113 Blank Space

All 12 members of the unit dealt with the incoming mission in their own unique ways. Ying and Ebon were happily preparing their guns and ammos, pumped for a new mission; Zhang Heng was worried sick, barely managing a bite of his dinner; Chou Yue spent the whole night talking with Ren Tao; Yao Yuan threw himself into administrative work until 10 PM and had a dreamless sleep until 8:30 AM the next morning.

Before 9 AM, all 12 of them gathered at the shuttle hangar, the location where their equipment and spacesuits stood at the ready. As the clock struck 9, they would collectively walk into the shuttle to begin Operation Leap.

"Do you feel any danger now?" Ren Tao suddenly whispered to Chou Yue.

Chou Yue fired back sullenly. "What? You refused to talk to me yesterday night but now suddenly you’re willing to do so?"

Ren Tao smiled brightly. "That’s because we’re boarding. Now is the time you should be able to tell whether there is any danger."
