The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 537 Implicated
The days spent eating, drinking, and having fun are actually quite enjoyable.

Although Jiang Hui has been studying diligently since arriving in interstellar space due to a brain mutation, she is still a lazy, easygoing human from Earth at heart. Now that she is confined here, she is not in a hurry to study these days and is focusing on resting and recuperating.

If lying down felt truly sinful, she would study relentlessly in her mental space at night, leaving no trace to be detected outside. She maintained a largely normal routine, so her mindset remained relatively stable, and she fared well during her days in the special room at the military law department.

During nearly a week of self-isolation, Jiang Hui attended five interrogations, one per day, which is quite a high frequency to be honest.

However, perhaps because the atmosphere at each scene was relatively pleasant, it was more like a discussion or conversation than an evidence collection and interrogation session.

The people who come each time are different; some are men and some are women, dressed like the lawyer from that day, while others are in military uniforms with stern expressions. However, the attitudes of these people are all acceptable; there is no coercion or intimidation. When Jiang Hui is occasionally scrutinized, she feels that it is all quite alright.

These people are very professional; they ask different questions each time, and from unexpected angles. If they encounter a more down-to-earth question, they might even bring Jiang Hui along to discuss the situation.

Jiang Hui didn't know from what perspective these elders were observing her. It was unlikely they were actually discussing the matter with her; they had probably been observing her closely, trying to determine her role in the case, whether she was lying, or whether she was secretly manipulating things.

But if you didn't do it, you didn't do it, and as long as you have a clear conscience, that's enough. Jiang Hui doesn't care much about this; as long as it doesn't significantly disrupt her normal life, she's quite cooperative with these kinds of routine procedures.

Time passed quickly, and there was still not much news about the progress of the case. Jiang Hui was not subjected to further investigation, and several days passed at this lukewarm pace. Jiang Hui was happy with the military's inaction.

The only thing that made her feel uncertain was her inability to contact the outside world.

Jiang Hui and the original owner of this body no longer have parents or family in this world, but they do have teachers and friends who are like family to them. These people are aware of her schedule and were still in contact with her until the day before the exam.

However, the original exam time has long passed, and someone will definitely contact her to inquire about the situation, without a doubt. But Jiang Hui has already handed in her personal terminal, and currently has no way to contact the outside world. If none of them can reach her, wouldn't that drive them crazy with worry?
But things had come to this, and Jiang Hui could only wait for news day by day, wondering when the military law department would release them to continue the remaining exam.

However, she didn't expect that before she could get any further news from the military law department, she would receive news from someone else.

The person she saved that day, Sanger Taylor, has woken up. He's been awake for about a day or two, and yesterday he wanted to see Jiang Hui, but because he was in poor spirits, he fainted again after only a short time, so he could only postpone his visit until today.

Aside from the military law department staff, Jiang Hui hadn't seen anyone else these past few days, so she was somewhat surprised to learn that the military law department staff wanted her to go see Taylor.

When asked about the person who notified them, the person casually told her that someone from above had requested that the two of them meet.

Considering Taylor's unusual behavior compared to that of ordinary children, Jiang Hui wondered if his family had intervened. After all, the child had been involved in such an accident and nearly lost his life; anyone would be angry in that situation.

Putting aside Jiang Hui's heroic deeds, regarding the oversights in this exam, the person behind the scenes who orchestrated the trouble is undoubtedly the primary culprit. However, upon closer examination, the military, as the supervisor and organizer, also bears considerable responsibility; this distinction must be made. Jiang Hui nodded and followed the military personnel who had come to inform him towards the medical ward.

Actually, Jiang Hui was still a bit wary when someone suddenly came to notify her. Worried that something was amiss, she specifically checked with the military law department's liaison office to confirm before feeling relieved. This left the soldiers responsible for escorting her somewhat bewildered; they even showed her their duty roster and the order notification, which confirmed that she was to meet with Sanger Taylor around a certain time today.

Jiang Hui wasn't embarrassed at all. It really wasn't her fault; after all, her mecha had been tampered with even when she handed it over to the exam organizers, and with so much military force watching during the exam, someone could still brazenly sabotage it. It was truly lamentable how rampant some powerful people were. They never really considered their own capabilities; they just did whatever they wanted. Her caution was understandable.

The Military Law Office was an organization affiliated with the military headquarters, and Jiang Hui suspected that it was actually located near the military base. She could faintly hear sounds resembling soldiers doing morning exercises as she walked.

This place should still be on the planet Atlantis, with a strong ocean theme and water ripple decorations everywhere.

They walked along the main corridor, where many people in military uniforms hurried by. These people kept their eyes straight ahead, each heading to their own mission point, showing no interest in what the others were doing.

Jiang Hui felt like she had walked for quite a while, as if she had rushed from one side to the other, and finally arrived at a relatively quiet area. The color scheme of this area was rather light, mostly bluish-white, and she could even see therapists wearing light-colored healer robes, which was probably the treatment area of ​​the military law department.

The space here is quite large. They went through identity verification at what seemed to be a reception area, and then had their instructions and documents checked before being allowed in. The checkpoint was fairly tight.

They arrived at a private ward, and the lead sergeant, who had been very quiet the whole way, gestured for her to go in by herself, saying that they would come to pick her up when it was time.

Jiang Hui nodded, thanked him softly, and then pushed open the door to the ward.

It seemed it wasn't her imagination; the room was indeed nice. She noticed that the surrounding area was larger and contained many unfamiliar instruments, with lights flickering within them, suggesting they were still in operation.

Ignoring the eye-catching instruments, Jiang Hui quickly located the person she was to meet today, and... the person next to him.

Jiang Hui was somewhat surprised. Why was the other person here today?
She strode over and saluted the person beside the bed: "Colonel Zong."

The other person nodded slightly, said nothing more, and glanced at a chair on the opposite side.

Jiang Hui understood and sat down. Then she met the gaze of the person on the bed, who was indeed awake.
