"My injury was the coldest, I was so haggard that I couldn't take pity on me."
"Inviting wine to destroy the intestines, three cups of wine drunk, searching for incense and startling dreams cold."
"The phoenix with the hairpin has tears, I have no fate with the flowers."
"The lonely heart and the moon are like a hook — — and hard to reconcile."
"The book continues, saying that after I entered unit 682, I fought 300 rounds with that damn lizard. In the end, I rode on its back and fought a battle of wits and courage. However, 682 was a mythical beast. How could it stand such humiliation? It shook its body with all its might, trying to throw me to the ground. Just as I couldn't take it anymore, the faces of everyone here appeared in my mind. I thought that I couldn't embarrass everyone at Site14 site, so I jumped up, grabbed a cable, turned it into a whip, and continued to deal with that beast — — "
During lunch break, Zhang Jue was in the cafeteria of Site14 site. He talked about what happened before and after he met 682.
Of course, he couldn't tell the truth in full detail. However, due to his father's influence, his storytelling skills weren't bad.
Although the colleagues at Site14 site didn't believe him completely, it was good to treat it as an after-meal entertainment.
The reason why he told this story as a storytelling was naturally not because he was arrogant.
It was because when he returned to Site14 site that day, an investigation order from the Golden Foundation headquarters arrived as promised.
The investigation order came from the newly appointed O5 and O5-12.
It ordered Zhang Jue to return to Site19 to assist in the investigation of 682's breakthrough.
This matter was somehow leaked. Only then did the colleagues at Site14 site know that Zhang Jue disappeared during this period of time because he went to the headquarters to meet 682.
A general was not subject to military orders.
Zhang Jue already had a guilty conscience. This kind of investigation order was like a piece of waste paper to him. He wouldn't go to Site19 for the time being.
Who would spit out what they ate?
However, news of this matter quickly spread throughout the entire station. Zhang Jue was usually quite popular, so everyone worked together against a common enemy and drove the people from the headquarters away. Actually, this was also because O5-12 had already instructed them not to make things too difficult for Zhang Jue.
Although the crisis had been resolved, everyone still came to ask Zhang Jue what had happened.
Some were concerned, while others were curious.
That was why the scene above happened.
For the past few days, Zhang Jue would give a talk after lunch.
Although most people knew that Zhang Jue might not be telling the truth due to confidentiality reasons, they were still willing to listen to his rambling.
This also showed that after a few months of working together, the staff at site14 had indeed treated Zhang Jue as one of their own.
There was only one exception — the new deputy director of Site14 site, Dave Simons.
Yang Xue was left in the small town of Craminda, and the position of deputy director of the experiment was vacant.
During the period when Zhang Jue was away, the headquarters sent him over.
The director of the experiment, Elder Zhang, was already semi-retired, so this deputy director actually exercised the authority of the supervisor. All experiments at Site14 site had to be approved by him.
Because he was parachuted in from the headquarters and was a Westerner, his work did not go smoothly at first.
Fortunately, his work ability was strong, so he gradually gained everyone's recognition.
And Zhang Jue's return swept away the prestige he had built up.
As soon as he got off work, everyone surrounded Zhang Jue.
It was impossible to say that he wasn't jealous.
Simons was only 30 years old. For him to be able to hold this position, he naturally had his own strengths.
Although he was jealous, it was only jealousy. His mentality was not twisted.
He knew that the best way to surpass others was to improve himself.
