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

The scene remained extremely silent; no one spoke.

At this moment, Chen Anrong spoke up, saying, "Su Chen means that as long as you speak up now, he will not make things difficult for you, he will make arrangements for you, and no one will touch you."

"Once we find out, or if we find out someday, the consequences won't be good."

He straightened his back and suddenly thought about his own fate, which didn't seem too bad.

He slowly rose, looked around at everyone present, and bowed slightly.

"I would like to apologize to everyone here first, I did something wrong before."

"Su Chen did not punish me too severely, and you should all be very clear about that."

“If you tell me now, your fate won’t be any worse than mine, since you know what I did.”

"But if you don't tell us now, the consequences will be different once we find out."

"Space jump bases are extremely important and have a very significant impact."

"You should think about it yourselves."

Chen Anrong's words were like a time bomb, suddenly exploding in the crowd.

Everyone looked around in alarm, deep in thought.

They weren't sure who was behind it, but because they were all managers of the space jump base, they communicated more frequently and knew more about each other.

In order to protect their own interests and for the sake of the entire base, everyone started discussing who was behind this.

Soon, amidst the arguing and discussion, two people emerged.

While most people were doubting these two people, sweat began to gradually seep from their foreheads.

Su Chen and Chen Anrong also turned their gazes to the two people. From their subtle movements, they could sense that there was indeed something wrong.

Is it really them?

Chen Anrong frowned slightly; this was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

Because the two people he initially suspected were not these two at all.

These two people were completely distraught at this moment; they were indeed the ones who betrayed Su Chen.

Their emotions were in turmoil, and they didn't know what to do.

They were fully aware of the consequences if this happened; even if nothing was wrong now, it would eventually be known.
When the truth came out, they were fully aware of what their fate would be.

Those who cooperate with them will absolutely not make the best effort to help them.

If Su Chen speaks up, the two of them will definitely be betrayed.

What will the outcome be then? (Previous)
After Su Chen said those words again, they were making a decision.

Whether to admit it now or insist on denying it now seems pointless, but insisting on denying it now doesn't seem to make any difference.

Because everyone seems to have realized it was them.

Stubbornly refusing to admit it will probably not end well.

The two men exchanged a glance and slowly stood up.

One of them said, "Su Chen, can we talk alone?"

Su Chen smiled and nodded. As long as we admit it, Su Chen would agree to talk to them alone, or even ask if they could be spared punishment, since no damage has been caused yet.

Everyone waited in the conference room, while Su Chen and two other people went into a separate room on one side of the conference room.

Once the two men entered the room, they immediately admitted their mistakes to Su Chen and even tried to kneel down, but Su Chen helped them up.

Su Chen said very sincerely, "There haven't been any home games yet, so you don't need to worry too much. I won't punish you."

The two men were so grateful they had tears in their eyes, and he told Su Chen everything that had happened.

They were working for their superiors; to be precise, it should be Old Chen.

Old Chen can be described as shrewd and calculating; he had begun planning many years ago.

Especially after making contact with Chen Anrong, he secretly arranged many pawns without Chen Anrong's knowledge.

These two are just one of them.

As for who the other people are, neither of them knows.

According to these two people, the people at both space jump bases have basically been replaced by Chen Lao's men.

If we want to eliminate them in a short period of time, the only way is to imprison them all.

Su Chen asked them to write a report, and then said to the two of them, "This is how I see things regarding your situation."

“Since you’ve made a mistake, it’s not right not to punish you.”

"I think you don't need to be managers of the space jump base anymore. I'm worried about keeping you here to continue working, and I'm afraid you wouldn't feel at ease either."

“If we let you leave like this, you will probably have difficulty finding a job in the future, and it will also have an impact on you.”

"How about this? I'll go to your two bases in a while and find an excuse to fire you."

"In that case, I believe that perhaps the higher-ups or other people will still recruit you, and it won't have too much of an impact on you."

The two were moved to tears.

At this point, Su Chen was still thinking of them; what else could they say?

I have nothing but gratitude.

Soon, the three people came out of the room.

Everyone in the conference room immediately stood up and stared intently at them.

Su Chen smiled slightly at everyone and said calmly, "It was all a misunderstanding. This matter is over. You can all go back now."

What seems like a simple statement actually implies to everyone that both of them have confessed everything.

Everyone nodded silently without asking any further questions and went back to their respective places.

Only Chen Anrong and Su Chen remained in the meeting room.

Chen Anrong couldn't help but ask Su Chen if the two of them had made any mistakes.

Su Chen didn't hide anything and said directly, "It really is them."

Chen Anrong didn't press the matter further, but instead curiously asked Su Chen why he hadn't said it in public.

Su Chen briefly explained the punishments for the two people.

Chen Anrong was deeply moved. She had made such a big mistake, yet the punishment was so lenient, and they even had to keep it a secret to take care of them.

He then asked Su Chen what his plans were next.
Su Chen smiled and said, "Let nature take its course. After a while, I will let others take over those two bases."

Chen Anrong nodded.

He wanted to say something more, but when the words came to his lips, he had nothing to say. In the end, he could only bid farewell to Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't try to stop him. He had finished dealing with the matter and it was time for him to leave. As for any help he might need later, he could contact him again.

Chen Anrong reluctantly turned back.

Everything in front of me was so familiar, yet strangely unfamiliar.

He couldn't understand why. They were managing the same base, but the people there had a different mindset than him.

Looking back on his time managing the base, he believes he was sincere and genuine with everyone and never treated anyone unfairly.

However, this group of people always seemed a bit listless. Although they worked diligently, they didn't seem to enjoy it or feel any warmth.

Now all of this is on display in the base.

Su Chen was currently thinking about who should be sent to take over the two bases that had been damaged, but he didn't have anyone around him at the moment.

He recalled the people he knew and wanted to select a few trustworthy individuals to manage the organization.

But when he thought about it, his mind was completely blank, and he couldn't think of a suitable person at all.

It seems we can only wait for Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna to return so that the two of them can choose suitable people to work with.

About half a month later, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna finally returned.

Su Chen quickly invited the two men to his office, explained what had happened, and shared his thoughts. He demanded that the two managers and others be dealt with properly, and that they send someone to take over the two space jump bases.

The two expressed dissatisfaction with Su Chen's handling of the situation, believing that Su Chen was too lenient.

Following his approach, anyone could potentially betray him in the future, since there wouldn't be much loss even if he did.

Tang Yumo insisted that they should be severely punished, preferably by making them disappear, as a warning to others.

Su Chen glanced at them and said firmly, "I've already promised them. This time, they took the initiative to admit their mistakes. They are still kind-hearted and know right from wrong. People like them should be given a chance."

"As for their punishment, there's no need to discuss it anymore. Just do as I say. Your main task is to inspect the space jump base again and make sure nothing like this happens again."

Tang Yumo nodded, looking at Yuan Jingna with a helpless expression, as if to say something.

Yuan Jingna opened her mouth, but ultimately shook her head at Tang Yumo, signaling him not to say anything.

What else can be said now? Su Chen has already made himself very clear, and he has already expressed everything in public.

If they persuade Su Chen to change his previous strategy, it will have a certain impact on Su Chen.

Su Chen breaking his promise is not something they want to see.

The two walked down the corridor, their footsteps making a clattering sound.

They were in a slightly somber mood, and after exchanging a glance, they didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long time, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna asked if there was anyone they could recommend.

Yuan Jingna thought for a moment and said, "You know a lot of people, why don't you make a recommendation?"

Tang Yumo rolled her eyes and teased with a smile, "Are you afraid of getting into trouble, so you're pushing things onto me?"

Yuan Jingna shook her head. He was mainly responsible for research at the base, and most of the people he knew were experts.

These experts are really not good at leading others. They have eccentric personalities, don't like meeting strangers, and speak rather harshly. How can they be managers?
Tang Yumo was different. Although he also did research, he knew more people, especially since he was very popular at the base.

Despite his ruthless methods, Tang Yumo has the best interpersonal relationships.

Many people sometimes ask him for help.

Yuan Jingna smiled and praised Tang Yumo, making him beam with joy. His previous thoughts vanished, and he stroked his chin, pondering who should be sent to manage the two space jump bases.

After much thought, he came up with two people.

Retrieve the files of these two individuals and submit them to Yuan Jingna for review first.

Yuan Jingna felt there were no problems, so the two of them handed it over to Su Chen for review. After Su Chen felt there were no problems, they called the two of them over to him and asked if they were willing to take over the management.

At the same time, they were also warned about what they should and shouldn't do, and why they should be the two of them in charge.

Because those two people had made a mistake, and the mistake they made was explained to them very clearly.

These two people were naturally willing, as they were staff members of the base.

They weren't technical staff, but rather management staff. They had previously been managing other aspects of the base, such as warehouse management, canteen management, and other related matters.

These management functions are lower-level. If you go to manage the space jump base, then your position will definitely be higher, and you will enjoy better benefits.

In reality, even the most basic jobs here offer very good pay, enough for them to live on Earth. However, higher pay is naturally what everyone desires.

After a thorough review, it was determined that the two individuals had no issues.

Tang Yumo told the two of them to pack up, as they would be going to two other bases in a few days.

In addition, they also need to find a group of technicians and other personnel to manage space jumps.

Since the previous personnel could no longer be trusted, they had to be reassigned elsewhere, leaving the entire space jump base practically empty and needing to be filled.

There aren't many people at space jump bases to begin with; the largest space jump base only has a little over fifty people.

The two space jump bases that are currently replacing personnel each have about twenty people, so there is no shortage of personnel.

After finding the right person, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna visited Su Chen again to ask him if he had any instructions.

Su Chen only gave one instruction: to be lenient towards those who were to be kicked out, to consider their future lives, to be mindful of the impact, to prevent others from gossiping, and to make sure these people were properly taken care of.

Tang Yumo grunted in dissatisfaction, then turned and left.

Yuan Jingna smiled apologetically, shook her head, and left.

The two boarded a starship and headed towards the first space jump base that was to be replaced.

When they arrived at the base, the administrators were already waiting. They felt a chill when they saw Tang Yumo.

He knew Tang Yumo's methods.

Tang Yumo glared at him irritably, threw the paperwork at him, and said, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

The other party quickly shook their head and said, "We're ready. Where do you think we should go?"

Yuan Jingna said gently, "We have already arranged places for you. To the outside world, we will say that you need to be transferred because the space jump base needs to be adjusted."

"The place we'll take you to is a planetary base in the Milky Way galaxy. You can work there, and your benefits will remain the same."

The other person nodded gratefully and dared not say anything more.

The base that Yuan Jingna mentioned is actually like a prison that has been left unattended.

Most of the people in this base had made mistakes, or rather, their ulterior motives had been discovered by Tang Yumo and her group long ago, so they were sent to that planet.

Of course, many people don't know this, including those who went inside. (End of Chapter)
