"But I tell you, you are nothing."

"With just one word, I can strip you of your suit and your skin. Do you know why?"

"Because I wear these clothes and have this rank, I earned them by killing countless Letchers and countless villains like you. Do you still think that the hardships of fighting on the front lines can't compare to your carefree logistics life?"

Lison was speechless and couldn't even say a word to defend herself.

Because if she dared to move in front of him, Green would kill her without hesitation.

He didn't care about nepotism or family connections. He'd already messed with enough people, so what would one more do? Ultimately, the Ark would still rely on him for ground combat.

"You have no defence to this charge?"

"Very good. Keeping silent and pretending to be dead is indeed a good way to deal with it. The laws of Ark are relatively more favorable to women. Plus, you are a government employee, so they will probably give you a lenient sentence in the end."

"but..."

"Do you think I'll let you live so comfortably?"

"I'm telling you, Lison, no matter what, I'm going to transfer you to a commanding position so you can experience ground combat." Green said fiercely, his words filled with conviction, making everyone present blush. "Don't you think logistics is difficult? Well, I'll give you something easier. I'm sure you'll be happy to see it happen, right?"

"Let me be the commander...?"

"No, no, no, don't do that! I'm just a weak woman, how can I beat Letcher?"

"So, everyone, listen to me, the supply issue was just an accident. There was a mistake during the transportation. I, we will immediately reissue this month's synthetic meat to everyone!" Lison was really scared this time.

As we all know, there is only one job with the highest mortality rate on the Ark, and that is the commander of the Ark.

According to statistics from the central government, the death rate of commanders leading ground combat for the first time is as high as 60%. Even for commanders who have led a team for more than a month, the casualty rate is far beyond others' imagination.

Even though Lison said that working in logistics is also very tiring compared to the front line.

But she knew very well in her heart that how could a "weak girl" like her do such dirty and tiring work that could kill people, such as filling lines on the ground?

"Officer Polly, please call the police officers over to take this woman named Lison away for investigation."

"Also, the rest of your office staff, I don't care what method you use, restore the supply of synthetic meat right now. Don't ask me how, I just have one word."

"I don't care what methods you use, immediately deliver all the supplies we deserve to every commander and every Nikki. If a piece of meat is missing, none of you will escape."

Green slammed the table heavily and said something harsh.

Although he knew that he looked like an unforgivable villain who abused his power to oppress others, in a place like the Ark, if he wanted to protect the kindness in his heart, he had to be more evil than the villains.

Only drastic measures can deter these villains and prevent them from engaging in corruption and embezzlement.

"Yes, it is!"

"Got it, go get all the supplies!"

After a period of confusion.

The atmosphere in the office finally returned to normal.

The commanders received the supplies in an orderly manner. Occasionally, a newcomer who had just come back from the battlefield would bow and salute Green who was counting the supplies next to him.

"senior!"

"You're so amazing! You're my idol!"

"Although I just joined the army yesterday, I also want to become a legendary commander like you! So, senior! Do you have any advice you can teach me? I will definitely keep it in mind!" A teenage boy who was not even a grown-up ran over and suddenly bent down deeply to Green. He looked so excited that he even wanted to kneel down, which made Green shake his head.

"Newbie, remember this: admiration is the furthest thing from understanding." Green reached out and gently patted the new recruit's shoulders twice. "Don't treat me like an idol. What you need to do now is not worship, but survive."

"On the ground, I suggest you build a good relationship with Nikki, don't bring those stereotypes taught to you in the military into the war, and try to survive."

"And in the Ark, you'd better try to integrate into a certain group and avoid being bullied by those veterans, otherwise your life may be very difficult."

"In short, I have only one thing to say to you: think about survival first, then talk about dreams."

"Okay! I'll definitely keep this in mind!"

The young boy straightened his military cap, saluted Green again, and then hurried out with the box of supplies that belonged to him.

Green looked at his back as he left happily and couldn't help but sigh.

Another innocent boy who was brainwashed by Ark, full of honor and hope, and wanted to sacrifice himself for his ideals.

If he still acted so recklessly and ignored Green's advice, his end would probably be to be hanging in obscurity on some barbed wire, bleeding, lamenting that he should not have come to the ground to fight Letcher, and finally died with hatred in his heart.

"I'm not a god, I can't save everyone."

"ha..."

"But one day, we will."

Green muttered to himself as he tied the cargo to the transport drone. After determining the destination, he also rubbed Polly's fluffy head.

"Oh, Commander, now is not the time to pat my head. I'm still investigating the communication records of this logistics staff member named Lison!" Thanks to Green, Polly the puppy who just got off work now has to work overtime again.

"I'm sorry, Polly. It's really my fault for making you work overtime. Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to a meal at the restaurant later."

"Hey, it's nothing, Commander. I've long been accustomed to working overtime. But if it's a treat, I'll accept!" Polly's eyes lit up, and she rubbed her head and laughed innocently. "Commander, where are we going to eat later?"

"How about the Song Bolun beef buffet?"

Green mentioned the name of a high-end restaurant. Although the restaurant was expensive, it provided unlimited synthetic beef and various barbecues every day.

When Polly heard the name of the restaurant, she nearly jumped up. "Commander, that restaurant is so expensive! I heard the entrance fee alone is 88!"

"It's okay. Although I'm not very rich, I can still treat you to a meal," said Green.

"Well, that won't do, Commander. Let's go somewhere cheaper to eat. I happen to know a really good restaurant! Their tonkotsu ramen is absolutely delicious!"

"Okay, then it's up to you."

In order to confirm Lison's smuggling guilt, Green stopped and waited for a while until Polly dug out all her communication records.

have to say.

Looking across the Ark, if you were to find a Nikki who was emotionally stable, highly capable, and warm and cheerful, it would have to be Officer Polly. While she served as a Nikki, her dedication, professional investigation skills, and impressive record were enough to suggest that if she were human, she'd already be the Chief of Police.

It only took a few minutes for Polly to uncover Lison's crime of withholding supplies.

"Found it, Commander!"

"This woman named Lison did indeed withhold a batch of high-quality synthetic meat and then sold it on the dark web."

"Darknet?"

"Yes, the dark web." Polly explained as she typed on the keyboard, "Commander, even in a place like the Ark, there are underground networks that the central government cannot regulate."

"The so-called dark web is an underground network used to sell contraband, smuggled goods, and many other illegal items. Those smugglers not only pick up everything, but also sell it. You can even buy a half-dead Nikki on that website, although I have no idea where they picked it up from."

"Things sold on the dark web are difficult to track, but fortunately, Lison is not a cautious person. She left a lot of clues. I can probably find out the whereabouts of that batch of synthetic meat materials based on this information." Polly narrowed her eyes, thought for a while, and began to type code again, using the police station's tracking software to inquire about the transaction destination of synthetic meat.

After about a few minutes.

Polly looked at a coordinate that popped up on the computer screen and shook her head at Green.

"Commander, the results are out."

"Lison smuggled goods, deceived her superiors, and sold supplies that should have belonged to the Commander and Nikki to people in the Outer Zone. As an employee of the central government, she has violated multiple constitutional provisions. We will bring her to court in approximately two months. Any prosecution and punishment of central government personnel will ultimately be submitted to the Ark's AI for its opinion. As her accuser, you can provide some subjective suggestions, which the AI will use to determine the final punishment."

"Well, as expected of Officer Polly, you always do things efficiently and effectively." Green stroked Polly's fluffy hair again and said with a smile.

"Hey, that's nothing. I just did what I had to do!" Polly smiled innocently and continued, "Oh, by the way, as for the buyer, since they're from the Outer Rim, there's basically nothing we can do."

"The Ark police can't go to the Outer Rim to handle cases."

"If we went there in uniform to arrest people, it would have caused riots and protests, which has happened many times before."

"Anyway, Commander, Lison's case will have to stay here for now."

"It's okay, I understand." Green nodded. He wouldn't make things difficult for Polly. "Now that the case is over, let's go have dinner. It's my treat."

"Okay! Eat, eat!"

"Let's go quickly, Commander. I've been busy all day and my stomach is growling with hunger."

.......

A few minutes later.

In a small noodle shop on the roadside.

Green and Polly sat together and enjoyed the steaming ramen.

“Swish! The ramen at this restaurant is really delicious!”

"Huh~ It's so nice to be able to have a hot meal every day when I get home from get off work, Commander."

In the steamy noodle shop.

Polly was probably really hungry. As soon as Green picked up his chopsticks, she had already slurped up a big bowl of noodles, her mouth full of soup and chili oil.

Because her fluffy hair was thick and long, a lot of oil stains got on her hair, but Polly herself was completely unaware of it.

"Polly, there's soup in your hair."

"Let me wipe it for you."

Green took out a few wet wipes and carefully wiped her oil-stained hair.

"Ah, Commander!"

"You don't have to wipe it for me, I can do it myself!"

"It's okay, it's just a little effort."

Polly blushed.

The white-haired puppy doesn't allow everyone to touch her head.

After all, hair is considered a puppy’s forbidden area for Polly.

Only people she likes or her good friends can touch it.

"commander."

"Thank you for helping me wipe my hair!" Polly blushed as she thanked him after the oil stains on her hair were almost gone. "It still feels a little sticky, but it's much better than before."

"It's just a little effort."

"Polly's hair is indeed very soft, though. Does she take good care of it?"

"Hehe, of course." Polly stroked her soft but slightly frizzy long white hair. "I spend a while every day styling my hair, but for some reason, it always ends up frizzy, and I'm also experiencing severe hair loss. Commander, is it because I was born with curly hair that's why it's like this?"

"Well..."

Green picked up the cup and silently covered his face.

No.

Polly, the reason your hair is frizzy and falling out is probably not because you are naturally curly.

It's because the Ark's scientists put some puppy genes into your body.

but.

It would be better not to tell Polly about this secret that only Ingrid and Green knew.

Chapter 4000 Nikki's Children's Day ()

"By the way, Commander, do you know what day tomorrow is?"

"I know, it's Children's Day in the Ark, right?"

"Yes, there will definitely be a lot more children running around on the streets tomorrow. Huh... I will probably have to work overtime until 10 o'clock tomorrow night. As a police officer, I don't have any time for vacation." Polly yawned, and she looked so sleepy that she looked like a lazy puppy.

"Polly, thank you for your hard work."

"By the way, it's a holiday, so I'll give you a gift."

Green took out his waist bag and handed over a stuffed toy.

Polly took the plush doll, her eyes lighting up. "Wow! Thank you, Commander! I remember this is a limited edition plush doll customized with your appearance, right? It's very expensive, selling for 10 credits each on the market. Can I really accept this gift?"

"of course."

"Just think of it as a reward for Polly's hard work."

"Wow, thank you, Commander. I'm so happy! Boss, two more glasses of freshly squeezed juice, both on me!"

"Commander, let's drink!"
