Captain Long was helped into a space capsule, and the bespectacled man closed the door and poured Captain Long a glass of water.
"Old Dragon, don't be mad. The brothers from back then, some died, some went missing, there aren't many left. Tian is one of them, and he's already harboring resentment. Don't be too angry."
Captain Long chuckled bitterly, "What do I have to be angry about? This kid, he's doing this so that I won't be embarrassed and so that old man won't give me a hard time. Hmph, he thinks he can fool me with these little tricks. I've said it before, among the people back then, many were capable, but only this kid had brains. If he hadn't been sent on that mission, he'd probably be wearing a higher rank than you or I by now."
"As long as you understand, there's no point in getting angry with those outsiders. If the higher-ups don't value us, there's nothing we can do. Better just stay put and be at peace."
