Marshal is always tired [Interstellar]

Qin Jue suddenly became enlightened: "That's right, we don't need the so-called 'resisting the outside world first' at all. The challenge of this model is actually to examine the quality of the top powerhouses in the new star field, and it has nothing to do with whether the galaxy is unified or not!"

"But it's better not to have a hindrance." Rand bent his index finger and tapped the table lightly. "Let us worry about these things, and you don't have to worry about them."

"...Okay." Qin Jue touched his nose in embarrassment, but because of this, he remembered another matter, and asked a little worriedly, "Did those old guys make things difficult for you about what happened at the competition before? "

"...No," Rand was stunned for a moment, then laughed, the corners of his mouth warmed up, "Don't worry, everything in the military department is under my control, and they dare not do anything to me."

"who is it?"

"Julia."

Qin Jue nodded and sighed.

Julia is also a general who has followed him 20 years ago, and she is careful, and has some gentleness and consideration unique to women. She has always been the right-hand man for Rand.

The harm caused by her betrayal this time is not so much the alliance with herself and others, but rather a severe blow to Rand.

Although he didn't show anything now, he must be feeling uncomfortable.

From the beginning to the end, the two never mentioned that Rand was the person in charge. The trust and intimacy between them has always been two-way. Qin Jue will never think about that, and Rand will not be there Explain this to yourself.

When friends have achieved this level, they are really like their own brothers and feet to each other, and there is no need to describe it in words.

Qin Jue rubbed the center of his brows with some headaches. He didn't know whether to divert the topic or comfort his friends. Betrayal by close subordinates is too hurtful... But I don't know whether Julia was caught by Anda. It was bought, and it was still a spy sent from the beginning.

Rand looked at his expression, and wanted to continue the previous question: "About getting married with the masters of the Federation..."

Qin Jue interrupted him: "Why did Julia do this, have you found out now?"

He also knew that he seemed a little unreasonable like this, but short-term pain is worse than long-term pain. This kind of thing must not be ambiguous, and all hidden dangers must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Rand pursed his lips: "...We are still investigating, Julia has been escorted to the highest prison, and they will report the situation to me all the time."

Qin Jue was stunned for a moment: "It means that you don't know anything about the situation now? How could it be? After such a long time, there must be some progress."

"..." Rand seemed unwilling to say more, "There is some information, but it is difficult to investigate if it is ambiguous... This matter is within the scope of my authority, so you don't have to worry about it."

What he said was too blunt and foreign, Qin Jue choked on him, and suddenly felt a little wronged.

Do you feel bad because you were betrayed by an important subordinate?But what can't you say to yourself, you are obviously concerned about him, why do you feel like you are making trouble for no reason?

No matter how uncomfortable I feel in my heart, I have to say it out. When I comfort myself, I always see it so clearly, why now I start to keep it secret!

But he didn't want to lose his temper because of such a trivial matter, he just took a breath to calm down, and tried his best to persuade the other party with a soft voice: "I... I also care about you, Julia who can get in touch with the core secrets It is not a trivial matter to betray a senior official, as the highest leader of the military department... As your friend, I am not even qualified to know the truth, right?"

However, he made a mistake again. Rand seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today. Hearing this, he just put on an indifferent face, and said, "Naturally, my subordinates dare not hide it. If the Marshal doesn't trust me, It’s the same as replacing someone else.”

"...Rand!" Qin Jue threw off the pillow and jumped out of bed angrily, "What's the matter with you, who are you talking about?"

The adjutant turned his face away from him, and decisively turned off the communication.

Qin Jue: "..."

(╯‵□′)╯︵┴─┴ What a mess!

In the Imperial Capital Star, in the military office, Rand looked at the blacked-out screen and sighed deeply after a long time.

"Knock knock."

He closed his eyes, adjusted his expression, and said loudly, "Come in."

Holding the folder in her arms, the heroic female officer walked into the room without turning her eyes, and closed the door smoothly.

"My lord..." Seeing that he took over the official duties with a calm expression and began to deal with them, the female officer hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did you quarrel with the marshal?"

"..." The palms hidden under the table were silently clenched. Rand turned over a page of the document and said indifferently, "It doesn't count."

The female officer looked at the optical computer with a black screen in his hand, feeling a little helpless: "You never directly cut off the power of the optical computer like this."

Rand suddenly smiled and raised his eyes to look at her, but the look in his eyes was startling: "You have never been so careless before... Why, after two days in the highest prison, you forgot how to be my deputy Are you ready, Julia?"

The female officer was so stared at by him that she couldn't help taking a step back, and it took all her strength to resist the urge to turn around and run away: "Yes... I'm sorry, my lord, this subordinate... this subordinate shouldn't be prying too much..."

That was the imperial general Julia who was imprisoned for treason some time ago!It's just that if Rand hadn't screamed, I'm afraid people who are familiar with her would not be able to recognize her. The woman with a stern face in front of her was actually Admiral Julia, the "Empire Rose" who was famous for her charm and charm in the military back then.

"Keep your duty," Rand said sternly, "Since I can change your face and identity to get you out of prison, I can also find any excuse to send you back, don't challenge my endurance."

"Yes..." Julia bowed respectfully, feeling her back was soaked in cold sweat.

"Go down." Rand waved his hand, restrained the frightening momentum that erupted just now, and lowered his eyes to look at the documents in his hand. He knew that the door was gently closed again, and then he turned his unfocused gaze from Move your hands away.

He is in a special position, has a special identity, and sometimes does many things—and these things, even Qin Jue can't understand.

He should have many ways to make this matter go. With the friendship between him and Qin Jue...with Qin Jue's emotional intelligence, the adjutant has too many ways to perfectly dispel all his doubts. Instead of making such an unpleasant situation.

But...he suddenly felt a little tired.

Lying is always a tiring thing. No matter how hard you try to make up a perfect statement, you will always spend several times more time and energy to complete it later.

He really didn't want to deceive Qin Jue anymore, but there are some things that can't be decided by "whether you want to do it or not".

The complexity of what happened in the previous competition was far beyond Qin Jue's expectations. The forces from all sides were intertwined, and even Anda, who was the initiator, couldn't get a glimpse of it. As for Julia, there was no standard for defining whether she was betrayed Straightforward and simple as imagined.

It's just that in the situation where Qin Jue and Anda disappeared together, the military department urgently needs to come up with an explanation with enough weight to bear the pressure from the elders and the royal family. The position of the female general is just right at the cusp of the storm, that's all.

This is actually the safest way with the least sacrifice. Anyway, these military officials who are placed in the positions of "key chess pieces" are all carefully selected diehards, and there is no family background that impedes interpersonal communication. , The meaning of their existence is nothing more than being pushed out as a cover in various similar situations, so as to stabilize the situation.

Then change your face and identity, and you can continue to do what you did before.

Rand never thought of himself as a good person. He was ruthless, ruthless, and would do almost anything to achieve his goals. In this regard, neither Anda nor many other politicians in the empire were far inferior to him.

He has done a lot of sinful things in the popular sense, and sometimes, the means of dealing with things don't have to be so decisive-but he can't tolerate even a waste of resources that is not in the plan.

To put it bluntly, he is a leader who fully believes in maximizing his interests, and he maintains a calmness that almost makes those who know it creepy.

Of course, some people will never be on his sacrifice list.

This time Rand didn't know what was wrong with him, but he suddenly became so inexplicably angry at Qin Juefa, and even said some hurtful things... Sigh, he must be feeling bad now.

...won't you just ignore people like that?

Just as he was thinking, the private communication channel flickered.

That's right...that's his style. When you become friends with someone like Qin Jue, you never have to worry about any misunderstandings caused by poor communication.

Rand hesitated for a moment, but clicked to allow the connection.

Qin Jue's image suddenly appeared in front of his desk, with an undisguised concern on his face... Cough, maybe a little wronged.

The adjutant who was inexplicably hypocritical just now couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

However, after hearing Qin Jue's next words, he resolutely threw his thoughts out of the blue.

"Rand, tell me the truth," the Imperial Marshal tried his best to put on a serious air on his handsome face, and his voice was much lower than usual, "You and Julia...Admiral, do you like her? No. You must feel bad if you don't put her in prison, right?"

"..." Rand silently swallowed a mouthful of old blood that was about to spurt, and exhausted all his control to control his hand that couldn't help but want to cut off the power supply of the optical brain again.
