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

The people in front of them naturally had no idea either.

They thought it was just a bad base, but they also understood one thing: the base Yuan Jingna mentioned was definitely not an important base; it was more like an exile.

They didn't have any illusions about that base.

Su Chen had previously instructed that these people should be properly arranged.

Therefore, Tang Yumo prepared two plans.

The second option is that they can choose to stay or leave; they can go to the place she arranges or choose to leave.

Ultimately, the choice is up to them.

When Tang Yumo revealed her second plan, everyone's eyes sparkled.

They were well aware that this option was better than the previous one.

Tang Yumo looked at them and said, "You can decide for yourselves how to choose."

Everyone nodded silently, pondering what they should do.

Tang Yumo didn't want to waste any more time talking to these people, so she went straight inside.

The others followed behind, silent and trembling, not daring to utter a single sound.

Upon arriving at the base, Tang Yumo carefully inspected the area and nodded in satisfaction.

These people were quite sensible; knowing they were leaving, they tidied up the base properly and didn't leave it in a mess.

He felt a little frustrated thinking about his previous misjudgment.

When I visited the base before, I didn't notice any difference. How come I didn't notice anything at all?

He shook his head helplessly; these people were really good at hiding themselves.

This group didn't have their own interstellar warships, so why did Tang Yumo and her group prepare two?

One ship will take them to the agreed-upon base, and the other will take them back to Earth.

This group of people chose to return to Earth, which was the wisest choice. Anyone who isn't a fool would understand that they shouldn't be working at the base under Su Chen's jurisdiction.

Because there is no hope for them, and no one will use them anymore.

Leaving is the best option.

Tang Yumo was satisfied with their choice, which saved her a lot of trouble.

If you choose to go to the base, some follow-up procedures will be required.

Although it's not a big deal, it's still a hassle.

Now it's all good. They can go back to Earth, and nothing will happen. All they have to do is send them away.

Tang Yumo immediately saw the group off without asking any questions or checking their luggage.

Tang Yumo was not afraid of them leaving anything behind, nor was she afraid of them taking anything away.

As long as the space jump base still exists, there's nothing to worry about.

The core technology here is spatial jump; other things are optional and not very important.

Watching the group leave, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna showed slightly sad expressions.

Some of these people were people they knew and had worked with before, but now they were going against their wishes and leaving them behind. They didn't know what the future held for them.

It's still a bit sad to think about. The two looked at each other, wondering how long they could stay together.

Perhaps one day, they might go their separate ways.

This is not impossible; they can only silently pray that such a thing will not happen.

As time went on, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna quickly mastered the first space jump base and made proper arrangements for all personnel.

We spent some more time at the base, where we taught everyone some relevant technical courses.

The two then left and headed to another space jump base.

They assumed the number of people at the two space jump bases should be roughly the same.

When the two returned to the base, they found that the people there were clearly different from those at the other base.

The people at this base are more carefree. Although they made mistakes, they don't feel anything is wrong. They continue doing what they were supposed to do and maintain their original jobs.

When Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna arrived, they immediately lined up to greet the two of them without saying a word.

Everyone just watched them silently. Tang Yumo saw indifference and guilt on their faces.

He repeated what he had said before, asking the group to choose one of the options.

This group made the same choice as the previous ones: they all chose to return to Earth.

Some people are already quite old, and even without this incident, some of them would have preferred to return to Earth to enjoy a life of leisure and not work anymore. There are many such people.

Others are there for other reasons, such as homesickness.

For example, it could be a personal matter.

Therefore, a considerable number of people would not mind returning to Earth.

Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna felt they should investigate the group of people in front of them more thoroughly.

Given this attitude, Tang Yumo had reason to suspect that there might be some prohibited items among what they were carrying.

After a thorough inspection, it was found that everything the group had packed consisted of their personal belongings.

They didn't touch anything else inside the base.

Tang Yumo was very satisfied and let them leave on the interstellar warship.

After spending a few more days at the space jump base, they decided to return.

Before heading back, I contacted Su Chen to report the situation.

Su Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Since you've already gone, then go and check all the space jump bases and see if there are any problems."

Su Chen didn't explain it very clearly, but Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna were both smart people and immediately understood Su Chen's intention.

Su Chen wanted them to check if there were any problems with the other space jump bases.

Two space jump bases were discovered, but what about the others?

This still requires investigation, but we can't just openly investigate; we have to keep it hidden. So we need to be cautious and find ways to understand the entire space jump base.

Since there are still quite a few space jump bases around here, Tang Yumo and Yuan Jingna split up to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

After planning the space jump base they wanted to investigate, the two separated and boarded interstellar warships to patrol the base.

Tang Yumo arrived at a space jump base, where the people, having heard the news, were already welcoming him and had even held a rather grand welcoming ceremony for him. After meeting everyone, Tang Yumo was very polite and inquired about the base's situation. The administrator described the base to him in detail.

Although Tang Yumo did not explain his purpose, everyone knew what he was here for after what happened before, so they tried their best to satisfy him and not make him suspicious.

Everyone had heard about the handling of the two managers and the base personnel. They just discussed it privately and had no objections, nor did they think Su Chen's punishment was wrong.

Tang Yumo chatted briefly with everyone and did a short tour of the base, finding nothing wrong with it.

However, for certain reasons, he stayed at the base for a few days, hoping that someone would come to him and tell him some secrets that no one else knew.

Unfortunately, after waiting for several days, no one came looking for him.

He didn't sit idle during the days he waited; he kept doing things, but unfortunately, he didn't find anything.

He then set off for the next base.

Yuan Jingna's situation is completely opposite to Tang Yumo's, because Tang Yumo is perceived as extremely ruthless. Although she is well-liked, people are also afraid of her.

Yuan Jingna was different. She was always very gentle and chatted with everyone, so even when he came to the space jump base, no one was afraid of her.

Everyone liked him very much, and some people even came to pursue him with flowers, which left Yuan Jingna speechless.

Neither of them had gained anything, and they met up at the last space jump base.
The two men exchanged glances, and it was clear from each other's eyes that the mission had yielded no results.

This made the two of them quite happy; no gain was good news.

If there is any real gain, that would be a bad thing.

Their only worry was whether the other party was hiding it too well and they hadn't discovered it.

The two discussed the details again, confirmed that there were no problems, and then stayed at the last base for a while longer.

There were no problems with the base, so the two of them boarded a starship and returned to Su Chen's side.

First, he reported the current situation to Su Chen.

After listening, Su Chen nodded in satisfaction and then said, "Chen Anrong suddenly contacted me a while ago, saying that she needs a group of technicians to help her build some things. Why don't you find a group of people to go and help?"

He paused for a moment at this point.

"Do you think it would be suitable for the two of you to go?"

Tang Yumo immediately shook her head, saying that anyone could go, but she wouldn't go.

He turned his head away, giving off an "I don't care" vibe.

Su Chen didn't intend to let him go either. He stared intently at Yuan Jingna, pinning his only hope on her.

Yuan Jingna thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "Is it really necessary for us to go? Couldn't we just send anyone?"

"He's not an important person, and we don't have a very good relationship."

Su Chen said, "This is the first time I'm going to help him, so I personally think we should take it seriously and also check on the situation at his base."

"Wouldn't it be even better if we could uncover some other information?"

Yuan Jingna shrugged and said with a smile that she would go by herself.

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction, gave him some instructions, and then sent the two men away.

Tang Yumo complained to Su Chen as she walked back.

Yuan Jingna listened quietly from the side and asked him if he had any instructions.

Tang Yumo said with a fierce look in her eyes, "My advice is to ignore him."

Yuan Jingna remained silent. Su Chen had already assigned the task, and she couldn't ignore it.

Tang Yumo added, "Even if you're going to get involved, only handle matters within your job responsibilities. Don't get involved in anything else."
Yuan Jingna hummed in agreement and remained silent.

A few days later, Yuan Jingna led a group of people to a nearby planetary base.

Chen Anrong had already arranged for excellent rooms to be prepared for this group of people, and at the same time, he also prepared a lot of delicious food.

He came to greet Yuan Jingna in person. Yuan Jingna nodded to him, and the two smiled at each other without saying anything.

Chen Anrong was actually quite happy; the person he feared most was Tang Yumo.

That girl is sharp-tongued and can say anything; he really doesn't know how to deal with her.

A gentle-natured girl named Yuan Jingna has arrived, and I can chat with her. He certainly won't suffer any harsh words or sarcastic remarks.

Chen Anrong asked him if he wanted to take a walk around the base, but Chen Anrong quickly waved his hand, as he didn't want to wander around someone else's base.

Many people visit other people's bases wanting to see what's there, how they were built, and what new features they have.

However, Yuan Jingna never liked visiting other people's bases.

Of course, he would sometimes visit his own base, but he would never have any inappropriate thoughts about other people's bases.

Chen Anrong was surprised that Yuan Jingna didn't look at it. He thought Yuan Jingna would definitely want to see what he could do after going solo, but he was disappointed.

Chen Anrong felt a little bitter. Although he needed Su Chen and the others' help now, the base had finally taken shape thanks to his own efforts.

Although it's not particularly good, it's enough for everyone to live here peacefully.

What he needs help with are some technical aspects.

He has already finished the basic construction of the base, so he doesn't need any help.

He led Yuan Jingna to the room, opened the door, and asked her if it was suitable. He said he could change it for her if it wasn't.

Yuan Jingna nodded, very satisfied with the room. It seemed that Chen Anrong had kept a close watch on her, as she actually knew what kind of room she liked, what colors she liked, and what the layout of the room was like.

He is indeed a meticulous person and a capable person, but unfortunately he took the wrong path.

Yuan Jingna sighed with a hint of emotion, sat down on the sofa next to him, and asked if there was anything else. If not, he was going to rest.

Yuan Jingna said, "Take a rest. Rest for a few more days. Let me know when you're rested so I can arrange some work for you."

Yuan Jingna quickly corrected, "It's not about assigning work to us, it's about assigning work to them. I won't be working, I'll just stay here for a few days. They don't need much rest either, they can start working tomorrow. If you need anything, just contact them directly."

"I have already told them that your orders are the same as my orders."

Chen Anrong hummed in agreement, indicating that she understood.

But the next day, instead of making them work, he gave them another day off.

The next day, he came to Yuan Jingna to report on his work, and then went to find the group of people to get them to work.

Yuan Jingna shook her head as she watched his retreating figure. To be fair, Chen Anrong definitely had some skill in dealing with people and situations.

But then he made such a serious mistake.

For example, everything he just did showed he knew how to respect others. Although I told him to just communicate directly with that group, he didn't do that. Instead, he reported to me first and then went to find them. (End of Chapter)
