Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station-Chapter 497 - 166 Handling_4

After all, the idea of trading Psychic’s Enlightenment Nerves just seemed a bit odd to Chen Ming, and extracting the Enlightenment Nerves would most likely lead to the death of the Psychic.

Chen Ming didn’t mind killing, but killing in this way was something he just couldn’t accept.

After all, he was not Dusk, unable to think about things with absolute rationality for his own benefit.

Just like when he destroyed that batch of dust needles from the smuggling fleet.

He certainly knew how much money he could earn if he sold them.

But the consequences of doing so were something he didn’t want to bear.

Now it was the same; he couldn’t do such things to his kind.

If Dusk had the Enlightenment Nerve, Chen Ming would have taken it without hesitation, but he had to seriously consider doing it to a person.

So Chen Ming still hadn’t made up his mind, and asked the boss if he intended to take over.

However, the boss didn’t need it either.

Although there was indeed a conflict between him and Yan Xiong, it basically originated because of Chen Ming, and now it ended because of him.

He didn’t need to care too much about Yan Xiong.

But after understanding Chen Ming’s dilemma, the boss told him about Zuo Jing.

The keywords were just a few: cult, kidnapping and abduction, terrorist attacks on civilian facilities, smuggling, and often talking about heart-to-heart matters with people.

And he explicitly pointed out the fact that Yan Xiong was collaborating with Zuo Jing.

Then Chen Ming’s psychological pressure was all gone.

He didn’t care at all how many times this kind of person died.

Of course, he still didn’t want to do such things as extracting human Enlightenment Nerves.

However, the boss also agreed to help ask people who had a grudge against Yan Xiong; maybe someone would be interested?

If no one was interested, then Chen Ming might as well keep it.

A Psychic always has his uses.

And if Chen Ming tried to replace all the metal from the unconscious Yan Xiong with metal materials he had controlled.

Perhaps he could get a Psychic completely under his control?

The boss’s words also reminded Chen Ming of this possibility.

This was much more acceptable to him than extracting Enlightenment Nerves from people.

However, what to do specifically later still needed to be decided according to the specific situation.

While Chen Ming and the boss were discussing matters about Psychics.

The Sinda Corporation headquarters had also received the news from their Pirate Space Station.

A board meeting was quickly organized.

This was a crucial meeting, as the corporation needed to adjust its overall strategic direction.

Therefore, all board members had to be present.

But when the time for the meeting started, one seat at the table was still empty.

The chairman looked around and said, "Let’s wait for him; he is the most important one at this meeting."

Since it was an online meeting, the others didn’t know what the absent board member was doing.

At that moment, the missing board member was in his division’s office, on the phone with someone, sounding furious.

"I just gave him an easy position where he could earn a lot casually, and look what crap he’s done! Huh! Look at it!"

A middle-aged male voice on the other end of the call said: "That’s just how your brother-in-law is. Look after him a bit."

"Have I not looked after him many times before? Don’t be greedy. Sitting in that position, money will come your way. Didn’t I tell you that?"

"What did he do? Embezzled the company’s assets! Colluded with outsiders! Got involved with Zuo Jing! Which of these things is what a sane person would do?"

"But he didn’t know it was Zuo Jing."

"Does Zuo Jing have ’Zuo Jing’ written on his face to tell you? No brains, huh? Was that money for him to take?"

"But mainly it’s because of that Chen Ming..." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Isn’t offending a Psychic just insane? Did the company declare him dead? Has his file been thrown out?"

"Why are his supplies and his spaceship left untouched? Who gave you the guts to touch them? Huh?"

"If he wants to die, just go and die alone! Stop dragging the company! Dragging me!

"The company might get investigated by the government because of this idiot! Do you know how much we might lose?"

The person on the other end meekly replied, "But that is just a branch company, right? What are you worried about?"

"You!"

The board member laughed angrily, his whole body shaking uncontrollably in response.

"I have to get scolded by the chairman at the meeting, and then come back to hear you all nag..."

He took a deep breath but couldn’t calm himself, so he pounded his desk forcefully and said, "I really fucking am..."

But suddenly, the board member calmed down and said, "Forget it."

He took a resignation letter and a share transfer agreement from his desk drawer.

"I quit."

"Huh? You can’t..."

"Get lost."

With that single word, he ended the call.

He turned off all devices that could contact him, and then joined the company’s meeting system.

When his projection appeared at the corporate headquarters, he placed the report on the desk and said, "Here is my resignation letter..."
