People often say, "Be a little more calculated, a little less sincere—those who play their cards well tend to have better luck."
Feng Yi and Elvis believed they had already held back, played it clever enough, because only by doing so would the higher-ups start paying attention to the situation in Normandy and allocate Red Cloak slots. This was the minimum requirement.
Who could have expected an even greater play was at hand? After the previous battle, the upper echelon clearly understood the strength of the two.
A month later, they encountered enemy super-soldier Xia Mu again in the Bermuda Star system. This time, the higher-ups didn't even send any backup, issuing instead just a direct order for Feng Yi and Elvis to handle it—and even granted Normandy a special Red Cloak designation.
What the...? Who the hell would want to do that?! @#%%...
