The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 531 Suspicion (Part 2)

The sensor strap is also a tool provided by the examination organizer, and candidates are not allowed to remove it at will. However, under the current special circumstances, it is only necessary to make it convenient to operate.

Whether out of dissatisfaction or genuine hurt by the actions, one of the boys shouted angrily, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?!"

His shout immediately shattered the silence of the entire scene, drawing the attention of most people, but he remained unmoved.

The sergeant who was helping him remove the sensor tape was also a bit bewildered by Springer's reaction, and for a moment he didn't know whether to continue or what to do...

The boy angrily shook his hands, then tried to pull it off himself several times in frustration, but failed, making him even more agitated. By this time, the other boys had all been dismantled by the soldiers and placed on a tray, leaving only him.

One of the soldiers, presumably the leader, came over and was about to take over the task of removing the sensor strap from the boy who looked difficult to deal with.

At first, they thought the boy was deliberately making things difficult, or that the other party had something to hide that caused such a commotion, but once they got involved, they discovered some problems.

No wonder the boy reacted so strongly... What's with this sensor strap? It's so tight, it's practically touching his skin.

I imagine it was a bit tight when I first put it on, but after all the handling, soaking it in water, and all the fuss, the sensor and the strap actually got embedded in my skin. Even though it's not completely removed yet, I can already imagine the mess inside. With my skin and the strap connected, how could it not hurt?!

What a coincidence...

However, it was impossible to simply leave it like that; it still had to be dismantled. The soldier carefully pried open an opening and was about to ruthlessly tear the whole thing off.

The unexpected happened right now.

Suddenly, the boy let out a low groan, and then, as if in pain, he yanked his hand away. Whether it was a precise strike or an accident, the boy's wrist swung up and down and struck the trays of the sensor strips, almost knocking them all over.

Everyone present held their breath, as if waiting for the farce to end.

Will the final result be as everyone expected? No, it turns out the special forces team really lived up to their reputation.

All anyone saw was a blur; the person had somehow appeared in front of Springer and steadily held the tray, without spilling a single item.

Time seemed to stand still. Even the girl who had almost caused the accident seemed not to have expected this. The gloomy look that she hadn't had time to hide on her face suddenly turned into a blank stare, making her look somewhat comical.

Zong Ting glanced at the sergeant in charge of disassembling the sensor strip and ordered, "Continue."

Nothing happened.

However, countless people secretly gritted their teeth in anger.

Having witnessed the near-accident, the sergeant in charge of disassembly became even more vigilant, firmly gripping the boy's arm until the sensor belt was completely removed.

But once the skin was removed, it was clear that the boy's entire wrist was peeling, red from being soaked in water, and the tender flesh was congested with blood and the edges were turned outwards, making it look quite horrifying.

While the wound might not seem like much in interstellar space, it must have been painful. The fact that the other person hadn't bothered to treat it for so long showed they were a ruthless individual. Jiang Hui glanced at them with some surprise. Except for the boy's wound, the other four were easily removed. There were five sensor strips in total; once disassembled and placed together, they naturally looked identical.

The people from the evidence collection department took the five sensor tapes and then retrieved the data from that period for comparison.

Because Jiang Hui couldn't pinpoint the exact time of the incident, only remembering a general timeframe, he then used the altitude reported by the distant scene model to roughly determine the comparison, and the result was roughly obtained.

While the evidence collection team was still working, the people waiting inside were gradually becoming less quiet—because of the minor incident that had just occurred.

"Was it intentional?! I think it was him... What a coincidence! Maybe he wanted to use this opportunity to destroy the evidence so that they couldn't find him." This was malicious speculation.

"That's right, he hits every time. I saw the force he used. If that person hadn't stopped him, he might have succeeded." This was to put someone's mind at ease.

"Isn't that Springer? I've heard about his wife; she's practically a school bully, nobody dares to mess with her. It's not surprising that someone who never tolerates anyone would do something like this." This is divergent thinking.

"No, don't you find it strange? Even if he knocked over those four pieces, it was other people's four pieces that broke; his own piece was still in his hand. If what you're saying is true, he should have broken his own piece first." Did he forget?

"What's all the noise about? Can't you just wait quietly? Seriously, do you really think someone's stupid enough to pull such a stunt in front of the judicial authorities and so many military officers? I bet you don't even need to wait before they find out who it is."

"The discussion will reach a conclusion soon, and I think it's pretty much him."

……

Jiang Hui was far away and did not hear the malicious speculations about Springer. He just thought about something that had just happened and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

It felt like a long time had passed, yet it also felt like only a short while, before the evidence collection department finally reported it.

We've passed this hurdle once again.

Even without a specific timeframe, they actually found two people who met the criteria based on the time period of a full minute provided by Jiang Hui. Moreover, the height points of that segment perfectly matched the height points of the model provided by Jiang Hui, and the energy waves that were later retrieved also matched fairly well.

One is a first-year student in the Mecha Department of the Capital University, named Della. The other is Springer, who came here with Jiang Hui on the Dragon Soaring and almost caused a mess not long ago.

The former's sensor strip could be pulled out relatively completely, without breaking from beginning to end. The latter, however, was intermittent, and many only had one node left, with a relatively long section left in the middle, which happened to be the section that Jiang Hui pointed out.

Were these two the people who attacked her from behind? Or were neither of them?
A hint of interest flashed across Jiang Hui's face; she found the matter increasingly "interesting."

A coincidental accident, a coincidental destruction, a coincidental appearance of two people with such similar data that there was a clear bias... How could it be such a coincidence? She felt more like an invisible hand was guiding them, coincidentally leading them in a certain predetermined direction—but this was destined to be the wrong direction.

Will things really turn out as the other party wishes?
