"Name?"

"Mu Fan".

"Let me see. His place of origin is Luoqie Star, he's from the Zicui Star examination center, and his status is Core Student among the specially recruited students of the Dingchuan Academy. Is that correct?"

The captain suddenly realized what was going on and took out a light and shadow tablet to retrieve the data.

"His tablet only contains daily drill training lessons and a completely empty communication system. He's lying," Hei Dandan exposed the other party's trick.

Mu Fan nodded calmly, indicating that he was right.

Seeing the boy's overly calm demeanor and his apparent lack of interest in responding, the captain chuckled and said, "Relax, I'm just asking some very simple questions. I am Gu Qing, a second-level captain in the Landu Star Second-Level Military Department."

After speaking, Gu Qing stared intently at Mu Fan, but he saw no change in the boy's eyes. He simply nodded perfunctorily, "Hello Captain Gu."

Upon hearing these four words, Gu Qing knew that Mu Fan was not someone to be trifled with; his stubbornness was quite reminiscent of that of spies.

However, recalling the colonel's instructions, Gu Qing quietly changed her mind and continued to ask, "Mu Fan, I have a few questions for you, and I hope you can answer them truthfully."

"Please speak."

Mu Fan's posture became more and more standard, and his upright upper body made him look like a heroic and extraordinary soldier from any angle.

"Regarding Planet 131, according to the data shared by the base, you were the first to discover the Zerg Race lair, the first to discover the Zerg Race ambush, and the first to discover the Zerg Race night raid... As a cadet, don't you think you've done a bit too much?"

Mu Fan seemed to have been prepared for this, and after a moment's thought, he said, "Regarding the discovery of the Zerg Race's lair, it wasn't just me; it was a joint discovery between Yin Shuai and me. As for the remaining two matters, it might be related to my keen intuition."

"There's a recording in this room, so you need to make sure you have solid evidence when you speak. This captain has ulterior motives," a dark voice whispered.

Clearly, both Gu Qing on the other side and some people watching through the monitors wanted to find something wrong with Mu Fan's words.

Upon hearing Hei's words, Mu Fan saw that Gu Qing was about to speak, but he spoke up first, "Regarding what I said, the entire incident was recorded by the Battlefield Recorder in the ship's database. Please refer to it, Captain."

Gu Qing's words caught in her throat, while Mu Fan lowered his eyelids, once again adopting the demeanor of an obedient student.

"Mu Fan, according to the information we have, how did a student from an ordinary background who just entered the academy acquire such advanced mecha skills? This information has never appeared in your personal file before."

Gu Qing tapped a few times on the tablet, and an image appeared: Mu Fan driving the Lacerator and charging forward with a battle flag in hand. His figure, flashing like the wind, was impossible to reconcile with a boy who was only 17 years old.

"That might be because I haven't revealed relevant information before. I haven't hidden my mecha skills. You can check the Luoqi Heavy Industries Qualification Tournament at the Landu Star Mecha Exhibition two weeks ago. As a pilot, I participated in two battles in the Extremely Special Soldier Mecha. I think that's enough to demonstrate my mecha skills. If you want to ask for more details, you can verify it with Mr. Wang Ji of Luoqi Heavy Industries."

Mu Fan's face remained expressionless, as if he were simply answering a question.

However, Gu Qing's expression was no longer as cheerful as before; he had underestimated how troublesome Mu Fan was.

The information says that this boy is not good at socializing and speaking.

Those who provided the information, come and see this watertight response! It's even more professional than intelligence work!

However, thinking about her mission, Gu Qing suppressed her discomfort.

Fingers began tapping rhythmically on the alloy tabletop.

The other person's actions were instantly analyzed by Mu Fan, and a smile began to appear on his face.

This indicates that the opponent's rhythm is starting to be disrupted.

"Very good. So far, my evaluation of your posture and speech is 100, and there haven't been any deductions. The anti-interrogation training is to try to answer questions within 0.2-0.4 seconds after the other party speaks, while maintaining your heart rate and facial expressions. I think you've done very well in this aspect. You've maintained a blank expression so far, which is actually the hardest thing to tell."

Blackie's words left Mu Fan unsure whether to be proud or laugh; what a poker face!

At this moment, a message flashed on the light and shadow tablet in front of Gu Qing, and his expression changed slightly after reading it.

Then he looked up and smiled at Mu Fan, saying, "Please don't mind, Mu Fan. My questioning is complete. This is a normal procedure for the military."

"Understand."

"Now that we've covered the most important point, you can leave." Gu Qing stared at Mu Fan, his tone gradually becoming stern. "The military has issued Sealing Order regarding Planet 131. All personnel participating in the Planet 131 special training are strictly prohibited from revealing a single word about anything they see or know about happening on the planet. Any violation Military Justice Punishment!"

"If you have no objections, please sign this document."

A document combining paper and electronic files was thrown at me.

Mu Fan picked it up and looked through it. The Sealing Order issued by the military this time was too strict and detailed. Moreover, regarding the punishment stage, the lowest level would be to go to the Border Planet to fight for more than 5 years!

The signature was clearly that of the First-Level Military Department.

This is a document from the military headquarters on the Capital Star...

It seems the military doesn't want anyone to know about the changes on Planet 131, but why did the space pirates find out about their own return journey?

Moreover, this Sealing Order was issued rather harshly, as some people already knew about it before the departure.

However, after reading it, Mu Fan signed his name without hesitation, then pressed his finger on the electronic file to register his fingerprint.

Seeing Mu Fan sign so readily, Gu Qing finally showed a genuine smile.

As he collected the documents, he said, "Due to the military's Sealing Order, all rewards related to this Zerg Race extermination training are cancelled. I heard that Major Lin Hao has already applied for Medal of Honor for Mu Fan; please be prepared."

His face, which looked like he was asking for a beating, was telling a cruel truth: Mu Fan probably really had no honor left to speak of.

Mu Fan lowered his eyelids for a moment, then raised them again. "Thank you for the reminder, Captain Gu. May I leave now?"

"Oh, of course."

Gu Qing reached out and led Mu Fan out of room G12. After watching Mu Fan leave, Gu Qing took out the light and shadow tablet again and looked at the information on it.

"Quickly finish the review and come to the 3rd floor Tactical Seminar Hall - [Li Shen]."

Colonel Li's message: Has something changed?

Watching the boy's departing figure, Gu Qing quickly stepped into the transmission suspension elevator.

At this moment, on the third floor of the security building, in a spacious conference hall, Li Shen and a group of the Command Department officers sat on one side of a long conference table, while Lin Hao sat on the other side.

The change of location indicates a change in the content of their discussion.

Li Shen looked down at the screen in front of him, tapped it with his finger, and a light screen projected a document.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the "Sealing Order" with Mu Fan's signature and fingerprint!

"Therefore, the details of the Centurion Medal that Major Lin mentioned are still under discussion, the military has decided to reject the Decurion Medal as well, and your students have already signed Sealing Order."

The calm tone suggested that he was merely reciting something.
