Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 208 Red Envelope (Additional Update for Alliance Leader Salted Fish Sage) (rd Update)
"We also saw some confidential documents in the room, which recorded some biological mecha experimental data and the like. However, those documents were not related to the mission, so we did not read them for long. We just flipped through them and put them back. After all, we had limited time and we still had to find a rescue target."

Su Ming avoided the main point and gave a half-truthful reply.

Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue were also surprised when they heard Su Ming's answer, but they quickly reacted and nodded to prove that what Su Ming said was true.

Garx kept looking at Su Ming, constantly observing the changes in his expression. Unfortunately, he didn't see anything unusual from beginning to end, so he replied kindly.

"Ah."

"But Lord Jakkers, there is one thing I don't quite understand."

At this time, Su Ming asked with a confused look on his face.

"go ahead."

Garx replied very cordially, like an elder.

"We've read those documents, and they don't seem fake. Why would the federal government put such confidential documents in the league? And why did the league choose the Fading Battle as the background this time?"

Su Ming took the initiative and asked directly. Of course, this question was also something that bothered him a lot and he couldn't figure it out.

After listening to Su Ming's words, Jakkers sighed and said.

“Well, originally this is a confidential matter and I can’t tell you. But since you asked, I will make an exception and tell you that this league was actually automatically generated by the artificial intelligence Celis, and the Federation did not intervene. Celis was quite willful, so she chose the Fading Battle as the background of the league.

“As for the confidential information, it is also true. The information was originally stored in the database of the artificial intelligence Celis, and was finally revealed.”

Jakkers did not find a stupid excuse to fool Su Ming and the other two, but instead avoided the main point and gave a very reasonable explanation.

"I see!"

Su Ming looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

At this time, Jakkers sighed and said to Su Ming and the other two.

"In fact, the main reason I called you here today is to ask you to keep the contents of the league secret. After all, if the matter of the Terra Royal Base is made public, it will definitely be embarrassing for the Federation, and those confidential information cannot be leaked!" "In fact, it is not easy for the Federation. The reason why the Federation has set up a base in the transit country of Tiberken and developed biological mechas without telling the public is to fight against the mechanical race and protect its own people. I hope you understand."

"Understand that everything the Federation does is for all the people."

Su Ming replied along the lines of what Jakkers said.

"Well, please sign this confidentiality agreement. Of course, it's not just you who have to sign this document. Everyone who participates in the competition has to sign it."

Jakkers was very satisfied with Su Ming's answer, and then took out three confidentiality agreements and handed them to the three people.

"Ok."

Su Ming and the other two immediately signed their names on the confidentiality agreement and handed the document to Jakkers.

After Jakkers took back the three documents, he took out three small red envelopes and handed them to the three people with a smile.

"This is a small gift for you. It is my way of congratulating you on your outstanding performance in the league."

"Thank you, Lord City Lord."

Su Ming and the other two did not refuse and each took one.

The three of them are not fools. Even though Jakkers said that the red envelope was a token of congratulations, any discerning person could see that it was hush money.

If you don't take the hush money, you probably won't be able to leave this door.

"Don't be so polite. I have some official business to attend to here, so I won't see you off."

Jakkers said to Su Ming and the other two with a smile.

"Okay, Lord City Lord, we will take our leave first."

Su Ming and the other two bowed to Jakkers and turned to leave. Jakkers watched the three people leave, and the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a solemn expression.

In fact, he immediately asked the artificial intelligence optical computer Celis to retrieve the subsequent video images, but Celis refused, saying that it had been hacked and the data was lost. The reason for this was that Celis had always hated him and believed that he was the cause of the death of the Kingdom of Taberken and her parents.

That's why he needed to call Su Ming and the other two over for questioning.

However, judging from the question just now, there should be no problem. When Su Ming answered, his expression did not show any abnormality.

But the more this happened, the more Jakkers felt that something was wrong, and the key was that he couldn't tell what the problem was.

On the other side, Su Ming and the other two walked out of the retro building.

"Huh, I didn't expect that we would actually be meeting Lord Jakkers. I'm really nervous."

Lin Chuyu said with a long sigh.

"It was indeed very stressful, but it's all over. Let's take a look at the red envelope."

An Ruoxue said with a smile.

"it is good!"

Su Ming was the first to open the red envelope, and found a check inside with the amount filled in for 1 million federal coins.

Looking at the check, he couldn't help but secretly praise Jakkers for being really good at giving, just the right amount!

If Jakkers gave very little hush money, the three of them might be dissatisfied. At the same time, they might also feel strange that he called them so solemnly to keep the secret, but only gave them such a small amount. There might be something wrong.

However, if the reward is too generous, it is also easy for them to think that the secrets they see are very important, and that there must be shameful secrets hidden in them, and then they will try hard to recall and study them.

And these 1 million federal coins are just right, neither too much nor too little.

"That's a lot of money."

Lin Chuyu said in amazement.

"The red envelope given by the city lord is naturally not too small. Let's go back quickly."

Su Ming said to Lin Chuyu with a smile.

"it is good!"

Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue nodded.

A moment later, Su Ming and others came to the atrium, and saw staff members in white shirts cashing checks for winners. Lai Rhine and others were also cashing checks.

At this moment, the cell phone in Su Ming's pocket vibrated. He took it out and took a look. He saw two deposits into the account, one for 30 federal coins and the other for 5 federal coins.

These two sums of money should be divided between senior Irelia and senior Bergfins. I have to say that these two seniors have really good vision.

Even though they are in high positions now and seem to have no shortage of money, in fact they are short of money more than anyone else. After all, the higher you go, the more you spend.

"Let's go change the money so we don't have to go to the bank again."

An Ruoxue suggested with a smile.

"it is good!"

Su Ming and Lin Chuyu nodded in response, and then they stepped forward to exchange.

It didn't take long for Su Ming to change. He said a simple goodbye to Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue, and then gathered with his classmates.
