Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 1141

Chapter 1141 Judgment!

After three days, the merits rewarded for the battle were announced.

All of the meca clans in Base Nebula received a third-rank group award, while the mecha clans who had fought in the battle received a second-rank group award based on the battle reports. Some mecha clans had also received a first-rank award. Mecha operators who performed well were also awarded with individual awards for their achievements.

Lingtian, which had put in the most effort and could even be considered the determining factor of the entire battle, was not mentioned even once during the announcement of the rewards. There was only a small tidbit explaining that Lingtian Mecha Clan's achievements and rewards hadn't been arranged and would be publicly announced in the next few days.

Lingtian Mecha Clan weren't weirded out by this. Wasn't the battle on Planet Haijiao the same as well? After every battle, the military awards and merits always had difficulty appearing on their laps.

They understood that it was because their regiment commander was always making great surprises. These surprises were so large that the military couldn't quickly digest it. Only after the military or rather the entire Federation ran around in circles, would they be able to even get a glimpse of their awards.

Without mentioning other people, just the foreign affairs officers, who were at the Intergalactic United Nations, would be berated with insults and questions every day. They even had a few times when they were in handcuffs. They were so disheveled that they couldn't even maintain the impression of being foreign affairs officers.

Thus, all the departments in the military, especially the foreign affairs department of the government didn't really have a very good impression of Lingtian. When Lingtian was mentioned, they would think of those audacious b.a.s.t.a.r.ds… it was a love and hate relations.h.i.+p.

In this situation like this, how could the military's higher-ups give out awards so easily? They still had to try their best to nitpick and try to find problems with their perfect result in order to find ways to decrease their military merits. The lower the merits, the better they would feel. Doing this wasn't any beneficial to them but they still wanted to do this just for the sole reason of looking at a defeated Lingtian. These higher-ups would be extremely exhilarated when that time does come… or not.

However, Lingtian wasn't scared. Lingtian wasn't a step-son with no connections or anything as there was still the big boss standing behind them. General Ling Xiao was definitely not going to allow the military to give them any less than they deserved.

During the time Lingtian was waiting for the final results, Ling Lan wore her uniform and took Li Lanfeng, Zhao Jun and Li s.h.i.+yu, who didn't show up much, to Piercing Arrow's camping ground.

“Major General Ling, welcome to our camp.” After receiving the notification, Yu Wei led a portion of his leaders to welcome them.

“Regiment Commander Yu, sorry for the intrusion.” Ling Lan nodded calmly towards Yu Wei and followed him into his camping ground.

Everyone sat in the living room of the command center. After sitting down, Yu Wei asked Ling Lan for the reason why they were here today.

Ling Lan glanced at Li Lanfeng nonchalantly.

Li Lanfeng understood and said, “Regiment Commander Yu, we came here to see someone. We have some things we'd like to ask him.”

Yu Wei's curiosity peaked. “Who are you looking for?”

“Zhang Han!” Smiled Li Lanfeng.

Zhang Chao looked at Li Lanfeng with a stunned expression on his face and said anxiously, “Leader Li, how do you know my brother's name? Is this visit because of the leather whip? I've already taught him a lesson for disrespecting your subordinates.”

“It's not because of that. We just want to ask him if he knows someone,” Li Lanfeng explained in a warm tone.

Hearing this, Zhang Chao was no longer worried and said, “Alright, I'll call him over here.”

Zhang Chao quickly contacted Zhang Han for him to come to the command center as there were very important visitors who wanted to ask him something.

Not long after, Zhang Han arrived. Once he entered the living room and saw that Ling Lan was sitting in the main seat, his expression changed. His footsteps slowed down and his shoulder started slouching down.

“You good-for-nothing, get over here.” Seeing Zhan Han's cowardly posture, Zhang Chao became angry and shouted towards him.

Zhang Han put his head down, slowly walked towards Zhang Chao and said weakly, “Elder Brother!”

“Major General Ling has something to ask you. Answer him well.” Zhang Han's helpless expression made Zhang Chao feel sorry for him, so he held in his anger and prompted him with care.

“Yes, I understand.” Zhang Han nodded and walked in front of Yu Wei and Ling Lan and then saluted. He waited for the hard-hitting questions.

Seeing Zhang Han standing on attention, Li Lanfeng spoke, “Second Lieutenant Zhang, do you know Major w.a.n.g Junzhi?”

Zhang Han had a blank expression on his face. “No, I don't know him.”

Li Lanfeng turned on the virtual screen on his communicator and showed w.a.n.g Junzhi's image.

“Second Lieutenant Zhang, think carefully, have you seen this person before?” Li Lanfeng was very patient with his words.

Zhang Han thought for a while and after a few seconds, he shook his head again. “I'm sorry, I really don't remember.”

Seeing this, Zhang Chao quickly added, “Although my little brother is a bit useless, he doesn't really go out that much other than going out to buy daily necessities. He would stay in the camping ground most of the time so he won't know many people from the outside. I never heard him speak of this person so he probably doesn't know him.”

In reality, even Zhang Chao felt that the person in the image was unfamiliar. After all, Base Nebula was like a large city and every clan had their own location to set up camp. Some were even built away from the center of the base, so a lot of people might not even see each other even after retirement.

Li Lanfeng seemed to not want to let up and continued to ask, “You also haven't met him in the virtual world?”

Zhang Chao thought deeply for a moment before shaking his head with determination. “No, I definitely hadn't seen him before.”

“Alright, thank you, Second Lieutenant Zhang. Now there's another thing that we hope you can cooperate with us.” Li Lanfeng no longer focused on the matter about w.a.n.g Junzhi. He just gestured to Li s.h.i.+yu for him to come over.

Li s.h.i.+yu walked in front of Zhang Han and said politely, “Second Lieutenant Zhang, please cooperate with my examination of you.”

“Why?” Zhang Han performed a guarded stance.

“I have to make sure you were in a conscious state when you answered those questions just now,” Li s.h.i.+yu took out an evaluation booklet and said helplessly.

Li s.h.i.+yu was conducting this examination because there were countless types of medicinal agents in the market. Some medicinal agents could even successfully control a person's thoughts and force them to answer only about what they wanted to fool the investigators. Thus, all doc.u.mented questionings needed the evaluation of military doctors. This was to confirm that all of the answers made by the person in question were answered in a conscious state.

Hearing this, Zhang Han instantly loosened his guarded stance and didn't refuse Li s.h.i.+yu's examination of him.

After the evaluation, Li s.h.i.+yu nodded towards Li Lanfeng and then returned beside Ling Lan.

Li Lanfeng stood up and smiled towards Yu Wei. “Sorry, Regiment Commander Yu. We will need to take Zhang Han with us.”

Yu Wei was stunned. Zhang Han was even more stunned as he shouted, “Why?”

Zhang Chao was also stunned and said, “What's the meaning of this?”

Li Lanfeng smiled but didn't speak. Li s.h.i.+yu, who was standing beside Ling Lan, spoke up, “Although Second Lieutenant Zhang doesn't have any mind-numbing medicinal agents in his system, he still has something else controlling him.”

After hearing this, Zhang Han's expression's darkened instantly, “You're lying.

“According to data I have examined, after around 10 days, you would have to use that thing again. Otherwise, you would suffer a fate worse than death.” Faced with Zhang Han's anger, Li s.h.i.+yu calmly spoke out about what he had determined.
