Chapter 479 Xiao 5 goes home 30
As soon as the live broadcast started, the number of online users increased rapidly, exceeding hundreds of millions in an instant.
The Star Network comment section exploded again, with people looking at the picture showing the panicked look of the Zhou family members.
As well as the large amount of property and illegal weapons that were seized, many people left messages to express their support: "This is how open and transparent it should be!"
"Let everyone see what happens to these scum!"
"Well done to the military, we support you!"
The military's credibility, which had been low, rebounded by 15 percentage points within just one hour after the live broadcast began. Many people began to spontaneously praise the military, praising the decisiveness and transparency of the action.
Admiral Azure looked at the boiling scene on the Star Network and the live broadcast of the Military Police.
He placed the cup on the table, and the water droplets on the wall of the cup reflected a determined light: "Get ready, and follow me back to the main planet tomorrow."
Chen Mo stood at attention and saluted: "Do you need to notify the honor guard?" Wei Lan shook his head and looked towards the main star: "No, I want to walk into the command center with dignity and victorious attitude."
He placed the cup on the table, and the water droplets on the wall of the cup reflected a determined light: "Get ready, and follow me back to the main planet tomorrow."
Chen Mo stood at attention and saluted: "Do you need to notify the honor guard?"
Wei Lan shook her head and looked towards the main star: "No need."
The next morning, the "Goshawk" leaped out and slowly entered the orbit of the main star.
From afar, the defense space stations outside the main star's atmosphere were lined up neatly, with countless fighter jets forming the words "Welcome Home", shining brightly in the morning light.
When the warship passed through the atmosphere, the scene on the surface of the main planet was even more shocking.
The streets from the spaceport to the military headquarters were crowded with people who came to greet them spontaneously. They held up banners that read "Welcome Back, Admiral Azure" and cheers rose and fell, forming a boiling ocean.
The battleship docked steadily at the spaceport's dedicated berth, and the hatch slowly opened.
Wei Lan was wearing a neat military uniform, with his epaulettes shining brightly in the sun. He walked down the ladder with Chen Mo and other team members.
The Chief of the General Staff, who had been waiting there for a long time, came forward with Lu Chen, Lieutenant General Zhao and other senior military officials, and were within the cordon at the front of the crowd.
His wife Lin Wan was standing there holding their seven-year-old daughter Nian Nian.
Lin Wan was wearing a simple long dress, her eyes were slightly red but she couldn't hide her smile.
Nian Nian had pigtails and was holding a graffiti of a battleship and her father. The moment she saw Wei Lan, she broke free from her mother's hand and ran towards him in small steps.
"Dad!" The clear voice of a child pierced through the noisy crowd.
A soft light suddenly appeared in Weilan's eyes. He quickly walked over and hugged his daughter tightly in his arms. The hardships and fatigue of the past year disappeared at this moment.
Lin Wan walked forward and gently held her hand, the warmth of her fingertips was warm and firm.
The two people's eyes met, without saying a word, but it seemed as if they had said everything.
The Chief of General Staff watched the couple reunite from the side, then walked over and patted Wei Lan's shoulder vigorously: "Well done, you didn't let me down!"
Wei Lan saluted the Chief of General Staff with a standard military salute: "Serving Interstellar is my duty."
As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him burst into even louder cheers.
Lu Chen whispered, "The entire scene of your return was broadcast live on Starnet, and the people were cheering for you."
Wei Lan looked up at the crowd, then looked down at his daughter in his arms and his wife beside him. A warm feeling surged in his heart, and he saluted the people solemnly, causing the cheers to reach a climax again.
Accompanied by senior military officials, Wei Lan walked along the red carpet towards the command center, holding his daughter in one hand and his wife in the other.
The soldiers along the way lined up and saluted, their eyes full of admiration.
The sunlight shines on the red carpet, stretching the family's figures very long. At this moment, glory and warmth are intertwined, and responsibility and concern coexist.
When Wei Lan, dressed in a neat military uniform, walked into the venue accompanied by the Chief of General Staff and Lu Chen, the flash lights instantly shone as brightly as the stars, and the shutter sounds were as frequent as a sudden rain.
He walked to the podium and stood still, his eyes sweeping across the audience steadily.
The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone held their breath waiting for the hero who had disappeared for a year to speak.
Wei Lan nodded slightly, and lightly touched the control panel with his fingertips. The giant screen behind him lit up, and the first thing that appeared was the star map trajectory on the day he disappeared.
"A year ago, I was ambushed on my way home from border patrol duty,"
His voice carried through the speakers throughout the hall, clear and powerful, "The Zhou family colluded with pirates and planted a bomb on the jump channel. My speeder, the Aurora, disintegrated on the spot.
Fortunately, I had enough time to transfer to the escape pod, which crashed onto the garbage planet number 734. I fell into a coma and just woke up."
Images of the escape pod wreckage and Situ Zheng's testimony were playing simultaneously on the screen. The old man in the picture was describing the scene when he found him unconscious.
"I'm really sorry for making everyone worry about me for so long." He bowed slightly, his gesture sincere.
There were murmurs of understanding from the audience, and warmth filled the eyes of many reporters.
Wei Lan straightened up, her eyes softening. "I would also like to thank the citizens of the galaxy for taking care of my family and keeping them warm while I was away."
Photos of Lin Wan and Nian Nian participating in an interstellar charity event appeared on the screen at the right time, with many people in the background interacting cordially with them.
"My family and I will always remember this friendship."
He paused, his tone turning serious: "Over the past year, my subordinates."
Wei Lan looked at Chen Mo and Jiang Chi. "They never stopped investigating my attack. To my surprise, they not only found the mastermind behind it, but also found the real culprit."
There are some truths we should know.”
The screen then switched to aerial photos of the Zhou family's test base, the victim's medical report, and encrypted communication records retrieved from the pirate database.
When the photo of Little Stone, the child with bony wings, appeared, many reporters gasped.
"As accomplices of the Zhou family, interstellar pirates have long been hired by them to rob merchant ships and transport experimental materials. Their hands are stained with the blood of innocent people."
Wei Lan's fingers tapped lightly on the screen, and the defense deployment map of the pirate's lair, the looting records, and the details of the financial transactions with the Zhou family were displayed in turn.
Each set of data is marked with precise time and coordinates.
"Just three days ago, we successfully defeated the main pirate group, destroyed their lair, 'Black Den,' and captured seventeen ringleaders. All the evidence seized has been handed over to the military court."
There was thunderous applause from the audience, and reporters waved their question cards excitedly.
Wei Lan raised her hand to signal silence and continued, "The Zhou family uses their power to weave a network of interests in an attempt to manipulate interstellar order. Their actions have seriously violated interstellar law and humanitarian principles.
Currently, except for Zhou Mingyuan, a core member of the Zhou family, who is still at large, the rest of the family has been apprehended and will face the most severe legal sanctions.
The screen finally stopped at the live broadcast of the gendarmerie sealing off the Zhou family's businesses.
