"What's the reason?"
Su Ming asked curiously.
"In recent years, the Council's funds have been very tight, and they're really stingy with allocations. Even the funding for the Cosmic Army Headquarters is limited, and they're struggling over there."
Okens said with a sigh.
Upon hearing this, Su Ming gave Okens a peculiar look, realizing that, after all this, the issue was actually with the Council.
Not enough money, how could Alekde not try to find his own solution?
As for the Council's funding being tight, Su Ming didn't believe it at all; they probably pocketed the funds.
Seeing Su Ming looking at him with a strange expression, Okens scowled and said immediately.
"Why are you looking at me like that? You don't suspect us of withholding funds, do you?"
"No."
Su Ming replied awkwardly.
"Seriously, I'm not joking with you; we really haven't held back any money from the Military Department. It's just the Council's funds—I don't know where they've gone."
