Chapter 1068 It's just swatting mosquitoes, why are you so surprised?
Old Qin was skeptical, but he bent down, lifted the lid of the cardboard box, and peeked inside. He was instantly stunned by what he saw.
The cardboard box was crammed full of various documents and reports, with the titles of the top few clearly visible:
A proposal for exploring a new scientific research paradigm based on distributed collaborative computing and modular architecture, and for tackling key technological challenges (Naval version).
A preliminary concept based on a teardrop-shaped hull design combined with a sail rudder and a cruciform tail rudder.
An improved scheme for screen coordinate pickup based on photoelectric conversion principle (joint proposal).
A microstructure transformation prediction and control map based on the continuous cooling process of supercooled austenite...
Damn, I recognize each of the individual characters, but I can't understand them when they're put together!
Unconvinced, Lao Qin reached down and pulled out a document. The cover read: "A micro-displacement correction device based on the principle of manual hydraulic servo..."
Hey, I can understand this one!
After putting down the documents, Lao Qin felt a tickle in his head. He reached up and scratched it, and a strange chill ran through him.
"What is all this nonsense..." Old Qin's heart pounded, and a sense of foreboding welled up inside him.
Jiangxia's scope of involvement is too broad, isn't it?
Although I don't understand it, but...
This is hardly an ordinary, somewhat talented young technician.
This is clearly a...
monster!
Moreover, judging from the signatures and wording of these documents, the level of importance and reliance placed on them by the base far exceeded his previous estimates.
Moreover, this is only the assessment of the Navy's work!
I heard this kid went on a trip to Northeast China!
For a moment, Lao Qin even wavered a little. Had he, Vice Minister Qiu behind him, and even the "big shot" behind the Vice Minister, kicked an unimaginable iron plate?
Is it really wise to provoke a young man like this?
But the die was cast, and the mission had to be carried out. Old Qin composed himself, closed the box, and personally carried it towards the armored vehicle parked at the end of the tree-lined path.
He needs to report to Minister Qiu immediately; these "accidentally" discovered information need to be assessed right away!
However, what Lao Qin didn't know was that shortly after he left the archives with the box, an encrypted message had already been transmitted through a highly secretive channel within the base.
Upon receiving the message, Old Wang rushed over like a bear discovering its territory had been invaded.
Although Lao Wang pedaled his old bicycle so hard it was practically sparking, he was still a step too late. By the time he reached the tree-lined path, all he saw was Lao Qin bending over and getting into the armored vehicle, the door about to close.
In the blink of an eye, Lao Wang didn't think much about more complicated ways to deal with it. In his mind, the most direct and effective way to deal with these "secret thieves" was to stop them from taking away the data!
He pulled out a "soda bottle" that still smelled of the sea from his military green satchel with a red star on it, unscrewed the protective case, lit the fuse, and smashed it at the armored vehicle!
Thus, the explosive scene at the beginning occurred.
At that moment, the armored vehicle's roof was pushed open from the inside, and Vice Minister Qiu leaned out with a livid face. Although the people inside the vehicle were somewhat dizzy and disoriented from the explosion, thanks to the armor protection, no one was injured.
However, the pungent smell of gunpowder entering his nasal cavity only added to Vice Minister Qiu's irritability.
He saw that Lao Wang and Xiao Liu had already approached, and then looked at the fresh scratches on the side of the car and the flat tire. He frowned with heartache, and then his anger flared up!
But then, by the light of the car headlights and the streetlights in the distance, he could see clearly Old Wang's face, which was full of fat and looked particularly fierce with anger.
This face... looks familiar.
No, it's not just a little familiar, it looks extremely familiar!
In a flash, Vice Minister Qiu remembered! Wasn't this the famous eldest son of Minister Wang of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications?
How did he end up in Darian?
In an instant, Vice Minister Qiu's anger was somewhat diluted by a more complex emotion, and even a strange, twisted "surprise" welled up within him.
Surprisingly, this reckless kid actually dared to throw a grenade at his own car!
The good news is... this is Minister Wang's son!
That Minister Wang who controls the nation's communications network and mouthpiece!
The "tiger with wings" behind Vice Minister Qiu has always coveted the lucrative postal and telecommunications system—no, he has been eyeing the vital information and communication network that connects the upper and lower levels of government.
We've all come from the flames of war; who doesn't know the weight of the word "information"?
The significance of controlling or exerting sufficient influence over the telephone lines and telegraph network leading to the highest points is self-evident.
Unfortunately, Minister Wang was an upright man who enjoyed the trust of many. He had always been at odds with the "tiger" faction, and they were completely resistant to his advances.
If we can take this opportunity...
A bold and insidious idea rapidly took root in Vice Minister Qiu's mind: Wang Kui's attack on the vehicle of a senior leader was based on conclusive evidence and was extremely serious in nature!
If we can seize this leverage and use it to blackmail Minister Wang, even if it's just to get him to "do us a favor" in certain areas or force him to remain silent on certain issues, the gains would be immeasurable!
Even opening just a crack is enough for the big shots behind the scenes to make some moves!
This is not trouble at all; it is clearly a golden opportunity to gain access to the "meritorious service of supporting the emperor"!
Thinking of this, Vice Minister Qiu's anger subsided slightly, and he even managed a strange smile that mixed with lingering fear and calculation. He pointed at Old Wang, his voice trembling with excitement and calculation:
"Wang Kui! It's you! You're lawless!"
He deliberately raised his voice: "How dare you attack the commander's vehicle! Are you trying to rebel?!"
"Let me tell you! You've really messed up! You've really gotten yourself into big trouble! Even if your father came, he couldn't save you! This must be dealt with seriously!"
"but……"
When the word "however" appeared, Vice Minister Qiu's angry expression faltered, and the corners of his mouth even involuntarily twitched upwards.
"Comrade Wang Kui, your actions were extremely wrong and of a very serious nature! But it's not too late to turn back now, as long as you..."
however,
The upward curve of his lips had not yet fully unfolded into a smile.
"Bang--!!!"
A deafening roar, so violent it was almost deafening, shattered the tranquility of the night.
The gunshots were extremely violent, like thunderclaps from a clear sky, shaking the leaves of the trees on both sides of the avenue!
A blast of scorching heat, accompanied by the pungent smell of gunpowder, suddenly exploded out!
It's a gun!
It's a large-caliber pistol!
It was a revolver with an exaggerated design and a thick barrel that Wang Kui had somehow raised in his hand!
Time seemed to freeze for a moment.
Vice Minister Qiu's expression froze, and the smile that hadn't yet faded turned into extreme fear and bewilderment.
Vice Minister Qiu felt a scorching hurricane sweep across his right cheek, his skin burning painfully, and a buzzing sound in his ears, making the whole world go silent for a moment.
He stood frozen in place, and after a few seconds, he felt his legs begin to tremble uncontrollably, and his bladder tighten in waves.
Vice Minister Qiu subconsciously raised his hand to touch his cheek. He didn't feel any blood, but the burning sensation and fear of brushing past death were so real that his whole body went limp.
"You...you actually...shot me!"
Old Wang held the oversized revolver, a veritable weapon, steadily, wisps of smoke still rising from the muzzle. He grinned maliciously, revealing a set of white teeth that looked rather sinister in the dim light.
"(＾u＾)ノ~yo! Sorry, this thing is too powerful and has a strong recoil. My hand shook a little and it went a bit off course."
"Of course I wasn't aiming at you, I was just swatting mosquitoes..."
Is it crooked?
Killing mosquitoes?
