In the outskirts of the capital city of Southern Galilee on planet S2, there was a heavily guarded Special Level Three Class A military prison. Two days ago, hundreds of serious-looking members of the Federation Investigation Bureau were stationed here with the authorization documents of the Ministry of Defense. The black suits that were flashing at the checkpoints of countless rooms replaced the dark green military uniforms, which made the people in the prison feel extremely depressed.
Three days before the Federation Investigation Bureau took over this military prison, a prisoner mysteriously disappeared. No one knew how this prisoner left the Special Level Three Class A military prison. Even the Bureau of Proclamation lost the specific location of this person's identity chip, but there was no feedback that the information node disappeared.
The investigation team appointed by President Pabre followed the footsteps of the Federation Investigation Bureau to this prison. The internal affairs officer of the Iron Seventh Division from the Second Military Region increased the intensity of the investigation of the prison under the cold command of President Du Shaoqing.
The prisoners in the prison were all gathered in the side area. The cells that they used to live in became the prison's hell. From time to time, angry roars, curses, and screams could be heard from the third floor of the prison.
As many as seven hundred government employees and officers turned this prison into a surprisingly large interrogation room. They used all kinds of legal methods, but they still couldn't find any clues. The Federation's investigation of the attack on the Ancient Bell Ship and its efforts to find the hidden seed fell into a helpless halt.
At this moment, countless pairs of anxious and angry eyes didn't notice a small forest 13 kilometers to the right of the prison. Under the simple building of the forest, there was a hidden underground fortification. At the end of the fortification, there was a dark room without any light or electronic equipment.
The dim light of the primitive incandescent lamp shone on the rough stone walls of the room. The light gradually gathered to the side of the bed in the corner of the room, revealing a thin, pale, and desperate face.
He had a very common name: He Youyou. He was thirty-six years old this year. He entered the Second Military Academy at the age of seventeen. After graduation, he had been working in the military intelligence department. Although the information he came in contact with was top secret and somewhat mysterious to the general public, this kind of work would become ordinary and boring after a long time.
However, He Youyou was not dissatisfied. He liked the breakfast sold outside the electronic code station building. He was used to the smell of disinfectant and light curtain glue in the building. Not to mention, when he was thirty years old, he fell in love with a waitress in the logistics department of the building.
He had a gentle and kind wife, a daughter who was just four years old but still waited for him with a sweet smile and slippers every day. He had an ordinary but stable, and indeed meaningful job. He Youyou was satisfied enough with this life.
He Youyou had always thought so, until one day more than a year ago, when he was driving home, he was suddenly stopped by a group of soldiers and arrested. Then, he learned the truth that was like a thunderclap.
He Youyou was a seed that was planted in the Federation.
…
…
He Youyou was from the Empire? No, this is such a ridiculous prank. I was born in the S2 industrial base, and my parents only gave birth to me when they were in their forties. I have countless childhood friends and teachers who know of my existence, and you actually say that I'm from the Empire?
Adoption certificate? No, I don't believe it. Biological markers? That's fake! What are you trying to do? I'm just a very ordinary officer. I don't have anything you want on me. Why must you accuse me of being from the Empire?
More than a year ago, when He Youyou heard this ridiculous accusation, his first reaction was this. That absurd feeling of astonishment turned into hysteria. This made him, who was considered to be extremely cowardly in the military academy, actually dare to ignore the gun barrels in the hands of those wardens. He angrily swung his fist and smashed it towards the brown-haired officer's face across the wide interrogation table.
However, he did not hit the other party. Instead, he was smashed to the ground by the cold butt of the gun.
After waking up from his coma, facing the detailed records of the Bureau of Proclamation and the iron-clad evidence, He Youyou finally admitted to a certain fact in despair and frustration.
Many years ago, the Empire took the risk of using a small spaceship to forcefully cross the space channel and transport a few batches of babies into Bermuda. Then, through the notorious human traffickers of Bermuda, they were sold to the Federation. They were sold to parents who did not have children but longed for them. These innocent and childish babies, who were even sleeping with their eyes closed, passed the examination of the charter and received a legal adoption certificate. An identity chip was implanted behind their necks. Without them knowing, they turned from being from the Empire to … citizens of the Federation.
And he was one of these babies.
…
…
I was originally from the Empire. Then, when I cheered for every victory of the Federal Army on the front lines of the West Woods, was I actually celebrating the death of my own people? My life was all fake. An ordinary name, an ordinary job, a stable and happy life … They were all fake. Then, what was real?
He Youyou, who could not accept this fact, became an ice sculpture that could not think. In just three days, his face became so thin that his bones could be seen. He knew that the Federation would not allow an Empire spy like him to live. Although before this, he did not know that he was arranged by the Empire to be a spy from the moment he was born.
In a situation where he did not know and had no choice, he became a natural spy. He did not do anything bad, but he had to pay the price for a life that he did not know. What a sad and absurd life this was.
However, the subsequent development of the matter was completely out of his expectations. If this was a nightmare, He Youyou would never have thought that after waking up from the nightmare, he would not have sunk into it. Instead, he would have started to have another bizarre dream.
Those officers with mysterious identities did not send him to the secret court for trial and then lock him up for life. They also did not execute the military regulations and execute a secret execution. Instead, they directly released him. However, before he was released, the brown-haired officer's gentle but cold warning was like a basin of ice water that woke him up from his helpless state.
…
…
The sound of footsteps outside the room made He Youyou jump in fright. Thinking back to his experiences over the past year, only then did he understand that the bizarre dream was still just a nightmare. Just like the disgusting curly brown hair of the officer who pushed open the door and entered.
"It is extremely difficult to find a place within the Federation that can completely block the light of the Charter."
The Federation officer walked into the room. After sitting on the chair, he removed the military cap from his head and carefully placed it beside his hand. He then rubbed his head full of curly brown hair and said with a calm voice, "With our abilities, even in this primitive underground cave, we can only block it for a few days. You've wasted a lot of time. I was forced to take the risk to come this time. This makes me feel extremely bad. "
He Youyou raised his head and looked at him with a somewhat deranged gaze. His voice was hoarse as he said, "You bunch of lunatics, murderers … so you also know fear. Are you worried that the Bureau of Proclamation will find out that you have met me before? "
"A little, but not a lot. In the end, The Glory Of The Charter is controlled by humans. Even if the Bureau of Proclamation can find me, without direct evidence, they can't bring up any charges against me. They can't even begin to suspect me. "
"Just like this isolated room sixty meters underground. Apart from the chips behind our necks, there are no other components that can send out electronic information. We pay more attention to the spirit and procedures of the Federation than anyone else. The Glory Of The Charter has protected the Federation for tens of thousands of years. Presumably, it will also condone the actions of us, the subjects of the Federation. "
He Youyou looked at him with a numb expression and said, "You can directly kill me."
"Details determine success or failure," the brown-haired officer said. The brown-haired officer said, "Due to some unexpected circumstances, this investigation is being conducted. This investigation may endanger our cause, so I need your final cooperation to end this investigation. These somewhat heavy stories need the death of you, the last seed of the Empire, to put a full stop to this. "
"I'm not some bullshit seed!" He Youyou shouted angrily at the other party, his facial features somewhat distorted in agitation.
"More than a year ago, we've already discussed this issue many times. I don't want to continue this discussion," the brown-haired officer said coldly.
There was a long silence in the gloomy room, and then the sound of water dripping clearly rang out. He Youyou lowered his head in pain and hugged his body as if he was afraid of the cold.
In this period of more than a year, he had obtained a lot of secret information from the hands of these mysterious soldiers. Moreover, under their arrangements, he had entered Bermuda and made contact with the people of the Imperial Royal Intelligence Agency. He had done many things that he could never have imagined before.
He had originally thought that the Federal military had allowed him to live because they wanted to use his identity as a seed of the Empire to pass on false information to the Empire and sow discord. Who could have known that the truth was actually more cruel than he had imagined?
"I agreed to pass on information to the Empire because I convinced myself that I shouldn't care about betraying the Empire's interests. I shouldn't care about the lives of those bullshit compatriots because I don't think I'm a person of the Empire at all! When I was still a baby, I was heartlessly abandoned here by them. Why should I fight for them? "
He Youyou raised his head and allowed the tears to flow freely on his pained expression. He roared angrily, "No! In reality, it was only because I wanted to let myself believe that I was still a citizen of the Federation, a soldier of the Federation, and that I was fighting for the interests of the Federation.
"My family, my friends, my colleagues, the first woman I fell in love with, the history I was most interested in, the stars I liked the most, the scenic spots I liked to visit the most, all of them belonged to the Federation. I am a person from the inside out … I belong to the Federation. My life has been spent here. I have a family, I have a wife, I have children."
He Youyou said with a sorrowful voice, "Except for this body, this flesh and blood."
…
…
"But the information I passed on to the Empire had nothing to do with sowing discord at all. Instead, it led to the death of Commander Zhong!" He hugged his head with both hands and looked at the brown-haired officer in disbelief and pain as he yelled, "What did you do? What did you want to do?
"Who is the traitor? Who is the seed of the Empire? " He Youyou's eyes wandered as he subconsciously muttered, "I am not, you are. You and those shameless big shots behind you … are the seeds of evil."
…
…
(Finally, it's time to write about this seed.
He had told many people in the past that they would never be able to guess who this seed belonged to, because from the very beginning of the design, this seed was not the guiding point of the plot, but the starting point. Moreover, it was nameless and had never appeared before, so it was very important.
There were many people who guessed Bai Magnolia's identity, including him and many other suspects, but there has never been a main character in history who was surrounded by extraordinary people, even if he had a halo. That was too illogical.
I am very satisfied with this plot setting. This seed is completely different from Medellin. This is very important, and it is exactly what I want to write.
Just like before, I've been holding back for a long time, and now that I've finally reached this point, I feel very good.
It has nothing to do with the brown-haired officer revealing his true identity, but it has to do with He Youyou's obsession to be a member of the Federation rather than a member of the Empire. Obsession is a wonderful thing, and it has to do with the education he received since childhood. After he learned the truth, he must have had countless psychological struggles, but there was no space to write about it, so I used the title of the chapter to commemorate it.
