleet, generally no particularly critical wreckage will be taken away.
However, he was careful and did not hand over the memory. He was still a little worried. There was something there that, if obtained by Tang Xiao, would make Sith Lord even more powerful.
No matter what, preventing a Sith Lord from becoming stronger is what he should do as a Jedi Knight... even if it was once.
He was not worried about being discovered by the floor grid designed by Carl-Kestis. Because it is actually a Jedi lock with a very delicate structure that can only be opened from the inside. And because of the different force modes, even if it is opened repeatedly, no clues can be seen from the outside.
The material of the floor grid is also a special material that can isolate Force probe. This was recovered from an Eta-2 fighter jet when he was salvaging in the Yago-Dur system. It should be a fighter jet flown by Dark Followers of a certain Galactic Empire. This thing is what Dark Followers uses to store his secret items.
However, Dark Followers was killed during the battle, and the compartment where the items were stored was opened. It was obviously used at the last moment, but he still could not escape the fate of death. In the end, this small grid was obtained by Carl-Kestis, and then transformed into his own secret storage grid.
Therefore, unless you use the Force to carefully explore bit by bit, it is absolutely impossible to find that grid.
After a while, several police officers came over with combat robots, handcuffed Carl-Kestis, and escorted him to the interrogation room on the other side.
He was locked on the table and waited for a full ten minutes before the sound of high heels could be heard outside the door.
A tall woman with a baby face came in and sat down opposite Carl. He looked Carl up and down for a while, then said with a cold smile, "Okay, kid, I won't talk nonsense to you. Just hand over the memory you got from the core host yesterday, and you can go home."
Carl-Kestis said very sincerely, "I told you, I put that thing in the drawer of the desk, and then your people came over to ask me, and even came in to scan for a while and found nothing. Then I looked again, and the thing had disappeared!"
The woman sighed, then suddenly banged the table and said sternly, "Do you believe this nonsense? What do you mean you disappeared?!"
Carl-Kestis said with an innocent face, "I really didn't lie to you! If I really wanted to lie, I could just find a reason... But the problem is, that thing is really gone! I put it in the drawer and haven't touched it since!"
The woman smiled coldly and said, "Forget it, it looks like you are going to resist to the end, right?"
"I really don't have it... That thing is just gone. I really don't know what to say! I don't know what happened... I can't open that thing, so what's the use of keeping it?" Carl-Kestis said.
The woman frowned. She carefully observed Carl-Kestis's every move, even the subtle movements of the muscles on her face. However, she did not find any clues.
Carl-Kestis also came prepared. The rhetoric he prepared may seem absurd, but in fact it avoids making too many mistakes. Compared with a ridiculous and simple lie, compared with a realistic and sophisticated lie, it is obvious that the latter has more loopholes.
Because you need to make up a new lie for every detail to be able to tell it. Compared with this, it is better to say nothing at all. A mysterious person did appear that night, and the people at the Security Bureau obviously knew that someone had sneaked in, and they were also arresting him.
Therefore, his set of lies actually has internal logic.
And he secretly used the Force to control his micro-expressions to make his expressions appear more natural as possible.
Carl-Kestis has also discovered that the woman in front of him is a Force-sensitive, and she is very close to Force-sensitive. However, this level is far from being able to expose him.
As expected, the woman began to doubt this statement. She stood up and walked out. It took a full ten minutes before she came back, apparently to ask for instructions from her superiors.
However, when she came back, her expression became colder. She was too lazy to sit down and said coldly to Carl: "Since you don't say anything, then you can continue to live here. I hope you are happy here."
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Hey! According to the law, you can only detain me for a maximum of 24 standard hours!!" Carl-Kestis said loudly.
The woman turned her head, smiled coldly, and asked, "Law? You mean, the rules and regulations formulated by us? Haha."
Sure enough, Carl-Kestis was detained here for the next two days, and he was given very little food, only a small piece of steamed bread and a glass of water every day. Not only that, but very bright lights were on for a long time in his cell, making it impossible for him to even sleep.
The woman in the middle came to interrogate him again, but Carl-Kestis still insisted on her story. In the end, she was at her wits end, so she didn't show up again.
Another day passed and the situation suddenly changed.
A girl came to the security station, to be precise, a beautiful Ayrou girl. She has beautiful colorful feathers on her head, her facial features are very delicate, and her complexion is a little pale, which makes her look more like a human.
Ayrou Basically, except for the feathers and skin color, which are somewhat different from humans, other appearances are actually the same as those of humans.
Therefore, even by human standards, this girl is a very beautiful beauty.
It stands to reason that Annaj Planet was once occupied by Ayrou. It is not surprising to see a Ayrou here now. Including Security Bureau in the past few days, Carl has also seen several Ayrou, whether they are peace officers or prisoners.
However, the moment he saw this girl, Carl-Kestis suddenly became nervous.
This girl is a Force-sensitive! And it's definitely a very powerful one!
Carl-Kestis hides his the Force very carefully, trying not to be discovered as much as possible. This girl came to Carl and said coldly, "Okay, come with me."
Her speaking voice is as beautiful as singing.
"Where to go?" Carl-Kestis became alert.
"Go to your house." The girl replied matter-of-factly.
"I Homeworld have nothing." Carl-Kestis replied coldly.
"Let's go." The girl was too lazy to say anything more, and just waved. The two B-2 super battle robots who were always on standby had already walked up and grabbed Carl's shoulders.
Carl was escorted into a police car, while the girl boarded a nearby streamlined shuttle that looked very luxurious and advanced. It was obvious that her status was definitely not low.
There are many people who can ride on luxury spaceships, and you can see them everywhere. But someone who rides a luxury spaceship and can freely enter and exit Security Bureau and give orders is definitely a big shot.
Returning to the apartment building, Carl found that it had been cordoned off. Walking all the way upstairs, he suddenly discovered that the apartment he lived in had been vacated! All the furniture was gone, leaving only an empty house!
Carl's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately felt that something was wrong! He began to observe his surroundings, secretly calculating whether he could directly resist arrest and escape by force.
The results were disappointing.
Not only was the vague buzzing in mid-air indicating that at least two Banshee Fighters were present, there were also two B-2 super combat robots directly grabbing his shoulders, four other B-2s standing next to him, and dozens of B-1 combat robots constantly patrolling the upper and lower floors of the apartment building.
There were more than 20 police officers at the scene, as well as five or six agents dressed in black.
What's more, that girl Ayrou, her power is even more unfathomable!
"Talia." The girl suddenly said.
"Eh?" Carl-Kestis didn't react for a moment.
"Talia, my name." She repeated.
"Uh... should I say it's nice to meet you?" Carl-Kestis smiled bitterly. He didn't know the name, but he could guess that this girl most likely belonged to Twilight Covenant.
An extremely mysterious the Force organization belonging to Kingdom of Dawn, directly taking orders from King of Dawn Tang Xiao.
Talia did not continue this topic, but went straight to the place where the bed was placed before Carl-Kestis. As soon as he saw where she was standing, Carl knew something was wrong!
She found the secret compartment!
Carl knew that he had underestimated Kingdom of Dawn's determination after all! They really evacuated Homeworld, and then sent a powerful Force-sensitive over to find all the clues inch by inch!
Talia tapped his foot lightly and said calmly, "Can you help me open this thing? If I use other methods, I'm worried about damaging the things inside."
"Is this why you brought me here?" Carl-Kestis gritted his teeth to prevent himself from trembling. Now he was starting to panic.
"Otherwise?" Talia asked as a matter of course.
"I..." Carl was speechless for a moment.
The sound of high heels came again, and I saw the tall, baby-faced woman from before also walking over, staring coldly at Carl, "Hand over the things intact, you will get a bonus, and then everything will be as usual. You continue to salvage garbage, and we will continue to protect your safety."
"I..." At that moment, Carl-Kestis almost wanted to agree.
However, at this moment, the tragedy of Palanci Planet Space City came to his mind again. His eyes sharpened and he said word by word, "This thing must not be obtained by Archangel of Death!"
"Are you Jedi Knight?" Talia asked, "Generally, only Jedi Knight will call His Majesty Archangel of Death. This is a pseudonym His Majesty once used, and Jedi Knight is very reluctant to mention the title of Sith Lord."
"Don't you know Palanci Planet massacre? This thing is very dangerous! If Tang Xiao gets it, the galaxy will be devastated!!" Carl-Kestis roared loudly.
However, he saw Talia's indifferent expression, and his heart suddenly felt cold.
"That's enough! Boy! I don't want to play games with you anymore! Hand over your things! Otherwise, I'm really going to torture you!" The baby-faced woman suddenly became angry. She tried to slap her, but she stopped at the last moment.
However, before Carl could say anything, a sudden change occurred!
Suddenly there was a loud bang! A Banshee Fighter that was hovering in the air in an invisible state suddenly exploded into a ball of flames, hovered and then fell down!
All the surrounding combat robots turned their heads and looked at the sky with a swishing sound, raising their weapons at the same time, with a reaction speed of less than 0.5 seconds!
I only saw an obviously modified shuttle rushing over at high speed, with three blaster cannons in front firing wildly. Boom boom boom! There was another explosion, and another Banshee Fighter was also shot down!
This shuttle was actually able to directly lock onto Banshee Fighter in its invisible state!
At this time, Talia had already pulled out Lightsaber and jumped into the air!
