The authority to release the suspect Derrius naturally also fell on Sumr.
Samantha numbly nodded her head and did not raise any objections.
Half an hour later, Derrius, who possessed specific professional skills, completed the autopsy of Jamarion’s body. The cause of death was determined – it was indeed food poisoning.
When Derrius announced the results, Samantha was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, shaking her head, sobbing in rebuttal, “No… it wasn’t . I didn’t poison the leader. Besides, our als were all cooked together; why didn’t we get poisoned, only him? That’s not reasonable! Moreover, you’ve been talking about motive; I’m the one with the least motive here! Don’t look at like that!”
Sumr Owen looked at Derrius first, then at Samantha, who had collapsed on the ground, and glanced at Jamarion’s body on the dical bed. Her mind was a complete ss.
The situation had reached a deadlock.
Unable to do anything, they could only watch helplessly as people died one after another.
And without a doubt, if they didn’t do sothing, more people would die.
No one knew who the next victim would be.
…
Sumr Owen spent half an hour collecting ssages from other teams’ broadcasts.
So teams had already escaped into the sky in small ard ships, and so were preparing to do so.
More than half of the research stations with three deaths had been passed, and a few had only one or two people left alive.
“We can’t wait any longer. We must evacuate imdiately, or we will all die here,” Derrius said firmly.
“Alright, Derrius, you go and prepare.”
“OK. I’ll switch the ship to manual mode and then manually ignite the engine. It’ll take about four hours. During these four hours, you two should be careful.”
After finishing his words, Derrius headed straight to the ship’s dock.
Sumr Owen took out items suspected of being weapons, such as the Ion Beam Gun, alloy rope, Jamarion’s bowl, chopsticks, plates, knives, and forks, and neatly arrayed them on the workbench in the hall.
Before leaving, she tried to reanalyze and examine the case one last ti, making a final attempt.
In her head, countless data, past experint records, chanical ecosystem research reports on J919, various death details of the deceased, and the current situation of survivors from other research stations churned repeatedly.
Eventually, her gaze landed on Liam Lee’s notebook.
At this mont, the notebook was open, showing her handwritten calculation data drafts.
“I’ll do one last calculation,” Sumr Owen muttered to herself. She already had a bit of intuition in her heart.
She picked up the notebook and pen again.
At the sa ti, she said, “Samantha, can you bring the chanical Logic Thinking Enhancent Elixir?”
Sumr Owen decided to give it one last shot.
She was unwilling to flee in such a miserable state – both for the sake of research and for those who had died inexplicably.
Hearing this, Samantha wondered, “Dr. Owen, what are you going to do? That elixir will cause irreversible chanization of your brain…”
“Please bring the elixir, thank you.”
Sumr Owen cut Samantha off and urged her, once more.
…
Three hours later, Sumr Owen put down the pen in her hand.
The notebook in front of her had been filled to its last page.
She took a deep breath.
Clarity filled her heart.
Sumr Owen picked up the Ion Beam Gun and headed to the dock.
Sumr Owen: “Derrius, I’ve activated the functions of your combat suit. Take this gun, go to the base entrance, aim at the sky, and pull the trigger according to the frequency I told you.”
Derrius: “What are you going to do?”
“I’m sending so information to the people outside. Also, we will be the last team to leave.”
“What do you an?”
“It doesn’t an anything. Just follow my order, thank you. You are a soldier and I am your superior now. You should carry out my order unconditionally.”
“Are you going to solve the case and avenge the others?”
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.”
Perhaps it was the effect of the elixir, or maybe it was because she had experienced so much in just a few days and had been living in inexplicable fear, that Sumr Owen had rapidly transford. At this ti, she appeared to have a vastly different personality, emanating extre coldness and dominance.
Derrius looked solemn, said no more, and turned the Ion Beam Gun’s power to maximum, aiming the muzzle at the sky.
Although the Ion Beam Gun was a portable individual weapon, with the current technological level of humans, its destructive power was considerable when turned up to its maximum. The ion beam could break free from the thin atmosphere of J919 and enter outer space.
From a distance in space, one could see the planet’s surface, like a searchlight, pulsating beams of light in a specific rhythm.
As the distance increased, the beams gradually expanded until, after traversing a distance of nearly 80 million kiloters, they finally dissipated.
The beams moved faster than other teams who were forced to use manual mode to launch their ships.
Before the other research teams had left the atmosphere, Sumr Owen sent out the information she wanted to convey, which was collected by a small escort ship patrolling outside.
After completing this task, Martha Owen, Derrius, and Samantha entered the cockpit of the small, fast-ard ship, but they didn’t hurry to ignite the engine, only preheating the power engine.
As for the bodies of Matsuda Masahito, Liam Lee, and Jamarion, they had already been placed in the cargo hold.
