Just as the handover officer said through the physical line, through the glass of the airtight gate, Wang Ping'an saw that there were indeed a lot of people waiting on the dock outside.

Among the crowds, Wang Ping'an found Su Jianying's stinky face like canned herring stewed puffins at a glance.

Wang Ping'an poked Angeli: "Look there, that's Colonel Su Jianying, commonly known as the 'old lady', she always looks for me." ”

As soon as the words fell, the airlock clicked open, and then the head of the gendarmerie who led the team came up first and saluted Wang Ping'an: "Lieutenant, let's take over the stowaways Lu Aoli and Lu Fengxian." ”

After all, the two children were smuggled and must be handed over to the gendarmes to go through the procedure.

Lu Aoli looked at the blue hat of the gendarme in fear, and Wang Ping'an patted her on the shoulder: "The gendarmes I know are actually quite good, and those rumors are a bit exaggerated." ”

The head of the gendarmerie said solemnly: "I don't exaggerate, but I just treat what we do to the enemy as we do to everyone." ”

What's the matter, it's exaggerated and wronged you, right?

Since everyone has said so, Wang Ping'an can only seriously correct: "Well, it's not an exaggeration, they are the murderous and terrible gendarmes." ”

Lu Aoli took a step back obviously.

Angel soothed, "Don't worry, no matter who it is, they won't do anything bad to a cute little girl like you." ”

Gendarme: "Actually, she committed the crime of smuggling, and she should go to a juvenile correctional center." ”

Lu Aoli was even more scared.

Wang Ping'an could only say to the child: "Don't be afraid, be brave, and bear the consequences of your actions, so that you are a qualified successor, isn't it?" ”

Lu Aoli swallowed her saliva, then looked at the gendarme with a very determined expression and said, "Uncle, I know, I'm not afraid, I'll go with you." ”

The serious gendarme smiled slightly, but immediately froze: "Then come." Because of your age, we won't be handcuffed, but will lock your spacesuit and don't try to escape. ”

"Hmm."

At this time, the gendarmes who entered the cabin first had already put Lu Fengxian's body into a special incubator. The group turned and boarded the small vehicle for movement inside the space station.

When the vehicle drove away, Lu Aoli looked back at Wang Ping'an and waved her hand gently.

After sending off the gendarmes, Wang Ping'an looked at the detachment officer led by Su Jianying with a bitter face.

Wang Ping'an saluted and reported very energetically: "Report to the team leader, the PQ51 crew has successfully completed the voyage from Earth to Mars, please instruct." ”

Su Jianying returned a salute, and then said coldly: "Successfully completed the voyage?" You threw so many goods, and you still call it smooth? You are a grave dereliction of duty! There were two children in the cargo hold that you found out after fifteen weeks, and then in the process of disposal, there was also a major safety incident, which led to the death of civilians on board!

"Don't you want to fly any more voyages, get ready to go to the logistics warehouse! Then you'll be dealing with countless reports for the rest of your life, and that's the best fit for you, and you can hone your bad character! ”

Wang Ping'an replied unceremoniously: "If you look carefully at the logbook, you will find that my daily routine inspection is very careful, but there is a problem with the dynamic induction of the warehouse, which is the fault of the L2 maintenance class, not mine." ”

"You've learned how to shake the pot!"

"It's not about throwing the pot, it's about stating the facts. In addition, I had already asked before departure to postpone the launch window and replenish enough water. If we were carrying a standard amount of redundant water, that is, five hundred tons, we would not have to throw any cargo at all.

"My request should be recorded in the ship's black box and in the L2 Tower's communication log."

Su Jianying: "So you still plan to push the pot to the tower?" ”

"It was the leader who was on duty at the tower at the time. I think I've done my best in handling emergencies this time, and I don't have any fault, and if you want to punish me with this and transfer me to the warehouse, I'll have to complain to the Soldiers' Council about your retaliation for taking advantage of your duties. ”

Su Jianying said angrily: "What did I retaliate against?" Okay, I still have a holiday with you, don't I? ”

Wang Ping'an: "Whether it is left to the psychologists to judge, I guess they and the supercomputer will give a fair evaluation." ”

When Wang Ping'an said this, Angri watched with a frown on the side. She obviously has a new understanding of why Wang Ping'an has not been promoted for so many years.

Colonel Su Jianying took a few deep breaths, and then said in a much calmer tone: "Wang Ping'an Wang Ping'an, Wang Scourge, your understanding of military regulations and the setting of various institutions is simply master, you always know how to get rid of responsibility!" ”

Wang Ping'an: "Shouldn't you be familiar with military regulations?" I'm a Space Force soldier, and one of my vocations is to memorize and act in accordance with the military rules. ”

Su Jianying: "Okay, good!" Then let's see how the above and the supercomputer evaluate, and I'll write a report and transfer you to the warehouse! You'd better write a report that's detailed enough that you don't have a bunch of excuses when the computer approves to transfer you to the warehouse! ”

Wang Ping'an nodded: "I will write, not only will I write a detailed report, but also write a complaint, and transfer the tower duty leader who asked us to launch to take charge of the warehouse, otherwise he will harm others in that position." ”

Su Jianying was so angry that the corners of her mouth were trembling: "You write, you can write." This is your power, you must have studied the military regulations, you are a thorn like you, it is a discord in the space force! ”

At this time, the instructor floated up and said to Wang Ping'an: "Actually, we have all seen the preliminary investigation results given by the L2 side of the sun, and your responsibility is actually only that you have not found the two children hiding in the warehouse for a long time."

"However, the routine maintenance of the robots and drones on the spacecraft has not found any abnormalities, and it is not too much of a problem if you don't find it. After all, this trip transported a lot of living animals, and when we set off, we encountered accidents, which caused many containers to be sealed and broken, and there are many places to hide, which is understandable.

"In the final analysis, it was you who took too much of a loophole and acted too out of line to make Colonel Su so angry. You should reflect on your own problems! ”

Su Jianying: "He can reflect, the sun will come out of the west!" ”

Wang Ping'an's mouth was as always: "Instructor, can you understand what you just said that you also admit that Colonel Su has substituted his personal prejudice against me into his work?" ”

"You guy!" The instructor had an angry and funny expression, "If it weren't for the fact that those of us who study psychology are all easy to talk to, I would have agreed with Colonel Su and sent you to the warehouse!" ”

Wang Ping'an: "So you don't agree this time?" ”

"I don't agree, I just said that your fault is only in not finding the smuggled child for a long time, and it is okay to judge you for negligence at this point. I will write my proposal as such, and when the time comes, I will submit it to my superiors separately from Colonel Su's opinion. ”

Wang Ping'an: "But this one negligence, my promotion at the end of the year was in vain." ”

"You deserve it, who made you negligent?"

Colonel Su snorted: "You still want to be promoted?" I heard that you also applied to participate in the Centauri Project? Don't even think about it, if I hear that you've been selected for this program, I'll use all my influence to get you kicked out. ”

Wang Ping'an did not speak poorly this time, but looked at the colonel with hostile eyes.

The colonel smiled: "Hmph, mentioning this will poke you in the sore spot, right?" Okay, in the future, I will add a sentence to your annual evaluation, 'It is especially not recommended to join projects such as the Centaur Project'. ”

The instructor comforted Wang Ping'an beside him: "This plan is actually not affected by our level, the candidates are all the generals at the highest level of the Space Force, and the supercomputer decides, you don't have to worry too much, you should enter or will enter." Lao Su was talking angrily. ”

At this time, Colonel Su suddenly remembered Angli, who had not spoken next to him, and turned his head to look at her: "This is the partner that the supercomputer has given you?" I knew that when you took the Silver Star, I said how can supercomputers be so reliable, but now it seems, hum. ”

Angli saluted: "Second Lieutenant Angli de Lyon, give Commander Wang Ping'an as an extravehicular operator." ”

Colonel Su stared at Angri for a few seconds before changing the tone of the deputy mother to comfort the disobedient daughter: "This Wang Ping'an is a famous heartthrob on our team, his uninhibited style is particularly effective in fooling little girls, and then he can also play the guitar."

"But at heart, he's an unreliable, frivolous man. A really good man will not be so flamboyant and so good at shirking responsibility and exploiting loopholes. A really good man is like a silent rock, carrying everything silently! ”

Wang Ping'an: "You are prejudiced, and I will never shirk the responsibility I should bear." ”

Angli: "I know, you don't need to stress about it. ”

Su Jianying looked at Angli, and her expression seemed to be saying "another little girl who has been deceived".

Angli also turned to her and continued: "I have studied psychology, and after thirty-three weeks of living together, I think I already know Lieutenant Wang Ping'an very well. I don't think he's going to shirk responsibility, he's just relying too much on his own cleverness and being too capable of getting things done. But when it matters most, he will prove himself to be a trustworthy Space Force fighter.

"I've seen it, and he's got the silver star for it.

"He's just not very fit to be a soldier, not a cog in a well-organized machine. As his boss, your duty is to put him in the right place and use his good piece of steel on the blade, not to try to smooth out his edges and corners and make him a suitable gear. ”

Wang Ping'an interjected: "Yes, yes, it's best to assign me to an independent unit, this unit doesn't have to stick to the rules, only pursues efficiency, and has independent decision-making power." I have come up with the name of the unit, it is called Round Bell, and the logo is ......"

Angli and the instructor glared at Wang Ping'an together and told him to shut up.

Su Jianying was silent, looked at Angli carefully, and after a few seconds she said, "I kind of know why you were assigned to him by the supercomputer." However, your opinion is similar to that of the instructor, but the problem is that the Space Force is a sophisticated machine, and sooner or later something will happen to a non-compliant gear like him.

"According to you, he should go to those mercenary companies and do the dirty work for big private companies like Maga. I think he'll be handy in this area! ”

As soon as Wang Ping'an wanted to speak, the instructor waved his hand: "Okay, Lao Su, don't talk angry, you can deal with it as you want, the comrades in the psychology department over there are still waiting." ”

Su Jianying made a stinky face, threw down the sentence "remember to write a report" and left with the team.

All astronauts undergo psychological testing at the end of their long voyages. This is also one of the rules piled up by the many bloody lessons of the Space Force.

Wang Ping'an glanced at the white uniform of the psychology department and took a long breath.

Angli: "Don't worry, I don't think you'll have a big problem this time." ”
