Not cold [Interstellar]

Zhong Yue, who had been indulging in the gentle village for a day, finally rushed back to the army at full speed.His personal airship entered the main ship through an alternate channel, and after docking in the unmanned connection cabin, he let out a sigh of relief.

However, he relaxed too early, and the door of the connecting cabin suddenly rose at this time.

Dozens of people swarmed in from outside the door. The "welcome party" to greet Zhong Yue was luxurious, and Zhong Yue scolded his mother in his heart.

Reg, the deputy head of the Second Legion, walked in and caught Zhong Yue who had returned from his errand.

Reg smiled and said, "Deputy Chief Zhong, where did you go?"

The moment Zhong Yue turned around, there was already a smile on his face: "Deputy Lei, why are you so motivating the crowd and come out to greet me in person? Shame on you, shame on you."

Reg said meaningfully: "It seems that I haven't seen Deputy Commander Zhong for a few days. The strange thing is that I haven't heard that you are on a mission... It's a coincidence that I just saw you in the connection cabin today. As a colleague, Of course I have to care about where you have been these few days."

Reg took a step forward and asked forcefully, "Excuse me, Deputy Head Zhong, where have you been these few days?"

Zhong Yue restrained his smile, and proudly said: "This is a secret military mission, I will report directly to the person in charge of the mission, and at your level, I'm afraid you have no right to ask."

Reg signaled the guards behind him to surround Zhong Yue, and said coldly: "Zhong Yue! I have already consulted the army commander, and he confirmed to me that he has not assigned you any secret missions! Now you tell me honestly, this You switched shifts for two days and traveled alone, where did you go!?"

Absconding privately while serving is a felony that can be directly expelled from the military and sentenced to a hundred years in prison in a military court.

Now that things have happened, Zhong Yue can only insist that he has a secret mission and will not let go, and then go to other ways to prove this statement.

Reg's arrival was not kind, Zhong Yue knew that today's situation might be difficult to be kind.

The door of the connection cabin opened again, Zhong Yue's heart skipped a beat, he didn't know who was coming again, but he had to look back.

A soldier with gray hair and a straight figure walked in.

Seeing this person walk in, Zhong Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Reg gave a military salute: "Chief of Staff."

Hosalen nodded, and asked seriously, "You guys, what's going on?"

Zhong Yue took a step back indiscriminately, and stood in the corner without saying a word.

Reg rushed forward and explained the situation to Huo Saren in detail, and finally pointed to Zhong Yue and said: "Zhong Yue lied about carrying out a military mission and left the team without whereabouts. His actions have already endangered the integrity of the army. If the evidence is true, I have the right to suspend and arrest him and hand him over to a military court."

Huo Salun looked at Zhong Yue who was standing in the corner. Compared with the formation of the Regra gang, he seemed alone and had the upper hand.

Reg asked aggressively: "You said you were on a military mission, and now the Chief of Staff of the Second Army Hosalen is here to confront you face to face. You can always tell about your special mission, Zhong Yue?"

Zhong Yue didn't speak, he stared at the ground, patiently waiting for Huo Salen's shot.

Following Zhong Yue's silence, Huo Salun frowned more and more. He looked at Zhong Yue sternly, but couldn't wait for Zhong Yue's explanation.

There was a look of joy in Reg's eyes: "Can't tell? Well, the chief of staff is also there, so we can be a witness together. Zhong Yue left the army without permission and violated the military law of the empire. I declare..."

Huo Saren interrupted: "Don't you give me a chance to speak?"

"chief of staff?"

"Zhong Yue was sent by me to carry out a secret mission. You have no right to dismiss or arrest him."

Reg looked stunned: "——You sent him out? Is there any task that he must go out alone?"

Huo Salun said coldly: "This is a military secret. At your level, it is not enough to ask."

Reg's face was extremely ugly. He was robbed by Huo Saren in front of his cronies, and he was ashamed.He squinted his eyes, and swept Huo Salun and Zhong Yue viciously for a few rounds.

He already understood that today was played by these two people.

As shrewd as Zhong Yue, it is rare for him to be foolish and leave the army without permission, leaving such a deadly handle behind. Reg carefully planned to take this opportunity to explode and bring down Zhong Yue in one fell swoop.

The old head of the army is about to retire, and the head of the second army is about to change hands. This position can be said to be very hot.And Zhong Yue is his most difficult competitor. If he can get rid of Zhong Yue this time, he has full confidence that he can get the position of army commander smoothly.

However, Huo Salun, who came out halfway, chose to shield Zhong Yue. Reg knew it in his heart, but he had no choice but to return empty-handed in resentment.

Zhong Yue watched Reg leave with a calm expression, while Huo Salun's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot: "You lawless bastard!"

Zhong Yue immediately bowed his head and apologized with a humble attitude.

Zhong Yue was in a good mood at this time, and he was able to get Huo Salun's support at this time, many years earlier than in his previous life, which was really a surprise.

But he also knew that Huo Saren's mood at this time was completely opposite to his, and he was probably very annoyed with him.

As the chief of staff of the Second Army Corps, Hosalen was the most trusted military advisor of the old army chief, and his words carried weight.He also has some contacts in the military department, and he is a person who can directly influence the candidate for the successor commander of the second army.

Given his status, he didn't want to get involved in the muddy waters where these deputy heads fought openly and secretly. Like the old fox, he didn't say a word, and left himself clean.

Today, he had no choice but to save Zhong Yue from Reg's attack, which meant that he was forcibly dragged into Zhong Yue's camp by Zhong Yue.

Reg's interception was not arranged by Zhong Yue, but this turmoil, which had not started to abate, became an opportunity for Hosalen to join his side.Although Zhong Yue didn't arrange it intentionally, he was happy with the result.

Zhong Yue was able to gain Huo Salen's favor not because he caught the old chief of staff's tricks, nor did he get his help by seducing him with money, beauties, and power.

On the contrary, Hawsaren is a man of great integrity.Zhong Yue's ability to grasp his weaknesses is exactly Huo Salen's highly respected quality - he cherishes talents and is loyal to his family and country.

So he couldn't bear to see Zhong Yue's official career fall because of such a small mistake, and the empire would also lose a general who could really fight.

The life of the old head of the Second Legion was unremarkable, with no outstanding tactics or notable contributions.As a result, the Second Legion became the most mediocre of the three major legions for many years.

It is said that the old head of the group is not far away from retirement, and the three deputy heads of this generation, Zhong Yue knows in his heart that Huo Salun is most optimistic about himself.

In the second legion, there are three deputy heads.

Wang Feng has the oldest qualifications and is the right-hand man of the old regiment leader. His behavior style is quite similar to the old regiment leader. It is impossible to expect him to innovate and lead the Second Army to fight legendary battles.

Compared with Wang Feng, who was calm and stable, Reg who made the attack just now was younger, and his military achievements were more prominent than Wang Feng. He was good at calculating and fighting, had an extreme personality, and used troops too dangerously. Huo Salun didn't think highly of him.

Only Zhong Yue was the only one among the three. He was neither naive enough to understand the secret struggle, nor was he too obsessed with it. He never forgot that as a soldier, his first duty was to lead the soldiers to wipe out the Zerg and protect hundreds of millions of people. Count unarmed people.

Zhong Yue's talent for domineering in the use of soldiers, his awe-inspiring righteousness, and his passionate ambition are what Huo Salun admires most about him.

In his previous life, Huo Salun had been standing by the sidelines during the battle between the three of them, and it was for this reason that at the last moment, he quietly pushed Zhong Yue behind the scenes to help him become the commander of the Second Army.

Zhong Yue didn't expect that in this life, because he left without authorization to meet Ke Wei privately, he would directly drag Huo Salun into the water.

Apparently Huo Salun also wanted to understand this level, he wanted to scold Zhong Yue severely, but he knew that this place was not the place to talk, so he had to find another time.But looking at Zhong Yue at this time, he became angry, so he had no choice but to leave without seeing or worrying, and quickly disappeared.

Zhong Yue survived the crisis safely.

At this time, on the other side of the planet Abino, Xuan Mian knocked on Ke Wei's door nervously.

The moment Ke Wei opened the door, Xuan Mian felt...Ke Wei looked different.

Ke Wei, who had a good night's sleep with Zhong Yue beside him, looked refreshed and looked good.His lips were redder than usual, and the corners of his eyes were a little red. He didn't look very different, but he couldn't take his eyes off.

In just one night, there seemed to be an indescribable aura about him.

Xuan Mian looked at Ke Wei in a daze, and made Ke Wei turn his head to ask him: "What's wrong?"

"...It's nothing." Xuan Mian thought for a while before asking: "Well, boss, are you satisfied with his performance? If you are not satisfied, you have to worry about it. Once my boss sells it, he will not return or exchange it. "

Ke Wei laughed.

This smile was different from the smile Xuan Mian had seen on his face before.

Xuan Mian understood, and said with emotion: "I think you are with the boss... Well, you all seem to be very happy."

Ke Wei's smile was restrained, and he said with a bit of sarcasm: "Dr. Xuan, have you ever been in love?"

"No, but when I saw Uncle Tony chasing my mother, she smiled like this. She was very happy and beautiful."

Xuan Mian was right. This was the first time Ke Wei felt down-to-earth happiness after being uprooted, coming to Abino, and losing Jin.

Zhong Yue had intimate contact with him, and also confirmed a one-on-one relationship that was very close to a lover, which made Ke Wei feel a little more real.

Ke Wei smiled dazzlingly: "So... what are you looking for?"

Xuan Mian slapped his forehead: "I came to see you for dinner! The boss specifically told me that I must watch you eat. If you lose a catty, the boss will deduct 10% of my research funding. Hurry up! Now it's time for dinner. Absolutely can't starve you!"
