September 4370

Bai Yu and others returned to the supply space station of the Naval Academy and began to search for various items and equipment. When several people were wearing space suits and under weightless conditions, they worked together to remove the life equipment circulation device, the space station was left with only one shell. Bai Yu looked at the things in the cabin with satisfaction and ordered a return. A formation of a cruiser and a destroyer accelerated and jumped into the transition track. A few months later, the supply space station with no ability shield generator was hit by a large warship wreckage and completely disintegrated. The name "Xiaobai" has never appeared, and another "infamous" mercenary organization has risen since then. They call themselves "Black Ace", and the Federal Intelligence Administration calls them "Retired".

After three days of busyness, Bai Yu and others returned to their space station. As soon as they stepped into the space station, they were ready to smell the pissy Bai Yu, but was shocked. The garbage and dirt were cleaned, and the alloy walls were completely cleaned. Although they were not painted, they were covered with a layer of metal maintenance oil. If they didn't look carefully, they thought it was brand new.

"This guy is efficient enough!" Li Deshi exclaimed.

Clautia shook her head: "Can you clean up this section of the airlock gate?"

However, as everyone continued to go deeper, they did not find any differences. Lyon was sitting in the bar, busy with Old Jack. There were many circuit boards piled on the table, and the air was filled with the smell of flux melting when welding circuits were used.

"It's not bad, it's very efficient, I'll praise you once verbally." Bai Yu put down his things and praised.

But before he could think neither Lyon nor Old Jack ignored them and continued the work at hand. Bai Yu walked over and looked at it for a while, and immediately understood how Lyon was alone and cleaned the space station in an orderly manner. He was repairing a small robot, which automatically cleaned the robot at the space station.

Suddenly, Lyon threw away the tool in his hand: "No, it really can't be repaired. How many years have these things been broken? The circuit board is rusted."

"Young man, be patient." Old Jack continued to weld and repair without even raising his head. Although the welding skills were far inferior to Lyon, and the welding points that had finally been welded were extremely ugly, he did not stop his work. A few minutes later, Old Jack embedded the repaired board into the body of the automatic cleaning robot, turned on the switch, and the robot, which looked like a bucket, immediately ran and ran out of the door.

"Oh, you are back, how are you getting it?" Old Jack stood up and asked, moving his back with a little stiffness.

Roy nodded: "It's not bad. The infrastructure has been removed. We even removed the pipes and lines in the repair passage. Oh, Lyon, we have also taken back this thing."

Lyon rolled his eyes and took the electric stove with only empty shells from Roy, and threw it aside in anger.

"Lyon, how do you clean the space station?" Bai Yu asked in surprise.

Lyon nodded: "Yes, otherwise I'm afraid that the garbage has not been cleaned yet, let alone cleaning the walls."

"Yes, where did these robots come from?"

"The pirates left behind were bought and used when they were rich a few years ago. Later, they broke down and no one could repair them, so they were thrown into the warehouse. There were 60. What, the remaining bad ones are so amazing." Old Jack said, pointing at the remaining robots.

"So many, but we walked along the way, why didn't we see any?" Clautiya asked strangely.

"Oh, I asked them to clean the ship berths first. After all, there are no ships now, so it is easier to clean them. Then I go to clean the passages and living areas. By the way, since you are back, just clean up the garbage and pile them up in a container container." Lyon said relaxedly.

Li Deshi volunteered: "I'll go, where are you throwing the garbage container?"

Bai Yu thought for a while: "It's the most convenient way to throw it directly into the gravitational orbit of the star."

Li Des nodded and went out. Old Jack poured a cup of coffee again: "Okay, I'll just help you temporarily and rest your brain. I'm back to the laboratory. Roy, this is what I need, find a way to help me get it as soon as possible."

Roy took the list and took a look: "Okay, I'll give priority to these things."

Bai Yu came over and asked, "What's it?"

"The materials used for the experiment look difficult. When Li Deshi comes back, he will contact the former black market businessman for questions." Roy put the list in front of Bai Yu.

Bai Yu looked at it and was startled: "So many, what are these? This, this is the core of small energy. Isn't this something on the warship? Well, why do he want a super large hard drive? My God! So many! This thing is not cheap."

Roy smiled mysteriously: "Do you want to change your right hand?"

Bai Yu raised his right hand and looked at it: "Why are you changing this? I'm quite satisfied. I've never had a malfunction for such a long time."

"I mean the kind that comes out of the womb." Roy said with a lip of his lips.

Bai Yu was completely confused. Could this old Jack cut off someone's arm and transplant it for him? Before she could ask, Old Jack rushed into the bar and shouted wildly: "Let that person come back..."

Clautia responded, "Li Des."

"No matter who he is! Don't throw away the garbage! My research data!" Old Jack shouted hysterically.

Roy was startled and rushed to the berth of the ship.

Bai Yu shook her head. Roy had never been so panicked. She took out the communicator and said, "Call Li Deshi, please answer when you receive it."

"Li Deshi received it, please speak."

"Have you left the station? You didn't leave the station and stand by on standby, otherwise you will return immediately."

"knew."

Old Jack immediately collapsed on the sofa with his chest covering his chest. Bai Yu glanced at him, and the old man was sweating protruding.

"Old Jack, what happened?" Bai Yu asked.

Old Jack took a long time to slow down before saying slowly: "Those cleaning robots treat everything in my laboratory as garbage..."

Bai Yu immediately looked at Lyon, looking gloating, but Old Jack's next words made everyone present feel like they were struck by lightning: "There is nothing else, but there is a hard disk for data about Cronotechnology, which is not as good as me in the Federal Academy of Sciences."

...

‘Do you want to change your right hand?’

‘I mean the kind that comes out of the womb.’

Roy's words instantly appeared in Bai Yu's ears. Bai Yu's breathing suddenly became rapid. He first looked at Old Jack with a surprised look, then immediately threw Lyon to the ground, waved his full metal fist and shouted: "You kid, accept your fate!"

Speaking of which, Li Deshi had only been out of the station for a few seconds and was preparing to accelerate before the jump. This was his first time to drive a warship alone. The energy core was not completely extinguished. It was enough to restart it. It was not troublesome and there was no need to fight. So he was alone. Although he just flew to the vicinity of the stars and threw away a "trash", it still made him extremely excited. Due to the small staff, Bai Yu ordered everyone to learn the actual operation of various positions of the warship, so Lyon and Li Deshi could basically switch between various positions of the warship.

It was said that Bai Yu and others were lucky. If Li Deshi was not familiar with the operation of the navigator and followed the theory step by step, he would not enter the transition channel. Otherwise, the greatest invention of the entire universe would have entered the "warm" arms of the star with garbage. After receiving the communication, Li Deshi immediately turned around and turned back to the space station. As soon as he left the airlock, he saw Bai Yu and others rushing in, and then opened the garbage container in the cargo compartment. The garbage was dumped out in an instant, forming a hill, emitting a suffocating odor. Bai Yu suddenly roared: "Look!", and everyone jumped into the garbage dump and started to search. Li Deshi was completely stunned. Even if his credit card was lost, he would not have been so desperate! At this time, Old Jack ran over panting and jumped into the garbage dump, muttering: "Hard disk...my...data hard disk..."

Li Deshi understood that it turned out that Old Jack's research data had been lost. He sighed and could only search for it.

Four hours later, amid Clautia's cheers, everyone finally ended this unprecedented garbage search operation. Everyone surrounded the old Jack who covered the data hard drive on his chest and left. Before leaving, Bai Yu ordered Lyon to clean up the cargo hold. Li Des looked at Lyon's pitiful eyes. It seemed that this kid had caused a lot of trouble this time. Li Des smiled and said, "I'm busy, I'll take a shower. It's so... too smelly."

Except for Old Jack, everyone had finished washing. Lyon had just dumped the garbage and was wearing a military coat to scrub the cargo hold floor of the ship in a forced ventilation mode. Bai Yu explicitly told him not to use those terrible 'destructors' anymore.

Bai Yu put a bath towel on his head, and looked at Old Jack's almost empty laboratory, and suddenly shivered. He was really worthy of being a cleaning robot bought by the pirates. Since the most important thing has been found, that's fine. No one would have the courage to enter the garbage dump again.

Bai Yu thought about it and said to Old Jack who sighed at a lonely hard drive, "New, all new."

Old Jack immediately jumped up, grabbed Bai Yu's shoulder, and shook it hard: "Really, what you said is true?"

Bai Yu looked at the snow-white uniform he had just changed into, and the black dirty handprints of old Jack caught on his shoulders, and hurriedly nodded affirmatively.

Only then did Old Jack let go of Bai Yu with relief and went to take a shower happily. Before leaving, he did not forget to bring the data hard drive and let it go into the bathroom with him.

In the bar, Roy looked at Lyon who was sneezing and said, "You sold him, it's not worth an experimental equipment from Old Jack."

Bai Yu didn't care about this. She glanced at Lyon's miserable appearance and decided to let him go: "Who knew that Old Jack was the 'that' dean? I thought he was just a medical major."

Roy shook his head: "That was before. He was the least scientific genius of the Federal Academy of Sciences. He had all kinds of industries and was even good at it. The 425mm rail naval gun installed on the battleship was improved. Not to mention the range, the rate of fire increased to 6 times. He even proposed the limit curve diagram for overloading of rail guns at all levels, so that the rail guns overloading and using them has entered a well-documented era of standardization, not to mention his greatest C. echo technology."

"That's how..." Bai Yu suddenly laughed.

Everyone was very surprised, and Li Deshi said with a frown: "You can still laugh. Just the little money in our hands and the food expenses for next month, I don't know where to come from!"

"Today is our lucky day. Think about it, if we invest a lot of money in Old Jack, wouldn't it be equivalent to the direct support of the Federal Academy of Sciences, various new weapons and new ships..." Bai Yu said with a smile.

Li Deshi rolled his eyes: "Talking about money first, it's useless to have no money. Even if you let me run the black market, you have to have some capital, and that's not something that can happen overnight."

Bai Yu shook his head with a smile: "If you don't have the capital, we will go to a business that is not worth it."

Roy was jumped when he heard this: "You are not going to be a pirate, are you? The profits of robbing a merchant ship are indeed considerable, but..."

"I didn't say robbing merchant ships. We are going to rob pirates. It's not illegal to rob pirates who rob merchant ships." Bai Yu said in a shocking way.

"That's right, but the pirates robbed others of the things they came to take, what should they do?" Clautia asked worriedly.

"Buy it yourself and price it at the cost, otherwise we will take it away. Anyway, we are robbing pirates, which is spoiled. There is something to say wherever we sue it. At worst, let 4418 be dealt with." Bai Yu said unreasonably.

Roy hesitated, "I'm still worried..."

Bai Yu immediately interrupted: "Worry about the supplies for next month. If the pirates had some inventory, we would have almost implemented a rationing system. Everyone thinks clearly, either go to rob the pirates or go to the Federal Intelligence Administration to "fight the autumn wind."

Li Deshi has not been studying bad things for a long time, so he doesn’t understand: “What does ‘Fighting Qiu Feng’ mean?”

"Blow out."

"A big eater."

"Friend free... sneeze!"

June 4372, Serenity Star Domain, Issel Galaxy, Retired Space Station

After less than two years of crazy robbery, the Ning Jing Star Realm has become no longer peaceful. The pirates in the entire Star Realm know that there is such a group of people fighting for business with them. The most devastating thing is that the cruiser painted with a black playing card is robbing himself everywhere. As long as you just rob the merchant ship, this terrifying cruiser will immediately emerge from a dark corner. Open your mouth and say that you are extremely familiar with: 'Stop the ship, stop the fire, rob!'

Putting aside the disgust and awkwardness in the pirates' hearts, the strange rules of this cruiser are well known. We only have half of the things you robbed, and you can take away the others. Of course, some people are not convinced, but they are all convinced by these "pirates" who robbed pirates. If you have few people, they will wipe out you mercilessly. If you have too many people, they will turn around and leave. But there are always times when you are alone. There was a large pirate group that ran into this cruiser just after the robbery was finished.

The pirate group almost burst into laughter, and the cruiser turned around and left without saying a word, as if it was just a joke just now, but when the pirates made another vote, they returned to their homes with satisfaction, and were all stupid. Their space station was blown up like a beehive, and all the brothers inside were dead. The warehouse was moved out, and even a frigate that was about to be scrapped was towed away. In the most conspicuous position, there was a black ace on the back, and...and...the local fleet came...

From then on, the pirates were trembling, not afraid of touching the Shanghai Army, but afraid of encountering this cruiser that was even more pirates than pirates. It is said that some pirates decided to leave the quiet star field and go to a "safe" place to develop, while others cried and started a legitimate industry. The rest... could only keep the things honestly. Anyway, they only had half of them, and they were disgusted and headaches, and they would not die.

What is more disgusting and more troublesome than pirates is the local fleet of the Federal Navy. They have only recently learned that there are still people in this industry, but no one knows where they came from. I heard that some of the robbed merchant ships want to return the goods, so they politely talked about the price. And as long as the cost is, the merchant ships can buy them with cash or ships. If they don’t want to, then please ignore you and turn around and leave.

If it was just a merchant ship, the problem was not big, just write a report. After all, it was the pirates who robbed the merchant ship, not the weird cruiser. But even the supply ships of the army encountered this situation, we must not ignore it. Although the local fleet was declining, the navy still had to face it. Just when they wanted to set up a trap to encircle this cruiser painted with "black ace", the Federal Intelligence Administration issued an order through the local navy's sub-military command to "hide that cruiser away". It was quite undesirable. Of course, the navy would not swallow this breath. They began to plan the surround operation secretly, but no one could catch it, and the cruiser had not even fired a single shot from beginning to end, like a ghost.

As a result, all kinds of legends began to prevail, and pirates began to believe in the "black ace", believing that it was transformed by the wronged souls of pirates, and they could not stand the pirates' depravity, so they appeared and taught everyone the "rules". What rules? When robbing, they would leave half of them, and they could not fish out of the waters, and they had to leave a way out for others. This is the rule, the rule of pirates.

Some pirates began to implement this rule half-believingly. What's strange is that any pirate who did this had never seen the cruiser again.

The navy simply ignores it and doesn't chase it, otherwise it's just a pirate. When people see you, they don't even open the cannon, and the ships are so coquettish and flexible in evasion. They even deliberately take you around their jurisdiction, as if they know where you are located. Isn't this looking down on people! Just pretend not to see it, and don't be upset.

Merchants found that the waterways in the quiet star field were much safer. As long as you don’t resist, the pirates would never hurt people. They would also settle the accounts carefully and leave half of the goods. If it happened to be odd, the pirates would politely ask you to stay. Some pirates even knew that they had been robbed once and would leave immediately, as if their merchant fleet was unlucky.

Bai Yu sat in the bar of the retired space station, bored to death. Roy smiled and asked, "Will you go to Qiufeng today?"

"If you don't go, the pirates in the entire Qingxing Star Domain are pitiful. They have worked hard, followed, eavesdropped, and set up ambush, but they can't get much." Bai Yu said depressedly: "Another like this, we can only go to the next star domain to 'fight the autumn wind'."

"It's not you, I have to leave half of it for others, but the pirates have followed this rule. Have you heard that pirates robbed merchant ships and cannot hurt people, but they still have to leave half of it? They are all so scared that we can rob half of it, how much oil can we have!" Lyon said dissatisfiedly with a cigarette in his mouth.
To be continued...
