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

Su Chen is designing an artificial intelligence machine.

Before he could fully complete the research, an unexpected event interrupted his plans.

On that extremely cold planet, something very strange happened.

An iceberg suddenly collapsed, creating a bottomless ice pit at the site of the collapse.

Upon learning this news, Su Chen had no choice but to temporarily put aside his work and prepare to travel to the extremely cold planet to take a look.

Wang Jianfeng and a few others wanted to come along, but Su Chen refused.

He didn't need to bring too many people this time; he decided to just bring Tang Yumo.

As for Wang Jianfeng and Yuan Jingna, they should just stay on Earth 2 and do their jobs well.

Yuan Jingna was fine, but Wang Jianfeng was very dissatisfied, kicking the table and grumbling to express his displeasure.

Su Chen pretended not to hear anything, thinking to himself: Last time you opposed me, this time I'll target you too.

Wang Jianfeng knew exactly what Su Chen meant, which was why he was so angry, feeling that Su Chen was settling a personal score.

But when he opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything, because Su Chen's reason was very appropriate.

"I'm not busy lately, so please let me go take a look." Wang Jianfeng's tone softened, with a hint of pleading.

Yuan Jingna and Tang Yumo also spoke up for him, saying that since Wang Jianfeng wanted to go, he should go, and there was no need to stop him.

Earth 2 is not in any trouble right now, and Yuan Jingna is staying here to keep watch.

Su Chen shook his head and said very calmly, "Wang Jianfeng is the administrator of Earth 2. What would he be doing on an extreme cold planet?"

“He’s not an expert, so what use can he be? I think he should just stay here.”

After saying that, he didn't give anyone a chance to object and said, "If you think Wang Jianfeng has to go, then you go. I'll stay here and wait for your good news."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna immediately fell silent.

Wang Jianfeng glanced at Su Chen, shook his head helplessly, and slammed the door shut as he left.

If he doesn't want me to go, then I won't go; he doesn't care anyway.

Su Chen and Tang Yumo boarded an interstellar warship and headed to an extremely cold planet.

On the interstellar warship, Tang Yumo brought Su Chen a cup of coffee and asked him with a smile why he didn't let Wang Jianfeng go to the extreme cold planet, was it because of what Wang Jianfeng did to him last time?

Su Chen nodded and said bluntly, "As a leader, he actually used his position to settle personal scores and opposed me on that matter. I am very dissatisfied with his behavior."

Tang Yumo chuckled, curiously resting her chin on her hand and staring at Su Chen: "Aren't you settling a personal score right now too?"

Su Chen nodded in admission, then added in his own defense, "I was settling a personal score, but I was doing it for his own good, to teach him a lesson."

"To be precise, I am still working, but you feel that I am settling a personal score."

At this point, Su Chen said to himself, "It doesn't matter whether he goes or not."

"It's just that there have been a lot of things going on with Earth 2 lately, so it would actually be better for him to stay."

After finishing his sentence, Su Chen stopped talking about the topic and instead asked Tang Yumo what she had been busy with lately.

Tang Yumo told Su Chen about her research, and they also discussed a few questions that he didn't quite understand.

Su Chen gave accurate answers to all of them.

On this day, the two finally arrived at the extremely cold planet.

They were stunned when they stepped off the plane.

Because among those who greeted them, besides Professor Wang, there was another person who was quite unexpected.

This person is Wang Jianfeng.

Su Chen's face instantly darkened.

Although there were some minor disagreements between the two, they maintained a very stable relationship throughout.

Moreover, despite their disagreements, the two of them will still follow the procedures to get to work.

But now, Wang Jianfeng has violated the base's rules.

He can disagree with Su Chen, and he can also do things that Su Chen doesn't like.

However, he should not have left the base without permission.

In particular, they shouldn't have come without Su Chen's permission, and instead went to places where Su Chen was supposed to be.

Tang Yumo's face was even uglier than Su Chen's, because she found Wang Jianfeng's actions intolerable and felt they were a betrayal.

He strode up to Wang Jianfeng and stared at him with an angry look.

"Why are you here?"

Wang Jianfeng shrugged smugly and said with a grin, "Why can't I come here?"

"Shortly after you left, I received instructions from above to come to the extreme cold planet, so here I am."

Wang Jianfeng was unaware of the seriousness of the problem, and he did not discuss it with Yuan Jingna.

After receiving the orders, he arrived directly aboard a starship.

In order to arrive before Su Chen and give them a surprise, he deliberately made the captain of the interstellar warship speed up.

That's why we're in this situation today.

Tang Yumo saw that he seemed to have felt nothing, and with a hint of disappointment, she snorted and said nothing more.

Professor Wang didn't know what had happened, but judging from Tang Yumo's questioning, it seemed that Su Chen didn't know Wang Jianfeng was here, which gave him a bad feeling.

When Su Chen came in front of him, that bad premonition became even stronger.

Su Chen smiled at Professor Wang, didn't even glance at Wang Jianfeng, and walked straight ahead, asking as she went, "Has the site been cordoned off?"

What discoveries have been made so far?

Professor Wang quickly followed up, saying, "It's already sealed off. Because the situation is urgent, and we don't know what risks are inside, we haven't been able to send anyone to probe it."

Su Chen nodded and immediately gave the order.

"Have someone guard that place; no one is allowed to enter without my order."

"Prepare some experts to assist me in this operation."

After saying that, he looked at Tang Yumo and said, "After I take people down to explore, I will leave the things up here to you and Professor Wang."

Tang Yumo and Professor Wang nodded, and the group walked quickly forward, with Wang Jianfeng following behind, feeling a little uneasy.

He knew Su Chen would be angry, but Su Chen didn't even glance at him, which still made him feel very upset.

Especially when the task was first assigned, Su Chen didn't say anything to him.

He couldn't help but cough, as if to remind him.

However, Su Chen seemed not to see it at all, and went straight to the office that had been prepared for him, and then said that a meeting was to be held.

Tang Yumo and Professor Wang had just sat down when Wang Jianfeng was about to sit down as well.

Just then, Su Chen suddenly looked at him and said, "You don't need to stay here. Go do what you need to do." After saying that, he lowered his head and started drinking his tea.

Wang Jianfeng frowned and lowered his head to admit his mistake: "Su Chen, don't be angry. I know it was wrong of me to come here without your permission, but I really wanted to come with you."

Su Chen seemed not to hear him, gently tapped the table, and suddenly asked Professor Wang, "Professor Wang, do you have any soldiers here?"

Professor Wang was taken aback, not understanding what Su Chen meant.
Su Chen said calmly, "If there are soldiers, call them in and kick out any disobedient ones so as not to disrupt our meeting."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianfeng's expression changed drastically.

He had worked with Su Chen for so long, and Su Chen had never spoken in this way before.

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but Su Chen slammed his hand on the table and said seriously, "Get out."

"You're here because it's on orders from above, so go do what they tell you to do and don't get involved in our affairs."

After he finished speaking, he fell silent.

Wang Jianfeng steeled himself and walked out, pacing back and forth in the corridor, feeling a sense of emptiness in his heart, as if he had lost something.

He regretted it, but he also felt that he hadn't done anything wrong. All he did was not follow Su Chen's instructions.

I came here because I followed orders from above.
Is it necessary to get so angry?

He was alone in the corridor, deep in thought, while Su Chen was having a meeting with Professor Wang and Tang Yumo.

Because Su Chen had just lost his temper, Professor Wang and Tang Yumo were feeling rather uneasy.

They could sense that Su Chen was truly furious. It was the first time they had ever seen Su Chen so angry, which made them too afraid to even breathe.

Su Chen remained as amiable as ever, saying what needed to be said and doing what needed to be done, and assigning them detailed tasks.

After finishing his story, Su Chen rubbed his temples wearily.

"Alright, you can all go about your business."

Tang Yumo got up and prepared to leave. When he was almost at the door, he couldn't help but turn back and glance at Su Chen.

“Su Chen, there’s really no need to get so angry. You know Wang Jianfeng’s personality; he’s just…”

Before he could finish speaking, Su Chen glared at him, effectively silencing Tang Yumo.

Professor Wang gave Tang Yumo a wink, signaling him to stop talking.

The two walked out of the corridor and saw Wang Jianfeng.

Wang Jianfeng wanted to go in and talk to Su Chen again, but Professor Wang pulled him out.

Professor Wang sighed softly and said in a low voice, "Let's go outside and talk."

Wang Jianfeng followed the two men outside, feeling somewhat aggrieved: "I had a little argument with him recently, and I was just trying to annoy him on purpose, so I came here secretly. Who would have thought he would get so angry?"

Tang Yumo glared at him fiercely and said irritably, "You're really something. Don't you know what this means?"

"Whether Su Chen and you argue or have conflicts, that's your private matter. You can make things difficult for each other in the base and hinder each other's things, but that's not important."

“But Su Chen has important things to do right now. He left you at the base so you could take care of the house, but you obeyed orders and ran here. Do you know that doing this will greatly disappoint Su Chen?”

Wang Jianfeng pursed his lips and remained silent.

Professor Ma shook his head and lowered his voice, saying, "These are minor issues."

"What's the most important thing? Do you know?"

Do you know why Su Chen was so angry?

Wang Jianfeng and Tang Yumo shook their heads at the same time, and then looked at Professor Wang at the same time.

Professor Wang said with a serious expression, "Without Su Chen's knowledge, his most important partner secretly followed someone else's orders and came here."

“Think about this carefully, what does this represent? It represents a lack of trust.”

"Simply put, Su Chen can no longer trust Wang Jianfeng."

“What Wang Jianfeng did was not simply a matter of whether it was excessive or not; it was that he forgot his identity and what his job was.”

"He did such a thing out of a moment of anger. In the future, he will also do things that Su Chen would never expect, out of a moment of anger."

"That's just Su Chen, he's just taking his anger out on you."

"If it were one of the people above, you would definitely be removed from your position and would never be given any important position again, because you are no longer trustworthy in their eyes."

Wang Jianfeng and Tang Yumo were both dumbfounded.

Wang Jianfeng, in particular, had not expected things to be so serious.

After a long while, Wang Jianfeng asked, "Then what should I do? Should I go back now?"

Tang Yumo rolled her eyes: "Since we're already here, we can just go back and pretend nothing happened."

Professor Wang pondered for a moment and said, "Let's stay here for now."

After saying that, he suddenly asked Wang Jianfeng curiously, "What did the higher-ups send you here for?"

Wang Jianfeng scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "The higher-ups sent me to ask you for some ancient creatures frozen in the ice of an extremely cold planet. It seems they want to study something."

Professor Wang shook his head helplessly, said nothing more, and hurried to do the task Su Chen had assigned him.

His main task now is to seal off the site of the incident.

Although a blockade had already been set up, Su Chen had him make the blockade even more stringent than before.

A comprehensive lockdown is needed, not only to prevent outsiders from entering, but also to prevent the creatures inside the ice pit from escaping.

The "organisms" here refer not only to unknown organisms, but also to bacteria and viruses, which are their primary targets for prevention.

Unknown organisms may not exist, but bacteria and viruses definitely do.

Once it spreads across an extremely cold planet, it will inevitably affect many people.

Although nothing has happened yet, Su Chen's actions were not inappropriate.

Professor Wang had already taken some basic precautions in this area, so now all that's needed is to reinforce it.

As for Tang Yumo, she also has her own tasks.

His main task now is to select a group of well-trained soldiers to prepare for defense around the ice pit.

At the same time, a group of people should be selected to accompany Su Chen and his group into the ice pit.

In addition, Tang Yumo was fully responsible for all issues related to rescue personnel and other personnel matters.

Wang Jianfeng couldn't fall asleep after returning to his room alone; Professor Wang and Tang Yumo's words kept echoing in his mind.

He slapped himself in regret, wondering why he had acted so impulsively.
You should have discussed it with Yuan Jingna before coming.

If he had discussed it with her, Yuan Jingna probably wouldn't have let him come, and this wouldn't have happened.

Now that things have turned out this way, even if he wanted to apologize to Su Chen, he probably wouldn't be forgiven.

Thinking about Professor Wang's previous words, he felt a deep unease. (End of Chapter)
