old light morning light

Chapter 139 "38"

As the two of us continued to go deeper, the surroundings gradually became quiet again, and only the echoing sound of our footsteps could be heard inside the passage made of hard alloy.

"Knock~kkk~!"

Almost no other crew members could be seen anymore, and the roar of the machines and the beeping of the instruments gradually faded out of my ears, as if... I was getting further and further away.

Where is he taking me?

There are no line "signposts" at the corners, and the passage in front of me may seem to be getting darker and darker under my subjective impression.

"It seems to have become deserted."

"Cool?"

"Oh, yes it's deserted, because next..."

The guy was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly turned his face away as if thinking of something, and pretended to be a joke.

It looks like he's trying to scare me, this way...it should be fine.

"Hey, I should strip you naked and throw you into the furnace for burning..."

Sure enough, this guy... Sigh.

"...I guess..."

The young officer with a grin, bared his teeth and claws and squeezed towards me, and put his right hand on my shoulder.

"you?"

But as you can see, the mischievous villains are quickly eaten up.

"It feels like you, why aren't you scared at all?"

Then I raised my hand to pinch my face, but I reacted and slapped my hand away.

"Smile or something, just twist your face..."

I should really smile a little, right?

"whee?"

Maybe what he said is right, at least this guy is acting so hard, I don't respond more or less, it will make me look so unreasonable?

"It was pretty handsome at first... Grass!"

It may be that seeing me play "humour", Dover didn't react and was shocked.

Hmm... Is my smile not good enough... Then I will smile again...

"It's boring!"

Hey, don't go...

Hmm... Little boy, play this game with me?

You didn't know where you were playing with the mud when I was breaking tiles on the roof of the Imperial Penitentiary.

"Further ahead is the box room area for foreign guests. Since it is a special module for external use, naturally no other crew members come here except for some necessary cleaning and maintenance."

Box room area?
If my level of Alliance language is not that bad, the word he just said means box, right?

Box room?

I admit that the hull of a cruiser is definitely not as spacious as a battleship, but as far as I can remember, it seems that I have never seen any box room, right?

Well, why did you suddenly stop again?
"It's right in front of you. Just follow this passage and you will see it soon."

Just when I was thinking wildly, Dover had stopped in front of me.

"It's getting late now, I have to go back and check in for your colleagues."

While talking, this guy glanced at the bug cake in my pocket again, and then looked at me with a slight flicker in his eyes, as if he wanted to say something to me?
"Uh... well, I'll go first?"

Wait, that look, did he misunderstand me?

How can such a good son really like to eat this thing?

Yes, maybe that's what it means...

"Hey, wait..."

No, I have to try to quibble, shall I?

"By the way, I suggest you stay in room 113C10 later, it seems to have the largest and most comfortable space for this module."

Perhaps realizing that I had ulterior motives to keep me, Dover stood on his feet and thought for a while, before I could say anything else, he came over and patted me.

He also winked at me quite spiritually, and at the same time left the embarrassment to me.

That look seemed to say:

"I understand everything."

You know what a fart, hey!
"Well then..."

In the end, I could only watch his back gradually disappearing at the far end of the passage, so in fact, no one will ever be able to accompany me on the walk, right?

What am I thinking about, why have I been thinking about these things all day long?
Alas, he said that if he walked forward, he would see... ah, did he mean here?

The light at the end of the corridor became slightly brighter, and it was the first time I saw the end of a passage on a ship.

A decorative painting was hung on the wall at the end for the first time. A white vase was embroidered on a light red background, and three yellow flowers of unknown species were inserted in the vase.

This is also the first time I have seen such a humane thing on a cold combat weapon like a warship.

Let's take a photo, after all, it is really rare, and it is well framed with a wood grain frame, which seems to be a super high-standard decoration compared to the surrounding environment.

But instead of getting an embroidered vase, it's better to put a small cabinet here, and put a real vase on it to look good...

Perhaps it is also considering the problem of gravity. If there is a problem with simulating gravity, these gadgets will not be very good, not to mention that the vase is still fragile.

On both sides of the passage are two double doors, one with 151C printed in light gray paint, and the other with 113C printed in black metallic paint.

The 113C10 mentioned by Dover just now should be this 113, right?

"Crack~"

The door is not locked and can be opened directly.

It was still the corridor, but it became a little narrower. The floor was covered with dark carpets, and there were hatches on the left and right sides. It looked more like the guest house where I lived there before.

08、09、10，这个房间应该就到113C10了吧？

But the intervals between these doors seem to be quite small. I doubt whether people can really live in it.

Terminal, do I need to swipe my card to open the door here?

Sure enough, it is locked...

"Drip~!"

It's a strange smell, and it doesn't always feel like a simple dust smell.

Open the door with the number 10 printed on it, and you can only see a bed, a slightly stacked quilt and a pillow that doesn't look like a pillow.

And it's not, once the door is closed, it's already against the bed, it's really just right, hey!
No wonder it is called a box room.

And are they really doing the "essential" cleaning?
Air conditioning panel, lighting adjustment, auxiliary table board.

Think about it, this is very similar to the poster of the Lepines luxury passenger ship I saw before, and he seemed to have mentioned modules just now. It seems that this should be a living module mass-produced according to certain specifications, right?
The bed board seems to be able to be pulled apart, the bottom seems to be a cabinet for storing things, and the top is a hanger, but I haven't thought of anything that can be hung.

I also don't want to see some strange things floating in front of me every day when I open my eyes.

There is also a small door on the left side of the bed. The sealing ring is used to strengthen the sealing, but it seems that because it has not been used for a long time, this thing is a bit old and it is stuck tightly...

"Boom~!"

Yes, there is actually a bathroom with a simple toilet and a washbasin, and the nozzle can be pulled out to be used as a rain shower.

However, the space is a little too small, and you can only turn your body sideways in it, and it is difficult to turn around.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

"Ouch!"

Now lying down like this, I seem to be a little sleepy again, this thing is still sticking to my ass, how annoying!
Just now Dover said that this seems to be the room with the largest space, so how do you see how small the other rooms are?
Thinking about it this way, I am still a little curious, should I go to the next door to take a look?
I have already swiped this door with this card, will swiping other doors...

"Kudden~Kudden!"

footsteps...

It seemed that someone else was coming.

"...well, let's stay there... for a long time..."

It seems that the sound insulation is not bad, even if the door is closed, even if the ears are pressed tightly, only a little sound can be heard faintly.

"... much... that's all..."

In fact, I feel that the voices of these people are also deliberately lowered, otherwise they would not sound so unclear.

The destination seems to be here too. It seems that other investigators have arrived. What they said just now took a long time. Maybe they are complaining about Dover making them wait for a long time?
"Are these... just living here?"

Female voices, are there any females among them who are of the same sex?

"Okay, but don't hug too much... I guess it might be... about the same."

The clarity of hearing is gradually increasing, and it seems that the distance between us should be constantly shortening.

So far, four different voices have been heard, three male and one female.

Can feel that they seem to be looking around.

"As long as you log in to the access control with the provincial card, you can... complete the formalities."

"Just swipe the card, right? It's all green...eh?"

The female voice has a higher pitch, and it seems to be more penetrating. I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but listening to her seems to be clearer than other people’s.

"The door here is red, it seems that someone has already moved in early?"

"beep!"

A clear female voice sounded outside the door, and at the same time, there was an alarm sounding that the access control was wrong.

It seems to be trying to swipe my access control again.

"How is it possible, haven't we all been stopped outside, why would someone come in early?"

After hearing the movement, other people also leaned over, at least they can hear clearly now.

Who can think of the chief culprit who caused them to wait outside, and now squat by the door to eavesdrop on them?
"Really, the access control shows a red light."

"But when did he run up?"

It sounds like the voices are more lively, maybe there are some younger people outside, right?
"Could it be someone who was already on board?"

"Probably not, what kind of people live in this place every day when they have nothing to do?"

"And this operation..."

What is the action?
"Shh!"

"someone is coming!"

Grass, why is someone here again?
Also, why did you interrupt him, let him continue talking, hello!
