118: Chapter 118 Attack Incident

"You have educated countless people. Teacher Zhou, although you don't have official status, in my heart, you are truly the greatest. In that era, you had no selfishness, no tutoring fees, yet you guided me out... I thought, since you don't have official status, I will take care of you from now on. Those who have taught at Muza Elementary School for over twenty years can collect a pension of five thousand from Black Fish Technology every month; those who have taught for over ten years can collect three thousand; and those for over five years can collect one thousand! As long as Black Fish Technology doesn't go bankrupt, this promise is permanently valid!"

After Gao Yuan finished speaking, he looked at the teacher in front of him, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

"Gao Yuan... this is already very good! Really, there's no need for this!"

"Teacher Zhou, be here again tomorrow, and I will personally hand out your first month's pension! Also, for those over sixty-five years old, you can all go to Black Fish Technology to collect a pension of one thousand every month!"

The old village party secretary heard this and grasped Gao Yuan's hand.

His lips trembled, but he only managed to say one word: "Good... good..."

Lin Mei stood by with an expression of admiration; this was Gao Yuan, the big brother from next door she had looked up to since she was a child.

"President Gao, the celebration is about to begin. Why don't you come up and say a few words to everyone!"

The new village party secretary was a middle-aged man; Gao Yuan hadn't been back for many years and wasn't very familiar with him.

"Who are you..."

"Does President Gao remember Old Wu who used to grow fruit trees on Daqing Mountain?"

"Ah? Is it you? I often snuck into the orchard to steal your fruit when I was a kid..."

"No, that was my dad!"

"Oh... I remember now. You raised a big dog that chased me once. If Grandpa Wu hadn't held it back, I would have been bitten..."

Wu Jianmin felt a bit awkward.

"Yes, I was just loafing around all day back then. My dad sold that dog later on!"

Gao Yuan laughed, "Uncle Wu, you are the true master of Muza. You should be the one to speak..."

"How can that be? So many outsiders have come today, and quite a few of them say they are your fans..."

Only then did Gao Yuan realize that the number of people at the celebration site far exceeded the number of people in the village.

He instinctively frowned.

"Uncle Wu, do you know all these people? Why are there foreigners?"

"They aren't foreigners, they are ethnic minorities... they are all our fellow citizens of Xia! President Gao, I know you are busy, but since you are here, please say a few words!"

Gao Yuan walked toward the stage.

Everyone at the scene quieted down.

Gao Yuan picked up the microphone, "Hello everyone, I am Gao Yuan! A native of Muza! Today, our Muza New Village is completed and officially opened..."

Just as he was speaking!

Gao Yuan saw four or five people pushing their way to the front.

The Security Robot An Jiu and An Shi entered the crowd from both sides, preparing to block those people from getting closer.

Gao Yuan saw someone raise a bottle in their hand... holding a lighter in the other!

His heart skipped a beat.

"Something is going to happen!"

He immediately issued a brainwave command for An Jiu to have Gao Qiu activate his 'Dark Matter' box, and then he communicated via brainwaves with the Armed Self-Defense Reconnaissance Drone cloaked around him, starting to automatically lock onto the people acting abnormally.

Hum...

A curtain of light descended, covering the surrounding 100 meters, and time inside began to slow down.

Only Gao Yuan was unaffected.

He ran quickly toward the person in front of him who was holding the bottle.

As he ran over, that person's movements were as if slowed down by eighteen times; at this moment, they had just pressed the lighter and were beginning to bring it toward the bottle.

Gao Yuan snatched the bottle and threw it far away.

On the other side, An Jiu and An Shi were also blocking the others...

The Armed Self-Defense Reconnaissance Drone had already locked onto all the people with abnormal actions and began firing lasers.

Gao Yuan thought he could stop it.

But he didn't expect to be a step too late; when one of them had their lighter snatched away by An Jiu and was pinned down, the fuse sticking out of the bottle in their hand brushed against a cigarette in an old man's hand in the crowd...

A moment later, boom...

The bottle exploded, and flames rained down everywhere!

Gao Yuan's mind went blank; it was a homemade Molotov cocktail, filled with gasoline...

Exploding like this in the crowd, the people around were instantly covered in flames.

Gao Yuan began to save people. Lin Mei was right below the stage and had also been covered in flames. Gao Yuan ripped off her burning clothes and carried her onto the stage!

Then, Gao Yuan began to save others!

These people were prepared; they had added white phosphorus and other chemical accelerants to the gasoline. When it exploded like this, once it touched a human body, it was very difficult to extinguish. After burning on the skin, it would also leave behind large amounts of highly toxic chemical substances, which would enter the bloodstream through the open wounds of the burns, causing blood poisoning in the wounded.

The Armed Self-Defense Reconnaissance Drone he carried was still not enough. It could identify various firearms and cold weapons, but it could not identify homemade Molotov cocktails. When the fire started, the Armed Self-Defense Reconnaissance Drone finally reacted, and a laser beam killed the attacker in the flames!

...

In this attack incident, there were a total of five attackers; four of them were captured by the police who arrived, and one burned to death! A total of 21 people in the crowd were burned. The former principal of Muza Elementary School, because he was too close and happened to be at the center of the explosion... died from his injuries!

By this time, Gao Yuan had already fed the injured crowd Life-Sustaining Base Fluid. This Life-Sustaining Base Fluid was for repairing various tissues in the body, and it naturally had miraculous effects on burns.

A perfectly fine celebration had been cast in a shadow over the entire Muza New Village because of this incident.

Gao Yuan felt terrible seeing the grief of the old principal's children.

Just a moment ago, they had been chatting and laughing with him, but a moment later, they were separated by life and death.

No matter who planned this incident, they would pay the price.

Gao Yuan took a few security guards to the Linhai County Police Station; he wanted to interrogate those suspects personally.

Because the matter was of great importance, it had been taken over by the Linzhou police within two hours of the incident, and the provincial department was sending experts over...

At this moment, the Linhai police were waiting for the handover, and Gao Yuan arrived.

After saying a few words, the leader agreed to let Gao Yuan see the suspects.

In the case-handling area, Gao Yuan saw the suspects who were being temporarily detained. Gao Yuan let An Jiu and An Shi go in, while he waited outside...

Ten minutes later, An Jiu and An Shi came out.

As Security Robots, they were too good at things like interrogation. Once inside, they would ask directly, and then intercept and decode the brainwaves for analysis. People can lie, but they cannot control how they think!

"Do you know who did it?"

"Boss, we found out..."

"Good, let's go back!"

Having obtained the answer, Gao Yuan only needed to communicate with An Jiu via brainwaves, and An Jiu could transmit the obtained information to Gao Yuan!

...

Returning to Muza, at the Black Fish Technology Industrial Park, Zhang Baiyi had also returned.

He had just arrived and heard that something had happened.

Seeing Gao Yuan return, he looked worried: "Old Gao, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!"

Gao Yuan's face was livid.

"Zhang Baiyi, post a Weibo update in the name of Black Fish Technology..."

"Huh? Post what?"

"Tomorrow, America's Defense Building will catch fire! Warn all Black Fish Technology employees in America not to go near the Defense Building within 24 hours!"

"What?" Zhang Baiyi didn't understand.

"I am going to burn down their Defense Building..."

"Wait... was today's incident done by America?"

"No..."
