Liu Fang's face turned pale.
When they mentioned "going out" before, they just wanted to play on the ground for a few days.
As "illegal residents", they don't even have a city pass. Once they are kicked out, what awaits them is a life of wandering in the wasteland.
Liu Fang was no fool. Everyone knew the situation in the wasteland. Not to mention the terrifying cults and Zerg, they might not be able to survive the harsh weather alone.
"What's wrong? Don't you want freedom? Then I will give you freedom."
Liu Fang wanted to slap himself a few times.
If he had known Chu Yao was coming today, he would never have talked about these things.
This is not giving them freedom, it is clearly exile.
"Chu, Elder Chu... please give me one more chance. We won't dare to do it again. Just for my father's sake..."
For your father's sake? Who is your father?
Chu Yao thought for a long time but couldn't remember which elder in the sect had the surname Liu.
"If you're just momentarily possessed by evil, I'm not inconsiderate of you." Chu Yao said softly, "But I heard you did more than that. Not only did you resist work, you even took over other people's rooms and food, and even teamed up to disrupt the progress of the spacecraft construction... Is this true?"
"Well, well, we just..."
Liu Fang was shaking like a sieve, and seemed to want to argue, but Chu Yao was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
Not far behind Chu Yao, more than a dozen members of the company's security team had already taken their positions and were ready under Gong Xiaoran's orders.
At Chu Yao's command, the security guards handcuffed Liu Fang and others' hands behind their backs and escorted them towards another door leading to the ground.
"To prevent you from revealing the secrets of the base, I will modify your memories later. You will just try to live your life as ordinary people on the surface."
Meanwhile, a message spread through the company chat group: "Liu Fang and others formed a clique for personal gain, seized resources, bullied employees, and openly obstructed the spacecraft construction process. The company's top management has decided to expel Liu Fang and the others."
"No, no, Elder Chu, President Chu! We were wrong! Please give us another chance..."
Liu Fang and his companions were howling like ghosts and crying, their screams echoing in the huge underground building.
Many people felt sorry for the crying, but when they saw that it was these people, their remaining sympathy disappeared in an instant and they wanted to applaud.
Their bad deeds have long been seen by everyone.
Chu Yao followed the security forces while covering the hall with his spiritual sense, and his voice was clearly heard by all the Tianyin Sect members present:
"Some people don't need to feel lucky. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!
I don't care if you form cliques or factions. Just one thing: you can't cross the company's bottom line!
You all know the current situation on Lingyuan Star very well. I hope you all understand that this spaceship wasn't built for me alone, but for everyone here.
It's not easy to meet again here. If something like this happens again that undermines internal unity, don't blame me for not remembering our old friendship! I don't want to see the next Liu Fang in the company!"
The sound of the message was deafening and struck hard on the hearts of every Tianyin disciple.
Everyone's expression was stern. These words dispelled many people's petty calculations.
Liu Fang and others were taken away from the back door by security forces and put into a car.
Before getting on the bus, Chu Yao quietly used the secret technique of spiritual consciousness to erase everything about the base from their memory.
Compared to what she had done before, this punishment was already quite soft.
Although the wasteland was dangerous, it was not impossible to survive. As for how to survive, it depended on the fate of Liu Fang and the others.
She had to be ruthless, there couldn't be any tolerance for this kind of thing.
It's no big deal if they're slacking off and not working, but if they really run away from the base and something is exposed, all the hard work of the past three years will be ruined.
This is a big project that requires everyone to work together, and she is responsible for everyone.
In this way, it is also a way to scare the monkeys and deter others.
People who practice cultivation all have their own pride. They haven't recovered their cultivation yet. When they do, they might cause some trouble.
After dealing with Liu Fang's matter, Chu Yao had nothing to do at the base for the time being, so she went to see Su Huohuo.
This girl is really different now. There is even a separate room designed for her in the base.
Among the "tail" students who entered night school, Su Huohuo may be the one who made the fastest progress.
There was no door lock, Chu Yao knocked on the door gently, and pushed it open when Xiaohuo answered.
She was sitting crookedly at a large desk, her back slumped in the chair, her feet propped up on the edge, a mechanical keyboard resting on her lap...
In the direction corresponding to her feet, there were six 30-inch electronic screens, displaying densely packed characters.
Su Huohuo was swinging his feet while typing code, and from time to time he grabbed a few potato chips from the table and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Can't you sit up straighter?" Chu Yao smiled and patted her shoulder.
"What era is it now? Why are you still maintaining the traditional sitting posture?" After typing the last line of code, Su Huohuo slowly moved his feet off the table, took off the red-framed glasses on his nose, stood up and stretched.
Xiaohuo's outfit is quite simple, pajamas and a sweatshirt, very casual.
Her hair has grown a lot longer, her face has become more mature and less immature, and the way she combs her hair back has a bit of the charm of an adult woman.
Speaking of which, Chu Yao is not using any tricks now, she is just as she is now.
"Chu Xiaoye" was originally the equivalent of Chu Yao in her teens. Three years later, she had gradually returned to her original appearance of around 20 years old.
This way, it won't scare other people in the company who are unaware of the truth.
"What are you busy with?"
"The spacecraft's control system." Xiaohuo said concisely.
"Can you do so much by yourself? Do you want to hire a few more people?"
"More than enough. One person is enough for me. One more person would be in the way. And I have Xiaonan to help me."
"I see Xiaonan isn't here?"
"She went to the power supply room to charge. Let me see...it should take another half an hour."
Although the two had disagreements before, they have long since reconciled.
Chu Yao nodded, hesitated for a few seconds and then spoke:
"Xiao Huo, are you really not going to consider what I said before?"
She looked at the girl in front of her, and suddenly she was a little dazed. Three years had passed, and Xiaohuo seemed to be taller than her.
"Sister Xiaoye, I have made up my mind. You really don't need to persuade me anymore." Su Huohuo waved his hand.
"But you have spiritual roots."
