Chapter 175: Chapters 172 & 173 He Xingzhou Comes to Shanghai! (Additional update for Captain 灬无卍心 and monthly ticket) Chapter 175: Chapters 172 & 173 He Xingzhou Comes to Shanghai! (Additional update for Captain 灬无卍心 and monthly ticket) California Institute of Technology, United States.
“Yu Sheng, news of the Zerg invasion has just arrived. It’s very dangerous over there. Are you sure you want to go back?” In a dormitory for international students, a group of people were bidding farewell to a young man.
“Yeah, Professor Jones really appreciates you and wants to keep you in his lab. He’s a world-class physics authority! So many people want this opportunity! It’s such a pity for you to leave now!”
“With your abilities, you could easily obtain a green card and stay in the United States!”
“Everyone, stop trying to persuade me! My mind is made up!” The young man lifted his head and said decisively, “The country sent me abroad for study! I learned these skills for my homeland’s use in the first place.”
“That’s true even in normal times, and even more so now during times of crisis!”
“I studied laser technology, and I’ve heard that domestic research institutes are recruiting talent in this field. I must return!”
“Though Liang Garden is nice, it’s not a place to linger! Joy in a foreign land is no match for one’s homeland!”
“See you later, everyone!” With those words, Yu Sheng picked up his luggage and headed to the airport to board a special flight back home.
Shanghai, in areas relatively close to the coastline, whether people or property needed to be moved to relatively safer places.
Some were arranged to go to nearby shelters, while others were sent inland or to other regions.
However, at this time, the transportation hubs had already been controlled, and regardless of entry or exit, everyone had to strictly follow the arrangements.
At Shanghai Airport, a military transport plane landed at the airport terminal.
He Xingzhou disembarked from the plane, Xu Zhilan and Ding Yue, dressed in civilian clothes, guarded the surroundings.
This time, he brought a batch of Universal Mechanical Exoskeletons just manufactured by the mechanical manufacturing institute, all loaded in boxes and transported directly by the military transport plane.
He Xingzhou planned to test their functions and effectiveness in practical applications, improving them as the tests proceeded.
The transport vehicles were parked at the pickup point, and just as He Xingzhou was about to leave, he noticed a message from the Xuanwu System.
Chaos was occurring at the airport, and management was seeking assistance from higher authorities.
The Xuanwu System was now employed across various departments, especially in Shanghai; from individual residents to material management, traffic management, engineering management, and defense management, all were integrated into the Xuanwu System in real-time.
Much like using a traffic map in the past, whenever something happened or an issue arose, the Xuanwu System would promptly notify the corresponding management personnel for handling.
However, this time, it was a Level 2 incident, and airport managers requested assistance from Xuanwu executors of Level 2 or higher.
“You guys go ahead and transport the equipment. We’ll go and check things out.” He Xingzhou said to the soldiers in charge of transportation.
“Yes!” The soldiers complied with the instructions and began the transport.
Meanwhile, He Xingzhou rode in the airport’s small vehicle, heading to the designated area while trying to understand the situation through the Xuanwu System.
Xuanwu stated, “Chaos is occurring in the airport hall, with nearly a thousand people blocked here, demanding the airport to open flights and let them leave.”
“Most of them are foreigners, and because the managers are worried about causing a significant misunderstanding, they’re seeking higher-level instructions.”
As Xuanwu spoke, He Xingzhou was already nearing the location, and from a distance, he could hear a cacophony of noise.
He saw a group of foreigners blocking the airport’s management hall, shouting or cursing.
By using a translator, He Xingzhou could understand every word they said.
“Open the flights and let us return home!”
“We demand additional flights immediately! We want to leave Shanghai!”
“I’m from the United States, you must open additional flights today, or I will complain to our embassy!”
“Open the flights and let us leave!”
“You must respect our demands and immediately arrange for a green channel for us to leave Shanghai!”
Most were similar shouts, with some even using offensive language and behaving disrespectfully.
*He Xingzhou listened with a frown, and Ding Yue muttered under his breath,* “When trouble arises, this group not only refuses to help but also causes disruption?”
The customer service and airport manager were busy explaining, “I’m sorry, sir. If you have a boarding pass for today, we will definitely arrange for your flight.”
“Due to the emergency, our flights are fully booked!”
“You can buy tickets for a different date and travel to another city’s airport by other means to board a flight.”
“I don’t care, you must arrange a flight today!” these people shouted, “Otherwise, no one here will be allowed to board!”
Manager Fang Cheng was sweating, as the news of the Zerg preparing to attack Shanghai had spread. These people panicked and wanted to leave.
All the tickets for scheduled flights were sold out!
These people, unable to buy tickets, came forcibly, causing a ruckus and demanding special flights to leave.
Because they were causing trouble, normal passengers were also affected, complaining nearby.
“Why not drive these troublemakers away?”
“No ticket, and you’re making a fuss? Want a free ride?”
“If you’re so eager to go back home, why not drive to another city’s airport? Shanghai Airport is currently used for transporting military supplies!”
“I really feel like going up there and giving them a few slaps!”
“Are you the one in charge?” a voice sounded next to him, Xu Zhilan appeared beside him and asked.
“That’s me, please be patient. We’re requesting higher instructions…” Fang Cheng responded reflexively.
“I’m a Xuanwu Level 2 executor!” Xu Zhilan took out an ID card and showed it to him, while the smart device also verified her identity.
