Chapter 283: Used to It (Bonus Chapter for Book Friend Tushan Tong) (Third Update)
by SunflowerSu Ming, who had been pushed out, leaned against the Gun Knight’s leg, calmly observing the scene.
Mia, standing beside him, also sighed and said,
“Su Ming, what do you think of this? Who is right and who is wrong?”
“If you ask me, everyone is wrong, but also no one is wrong.”
Su Ming said indifferently.
“Why do you say that?”
“I say everyone is wrong because everyone considers things from their own perspective, never thinking for the other side. As for why I say no one is wrong, it’s because human nature is inherently selfish. You know, even the heart is biased to the left. There is no absolute right or wrong in this world.”
“Oh, not bad! You have a clear understanding.”
Mia looked at Su Ming with surprise.
“It’s alright!”
Su Ming replied very calmly.
In fact, he had seen and experienced such things many times; he was already used to them.
Just then, a hurried sound of footsteps approached.
Su Ming and Mia turned their heads to look, only to see Colonel Xiao Ye and Vice Principal Fuleike walking over in a hurry.
When they saw Li Mengqi and Doctor Tingli being surrounded, Colonel Xiao Ye immediately shouted sternly,
“Stop!”
Instantly, the noisy scene quieted down.
Everyone turned their heads to look at Colonel Xiao Ye and Vice Principal Fuleike.
“Vice Principal Fuleike…”
The students present said with red eyes.
Vice Principal Fuleike had intended to scold the students present, but seeing their appearance, he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue. He sighed and said to the teachers,
“Teachers, please take the students back. They’ve had a difficult time.”
“Yes.”
Opham and the other teachers replied in a deep voice.
At this moment, Commander Xiao Ye looked coldly at all the survivors present and said,
“Everyone, I don’t know what conflict you have with the two Doctors. But I must tell you, the two Doctors are important Federal personnel, and no harm must come to them! No matter how great your conflicts and grievances, please remain rational. Afterwards, you can appeal to the Federal Government! Also, the Federal Government has already dispatched a dedicated fleet to pick them up.”
The survivors present fell silent after hearing Commander Xiao Ye’s words.
Commander Xiao Ye then walked up to Li Mengqi and Tingli and said,
“You two, please come with me.”
“Alright!”
Li Mengqi and the other person nodded.
Commander Xiao Ye then led the two away.
Mia also sighed and said to Su Ming and the others,
“Let’s go!”
Twelve hours later.
In the vast starry sky, a colossal mothership, over 300 kilometers long, with a block-like bow, a slender and thick hull, and its entire body covered with a thick layer of black metal armor densely packed with countless launch ports, rapidly approached the Red Fang.
Inside the command room.
Lieutenant Anjie continuously reported,
“Sir, we have scanned the Federal 5th-level mothership, the Him. They have sent a docking request!”
“Agree!”
Commander Xiao Ye replied in a deep voice.
“Adjusting speed.”
Angie and the others began adjusting the ship’s parameters, preparing for docking.
At this moment, Li Mengqi and Tingli looked at the mothership coming to pick them up, filled with mixed emotions.
“Major Gene, you personally escort the two Doctors to the ship!”
“Understood. You two, please follow us!”
Major Gene said in a deep voice.
“Thank you for your trouble.”
Li Mengqi and Tingli then followed Major Gene and left.
In the starry sky, the Him flew to the side of the Red Fang. The two ships maintained the same speed and were very close.
Immediately following, two metal pipes extended from the side of the Him, directly attaching to the emergency passage openings on the Red Fang.
Then, the emergency passage gates of both ships opened one by one.
Major Gene personally escorted Doctor Li Mengqi and Doctor Tingli towards the Him mothership.
When they reached the end of the connecting passage, they saw a man in a Major General’s uniform, with a stern and resolute face, a straight nose, and graying temples, waiting with a group of subordinates.
This general was none other than General Jessa, who had personally come to pick them up.
“Sir, the personnel have been delivered. They are now transferred to you.”
Major Gene saluted Jessa.
“Very good. You performed exceptionally well on this mission. I will report to the military department to commend you!”
Major General Jessa praised with satisfaction.
“Thank you, Sir!”
Major Gene’s face showed no hint of joy, only a normal reply.
Major General Jessa turned to Li Mengqi and Tingli and said very politely,
“Doctors, you must have been startled. Please come with me!”
“Alright.”
Li Mengqi and Tingli followed Jessa inside.
Once inside the ship, Major General Jessa quickly lowered his voice and asked,
“You two, that item wasn’t lost, was it?”
“No, we carried it with us. We wouldn’t dare lose it, even if it meant death.”
Tingli replied very seriously.
“That’s good.”
Major General Jessa breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Inside the Red Fang’s command room.
Commander Xiao Ye stood quietly on the command platform, looking at the docked Him mothership, waiting for the personnel transfer.
At this moment, Vice Principal Fuleike walked up to Commander Xiao Ye and sighed, saying,
“This crisis is finally over.”
“Lord Fleck, do you think what we did was right or wrong? Sacrificing some people for others, in a sense, the value is not equal.”
Commander Xiao Ye asked thoughtfully.
Fleck paused slightly, then said very seriously to Commander Xiao Ye,
“Don’t think like that. People cannot be measured by value; life is priceless! When you view everything in terms of value, you lose the most precious thing. Human nature itself is complex and can easily go to extremes because of various things, and we need faith and ideals to serve as anchors for our souls.”
“I’ve learned a lot.”
Commander Xiao Ye nodded in response.
At this moment, Angie walked over and respectfully said,
“Sir, personnel transfer is complete, and we have disconnected the docking.”
“Activate the faster-than-light flight device. We’ve been delayed for too long.”
Commander Xiao Ye said without any hesitation.
“Understood!”
Angie replied respectfully.
Two days later, early morning in Hangar 1.
Su Ming and Rhine sat on the floor, waiting for Teacher Mia to arrive.
Everyone’s spirits were not very good; they were all listless, some even sighing.
At this moment, An Qi whispered to Su Ming and the others,
“Last night, I couldn’t sleep, so I went for a walk outside. I saw several girls from other classes crying near the observation deck.”
“Sigh, I heard that 43 students died, and almost all classes had casualties. It’s just that our class was luckier, no, it should be that Teacher Mia taught us well.”
Zhang Yi said half-way, then corrected himself.
“I agree with that.”
Mandy and the others nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Rhine sighed and said to everyone,
“Have you heard?”
