"Cough cough!"
The two people who were staring at each other subconsciously jumped up and almost overturned the chessboard on the table in panic.
Xu Chengzhi reacted the fastest: "Uncle Mu..."
You called uncle?
Wang Chen raised his eyebrows, wanting to ask the other party if he remembered that he had a father.
His father was anxious and worried about his disappearance day and night, and promoted the rescue plan at all costs.
It turns out that this kid is enjoying himself here and doesn't want to leave!
He is truly a filial son.
And the beautiful girl Mu Zhenzhen also called out shyly, "Dad."
"Zhenzhen, come out with me first."
Mu Haitao said expressionlessly: "This gentleman has something to say to Xu Chengzhi."
Mu Zhenzhen glanced at Wang Chen with a worried look in her eyes. She pursed her lips, then reluctantly opened the iron door of the cell and walked out.
Although the door was closed, it was not locked at all!
After Mu Haitao took his daughter away, Wang Chen walked into the cell and sat down opposite Xu Chengzhi.
Xu Chengzhi was a little frightened, but he was able to remain calm: "Hello, who are you?"
Wang Chen did not answer, but took out a letter and handed it to the other party.
This letter was written by Xu Shaocheng, and Wang Chen specifically asked this imperial major general to write it.
Xu Chengzhi took the letter doubtfully, then opened it and read it carefully.
His face gradually turned red, and he was visibly ashamed. In the end, he simply covered his face.
You can still save it.
Wang Chen commented silently in his heart.
After a long time, Xu Chengzhi calmed down, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then respectfully saluted Wang Chen: "Sir, I am Xu Chengzhi of the First Task Force of the Second Fast Anti-Fleet, and I will follow your instructions!"
In the letter, Xu Shaocheng explained Wang Chen's identity and required him to obey any orders from Wang Chen.
"very good."
Wang Chen said: "In another twenty-seven days, a landing ship will come down to pick us up. You and your comrades should prepare to return."
Xu Chengzhi obviously hesitated for a moment, then straightened his chest: "Yes!"
But there was not much joy on his face.
Wang Chen said meaningfully: "Just stay here for the time being and don't go anywhere. I will come to pick you up when the time comes. I hope you will still be here by then."
This kid obviously had something in mind, but Wang Chen was too lazy to care.
If Wang Chen was not interested in the special situation on Tempus, Xu Shaocheng would not be able to invite him to come to this remote planet to rescue people even if he paid ten times the price.
The corners of Xu Chengzhi's mouth twitched, and he whispered, "I understand."
"As long as you know."
Wang Chen stood up and said, "Don't forget, you are an imperial soldier."
Xu Chengzhi was stunned.
Wang Chen didn't say anything more. He left the cell and reunited with Mu Haitao: "Take me to see the others."
Xu Chengzhi was held in solitary confinement, which strictly speaking should be considered house arrest. Apart from not being able to escape, the benefits he enjoyed were better than those of ordinary people in this base.
His teammates were all arranged in another large cell. The conditions were definitely much worse, but there was no problem with basic living security.
This shows how clever Mu Haitao is.
This imperial major obviously had an ulterior motive, but he did not go to extremes, leaving room for maneuver for himself and the B00785 backup base.
The other party didn't want to talk, and Wang Chen didn't ask. After seeing the status of these task force members, he said directly to Mu Haitao: "There will be a landing ship coming down in 27 days, which can transport up to 30 people back. In addition to Xu Chengzhi's group, I also promised to let the four people who brought me here leave Tempus Star."
"As for the remaining places, it's up to you to decide."
Mu Haitao suddenly became extremely conflicted.
There are thirty places for people, and Wang Chen, Xu Chengzhi and seven others, plus the four he agreed to, take up a total of twelve places.
There are eighteen left.
Mu Haitao knew very well how precious these eighteen places were!
The special situation on Tempus meant that it was impossible for the Empire to carry out a large-scale landing rescue operation.
Even though we know there are still a large number of survivors on this planet.
The spaceship that picked up Wang Chen was probably the only one at the moment, and it was unknown when the next one would arrive.
Moreover, even if they arrive, it may not be the turn of the people in the B00785 reserve base.
But how many people here are looking forward to leaving!
Mu Haitao knew that once this matter was exposed, it would inevitably cause a huge storm within the base.
It is entirely possible to overthrow him as the leader.
These 18 places are both precious and extremely hot.
To be honest, if possible, Mu Haitao really hoped that Wang Chen had not come, so that everything would continue according to the established plan and no unexpected situations would arise.
But he couldn't deal with Wang Chen at all.
"Thank you."
Mu Haitao uttered these two words with difficulty, feeling extremely bitter in his mouth.
“It’s not for free.”
Wang Chen said calmly: "Do you have any useful means of transportation here? Lend me one, I still have a mission to perform."
Having said that, he didn't hold out much hope.
Due to the influence of special energy radiation, technological equipment on the planet Tampas will quickly malfunction. Even if tools such as hovercraft are preserved intact, they are now unusable.
However, Mu Haitao really has the goods.
He gave Wang Chen an antique motorcycle!
This motorcycle was not manufactured recently, and the B00785 reserve base does not have any available manufacturing equipment. It is a DIY work of a base engineer before the war. It is a truly "ancient" means of transportation powered by a fuel engine.
Because it uses completely antique craftsmanship, it can still be used normally on the current planet Tampas.
Even the fuel is readily available.
However, after this antique motorcycle was moved to the backup base, it has never been restarted. After all, the crowded environment inside the base does not allow it to have any room to use.
It is merely the spiritual sustenance of this base engineer.
Now that Mu Haitao has come forward in person, although the other party is reluctant, they still give it up, including all the accessories and fuel.
“Please treat it well.”
The bearded engineer wiped the motorcycle one last time and said to Wang Chen, "If there is any problem, bring it back to me and I can fix it."
He looked like he was being NTR'd.
"Do not worry."
Wang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'll return it to you after I'm done with it."
After thinking for a while, he took out a piece of dark crystal and handed it to the other party: "This is considered as the rental fee."
Mu Haitao and the bearded engineer were both shocked.
Both of them are connoisseurs and know what this purple crystal is and how valuable it is!
The bearded engineer instinctively wanted to refuse, but Wang Chen waved his hand and instantly put the motorcycle along with the fuel accessories into the Xinghai Ring.
The bearded engineer immediately shut his mouth.
