Star Wars: The Silver Pledge
Chapter 111
On the [Giant Camel] cargo ship, the elderly captain kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, but whenever his eyes touched the shocking alarm signals on the dashboard, the sweat would involuntarily surge.
He never imagined that a freight trip that was supposed to be a thrilling and safe journey would have so many turmoil out of thin air! It was even about to turn into a tragedy of shipwreck and death!
According to the original plan, he just traveled between [Kun] and [Xun] to sell some agricultural products and daily necessities, just like an ordinary cargo captain.
Although in theory, he is a subordinate intelligence officer of Qiankun Security, the identity of the captain is just a cover, and it is his job to provide intelligence to the Security Bureau.
But as the most grassroots staff, the meager salary of their job is not enough to support the daily life of the elderly. Perhaps in the eyes of the Security Bureau, grassroots employees are not worthy of being human at all. Therefore, the old captain had to put his main energy on operating the cargo, and only occasionally reported what he had seen and heard to his superiors as required. Sometimes laziness occurs, and even the previous report is reissued directly, but no one asks. Although the life of this grassroots is poor, it is also leisurely and peaceful.
The fly in the ointment is that the old man's family life is not very harmonious: he and his wife divorced early, leaving only a rebellious and tortured daughter. This time, the disobedient girl went crazy and wanted to see the scenery of [Xun] no matter what she said, but as soon as she got on the ship, she began to complain about her meager income and the difficulty of raising children. It seems that they want to use the deadly trifecta of "father, poverty, and money" against their own father.
The old captain was dizzy from his daughter's nagging, so he lost his mind for a while, and started a contraband smuggling business in the deserted area of [Xun]... This is of course a violation of discipline, but in fact these subordinates of the Security Bureau , and not many can honestly abide by discipline.
And until the old man finished buying goods in the deserted area, things went smoothly. After all, this kind of thing was not the first time. From the captain to the crew, people are only a little apprehensive, but more excited and looking forward to it.
As long as this batch of goods can pass through the Xiajing Customs smoothly—according to past experience, most of them can pass through the customs as long as they raise the flag of the Security Bureau—then everyone can get a lot of dividends .
Bad luck also came at this time.
After the crew finished sorting out the smuggled goods in the cargo hold, they found that there was an extra person in the hold for no reason. That flat mask-like face was more frightening than any ghost in any fairy tale.
He did not kill or injure, and with his own temperament alone, he made the entire ship his captives. And when he took out the seal of the Security Bureau agent, the up and down of this giant camel-shaped cargo ship was even less daring to be half-hearted.
No matter from which point of view, they have no ability to resist each other.
Afterwards, according to the agent's request, the people purposely stopped the cargo ship in the deserted area for half a day, in order to lure a young man with a mysterious origin onto the ship. That young man was also a strange person, even though everyone was fully on guard, he was still sneaked onto the boat without knowing it. If it wasn't for the reminder from the agents of the Security Bureau, none of them would have noticed that the boy had mixed into the cargo box.
For many young crew members, the confrontation between teenagers and agents is like a fight between gods, and it is so exciting and dizzying to watch from a distance. But the aged captain became more and more worried. Because there has always been an old saying in the Gan Galaxy: When the gods fight, the little ghosts suffer.
Sure enough, the follow-up development completely confirmed the old man's guess. The young man who threw himself into the trap had no intention of waiting to die. His struggle in desperation directly led the whole ship to the abyss!
As a senior captain who has been in business for more than 20 years, he knows very well that when there are so many alarm signals on the dashboard, it is meaningless to even write a suicide note. After the spacecraft explodes, all records will become dust in space , nothing remains.
"Dad, what's going on?!"
Just when the old man was at a loss, his daughter's voice came from behind him. The child, who would never give birth in peace, was showing a look of extreme fear, looking at his father with pleading eyes.
"They said the spaceship was going to explode, they must be lying to me!?"
The old man looked at this daughter who gave him a headache and even more distressed, and was speechless for a while.
However, at this moment, as far as the old man could see from the corner of his eye, a bright red warning light on the dashboard suddenly went out. The sudden change of color caught his attention, followed by a burst of surprise.
"The temperature has dropped!? How is that possible, but..." The old man was very upset, and immediately used the communicator to call the full-time mechanic on the cargo ship.
"Xiaotang, how is the scene?"
In the communicator, the voice of the female mechanic, who is always cheerful and unrestrained, did not come out. After a while, she heard her mumbled: "No, this is impossible. How can you still do this? This is completely against common sense!"
The old captain was confused. Although he watched the warning lights on the instrument panel go out one by one, this too weird situation still made him feel hairy.
"Little Tang, what's going on!?"
The roar of the old captain finally woke up the mechanic on the other side of the communicator. However, a moment later, the reply from the communicator was dumbfounding.
"Captain, I don't know what's going on, that person is incredible! He can actually modify the engine on the spot, I've never heard that [Tianqiong-3] can be modified like this! Captain, you really should come and see it!"
The old captain was puzzled, but he was able to grasp the point: "So the spaceship is saved?"
An uncertain voice came from the communicator: "I don't know, I've never seen anyone make such a change, and I feel that the risk is quite high."
Almost at the same time, the alarm sounded frantically again on the instrument panel that had just been quiet for a while, and the entire spaceship vibrated violently.
In the communicator, there was a sigh of emotion: "Oh, it really will explode like this..."
The old captain was almost mad with anger: "It's true!? It exploded and you are still in the mood to watch the show!"
The mechanic said confidently: "Captain, I don't have anything else to do except go to the theater, and I have seen this kind of skill, even if we explode into cosmic dust in the next moment, it will be worth it!"
"...If you can go back alive, I will definitely kick you off the boat!"
"Captain, if I really can go back alive, relying on the unique skills I learned today, it is more than enough to be a mechanic repairer in Beihe Group."
"I knew you'd been flirting with that repair shop of Beihe Group all the time!"
