Colonel, is it really fragrant today?

The three champions of last year's single and double races in the Airship Contest made meritorious service in their first battle. This topic quickly became the hottest topic on the main planet. Many people still remember the almost perfect appearance of Dane and Vivian in the double race. The champion of the competition, Theodore, has not been accepted after the competition. Most people think that he can win the championship because he is flattering. Fortunately, Theodore is heartless and doesn't take these rumors seriously at all, but this After this incident, the voice of doubt disappeared in an instant, and people lamented the fairness and justice of the Airship Contest, which selected excellent combatants for the military in advance.

The military department attached great importance to this matter. The marshal got the news at the first time, and after learning of the victory, he decided to meet the two interns who had not yet graduated.

Dane and Theodore returned to the voyage smoothly. As soon as they came out of the transport ship's cabin, they were separated for investigation. After each described the whole process, they were released, and then they were told that the marshal wanted to see them. Dane He and Theodore looked at each other, nodded silently, and followed the person who came.

In the past, Theodore would have jumped up excitedly knowing that he was going to see the marshal, but now he has just experienced the edge of life and death, and almost lost his life, and he doesn't have the emotion to be excited.

Along the way, the lieutenant who sent the two to see the Marshal kept praising Dane and Theodore for their on-the-spot reactions: "This kind of task of transporting supplies is simple and boring, and often interns doze off after setting the route. , this time, if you hadn't discovered the opponent's flaw for a second or two, we would have had no time to fight back, and most of the supplies on the front line would have been lost, and I thought you would be martyred, but in the end you escaped successfully, I am so sorry I admire the two of you, not to mention you interns in such an emergency, even a combatant who has been on the front line for a year can hardly escape unscathed, no wonder the marshal wants to see you in person."

The other party chattered a lot, Dane lowered his head and couldn't even make a perfunctory expression, Theodore forced a smile at the other party: "Thank you."

The other party blushed, scratched his head, and realized that the timing of his speech was not right, so he closed his mouth tactfully along the way, and went to rest with Dane and Theodore with their eyes closed.

The meeting process was not long. The marshal just asked the two of them a few questions and it was over. This was the first time Dane saw the supreme commander of the star group, but Dane obviously felt that when the marshal saw him, his eyes flashed. There was a change, and then quickly returned to the original state: "You are Yevel Borghez, the child adopted by Heinrich?"

Dane nodded; "I am."

At the end of the meeting, the two got up to leave, and the marshal stopped Dane, "Would you like to stay by my side to do something?"

This sentence successfully caused the two to look up together. Dane stared into the marshal's eyes in surprise, and asked in disbelief, "Are you asking me to be your executive officer?"

The marshal nodded with a smile: "Don't you want to?"

Dane thought for a moment and then refused: "It's a great honor for me to be appreciated by you, but I want to be an aircraft combatant more than an executive officer." Dane said and glanced at Theodore, Continued: "If you want to choose an executive officer, Theodore is a very suitable candidate."

When his name was mentioned suddenly, Theodore was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at the marshal full of expectations. It was his dream to become the marshal's executive officer, and now he was so close to his dream, even if he had just escaped from the edge of life and death, he could not conceal his excitement .

The marshal seemed helpless, smiled tolerantly, and sighed: "Yeweier, you not only rejected me, but also recommended other people to me, but I will consider your proposal." After finishing speaking, he did not stay. The next two people.

On the way back, Theodore regained his previous temper, grabbed Dane's arm and shook it, and said anxiously: "Do you think the Marshal will really consider me? Did the Marshal just mean that he would think about it? Did the Marshal really think about me?" Will you let me be his executive?"

Dane didn't answer, and didn't need to answer at all, letting Theodore talk.

Theodore was incoherent for a while before remembering that the marshal had sent an invitation to Dane first, and suddenly felt flushed, and asked falteringly: "Is it because I said before that you want to be an executive officer that you rejected the marshal? ? You don't have to refuse the Marshal's invitation because of me, I can see that the Marshal really wants you to take the post, I can apply again later, anyway, the Marshal has more than one executive officer."

Dane had heard similar words in the Airship Contest a year ago, and now he felt a little familiar, and he explained the same thing, Dane said: "I just said the reason, if I really want to do the execution It is impossible to refuse the position of official because of you."

Theodore stared at Dane for two seconds, knowing that his friend was not lying, he sincerely thanked him, and said with emotion: "But I really envy you, the marshal favored you as soon as we entered, if I could have Half of your talent is fine."

"I don't think you are worse than me. In the crisis situation just now, your reaction and manipulation were at a first-class level. In terms of cooperation, I once thought that the person sitting next to me was Vivienne." Dane said this plainly. In fact, he was surprised by Theodore's previous operations, because Theodore had never displayed such a high level of combat skills before, but it is not surprising that the sudden outbreak of the desire to survive is on the front line of life and death.

"Really!" Theodore's eyes lit up after being recognized by his friends, and he said excitedly, "Actually, I also think that I played very well just now. , but the happiest thing is that we are all still alive."

One day later, Theodore was officially appointed by the Marshal. After the internship period, Theodore officially graduated from the Central Academy, and he could become the executive officer of the Marshal.

Dane congratulated Theodore as expected, but after returning home that day, Osborn called into the study: "I heard that the position of executive officer was originally yours, and you rejected the marshal?"

"Yes." Dane nodded.

The indifferent attitude successfully aroused Osborn's anger, and he yelled at Dane: "Explain the reason!"

Dane repeated the same words: "The position of Marshal Executive Officer is not what I expected, I want to be an aircraft combatant."

"This is not a child's play!" Osborne stood up from his chair and roared, "Put away your attitude in the Fitzgerald family, this is not a place for you to be willful, and the Borghez family does not allow any A person who regards family honor as nothing!"

Dane was silent and did not speak, neither agreeing nor refusing, Osborne ordered someone to put Dane in a confinement room in a rage. In this technologically advanced future, confinement rooms still exist, Dane He didn't resist coldly, but he just stayed inside for one night, so he wouldn't make a scene because of this level of punishment.

A week later, the investigation of the entire enemy raid was clear. Dane, Theodore, and Vivienne had all been promoted to varying degrees. Dane and Theodore became the second case in the Central Academy who were awarded military ranks without graduation. People, the first case was Heinrich back then.

"So, what is the final result of this investigation?" The military department, the three of them had dinner at the same table, and Theodore asked Vivienne about the news. It is no need to guess that this incident is a traitor in the empire, and Vivienne Wei An happened to be in the Spy Investigation Department, so she naturally wanted to inquire.

Vivienne answered him: "I don't know. I didn't participate in the subsequent investigation of this matter. The information is classified as a first-level confidentiality. Neither you nor I have privileges. If you want to know, just guess."

Theodore wailed in frustration. He still wanted to know who caused him and Dane to almost die, but it was mainly curiosity.

Dane glanced at Theodore, and stopped his wailing, "It's useless even if you know, the other party has probably been executed in secret, don't you want to ask the other party why he chose that time to do it? Raid?"

After hearing this, Theodore thought about it for a while, so he continued to eat unhappily. During the period, the two learned from Vivian that because of this incident, Dane and Theodore received the attention of the military department. Afterwards, there may be senior military officers who will conduct one-on-one training for the two of them. Dane nodded and listened to it, not paying attention at all.

After lunch, Dane met Heinrich on the way back to the department. Theodore glanced at the two of them and found an excuse to run away, leaving Dane alone to face this seemingly unfriendly Lieutenant General Fitzgerald.

Dane was taken by Heinrich to his lounge in the military headquarters. This was the first time Dane saw Heinrich in the military headquarters. The style of the other party's lounge was very similar to that of Fitzgerald's main house. It was so similar that Dane had the illusion of going back, but this illusion was broken by the other party after only a second.

"Have you met the Marshal?" Heinrich stood opposite Dane, and his calm tone made this sentence not sound like a question.

Dane chuckled lightly: "You came to me just to ask this?"

Heinrich didn't answer his words, and looked at Dane with golden pupils, with a hint of color that made people sink.

Dane tried to dispel the irrationality in his head, but when he was unsuccessful, he simply forgot it, and replied with a touch of anger: "I saw the marshal on the day of the accident, and it is too late for the lieutenant general to ask now."

Heinrich ignored the sarcasm in Dane's words: "What did the Marshal say to you?"

Dane didn't know Heinrich's purpose for asking this question. He only thought that he was looking for information, so he explained it succinctly: "It was just a simple question. Afterwards, the Marshal wanted me to be an executive officer. After being rejected, he chose me. Theodore."

Heinrich's face changed slightly after hearing Dane's answer, but he didn't explain, but let Dane leave his lounge directly.
