Chapter 39 Chick He is a child who grew up under me

Ophiuchus straddles the celestial equator, casting countless stars on the dark black curtain of the universe, and the afterimages of airships flash across the space orbit.

It has been several months since the second star base welcomed this batch of new recruits, and it is time to inspect the results. The federal military will decide whether these greenhorns should stay or go based on the final assessment.

When these new recruits received this message, the last round of training for the day had just ended.

"How come the exam is coming up? I'm not ready yet."

Li Ran crossed his legs and drank a nutritional supplement. He said to the Alpha, "Then next time you go to the battlefield, tell the enemy that you are not ready?"

"Li Ran, what do you mean?!"

Li Ran threw the empty nutritional supplement into the air, and it drew a perfect arc in the air, and the discarded empty tube just fell into the recycling bin.

"Literally."

"You!" The Alpha rushed over but was held tightly by Xu Tianyang at the side.

"He...he is just like that. Don't be angry."

Li Ran raised his eyes slightly. Xu Tianyang was a stutterer and it seemed like he couldn't even persuade others.

"Who do you think you are? You think you are so great just because you have a brother who is a second lieutenant."

"I've already inquired about it. Your brother offended someone and was exiled to a desert planet where no one lives. Do you really think you are the descendant of a military family?"

When Li Ran heard the word "brother", his face suddenly changed and he raised his foot to kick someone, but fortunately Cheng Zhi who was standing by hugged his waist.

"Do you have the guts to say that again?"

Alpha's eyes turned bloodshot and he roared with gritted teeth.

Cheng Zhi, who was trying to stop the fight, felt that Li Ran was as strong as an ox, so he had to drag the man to a safe area by force.

"No one from a real military family is as arrogant as you. You are always so sarcastic and arrogant. I have tolerated you for a long time!"

"Come on, hit me if you can."

Xu Tianyang glanced at the completely enraged Li Ran, stood between the two of them, and stuttered, "Say less."

"What are you talking about!"

Ji He frowned. He could hear the noise made by his new recruits from a distance and spoke coldly with anger.

"Hello, instructor."

"The instructor is here!"

Naturally, he also received the assessment notice for the new recruits, and thought he would mobilize them, but he didn't expect to run into the scene where the two Alphas under his command were about to fight.

Xu Tianyang was stuck between the two men and was punched twice for no apparent reason. He didn't know who hit him and looked a little aggrieved.

"Fighting is strictly prohibited in the military, don't you know?"

Ji He raised his eyes and looked at the angry Li Ran, then looked at the other Alpha. His originally gentle face became very serious.

"If you have the energy, you might as well think about how to get a good grade in the assessment."

"Instructor, it was Li Ran who started it first."

The Alpha's face was calm except for a slight frown, as if he was provoking the irritable Li Ran.

"Report to the instructor, he was the first to talk nonsense and use provocative words." Li Ran said, pointing at the Alpha's nose.

Ji He hummed softly and said, "You two, each of you will be locked up for a day and write a 1,000-word oral reflection to light up my brain."

Li Ran put his hands down, still staring at the Alpha, looking unconvinced, until Ji He walked up to him and said, "Especially at times like this, the more you have to keep your composure."

Ji He looked at the young and energetic Li Ran and continued to persuade him in a low voice: "You don't want Li Lie to be disappointed because of you, do you?"

Li Ran took a deep breath, and the angry pheromones slowly receded from his blood vessels.

"Instructor, is this test difficult?"

"I have sent a copy of the detailed guidelines to each of your laptops, with some points that need your attention. Remember to read it again before the test."

"The instructor is so nice. Long live the instructor."

Ji He didn't think he was a very good instructor, and when he heard such praise, his ears turned red with embarrassment.

Li Ran, with a sour face, was forced to be sandwiched between Xu Tianyang and Cheng Zhi to prevent him from having another conflict with others.

"Instructor, will you train new soldiers in the future?"

When Ji He heard this question, he was actually not sure either, and only said, "If the organization needs me, I will certainly obey orders."

"Will you forget about us when you have the next generation?"

Somehow, a somewhat sad topic was brought up.

Ji He cleared his throat and promised, "I won't forget you."

"I will not forget any of you."

Apart from the factor of hyperamnesia, Ji He also subjectively wanted to remember every recruit he had ever led.

A group of Alpha recruits sat around the Beta instructor. Some of them were impulsive, some had low self-esteem, and some were smart. The only thing they had in common was that they were all young.

They are the future of the Union Military.

These arrogant Alphas, from the moment they learned that their instructor was a Beta, almost openly expressed their doubts and disapproval of Ji He.

It was not until Instructor Beta turned the tide in the mecha class that the recruits changed their views of him. Then, during the field training and the battle between the red and blue teams, Ji He walked into their hearts step by step with his personal ability and good character.

"I hope everyone can do their best for their future and not feel any regrets."

“It’s a lot of pressure.”

Xu Tianyang sat cross-legged and scratched his already messy hair.

"The result of this assessment cannot determine your whole life, it just guides you in a different direction."

"Instructor, if I am assigned to a planet far, far away, will I be able to... see you again?"

After the assessment, only a small number of recruits can stay on Ophiuchi II.

No matter how powerful an Alpha is, he will become anxious when facing the unknown fate, and he can't help but have some feelings of jealousy when looking at the instructor who has led him all the way.

Xu Tianyang's pair of black eyes, which occasionally showed a bit of stupidity, inexplicably made Ji He feel soft-hearted at this time.

He should have said "All good things must come to an end", but after thinking about it, he said to Xu Tianyang "If we are destined to be together, we will meet each other."

Li Ran, who was standing by, reached out and tapped Xu Tianyang on the head, saying, "Why are you so unmotivated?"

"You haven't even taken the exam yet, and you're already thinking about a planet far, far away?"

Xu Tianyang rubbed his poor head and said in defense: "Well, my ability is limited now."

Ji He suddenly remembered the first time he saw these Alpha recruits. They were also sitting on the ground casually like this, but they were not as familiar with each other as they are now.

"As long as there are no regrets, it's fine." Cheng Zhi said in a gentle voice.

"Instructor, I'm not trying to flatter you. I really think you're amazing. If you weren't on Planet Two, you would definitely have a bigger stage."

"What nonsense are you talking about? There are so many people who want to stay on Planet Two but can't. What's more, the instructor is the colonel's subordinate. Do you think you can leave just because you want to?"

When Cheng Zhi heard this, he glanced at Ji He, remembered the unknown relationship between the instructor and the colonel, and thought that maybe they would always be together.

"Well, it's getting late."

"Let's all go back and rest."

Ji He stood up, put on the military cap in his hand in front of the mirror, and walked out.

Cheng Zhi kept staring at the instructor. Beta stood up, put on his hat, pushed the door and left, until the thin and strong figure completely disappeared from his sight.

After finishing a day's work, Ji He was about to go to the non-commissioned officers' dormitory when his computer suddenly received an urgent message.

The sender above is shown as General Huo Yingzhan.

Ji He moved his neck, thinking that he was dazzled, but the words "Yu Bai" and "Ying Zhan" were very different. The information of colonel and admiral corresponded to different color marks on the optical computer.

The federal military has a strict hierarchy, and all orders are issued layer by layer. It is almost impossible for a general officer to contact a non-commissioned officer.

Ji He didn't even know that Admiral Huo had come to the second planet. After all, his military rank was not high enough in the federal military.

If there was no bug in the system, then there was only one possibility: Admiral Huo asked him to go through a special channel, perhaps because he did not want others to know about it.

"Did the Admiral find anything?"

"Or is it because of the Colonel?"

In short, all of these points made Ji He feel a bad premonition in his heart.

Sergeant Beta frowned slightly, and his hesitant steps revealed that he did not want to face Admiral Huo.

It would have been great if the colonel was here at this time, but he had received the mission to wipe out the reactionary forces and was not at the base.

"We have to face it sooner or later."

It was Ji He talking to himself.

The name Huo Yingzhan was an unattainable existence for the federal soldiers.

Even though Ji He had participated in the other party's wife's birthday banquet, he was just an inconspicuous non-commissioned officer and not a guest who could communicate with Admiral Huo on an equal footing.

Ji He took a deep breath and waited for the automatic door in front of him to slowly move to both sides before he walked in.

"Sergeant Ji."

"arrive."

Sergeant Beta, in his meticulous military uniform, saluted Admiral Alpha.

Huo Yingzhan has a stern and serious face. When there is no expression on his face, he looks very unapproachable.

He didn't ask Ji He to sit down, so Ji He had to stand all the time.

Admiral Huo walked up to Ji He and swept a cold gaze over him, freezing him from head to toe.

"Admiral?"

To be fair, if those things had not happened, Huo Yingzhan would not be able to find any fault with Ji He.

Although he was a Beta, he was still somewhat useful to the federal military. But he should never have thought that about Yu Bai.

"Jihe."

"yes."

Admiral Huo was taller than him, his eyes loftily suspended in the air, as if he was thinking about how to start speaking.

He didn't plan to do anything too extreme. As long as these two people broke up, everything would be back on track.

"You have been in the military for a few years now. Do you plan to stay at the main base?"

Ji He raised his eyes. He knew that General Huo's words were more than just superficial, so he answered directly, "I don't understand what you mean. Why did you come to me?"

"I want you to leave Planet Two."

"To put it more clearly, it means leaving Huo Yubai."

Ji He clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the shock and fear in his heart of being discovered, and said with a bit of bitterness: "I..."

"I will not leave the Colonel."

When Admiral Huo heard this, he frowned unhappily and said, "Ji He, do you think you are worthy of him?"

"If it wasn't pheromone disorder, if Alpha wasn't in a susceptible period, do you think he would need you?"

"He is a child who grew up under my command. I know him better than you do."
