Chapter 101 Inquiry
The inquiry room of the gendarmerie is actually the place where military courts are usually held.

When there is no court trial, it is used as an inquiry room.After all, the layout of this room gives people a natural sense of oppression, and some people are directly discouraged when they come in.

Wang Pingan looked at the situation in the inquiry room through the one-way glass in the observation room, and couldn't help complaining: "The layout of this inquiry room looks very unfriendly."

Diao Youming replied: "All the facilities of the Gendarmerie will emphasize this sense of coercion, just get used to it. No, how did I remember that you are a regular visitor of the Gendarmerie, you should have gotten used to it by now?"

Wang Ping'an: "Don't make it sound like I'm walking around the military police all day long. Most of the time I just go to the military police detachment headquarters, but I never go to such a serious place."

"Then you can take a look now." As soon as the words fell, the military police in the observation room operated the console, and projected the scene of the detention room on the display screen next to the one-way glass.

Wang Ping'an's gaze was attracted by the picture on the screen. He stared at the person on the screen and asked, "Why is there a man in a suit here?"

"This is the representative of the Maga company in the detention room. Before the attack, he was trying to contact an officer of our army who could not withstand the pressure and defected." The military police replied.

Wang Pingan: "Can't stand the pressure?"

Diao Youming explained: "Here in the asteroid belt, psychological problems are quite common. After all, the environment is too harsh. The fortress is okay, at least there is simulated gravity. Those who have to be stationed outside the fortress often have deep space phobias. .”

Wang Ping'an was speechless: "So there are many people who rebelled, right?"

"No, most people are corrected by the psychology department when their illness is mild, but there are always people who slip through the net. Human psychology is very complicated, and scales can't always detect signs of anomie in advance."

Wang Pingan: "So the scale is not completely reliable, so why do you not accept my testimony because of the psychological diagnosis?"

"Because you already have mania." Diao Youming stopped Wang Ping'an back with a single sentence, "Actually, it's better to wait a little later, your mania is already in the process of recovery. The partner that the supercomputer gave you is really effective."

Wang Pingan: "After all, she is my antidote."

Talking about Wang Pingan changing the subject, he pointed to the screen of the detention room and asked, "Can you let me confront this guy?"

"He has received professional psychological training. If you confront him, you will only be manipulated by him." Diao Youming shook his head, "Let's leave it to the military police, they are professionals."

Wang Pingan: "Maybe the problem with the gendarmes is that they are too professional. Letting a layman like me come in may be able to exert the effect of a rookie defeating a master?"

The gendarmes in the room laughed.Wang Ping'an curled his lips: "Don't laugh, maybe it really works?"

Diao Youming: "Look at your partner's inquiry first."

Only then did Wang Pingan turn his head to look at the one-way glass, and found that the military police officers in the inquiry room were already in place.

Pointing to the military police on the left side of the room, he asked, "What's the matter with that guy who looks like a telegrapher?"

"That's the quantum transmitter. You know that two quanta that are entangled with each other can vibrate synchronously regardless of the distance?"

"I know."

"That is a communication device made using this principle, because the information that two quantum can transmit is really limited, and it can only pass through Morse code, just like sending a telegram."

Wang Pingan: "So the other side of the earth will know the situation here in real time?"

"It should be limited to what your partner and the interrogator present say, and more things can't be sent out. However, the situation here will be broadcast to the earth through a video signal, and the earth can receive it after a few minutes of delay. .”

Wang Pingan: "Then what is the significance of arranging this quantum transmission?"

"In order to prevent the enemy from tampering with the signal of video communication. Quantum communication cannot be interfered with. What is input at the input terminal is what is received at the receiving end. By comparing the content returned by quantum communication, you can know whether there is any video signal. Be modified. This is currently the highest level of secrecy."

Wang Pingan nodded: "Okay, thank you for your explanation, instructor."

"Shh, your partner has entered."

On the side of the one-way glass, Angeli walked into the cubicle of the person being interrogated, and the whole scene looked as if she was about to be interrogated.

The military police colonel presiding over the meeting glanced at the one-way glass.

Angeli also turned her head to look in the direction of the one-way glass, and Wang Pingan always felt that his eyes met her.

The colonel of the gendarmerie said: "Second Lieutenant Angele de Leon, name."

Diao Youming: "This is a common opening, deliberately asking questions like this to emphasize my unreasonableness."

Angelie was not affected at all: "Second Lieutenant Angele de Leon. Gender female."

Colonel of the Gendarmerie: "You are here to accuse Maga Corporation's cargo spacecraft Constitution of lasering your battleship No. 02446, right?"

Angeli: "No, what I want to accuse is that the Magga Cargo Spaceship Constitution participated in the live broadcast of the pirate attack on our base, and we blocked the laser beam they used to transmit the signal. After that, the pirate attack With the live broadcast, it becomes full of vistas!

"I think it is necessary for Maga Corporation's cargo spaceship Constitution to explain its relationship with this attack, and to open the entire ship for military police to search. There is a close correlation between the pirate attacks with a large number of Air Force casualties!"

After Angeli finished speaking, Diao Youming, who was beside Wang Pingan, shook his head: "No, this accusation is too radical, and there is no evidence to support it at all. Let’s wait until the key evidence is found.”

But Wang Pingan said: "I can understand her. After all, we escaped after a real narrow escape. We were almost killed by pirates."

"Of course you can understand her. You are partners. After such a life-and-death battle, you have already connected with each other. But things can't be so straightforward. After all, this is no longer the era of military police covering the sky with one hand."

As soon as Diao Youming finished speaking, Colonel Yu Yajun Gendarmerie came in at some point, and said, "To be honest, I really miss the former Gendarmerie that covered the sky with its hands. In that case, many things would be easier. How can there be room for these things?" Ghosts and snake gods are so arrogant."

Diao Youming: "Do you really miss the military police at that time? That's not what your psychological report says."

Yu Yajun: "Hmph. You guys who play psychology always think that you have everything under control. The one in the detention room also said firmly that I will never violate procedural justice now, saying that this is me. Redemption for the past. Nonsense. I'm just chained by the big men above."

Wang Pingan subconsciously glanced at the runner-up.

At this time, on the side of the one-way glass, the colonel of the gendarmerie who presided over the inquiry shook his head slightly after listening to Angeli's second round of statements: "Your accusations have no evidence at all. The gendarmerie is talking about evidence. We still Let's discuss that you were irradiated by the USS Constitution, you were irradiated by the USS Constitution's anti-meteorite laser, right?"

Angeli pursed her lips, sighed stubbornly for a few seconds, and said, "Yes, we were irradiated by the USS Constitution's main anti-meteorite laser. We are sure that the laser contains a communication code."

Colonel: "Did you decipher the code at that time?"

"No," Angeli bit her lip and continued, "We couldn't decipher the encrypted code on the spot."

"Have you recorded the code?"

"Yes, but I suspect it was destroyed by saboteurs."

"On the saboteur side, we've caught a couple of them, but they all say they just flipped the read-only switch."

Angeli: "It's a hacker. At that time, the Constitution had not been isolated by full-band blocking interference. With the cooperation of external hardware, their hackers rewritten the remaining data on our dilapidated spacecraft! The spacecraft was already dilapidated, so It's easy to do.

"As long as we search the Constitution now, everything will be revealed!"

The colonel shook his head, and was about to speak, when the telegrapher, who had been silently sending this conversation in Morse code, shouted, "Wait a minute, a communication is coming! Quantum communication!"
