Chapter 142: The President is Critically Ill
"Big brother, we're not really going to the police station, are we?"
"You decide. Going there will probably take some time."
"I really dislike those so-called Four Young Masters of Haicheng, and I really want to teach them a lesson."
"There's not much point in arguing with these people."
"To rid the people of a scourge."
"Okay. Let's go then."
Half an hour later, the convoy arrived at its destination.
"Hey, where's the robot?" the lead policeman asked Zhou Yuan, who remained noncommittal.
The eight people were taken to the interrogation room by the police and had their statements taken.
At that moment, a noblewoman walked over, led by the police chief.
"Eldest brother, Auntie is here." The youngest sister nudged the eldest brother with her elbow.
The four young masters of Haicheng all turned around. "Mom, what brings you here?" "Hello, Auntie."
"Hello. You brat, how many times have I told you not to cause trouble everywhere, but you just won't listen."
The lady turned around and walked towards Zhou Yuan and the other three. "Are you alright? I'm sorry."
"It's nothing. The two little girls were just sparring. Auntie, I hope you can discipline that one more in the future."
The noblewoman glanced at Zhou Yuan, then nodded without saying a word.
"Sir, can we go now?"
"Madam, you may leave now."
"And what about us?" Lefia asked.
"Sorry, you'll need a little more time."
"why?"
"Because we want to figure out where that robot went."
"What happened to the robot?"
"What's wrong? You probably don't know yet, do you? Assistant, turn on the TV."
"Yes, sir."
The television was broadcasting the news, and this news was a lengthy report about the video of the robot dealing with the men in black. The video was shot from above with a high-definition camera, and the picture was very clear. The robot's agility was astonishing.
As eyewitnesses, the four young masters of Haicheng didn't see clearly because their view was blocked by some men in black. When they finally saw the video recording from the robot on the television, they were stunned.
The four young masters of Haicheng were also puzzled. Hadn't the robot gotten into the car with all four of them? How did it suddenly disappear?
Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, Lefia, and Chu Xiaolu watched TV, thinking that they had probably gone too far this time. It was estimated that the robot video was being broadcast all over the world on Planet Amos.
The officer walked over to Zhou Yuan and the other three. "Gentlemen, based on your statements, we have not been able to find your true identity information." The officer then pointed at Zhou Yuan. "You are suspected of driving without a license."
Lefia chuckled, "Sir, you need a license to drive a car? That's so outdated. You'd be more suited to driving a warship."
"Drive a warship? Then you try driving a warship for me," the officer said jokingly.
Upon hearing that Lefia was piloting a warship, the noblewoman and the four young masters of Haicheng also turned their heads to look at her, and stopped in their tracks as they were about to leave.
"Sir, the princess was just joking, please don't mind her." Wei Shan wanted to help, but she accidentally said the wrong thing.
"Princess?" The officer was genuinely taken aback this time, and the other police officers also looked on with curiosity.
After speaking, Wei Shan realized she had let something slip and quickly stepped aside.
"Yes, I am Princess Lefia of the Star Luo Empire."
"The Star Luo Empire?" This time, apart from Zhou Yuan and his group of four, everyone present was surprised and confused.
"Brother, let's go. It's pointless to waste time arguing with these Amos people."
"Yes, yes, big brother, let's go." Wei Shan also felt that if things continued like this, the problems would only increase.
"Sir, you heard that too, we have to go. Let's come back for tea and a chat sometime." Was Zhou Yuan getting into a prank too?
"No, planetary security officials will be here soon, you can't leave now." The officer waved his hand, and more than a dozen policemen immediately surrounded Zhou Yuan and his three companions, reaching for their waists.
Seeing this, the lady shouted to the four young masters of Haicheng, "What are you all looking at? It's dangerous! Get out of here!" After saying that, the lady strode towards the door, but then seemed to sense something was wrong and looked back. What she saw terrified her.
The four young masters of Haicheng seemed to be under a spell, or frozen in place by some deity, completely immobile.
"Sir, sir, what's going on?" the lady shouted. The policemen turned around, and were also shocked. They quickly drew their guns and aimed them at Zhou Yuan and his group of four.
Even with his good temper, Zhou Yuan was still somewhat angry. "Sir, please don't do this. I don't want to escalate the situation."
"Hands up, hands behind your head, squat down, or we'll shoot," the officer ordered.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the officer and many policemen suddenly reached out and grabbed at the air, their pistols flying out of their hands. Not only the policemen surrounding the four men, but all the armed weapons in the building seemed to break free from gravity and fly towards the door.
As Zhou Yuan and his group of four walked towards the door, the police officers retreated and dodged as if they had seen a demon.
The noblewoman had already fainted from fright, while the four young masters of Haicheng remained motionless and standing still.
Perhaps out of resentment, or perhaps out of a sense of duty, the police officers picked up their batons and shields and went outside, preparing to line up in rows. But they dared not move an inch. All the guns that had been fired from the police station hovered in the air, their muzzles pointing downwards at the officers.
Pedestrians on the street screamed and ran, fleeing the police station entrance, only watching from a distance.
Four fighter jets roared in from the northeast corner, followed by six helicopters that flew towards the police station. Sirens blared, and police cars rushed towards the station from all directions. The police set up a cordon, and many officers immediately lined up to surround the entrance of the police station.
The police station in Haicheng, a small city, was suddenly packed with cars and people.
Six helicopters arrived quickly, and one by one they dropped people off at a distance. Eighteen Amos, some of whom looked like officials, walked briskly toward the police station entrance, escorted by twelve heavily armed special forces soldiers.
Among the officials, one appeared to be the leader, and the police officers saluted him one by one. Ignoring the others' attempts to dissuade him, this official walked straight toward Chu Xiaolu.
"Xiaolu, do you remember me? I am Vice President Cassino."
“Ah, I remember now, you were with President Adams at the time, we went to the ‘Consul’s’ residence together.”
"Yes."
"And who is this?" Cassino pointed to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan also remembered that this person was indeed with Adams, Chu Xiaolu, and other Amos people at the time. He never expected that this person was the vice president of Amos Planet.
"Casno, hello, I'm Zhou Yuan."
"Ah? My lord? Why do you look like this?"
"Oh, I was just wearing some disguise."
"Sir, could you please remove those guns from the air..."
"Return all those guns to the police station." As soon as Zhou Yuan finished speaking, the guns in the air circled once and sped towards the police station, disappearing from sight in a short while.
Just as the Amos people breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, five people flew out of the police station. They landed on the ground, groaning in pain, clearly hurt from the fall. These five were, of course, the four young masters of Haicheng and the wealthy woman. The five seemed to have just regained their senses; seeing the commotion outside, their legs involuntarily trembled. Five policemen immediately stepped forward and handcuffed them.
"My lord, I am very sorry to have caused you trouble and disturbed you."
"Casno, it's nothing. We just wanted to secretly experience your lives, but we ran into the Four Young Masters of Haicheng on our first day."
"The Four Young Masters of Haicheng are notorious. This time, we will not tolerate them. Please rest assured, sir."
"My lord, my lord, please spare our lives!" the second and third of the four young masters of Haicheng cried out.
“Casno, this isn’t a big deal. Proper discipline will suffice.”
"Yes, my lord."
"I haven't seen Adams for over three months. Is he alright?"
"Sir, President Adams..."
What happened to Adams?
"Sir, it's inconvenient with so many people around."
"Oh, then let's talk on the warship."
"Yes, sir, I'll let my attendant know."
Kasno whispered a few words to his attendants, then returned to Zhou Yuan and the others.
People saw six golden beams of light appear in the sky. Zhou Yuan and his three companions, Vice President Cassino, and the car Zhou Yuan was driving rose rapidly within the beams of light and disappeared after more than ten seconds.
"My lord, our wise and great leader, President Adams, is in the late stages of cancer, lung cancer."
Zhou Yuan and the other three gasped in surprise. Zhou Yuan still admired Adams. Chu Xiaolu asked the question everyone was wondering about, "How could this be?"
"President Adams' family was poor when he was young, and he worked in the coal mines from a young age. He later became a miner, so he was probably exposed to too much coal dust and the like." It was clear that Cassino had deep feelings for Adams, and his words contained regret, sorrow, and grief.
“Casno, why didn’t you tell us sooner? You know our technology could easily solve this,” Lefia said bluntly.
"That's what we tried to persuade Adams, but he ordered us not to say it. He said that human life is determined by God, and there are many pitiful and tragic people in this world. If everyone went to Lord Zhou, wouldn't that create chaos?"
"Casno, you don't mind if we rescue Adams, do you?"
“Sir, I understand what you mean. Planet Amos needs Adams. What do my personal interests matter? I only want to continue serving the people under President Adams’ leadership. Moreover, I do not believe I have Adams’ ability to manage this planet. Therefore, I beg you to save Adams.”
"Alright, Casno, those few words from you are enough."
"Thank you, sir and ladies. Xiaolu, of course I also want to thank you; you are a lucky star for our planet Amos."
Wei Shan and Lefia felt a little embarrassed when they heard Casno address them as Zhou Yuan's "wife" for the first time. They hesitated for a while, while Chu Xiaolu blushed.
"Casno, where is Adams now?"
“He’s been hospitalized at the Capital Hospital for six or seven days now, and he’s in critical condition.” Casno’s voice choked with emotion.
"Oh, then let's get there as soon as possible. Will you come with us?"
"Sir, I'll go down first and make arrangements."
"Okay, we'll wait for you. Here, take this. Once you're done and need to come up, just press this ring. You can bring people with you."
"Okay, thank you, sir."
Cassino was then teleported to the ground, where his entourage, special forces soldiers, and police officers were still waiting. Cassino whispered a few words to the police chief, then whispered again to his entourage and the special forces leader. The special forces leader nodded and saluted, which Cassino returned.
Kasno and his five attendants stood together, gently pressed their wristbands, and in the blink of an eye, they were on the warship.
Zhou Yuan had already contacted the head of the base's science department, asking him to send outstanding medical scientists with equipment to the capital hospital on Planet Amos. Then, Zhou Yuan's stealth warship accelerated rapidly and headed straight for the capital hospital.
