The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 82 Dining Hall
When Jiang Hui arrived at the canteen, it was just before dawn, as if the night had just ended. It should be the time when people are getting up.

When she arrived, the cafeteria was open, but there was no one at the entrance, and the machines downstairs didn't seem to be turned on.

Jiang Hui froze for a moment; she seemed to have made a basic mistake. She vaguely remembered that the freshman handbook said the food service robot on the first floor of the school usually started at 7:00 AM and shut down at 10:00 PM, for about ten hours of maintenance.

She arrived too early. It was just past six o'clock, and even the robots hadn't started working yet. What was she going to eat here, air? Or...? Jiang Hui's gaze fell on the 24-hour fast food vending machine outside the cafeteria.

Jiang Hui almost couldn't help but swear. Seriously? She got up so early just to have a hot drink?!
"What are you doing?" someone asked in a deep voice behind her.

Again—

When Jiang Hui turned around, she was right in front of the "Uncle Dan" she had met yesterday, and... a small group of people behind him.

"I'll just have breakfast," Jiang Hui replied.

"Then why aren't you going up? What are you standing here for? You're blocking the way and not letting anyone pass. Hurry up." He glanced at Jiang Hui, took a few steps, and then turned to look at someone else.

Jiang Hui was initially hesitant, looking at the few men who appeared to be officers lagging behind. Seeing that they weren't moving, she didn't dare to follow either. But having received the message, she understood and could only catch up in a few steps.

She followed Stark at a distance, only daring to walk close to the wall, seemingly hesitant to speak.

But Stark had already seen through her nature and knew that she was just observing and that she might not be as weak as she appeared. It was better to be direct with her, so he said, "You got up a bit early."

Before Jiang Hui could say anything, the other person added, "I see from your file that you live in a single dormitory, which is quite far from the teaching area. There will be plenty of training to do later, so don't push yourself too hard."

It's all because of you! Jiang Hui thought to herself.

She didn't want to be kicked out of the combat individual department for being late. Her dormitory was so far from the teaching area, and if something happened, she would have nowhere to turn for help. She might as well get up early and rush to breakfast—anyway, Jiang Hui hardly ever slept in real life anyway.

But she dared not say that to Stark, only saying that she had gone to bed early last night and had rested well, so she woke up early today.

The other person seemed to have really observed her expression quite carefully. To be honest, it wasn't a pleasant feeling to be intensely scrutinized by such hawk-like eyes.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to actually believe it in the end, and even nodded and said: "You should indeed rest well during military training. This is a good opportunity for you to focus on improving your abilities. You can put other miscellaneous things aside. Just train and rest well for this month and try your best to improve your physical fitness to the average level of a qualified individual combat soldier."

Oh dear, she was speechless at the other person's seriousness. Jiang Hui had really just made up an excuse on the spot.

Judging from what the other person said, they actually intended to train her properly. Uh... okay, they did tell her in advance, and Jiang Hui agreed at the time.

Now there's a vague connection, though we're not really close, but at least we have this kind of relationship.

Even though Jiang Hui didn't really want to deal with the rather complicated interpersonal relationships left over from the original body, she couldn't help but feel that she had inherited this body and would have to deal with it sooner or later as she walked through the world; she couldn't escape it.

Although Jiang Hui still has no way to confirm the authenticity of Tang Stark within the Jiang family's network of relationships, the timing, name, certain characteristics, and relationships all roughly match up. As for the rest, only time will tell.

For the time being, Jiang Hui has not found anything about the original owner that others could scheme against.

The other party is a high-ranking figure in the military, and seems to value the original owner quite a bit... Given Jiang Hui's current situation, it's best to follow their arrangements. Jiang Hui will just have to become another Uncle Tang.

Therefore, she could only nod in agreement to the other party's arrangement.

Stark was clearly pleased with her pragmatism and suddenly said to Jiang Hui, "You've arrived. There's a window for serving food on the third floor. Although the food isn't very good, it's much more nutritious than the fast food on the first floor."

Jiang Hui walked to the entrance of the third floor. There were indeed some voices inside, indicating that quite a few people were eating.

Then he watched as Stark and the small group of unfamiliar officers behind him walked up to the fourth floor.

It turns out that the class teacher and the others also eat in the school cafeteria, which must be the staff cafeteria or something like that. She had thought that these people would have their own dedicated cafeteria.

As expected, the military's style is all about speed and convenience, without so many cumbersome and complicated procedures.

Watching the group of neatly dressed instructors march upstairs in unison, their presence made the narrow, dimly lit canteen corridor seem quite luminous. Jiang Hui suddenly felt a sense of disorientation, as if her fantasy and reality had been shattered.

From a distance, she could hear people seemingly talking about her.

"Is that your student, Captain?"

"newborn?"

"They got up way too early? For their first time in military training, they're doing this early. They seem to have good potential."

"Captain, you're always so serious when you teach. If you weren't there, you'd think you were teaching your own nephews and nieces. I'm not that meticulous. Those brats and silly girls are already so arrogant on their first day of training. If I don't teach them a lesson, they'll be riding on my head tomorrow."

"But this child seems quite well-behaved. I appreciate good kids like her who know how to read the room. If you ever become dissatisfied with her, Captain, just send her to my side. I will definitely teach her a good lesson."

"What are you thinking? He's obviously a good prospect, and you're trying to snatch him away from the captain."

……

I heard you all! Can't you all keep your voices down? It's so embarrassing if the person involved hears this... Jiang Hui walked halfway into the stairwell entrance, feeling a little embarrassed.

So she quickened her pace and hurried away from this troublesome place to avoid running into any acquaintances.

This was Jiang Hui's first time eating on the third floor; she had always picked up her food from the fast food window on the first floor. Downstairs, the ordering system was automated; she simply selected a set meal on the screen, which was convenient and quick.

I heard that the second and third floors are for manual ordering, and the second floor is known for its expensive set meals, which are only chosen by students from wealthy families.

The third floor offers nutritious meals, which are much more expensive than the machine-made meals on the first floor, and the taste is also very poor. However, they are quite nutritious, so they are quite popular among the senior students.

Jiang Hui had never been to the second or third floor before, and she never expected to come here in this way today.
