Hot water was poured into the cup, and white smoke wafted out. The tea leaves float and swirl in the water.
Bai Yue stood in front of the desk, watching Admiral Lu's actions. After the other party made the tea, he pushed one of the cups over.
"Please."
Bai Yue picked up the teacup: "Thank you."
Ten minutes ago, he suddenly received a call to come to the principal's office. I thought something was wrong, but after coming in, Lu Shangjian didn't say anything, but started to make tea on his own.
This is the first time the two have met since Luohua College.
When Bai Yue was drinking tea, Lu Shang put his hands on his chin and smiled: "It's been so long, you've grown taller."
He remembered that the first time he saw Bai Yue, he looked like a clean omega boy. The appearance is still somewhat similar to the old man, so he was really shocked for a few seconds at the time.
Goodbye now, the other party is a little taller than then, it should be close to 180. The lines of the face tend to be tough. The figure is in the transition between youth and youth, and the appearance has changed from delicate to handsome.
It's just a change in appearance. The biggest change was actually the aura emanating from the opponent's body. Confident and strong, people can't help but look sideways.
Bai Yue put down the teacup: "Principal, why are you looking for me here?"
Seeing that the teacup was empty, the general on the land got up and poured hot water: "Can't you just chat if you have nothing to do?"
"No." Bai Yue smiled, "It's my honor to chat with you."
"You are quite talkative."
The land commander specially asked Bai Yue to come over, not only for greetings, of course.
"So many military regions have sent invitation letters to you, but none of them are interested?"
It turned out to be about the internship.
Bai Yue replied, "I just feel that with my current strength, it's too early to go for an internship."
"To be too arrogant is to be conceited." General Lu said, "You are better than many senior students in our school. You feel that you are insufficient, what do you want them to think?"
Bai Yue didn't think about it that much, and was a little hesitant.
The land general opened the drawer and handed over a letter: "I received a contact from an old friend here, asking me to send you to their military area."
Bai Yue picked up the envelope, unfolded it, and glanced at it. Still an invitation letter for an internship.
The location is in another galaxy, Queen z-23.
Admiral: "The Queens District Military Headquarters is also one of the largest military districts in the Empire. If you can go there to study for a while, it will be of great benefit."
Bai Yue has lived in the small city of Los Angeles since he was a child. But even he has heard of the Queen Star's name.
As one of the fastest growing planets in the Empire Galaxy, it is highly valued by the Empire, and its level of development is no less than that of the D-312 star. Therefore, the military headquarters stationed here is quite powerful.
"Of course, that's not the main reason."
Hearing this, Bai Yue looked away from the invitation letter and turned to the general.
"The recent actions in Queens are a little unusual. But we sent investigators there and found no clues."
Lu Shang put his hand on the table: "However, this time it was an invitation letter from them. If you were to investigate, they wouldn't be suspicious."
Bai Yue understood: "You asked me to do an internship on the surface, but are you actually going to investigate this military region?"
"Not bad." The land general nodded.
Bai Yue: "What do you mean by abnormal behavior?"
The land general pondered for a while and told the story of the incident.
The cause was an anonymous report of missing soldiers in the Queens Military District. The headquarters responded immediately and dispatched contingents to investigate.
But after comparing the military lists in Queens one by one, it was found that the number and names were correct, and no one was actually missing.
As a result, the anonymous report was treated as a prank.
However, the land general was a little concerned.
"Although it's just my personal guess, it's probably not that simple."
Long before this anonymous report, he had a vague feeling that Queens' actions were a little strange, but there was no actual evidence.
And this report undoubtedly aggravated his suspicions.
"Don't be too stressful, just treat it as an internship opportunity. Just watch it carefully and report it to me as you did before."
He smiled and said, "You should be very good at this."
Bai Yue looked at Admiral Lu and put away the invitation letter: "I see."
This is a task assigned by the general on the ground in person. Regardless of whether there is something wrong with the Queens Military District, past internships can help in future promotions, and there is no reason to refuse.
However, there is one last question.
Bai Yue: "You said about us just now. Besides me, who else will act together this time."
"Don't worry." The land general said, "I have already identified your teammates for this operation."
Not long after Bai Yue left the principal's office, two more people came to the office one after another.
The first person to enter was Mu Sihan.
Although he only attended the qualifiers in the inter-school joint sports, he still attracted the attention of the military due to the great contrast in appearance and strength and his outstanding performance in his debut.
The invitation letter from the Queens District Military Department was also sent to Mu Sihan.
After listening to General Lu's explanation, he didn't ask any further questions, and after saying "understood", he left the office.
The land general poured himself another cup of tea.
In his opinion, Bai Yue and Mu Sihan are more obedient, and he basically doesn't need to worry about it. But the next person is a little bit more difficult to get.
After contacting him, he didn't come, he didn't even knock on the door before entering, he just pushed the door and walked in.
He was holding his trouser pockets in his hands, looking very dragged.
"What's up?"
Look, it doesn't even say "Principal".
However, Land General is not someone who cares about such details. He still made tea for the other party and briefly explained the situation.
"Let me go?" Shang Yufei raised his eyebrows slightly, "Give it to someone like me, aren't you afraid I'll screw you up?"
Land will keep smiling.
This is also impossible. Queens, after all, sends only a handful of internship invitations. And among them, he must choose the most powerful.
General Lu: "If you want to be a soldier in the future, your internship experience in Queens will be a big plus. What's more, if you really find a problem, the military will give you corresponding military merit awards."
Shang Yufei was still not interested.
There are many ways to obtain military merit, there is no need to swim in this muddy water. Even professional investigators can't find clues, so it must be troublesome.
When the land general saw this, he didn't force it: "If that's the case, then forget it."
Shang Yufei didn't want to waste any more time. Turning to leave, he heard a sigh from behind him: "It seems that only Bai Yue and Mu Sihan can go."
Shang Yufei took a step.
He turned his head and frowned slightly: "Huh?"
The land general pretended to be puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"Who do you say is going?"
General Lu repeated: "Bai Yue, and Mu Sihan."
Shang Yufei hurried back to the desk and patted the table with both hands.
He didn't speak, but stared into the General's eyes.
No matter how strong he is, let Bai Yue do this kind of task in a first year. What is this man thinking
The land general also looked at him, his expression unchanged.
The brewed tea has not been touched, and it is already a little cold at this time. The surface of the water shook with ripples due to the clapping of the table just now.
After a while, Shang Yufei straightened up: "Very good."
He took the invitation letter from the desk and left the office.
Hearing that the door was slammed shut, Lu Langjun got up and picked up the teacup, pouring out the cold tea.
Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. I hope the performance of these students will not disappoint him.
The sun was shining brightly on this day, and it was the day to go to the Queens Military Department for an internship.
When Bai Yue arrived at the school gate, his two companions were already there early.
It's just that one is in the east and the other is in the west, and the distance is as far as the east and west hemispheres.
Bai Yue thought that the two had already participated in the sports meeting together, and the relationship should have eased. So I was a little happy when I heard that the two of them went to the internship together this time.
But now that I think about it, the situation does not seem optimistic.
As soon as he approached, the two raised their heads in unison.
Bai Yue smiled: "Good morning."
Mu Sihan didn't like to talk, just nodded slightly. Shang Yufei came over and dragged him away: "The car is here, let's go."
Not far away, the hover car was heading towards the school gate.
Mu Sihan frowned slightly and followed.
There was no one in the car. Shang Yufei directly brought Bai Yue to the last row.
After Mu Sihan got into the car, his eyes passed over the two of them. There was no expression on his face, and he seemed to be planning to sit down nearby.
"Wait." Bai Yue stopped him, "Come and sit, I have something to say."
Mu Sihan froze.
Bai Yue left the position next to him. Mu Sihan came over and was about to sit down when he saw a backpack thrown onto it.
Shang Yufei folded his arms: "There's nowhere to put the luggage."
Mu Sihan looked up.
It's just talking nonsense with your eyes open. There are obviously seats everywhere in the empty car.
Bai Yue saw it and picked up Shang Yufei's backpack.
This behavior is too childish, inexplicably reminds him of his elementary school days.
Just as he was about to put the backpack on the luggage rack, he was pulled.
"Hey!"
The other party seemed a little dissatisfied.
Bai Yue looked at him and said with a smile: "Senior, put your luggage on the luggage rack, okay?"
The tone, though gentle, was undeniable.
Shang Yufei let go of his hand wordlessly.
Mu Sihan finally sat down. Instead of sitting next to him, he sat far away and sat on the innermost side of the last row.
Still like the distance between the east and west hemispheres.
Bai Yue shook his head: "I received a call from Queens this morning."
They were temporarily assigned tasks over there. So before going to the air park, you have to take a long detour.
This mission is still associated with federal undercover agents. Although these people were caught, they were still on the d-312 star. It is currently being transported to other star systems in batches.
Although the d-312 star is prosperous, all cities are built around military schools, so there are not many prisons with high vigilance and strong professionalism.
And Queens, as one of the largest military headquarters, naturally also assumed the responsibility of detention.
The first task dispatched by Queens was to escort the undercover federal agents back together with the military.
After about two hours, they reached their destination.
However, this place is not as expected. It is said to be a prison, but the appearance is too luxurious.
The thick walls stretched out to both sides, with only a gate several meters high in the middle. At this moment, the door is also tightly closed, and there is no glimpse of the scenery inside.
This site, which is thousands of miles in circumference, is almost completely contained within the fence.
Bai Yue confirmed the location again.
There is no mistake, the location sent by the Queens Military Region is here.
There are almost no pedestrians nearby, the city is too far away, and the suspension car just now has left, and no one can find anyone to ask for directions.
Just when Bai Yue was about to contact Queens again, two heavy doors opened.
The sound of uniform footsteps could be heard in his ears.
A group of people in black uniforms walked out in an orderly manner. After standing outside, they were lined up with a terrifying momentum.
Everyone had a serious expression, their hands behind their backs, and a heavy air pressure emanated from their bodies.
Mu Si looked at them coldly. Shang Yufei raised his eyebrows with interest, wanting to see what these people were going to do.
Bai Yue tilted his head and was about to go up to ask questions. Then I saw those people suddenly turn around and take a step to each side to clear a path.
Then, footsteps were heard again.
Bai Yue saw a familiar figure walking out.
The lower body is stepping on the sun-drenched ground, and the upper body is shrouded in the shadow cast by the gate. He grinned, his flaxen hair a little darker.
"Bai Yue?"
Hearing the name, Bai Yue himself didn't react. On the contrary, Shang Yufei and Mu Sihan moved first, stroking their weapons at the same time.
Then in the next second, I saw the young man open his hands and smile brightly.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, welcome to the dark flag!"
