(Thanks to Miss Joan for the tip!) ）

The atmosphere in the inquiry room seemed quite harmonious, Jiang Sixue was in charge of asking, neither words nor momentum gave Fang Shi any sense of oppression, as if two friends were lightly talking about ordinary things. The young Lieutenant Lu Liang on the side rarely interjected, only occasionally asked a question or two, and the rest of the time he was seriously taking relevant notes.

Jiang Sixue went straight to the point from the beginning, asking Fang Shi what he saw and heard throughout the attack, and what he did.

Fang Shi recounted it quite smoothly, from the machine battle simulation room to the control of the phantom mecha, the battle with the alliance invading mecha, the battle with the enemy fighter, and the invasion of the enemy warship, to the explosion of the most warship, he slowly said one by one, of course, he naturally did not mention the parts that needed to be deleted, such as the matter about Nana.

After listening to Fang Shi's narration, Jiang Sixue asked some questions about the details.

Fang Shi didn't answer all of Jiang Sixue's questions, after all, he didn't know everything, and some aspects might involve his own secrets, his answer seemed to be very casual, but in fact, he was still very cautious in his heart.

The questioning lasted nearly two hours before it was over.

Jiang Sixue got up slightly, with a hint of a smile, politely watched Fang Shi leave the inquiry room, and when Fang Shi left, her face returned to her usual faint coldness, glanced at Lu Liang, and asked, "Are all records clear?" ”

Lu Liang immediately nodded, and with a gentle smile, he replied, "Hmm." By the way, what do you think of this Major Fangshi, sir? ”

Jiang Sixue's eyes flashed slightly. After a few pauses, he said unhurriedly: "Although he covered it up well, I believe he still hid a lot of things. ”

Lu Liang stretched out the index finger of his right hand and gently pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, indeed as Chief Jiang Sixue said, he also noticed that Major Fang Shi should have hidden some secrets just now. The investigation of this attack is very important to the military, and the people in charge of the investigation have a few brushes, and observing words and expressions can be regarded as their strength, although Fang Shi's performance is very calm, but from Fang Shi's inadvertent subtle movements, he still grabbed some information. In his opinion, asking questions can definitely be regarded as an art. Verbal communication is really only part of the inquiry. Often more and more important information comes from subtle details, such as a small glance or a subtle gesture that actually hints at a special message.

"Then should we ...... to Lu Shang" Lu Liang thought for a moment, and looked at the chief Jiang Sixue with inquiring eyes.

However, Lu Liang was interrupted by Jiang Sixue halfway through his words. I saw her shake her head. Said lightly: "No." First of all, he was not our suspect or prisoner, he was just cooperating with us in the investigation of the attack, and it was better for us to think of him as a companion; Secondly, although he hid some secrets that he did not want to tell. But what he answered should be true, not false, and the purpose of our investigation and inquiry has been achieved, so there is no need to make extraneous complications; In the end, he was the hero of the attack, and if nothing else, it is very likely that the military department will award him a Hero of the Imperial Medal, and it is very likely that it will be a golden Hero Medal. ”

"Golden Hero?" Lu Liang's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was immediately a touch of surprise on his face, and he knew what this golden hero medal meant.

In the Star Luo Empire, the Medal of Hero is the highest level of honor for the empire to commend individuals, and it is divided into three different colors, namely gold, silver and bronze, of which the gold level is the highest, and silver is second, that is to say, the golden hero medal symbolizes the highest honor of the empire to recognize individuals.

Jiang Sixue nodded slightly, and said: "The three warships attacked by the Galaxy Alliance this time were all destroyed by his hands, and the upper echelons of the military attach great importance to it this time, even if you can't get the Golden Hero Medal, then you should at least have a Silver Hero Medal." ”

Lu Liang sighed lightly, a trace of envy flashed on his face, and the thought of reporting to Lu Shang in his heart was completely gone, after all, the other party was the main contributor to this incident, not only would he be highly commended by the military department, but his rank of major was probably also mentioned to Lu Shang, and he was a little lieutenant who didn't want to be bored.

The investigation team conducted an investigation of the relevant personnel for five days, and Fang Shi had two other exchanges about the attack in addition to one exchange with Jiang Sixue, one of which was the personal appearance of Bai Changlong, the leader of the investigation team.

Towards Fang Shi, Bai Changlong was much gentler than the first day of the meeting, his knife-like old-fashioned cheeks were slightly more uncoordinated, and his eyes did not have the kind of sharp eyes that made people see through.

Calm and gentle, this is Fang Shi's impression of Bai Changlong, the two did talk a lot about the attack, but they also talked about a lot of events that had nothing to do with it, such as the future and the like, which made him really a little surprised.

After three interrogations, Fang Shi did not accept any further questioning from the investigation team, and the attack on the Galactic Alliance fleet seemed to have subsided.

In the blink of an eye, it has been more than ten days since the Phantom team returned to Military Base 32. After assisting the military attack investigation team to inquire about the work, Fang Shi, Ye Zhiqiu and the others fell into a seemingly indefinite wait, the space test of the Phantom mecha has not been completed, and there are still a few tests to be completed urgently, and the military needs to assist, but it seems that it will take some time to make specific arrangements.

In the days of waiting, Fang Shi did not have nothing to do, and he still tried to make a full arrangement every day, but compared to working hours, it was obviously much more relaxed and comfortable, and his arrangements were mainly for some entertainment activities, such as fierce battle simulation rooms, fitness venues, and so on.

After nearly twenty days of waiting, the Phantom Working Group finally waited for good news, the space test of the Phantom Mecha could start again, but this time the space test area was temporarily arranged by the 32nd military base, and it was only half a day's voyage away from the Wolf Tooth Star.

Most of the Phantom Mech's tests have been completed, with only a few remaining tests, and they are relatively simple ones. Ye Zhiqiu did not put forward too high requirements, with the strength of the No. 32 military base, it could still be easily done, but because of the attack and related investigations, it took a lot of time before.

Knowing that the phantom mecha can be tested in the sky again soon, Fang Shi, who has been idle for many days, is slightly happy, the previous series of tests in front of the phantom mecha have basically successfully reached the standard, and the remaining tests are all simple tests, reaching the standard should not be a problem, as long as all the tests are completed and the military affirms the evaluation, the design of the phantom mecha is considered a success. Teacher Huang Shujian's hard work has paid off.

But. Before conducting the second space test, Fang Shi, Ye Zhiqiu and other members of the Phantom team first participated in a military commendation meeting.

The commendation meeting was held at a large venue at military base 32. Thousands of people attended the commendation meeting, most of which were officers and soldiers who survived the attack on the Panther C-class battleship, and it was clear that the commendation meeting was aimed at the attack.

Major General Ge Tongfang, the supreme commander of the No. 32 military base, and Major General Bai Changlong, head of the investigation team, attended the commendation meeting. However, the two were not the highest-ranking military in the meeting. It's an old man in his sixties. Named Chavan, with the rank of general, he was the general responsible person sent by the Imperial military to be responsible for the attack on the alliance warships.

In the Empire. The generals with real power can also be regarded as military bigwigs-level figures, and it is obvious that the imperial military attaches great importance to the attack.

The commendation meeting followed the flow of the general regular meeting, and at first it was the speech of important figures, the first one was the slightly senile General Sawanzhou, and then Bai Changlong, Ge Tongfang and others also took the stage in turn.

To tell the truth, Fang Shi was not very interested in the routine speech on the stage, just applauded with the crowd, as for what they said, he almost went in and out of the left ear, the only thing that surprised him a little was that the young Colonel Gao Zixuan also came to the stage to speak.

However, Gao Zixuan's words are more of an apology, although the result of the attack was finally victorious, and the three attacking warships of the alliance were eliminated, but for the empire, it was also a heavy loss, only one seriously injured Panther C-class battleship was left of the seven battleships, and more than 10,000 imperial soldiers died in space, as the supreme commander of the fleet, he naturally couldn't do anything, in view of the result of the most disastrous victory, it is estimated that it is worth the merits.

After a series of slightly cumbersome speeches, it was the real commendation. The commendation part was personally presided over by Major General Ge Tongfang, the supreme commander of the No. 32 military base.

The first to be recognized were the groups that had distinguished themselves in the attack, including the Phantom Working Group, and a small medal was given to each team member, although it was only a third-class meritorious medal, but it was a good encouragement.

After commending the group, Ge Tongfang paused slightly and began to make personal commendations, which were first-class meritorious commendations, such as officers and soldiers who had outstanding performance in battle, of course, many of whom had died heroically.

The last part of the personal commendation can be regarded as entering the climax of the commendation meeting, and Ye Zhiqiu, Su Feichen, Yu Le and other six people who piloted the mecha to fight walked on the stage. Their contribution to this attack can be described as very large, first they wiped out more than 20 alliance mechs that invaded the interior of the Panther C-class battleship, and then they fought with the alliance fighters, destroying most of the enemy fighters, and finally rushed into the enemy warships together, and finally defeated the battleships attacked by the alliance, such a feat is extremely rare even on the eastern front.

Ge Tongfang first introduced the exploits of Ye Zhiqiu and others, and then officially awarded Ye Zhiqiu and the other six people the Bronze Hero Medal of the Empire. There are two other Imperial Bronze Heroes Medals, which were awarded to two deceased pilots who were tragically killed in the rush to the Ghost Battleship.

The person in charge of awarding the medal was General Sha Wanzhou, who came to the stage and gave an imperial military salute with Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Le, and personally hung the imperial bronze hero medal for several people.

The conference hall burst into warm applause.

Fang Shi applauded, he still knew something about the Imperial Hero Medal, although it was only a bronze Hero Medal, but it was definitely a supreme honor, because the Hero Medal was only given to the heroes of the Empire.

In the warm applause, Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Le and other six people walked off the stage.

Ge Tongfang spoke again unhurriedly and carried out the next round of commendation, and there was only one person in this round of commendation, which was Fang Shi.

Under the attention of thousands of people, Fang Shi quickly walked onto the stage in front of the commendation meeting, speaking in his heart, it was the first time he was so concerned, although he was still quite calm on the surface, but his heart was a little ups and downs, he could clearly feel that his heart was beating a lot faster, and his mood was slightly complicated, with joy and excitement......

Ge Tongfang first introduced Fang Shi's relevant achievements, then took a light breath and said: "According to the resolution of the Imperial Military Department Council, and after the review and approval of Chairman Huang Runshan, Major Fang Shi is hereby awarded a special military merit, his rank is promoted to lieutenant colonel, and the Imperial Golden Hero Medal is awarded. ”

Hearing the result that Ge Tongfang slowly read out, Fang Shi was secretly surprised, although he had heard that Senior Sister Ye Zhiqiu and Senior Brother Su Feichen had said that his military achievements were not small this time, but what he didn't expect was that he not only won the Imperial Golden Hero Medal, but was also directly promoted from Major to Lieutenant Colonel. Both rewards were a bit beyond his surprise, he had thought that he would get a silver medal at most, but he didn't want it to be a gold medal of the highest honor. As for the military rank, he also didn't expect that he would be directly promoted by a military rank after just one military merit, and it seems that it has only been about half a year since he got the rank of major, so the promotion speed is too fast.

"Smack, smack, slap......"

In the venue, the thunderous applause was extremely warm.

The soldiers under the stage applauded vigorously, and many of them had envy on their faces, they were also a little surprised, the military actually directly awarded the Golden Hero Medal, which is their highest honor as a soldier, who doesn't want to get a military medal of the highest personal honor in the empire personally given by Mr. Parliament Chief?

The applause came and went, wave after wave, like a tide.

Ge Tongfang gestured slightly, and the applause from the audience subsided, and then he continued to say in a righteous voice: "Next, I would like to ask Admiral Sha to personally award Lieutenant Colonel Fang Shi the Imperial Golden Hero Medal. ”

The applause was thunderous, and it rang out enthusiastically again.

Admiral Shawanzhou staggered onto the stage again, walked in front of Fang Shi, straightened his chest slightly, raised his right hand, and gave an imperial military salute.

Fang Shi immediately gave a standard military salute as well.

Sha Wanzhou smiled slightly, picked up the delicate box prepared by the personnel next to him, and slowly opened it.

Inside the delicate box lies a golden medallion, the Golden Medal of Hero, which only the Speaker of the Imperial Diet has the right to bestow.

Sawanzhou picked up the Golden Cancan Medal and carefully hung it on the ashlar.

Fang Shi took a deep breath, he never thought that he would become a hero of the empire, in his subconscious he was just an unknown little person, but he didn't want to hang an imperial golden hero medal at this moment.
