Star Programmer 11
The Weapons Research and Manufacturing Institute, after a year's work, has finally developed a more powerful surface-to-air weapon. Now, they await the development of a program to maximize the use of these weapons. To support this program, they will refine the various control instruments.
All military regions applied very actively, and after the weapons and control equipment were delivered, they immediately began to analyze the data and write programs.
The Third Military Region has always adhered to the principles of fairness and justice, giving everyone the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities, but if you are unable to seize the opportunity, you can only blame yourself for your lack of ability.
Because it's impossible to have all programmers focus solely on this one project, other necessary work must be done and can't be postponed or haphazardly done. Therefore, the military district assigned different timeframes to each team, splitting their probationary period into three phases. The team that completed the final phase first would be responsible for the programming of this new weapon.
After hearing what Fitch said, Segrie knew that McVey said that he would never like him no matter what, and he had been feeling resentful and unable to vent.
He wasn't just angry at McVey, he was also angry at Fitch. He felt Fitch had given up on helping him so easily, and kept trying to convince him to stop liking McVey. If he could just stop liking her so easily, he wouldn't have suffered for so many years.
Because Seglie didn't want to listen to Fitch's reasoning and counseling anymore, he pretended to have let it go and was slowly fading from caring about McVey. But in reality, his love had turned to resentment, and the hatred was growing stronger.
However, Fitch had a word that Segri did take to heart: he had to make himself even better in order to be looked up to by others. He felt that he wouldn't be liked by Mai Wei, but he would definitely prove that he was better than Tao Yuan. He wanted to let Mai Wei know that if he didn't choose him, it would be his loss.
This new surface-to-air weapon system upgrade, in Segri's view, was his best chance to prove himself superior to Tao Yuan. Tao Yuan had already stolen the limelight with his mecha upgrade last time, and this time he was determined to reclaim it.
Competition between the groups was fierce, but it was all based on genuine ability. Under strict military regulations, no one could resort to underhanded tactics. Therefore, if you wanted to advance, you had to work hard to seize opportunities.
Seglib was the ace member of Team 2 and had the title of genius programmer. The Team 2 leader was very happy to see that he was really trying his best this time.
Although Tao Yuan had just entered the program not long ago, he had already demonstrated his abilities before, so the team leader was very optimistic about him and placed his hopes on him.
"Team leader, I heard that your team is making very good progress. You must be very confident about this project, right?" The second team leader wanted to find out some information whenever he had the chance. He didn't have any bad intentions, he just wanted to know the other party's strengths so that he could have a better idea of the situation.
"It's okay. We just try our best. If we can get it, we will fight for it. If we can't, there's nothing we can do. We can't compare to you who have the trump card in hand." The team leader said with a gentle smile. Both of them are old foxes, and the team leader is also very good at Tai Chi.
"The new guy in your group really made a splash last time. Everyone can see that he's got real talent. We have an ace, but you also have backups. Don't be too modest."
"No matter what, we are all working hard for the prosperity of the empire. Even if other military regions complete the program first, it will be a good thing for the empire. Since everyone has the same goal, let's work together and make progress together." A team leader reminded him not to think that the competitors are only their few groups, there are other military regions, instead of wasting time inquiring about their progress, it is better to use all your energy to think about how to better complete the program.
"Yes, yes, you are right." The second team leader nodded repeatedly to show his agreement. Although he came to test the first team leader, he was still very confident in Segri, because the first team was stronger in mecha programs, while the second team was stronger in other weapon control instrument programs. Segri was their trump card and was working particularly hard, so he was not too worried that their team would lose to the first team.
Besides completing the new programming project, Tao Yuan had all other tasks assigned to him by others. Only Maiwei's Class A program maintenance still required his personal responsibility. After all, Maiwei's mecha was significantly different from other mechas, and since Tao Yuan had personally programmed it, he was the only one who could better perform the maintenance.
But when Tao Yuan was maintaining the system for him, he couldn't avoid being harassed by him, such as touching his hand and kissing his face. In short, he couldn't be idle.
"Could you please just stay here quietly for a while? You keep harassing me like this. When will I ever be done with this?" Tao Yuan looked at him dissatisfiedly.
"But I can't help it. You are right in front of me. I just want to kiss you and touch you." Mai Wei pinched Tao Yuan's chin and kissed him hard on the mouth. Tao Yuan's fragrant and soft lips made him feel addicted.
"You have to endure it even if you can't help it." Tao Yuan pushed his face away with force, then pushed him out of a certain range and said to him seriously, "You are not allowed to cross this range, otherwise I will not come to your place this month and will not open the door for you."
"Did you use some kind of love potion on yourself? Otherwise, how could I be so addicted to it?" Whenever Mai Wei looked at Tao Yuan, the love in his heart kept growing, so he really had some doubts as to whether Tao Yuan had some kind of soul-snatching technique or something like that.
"I just wanted to seduce you. I gave you a drug that will make you infatuated with me the moment you see me. What can you do about it?" Tao Yuan turned around and glared at him.
"You can seduce me specifically, or drug me only, but you are not allowed to drug others as well."
"That's hard to say. After all, I can even seduce you, so it's normal to attract others, right? No matter how powerful I am, I can't control whether others like me or not."
Mai Wei fell into deep thought because of Tao Yuan's words.
Tao Yuan was originally irritated by the trouble he was causing, so he deliberately annoyed him. However, Mai Wei felt that what Tao Yuan said made sense. In his heart, Tao Yuan was incomparable to anyone else. He was full of advantages. Such a good person would definitely not only attract him, but others would also be attracted to him. There would definitely be many people who would spy on him, so he had to keep a close eye on them.
When Tao Yuan and Mai Wei left the mecha cabin and landed on the ground, Fitch happened to be standing opposite and talking to someone. When he saw the two people coming down, he was stunned for a moment, and then watched them leave.
Fitch went to apologize to McVey some time ago. McVey didn't say that he would forgive him, but he didn't say that he didn't forgive him either. Although he seemed to be no longer angry, it was obvious that he no longer regarded him as a friend or a brother as before.
Fitch felt quite disappointed, but he also knew that he had indeed done something wrong, and that Mai Wei's anger was understandable. He had originally thought about slowly repairing his relationship with Mai Wei, but despite his thoughts, he hadn't taken any action. Because during this period, the more he deliberately avoided Tao Yuan, the more he couldn't help but want to observe his every move.
He felt that his thoughts had changed, which was obviously different from before when he deliberately approached Tao Yuan. This made him a little nervous, because he already knew how much Mai Wei liked Tao Yuan, and he could still feel justified in pretending to approach him. However, when his thoughts really changed, he was even more afraid to face Mai Wei.
A month later, Tao Yuan completed the third phase of testing first and secured for a group the program responsibility for the new weapons.
Seglie and everyone in Group 2 had never imagined that Tao Yuan had completed three phases of testing in just one month, while they hadn't even finished halfway. Even more astonishing was that Tao Yuan and his team had completed the entire process in just three months.
The time given by the military top brass was between half a year and a year, but Tao Yuan completed it in just three months. His fame spread not only to the major military regions, but also to the entire Southern Alliance Empire as soon as the military announced that the latest surface-to-air weapons could be put into use. However, because the identities of military personnel had to be kept confidential, they did not know who he was.
Everyone in the military region was talking about Tao Yuan, and the Program Department was no exception.
"Isn't this amazing? Genius isn't enough to describe him."
"Isn't it? This is truly a promising future."
"I've always wondered, General Maiwei is such a strict person, yet he still doesn't have a programmer dedicated to his mecha. He must have been such a talented programmer to be able to get special approval to bring him in. Now it seems General Maiwei's vision is right."
"So, he will most likely become General Maiwei's personal programmer."
"With his abilities, he's fully qualified to be General Maiwei's personal programmer, but..."
"Just what?"
The man glanced in the direction of Segri's office and found that he was not there, so he continued, "It's just that Segri has worked so hard for so long to become General Maiwei's exclusive programmer. If Yi Yu becomes the exclusive programmer, he will definitely be very sad, right?"
"But there's nothing we can do about it. Mecha programming isn't his strong point, so he should naturally give it to someone more capable. Even if he has a special relationship with General Mai Wei, public is public and private is private. He should still have some awareness of this, right?"
"Come to think of it, Yi Yu has been in the department for two or three years now, but General Mai Wei has never come to see him. General Mai Wei used to occasionally come to see a team leader, and now he occasionally comes to see Yi Yu, but he never stops by his office to see him. Segri takes the initiative to greet him, but General Mai Wei always seems very cold. I'm wondering, is he really not the kind of relationship that Segri claims he is?"
"I've suspected it for a long time, but it's hard to bring it up because every time Segiri talks about General Maiwei, it seems like they're already together. But after observing them for so long, it doesn't seem like they're together anymore."
Those people thought that Segri was not there, and when they talked about him and Maiwei, they said everything they wanted to say.
Segri stood against the wall in the corridor outside, listening to their conversation clearly. He closed his eyes and suppressed his unhappiness, waiting for them to start talking about other topics before turning around and walking in.
Although those people were no longer talking about Segrie and Maiwei, they still felt a little embarrassed when they saw Segrie come in. After everyone was silent for a few seconds, they greeted Segrie.
Segri greeted them with a smile, as if he had not heard what they had just said. After greeting them, he was about to go back to the office, but suddenly heard someone say that Mai Wei was here, so he turned around to look over.
Mai Wei came to see Tao Yuan, so naturally he went straight to Tao Yuan's office as soon as he entered the door.
After those people watched Mai Wei enter Tao Yuan's office, they looked at Segri and somehow felt a little sympathy for him.
Segri still pretended not to feel anything, smiled at them, and went back to the office.
After Segri entered the office, those people immediately started discussing in a low voice.
"See? Segri is standing right here, but General Maiwei acted as if he didn't see him and didn't even glance at him."
"I suddenly feel a little sorry for Segri. Those things he said before were meant to make us think there's a chance he and General Maiwei could be together, right?"
"Of course it is, but when it comes to love, both parties must be willing. If only one party is willing, it will be difficult to succeed."
After returning to his office, Segri clenched his fists to control his emotions. Then he opened his communicator and sent a message to someone who had been pursuing him for many years. The person now worked in the intelligence agency, and Segri asked him to help him investigate Tao Yuan's past. He felt that since Tao Yuan was so powerful, it was impossible that he had never heard of him before.
Segri was looking forward to finding out some of Tao Yuan's dark history, so that he could at least vent his anger.
