Chapter 134 "33"

"...What you said is completely wrong. This time it's an investigation mission, so the subsidy will be cut in half..."

"...how could this be..."

The open hatch here seems to be the crew passage, and they all wear standard naval service uniforms.

The content of the chat is also related to this voyage.

The people in the high places have already started to pay attention to me. If I had known it was true, I would have gone back and changed into a student uniform. My body here is too eye-catching!

I remember just seeing that there should be a small gangway on this side, and there should be a small door...

Oh here.

"Hello."

Grass!
Do these people like to hide in the dark and scare people!
"You... hello."

The man with half his head poking out from the hatch grinned at me, then looked me over.

"Are you reporting new students this year?"

Although the rest of his body cannot be seen from this angle, the light-colored shoulder tags with green embroidered edges on the exposed shoulders should be junior officers of the small-caliber automatic weapons team.

Seeing me wandering around the ship without any uniform, a reasonable guess.

"Yes."

Should I salute him or something at this time?

"It looks like you have a good relationship with you, are you very interested in this ship?"

"I should have been able to show you a little bit, but today I have been asked to receive some foreign guests here, so..."

He looks very easy-going, and what he said about receiving foreign guests... Well, can't it just be talking about us representatives of various groups participating in the investigation?
What about my Beihuan business certificate?

"That, thank you."

But there is one thing to say, can this kind of special ship be taken for a casual tour?

"Although it's unbelievable, are you referring to the foreign guests who hold this kind of job card?"

"Ok?"

"You show me?"

The slightly surprised person finally stretched out his whole body, and by the way, took out a transaction terminal-like thing from the side cabin wall.

"drop!"

"Identity registration is complete, welcome to board the ship."

"Grass! Really!"

The surprised expression became serious, and the young naval officer carefully looked at the terminal in his hand, and then began to look at me again.

"Augusta Linman?"

"it's me."

At this time, I should show him my student ID card, right?
After all, in the Alliance Navy, the stamp and digital certificate of the Alliance Military University are more effective than anything else, aren't they?
"This is my identification."

"Hmm...Augusta Linman, a technical non-commissioned officer substitute, a first-year preparatory school?"

"First year of preparatory school?"

As if thinking of something bad, the naval officer in front of me stared at my student ID card with slightly frightened eyes.

What happened to the first year of prep?
Is it because it is completely impossible for a "rookie" like me to participate in this relatively authoritative investigation task?
"drop!"

After looking at my work card of Beihuan Business and Trade, I adjusted the handheld terminal and swiped my student ID card.

"The identity has been confirmed, and there is no permission to board the ship."

"It's actually... true?"

It seemed rather surprised to hear him mumbling something.

"Then can I make a fake certificate for you, hello!"

"I... oh, sorry."

But fortunately, this guy quickly recovered his composure, patted his face lightly and smiled at me again.

This guy recovers pretty fast.

"It's just that I didn't think of it, hey! Slow down, this gangway has fallen a lot of people!"

"I just didn't expect you, a preparatory student who just came in, to be able to participate in such an investigation mission on behalf of Beihuan."

"Hmph, I look unreliable, don't I?"

Silence means acquiescence.

whispering sound!
"Boom!"

What the hell!

Just as I was chatting with this guy, a violent explosion came from not far away, and it seemed that even here I could feel the tremor.

"what happened?"

Looking from the cabin door that was boarded just now, one can only see thick black smoke rising from the dazzling array of facilities in the distance.

It looked like something had exploded.

"Don't make a fuss, there are many dangerous things around the W area."

Someone patted my shoulder and pulled back the half of my body that was leaning out.

"In that direction, there is an energy weapon test center affiliated to the Alliance Naval Engineering Department. The explosion just now should be the movement made by those crazy scientists."

Does he call this level of explosion "movement and stillness", it seems that I am indeed very rare.

"The last time it was the oil refining facility, and the last time it was the mineral compression processing center forged by Stardust. Anyway, there will always be some movement here every two days."

The person in front of me made strange remarks and spread his hands towards me, signaling me to relax.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself."

"Daufour, Guillermoille Daufour."

"Actually, according to the language of my hometown, it should be called Trevor Lau, but now the registration status is required to use the standard Union language, so it has become Dover."

Dover...

"It is worth mentioning that Tefler is in my hometown, which means sunny."

Could it be... Is this guy a chatterbox?

"As you can see, I am the leader of the third automatic artillery team on this ship. Don't look at me like this, I am already a first-class second lieutenant in the Navy!"

Dover patted his epaulettes, looking very proud.

But it is true that the first-level second lieutenant is just a second-level lieutenant, and as soon as the time is up, he will automatically be replaced as a third-level lieutenant.

What I don't want to admit is that, according to the age of this chatter, being a lieutenant is indeed something to be proud of.

"Hey, don't talk, you'll embarrass me..."

As if realizing something, he finally showed a little embarrassed look, scratched his head a little and then patted my back.

"No, I just feel that you are too enthusiastic, and I don't know what to say at once."

"If the officers of the alliance are as lively and talkative as you, then the internal environment must be quite united and harmonious."

I promise I'm telling the truth...

"This is..."

Dover scratched his head while glancing at the bulging bug cakes in my left and right pockets.

"They don't seem to want to talk to me, maybe they dislike me for talking too much?"

Good guy, you know it's not a good thing to talk too much, don't you?
"It's also possible that I'm too tired and don't want to continue communicating with you, right?"

"It's possible, but..."

No, I really can't continue talking with this guy here, and now I seriously suspect that Dover is a fake naval officer.

I'm afraid this isn't a related account, is it?

"Why, you look in my bag, do you want to eat this?"

Since this is the case, let's start with this, I don't believe he doesn't know that this thing is "bug cake", right?

"Haha, forget it, I've already had breakfast..."

Sure enough, after Dover waved his hand, he immediately changed the subject.

"Well, you came much earlier than I expected, so I can make an exception and show you around on the boat before more people arrive?"

Hmm... Although I really mean it, but visiting with this guy, I'm really afraid of being bored to death by him...

Wait, is it possible to get some information out of his mouth?
At least the card that the old dog Kalinin gave me, I have to find a place to insert it... Isn't it?

"Uh, fine then."

"Thank you."

Think about it, Lin Man, I have to make up some nonsense to cover this guy's words again.

It's not the first time being a bad guy anyway, is it?

"Haha, thank you for what. I just feel that I have a good relationship with you the first time I saw you. I always feel that I must show you my boat when I have the opportunity."

Your ship, huh... Maybe this guy will take over as captain tomorrow?
"Look at the end, I'm really showing you around now, isn't it a coincidence!"

"Is it a coincidence?"

As if he was afraid that I didn't hear, this guy stopped suddenly while walking ahead, turned around and asked me another question.

"Yes, yes, it is indeed a coincidence, a very fate."

"I'll just say it!"

Let me just say, I kind of know why these crew members don't want to talk to him anymore.

It's so much to say...

"This side is all ordinary cabins. If you are willing to study in the Naval Academy, I believe you should already know about these common things, right?"

"What major are you studying?"

"Will you be interested in small-caliber automatic artillery?"

Good guy, I gave me a gift package for asking questions while talking and laughing.

"I……"

Wait, he asked this question... He is also in the small-caliber weapons group, and he just told me that the general cabin is not very interesting.

Then can I understand that he has a subjective desire to show me the more core content, but he is a member of the automatic artillery team, so it is more convenient to start here?
Is that as long as I pretend first...what a pretend!
As long as I can always maintain a strong curiosity, I can always find a chance for him to lead me to find that what...

Oh, the terminal of the combat network, I just need to plug it in...

"I'm very interested."

Strange, I still feel a strong sense of disobedience, even though I think I have given up this unnecessary emotion, but this strange pressure will still creep up in my heart.

"I'm very interested in the things I see in front of me. Even if it's the ordinary cabin you just mentioned, I would like to observe it myself if I have the opportunity."

To be honest, sometimes I really doubt myself, is it as bad as I expected.

"Hahaha, is that right, then you are really studious!"

Eager to learn...?

"Let's go, let me show you the maintenance room of our small-caliber weapons!"

"You'll improve so fast!"

In the end, do I want to be a good person, or a bad person...
