478. Investigation

Outer Rim of the galaxy, Drazkel System.

A white light flashed by, and the two latest Delta-7 fighter jets left the hyperspace driven by the hyperspace ring and appeared in this hidden galaxy.

"Master, we are here." A young human, Jedi apprentice, clicked a few buttons in the cab to detach the fighter from the hyperspace ring.

Inside the other fighter jet was a Mon Calamari Jedi Master. The long face like a flounder was already covered with wrinkles. "Let's look for clues here, Layun."

His name is Yajin, an older Jedi Master and Layun's master.

Jedi apprentice, named Layun, looked at the large space station that appeared outside, frowned and said, "This space station has been abandoned."

Indeed, this large space station with a diameter of more than 500 meters was in darkness, and the engine used to maintain a synchronous orbit was not running. However, because this space station is located in a high orbit, it has not been pulled by the gravity of the small planet below during its operation over the years.

This planet is a satellite of a dead planet without any signs of life, so its gravity is not strong.

"Ten years ago, Edra-Kestis and her master were attacked by interstellar pirates near Salka System. At that time, they were flying a civilian spaceship without any weapons, so they were shot down by the pirates. Everyone at that time They both thought they were dead." Yajin sighed, "But 2 years ago, Edra-Kestis appeared in Nal Hutta, and she was already fallen to the Dark Side."

"When their spaceship crashed, the master rescued her, but she was still captured by the pirates. The pirates sold her to the Serisex Group. Here are the clues we traced. Cyrcexis Group held an auction here and treated Edra as a commodity for public auction." Yajin continued.

Bang! Layun punched the console and growled, "Those bastards!"

"Control your emotions, Layun. I know that you and Edra had a good relationship at the beginning, and you even had some other ideas. But remember, I have reminded you countless times. First, you know that Jedi Order is not allowed. It is not allowed for two Force-sensitive to marry, and Jedi Knight is not allowed to have such feelings. Secondly, Edra is no longer the same as before, and we will kill her if necessary," Yajin said.

"If possible, I want to bring her back to Jedi Order alive." Layun said through gritted teeth.

Yajin sighed, "I volunteered to investigate, not to let you get stuck in the past, but to cut off the past. Love, fear, and anger will all cause power of the Dark Side to corrode your heart. I can't let you follow in the footsteps of Edra."

"My heart has never been so firm, Master." Layun said in a deep voice.

"Let's first find out the reason why Edra fell. There was obviously an accident in this space station. You see, a hole was blown out of the console. You go into the space station and take a look, and I will look for clues on the surface of the satellite." After Yajin finished speaking, he controlled the fighter jet and entered the thin atmosphere of the satellite.

Layun entered the space station from Hangar Platform. It has obviously been evacuated artificially. Such a huge space station, and it is used as a luxury villa, has no value. The cost of moving or dismantling is very high, so it is better to throw it away directly.

After a search, the masters and apprentices Yajin and Layun finally found clues in the control center that had a gap blown out.

Layun found a piece of fiber from a twisted piece of metal. This should be a piece of cloth torn from a woman's clothing. There was a mutilated card inside the piece of cloth.

"This thing is... wait a minute, an information card? K0-T7, scan it for me." Layun took the card and asked his navigation robot to scan and analyze it through remote communication.

Soon, he got the result, "Fourth Group? Fourth Group is involved in this auction? What is their relationship with Cyrcexis Group?"

The voice of Yajin came from the communication, "I also found the wreckage of many spacecrafts on the satellite. There were battles here. Why are Fourth Group and Cyrcexis Group related? I asked Master Coleman to help us go to the Commerce Department to check."

Layun, who was investigating the space station, suddenly saw something floating in the distance through the porthole window. He lifted the Force and looked into the distance, only to find that it was a B-1 combat robot!

He did not call his master, but returned to Hangar Platform, got on his Delta-7 fighter jet, chased after the wreckage of the B-1 combat robot, and used a tractor beam to drag it back to the space station.

"This robot is still intact, but it has no energy." In the hangar, Layun looked at the robot and thought, "K0-T7, try to activate it."

The navigation robot stretched out a small mechanical arm, inserted it into the charging card slot of the B-1 robot, and began to release electrical energy with a pop.

The B-1 robot immediately began to move, but due to lack of power, its movements were very weak. It said in a broken voice, "Goods... sent... Socho... Lun planet..."

"Sojourn Planet?" Layun returned to the fighter cockpit and looked up the name on the star map, but the result was blank.

At this time, Yakin sent a message, "Master Coleman helped us go to the Ministry of Commerce to check. According to the data records of the Ministry of Commerce, the Fourth Group has no relationship with the Serisaks Group. However, 10 years ago, a mysterious amount of money was transferred to the Serisaks Group, and then this The group held a board of directors election, and the reason for the election was the accidental death of the original director. The source of the money... it seems that this is an illegal transaction without registration, and someone is covering up the existence of the transaction."

Yajin thought for a while and continued, "I think some of our clues match up. Edra-Kestis last appeared in Nal Hutta. She More than 700 people from a gang were massacred. This gang had a hostile relationship with a gang leader named Ni Yongxiao, and the man behind Ni Yongxiao was probably Fourth Group."

"So, the fall of Edra may be related to Fourth Group?" Layun was operating quickly on the computer, trying to decipher the data of the B-1 robot, and replying to his master. Although he was multitasking, his movements were still orderly.

"At least we know that Fourth Group participated in the auction and gave Cyrcexis Group a large amount of money after the auction." Yajin said in the communication.

At this time, Layun slammed the keyboard and said loudly, "It's done! Master! I found a planet that does not exist on the star map! Sojourn Planet!!"
