Oops, overslept!

Chapter 118

For the matter of the aircraft, the manufacturer of the aircraft cannot be blamed.

They did not shoddy, nor did they dare.

If there is any flaw in the things given to the Melved family, as long as this matter is publicized, the entire upper class will not buy their flying machines anymore.

The defense ability of the aircraft is definitely a simple version of the starship level, but the large transport aircraft that can't hold it and hit it is not ordinary.

That transport aircraft is specially designed to transport certain extremely dangerous chemical substances, which are extremely corrosive and highly toxic. People will be poisoned as long as they smell a little, and the detoxification method is very troublesome.

Therefore, the aircraft used to transport this chemical is specially manufactured. The outer shell of the entire aircraft is thicker than the general large-scale transportation tools, with a thickness of ten centimeters, and the materials used can only choose a certain corrosion resistance. High rare alloy, and this alloy has another feature, that is, it is very heavy!

With the same size, its weight is more than ten times that of steel. Because it is too heavy, other aircraft can fly at high altitudes, but this special aircraft can only advance at a height close to the ground, and the maximum distance from the ground cannot exceed one meter. , otherwise it is easy to be affected by gravity and have accidents.

Therefore, when most aircraft do not have such a design of wheels, it becomes a very small number of aircraft that need to rely on wheels to move, and the suspension system on the aircraft is mainly to reduce its own weight, otherwise such a heavy car will be pressed on the ground , It is easy to crush the road if you are not careful.

Then such a super heavy behemoth suddenly crashed into Zu Yu's aircraft out of control, and it didn't crush them into meat, which is considered the quality of this small aircraft.

Didn’t see that although it was crushed, both windows of Zu Yu’s aircraft were not broken?

Fortunately, this heavy-duty transport aircraft did not transport any dangerous chemicals at the time of the accident. Otherwise, if the chemical substances in it were leaked, the casualties and property losses would be more than that. The whole area was urgently blocked again, and the people inside had to be sent to the hospital for treatment.

Speaking of this accident, Cecil's face became even darker, so dark that ink could almost drip out.

"The police are investigating the transport aircraft. The pilot of the aircraft has died in an accident. The autopsy report has not yet come out, so it is impossible to determine what happened at that time, but I personally think that this will not be an accident."

As for the reasons, of course there are, and they are sufficient.

Cecil got the recorded video of the accident scene from the traffic police. As long as he saw the content in it, he probably wouldn't think it was a simple accident.

He released the video. Some of these images were taken by roadside cameras, and some were taken by other aircraft and passers-by that happened to pass nearby at that time. The clarity is very high.

The intersection where the accident occurred was not a flat road on all sides, but a route where a sloping road from north to south crosses perpendicularly to another flat road running from east to west.

At the beginning, Zu Yu's aircraft drove uphill from bottom to top. At the intersection, because he set the autopilot program, the aircraft automatically turned right to the flat road, and there was no problem in all operations.

The large transport aircraft is different. This aircraft came down from the top of the slope at the beginning, and because of the downhill reason, the aircraft slowed down at the beginning.

"The police have inquired about the company that this aircraft belongs to, and confirmed that its original destination should be on the other side in the opposite direction from yours."

If it weren't for this accident, the two aircraft would not even pass each other, they would just go further and further apart.

But after Zu Yu's aircraft diverted, video footage showed the large transport aircraft taking a noticeable turn—and to the left instead of the right it was supposed to go.Accelerated from the road on the left side of the slope to Zu Yu's right side, and finally showed a slight sign of slowing down when it directly hit Zu Yu's aircraft.

Even if it really slowed down successfully at that time, at such a short distance, the aircraft that Zu Yu and the others were riding in was more likely to be the icing in the middle of the sandwich biscuit that was directly smashed by the aircraft that caused the accident into the shop on the side of the road.

Fortunately, Zu Yu's aircraft was driving automatically at the time. Although the autopilot system was not as responsive as a human being, when an accident occurred, it would not turn the steering wheel involuntarily and try to avoid it in a dangerous moment like a human being. Fly that large transport aircraft.

It still drove forward for a while according to the originally set route, and avoided the fate of becoming a sandwich biscuit in such a thrilling manner.

Fortunately, otherwise, Zu Yu would not know how to explain to others how they survived.

"It really doesn't look like an accident." Zu Yu frowned and said, "Is there a problem with the driver's identity?"

"No, he is an old employee of that company. He has been driving this car for more than ten years and has never had any problems."

"But how did the other party know that we would be there? We went out on a whim, and I chose the route randomly. Even the bodyguards who followed behind didn't know this. How did they know that we would pass by there at that time? , and caused this accident?"

"Just knowing which direction you went when you went out is enough."

Cecil replayed the finished video and stopped at the moment when the aircraft appeared strange: "According to the traffic police's investigation, his original route will not have any intersection with you, but here suddenly there is a problem , from the shaking process of the aircraft, the driver was probably trying to adjust the aircraft back to its original direction, but obviously the aircraft did not listen to him."

Zu Yu made it clear: "You mean someone took control of this aircraft at that time?"

Cecil nodded: "Although it is not certain, the possibility is very high."

Just like the network in the Earth era can be invaded by various hackers, the star network of the Federation is actually not 100% safe. Otherwise, how could there be so many trumpets with vague information on the real-name system network.

There have been mechanical races once in the history of the federation, but these mechanical races did not have a good impression of the federations. They even tried to capture the entire star network to control all space battleships and in turn control all federation races.

But in the end, these mechanical races were of course unsuccessful, but since then, all artificial intelligences have not been allowed to have the ability to evolve themselves, and their intelligence has also been controlled to a certain extent to ensure that there will be no awakening among them The possibility of becoming a mechanical race, the mastermind of the star network is also the same.

And without the ability to grow and think like a human being, a program is just a program, no matter how powerful it is, there will always be loopholes. While the Star Network is becoming more and more advanced, hackers are also improving themselves.

That's why there are those sailor horns when pinching Zu Yu before.

Although so far, no one has been able to successfully conquer the star network mastermind, but it is easy for them to do some small actions under the supervision of the mastermind system.

Compared with the star network, it is easier to control the operating system of an aircraft - the premise is that the hacker's technology is strong enough.

Of course, not all aircraft can be controlled. For example, Zu Yu’s aircraft is equipped with a special device that shields external interference signals. Only relying on this special device, hackers can’t even control the aircraft. None of the above driving systems can do it.

Otherwise, they would directly control Zu Yu's flying machine, and it would be easier for them to crash their vehicle.

By the way, because this special device is a standard configuration of starships, the price is not generally expensive, and it is also only available to rich people.

"Shouldn't there be any positioning equipment installed on my aircraft?"

"No, after the aircraft was delivered, I had someone check it. The person who did it probably hacked into the monitoring system along the road just like controlling the aircraft, and then locked you."

What they couldn't figure out was that those people just tried to kidnap the cubs to blackmail Cecil, but this time the other party obviously planned to kill them mercilessly.

Based on their current guesses, those people had plots against Cecil, so killing the few people he cared about the most shouldn't do them any good?

This method doesn't look like it was done by a group of people.

But whether it's a group of people or not, this beam has become big!

Before the police investigation report came out, they had no way of knowing the exact result for the time being, but this did not prevent Cecil from finding a relationship to investigate the abnormal signals at the accident scene.

Because today's aircraft are inseparable from the autopilot system, if there is an abnormality in these systems, it is likely to cause a car accident. Therefore, as long as there are surveillance cameras, there will be instruments around that record the special frequencies emitted by the aircraft system. Check the records in the instrument to know whether the driving system of the aircraft involved in the accident was controlled at that time.

But the more troublesome thing is that the recorder nearby was smashed into a pair of waste by the large transport aircraft in the accident. It would not only take time to find a recording chip not much bigger than a fingernail from the pile of wreckage at the accident site. , they have to pray that the chip is not destroyed.

Zu Yu heard the words and asked strangely: "Why did you go to find the chip? Isn't that frequency recorder connected to the Internet?"

"It was there before, but today is the maintenance period for that area, so the frequency recorders in this area are all working independently."

It is very likely that the murderer knew this and chose this intersection on purpose.

Zu Yu said angrily: "These people are really good at calculating."

"Don't worry, people will always be caught."

After Cecil comforted Zu Yu, his personal terminal rang.

The communication was from Holden who felt that the scene of the accident had taken over everything after Cecil.

"Sir, we found the chip, but the damage is a bit serious, and it will take some time to repair. In addition, the police here want us to hand over the chip to them."

The author has something to say: Zu Yu: Why would the police dare to ask you for something? !

Cecil: There will always be one or two people who are just (stupid) and not (missing).
