When he heard Xia Chujian explain the problem from another perspective, he understood where his problem lay.
The problem was that he planned to cancel Xia Chujian's grades without giving them a chance to speak for him.
Even in a military court, the defendant is allowed to speak.
They were so good that they just attended the trial in absentia.
Pei Zijing immediately corrected his mistake.
He said sincerely: "Xia Chujian, Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi, I was inconsiderate."
"You are absolutely right. Just because you have good grades and others cannot pass the assessment, your scores should not be cancelled."
"I am the chief instructor of the base. I have a veto over the assessment results."
"I will declare that this time the results are valid, and only the four of you will receive full marks."
Xia Chujian's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but climb up the pole again: "...No extra points? We got here in twelve hours! This must be a new record!"
Mao Yonggui hurriedly pulled her hand and winked at her, telling her not to go too far.
Xia Chujian also knew that he had gone too far and was pushing things too far. He smiled embarrassedly and secretly warned himself to control his mouth...
Pei Zijing still rejected her patiently: "It's impossible to get extra points. After all, you didn't fly here by yourself, but took a shortcut."
"Luck is certainly a form of strength, but it doesn't play a decisive role."
"Breaking the record is impossible. Traveling through a wormhole doesn't count as flight time, so it's impossible to break the record."
Xia Chujian curled her lips and said, "Okay, as long as you give us full marks, we will suffer a little loss."
Pei Zijing: "..."
When has this girl ever suffered a loss?
She doesn't feel guilty about saying this!
Pei Zijing coughed and said, "Where are your fighter planes? The research lab at the base is very interested in your fighter planes and wants to study them."
Xia Chujian smiled and spread his hands: "Chief Instructor Pei, you don't know yet, right?"
"Don't know what?"
"The four of us had our fighters taken away by the Special Security Bureau a long time ago. Not only you, but even we have no chance of getting our fighters."
Pei Zijing was surprised: "He was taken away by the Special Security Bureau? What are they going to do?"
He had indeed just woken up and was still trying to understand the situation.
This is something he hasn't realized yet.
Xia Chujian smiled and said, "We don't know, and we don't dare to ask. Why don't you ask the Special Security Bureau yourself?"
Pei Zijing certainly didn't dare to do that. He said awkwardly, "Forget it, I'll report it and have the military contact the Special Security Bureau."
Xia Chujian's heart moved. It wasn't the research lab at the base that was interested in the four of them's fighter planes, but the military...
She blinked and asked, "Chief Instructor Pei, why is the base's research lab interested in our fighter jets?"
Pei Zijing said: "Because a new wormhole has appeared in the asteroid belt this time, your fighters are the first to pass through that new wormhole."
"Probably to study the magnetic field properties and strength of emerging wormholes, as well as conduct positioning and orientation research."
Xia Chujian was like listening to a foreign language and couldn't help asking, "What is the positioning and orientation research of wormholes?"
Pei Zijing glanced at Mao Yonggui and the other three and found that they were also staring at him with wide eyes, looking very interested.
He thought about it and felt that it would be a good idea to do some popular science about wormholes, so that they wouldn't still think that they flew through the asteroid belt on their own ability, so why shouldn't they be given record-breaking achievements?
Pei Zijing then said, "You should know that there is also a fixed wormhole connecting Kanli and Zangge. Travel between the two planets does not necessarily require flying through the asteroid belt."
"The reason the base considers flying over the asteroid belt as a training assessment is because it's a one-way flight. We have other options, so we don't have to worry about not being able to return."
“Those are fixed wormholes; their positions and the directions of transmission at both ends are fixed.
"But this fixation was formed after millions of years of consolidation."
"But an emerging wormhole is different. Its magnetic field and internal structure are changing."
"Not only is its position constantly changing, but even the direction it leads to is uncertain."
"Also, the asteroid belt where it is located is a place where the magnetic field changes very frequently, so it is hard to say when this wormhole will stabilize."
Xia Chujian knew very little about "wormholes" and couldn't help asking, "What happens if it stabilizes? What happens if it doesn't stabilize?"
Pei Zijing patiently explained: "If it can be stabilized, then it will be like the fixed wormholes currently owned by the Beichen Empire, that is, the starting point and destination of each crossing will be the same."
"That's what you said, it can be used as a means of transportation."
