Chapter 1268.

“Please come in.”

Wang Dust, who was sitting in front of his desk flipping through the information, had just raised his head when he saw Meng Liang’o push the door open.

Wang Dust’s gaze flickered as he rose and saluted, “Good day, sir.”

“You sit.”

Meng Liang’ao smilingly returned the salute, “There’s no need for us fellow officers to be so polite.”

This Morihai 1st Machine Infantry Regiment Commander took a seat across from Wang Dust, then fished out cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket, “Would you like one?”

Wang Dust shook his head, “Thank you sir, I don’t smoke.”

“It’s good to be young.”

Meng Liang’ao lit a cigarette for himself, then took a beautiful drag, actually not spitting out a single drop.

Wang Dust smiled and watched him finish a cigarette.

Meng Liang’ao sighed, put down the lighter in his hand, and inquired, “Staff Sergeant Wang, it’s been half a month since you came to the First Machine Infantry Regiment, how do you feel? Can you adapt to the conditions here? You can tell me if there are any difficulties.”

Wang Dust politely replied, “Thank you sir for your concern, it’s all fine.”

Meng Liang’ao stared at Wang Dust in a daze, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, as if he wanted to pierce through the latter’s soul.

Wang Chen kept his smile unchanged.

After a moment, Meng Liang’ao withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice, “Counselor Wang, let me get right to it, what exactly do you want to do?”

He had seen a lot of young people in his half-life, nobles, scholars, citizens as well as lowly folk, both ordinary and common people as well as those with heavenly pride, so he could be considered to have seen a lot.

But Meng Liangao had never seen a young man like Wang Chen.

At his age, he was full of vigor and fervor, but he had a composure and sophistication that was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

He had tried several times, but only found it unfathomable!

During this period of time, even though Wang Chuan didn’t cause any trouble, for Meng Liang’ao, Wang Chuan’s existence was like an invisible fishbone, stuck in his own throat that he couldn’t swallow and couldn’t pull out.

It was very, very uncomfortable!

Meng Liang’ao could no longer remember who was the last person to bring him such a feeling.

But there were definitely not many such people.

And his intuition told him that it was simply impossible to deal with Wang Dust using conventional means, which was why he took the initiative today.

Let things see the light of day!

“Want to do what?”

Wang Dust collected his smile and said lightly, “Captain Meng, I’m a bit confused by your words, I’m just fulfilling my duties, what’s wrong with that?”

“You didn’t do anything wrong.”

Meng Liang’ao annoyingly pulled out his cigarette case again and took out another cigarette and lit it, “But you’re making me uncomfortable!”

Saying the words he had pressed in his heart, he instantly felt much more comfortable.

In fact, Meng Liang’ao didn’t realize that his outburst today was entirely the result of Wang Duan’s active pressure.

During this period of time, Wang Dust did not do anything out of the ordinary or beyond his authority, but he constantly accessed the files of the First Mechanical Infantry Regiment, and made frequent inspections inside the base…….

So all these things, little by little, the pressure brought to Meng Liang’ao superimposed, but as if there is the weight of a mountain!

Wang Duan laughed: “Meng leader, there is a proverb that says, do not do anything wrong in life, not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, what are you afraid of?”

Meng Liangao froze, then his face turned red, “What do I have to be afraid of?”

He raised his palm and wanted to slap the table, but he didn’t know what he thought of, but he held back.

This Machine Infantry Regiment took a long breath, quickly regained his composure, and said with a dumbfounded smile, “Forget it, Staff Sergeant Wang, let me talk to you openly and honestly, are you here to investigate the rebel forces?”

Wang Chen stared at the other party, his gaze cold and stern as a knife, “Captain Meng, you should know that the dignity of the Imperial Army cannot be insulted!”

Meng Liang’o subconsciously lowered his eyes, not daring to meet Wang Chen’s gaze.

The atmosphere in the staff room suddenly became heavy and depressing.

After a long time, Meng Liang’ao sighed and said, “Staff Officer Wang, it’s not that I don’t want to act, but the situation on Senghai Star is really too special, and what I can do is really limited.”

As a matter of fact, the upper echelons of the empire, had long known of the existence of rebel forces on Senhai Star.

It was only that this planet belonged to the Ecological Experiment Star, and most of the minerals had already been mined out, and the remaining value was very limited, so it simply couldn’t enter the eyes of the bigwigs.

As for the rebel forces hiding in the underground mines, for them, they were like rats in the sewers, if they could be easily killed, then they would be killed with their hands.

But if the cost of purging it was too great, then it would be a complete loss!

As for Meng Liangao, he was thrown here to maintain the situation, his background was indeed very powerful, but he was just an outcast of the family, and with the very limited power at his disposal, it was really hard to do anything about it.

It was because of this that he was still sitting on the throne of the First Machine Infantry Regiment Commander after such a big incident last time.

No one else who had the ability to sit in this position was willing to do so, nor could they do a better job than Meng Liangao!

For Meng Liang’ao, maintaining the stability of Gensen Base was most important.

What he wanted was to serve out his term and then transfer back to the main planet at any cost.

This caused Meng Liang’ao to be very worried that Wang Chen would toss up a big incident, and he would have to follow and be implicated at that time!

“Alright, I understand your thoughts.”

Wang Dust listened patiently to Meng Liang’o pour out his bitterness, then said, “I need a name right now.”

Meng Liangao froze, “What name?”

Wang Dust asked in return, “What do you think?”

Meng Liang’o’s face instantly turned ugly, and he hesitated for a moment before he gritted his teeth and replied, “If you’re looking for news about the rebel forces, the Miners’ Mutual Aid Association might know something about it.”

The Miners’ Mutual Aid Association, as its name suggests, is the miners’ organization of Senghai Star, and this type of organization exists widely within the empire, as long as it is registered it is legal, and its role is mainly to help each other among its members, as well as to fight for their rights and interests and so on.

But the miners’ mutual aid association of Senghai star is a bit different, due to the special situation of this planet, this organization has become the biggest civil force in Yin Sen underground city.

Without a legitimate reason, Meng Liang’ao didn’t dare to easily deal with the Miners’ Mutual Aid Association, lest the latter initiate a large-scale explosion!

After all, the mineral deposits near the Gensen base still needed them to mine.

In addition, many of the soldiers of the Senkai First Mechanized Infantry Regiment, including some of the middle and lower level officers, were locals and had a close relationship with the Miners’ Mutual Aid Association.

This made Meng Liang’o even more suspicious.

But he was certain that the Miners’ Mutual Aid Association must be involved with the rebel forces.

It was just that there was no evidence.

This Morihai First Machine Infantry Regiment Commander purposely emphasized, “They’re not to be messed with, if you can’t slap them to death, it’s best not to act rashly.”

He was most afraid of Wang Dust messing around.

“I understand.”

Wang Dust smiled and said, “Thank you for the reminder.”

Looking at the smile on Wang Dust’s face, Meng Liang’o’s heart was suddenly flooded with a chill.
