Star Wars: The Silver Pledge

Chapter 16 The Right Way to Threat

Xia Jing's specialty spirits, a wine cup the size of a fingertip is enough to be intoxicating. Mostima's glass of spirits can be said to be full of sincerity in the culture of the dry galaxy.

However, at the moment when the Jedi Master was about to drink the wine in the glass, something happened.

"Ho... vomit."

Nan Qianyu suddenly made a strange sound of dyspnea and nausea, his face turned livid in an instant, and his eyeballs were bloodshot. In just a moment, he seemed inhuman.

Mostima's eyes became sharp all of a sudden, she put down her wine glass and came to Nan Qianyu.

Sean took the wine glass at the right time, and a small mechanical arm stretched out from the mechanical ring on his wrist. A probe was inserted into the wine, and an alarm sounded instantly.

Nan Qianyu's face inflated rapidly like a balloon, and weird tumors continued to grow and spread on his face. He struggled and said, "Sure enough, you want to kill people to silence them."

Mostima ignored his misunderstanding, but seriously considered how to rescue him.

She has quite profound medical attainments, but even so, this Jedi master couldn't judge what kind of poison Nan Qianyu had been poisoned for a while, and how to treat it properly. She tried to borrow the Force, but was interrupted by a shrill siren.

Mostima was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Sean.

Sean also immediately put down his wine glass, no longer trying to analyze the toxins in the wine, but took out the communication ring and the adapter purchased on the passenger ship, and connected to the galaxy intranet.

Seeing the emergency news, Xiao En's expression changed: "Master, the situation is not right, the incident of Nan Qianyu's poisoning has already been on the news, and the police came so fast!"

Mostima said, "Sean, prepare to implement the plan."

"Yes, Master."

The Jedi masters and apprentices have never taken this task lightly, and they have deduced enough plans long before they arrived in Xia Jing.

And almost at the same time, a group of armed policemen in black police armor approached with small steps. Several blasters painted black pointed at the Jedi master and apprentice: "Don't move!"

"Hands up and behind your head!"

"Squat in the corner!"

"We are the Xiajing police!"

Shouting all the way, the team of police officers with guns rushed in all the way.

Sean looked at these policemen, and his heart was cold: These policemen, whether they were armed or moved, all showed the character of elite, but they were all just discarded pieces on the chessboard.

The person who set up the trap should be very clear that the opponent is a Jedi, so it is impossible not to know that a mere team of policemen with guns cannot do anything to the opponent.

Even in this small private room of the bar, even if Mostima himself didn't make a move, Sean alone could knock down all the policemen present with his lightsaber.

But that's what the people behind the scenes wanted: a dignified Jedi warrior poisoned Nan Qianyu, the interim patriarch of the Nan family, in Xiajing, the capital of the Qian galaxy, and openly slaughtered the Xiajing police after the incident...

At that time, the Jedi master and apprentice will not be able to argue with each other, and will be accused by thousands of people. The Republic no longer has to count on Gan Galaxy to be its own family.

It's a pity that these policemen underestimated the ability of the Jedi.

Facing the policeman with guns, Mostima said softly, "Put down the guns and call your people in charge."

The next moment, the seven policemen in this team showed confusion on their faces, put down their blaster guns at the same time, and murmured: "Yes, Director Xia should indeed be invited here."

Hearing Director Xia's words, Mostima frowned slightly, and from the corner of his vision, he also began to frown when he saw Xiao En.

Director Xia, judging from Xia Jing's public information, it is likely to be Xia Yan, the director of the Security Bureau of the Qiankun Group.

As a senior executive of the group, he is only one step away from the board of directors. The security bureau under him is in charge of the safety of hundreds of billions of people in the Qian galaxy. It is needless to describe his distinguished status.

Such a big man directly commanding the frontline police?

Sean's heart moved, and he had some thoughts, so he took half a step forward, preparing to induce the policeman to say more.

Although his application of the Force is not as good as his master's, and he can't make many people lose their minds with a snap of his fingers, he is still able to control one person with ease.

Unfortunately, just before Sean had time to act, there was another rush of footsteps in the corridor.

Compared with the policeman who broke through the door, the man's footsteps were heavier and more steady. Just based on the sound, a resolute and upright figure appeared in Xiao En's mind.

The Lord has come.

So Xiao En didn't try to embarrass a low-level policeman again, and when Xia Yan came, he just asked questions from his mouth.

This is not a manor lurking, and they must be conclusive and innocent in terms of legal principles, so they don't need to be so restrained, it is best to ask the truth directly from the other party.

However, at the next moment, Xia Yan was wearing light armor and striding in with a sneer, and the moment he walked in, Mostima reached out to stop Xiao En.

Of course, Sean himself knew that the original plan would be scrapped.

When Xia Yan, the head of the group's Security Bureau who is in charge of the safety of hundreds of billions of people, walked in, three red dots lit up on the back of his head. And the first thing he said was: "If I have any signs of being hypnotized, the sniper will immediately blow my head off, and then you will be murderers."

Xiao En was taken aback when he heard the words: This posture is really unique and catches people's attention first. This made it clear that the Jedi had been regarded as an imaginary enemy for a long time, and the master and apprentice's plan might be invalidated.

Glancing over from the corner of the corner of the eye, I saw that the master was also silent, thinking of a workaround, and Xiao En casually bought time for her.

"If you really want to be a deterrent, you should install miniature bombs on your body and find someone to remotely control the switch. It is safer than a sniper rifle."

But seeing that Xia Yan didn't say a word, he just ignored the technical problem raised by Xiao En, glanced around the room, and said in a cold voice: "I knew that the Republic and the Jedi were uneasy and kind to the Qiankun Group, but I didn't expect that they would be so arrogant that they would dare to kill people in the capital." To such an extent, you are worthy of being the executioner of the Republic."

Xiao En heard the words, and asked the master again: "Is this memorizing manuscripts?"

Mostima watched Director Xia coldly, and responded, "Obviously. But being able to write these words into a manuscript shows that the other party has planned for a long time, maybe it was from the moment we boarded the ship, or maybe it was in Nanning. The moment He Li died, and maybe even Nan Heli's vision before his death, it was to guard against him and the people behind him..."

Before Master Jedi finished speaking, Xia Yan's face finally changed slightly. He waved his hand, and the surrounding policemen were a little surprised, but they all retreated.

In the small private room of this bar, there are only three living people and one dead person left.

The Jedi master and apprentice were not in a hurry to take action, because the light spot on the back of Xia Yan's head was still there, but there was no one around, so he could speak freely.

Xia Yan said: "Master Mostima, since the Republic knows that Nan Heli's death is of great importance, why is it so anxious to get involved? The Qiankun Group has lived peacefully with the Republic for many years. Is it necessary to make a life of twists and turns for a mere one person?"

Mostima said: "The death of one person is not of great importance. Your words are contradictory. What's more, there are more than one dead now."

Sean said, "I suggest you read it from the script."

An angry flush appeared on Xia Yan's face, but he suppressed his anger and said, "Leave now, we can pretend nothing happened."

"If not, are you going to pour dirty water on the Jedi Order?" Mastema asked.

Xia Yan said bluntly: "If not, all the crimes committed by the Republic in the Qiankun Group will be made public, and the hundreds of billions of people in the Qiang galaxy will see it clearly."

Mostima said: "I'm afraid that if we really leave like this, the evidence of conspiracy to kill will be confirmed."

Xia Yan said with a straight face: "The evidence has long been conclusive, the only difference is whether it is published or not."

While talking, he walked to the wine table, picked up the ornament with recording function on the table, and said: "This chest ornament records the conversation with Nan Qianyu after you entered the golden scale room. In the recording, Nan Qianyu will suspect that Nan Heli's death is related to the Jedi, and state a lot of relevant evidence, and then he will die of poison, and before he dies, he will insist that the Jedi master and apprentice are the murderers."

Sean recalled the previous conversation, and suddenly asked: "A record of the conversation taken out of context?"

"However, if any third party listens to it, the two of you can't argue with it. Especially since this thing belongs to the deceased Nan Qianyu himself, no one will believe that Tangtang Nan's family will use their own lives to frame you. Therefore, your criminal evidence has been There is no doubt about it.”

Xia Yan held the pectoral in his hand, with an expression as if he was holding a winning ticket, but Xiao En couldn't help laughing out: "Ha, then please broadcast the undeniable evidence of the crime, sir."

Xia Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, but felt a little unbelievable. He crushed the decoration, took out a chip from it, and put it in a groove of the arm armor.

The next moment, a melodious music sounded from the arm armor. As for the dialogue that should have appeared, there was no one sentence.

Sean couldn't help touching his wrist. Previously, when Mostima performed the supernatural power of flicking fingers, he actually performed a unique skill-taking Nan Qianyu's attention away, he destroyed the voice record in the chip with the help of micro-machines.

This is purely a matter of preparedness and behavior.

Regarding this, Xia Yan was silent for a long time, and gritted his teeth: "The evidence of the crime was destroyed without knowing it. The Jedi's methods are indeed brilliant, but with such arrogance and perverting the law, do you really think that the Qiankun Group is afraid of the Jedi Order?!"

Sean asked sincerely, "Are you really not even afraid of the Jedi?"

Xia Yan's face was gloomy and cold, and he didn't say a word.

Mostima couldn't help laughing at the side.

Sean really asked a good question: Is the Qiankun Group afraid of the Jedi Order? Of course I was afraid! If you are not afraid, why did the security chief of Tangtang Group come here with 3 sniper rifles to negotiate with their master and apprentice? Why treat Nan Qianyu, the director of Nanming Capital, as an abandoned son to frame and stigmatize the Jedi?

It is precisely because he is still afraid of the prestige of the Jedi deep in his heart that he will use these tricks, snipe on the head, and pretend to be tough.

But the Jedi Master quickly restrained his smile, because the status quo was still not optimistic.

Although the link of the pectoral was cleverly deciphered, it had no real impact on the overall situation. Judging from the current situation, the opponent of the Jedi master and apprentice is likely to be the behemoth Qiankun Group, and the scale of the group's layout far exceeds expectations, and the method of planting and framing must be more than one pectoral.

They could use transcripts of conversations taken out of context as incriminating evidence, so it wouldn't be surprising if a recording was fabricated out of thin air. The Qiankun Group does not need to convince everyone, it only needs to convince the locals of the Qian galaxy.

The biggest difference between this galaxy and Bergamore is that the Qiankun Group has indeed controlled hundreds of billions of people. After thousands of years of rule, the foundation of the group in this galaxy is unbreakable.

As for the situation in the republic, the situation is even more delicate. The indifference for so many years does not mean that the parliament is really alienated from the Qiankun Group. On the contrary, the more indifferent it is, the easier it is for the parliament to tolerate it. What I have seen along the way, whether it is the extraordinary design structure on the passenger ship or the robot at the customs gate whose technology is far beyond the local level, all prove that the Qiankun Group has received special treatment—on the other hand, the dictator of Bergamoor wants to eat To order Coruscant delicacies, you must rely on [Opera Trade].

The only thing that can balance the situation is that the Qiankun Group is still afraid of the prestige of the Jedi after all.

So Mastema asked, "Are you really ready to frame a Jedi Master?"

Facing the indifferent question of a Jedi master, Xia Yan suddenly felt an unspeakable heavy pressure in his heart. He was silent for a long time, and said in a gentle tone: "As far as I know, the Jedi has never been an upright law enforcement officer. You often play the role of diplomats and travel to various places, and you are best at weighing the pros and cons and making overall considerations..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mostima: "Don't misinterpret the meaning of the Jedi. Whether you weigh the pros and cons or consider the whole thing, it will not become a reason to distort the truth and encourage evil."

Xia Yan said: "The two of you should have a preliminary understanding of the results of the Qiankun Group's dominance in the Qian galaxy. There may be flaws of one kind or another, but this prosperity is real. Counting, there are not many galaxies that are more powerful than Qiankun, without the Qiankun Group, there would be no peaceful life for these hundreds of billions of people."

"If the Qiankun Group is shaken, the peace of these hundreds of billions of people will be broken immediately. If the two of you want to shake the rule of the Qiankun Group for the sake of the death of two people, it is to put your personal morality above the well-being of the hundreds of billions of people. superior."

Mostima said: "If the Qiankun Group really intends to negotiate seriously with us, then when we set foot on the land of Xiajing, what we saw should not be a despicable poisoning and framing. This kind of ruler You are not qualified to kidnap the well-being of hundreds of billions of people in the galaxy, if you are replaced, these hundreds of billions of people may be able to live better."

Having said that, Xia Yan no longer tried to persuade: "Alright, let's follow the procedure. The two of you are suspected of murdering Nan Qianyu, and the Xia Jing police will arrest you according to law. Of course, you are Jedi knights, so you can rely on Resisting arrest by force, killing seven in and seven out of the crowd."

Xia Yan continued: "There are only dozens of heavily armed police officers and a dozen combat drones here. If the rumors about the Jedi are true, then after a bloody battle, most of these heroic police officers will be wiped out. And under the fierce battle, hundreds of innocent people in the bar will also suffer heavy casualties. At that time, these blood debts will naturally fall on your heads!"

Sean couldn't help being shocked when he heard this.

Hundreds of innocent people? This person is so cruel that he used hundreds of human lives as bargaining chips, just to frame them, the Jedi master and apprentice! ?

Mostima said, "I believe you can do this kind of thing. But I have a question, since you are so serious about human life, why didn't you just bomb us while we were on the air taxi taxi, or even before that? Wouldn't it be more convenient to kill us and announce to the Republic that this was an accident?"

Xia Yan sneered and remained silent.

If the problem could be solved that easily, he would have arranged for someone to plant the bomb long ago! However, the other party is a Jedi Knight after all, and one of them is also a Jedi Master!

Let the well-known Jedi Master die in the capital of the Qian galaxy for no reason, and then wait for the peacekeeping fleet of the Ministry of Justice of the Republic to overwhelm the border? Waiting for the Jedi Order to send more elite forces to thoroughly investigate the truth?

In fact, for Xia Yan, this whole conspiracy has a very absurd aspect: Qiankun Group does everything possible to frame and target this pair of Jedi masters and apprentices, but Qiankun Group does not want this pair of Jedi masters and apprentices to die more than anyone else.

At the same time, Mostima also smiled: "Yeah, you don't want us to die."

Xia Yan couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, a trace of inexplicable anxiety arose in his heart.

Everything is progressing smoothly according to the plan. The pair of Jedi masters and apprentices have been driven into a desperate situation, and there is no way out. The dry galaxy left in disgrace. And the truth will always be covered up under the falsified history.

Of course, if they were really stupid enough to resist with force... No, it should be said, if they were really the kind and righteous Jedi Knights rumored to be, they would be so stupid that they would not resist with force anyway.

This is also the fundamental reason why Xia Yan dared to threaten with a sniper rifle on his head.

He has played the trick of bullying goodness too many times, and he has never missed it!

However, the smile on Jedi Master's face and the words in his mouth made Xia Yan still feel uneasy.

He tried to calm down and said in an oppressive tone: "Your life and death depend on you, if you are willing to be obedient..."

Before he finished speaking, the woman suddenly lifted the brown cloak and pressed her palm to her chest.

"Yes, my life depends only on myself, and I think it's time to return to the embrace of the Force."

Xiao En was shocked when he saw this: "Master?!"

The woman's palm was spotless, and her slender fingers seemed unable to contain any strength. However, under her guidance, the powerful force is already surging like raging waves.

One burst and the Jedi Master's heart would be crushed to pieces on the spot.

The Jedi apprentice was confused, and subconsciously wanted to pull the master's arm to stop her actions.

However, in front of the Jedi Master's vast ocean-like force, Sean was completely unable to move. And looking at the master's eyes that became deeper and deeper, he finally understood the master's intention.

The master wants to sacrifice himself to break this deadlock, in order to protect the innocent people who are unknowingly taken hostage, and to protect the still immature Jedi apprentices.

In an instant, Sean's body couldn't help trembling slightly, and his vision became blurred.

Although the practice of the Jedi rejects all pleasures in the world, there is probably no one in this world who loves life more than the Jedi Knights.

So Xiao En simply couldn't understand, what kind of mind and consciousness Master used to ignore her own life like this!

Mostima glanced at his apprentice and said, "Sean, death is not the end, don't be sad about it."

Sean bowed his head speechlessly.

But hearing the conversation between master and apprentice, Xia Yan's eyes gradually widened, only feeling that his heart was gradually freezing.

Even if he knew nothing about the Force, he understood what Mastema wanted to do.

A burst of unimaginable coolness came to his heart, causing the chief of security to take a few steps back, and the three light spots that were originally locked behind his head also became messy.

Xia Yan couldn't understand the other party's choice at all.

Impossible, how could...why? ! is this necessary?

For a high-ranking figure like the Jedi Master, everything that happened in the dry galaxy is nothing more than an insignificant political conspiracy in the fringes! Your life is a hundred times more precious than these! Wasn't your performance just now very shrewd and sharp? In the end, can't you even do such a simple trade-off?

Xia Yan wanted to yell out a thousand words, but facing the Jedi Master's eyes that seemed to see everything, the security chief couldn't say a word for a while.

After a while, I heard Sean say in a hoarse voice: "If the master really dies here, no matter how elaborate your reasoning is, it will never stand. The Republic and the Jedi Order will not stand idly by. Among the Knights There are countless people who are better than our masters and apprentices, I hope you can use tricks to fool them all!"

The young apprentice's anger engulfed Xia Yan like its essence, completely breaking down the security chief's psychological defense.

Xia Yan lowered his head, his body was trembling with extreme anger and humiliation, he squeezed out a sneer amid the clenched teeth and the sound of clenched teeth.

"I've heard that the Jedi Knights are a bunch of idiots, but I didn't expect you to be even more stupid than the rumors say!"

Then, he tightened his voice and asked, "Tell me, what conditions do you want?"
