I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

Chapter 756 Indescribable?!
Professor Wang was startled. What was Old Zhang trying to do? Was he trying to make him turn against him?

He didn't want Old Zhang to make a big mistake, so he immediately dismissed the idea and said firmly that he was very satisfied with his current position and had no particular thoughts.

He also said that the base was now complete, and told him to give up his unrealistic ideas.

He cited several more examples from before, and Mr. Zhang's mood grew increasingly heavy.

Professor Wang was still talking there.

His intention was to let Old Zhang know that his behavior was wrong, and preferably to make Old Zhang leave in anger.

He didn't want to continue talking to the old man; if they did, something might go wrong.

Even if he was unwilling, it would be a different story once it got out.

As expected, Old Zhang got angry, slammed his chopsticks on the table with a bang, and stormed off.

Old Li shook his head helplessly and continued eating, as if everything was irrelevant to him.

Seeing how relaxed Professor Li was, Professor Wang felt particularly heavy-hearted.

How can this old man still eat so heartily? Doesn't he realize the seriousness of the problem?

If Old Zhang continues to cause trouble like this, it will have a very big impact on Earth 2.

What if he goes back and makes things difficult for Su Chen and the others, and tries to send someone to Earth 2?

Seeing that Mr. Li had almost finished eating, Professor Wang finally voiced his concerns.

Old Li slowly put down his chopsticks and smiled calmly.

The surrounding area was noisy, and it was hard to hear what he was saying.

Professor Wang leaned towards him, trying to get as close as possible.

"There's nothing to worry about. People always have a lot of worries when they get old. You don't need to take it too seriously."

Professor Wang sighed helplessly.

That's true, but even if a younger person were to take office, they probably wouldn't be very magnanimous.

He saw this very clearly.

The two exchanged a few words briefly before parting ways, and Professor Wang then...

Go find Su Chen and tell him everything that happened today.

After accompanying Elder Zhang on his inspection tour each day, Professor Wang planned to report to Su Chen.

He was worried that Su Chen might have some suspicions about him.

In fact, Su Chen trusted him very much, but he couldn't get past his own conscience.

For Mr. Zhang, Professor Wang's behavior was tantamount to supervising him.

So on the second day, he refused to let Professor Wang accompany him.

He said he wanted to wander around by himself and sent everyone else away.

Professor Wang was more than happy to see this happen, and after reporting to Su Chen, he went to work.

Mr. Zhang thought he might be able to observe different things on his own, but when he actually went alone, he found that there were many difficulties.

There are many things he simply doesn't know how to use. For example, he can't drive at all and can only walk.

He got tired after walking for a short while.

Having finally arrived at a place, I wanted to go inside and take a look, but the guards wouldn't let me in.

He needs to show his pass.

Old Zhang didn't have any pass, so he could only state his identity.

The guards still wouldn't let him in; they couldn't just let someone in by saying who they were.

The guard first called to inquire about Mr. Zhang's identity, and only after confirming his identity would he be allowed to enter.

However, Su Chen and the others were busy with work and did not answer the phone immediately.

The person who answered the phone was from the liaison office.

The liaison office staff didn't dare to make a decision either, and could only tell them not to let the person in for the time being.

An hour later, Wang Jianfeng learned of the incident and finally allowed the guards to let the person in.

But by this time, Old Zhang was so angry that he had no mood to inspect the place and stormed back to his room.

Looking at the exquisite room they had prepared for him, Old Zhang couldn't stand it.

Around noon, he called Old Li over, saying that he would return to Earth that evening.

He pretended to be angry and complained about Su Chen and the others, saying that he would readjust the personnel of Earth 2 after returning to Earth.

He said this hoping that Old Li would say a few kind words to stop him, but Old Li didn't seem to understand his meaning.

"I'll have someone prepare to go back immediately."

Seeing the closed door, Old Zhang flew into a rage, pointing at the door and cursing loudly.

"You old geezer, keep pretending. Don't you understand what I mean?"

After giving him a good scolding, the resentment in his heart dissipated somewhat.

He sat on the sofa with a cold expression, pondering the question about Earth 2.

Su Chen and the others on Earth 2 have completely taken control of the situation and must take necessary measures.

Otherwise, things will get really bad later.

Thinking about this, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed into his mind.

This time when I go back, I can bring Su Chen back with me. Su Chen is the backbone of Earth 2. Without Su Chen, this group is leaderless, and we will have a chance to regain control of Earth 2.

This time, he will not be merciful, nor will he hesitate again.

Even if another person like the last one appears, Earth 2 cannot be allowed to fall back into the hands of Su Chen and his group.

As he pondered, his plan began to take shape.

If we're going to send Su Chen back, why not send more people back?
If Wang Jianfeng and the others can all go back with me, then all the top leaders of Earth 2 will disappear.

At that time, it was possible to place one's own people there, or even keep Su Chen and the others on Earth.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt there was a chance for this.

Immediately afterward, he frowned, wondering how he could get Su Chen and the others back.

They must find a very good reason, even one that the other cannot refuse.

Only in this way can you accomplish your plan.

"I've got it!" Old Zhang sat up excitedly, finally coming up with a good reason.

He then contacted Mr. Li and asked him to quickly call Wang Jianfeng and the others over, as he had something very urgent to say.

Old Li didn't know what he was going to do either.

But based on his understanding of Old Zhang over the years, he was sure it wasn't anything good.

After Su Chen and the others were summoned to his room, they saw the serious look on Zhang's face, as if something had really happened.

Everyone sat up straight, staring intently at Old Zhang.

Old Zhang coughed and said with great sorrow, "I have some very unfortunate news to tell you all. One of our veteran comrades has passed away. This veteran comrade was no ordinary person. We must all go back together to bid him farewell."

The group exchanged glances, initially thinking it was something extremely important, but it turned out to be this matter.

This isn't a big deal, but it's not a small one either. To put it simply, it's the death of one person.

On a larger scale, however, the situation is different.

Before anyone could understand what Elder Zhang meant, he continued, "This is of great importance. Su Chen, explain the situation regarding Earth 2, and then we'll all go back."

The moment the word "everyone" was mentioned, everyone's expression changed drastically, and they immediately realized what Old Zhang was planning to do.

Even if someone dies, there's no need for all the high-ranking officials of Earth 2 to go to Earth.

This was clearly done on purpose.

Su Chen was surprised that Elder Zhang would do this, and remained silent in thought.

Wang Jianfeng couldn't help but cough and said with great difficulty, "I am very saddened by this matter, but there are many things to do on Earth 2, and we can't go back to Earth."

Old Zhang immediately seized on the flaw in his statement and asked calmly, "Then who do you think should go back?"

This question left Wang Jianfeng speechless for a long time.

It seems that sending anyone back would fall into Old Zhang's trap.

But it seems a bit unreasonable to not let people go back.

The saying goes, "Respect for the dead is paramount." No matter how important your situation is, you should always consider the deceased first.

He didn't have a very good reason to refuse.

Even Tang Yumo, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but suddenly laugh.

This laugh drew everyone's attention, and Old Zhang glared at him with displeasure.

Why is this girl laughing at something so sad?
Tang Yumo said, "I'm not going. I don't know that person, so you don't need to consider me."

After saying that, he got up to leave.

Old Zhang slammed his hand on the table, stopping him: "You stop right there! The meeting isn't over yet. Did you say you could leave?"

"You won't go just because you don't know them? Does that mean you have to know everyone in this world?"

After saying that, he questioned Su Chen, "Su Chen, what do you think?"

Su Chen glanced at Tang Yumo, gesturing for him to sit down.

Then, he spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Do you want us all to go back?"

Old Zhang nodded heavily, his attitude very firm.

"It's not that I want you all to go back, but that you all must go back. As for the management of Earth 2, I will help you rearrange it, so you can rest assured about that."

Tang Yumo and the others sneered inwardly, "It's because of your arrangements that we're still not at ease."

Su Chen realized he had no choice but to go back, but he couldn't let the management of Earth 2 fall into Zhang Lao's hands.

He came up with a compromise and said with a smile, "I think we should let Elder Li manage Earth 2 for the time being."

Old Zhang immediately objected, knowing that Old Li had a close relationship with Su Chen and others.

Handing it over to Elder Li is tantamount to handing it over to Su Chen.

"That won't do. Old Li has just been discharged from the hospital and hasn't fully recovered yet. Can you bear to let him work so hard? What if something happens to him? Who can take the responsibility?"

Su Chen shook his head helplessly. It seemed that Elder Zhang was determined to take charge of Earth 2 himself.

Suddenly, Old Zhang said, "I will also go back with you, you can rest assured about that. However, I need to arrange some people to manage Earth 2 for you. You can come back after we have finished dealing with things."

He said nice things, but nobody believed him.

Just as everyone was pondering how to object, Old Zhang made his decision directly.

"Alright, that's settled then."

"Tomorrow morning, everyone will come back with me."

He didn't give them a chance to speak and simply sent them all away.

Su Chen and his group went to his office and held a short meeting.

Now that Old Zhang has made the decision, they have no chance to object anymore.

Tang Yumo suggested that they could hide tomorrow, and Old Zhang would definitely not be able to find them.

Su Chen shook his head with a wry smile; this method simply wouldn't work.

If they hide, Elder Zhang can directly determine that they are dead or that they have left Earth 2, and will directly strip them of their positions.

Wang Jianfeng frowned. "Is there no other way? Old Zhang is really ruthless to use this method against us. Let's talk to Old Li about it."

Su Chen waved his hand, indicating that he did not want Old Li to get involved in this matter.

Originally, Old Li wanted to have a chat with them, but Su Chen told him to go back and rest.

It wasn't that he didn't trust him, but rather that he didn't want Old Li to get involved in these disputes.

After a moment of silence, Su Chen suddenly smiled.

"If we all go back, will others be able to take control of Earth 2?"

He asked a question, and everyone fell into deep thought.

They've been operating on Earth 2 for so long that most people believe in them.

If someone else were in charge, probably no one would be convinced, let alone have the ability to manage it.

After a brief silence, Tang Yumo seemed to understand Su Chen's meaning.

"You mean we should all go back and completely hand over Earth 2 to Old Zhang?"

"But what if he really manages to find someone to manage Earth 2? What if he can't manage it well and then refuses to hand it over to us? I'm worried he'll take us under his control and prevent us from coming back."

Everyone nodded in agreement; this concern was not unfounded.

Judging from Mr. Zhang's various actions, this is what he wanted to achieve.

Su Chen was no longer so worried and opened up to everyone, saying, "We have been operating on Earth 2 for so long and have put in countless efforts. I believe that the other people on Earth 2 are just like us. They will never allow anyone to come here and cause trouble, so we can definitely go back."

"Let Old Zhang see what kind of people are on Base 2. When everyone opposes outsiders, I believe he will no longer have any expectations, and Earth 2 will no longer have these messy things."

Everyone fell into deep thought. The words were true, but it was too risky. If things didn't go as they expected, they would lose Earth 2.

At this moment, Su Chen said again, "Earth 2 is just a planet. In the future, we may discover Earth 3 and Earth 4."

"The facilities on Earth 2 are basically complete now. I was originally thinking of exploring other planets so that if we really can't come back, we can go to other planets."

"In such a vast universe, I believe there are planets even better than Earth 2."

Everyone nodded silently. Since Su Chen had made his decision, they could only silently follow and support him from behind.

Old Zhang couldn't sleep all night; his eyes were red. Worried about unforeseen circumstances, he arrived early at the starship, waiting for Su Chen and his group.

The first person to arrive was Old Li.

Old Li stood with him in the cold wind, waiting.

Soon after, Su Chen and his group arrived.

When they appeared before Old Zhang, he was very surprised.

He hadn't expected that Su Chen and the others would all come. In his mind, Su Chen and the others might leave one or two people behind, but it seemed that he had been overthinking it.
