When he slowly woke up, he glanced at the time and realized he had rested for more than ten hours.
He was full of energy at the moment, only feeling a little hungry.
So he quickly changed his clothes and left the hibernation pod.
When we arrived at the restaurant, we found that there weren't many people there.
So he stood in line, yawned, and chatted with the people around him.
Just then, a familiar person at the nearby table waved to him.
Hu Zhen glanced into the distance and saw a girl from his class named Liu Ya.
Good morning. I didn't expect you to finish so quickly.
Hu Zhen had only seen the other person during shift changes, and with several hours to go before the shift change, he never expected to see him here.
Liu Ya took a spoon, scooped out a piece of cake, stuffed it into her mouth, and shrugged helplessly.
"There's no way to stop work, otherwise I'd probably still be working right now."
Hu Zhen was slightly taken aback after hearing this.
"What? Work has stopped? That can't be right. What could have caused the work to stop? Everything was fine when I left."
Liu Ya shook her head helplessly.
"Something's happened. They say we've unearthed a new type of substance that can absorb energy, so the people on Earth are demanding that we stop excavating here and wait until we've completed the necessary preparations before resuming mining."
Hu Zhen's eyes widened immediately after hearing this.
So he quickly urged the people in front of him to take their food, and then took his own things and sat down opposite Liu Ya.
"Tell me what happened. I just took a nap and so much has happened."
After stuffing a piece of bread into his mouth, Hu Zhen hurriedly asked.
Liu Ya shrugged helplessly and recounted everything that had happened that day.
"Actually, your supervisor is going to call a meeting with you later to talk about this. Sigh, this matter is really making me feel guilty. I'm really worried that we won't be able to complete our tasks and will be blamed again."
Upon hearing this, Hu Zhen's eyes flashed with shock.
Others may not know, but he clearly remembers seeing that strange red light in the mine a few days ago when he was mining.
If I'm not mistaken, that eerie red light is the glow emitted by that new type of ore.
Thinking of this, he felt a cold sweat break out on his back.
So he hurriedly took the chicken leg and bread from the plate and said apologetically to Liu Ya.
"Excuse me, could you please clear the plates for me in a bit? I have something urgent to attend to."
Seeing the other person hurriedly leave, Liu Ya was stunned for a moment.
"Wow, who is this person? They just left like that."
Helpless, Liu Ya could only reluctantly help the other person clear the plates, and then leave with her own things.
At this moment, Hu Zhen was stuffing something into his mouth while running.
Although I was choking painfully, I couldn't care less.
He had been sleeping for more than ten hours and was starving. If he didn't replenish his energy soon, he probably wouldn't even have the strength to run.
Especially now that they're still inside the spaceship, running around is a bit uncomfortable.
He quickly found the captain's office.
Knock knock knock.
There was a knock on the door. Liu Dong, who was sorting out his thoughts, shook his head helplessly after hearing the sound outside.
Who is it?
"Yes, it's me, Hu Zhen."
"Hu Zhen? What brings you here? You woke up so early today, isn't it before work hours?"
As Liu Dong spoke, he opened the door.
Seeing Hu Zhen's excited expression, I was somewhat surprised.
"What's wrong with you? You look flustered today."
"The captain is in trouble. I have something important to tell you."
As Hu Zhen spoke, he squeezed his way in. Liu Dong, who wasn't as strong as him, was pushed into the room and felt a bit annoyed.
"What exactly happened?"
Hu Zhen didn't stand on ceremony with the other party. He picked up a glass of water from the table and gulped it down to calm the blockage in his throat.
"What the hell? This is my cup! Hu Zhen, what are you doing?"
Seeing the other person like this, even Liu Dong, who has a good temper, was somewhat angered.
"Captain, are you coming back to hold a meeting to discuss the work stoppage and the new type of ore?"
The other party was slightly taken aback.
"You've heard the whole story, what happened? What's going on that you have to stop work? Why are you still upset? You don't want to rest?"
Liu Dong looked at the other person with a teasing expression. He had originally thought that Hu Zhen would be very happy about this news.
Seeing how anxious the other person was, I couldn't help but start to suspect that they might be thinking something.
Hu Zhen shook his head vigorously.
"No, if it were really because the work stoppage was giving us a break, I would be overjoyed. I was talking about something else. I know about that new type of substance."
When he finished speaking his last sentence, Liu Dong, who was sitting in the chair, immediately became unsettled.
"What did you just say? You discovered that new type of substance? You're not kidding me, are you?"
Hu Zhen shook his head vigorously.
"Boss, at a time like this, how could I dare to joke with you like this? I'm telling the truth."
Seeing that Hu Zhen didn't seem to be joking, Liu Dong stopped smiling, his expression showing a hint of surprise and fear.
"Then why didn't you expose it sooner?"
Hu Zhen also looked somewhat dejected.
