Walk alone in the abyss

The Sherman Empire Military Intelligence Bureau is the largest intelligence organization in the Sherman Empire. It belongs to the Imperial Military Department. Its job is to monitor the army, and later developed to monitor all officials and departments related to the army.

The main leader of the Military Intelligence Bureau is the rank of lieutenant general, who is directly responsible to the top three commanders of the Imperial Army.

Under the framework of the Military Intelligence Bureau, the twenty-six deputy directors are at the rank of major general or brigadier general, with overlapping powers and duties, and a large number of departments, who jointly preside over the main work of this huge organization.

When it comes to the Imperial Military Intelligence Agency, it is inevitable to mention the Central Intelligence Agency of the new federation.

But the difference is that the Military Intelligence Bureau mainly supervises the interior of the empire, while the Federal Intelligence Service is mainly responsible for intelligence work outside the Federation, and the two are not comparable in themselves.

In the Imperial Military Department, the Military Intelligence Bureau is actually the fastest place to promote military rank.

An ordinary non-commissioned officer of noble origin with outstanding talents, within the Military Intelligence Bureau system, only needs to be rated as third-class military merit a few times, and has been actively participating in administrative work. Touch the rank of Colonel.

Lieutenant Colonel Atro's official career was originally this glorious trajectory.

With the help of his third uncle, the Baron of the Empire has worked diligently in the Military Intelligence Bureau for more than 20 years. He has reached the rank of lieutenant colonel and the chief of the International Court Section, and is stationed in the prosperous Cole Harbor International Court all year round. .

Although he already had a wife in the empire, he still developed more than a dozen office romances when he was working outside, and there was a cozy rest room in the resident office.

There is no way, the cultural atmosphere of Port Cole is incompatible with "gambling and drugs", and Lieutenant Colonel Attero is just doing as the Romans do.

but suddenly;

Yes, very suddenly, just when he was transferred back to China, entered a new position, and was about to continue to sprint to a higher power, bad news suddenly came.

There was a major mistake in a job he presided over before.

That damned white ghost is Captain Hunton!

It was Captain Hanton who was thrown into Cole Harbor Prison by him, and finally was hastily judged to have died in a prison riot!

Regret, Lieutenant Colonel Attero regretted it at the time.

Fortunately, Atero has a high-ranking third uncle.

When the investigation results of the Cole Harbor prison riot came out, the third uncle, who has been dealing with intelligence work all year round, keenly noticed something wrong with the intelligence, and immediately ordered Artero to investigate in detail.

That investigation didn't matter, Atro found a litany of problems.

There was actually a doctor on the Kigrove scientific research ship, but he was not brought back to the empire!

Atero spent some money, got some information from his own network, and found that the woman turned out to be a secret agent of the Guell League, and it was very likely that Captain Hanton was kidnapped.

If this incident is disclosed, Atro's glorious future will inevitably be left with a huge stain; the Imperial Army will not reuse any mediocre talent, not even the prince.

Atro panicked.

He is not stupid, of course he saw the problem, how could the intelligence department of the Guell Union spend so much effort to get rid of an ordinary low-level officer.

But it doesn't matter, he has three uncles.

Atero reported all the facts truthfully, and his third uncle made a decisive decision and used his authority to classify this incident as a category A incident, marking a large number of imperial confidential documents on the captain named Hanton.

Later, Atro heard that a lieutenant general of the empire drove a dreadnought to smash a certain battleship of the Guell Union.

He thought that everything would be settled here.

But he never expected that Hanton did not die, and returned as a white ghost a few years later!

The Cole Harbor prison incident appeared on the desks of a group of leaders of the Military Intelligence Bureau with an unstoppable trend.

The group of leaders almost swallowed Atero alive.

In their view, the Imperial Military Intelligence once abandoned the White Specter, which was the main reason why the White Specter was unwilling to directly return to the Imperial Army.

Originally, Atero's best ending was to be transferred to a position where there was no profit and no young female secretary, and he would be blamed for it in the future, and it would be fine to barely get along until retirement.

But it doesn't matter, he has three uncles.

Atro's third uncle won him a chance to make up for his mistakes.

Now, Attero is standing in the spaceport of this little-known imperial administrative star, wearing a straight dress with a neat mid-section, a white and beardless face with a smile that is almost stiff, and a transparent one in front of him. On the projection screen, there are two lines of big characters written on it.

Welcome Hero Hendon;

Welcome Captain Catherine.

Beside Attero, two young and invincible beautiful girls are wearing dresses and sneakers, holding bright flowers in their hands.

The entire spaceport is covered with plainclothes officers from the Military Intelligence Agency, and the security system is ten times more stringent than usual.

Even, just in case, Atero used a little relationship, so that only the merchant ship that arrived at the port in the last four hours was the one that Yang Ming and Catherine were on.

And this is just the preparation before the reception.

In the back, Atro has a string of surprises in store for Captain Hendon.

He had to become a friend of Captain Hunton and a staff member with the best relationship with the White Ghost in the Military Intelligence Bureau in order to keep everything he had.

'Thank you third uncle. '

Atro sighed inwardly.

And when he remembered that he had sat arrogantly in front of the white ghost, said those high-sounding words to him, and didn't even want to respond to his sincere eyes... Atro felt a little terrified.

This is a great killer, known as the strongest warrior in the empire, and it has been proved that the strength of the white ghost is higher than those super reformers controlled by the elders' house.

Here he comes!

In the aisle ahead, a group of passengers carried suitcases one after another, chatting and laughing in the simulated gravity zone.

"Every department is ready!"

Atro shouted at the collar, and the figures hiding everywhere immediately seemed to be facing the enemy.

In the passageway, Yang Ming, who was wearing a mask and peaked cap, was joking with Catherine, who was dressed similarly.

Catherine put her hands in the pockets of her windbreaker. She doesn't like women's handbags, so she wears light clothes wherever she goes, showing a heroic appearance.

"Why is the space station in your hometown so barren?"

"Small places are mostly like this," Yang Ming said calmly, "Do you know what is the reason for further restricting the population of the empire?"

"What?"

"The three elements, such as a super administrative star like Yaha Star, will have a siphon effect, attracting a large number of young people from generation to generation, and small places will lose young labor.

"As resources and space are limited in super administrative planets, low- and middle-income groups work hard to make ends meet, and the cost of raising children will become the biggest obstacle to their childbearing. Obviously, there are a huge population of seven or eight billion, but the population The growth rate has been negative year after year.

"Small places have space and resources, but because there are fewer young people and more middle-aged and elderly people, the growth rate is actually negative.

"The population of the empire has always fluctuated periodically. Even if a new administrative star is opened up and there are preferential policies, it will take at least a few hundred years of development to become a small part of the empire."

Catherine blinked.

Although she didn't ask this question, but...

He knows a lot.

"Let's go," Yang Ming walked out of the glass door and said with a smile, "We just gave them a surprise when we went back, but you promised me to play my girlfriend for the time being."

"Well," Catherine said indifferently, "I hope your parents will be happy."

"They will definitely," Yang Ming inexplicably felt a little nervous.

Hanton's family.

This is a special group that he has been unwilling to face, but now he has to face... Huh? Why are people still welcome?

"Captain Hunton!"

A middle-aged uncle who looked familiar in front of him raised his hands, made a gesture of hugging from the air, and shouted in that mellow baritone voice:

"Welcome, the hero who went out of this planet! You are the pride of this place!"

Snapped! Clap clap!

Seven or eight young men and women ran beside them, opened the portable fake fireworks in their hands, and shot out ribbons and petals.

The two girls each showed eight white teeth, ran forward quickly, and presented flowers to Yang Ming and Catherine.

Catherine took it calmly. She had experienced many such welcome ceremonies when she went to deal with some tasks before.

Yang Ming already recognized who this shiny middle-aged uncle was.

Cole Harbor, the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau, that lieutenant colonel who is full of imperial glory!

"Hahaha!" Atro stepped forward and tried to hug.

Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled, holding the flowers in his left hand, and stretched out his right hand proactively.

"Lieutenant Colonel, long time no see."

"Oh, you can remember me!" Atro naturally switched gestures, held Yang Ming's right hand tightly, and shook it vigorously, "Welcome, welcome back to visit relatives, great white ghost, dear Hendon! I sincerely apologize for my arrogance and arrogance, and I hope you understand that sometimes our work..."

"Okay, Lieutenant Colonel, I'm not someone who likes to care about everything. I'm a soldier of the empire, and I should obey orders."

Yang Ming said warmly:

"Hopefully my performance in Port Cole did not bring shame to the Empire.

"When the intelligence department of the Güell Alliance tried everything possible to catch me, three groups of people who claimed to be the chiefs of the military intelligence bureau appeared in front of me. Since I couldn't tell which one was an imperial soldier, I could only hide my biggest secret.

"A lot of things happened later, and I got a lot of opportunities. Maybe this is fate. It has already arranged everything, so I don't complain about it."

"Oh, you really!"

Atro was so moved that he almost wanted to give Yang Ming a big lip.

But fortunately, Yang Ming would not believe any expressions of this middle-aged oily person.

He was just showing kindness to MI.

"This way, please," Atro said sideways, "We have arranged everything for you to visit relatives, and I have prepared a few small surprises for you personally. Please come with me."

"This is Miss Catherine."

"Oh, I know, this is the famous Imperial Blade, Captain of the Super Transformer Team," Atro said with squinted smiles, greeted Catherine, and then continued to pull Yang Ming warmly.

The Military Intelligence Bureau has nothing to do with the elders' house.

At a glance, Yang Ming saw white ghost elements everywhere.

The insect-killing clips of the white ghost are played on the big screen, and various genuine peripherals of the white ghost are placed in the shop window;

In the vertical train falling from the space port to the surface, the youth choir who 'passed by' sang the achievements of the white ghost;

Along the way, Attero exhausted the social skills he had cultivated over the years to keep the atmosphere relaxed, cheerful and enthusiastic.

Once on the surface, however, things started to go off the rails.

City government officials from Hanton's hometown lined the road to welcome them. A group of enthusiastic and beautiful girls danced cheerful samba in the cold weather. Those white and slender waists made Yang Ming feel a little hot.

Walking down the red carpet, leaving autographs, unveiling the statue of the White Ghost, standing on the podium, and giving an immature speech to the group of wild-eyed young people below...

Yang Ming really had a hero's addiction to return home.

Originally, Atero and the local officials planned a parade around the city, but Yang Ming was worried that it would cause an accident, so he resolutely refused.

Before Hanton could go home, he was dragged to the best hotel in the area, where a table of delicacies from mountains and seas was set up.

The lieutenant colonel of the Military Intelligence Bureau accompanied, the local parents and garrison officers attended, the hottest entertainment star on the planet sang at the table, and a girl group composed of more than a dozen beautiful girls danced hotly.

The row of white ghosts is directly full.

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, all the officials and military officers took the initiative to leave under the hint of Atro.

Yang Ming, who drank some nerve inhibitors, was still very clear-headed.

If Atero was apologizing for what happened before, then Yang Ming had already forgiven this guy. After all, even if it were someone else, there was a high probability that he would make the same choice as Atero.

Atro has already started to wander, took Yang Ming's hand, and began to sigh:

"Brother Hanton, I'm sorry for you, why am I so confused, I..."

"There is no need to mention the past," Yang Ming said softly, "Every choice in the past has shaped me today, Lieutenant Colonel Atro, we are already friends, aren't we?"

"Yes Yes."

Catherine on the side rolled her eyes boredly, lifted her hair, and continued to attack the delicious food in front of her.

"Brother Hanton, in order to express my apology and make up for my mistakes back then, I have used countless relationships to prepare a few small surprises for you, brother, to help you vent your anger."

Little surprise?

Isn't this journey enough surprises?

Yang Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't make arrangements with great fanfare, I just wanted to go home quietly."

"What kind of fanfare is this, assistant! Bring in gifts No. 1 and No. 2 first!"

Atro yelled, and immediately two plainclothes ran out of the door.

This little surprise was quite normal. The Military Intelligence Bureau gave Yang Ming a hover car of the luxury brand of Empire, and a villa with the highest value in the local area for Hanton's parents to live in.

Han Dun's parents are actually businessmen with small fortunes, and Yang Ming didn't feel anything wrong with this.

Atro rolled up his sleeves, and shouted angrily to the outside: "Bring gift No. 3!"

The door of the guest room opened, two military police opened the way, and a young woman with a haggard look appeared in front of Yang Ming.

Yang Ming was startled.

Uh, Hanton's No. 2 mistress, the navigator who served on Kigrove's experimental ship, was the girl who sold him directly in front of the Human Council.

"She betrayed you, Brother Hanton," Atro said in a low voice. "The worst thing MIA can tolerate is betrayal. How you want to punish her is up to me."

Catherine was eating happily, and took a few leisurely glances at this girl, thinking that this was Yang Ming's private matter, and she didn't care about it.

"this……"

"Don't, don't kill me, Hanton!"

The second mistress burst into tears on the spot:

"Look at our past relationship, don't kill me, Hanton! We have very happy memories. I was under pressure to identify you as the third officer on the ship! You know, I'm just timid... …we had so many good nights getting to know each other's bodies..."

Catherine was obviously choked, she kept her head down and coughed non-stop.
