Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 889 - 398: Annual Meeting (5-in-1)

Within the Su Family Castle.

Su Ming finished dinner and returned to his room.

Buzz~

At this moment, his wristband vibrated, and a message popped up.

Su Ming raised his wristband and glanced at it, seeing 120 billion Federation Coins credited to his account. He had to admit, Clan Leader Su Feng’s efficiency was indeed high.

Without any hesitation, he immediately transferred the funds to Xi Guang Laboratory.

Instantly, the money in his card reached the bottom, with only a bit more than 3.4 billion Federation Coins left.

Watching such a large sum of money being transferred out, Su Ming felt his heart bleeding.

Then a reply message popped up.

"Payment received, delivery time within one month."

Su Ming looked down at the message, feeling a bit better suddenly. Thankfully, he didn’t have to wait too long.

He exhaled deeply, then walked to the bathroom to wash up and take a bath.

...

A long while later.

Su Ming emerged from the bathroom wearing pajamas.

He lay on the bed, raised his wristband, opened the Star Cluster Forum to check the latest updates.

The entire Star Cluster Forum was still very desolate, with no particularly popular posts, and the highest-ranked ones were all old posts.

Even the posts about the three-school league had been brought up.

Just when Su Ming planned to ignore it, he suddenly thought of something and clicked on the three-school league post.

In the latest comments, he saw one message after another.

"Life is unbearable, the Fifteenth District has gone crazy. Yesterday, a bunch of lunatics under the pretense of protesting, went about destroying and looting, even wrecked my shop."

"The Seventh District isn’t any better; a few days ago, it was hit by a widespread mechanical crawler attack, leaving the entire power grid paralyzed, and it’s still not fixed. I’m relying on backup energy to go online."

"What’s that compared to this? I’m from Earth Flame Star·Donoman Base City, and here, out of nowhere, a bunch of fanatics appeared, clashing with the garrison. Their weapons are even better than the garrison’s."

"Don’t even mention it, our Mars has been experiencing severe unrest lately, with conflicts everywhere, resulting in a curfew being enforced. No one’s allowed on the streets after seven at night."

...

Su Ming, seeing these messages, felt his eyelids twitch and quickly scrolled down.

A long while later, Su Ming finished reading the latest comments, his expression constantly changing.

Various places across the Federation were experiencing unrest, but he noticed one issue.

All the troubled regions were within the bottom Sixteen Districts and other eight major planets, while the three cities remained completely unaffected, very peaceful.

However, precisely because of this, it was more troublesome.

As those regions were relatively uncontrollable and had weaker Federation forces.

But fortunately, he didn’t see anyone from the Thirteenth District leaving comments, that area should still be okay.

Still, Su Ming felt a bit uneasy, so he raised his wristband and called his mother.

Beep beep!

Soon the call connected, and Zhao Ning’s cheerful voice came through the wristband.

"Son, have you returned to Huoxing?"

"Yes, mother, how have you been recently?"

"We’re doing well, you don’t need to worry! It’s just that lately, there’s been a lot of arrests, and one big-mouthed employee at your father’s repair shop was taken away."

"Do you need my help?"

"No need, son, we’ll just pay a bit and settle it."

"Good to hear."

After hearing Zhao Ning say this, Su Ming felt at ease.

At this moment, his wristband vibrated suddenly, and a message popped up.

Su Ming glanced at it and told Zhao Ning.

"Mother, I have something here, I’ll call you back later."

"Alright, remember to wear more clothes, and no matter how busy you are, eat on time."

"Okay, I’m hanging up."

Su Ming then ended the call.

He opened the message, and Miss Olissa had sent the quotation list and agreement.

Su Ming immediately downloaded it, carefully reviewing the pharmaceutical quotes and agreement, while logging into the Star Cluster Forum to compare the prices of related pharmaceuticals.

After a while, Su Ming finished looking over the quote document.

Olissa’s prices overall were reasonable, not exactly very cheap, but sincere, 30% lower than the market price.

Su Ming thought for a while, then turned off his wristband, lying on the bed to rest.

....

Next morning.

After washing up, Su Ming raised his wristband and opened the communications group of the Thirteenth Legion, looking at the Legion Commander’s avatar, he took a subtle breath and sent a message to him.

"Legion Commander, are you available? I have something to report in person."

After sending the message, Su Ming was tense, patiently waiting.

About a minute later, a reply message popped up. freewebnoveℓ.com

"Third floor of the Council Tower."

"Alright, I’m heading over immediately."

Seeing the address, Su Ming was slightly surprised. Legion Commander was on the third floor of the Council Tower, isn’t that the place for reviewing military merits? But he still replied promptly.

Then Su Ming hurriedly left.

...

More than an hour later.

Su Ming drove to the bottom of the Council Tower.

He got out of the car, walked straight into the building, and entered the spacious lobby.

The lobby was full of busy staff, each wearing a tense expression, without any hint of a smile, making the atmosphere heavy.

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

"Su Ming."

Su Ming paused and turned his head, seeing Admiral Ferion walking over.

"General Ferion!"

Su Ming respectfully called.

"Su Ming! Didn’t expect to see you here, it’s been so long!"

Ferion said with a smile.

"General, didn’t we just meet not long ago?"

Su Ming replied with a smile to Ferion.

A subtle, undetectable change flickered in Ferion’s eyes, before he smiled and said.

"Did we? I don’t recall."
