Part III. Chimera

 

Chapter 76 Neo Galaxy Landing on the Earth (2)

 

A few weeks later, astronaut Moshe completed his mission and returned to the Earth with several fellow astronauts. And the Neo Galaxy also landed on the Earth.


 
A grand welcome party was held for Moshe on his return to Israel. The Air Force's highest medal was awarded to him. Shy-Rock, an influential retired general, attended the party. Shy-Rock greeted Moshe with his medal on his chest, and the retired general introduced him to a man standing next to him.

 

"As you may know, my son-in-law is in the same Air Force with you."

 

"General, of course I know. He is my senior."

 

The Elite shook hands with Moshe.

 

"Congratulations, Moshe. I've only fly in the air. What about space? You're now a hero not only for the Air Force but also for Israel and all Jews."

 

"Aren't you the savior of our motherland who bombed the nuclear reactor of the enemy Iran?"

 

After that, Moshe did not forget to add one phrase.

 

"Of course, this is an off-the-record story outside of the Air Force -------"

 

Elite only nodded lightly with a bitter smile.

 

Moshe instantly realized that the Elite was lifeless and flat in language. He remembered a gossip heard from his fellow pilots when he returned to his original workplace from the space station.

 

<Shy-Rock's son-in-law is a neurotic. He is prohibited to fly fighter jet. >
