364: Chapter 364 Talk-no-jutsu
Meanwhile.
On the airplane.
The warehouse.
This was originally the most inconspicuous place on a normal day, but now it was packed so tightly that no one could get through.
Even the aircraft's ventilation system couldn't keep up with the stuffiness.
Su Xueer and the others were even squeezed right next to Lin Heng.
Especially Su Xueer, she could even feel the softest part of her body seemingly pressed right against Lin Heng...
This brought a blush to her face.
However, Su Xueer soon felt a space open up behind her.
Before she could properly savor the feeling, she was quickly separated from Lin Heng.
She had been a little nervous before, but now she felt a bit sad recalling the moment.
"Who is in charge here?"
Soon, a stern voice rang out.
It instantly sharpened everyone's senses.
They all cautiously glanced at Lin Heng, their expressions quite grim.
As expected...
Illegally modifying an aircraft in the Dragon Country was definitely a crime.
If the previous incident could be excused by some loophole, there was no possibility of that now.
If it was against the law, it was against the law.
This was an undeniable fact.
No matter what Lin Heng had done before, this fact could not be changed.
Moreover...
The matter concerning Lin Heng in Africa hadn't even been resolved yet.
The Dragon Country's stance was still uncertain, but internationally, people did not have a good impression of Lin Heng.
They all wanted to skin this fellow alive.
It was rumored that the Pretty Country hated Lin Heng to the bone, which was why this situation had arisen today.
However, this matter also had a great deal to do with the flight attendants.
After all, they inspected the aircraft daily, yet they didn't anticipate something like this happening. If responsibility was assigned, they would bear some of it!
At this moment, the flight attendants looked grim, each hanging their heads and not daring to breathe loudly.
"I am..."
Then, a voice came through.
Lin Heng spoke up.
As soon as he said this, everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Heng, their hearts filled with mixed feelings.
"Did you modify this aircraft?"
"Do you know what crime you have committed?"
The person who came to investigate had medals displayed on his shoulder, revealing his identity.
A Major!
Such a Young Major.
Another second-generation officer here to build up his resume.
However, the way he handled things was decisive and swift.
He might just be occupying a position, but judging by his tone, he seemed intent on making things difficult for Lin Heng.
He appeared serious to the point of being frightening.
Upright and incorruptible.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but sweat for Lin Heng.
This was the Dragon Country, not that place in Africa.
Lin Heng couldn't just act like a local emperor or a supreme ruler here.
Everything had to be handled according to regulations.
They cautiously glanced at Lin Heng. They had been worried just a moment ago, but the next second, they were dumbfounded.
Good heavens!
After being questioned, Lin Heng's gaze was calmer than ever before.
Regarding the other party's interrogation, Lin Heng simply waved his hand and spoke with feigned ease:
"I really don't know."
Huh?
Did he just play dumb right in front of the Major?
The Major might have been a second-generation officer looking to build his resume, but he wasn't an idiot!
He quickly frowned slightly.
"You don't know?"
"If you didn't know, how could you have flown this plane and blown up that enemy fighter jet?"
The Major's voice gradually grew more serious.
His main focus was sticking strictly to the facts.
However...
Lin Heng acted like an old fox.
He calmly spoke up.
"I really don't know about that. Anyway, when we boarded the plane, we discovered this place by accident..."
"Oh, right. Didn't those people from Africa buy this thing before? They probably stuffed some things inside. This isn't our fault; we didn't modify it."
"Everything that happened before was just a coincidence."
"I haven't broken any laws."
Lin Heng waved his hand, displaying an expression of helplessness.
Hearing this, the Major's expression shifted slightly.
His mouth twitched.
Although he knew Lin Heng was responsible, he couldn't find a single point to attack.
If it was truly modified by the Africans, then this matter had little to do with Lin Heng; at most, Lin Heng was acting in legitimate self-defense.
Furthermore, he had shot down a fighter jet from the Pretty Country and even saved everyone on this plane, making him their hero, so to speak.
"You..."
The Major was still somewhat unwilling to give up.
But Lin Heng continued speaking:
"No, firstly, I was unaware of the matters concerning this aircraft; I discovered all of this unintentionally. Secondly, I saved an entire plane full of people; shouldn't I receive commendation instead of criticism?"
"Even more so, from the nation's perspective, a fighter jet from the Pretty Country entered our Dragon Country's territory. If I took action to eliminate them, am I now to be charged with a crime?"
"..."
Lin Heng's quick retort left the Young Major stunned and speechless.
When put that way, it seemed like Lin Heng was entirely blameless, and perhaps he was the one meddling unnecessarily?
After realizing these points, the Young Major's mouth twitched, and his expression turned unpleasant.
Who would have thought that a young man younger than himself, who hadn't even graduated from university, could be so calm and composed, while he was completely unable to find a way to charge the other party?
This feeling of stifled frustration was indescribable for him.
He had to vent.
Soon, the Young Major's face turned flushed.
His few seasoned subordinates noticed this scene and shook their heads with wry smiles.
Did this guy really think he could make Lin Heng bow his head?
This was the man who gave both Director of the Longan Bureau Long Anyou and Three-Star General Lin Zhengbei of the Northern United Zone headaches. If he could truly be disciplined by this officer, those two old fellows would probably weep with joy.
"Where is the modifier!?"
"Hurry up and let me see! Who designed such dangerous mechanisms!?"
Just then, a string of cursing voices came from outside.
The newcomers were none other than Elder Jiang and his group who had rushed up earlier.
As soon as they arrived, they began analyzing the aircraft's structure and subsequently discovered many secrets hidden within.
Good heavens!
They were shocked by what they saw!
These were all large-scale weapons of mass destruction!
One shot could directly destroy a warship!
And there wasn't just one shell of that magnitude!
There were even medium-to-long-range intercontinental missiles among them...
Could you imagine such weaponry installed on an aircraft?
And it was in a ready-to-fire state??
As they walked in, cursing along the way...
Suddenly!
Upon seeing the figure in the middle of the crowd, they quickly froze.
