They are quite fond of each other and have come to Xingtie

Many times, whether a time traveler is willing to intervene or not is mainly determined by whether he can benefit from the action – and making himself feel good and having a clear conscience is obviously one of them, which is a kind of advanced self-satisfaction.
“Little guy, mark the coordinates of the virtual soldiers for me, I will go and clean them up, and your funeral can continue.”
Kong let go of Wuwubo’s tail and said, “But after this is over, your area of activity will still be restricted. Is that okay?”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
Uncle Woowoo actually nodded to show his understanding – even though he only had a “head” on his body.
“…Esther, do me a favor. Did Rongchang leave any letters or works when he was still in Jiezhongke? Pack them up and give them to Alan. I will pick them up from him later.”
30. Consciousness gradually blurs, and goals gradually become clear
“…Is this the legendary ghost?”
“I was frightened by Uncle Wuwu and passed out…Ahhh, I am too embarrassed to face anyone!”
“It’s okay. You’re not the only one who fainted from shock. There are three unlucky guys lying in the medical department right now.”
“Brother, can you please change your pants first before talking?”
As part of the deal, Kong went back to the Defense Department with Wuwubo, took away Rongchangzhong’s paper thesis, and took this opportunity to let the staff know the true identity of the so-called ghost.
Fortunately, Uncle Wuwu didn’t look particularly bitter and vengeful. He was just the right kind of cute little thing to be used as a doll material. As soon as he showed up, the staff members quickly came out of their frightened state.
Elhaisen’s theory does have its merits. The smarter a person claims to be, the easier it is for him to find reasons to convince himself, not to mention the geniuses like the clerks. Although the ghosts encountered by many clerks are not Wuwuber, as long as they insist that they encountered Wuwuber with the help of Alan and Ester, the impact of this incident will soon fade away.
In addition, when Eula returned to the Defense Department for the second time to calm the staff members, she had a “theoretical basis” and a “factual basis”. Perhaps because her image was really good and her words were very inspiring, many staff members were willing to return to their positions in the support section to continue working.
This was the first time that Eula used the image of “Mrs. Kong” to exert her social influence. Many people began to have a basic understanding of the blue-haired beauty beside Kong and bound them together.
With the addition of Paimon, it feels like a family of three traveling together.
After getting the thesis of the deceased clerk, Wuwubo’s sadness was relieved. It “held” the thesis and floated behind Kong, parallel to Paimon.
“…It said that this paper was written by Rong Changzhong when he was working in the Department of World Species, but it was not approved after many submissions, and the research funding was also cut off. Since then, Rong Changzhong has never recovered, and no matter how the uncles comfort him, it is useless.”
Kong sighed, “Woowoobo has the intelligence of a six-year-old child… but they know how to understand Rong Changzhong’s thesis progress and life situation… How many people can’t even figure out whether their subordinates’ work and papers are valuable? People are worse than ghosts.”
“…Uh, Mr. Kong…actually…” Estelle, who had been on speakerphone, lowered her voice further.
“I’m not blaming you, Esta, nor Alan. Your division of labor means that you shouldn’t bear the main responsibility for this tragedy… I said something sarcastic to Heita yesterday, but you and I both know her situation. She never intended to care about the life and death of any staff member from the beginning. She even admitted her selfishness after saying the ugly words up front… I can only criticize her but can’t force her to correct it.”
With Alan’s apologetic gaze on his back, Sora continued, “This tragedy is related to your complete trust in the scoring system. Logically, the evaluation scores of section officers should be determined by a more comprehensive assessment that is related to performance. Alan, the proposal I wrote to you included a proposal to add GPA to the defense section’s patrol duty hours. Training results and actual labor together constitute a security guard’s score… You can promote this type of assessment to other sections.”
“I’ll give it a try.”
Alan didn’t answer, but Estelle listened.
“Also… I’ve read Rong Keyuan’s paper and I think it’s a very valuable topic. We can use Wuwubo’s bionic structure research to expand it to the development of psychic equipment. This might be a topic that even the Black Tower would take a second look at – it was rejected seven times in a row. Esta, it seems that there are some arrogant guys in the academic system of the space station. Even if he snatches the authorship of this paper, it’s better than not approving it at all.”
“Regarding the thesis, I have already found the main person in charge and will deal with it later.”
Esta’s expression on the other side of the screen became increasingly serious.
After all, she indirectly destroyed the will of a clerk, and Ester finally decided to use her iron fist as the “big lady of the company”.
She would not always be kind to others, or rather, even if she did not do it herself, she would find a way to make someone pay for his arrogance:
“Mr. Kong, your advice is really helpful to us. Why don’t you tell me more so I can make up for it quickly.”
“In fact, these are all commonplace flaws… The fact that you were able to manage the business to this point without the Black Tower letting you go is already worth learning from.”
Sora was not polite and continued to criticize, “But concentrating the genius officers together for use will lead to deviations in their self-perception. You need to think carefully about how to solve this problem. The officers’ talents are indeed not worth mentioning compared to Black Tower, but sometimes if they are dispersed a little, those geniuses can do much better, because after they realize their own extraordinary qualities, they will easily develop self-esteem – they will not sink into working day and night, and their research efficiency will also be improved. Your current form of ‘containment’ of the officers is really a waste.”
“…It seems so…Do you have any suggestions on this?”
Esther’s eyes lit up and she took out her electronic notebook and began to take notes seriously.
“My suggestion is to invest in these staff members in your name or in Black Tower’s name. After they have worked in a department for a period of time, their overall scores are high and they have proposed valuable topics, we will expand the space station or set up a separate laboratory for them to conduct research and development like a mentor would.”
Sora picked up the hands-free phone and said, “Believe me, in my opinion, the value these staff members can create is definitely worth your investment. I have already seen many people and projects with potential.”
“Is that so? I’ve thought of a similar method… but the expected return… and the realization of the patent… and the worship of Ms. Black Tower…”
Estelle began to feel conflicted.
“…The Black Tower won’t look at them straight anyway, but Esta, you can’t treat them as non-human beings. You are the investor and an important figure in the company. Think about how to use the Interstellar Peace Company as a second platform to help the staff develop their research. This will also help you improve your status in the company and continue to move freely. If you do well, maybe you can replicate the glory of the ‘Educational Society’.”
“Well, I often comfort them that Lady Black Tower might cast some attention on them, although the hope is slim… When I think about it, you are right!” Esda clenched his fists.
…Why does it feel like praying to the Black Tower is more difficult than praying to the Star God?
I feel a little ashamed.
“It’s decided! When the old men come over this time, I will discuss with them the matter of buying out and sponsoring the patents. Please continue to guide me, Mr. Kong!”
Putting down the electronic pen, Estelle had a better understanding of how to use “genius” to create value.
At the same time, she glanced at the terminal on the other side where the shopping software was running, and secretly put several gorgeous evening dresses into the shopping cart.
Under Kong’s various suggestions, her plan also changed, from intending to “borrow” Kong to wanting to “occupy” him…
31. Rich woman, hungry, ship ship!
Growing up in a high-pressure family environment, although Ester’s childhood was relatively not so pure, she was closer to the “truth” of this world than ordinary people.
The Interstellar Peace Company’s pursuit of the concept of protection has been distorted to a certain extent after it has grown to its current scale. It has changed from protecting bigger and more things, such as civilization… to a protection company, or something else. However, the Amber King does not object to them doing so, perhaps because it is indeed a derivative concept of protection and also protects civilization, or perhaps His attention has shifted elsewhere and He does not want to stay in one corner for a long time.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the current Interstellar Peace Corporation is an explosion machine driven by desire. As a result, Ester has seen the deepest and most shameless desires of mankind, which has made her somewhat numb.
The old monsters in the family all used the name of protection to do things to satisfy their desires. Estelle could understand their behavior as normal, but after seeing it too often, she could not help but feel disgusted.
She concluded that her desire was not for power, but for the starry sky. In order to get rid of the influence of her family, she had been looking for enough reasons and bargaining chips to allow her to be independent. The Black Tower gave her the first reason. Kong seemed to be able to help her further pursue her dreams. Therefore, she hoped to use Kong’s tiger skin to overcome the difficulties in front of her first.
First of all, he is a very useful genius.
The second one was a very lecherous guy. Judging from Ji Zi’s few words and the undisguised way his two female companions fought for his arms, a guy with such overly simple desires was very suitable for her to conquer – it was difficult for a beautiful girl to be unaware of her own beauty. Esta was confident that she could catch his eye, and she had some status bonuses, which might arouse his interest.
Next, he is single now… Even though he is so close to Eula and Holhaiya, he himself admits that he is single. According to the information given by Himeko, Kong will not get back together with a woman who is “over”, there has never been such a precedent.
“Alas, before I knew it, I had begun to use the old guys’ way of thinking to handle my interpersonal relationships…”
Seeing that the dress would be delivered in a day, after putting down the terminal, Estelle began to reflect on whether she had become a little mentally distorted due to the continuous high-pressure work recently.
Strangely enough, she wanted to occupy Kong. Besides the self-hypnosis to “increase her own bargaining chips”, there was another reason. That was that she wanted to know where the sense of disharmony in Kong came from.
…He had high requirements for the contract price, but in Esta’s opinion, it was not that he cared about money at all, but that he was looking for an excuse to help the space station. Asking for a little money would make the party being helped feel at ease…
It sounds ridiculous, but Esta’s expertise in social etiquette reminds her that Kong could be just like Heita, who doesn’t care about anything. He takes money in order to help, which is not the same as helping only after receiving money.
This made her somewhat curious about Kong’s logic. At the same time, the relationship between him and the Star Core Hunter was also very worthy of speculation… She needed to get closer to get the answer.
So I’m sorry, Ms. Eula, I must see this man’s true face! I might do something that will make you angry!
“Go forward and you’ll find the transfer staircase to the containment cabin.”
It was impossible for Esta to apologize to Eula in advance through the hands-free mode. Under Alan’s guidance, the train set arrived at the T-junction that Kong passed when he escaped yesterday without any obstruction.
“…When we attacked the containment chamber yesterday and cleaned out the Void Soldiers, this place wasn’t in such a mess yet.”
Facing the corridor that seemed to be tangled up in a nonsensical way like Inception, Alan seemed very confused. “I withdrew my team after confirming that there were no enemies in the regular activity area… At that time, everyone was really exhausted. If I had known earlier, I should have persisted a little longer and searched more…”
“…”
Kongye had a subtle look on his face. He didn’t expect that after he killed Doommon and just touched it for a short while, the space station would become like this.
His original intention was not to help too enthusiastically in order to avoid being morally blackmailed later, but now all the remaining problems are making his work more difficult.
“…This isn’t Brother Kong’s fault. It’s our fault for not recovering the artifact immediately…”
“Wait, you went to the front line to direct the cleanup work again yesterday?”
“……broken.”
These words must have been heard by Ester through Kong’s mouth, and Alan’s face froze instantly.
“You really don’t want to live.”
Sora patted Alan’s shoulders twice and bared his teeth.
“Now I can completely understand Estelle’s fear that something might happen to you. But it doesn’t matter. The advice I’m giving you will help you transform from a section chief who leads the charge to a commander who makes strategic plans, provided you study hard.”
“…Alan, after this operation, you must read books carefully! Don’t miss any of the books that Mr. Kong has chosen for you!” Ester’s helpless voice was like a death-taking spell, drilling into Alan’s ears through Kong’s terminal.
“Yes, miss.” Alan’s ugly face actually showed a feeling of grievance.
“…Yeah, and remember to check your private messages.”
Private letter?
Alan was stunned and took out his cell phone.
[Alan, you have a lot of contact with Mr. Kong. If you want to give Mr. Kong a decent and practical gift, what should you choose? ]
[I was planning to give Brother Kong a lunch box that I made myself. ]
[It’s very practical, but totally undignified! I want to give away items as a webmaster! Please give me some reliable suggestions! ]
Esta was a little mad. It wasn’t that she had no idea what to give, she just wanted to hear Alan’s analysis. After all, they were both boys.
[When I was chatting with Brother Kong before, he would occasionally talk to himself. ]
Alan thought about it very seriously and added his own understanding:
[I have reason to believe that before being imprisoned in that strange object, Brother Kong should have had experience commanding a hunting group on a ship. Maybe that ship was his own property. He kept talking about a battleship or something.]
【Battleship?】
[Yes, Miss, you can try starting from this aspect. Giving Brother Kong a ship model or something similar should resonate with him.]
[Okay, I have a rough idea, send me the shopping key. ]
[What do you want to buy?] Alan immediately became alert.
[Buy a ship model for your brother Kong. It’s not like you’re wasting money. Hurry up. ]
[Okay, wait for me to do the biometric authentication.]
Alan’s brows relaxed when he thought that the young lady was finally not spending money for her bottomless shopping needs this time.
When Esta saw the secret key was delivered, she was delighted and opened the official website of “Heston Industries” and immediately searched for the term “limited edition star destroyer”…
