Chapter 61 Rebels
Jiang Huihua spent time reading through an entire social news section.

Despite the large amount of media coverage this matter received, very little information actually revealed the inside story of what happened that day. The reports were mostly derived from government announcements and photos or short videos taken by certain individuals during the chaos, and the information provided by various newspapers was not much more than what she knew.

Jiang Hui only read a small portion before becoming quite tired and realizing that these people didn't know much, and much of what they said was just dubious gossip. After reading the whole thing, she was only completely certain of this, and couldn't help but sigh that the most impressive thing about many journalists is probably not following the news, but rather fabricating all sorts of imaginary stories.

Even after watching to the end, she still couldn't figure out why the rebels had suddenly appeared on such a small planet.

Moreover, this year's media is terrible; the photos they took probably don't even capture the most direct view she saw on the spot that day—just scraps of information. They didn't even manage to photograph the hem of the uniforms of those supposedly valiant imperial soldiers; all they managed to get were images of a bunch of military aircraft parked inside and outside the building.

Jiang Hui felt a pang of regret. Those soldiers were so spirited, their tailored uniforms impeccable; looking at them was a paradise for anyone who appreciated good looks.

Although it was quite frightening at the time.

For some reason, Jiang Hui remembered the soldier who had helped her up that day. The situation was too urgent then, and she hadn't even seen the soldier's face clearly, but she remembered the insignia on his uniform quite well, though she didn't know what it was.

Then, Jiang Hui saw the insignia of the Third Army Corps in the news report and realized what it was—it was the same as the insignia on the other person's left chest. It turned out the other person was a sergeant from the Third Army Corps, and judging from the details of their uniform, they were at least officers, or at the very least, non-commissioned officers.

But she only glanced at it then, and her attention wasn't on it, so she probably can't give an accurate guess now.

Judging from the original owner's memories, the Empire maintained very strict information protection for its soldiers. Unless they volunteered, the media was not allowed to expose their appearance or report on them without authorization.

Of course, there are also some rising military stars in high positions and some military academy students who have been the subject of much attention and controversy since their time in the military. These people have been under the spotlight since entering the military.

However, Jiang Hui's knowledge base was still too shallow, and the original owner's memories were fragmented and limited, making her equally unfamiliar with this area. Based on their combined knowledge, they couldn't even name a few famous figures in the interstellar world. Therefore, Jiang Hui probably wouldn't have a chance to figure out the identity of the kind person who helped her yesterday in the short term.

With yesterday's matter finally resolved, Jiang Hui's curiosity was somewhat satisfied.

Closing the extended pages of the daily newspaper, Jiang Hui's attention returned to her own daily life. After all, these huge headlines were ultimately other people's business; she hadn't even figured out her own yet.

After all that, she felt hungry again.

Jiang Hui realized she had eaten a lot of fast food around four or five in the morning, far exceeding her usual appetite. Why was she hungry again now? She found it strange.

Anyway, I don't know if it was the fright she experienced yesterday that aggravated her old brain injury. Ever since she returned from Dongbo Group, her mental state has seemed somewhat unstable. Her mental energy is showing a contrasting state, active yet with an unusual sense of fatigue.

Jiang Hui took a mental stabilizer before going to bed after returning home last night, and felt slightly better after waking up from the mental space. However, she started feeling tired and hungry again around four or five o'clock, so she had to take a second dose of the mental stabilizer within eight hours, and then ate a lot of fast food.

Therefore, she was fine again before dawn the next day. All the negative states seemed to have vanished, as if they had come and gone suddenly, which was very strange. Fortunately, this abnormality lasted only a short time and ended before Jiang Hui could react. Otherwise, she wouldn't be leisurely sitting here looking at the personal terminal right now; she might have already made a communication call to the hospital's rehabilitation department for consultation.

Having lived two lives, Jiang Hui still cherishes this life she was given by chance. Moreover, besides living for herself, she also wants to live well, sharing the life of the original owner of this body.

Therefore, Jiang Hui decided to leave this matter as a question and observe it further. If a similar situation occurs again in the future, she will go to the hospital for a check-up.

Strange as it is, I still have to eat. Jiang thought about how he'd eaten fast food in the early hours of the morning, probably not very nutritious. Maybe this is just how life is for everyone in the interstellar world?

Eat if you're hungry, it's not like you're trying to lose weight or anything.

Jiang Hui put aside the trivial matters on her mind and turned to the kitchen to find something to eat.

-------------

Yesterday, I went to the Dongbo Group for an event, only to find that Imperial rebels had infiltrated the area, which gave Carlo quite a fright. Such things are not common in interstellar space, and even rarer in resident star systems.

When Carlo was summoned by the Third Army, he was completely bewildered and slightly uneasy, even though he had not done anything to be ashamed of.

Fortunately, they only called him out for questioning as usual. Afterwards, he was escorted back to his home in Shouhuan by several soldiers, and the matter was thus resolved without serious incident.

What happened afterward had nothing to do with Carlo, but could he really just pretend that nothing had happened?
Carlo rose to fame at a young age and was a rare talent in his early years. He received much attention and was highly regarded in the mecha world.

Although he ultimately chose not to join the military as a mecha pilot due to family reasons, he still remained connected to the military and thus came into contact with many people there and learned a great deal.

News reports from outside all indicate that the Third Army Corps is tracking down rebels, and the government's official announcement confirms this. However, most people are unaware of the specifics of this rebellion.
But Carlo knew.

When he returned last night, a close military friend who frequently commissioned him to make custom mechs called him directly via his personal communication device to inquire about the situation.

It's not hard to tell from their words that this rebel force is no ordinary one. After all, deploying elite troops like the Third Legion to search for them means they can't be just some lowly rebels.

He couldn't resist asking a couple more questions, but the other party couldn't answer them directly. Before ending the meeting, the other party asked him if he needed to leave planet 732 and stay in the capital system for a while.

However, Carlo declined the offer due to some personal reasons.
