old light morning light

Chapter 144 "43"

Great……

I'm still alive, and I worked hard... to survive.

"Cough cough..."

I tried my best to support the bed, and I reluctantly left the ground that was almost warmed by my sleep.

It looked like I was trying my best to throw myself into this small iron room before I actually lost consciousness.

Because I was squeezed in this posture, my legs were numb to the point of being unconscious...

It was enough to feel that my only goal at that time was to close the door, even though I was squeezed into the extremely small space between the door and the bed.

"Ugh!"

It should be said that there is no more strength to let myself fall on the bed.

There is still a feeling in my head that seems to be constantly expanding, as if it is constantly reminding me that the previous encounter is not a dream.

About an hour later, I woke up. It seems that the faster the effect of the drug, the faster the metabolism and the onset of effect.

It may also be because the old dog Kalinin used this medicine for me, which led to a certain degree of drug resistance in me.

Otherwise, it would be a medical miracle for me to run so far despite the effects of this medicine... Then do I still have to thank him?
Now let's see if I can send him a message... No signal.

It seems that the ship is already transitioning at a low speed, and the transition position will interfere with almost all common communication methods, even with the help of the super-optical communication network of the ship itself.

"Ugh."

That person, now that I think about how he bumped me before, it wasn't just a bump.

It was like reaching out for my pocket, but I didn't expect that there was an internal zipper designed inside, and I turned hard and accidentally bumped into me.

Are they aiming for something on me?
Is it this black card... Impossible!

It should be impossible for other people to know about this thing, so... what is their purpose?

The people on this ship, with one purpose or another, recalled what these people said at the door at that time...

"professor."

Yes, there are other nouns that appear, Airline Administration, and what a doctor explained.

"And he said...it'll work out..."

Yes, what exactly will be resolved?

Gee!
I seem to be inexplicably jumping from one trap to a new trap.

I thought about helping that old dog get the information before, but now even my life is threatened like this, heh!
Speaking of which, those people seemed to have been wandering inside for a long time, and the person who bumped into me did not leave. This can be proved from the fact that I can still see him afterwards.

And he didn't keep a close eye on me, but let me run back. For those who did this kind of thing on the warships of the Alliance Navy, it shouldn't be considered careless, right?

It's not that simple.

Maybe it's because I didn't pay attention to me deliberately, just wait for me to fall down and cause a commotion, or maybe there are other more noteworthy targets, or someone else has been staring at me in turn, so I have to stay dormant for a while.

But either way, for me...

"Ding dong~"

doorbell?

Is it my doorbell?

Damn it, although these people should not come to collect debts directly on the warship, it still makes people feel uneasy.

"Ding dong~?"

The continuous ringing of the doorbell seemed to imply that the attitude of the visitors outside the door was quite determined, and it seemed that there must be someone inside the cold iron door.

If I remember correctly, such an access control system should have a monitor, which can see the people outside the door, but...

I won't be able to understand this intelligent system for a while now, and my legs that are still almost paralyzed also prevent me from acting as I want.

"Ding dong~"

"Lin Man?"

Jessica?
"Are you in there?"

Along with the third doorbell rang, there was also a sound that made me feel slightly familiar.

How could it be Jessica?
The person outside the door is Jessica, so the question arises again, is he trustworthy?

At that time, he took the initiative to talk to me, and I didn't even know him at that time, so the purpose and motivation are naturally open to question.

But he seems to be quite well-educated, at least that kind of literary feeling, it is difficult for people to connect him with these people who use dangerous methods.

That kind of peaceful face and steady demeanor really didn't appear to be a disguise.

"Ding dong~"

Well, with the way I am now, if I encounter any danger, it is really difficult to deal with... Should I trust him?

"Crack!"

The person outside the door lifted his coat in a strange posture, and at the same time slightly turned his upper body. From my perspective, his left hand was covered in the shadow, as if he was holding something.

Maybe my way of opening the door is wrong...

"boom!"

"Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong!"

"Lin Man!"

The one he picked up just now seems to be Little Blue Star.

When he opened the door again, Jeska looked at me with a hesitant expression, but what he was holding in his hand was indeed a Little Blue Star.

The so-called Little Blue Star, whose full name is the Alliance Unity and Security Investigation Bureau, is also called the "Little Blue Star" because its members uniformly hold the blue star badge with the symbolic logo printed on the cover.

The abbreviation is called the Meng Security Bureau, and the transliteration of the abbreviation is also used in many informal occasions, and it is called Fobole.

"Uh, um..."

Facing me, I opened the page with the photo on it, and after I saw it, I squeezed it with my backhand, and I was about to stuff it into my clothes.

After quickly putting away the documents in her hand, Jeska immediately grabbed the door of my room, probably because she was afraid that I would close it suddenly again.

"I thought you were reluctant to open the door for me because you didn't trust me enough..."

No wonder this guy kept this strange posture just now, did he want me to see his ID through the monitor?
Hmph, in a sense, this guy is pretty cute too.

So little blue star, why are you looking for me?
It's not like, I was drugged just now, and he found out right away, right?
"Well, so little blue star came to me, and why?"

The eyes kept looking into my room, then looked around quickly, and then looked at me again.

It seems to be saying:
"If it's okay, can we come in and talk?"

same.

Yes, this is indeed too conspicuous, but it is also not conducive to concealing the embarrassment that I am still very weak.

But since this guy is an "interstellar policeman", there should be no problem, right?
Of course, the premise of all this is that no one dares to forge...forge Little Blue Star's certificate.

"come in."

"There's not much space inside, and you can just...yes, you can just sit on the edge after closing the door."

"Thank you, Lin Man."

Unclear thanks, but at least I maintained my good impression of him.

"Well, so why does Little Blue Star seek me?"

Jessica pursed her lips, then glanced at my leg and smiled.

"I shouldn't have told you this, but since you've fallen into it, you should also know."

To be honest, when this guy pursed his lips just now, I thought he wouldn't say something to me so easily.

"But before that I have to ask you a question."

"Have you ever taken renconfuridine before?"

What is it?

Why do you ask?

Is it because I was drugged just now?
"No, why do you ask that?"

Of course, I can't guarantee that the Kalinin old dog will not be used by me.

So this guy really knows that I was drugged, right?
"Hmm... It's a miracle that you can run so far like this."

"You're not surprised at all?"

"It seems that you..."

It seems that I already have a little understanding, don't you?
"Yeah, I can feel like I'm being drugged."

"Remember the guy who bumped into you before?"

"About two standard years ago, we intercepted a cargo ship belonging to the Dynasty Group during a routine inspection, and found a huge amount of prohibited items from the construction materials it carried."

Dynasty Group?

Here came another name I hadn't heard of.

"The person who bumped into you just now is one of the crew members on that cargo ship."

"Transporting contraband, why didn't you arrest him?"

"No evidence."

Jesska spread her hands and said helplessly.

"Dynasty Group provided materials that were framed by competitors, and those who were arrested also confessed to it."

"However, after investigation, the scale of the captured competitors is far from being a giant like the Dynasty Group, and it simply cannot reach the scale of the so-called competitors."

Good way, found a scapegoat.

"You can feel it too, right? Our intuition tells us that this is just a despicable golden cicada shedding its shell."

"During the next two years of investigation, we discovered that this dynastic group was far from being as simple as we imagined."

"Underground trading, prohibited items, unfair competition, violent bribery and other dirty practices are numerous."

"Although they hide very well, recently our investigators have found evidence that they are very close to some companies in the empire."

"Ask yourself, who can guarantee that these large enterprises are clean?"

"However, a recent investigation report stated that the Dynasty Group may have helped the Imperial Guerrilla Fleet to carry out attacks in the Alliance, so the nature of the incident has changed."

Helping the empire's guerrilla fleet to carry out attacks in the alliance territory, does this have anything to do with the sinking of those alliance cargo ships and transport ships that I heard before?
Then the investigation mission this time is also quite related to the empire's attack, so it is reasonable for these people to appear here, right?

"So, it is very likely that they appeared here to sabotage this investigation?"

The person in front of him nodded.

"There are a few members with obvious actions who have been killed by us before boarding the ship..."

"But there are still other people with ambiguous identities who got on the ship with them."
