Chapter Forty-Eight: True Allies
"Is it necessary for fire handling training to be so realistic?" Jia Lai said with a puzzled expression.
However, immediately after everyone saw the smoke rushing out from behind the middle-aged man, the captain's expression changed drastically, and he didn't want to understand how a fire handling training without an open flame could develop into a real fire.
When he rushed into the lunar module, he found that there was nothing to see inside, and in less than five seconds he retreated from it again, immediately calling the fire department.
However, because there was no fire risk in the afternoon training, it was already five minutes later when the fire team arrived.
And the middle-aged man has basically explained what happened inside, and the captain is obviously suspicious of this, but this part of the content belongs to the work of the accident investigation team, and only what the middle-aged man said is a bit bizarre in terms of content, such as why the high school students set fire to the service module, why the iron door between the service module and the lunar module cannot be opened at a critical moment, etc...... But logically it doesn't seem to be possible to find any problems.
Therefore, the captain did not ask any more questions, and then the middle-aged man faced the same process as Zhang Heng when he escaped from the plane crash, first by the medical team for a physical examination, if the examination is not hindered, he will be questioned by the accident investigation team.
NASA is completely mad now, they haven't faced such chaos since its inception, and they look a little cute compared to the old die-hard moonshot opponents in Congress.
But on the other side, Jia Lai was ecstatic, he was still worried about how the middle-aged and high school students would deal with them, but he didn't expect that there was infighting between the two first, and the alliance that had just been formed in the morning would be broken in the afternoon.
Now that the fire department has confirmed the death of the high school student, there are only four people left who are competing for the moon in the end, and the middle-aged man is under investigation, obviously suspected by NASA, although Zhen Kuang's training results are ranked ahead of him, but because of gender, it is very likely that he will be brushed off when the final list comes out.
In this way, his hopes of completing the main quest have greatly increased.
Jia Lai couldn't even hide the joy on his face, although his teammates in the same period had just been buried in the fire, it stands to reason that even if he couldn't show his grief, he should try to remain solemn, but this sudden surprise had made him completely unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, and even the captain on the side couldn't help but look at him twice.
Zhang Heng knew that this was a very degrading move, because in the selection of astronauts, interpersonal skills are also one of the hidden items in the evaluation, after all, no one likes to be crammed into a claustrophobic and small space with undesirable people.
However, given Djarlai's difficult situation and current results, he does have plenty of reason to be happy about himself.
In contrast, Zhen Kuang was much more restrained, although there was a flash of joy in his eyes, but there was no other emotion to show otherwise, and he even expressed regret after the high school student's body was carried out.
On the other side, Zhang Heng, who was in a state of spectatorship throughout the whole process, was also a little surprised by this result.
Judging from the current developments, the high school student obviously died at the hands of his considered allies, but although the middle-aged man did a beautiful job, it was still a bit risky to choose this time to do it, although Zhang Heng believed that with his meticulousness and calmness, the investigation team could not find any conclusive evidence even if they suspected him on him.
But considering the situation he faced after killing the high school student, he obviously wouldn't put himself at a disadvantage of being one against the other, so Zhang Heng also had reason to believe that his ally was someone else.
At present, Zhen Kuang's suspicion is undoubtedly the greatest, although in Zhang Heng's observation, there is hardly much interaction between the two, but if the results are reversed, the target of the middle-aged people in this fire disposal training is not Zhen Kuang and Jia Lai from the beginning, but high school students, in addition to tricking high school students to go to the warehouse to get gasoline, the most important thing is to ensure that the two can be divided into a group.
And this is precisely because of Zhen Kuang's proposal, on the surface, Zhen Kuang chose to be in a group with Jia Lai out of vigilance, in order to ensure the safety of the two, but in fact, Zhang Heng has made it clear that he does not want to intervene in the conflict between the two sides, so her proposal is also equivalent to ensuring that the middle-aged people will be in a group with high school students.
If one of Zhen Kuang and Jia Lai is an ally of the middle-aged man, it can only be Zhen Kuang, not Jia Lai.
This actually explains why the middle-aged man chooses to play against high school, obviously in his assessment Zhen Kuang is more difficult to deal with than high school students, which is also in line with his usual way of thinking calmly and profit-first, and among the remaining people, he chooses the most threatening person to form an alliance and eliminate two weaker players, which is undoubtedly less risky.
Poor is the fat man Jalai, who is still dreaming of making it to the final list, but in fact, with the death of a high school student, his end is already doomed.
In this way, the trio list of the Apollo program also came out, it was Zhang Heng, the middle-aged man and Zhen Kuang.
This result is quite acceptable for Zhang Heng, in terms of training performance, the middle-aged man is the third among all players, and at the same time he is an engineer of the research institute, and he is even better than Zhang Heng in some basic theoretical disciplines, Zhen Kuang is not ideal in terms of performance, but mainly because she is a woman who is more biased at the same time, and her physical fitness and theory are very bad, but she plays well in spatial disorientation training, and she is barely qualified as a deputy.
However, there is one question that Zhang Heng has never figured out, that is, who is the person who killed Anthony before and attacked him.
It's not that he hasn't doubted Zhen Kuang, nor has he never suspected middle-aged people, but with their aircraft piloting skills and spacecraft simulation driving results, it is definitely not a wise choice for the two of them to treat him as a target as soon as they come up.
Zhang Heng always felt as if he had left something behind.
It wasn't until he finished his last theory class that he went outside his room and noticed the light peeking through the crack in the door and the sound of water rushing in the bathroom.
Zhang Heng took out the butter knife in his pocket and gently pushed open the door.
A male figure is wrapped in a bath towel and humming a little song while standing in front of the bathroom vanity mirror, shaving his beard.
But the next moment, the hairs on his Adam's apple suddenly stood on end.
"There's no need to be so nervous, I just want to come over and say hello to you, Commander, you don't want to kill your own Lunar Module pilot before the main mission is completed." The young man with weak energy raised his hands and smiled.
He looked good, not at all embarrassed and angry when he was caught taking LSD 20 hours ago.
