"That's a lot more than your paycheck, and you don't know where they went, right?" Robert smiled at her.

"What about 7,000 sets of cryogenic refrigeration equipment? You don't tell me that this was also given to Ahura because it was destroyed after expiration, right? ”

"You mean those super air conditioners? So what? Cascindi wondered.

"Instantly reducing the atmospheric temperature of 10,000 standard cubic meters to minus 40 degrees Celsius and running stably with conventional energy for 200 years, you call this kind of equipment 'air conditioning'? So what should you do once you start the people inside, do you put on a spacesuit? ”

"Zoroaster has only a population of 3 million, but you ask for a whole year's rations for a billion people at a time, and at the same time buy a cryogenic refrigeration unit to store it, ma'am, you really didn't have the slightest suspicion about this?"

“…… Suspect what? Are they going to hoard food and disrupt the market? But how is that possible, all of our reserve warehouses are almost full......" Cascindi didn't understand what Robert meant.

"Well, my bad, let's forget about this unpleasant conversation, Ms. Cascindy, I was really just suspicious at first, and this was relieved after talking to you, you see, you just ..... in this matter"

Just a fool. And such guys are emerging in an endless stream of important positions in the Silver Alliance. Kent picked up the pill and slowly put it in his mouth, he opened the jug of the dense liquid, took a small sip and swallowed the pill.

An inconspicuous thing that only a farmer on the outskirts of Chilian would talk about can have endless dangers behind it. Missing ettitanium, funds that came out of nowhere, Ahura's anomalous reserves, Bachman's colossal caverns, the Fakhler family, the Heisenberg family, the general elections of the Silver Alliance, the tearing up of the armistice, the destruction of the Bald human space station......

Robert's face was flushed from the pills, and countless small dots appeared on his otherwise smooth skin, and he reversed the image capture and looked at himself on the holographic screen with a wry smile.

In order to be able to work efficiently, the prescription he prescribed has now become a shackle that he cannot get rid of, as long as he does not take it for a period of time, he will be tired, drowsy, and slow in thinking.

Of course, the most unbearable thing for him was the lingering faint headache, but all this discomfort would be temporarily eliminated by the effect of the next pill and put him into his best state.

He was frustrated that these seemingly unrelated events, which seemed to be connected by a thin thread from a dimension, and that he could not understand the important links in them.

But then he thought of Joanna, of his wife's gentle smile and soft kiss, and that the taste buds in his mouth were a little sweet because of the excitement of the central nervous system, which was a side effect of the drug, and part of his reason was reminding him.

Six months and three days in a strange year, Robert couldn't help muttering to himself, it was the day he left home this time and did not return.

And his son Jonny, he picked up a photo of the mother and son from the table in front of him, and carefully looked at the nervous child in the photo, the sixteenth birthday of the Qilian Duck Moon, can he catch it?

Jonny was already strongly resisting him, and he could feel that his son, who had always shrunk behind him when he was a child, was now almost a different person, and was this a process that had to be experienced? A strong sense of loneliness struck him. It was a side effect of the drug, his sanity continued to remind him kindly.

He stood up, wiped out the holographic screen with a wave of his palm, pushed open the hatch and walked out of his personal office, making a beeline for the ship's central corridor.

He walked into the spaceship's central control room, which was filled with light and shadow, and more than a dozen holographic exclusive consoles surrounded the remote sensing seats of the officers, respectively controlling the life support, energy, navigation, propulsion, hull control, weapons, defense and maintenance of the entire spacecraft.

The crew worked methodically on the panel, while the rest of the crew, who were holding the hand-held panel for correction, referencing, and data analysis, stood up straight as soon as Robert entered, with their palms resting on their chests.

"Bureau." They spoke in unison.

"Keep moving." Robert walked to the front of the control room, the pupil scanning device of the hatch turned from red to green, and the door quickly slid to the side.

"Bureau." He was greeted by seven or eight core crew members from the command center.

He nodded, and sat down in the command chair in the middle of the room, with the bearded captain Lin Wei standing beside him.

"Lao Lin, can you go?" He looked at the black starry sky outside the huge porthole in front of him, and the 'Apostle' was docked at the moment on a ship with an ultra-long-distance transmission base station, and it was through this base station that the long-distance spaceship could send various signals and connect with its own world.

"The Leap Engine is fully charged, and it's ready to go." Lin Wei replied beside him, although he was the captain of this Shennong-class frigate with a strength of two hundred and twenty people, the 'Apostle' was the exclusive ship of the Comprehensive Planning Bureau of the Yinmeng Development Committee.

Robert. As the executive deputy director of the Planning Bureau, Kent traveled between galaxies all year round, so some people in the Planning Bureau called the "Apostle" "Kent's personal ship", and Lin Wei was under the orders of Robert. Kent had more days than the other three deputy commissioners combined.

"Bureau, I don't understand, you always have to do it yourself every time you sail, and you must go to the base to dock at the port when directional communication, you must know that the fan surface of the ultra-long-range particles emitted from the base station is too many to count, we just need to find one casually, we can achieve ultra-long-distance communication, why do you have to find a standard base station on the star map so hard?" Lin Wei complained to Robert while he was checking the ship's data.

"I like to sail in the stars, Lao Lin, although I am not an astronaut, I am very good at this, you can't deny that, right?"

"Well, you have a big rank, of course you say something." Lin Wei Cage joked, Robert. Kent's knowledge of ship navigation is an open secret in the Planning Bureau.

"As for the pedestal, only seeing the compliance equipment of the Alliance with my own eyes can make me feel at ease, you must know that more than ten years ago, a Kander traveling spaceship crashed in the Android Sea, it was completely a joke made by the 'boat people', they used gamma particles to send fake navigation messages, and in the Kander dictionary, there is no word lie. You should know about this accident, Lao Lin, this incident was a lot of trouble back then. ”

"I haven't heard of it, but we're not stupid Kande, the coordinates of the base station are marked on the star map, the characteristics of gamma particles are eternal straight lines, and the precise inversion on a navigation map can't you know whether it's true or false?"

"But you can never be absolute, can you? Moreover, the signal of the base station is absolutely stable, which ensures the continuity of some important calls. Robert explained.

"Come on, Bureau, admit it, you just have a communication habit." Lin Wei argued loudly.
