Atlas of Heaven and Earth -
Chapter 423: Behind the Scenes
The remaining members of the assault team on the field were numerous, but with Sister Huan and her group eliminated, the rest lost their fighting spirit and were all trying to find a way to retreat.
However, the Fusion Boundary Security guard troops refused to let them go, chasing after them relentlessly. In addition, the City Patrol team overcame the obstacles below and blocked the road leading to the Central City district.
At this time, two small airships had approached, aiming their machine gun muzzles downwards. As flames erupted, a burst of rapid firing rang out.
The machine gun bullets plowed through the heads of the militants, scattering gravel and dust everywhere. Even those wearing protective gear couldn't withstand it, and those without protective gear had their limbs torn apart.
Some Martial Artists in the field, realizing the situation was dire, didn't bother running to the low parts of the overpass. They directly climbed over the guardrails on both sides and jumped into the sea below.
Chen Chuan ignored those people. He walked towards Meng Shu's armored car. The Security guards gathered around, seeing him approach, showed respectful expressions and made way for him.
Reaching the car window, he made sure Meng Shu and Yan Yi inside could see him and said through the Boundary Token, "The situation is mostly resolved, but there are still some militants. Don't come out yet."
Meng Shu responded, "Okay." and asked, "Chen Chuan, are you alright?"
Chen Chuan said, "I'm fine. Oh, I tried it, the Company's product quality is good." Seeing that everything was fine here, he walked away, glancing at a certain spot in the car before leaving.
Meng Shu looked in the direction he had looked. In that seemingly empty spot, Auntie Yu's figure slowly appeared. Before this, no one except her and Yan Yi had noticed she was there.Auntie Yu said, "It seems Consultant Chen saw me just now?" The car had one-way windows, so people outside couldn't see inside, but she felt like Chen Chuan had noticed her.
Li Ying said, "Although I used my energy field to disrupt other people's Senses, Consultant Chen's energy field is very strong. He probably noticed Madam Yu when he got close just now."
Auntie Yu sighed and said, "Consultant Chen is very capable. It seems like it didn't matter whether I came or not."
Meng Shu said, "Consultant Chen and Auntie Yu are both people we can trust."
She then looked at Yan Yi, who understood and said to the Security guard Captain through the Boundary Token, "Find some people to collect the scattered weapons of the Martial Artists, wipe them clean, and hand them over to Consultant Chen later."
The Security guard Captain was taken aback for a moment, then responded with a full-bodied voice, "Yes!"
At this moment, Chen Chuan walked to the guardrail on one side of the overpass and looked out. Several speedboats were approaching on the sea surface below. Those who had fallen into the sea were swimming desperately towards them, and several ships were slowly sailing out from the distant coastline.
At this time, the energy field shielding had been lifted. He contacted the bureau and scanned those ships at sea, sending a message saying, "Pay attention to inspecting those ships."
Under the machine gun sweep of the two airships and the joint encirclement and suppression of the Security guard squad, the attackers on the bridge were gradually eliminated. As for those who jumped into the sea, they didn't pay much attention to them. The Processing Bureau would naturally send people to pursue them later.
The surrounding gunfire went from dense to sporadic, and finally only rang out occasionally. Security guards walked back and forth on the bridge with guns, eliminating threats while clearing obstacles in the road ahead. There were also those responsible for helping to carry and rescue the wounded.
Inside the armored car, Yan Yi communicated with the Security guard Captain and said, "Miss, we've captured several prisoners, all mercenaries. We haven't been able to determine their identities yet."
Meng Shu said, "Send the people to the Processing Bureau and donate a sum of money to the Processing Bureau later."
Yan Yi understood what she meant and said, "Okay, Miss, I'll handle it."
At this time, she received a message from the Company, asking if they should send Company security personnel to provide support. She said that things were being handled here and there was no need to send anyone else.
After a while, the Government public maintenance department came to inquire about compensation matters. She immediately replied that Fusion Boundary Company would be responsible for all the losses on the bridge that they were responsible for.
Most of these facilities have public insurance, which does not need to be borne by Fusion Boundary Company. They are the victims of the attack today, and will ask the insurance Company for compensation afterwards.
As for some of the involvements, the Company's Lawyer team will naturally be responsible for handling it.
As for Chen Chuan, he walked around the front and back of the convoy, and when he saw that there was nothing to pay attention to, he returned to his armored car.
He originally wanted to collect the dropped weapons, the others didn't matter, Sister Huan's Twin Daggers were very unique and had collection value, but the security guards took the initiative to help him clean up, saying it was the above's concern, although it lacked a little sense of ritual, but it saved him from having to look for it again.
After delaying for more than an hour on the overpass, the convoy set off again, heading towards the Headquarters of Fusion Boundary Company. Due to the attack just now, this trip was deliberately slowed down to Speed, strengthened security, and it took more than an hour to reach the Headquarters located in Voidward District.
The inauguration ritual did not require Chen Chuan to participate, so he did not follow the whole process, but only watched Meng Shu's speech to all Company employees through the Boundary Token, and later participated as the Security guard chief consultant when the Company executives held a meeting.
After a day, all the processes were completed, and Meng Shu officially took over Fusion Boundary Company.
She may not have Meng Lai's prestige and experience, but relying on the advice and decisions provided by Li Ying, and the help and cooperation of the Meng family members, it was enough to operate the Company steadily.
With this, Chen Chuan's mission came to an end. Although he still held the title of Chief Security Consultant of Fusion Boundary, he no longer needed to stay here all the time. The Company's daily Security guard was responsible by itself.
After saying goodbye to Meng Shu and leaving the Company, Director Wu contacted him on the way back to Wuyi, and communicated the situation with him.
At this time, he learned that there were two Third-Limit Martial Artists hired at the bottom of the overpass at that time, who blocked the rescue personnel of the Processing Bureau.
However, they were measured in their actions and did not hurt people in any way. When the situation on the bridge was not right, they immediately gave up resistance and were arrested, but claimed that they were only hired and did not know the specific situation.
In fact, how could these two people not know the situation? They knew more or less, otherwise they would not have participated at all. This should be because they had consulted a Lawyer long ago, and this claim could help them escape conviction.
He couldn't manage these things. He just wanted to know the origins of these people. Being able to mobilize seven or eight Third-Limit Martial Artists at once was definitely not a small force.
Director Wu said, "According to the current clues, the people behind this group are likely to be the Ferris Wheel Corporation."
"Ferris Wheel Corporation?"
Chen Chuan nodded. He had this guess before.
"As for the first Martial Artist you killed, although the head is gone, through information comparison and the confession of some prisoners, this person should be Jiang Huowang from Outer Ocean.
This is a disciple of the Wave Pavilion, a well-known martial arts arena in Outer Ocean. Wave Pavilion's branches are all over the islands of Outer Ocean, and Ferris Wheel Corporation's internal Security guard only hires from these people.
In addition, many of the Martial Artists you killed, although many are superficially Da Shun people, more or less have Outer Ocean blood in their ancestry.
One or two is okay, but so many people with similar characteristics gathered together are enough to show that it is not a coincidence."
Chen Chuan said, "I remember that Meng Huang has trade cooperation with the Outer Ocean islands and Ferris Wheel Corporation. Did they attack the convoy this time to eliminate Meng Shu?
But even if they can do it, the forces of Meng Huang's line will be eliminateed. As long as Meng Lai is still there, Fusion Boundary Company will never have any business dealings with them again."
Director Wu said, "We can't get anything out of the prisoners. The employer only asked them to cooperate with the attack on the convoy, but we combined the previous and subsequent intelligence analysis. This operation is very likely aimed at Chen Executive Officer."
Chen Chuan's eyes moved slightly. He thought for a moment, "Is it because I eliminated Meng Huang before and ruined their good deeds?"
Although it seems reasonable to retaliate against him for this matter, after all, the residents of many Outer Ocean island countries have narrow thinking, and some of them are particularly extreme in their actions.
But to say that a Company like Ferris Wheel would specifically target him for this matter, and mobilize a lot of resources and manpower, it always feels like a fuss. There may be other reasons.
Director Wu said, "We are still investigating this matter, but if the deduction is correct, we cannot guarantee that there will be no second time. Executive Officer Chen, you should pay more attention."
Chen Chuan nodded. Since the other party has invested so much before, then it is really not guaranteed that there will be no similar actions in the future. He said, "Director Wu, I will pay attention."
He thought about it and asked, "Will the bureau investigate Ferris Wheel Corporation next?"
"An investigation will definitely be conducted, but it is difficult to have any results at present." Director Wu said slowly, "Unless the above makes a determination."
Chen Chuan said he understood. Ferris Wheel Corporation also has Da Shun capital involved, so now let alone there is no direct evidence, even if there is, it can only go to the Courtroom.
And the confrontation of the Lawyer team will basically not lead to any results.
It is not so easy to bring down a large-scale Company. That requires the Strength of the Government or other Company, as well as the right timing. Even when they took action against Molan Company, it was because its main Strength had withdrawn from Central City.
Director Wu then said in a deep voice: "And we have learned that Ferris Wheel Corporation has been applying to join the "joint enterprise synergy'.
A team of investigators and representatives composed of multiple Companies has already set off and may arrive in Jibei Province in the near future to conduct an assessment and inspection. Their behavior of confronting the Government and actively expanding externally will not only not be a deduction, but will instead be a bonus."
