Tales of Soldier - Chapter 19

[Chapter 19]

In a luxury residence somewhere in the federal capital, a fat middle-aged man stood on a spacious balcony, smiling as he looked at a giant transport truck parked in the large courtyard downstairs. After seeing the secretary Zhang coming out of the car cabinet, he waved to him. Of course, that Secretary Zhang ignored him at all, got into the cab, started the car, and left.

After seeing the car disappear from sight, the obese middle-aged man immediately showed a hideous smile. At this moment, a voice came from behind him: “Are you gone?” He hurriedly put on a smile, turned his head and said respectfully, “Yes, Your Excellency, Secretary Zhang has already driven away.”

The person he called Your Excellency was the Minister of State Security—Chen Yu. Chen Yu smiled and patted the fat middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, “Thank you for your hard work. During the election, our President will look good.”

The obese middle-aged man hurriedly smiled back and said, “My company usually needs more care from you. What a trivial matter. I have to ask you to take care of me in the future.”

Chen Yu nodded and said: “This is natural, yes, do you know which person in the military department proposed the self-propelled gunboat proposal to the president?”

The fat middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head: “I can’t ask, can’t your intelligence network find out who it is?”

Chen Yu frowned and said: “Except for the fact that the president said that there is this person, it is not at all who it is. I even suspect that this person is a non-existent, completely fabricated person. But the president should not come up with these tricks, so who is it? How did the guy come up with such an idiot design?”

The fat middle-aged man froze for a moment: “You mean that self-propelled gunboat…”

Chen Yu nodded: “You are a manufacturer, of course you understand its performance. That kind of thing can be solved with a single shot. Except for the number advantage, it is useless at all. It is no wonder that the marshal did not agree with this proposal.”

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, the fat middle-aged man was obviously relieved. Chen Yu noticed this, smiled and said, “What? Are you cutting corners again?”

The fat middle-aged man immediately broke into a cold sweat, forced a smile and said, “How can I…” What else did he want to explain, but Chen Yu didn’t want to waste time on this topic, he said: “I don’t care about those things, my things How are you getting ready?”

The obese middle-aged man immediately smiled reassuringly: “It’s ready, and 100 tons have been raised now. If it’s not enough, our group can mobilize thousands of tons immediately. You can use it with confidence.”

Chen Yu smiled with satisfaction: “Very good, if I succeed, your benefits will be indispensable.” The fat middle-aged man nodded and said, “Then I will thank you first.”

Chen Yu looked at the scenery of the courtyard in the distance and said with a smile: “Hehe, fortunately there is that incident, so the Marshal does not dare to take off his military uniform to run for election, and he does not dare to choose a proxy at will, otherwise this election will be much more complicated.” The middle-aged man knew that Chen Yu was talking to himself. Although he really wanted to know what made the marshal dare not extend his hand to the election, he deeply knew that it was better not to know, so he stood silently. next to.

In the Marshal’s Mansion, Olmsted said to the virtual screen, “I see.” Then he turned off the screen, and then he took out a computer card from his pocket. Press the display button on the card, and the pattern that appears on the card is the design of the self-propelled gunship.

Olmsted looked at it for a while, and as soon as his fingers were hard, the card was immediately scratched and split into several pieces. Olmsted threw it into the trash can beside him, and then a chilling smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and at the same time a low voice came out of his mouth: “Hum, it will be lively soon.”

“Quick, quick! This is the first time to start a battleship, hurry up!” Such shouts rang out throughout the base of the self-propelled gunship. Tang Long, who was staying in the battleship, watched the virtual projection on the deck with great interest. , showing the busyness of the logistics staff below.

Liu Sihao and the others were also nervously testing the various systems in the battleship. This was the first time they had been allowed to enter space for training in the dozens of days they had been living in this underground base. Although these dozens of days of training are similar to training in space, they are not actually in space. Who knows if there will be any problems, so be sure to check carefully.

In the command room of the base, Linasha and China were quietly watching the busy scene displayed on the screen. After a while, Kina said, “Sir, are we going back to be a fighter pilot after the training is over?”

Linasha smiled: “Yes, don’t you want to?”

Qina shook her head: “No, I think your rank can already command a C-class destroyer, why do you want to go back to be a fighter pilot?”

“Hehe, I made an agreement with the military at the beginning. After the training, I will go back to be a pilot. Besides, do you feel that training these self-propelled gunboats this time is like training fighter planes? This is all Because I only know this training method. Sigh, I actually wanted to refuse after getting the order, but I couldn’t disobey the order, so I had to bite the bullet.” Linasha shook her head helplessly.

Qina swallowed her saliva and said, “Sir, I have always had a question, I wonder if I can ask?”

“Just ask.”

“Well, it’s like this. You have also seen the data of these self-propelled gunboats. You also know that this is a cannon fodder-class warship than a cannon fodder-class A-class patrol boat. Although you can use the dense main guns on the battlefield. Destroyed a certain number of low-level enemy ships, but judging from their degree of defense, it can be said that even the main guns of A-class destroyers can’t bear it, and they are definitely killed in one shot. In addition, the people who trained them are actually us fighter pilots. Sergeant, although we have rich combat experience, fighter jets and warships have different fighting methods. What is the military doing this for?” Qina asked excitedly.

Linasha looked at Qina, sighed and shook her head and said, “Seriously, I don’t know why the military would issue such an order. Not only has it developed a battleship that died in one shot, but it has never been in contact with a commanding battleship. and the instructors who train them are fighter pilots. I don’t think there’s any reason to do that other than to have them as cannon fodder.”

Qina was shocked and said with a crying voice: “Why? Why does the military do this? Are our soldiers really consumables?” Linasha held Qina’s shoulders and said softly: “We Without the ability to change the intentions of the superiors, we can only pray that the war will not come.” Then she looked at the screen and thought painfully: “Olmster, why do you want to do this? Are we all your tools? ?”

Adjutant Gina saw Tang Long sitting on the podium, watching the small screen of the podium with all his attention. Involuntarily said to him: “Sir, all preparations are complete.”

Tang Long said without raising his head: “Has the command tower issued an order to lift off?”

“Not yet.”

“Then call me again when the order comes.” Tang Long waved his hand and said.

“Uh, obey.” Gina returned to her seat and stared blankly at this unpredictable officer. Knowing that the officer deliberately made a good relationship with the 34th Company, and at the same time made them drunk and troubled, and asked the gendarmerie to confine them. Although I know that the commander is trying to take revenge for these female soldiers, this method is also a bit sinister, isn’t it? Not only let them suffer physical pain, but also left a black stroke in their files, which is very decisive for them to advance. To put it more seriously, it can be said that the military careers of the officers and soldiers of the 34th Company have been overshadowed, and the price is too great.

Gina suddenly came up with the thought that offending this person must not die, and her heart was shocked. Gina couldn’t help but feel that Tang Long’s arrogant and arrogant face was much more relaxed than the sullen face now, because seeing that cold His face didn’t know what he was going to do.

Tang Long didn’t know that he avenged his subordinates and made his subordinates think that he was insidious. If he had known, he would have cried out to God with a sad face. Of course, because he didn’t know, he looked at the battleship level data of the federal army with a cheerful mood.

Tang Long glanced at the data on the screen while talking to himself: “Well, the worst is the A-class patrol boat, hehe, this is the cannon fodder class, but it’s much better than my self-propelled gunboat. Crew 100, main guns 4 guns, 14 secondary guns, 4 torpedo launch ports, and the defense is 20. It really deserves to be cannon fodder, but the defense of my self-propelled gunship may be 10, oh, cannon fodder in cannon fodder, life is hard… …”

“Yeah? Patrol boats actually have three levels of ABC. Cut it! Each higher level has 20 more crew members, 2 main guns, 4 secondary guns, 2 launch ports, and 5 defense points. The highest level C A patrol boat has 140 people, 8 main guns, 22 secondary guns, 8 launch ports, and the defense has been increased to 30, nothing surprising.”

“Well, the destroyer is a little higher than the patrol boat. Hehe, with a crew of 300, 12 main guns, 22 secondary guns, 12 launch ports, and a defense of 40, yo! It’s divided into three levels. The highest level. It’s just 500 crew members, 22 main guns, 42 secondary guns, 22 launch ports, and 60 defense. Forget it, look at the data of cruisers and battleships. Well, there is only one level. Cruisers have 5,000 people and main guns 100. The door, huh? It’s actually the nuclear main gun of the self-propelled gunboat. Oh, it’s amazing, it is equivalent to 100 self-propelled gunboats firing together. 200 secondary guns? 100 launch ports?! Defense 100! Not so powerful, right? Wow, there are actually 10 fighter jets and two fighting companies? It’s too fierce!” Tang Long sighed deeply, because he thought that his own battleship was simply not comparable.

“Oh, I’m so envious. Well, let’s see what’s so great about battleships. Huh? 2000 crew? Why is it so much less than a cruiser one level below him? Wow! 300 main guns, and all of them are nuclear-powered guns! 500 secondary artillery! Defense 200! Isn’t this a steel fortress with gun muzzles all over the body? Huh? There is no launch port? There are no fighter jets and fighting companies? Are battleships specially used for artillery suppression?” Tang Long touched Chin muttered to himself.

“Well, I hope not to encounter such an enemy. Only one such battleship can destroy thousands of self-propelled gunships like us. Look at what other battleships are there. Well, there are 5 levels of transport ships, and the defense is all 5. , without any firepower, there are only 5 crew members, but the carrying capacity is differentiated according to the size of the level. It seems that these 5 are the main personnel of captain, communication, navigation, supervision and so on. Yeah? How the data of mine-laying boat and radar boat The transport ships are similar? Except for the difference in size and function, they all have no weapons, very low defense, and only 5 crew members. It seems that they should be designed by the same person, hum, lazy guy.”

“Hey, the aircraft carrier is beautiful! There are no main guns, 200 secondary guns, 500 launch ports, a defense of 300, and a crew of 20,000! There are 3,000 fighter jets, and 30 combat companies are equipped. This supports the series. Oh battleship. Ah, what is this? It’s dark, eh? Crew 1500, no main and secondary guns, 600 launch ports? Transmittance 10! Isn’t it necessary to reach a distance of 100 to find him? He sneaked in, come A single torpedo salvo will kill the battleship. So this type of submarine is quite powerful.”

Tang Long’s self-talk was heard by Liu Sihao and the others, and everyone looked at Tang Long blankly. How can these things that they know early on, be taken with great interest?

Tang Long lowered his head and folded his arms across his chest, sitting cross-legged on the command chair. Suddenly, he jumped up and shouted, “I want to be the commander of the cruiser! There are many people, more guns, more guns, more fighters, and more. Fighting team, wow, it’s all there, it’s really great, this is the flagship I’ve always dreamed of, oh, I drool just thinking about it…” Tang Long, who was in a fantasy, suddenly felt dozens of dazzling eyes , looked up and looked around, and found that everyone was staring at him blankly. This caused Tang Long to straighten his face, coughed dryly, and said to Gina in a cold voice: “What? Haven’t the order for the command tower dispatched yet? Well, then I’ll go out and have a look.” left the battleship.

When Tang Long left, the first person who couldn’t help laughing was Yan Jun, the always unsmiling deputy gunner. She lowered her head and forcibly held back her smile. Seeing her trembling body, she knew that she could endure it. How hard work. Yan Jun’s actions infected everyone, and immediately there was laughter in the cabin. Liu Sihao looked at his companions with a smile and thought, “Haha, I didn’t expect that the officer’s unconscious actions would actually bring him closer to us. I believe that everyone should stop hating the officer now, right?”

Liu Sihao thought right, Tang Long’s unintentional expression of his true temperament finally changed the soldiers’ view of Tang Long. They used to hate Tang Long because they didn’t know him well and thought everything about Tang Long was too contrived. And now from this little thing, they finally felt that they finally knew a little bit about their superior.

It’s quite strange to say, but now they recall Tang Long’s arrogant and arrogant image, but they actually feel a little close. The original feeling that Tang Long was insidious because he was punished for 34 consecutive times has now become the feeling of being a troublemaker. Perhaps, the most important thing in interpersonal communication is to show one’s true temperament, right? Although we don’t know it at first, there will always be a day when we will understand it.

“Wuwu, what a shame, the image that I worked so hard to make during this time is now completely ruined.” Tang Long hid under the battleship with a sad face and complained to himself. In the distance were the logistics soldiers who were busy filling the battleship with energy and ammunition. Although they Early in the morning, I saw this officer stay by the side, and I also saw this officer muttering with a sad face, not knowing what to say, but they guarded their posts and didn’t pay much attention to it.

At this moment, a cold object suddenly stuck to Tang Long’s neck, causing Tang Long to jump up with a scream. Looking back, it was the old colonel, and the cold thing was the bottle of sim wine that Tang Long gave him. I didn’t expect that the old man had not finished drinking it.

The old man waved his hand to let Tang Long, who had long been saluting, take a breath, picked up the wine bottle and carefully moistened a sip, then squinted his eyes and looked at Tang Long and said, “Why are you hiding here alone? It’s not your turn yet. Are you leaving?”

“No, sir.” Tang Long said neither arrogantly nor humbly with his hands behind his back.

The old man frowned: “You don’t have to be so restrained.” Then he sat on the ground against the bayonet stand that supported the battleship, and at the same time waved to Tang Long and said, “Come, sit down and let’s chat, there are so many battleships, it’s not your turn so soon. .”

Tang Long was stunned for a while, but he had never sat and chatted face to face with others. I used to focus on playing games, and I didn’t even talk to my parents, let alone those proud classmates. When they went to the training base, they were faced with robots. Except for training time, they hid in the room for the rest of the time. Although there were chats with people in the game, it was all across the computer. I came out to join the army. Although I now have a dozen subordinates, I don’t know how to do it. Although I am arrogant in front of them, I haven’t talked to them much. This time I can say that this is the first time I have faced people face to face. Chat, but how to chat?

Although Tang Long was a little hesitant, he still came to the old man and sat down. After sitting down, he could only watch the busy logistics soldiers in the distance without saying a word.

The old man glanced at Tang Long, smiled and said, “Why don’t you say anything? Is it because you can’t find a topic to chat? Tell me, why did you become a soldier?”

“Uh…” Tang Long scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: “Because I don’t want to go to college, and I don’t want to go out to work so early, that’s why I came to be a soldier.”

Hearing this, the old man was a little surprised and said: “Yo, I didn’t expect you to join the army after graduating from high school. After military training, you can get the rank of second lieutenant. It seems that your military training was pretty good. Yes, do you have any goals in life? ?”

Tang Long immediately said excitedly: “I want to be a marshal!”

“Marshal?” The old man took a sip of wine, squinted at Tang Long, smiled and said, “So you want to be a marshal, so why do you want to be a marshal? It’s not because of the name of a marshal that you want to be a marshal. right?”

“Uh, why do you want to be a marshal?” Tang Long was stunned, asking such an idiot question? Tang Long immediately showed the appearance of teaching and said to the old man: “The marshal is the highest commander of the army. Can be what?”

Hearing this, the old man couldn’t help laughing and said, “Hehe, that’s why you want to be a marshal? Tell you, the marshal is not the supreme commander of the army. There is a president on top of him, and a parliament on top of the president. There are two levels of superiors in charge. If you want to be prestige and get a lot of money, isn’t it easier to do business, and you don’t have to look at other people’s faces.”

“Yeah? Didn’t the marshal decide the military budget? Didn’t the marshal have full military command power?” Tang Long asked in surprise. He never thought that the marshal would still obey the orders of the president and the parliament.

“Hehe, although the marshal has the right to decide the military budget independently, both the president and the parliament can make the marshal obey the budget decision through a special motion. Of course, the president and the parliament only have the right to do it once a year. Besides, the marshal Possessing full authority of command only refers to military command, that is, the marshal has the right to command the soldiers to fight, but it is not up to the marshal to decide who the army will fight with.” The old man said leisurely after taking a sip of wine.

“So, it’s better to be a president than a marshal?” Tang Long asked in confusion.

“Hehe, unless all the members are yours, the president is harder than the marshal.” The old man laughed.

“Uh, how many members are there in our federal parliament?” Tang Long asked blankly.

The old man shook his two fingers and said, “More than 20,000.”

Tang Long stared blankly at the two fingers that he also stretched out, but quickly shook his head and said, “Hehe, who cares about them, it has nothing to do with me.”

The old man took a sip of wine and said with a smile: “Generally speaking, the army and the government are separate, but if you want to be promoted, no one in the government can’t do it. You must know that the factions of the government and the army are now closely linked.”

Tang Long grinned: “As long as it doesn’t prevent me from being a marshal, I don’t care about those members, but if they dare to hinder me, hehe, I will make them look good.”

The old man was stunned when he saw the light in Tang Long’s eyes, because it was the light of a careerist. This kid with the rank of second lieutenant usually looks like a single cell, but he didn’t expect to have such an obvious vision of a careerist.

The old man looked at Tang Long carefully for a while before saying, “Haha, do you, a little lieutenant, have the ability to teach them a lesson? Now they can let you retire with a snort.”

When Tang Long was about to say something, Liu Sihao came down from the landing port and shouted to Tang Long, “Sir, the command tower is here to give orders!”

Tang Long jumped up and danced when he heard this, and shouted happily: “Wow, it’s finally here, hurry up! Let’s go!” After speaking, he ran to the landing port and boarded the interior of the battleship.

The old man looked at the elated Tang Long, shook his head and took another sip of wine. He felt that he really couldn’t guess the young lieutenant. Sometimes people feel like he doesn’t understand anything, is arrogant, and does things recklessly. Sometimes I feel like he is like an old fox, and every move has an inexplicable meaning. The old man got up and swayed away from the battleship.

After Tang Long went up, he immediately stood on the podium and asked Chen Yi, the liaison officer, “When will the command tower let us set off?” Now Tang Long has forgotten what he thought was embarrassing in front of his subordinates, and his face has returned to a cold and cold expression. look.

Chen Yi immediately said, “You can leave at any time.”

“Okay, are the units ready?” Tang Long nodded and asked the people around him.

“Everything is ready.” Adjutant Gina responded immediately.

“Send a request to the command tower and notify the logistics staff below to leave, the ship is ready to go!” Tang Long waved his hand neatly, and then sat calmly on the chair.

Chen Yi was stunned for a while. She didn’t expect that the logistics staff would never be notified of the process of leaving during the usual training. Now the commander actually remembers the most basic procedures for dispatching the battleship. I wanted to remind him just now, but now I have to keep the words in my stomach. In this way, my superior really has the qualities of a qualified commander.

Chen Yi, who had an improvement on Tang Long, immediately tapped the keyboard, and while making a request to the command tower, notified the logistics staff below to evacuate.

Through the projection image, it can be seen that the logistics personnel below have pushed the facilities away from the battleship, and people are also hiding in the transparent tempered glass. At this time, the bayonet frame supporting the battleship began to sink slowly. After a while, the entire battleship sank to the ground. Then a strong wind gushes out from the pit, and the battleship disappears.

Tang Long looked at the images projected around him and couldn’t help but sighed: “So the entrance and exit of this base’s warships are underground, like a sewer.” No wonder Tang Long said this, his warship was being transported by an automatic transport belt to a viewing area. In the circular passage that does not end.

The battleship came to a stop at the passage, and Mary, the navigation pilot, quickly pressed a few buttons and shouted at the same time, “Prepare to set sail, the safety system is ready!”

With this sound, Tang Long and the others immediately popped up a safety rack on their seats, pressing them down firmly. After checking that there was nothing wrong, Mary immediately pressed the start button and shouted: “Start!”

I only felt the battleship vibrate, and then it drilled into the channel like a rocket and flew straight away along the long circular channel. After dozens of seconds, everyone found that a small bright spot suddenly appeared on the screen with the passage wall in front of them. As time passed, the bright spot became bigger and bigger, and then only felt the bright spot, and the battleship left the passage. , appearing in the air.

Mary immediately pressed a few buttons and said at the same time, “The power conversion is complete!” After saying this, she immediately grabbed the control lever, and the hull of the battleship shook again, rushing towards the atmosphere at a faster speed.

After only 10 minutes, the battleship escaped from gravity and came to space. After pressing a few buttons again, Mary said, “The safety system is canceled.” The safety frame that held down the crowd immediately returned to the chair, and everyone could finally move.

Tang Long stretched his waist and stood up, shook his head and said to himself regretfully, “Alas, I didn’t expect this kind of self-propelled gunship to be the same as a civil aviation aircraft. You have to wear a seat belt before entering space. Woohoo, when will you be able to drink leisurely? In and out of the planet sitting on the flagship with coffee.”

Everyone didn’t listen to Tang Long’s words much, and they were busy managing their own systems. And Chen Yi looked at the screen in front of him and said, “Sir, the command tower let us meet at s3245, x2234, z444, y341.”

Hearing Chen Yi’s words, Tang Long’s originally frustrated face immediately tightened, and he nodded solemnly and said, “Okay, let’s go.” After he finished speaking, he immediately half-laid on the command chair weakly, while muttering to himself. Said: “Hey, boring, and it’s training in groups first and then in groups. It should be in a state of war as soon as it comes out, so that it can effectively train the warships.”

Mary connected to Chen Yi’s computer, entered the coordinates into the driving system, and then pressed a button to say, “Enter the coordinates, transfer to the automatic navigation driving system, and arrive in 30 minutes.” After speaking, she released the steering stick and began to check the surrounding areas. environment.

When everyone heard Mary’s words, they didn’t pay much attention to the screen, and began to bow their heads and go about their own business. Tang Long, who was bored waiting to arrive at the meeting point, suddenly found that a woman’s head flashed across the screen. Although it was a moment, Tang Long still saw the smile on the corner of the head’s mouth.

Tang Long couldn’t help but be surprised. Although he saw that the avatar was the computer sister, he saw that kind of smile too much. It was the smile of the computer sister when she was going to tease him. When Tang Long was about to speak, the hull of the battleship shook violently, and then everyone was overwhelmed by the strong speed reaction.

Although Tang Long knew that this was the ghost of the computer sister, he still shouted: “What’s going on?” Mary struggled to press the button. Looking at the data displayed on the screen, she couldn’t help shouting in shock: “The speed is 2G. what!”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Anyone with a little common sense knew that 1G represented the speed of light, and 2G represented the speed of light. Is this function not as powerful as the self-propelled gunboats of ordinary civil aircraft?

Lanvint and Sire, who were in charge of the power system, immediately braced their teeth and pressed the keyboard with difficulty. After a while, they shouted at the same time: “The output rate of the power furnace is 200%! The injection port has reached the melting point and is about to vaporize!”

Mary also shouted at this time: “No, the automatic navigation system can’t be released!” And the adjutant Gina, after struggling to get up, checked the computer system and shouted in shock: “The main computer system is out of control!”

Everyone looked at Tang Long, and Tang Long smiled helplessly. Although he knew that the computer sister would not harm him, but when the battleship was about to explode, people were still sweating on his forehead. When Tang Long was about to say something, the battleship suddenly began to turn left and right rapidly. This move immediately caused the crew to stumble, unable to grasp anything even if they wanted to.

When everyone was lying on the ground, the speed of the battleship slowed down, and at the same time, a computer-synthesized voice came from the speaker in the cabin: “Arrived at the predetermined target, the automatic navigation system is released.”

Hearing this, Mary hurriedly got up from the ground and sat in the driver’s seat. After a careful inspection, she immediately shouted in surprise, “It’s under control!” Others also shouted that everything was back to normal.

Tang Long shook his head, making the feeling of dizziness disappear a little, and he sighed helplessly in his heart: “Wuwu, it’s just that you refused the request to accompany you to go shopping three times in a row, so you took revenge on me like this. I thought it would be beneficial to recognize a computer sister, but I didn’t expect to recognize such a stingy sister. Woohoo.”

The awakened people just wanted to check carefully to see what went wrong, but Li Lijun’s exclamation made everyone forget about it for the time being.

Li Lijun pointed at the screen and shouted, “Look!” Everyone looked up and couldn’t help but froze, because the shadows of thousands of warships appeared on the screen. Elva was the first to wake up, looked at the radar quickly, and said with a relaxed expression: “It’s all self-propelled gunboats, this is the assembly point. It took only 5 minutes to arrive, and the speed of 2G is really good. quick.”

When everyone heard this, the originally nervous mood was relieved, and Li Lijun couldn’t help but muttered to himself with excitement on his face: “Haha, I didn’t expect us self-propelled gunboats to gather together to be quite imposing.”

Tang Long looked at the battleships and pouted. He had commanded millions of battleships in the game. The thousands of battleships in front of him couldn’t make him feel excited at all. He waved weakly and said, “Meet them.”

Liaison officer Chen Yi and pilot Mary immediately responded yes, Chen Yi sent an identification message to the battleship group, and Mary drove the battleship slowly over the battleship group. Before she figured out what was going on just now, she wouldn’t dare to use the automatic navigation system if she was killed.
