Incredible Insight: Toy Factory Discovers Swarm Drones

Chapter 434 Comrades on the Special Front: Liu Jianguo, please cooperate with our investigation.Imperial Capital Airport.

Inside the business terminal.

Outside the massive floor-to-ceiling windows, passenger planes took off and landed from time to time, the roar of their engines turning into a low hum through the soundproof glass.

Liu Jianguo had just received a call from Elder Qian.

Placing his darkened phone face down on a low table, he sat on the wide sofa, feeling as if he were sitting on a bed of needles.

The old comrade picked up the cup of black coffee, which had long since stopped steaming, and took a large gulp.

The bitter liquid flowed down his throat but could not suppress the anxiety in his heart at all.

He was frantically deducing possibilities in his head.

Elder Qian was a titan in the aerospace world; he usually lived in seclusion and had absolutely no interest in ordinary, conventional equipment.

And now, this old gentleman wanted to personally accompany him to Baishui City.

Liu Jianguo guessed that that kid Li Jiajun must have caused some trouble again.

And this trouble was definitely not small.

’The firefighting exoskeleton, armored vehicle, and Thermobaric Bomb that kid came up with over the last few days have already alerted all the higher-ups.’

’But after all, those were still within the scope of conventional heavy firepower for land warfare.’

’Could it be that the kid secretly developed something capable of flight?’

Thinking of this, Liu Jianguo felt like his heart condition was about to flare up.

He couldn’t help but reach out to rub his throbbing forehead.

Only after taking some quick-acting heart-saving pills did he feel a bit better.

A short while later.

The sensor doors of the waiting room slid open to both sides.

Elder Qian walked in from outside with brisk steps.

Elder Qian wasn’t alone; the old gentleman was accompanied by several comrades in civilian clothes.

Although these people weren’t in uniform, they had a sharp aura, and their eyes were as keen as hawks.

Liu Jianguo recognized at a glance that these were people from the Special Front.

Seeing this lineup, Liu Jianguo’s heart skipped a beat.

He hurried forward to meet them.

Once Elder Qian arrived at the airport terminal...

Without any pleasantries, Liu Jianguo directly asked Elder Qian if that kid Li Jiajun had caused trouble again.

He even vented the grievances he had been harboring in his mind just now to his face.

Liu Jianguo grumbled and complained, ”That kid is really something else, even keeping me in the dark.”

...

Hearing Liu Jianguo’s complaints...

The old gentleman didn’t answer immediately, but instead looked at Liu Jianguo strangely.

He watched him for several seconds.

Only then did Elder Qian slowly speak, saying, ”That kid didn’t keep you in the dark.”

These few words were like a bolt of lightning striking Liu Jianguo right on the crown of his head.

He was dumbfounded on the spot.

The utter bewilderment on his face was impossible to hide; his brain couldn’t process it for a moment.

What exactly did that mean?

What did he mean by ’didn’t keep me in the dark’?

He was already overwhelmed because of those weapons of mass destruction disguised as firefighting equipment.

If there was something even more headache-inducing, how could he not have heard even a whisper of it?

Seeing Liu Jianguo’s dazed expression...

Elder Qian sighed and said, ”After the other party finished making it, he even gave it to you.”

As soon as these words were spoken...

Liu Jianguo was completely stunned.

His eyes instantly widened, and his pupils dilated.

He had no idea what Elder Qian meant.

Where had he received some weapon of mass destruction significant enough for the Special Front to be deployed?

Seeing Liu Jianguo still acting like a fool...

Elder Qian couldn’t be bothered to speak in riddles anymore.

The old gentleman said with a serious expression, ”Stop pretending. What I’m talking about is that Firefighting Parent-Child Pistol. Didn’t Little Li mail that pistol to you? You then had your subordinate, Little Wang, put it in the Special Retention Area. But by a strange twist of fate, it was taken by the Decapitation Squad.”

After hearing this...

Liu Jianguo only felt a buzzing in his ears.

He was floored.

All the clues finally connected at this moment.

He understood now.

So the reason for such a huge commotion that alerted the Special Front was because of that Firefighting Parent-Child Pistol!

But...

Following this logic, a sense of absurdity instantly flooded his entire body.

’That’s not right!’

’That thing can only put out a flame as small as a lighter’s!’

That defective product, which he had personally appraised as having no lethality...

How could it possibly alert the people of the Special Front?

He waved his hands anxiously.

Even his breathing became rapid as he said, ”Is there some mistake? I looked at that thing, and it’s just an ordinary toy pistol.”

Faced with Liu Jianguo’s disbelief...

Elder Qian’s face was solemn.

He didn’t speak to refute him but instead used a low tone to recount what had happened abroad.

Elder Qian briefly mentioned how Yan Poyue had taken this pistol and wiped out the largest park.

The old gentleman simply explained the miniaturized application of Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicle (MIRV) technology and how those tiny projectiles suspended themselves in mid-air, silently harvesting hundreds of militants within minutes.

Every word, every description of the technology...

Was like a heavy hammer, ruthlessly smashing into Liu Jianguo’s chest.

After hearing this shocking battle report...

Liu Jianguo was paralyzed.

His legs went soft, and his knees instantly lost all supporting strength.

He almost fell directly onto the floor.

Fortunately, there was a single-seat sofa nearby; he grabbed the backrest for support and barely managed to steady himself.

He gasped for air in large gulps.

A wave of lingering fear surged into his heart like a tide.

Beads of sweat the size of peas instantly seeped from his forehead and slid down his cheeks.

The images in his mind began to rewind frantically.

Back to the day he received the package.

One must know that when he first got the pistol...

He hadn’t even harbored any defenses against this plastic product.

The most terrifying part was...

He had even pointed his eye at that dark muzzle, closed one eye, and peered intently down the barrel.

This behavior was purely a habit of an old military industry worker checking the rifling.

At that time, he just wanted to see if there was a special airtight structure inside.

But he had no idea what was hidden in there.

At that moment, his eyeball was less than a few centimeters away from the muzzle.

’If that pistol had activated then, wouldn’t I have been finished?’

This extreme act of courting death, brushing past the Grim Reaper, made his back go cold; his shirt was already completely soaked with cold sweat.

Amidst this extreme terror...

At this time.

Liu Jianguo also understood why Elder Qian was going to Baishui City with him.

Because such a massive event had occurred.

And the technological content of that Firefighting Parent-Child Pistol was so high.

The guidance, automatic suspension, and the incomprehensible micro-material craftsmanship it contained...

Every single one was enough to cause an earthquake in the scientific research community.

The matter did not end there.

A comrade from the Special Front who had come with Elder Qian stepped forward.

This comrade’s expression was as hard as rock.

He said expressionlessly to Liu Jianguo, ”Director Liu, once this Baishui City requisition matter is concluded, you must cooperate with our Special Front for an investigation.”

After all, this matter was too big.

Although the final result was good.

After this, those Chinese who were deceived by the Scam Parks—the people in those Scam Parks certainly wouldn’t dare to detain them anymore.

But the same point remained.

This matter was just too big.

...

Hearing this...

Liu Jianguo’s face instantly crumpled.

He felt aggrieved to the extreme.

He clearly had good intentions and wanted to contribute to the firefighting cause, but who knew that Li Jiajun would actually...

A short while later.

The boarding announcement came over the airport’s loudspeakers.

Liu Jianguo could only dejectedly board the plane with Elder Qian and the others.

He dragged his legs, which felt as if they were filled with lead, and walked at the very back of the group.

Accompanied by the massive roar of the engines, the flight cut through the sky, heading toward Baishui City.

...

A few hours later.

The flight landed smoothly.

The official motorcade sped all the way, arriving outside the main gate of the Li Family Toy Factory in Baishui City.

Through the car window...

The old comrade, Liu Jianguo, saw the situation ahead at a glance.

Li Jiajun was standing outside the factory gate, holding a phone that was currently live-streaming, his face brimming with a bright and enthusiastic smile.
