Chapter 17 - 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea 07
- Time: Hours ago, night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info――
It was night, and in addition to the 'vampire' Dio, who barely slept at night, there were many people who couldn't sleep. Militarization only applies to those outside of mercenaries, so Sixteen Nights, who also can't sleep, quickly finds Dio with the blood bag she stole from the ship's cold storage. are both 'non-human', these two guys don't have a good reputation on submarines, and they are the only non-humans among the mercenaries.
However, not everyone is wary of aliens.
"Look, it's funny, isn't it? This submarine, I was shocked when I first came, what kind of boat can move in the water? It's just science fiction!" laughed as Sixteen Nights laughed as she raised her glass.
Dio slammed his legs on the table and looked around with his pipe in his mouth. This is the submarine's chess room, and the "Carlibar" usually stays underwater for months, and if it weren't for that, the crew would have gone crazy. And this is also a bar, and many guys who can't sleep like Dior and Dior gather here.
Of course, it's completely closed for the duration of the mission, and there is even a sale of tobacco - these mercenaries are paid £50,000 a month, and the bar owner doesn't intend to give them drinks for nothing.
"Well, right? After all, no one believed that this kind of thing could be made a few years ago, just like now Ming Guo has made a large and small flying machine, but no one thinks that thing can come in handy. ”
Sitting at the same table as Dio and Sixteen Nights was a female soldier named Saliya, who had served for at least five years. She has intriguing long brown hair, and from the Soviet Union, she looks much thinner than her compatriots, but she's one of the few people on board to have experienced the captain of a two-person submarine.
"The former captain was Yuru, right? I think I've heard of it. Dio looked at the two drunken guys in front of him, intending to keep his sanity and knock out some useful information.
But the girl is destined to be disappointed, and the guys who have been in the military ruffians all the year round are usually drunk and pretended.
"It's a military secret, I've signed a non-disclosure agreement, and it's stupid to get drunk trying to knock something out of the mouths of us people. Saria burped and looked confused.
"It doesn't matter what happens like that, don't you drink it, Dior?" Sixteen Nights lifted the bottle of vodka and shook it in front of Dior.
Wine. She could only remember the smell of alcohol in the house from her childhood, and the mixed memories made her a little unhappy, she shook her head, stared at the shelves on the bar for a moment, and asked:
"What kind of wine is the red card?"
"Huh? You say whiskey or vodka? There is a big difference between the two, the red card vodka is the transparent kind, that is, it is pressed on the shelf, and it is generally used to make cocktails, and it has no taste in itself, and it is not delicious," Sixteen Nights and Moon Zhou frowned, and then laughed heartlessly, "The red card whisky is the kind that sells best, whether it is the Ming or the Soviets, they like that thing very much, but you are still British, it is made in Scotland." Hawkers, the wine of the Ming Kingdom is also good, but many of it is not very popular in the army, and a lot of wine there is produced and sold... If you don't go there, you can't drink at all. ”
"Either way, I hate it. ”
"Don't say that, do you think there is any entertainment in this hellish place?" Sixteen Night pinched the wine glass and put it on his hand, holding Dior's neck, and the strong smell of wine came to his face.
You keep me away, although I want to say so, but Dio still retracts the words that slipped into his mouth. Now that she's gathering information, it's best not to keep too much distance.
"You know what? This guy is getting married next week, and she's going back to the Soviet Union then, right?"
Sixteen Nights smirked and glanced at Sariya, who blushed because of alcohol or shyness. The latter jerked up the glass, poured it down her throat, and slammed the empty glass against the table before she spoke.
"I said, month, shouldn't that kind of thing be kept secret?"
"It's a pity, I didn't promise you confidentiality, and I didn't sign a confidentiality agreement, besides, isn't this something worth blessing?"
Sitting back in his seat with a bored face, Sixteen Nights poured wine into his wine glass again. Dio sighed, couldn't she hear anything but gossip? She turned her head to look at the people around her, and she always felt like she was being stared at by someone... After awakening from the Book of DIO, her senses became very acute, and she soon found that gaze in the crowd.
The man who was sitting drinking with a group of male soldiers smiled and raised his glass to Dior.
"Who is that person?"
"Well... Hiccup, Saria's fiancé, seems to be called Loren, right? The two of them are scheduled to leave the Hunters Department for a wedding in England. ”
Wedding... These two people don't seem to be so compatible.
"Are Loren and Salia comrades-in-arms?" Dior guessed.
"Yes, these two people used to be Yuru's subordinates, they all belonged to a group, and most of the actions were together, I also think, these two people don't look like a couple, and it's impossible to get together otherwise, right?"
"Are there any other capable people on the submarine?" asked Dior.
"Well, there must be, but it could be another team, and I don't know who it is. "Sixteen Nights Moon shrugged.
"I've heard that I've found another person who can move things," Salia was sipping her wine when she heard Sixteen Nights' words, and suddenly remembered, "It must be from the logistics department, right? I remember being pulled in without Old York's permission... It's really worrying. ”
"Huh, old York, I don't know, what the fuck is going on, those people up there!" said Sixteen Nights and Moon suddenly became angry, and slapped the table dissatisfied.
"Old York, his consent?" said Dior.
"Yes, do you remember the question Old York asked you when you joined the team?" "Sixteen Nightmoon held out his finger and dangled it in front of her eyes, "Those questions are all questions that can be answered with "YES" and "NO", right? Come in without his consent..."
Sixteen Nights paused, but did not continue.
This means that the person is most likely unreliable.
"Do you know the man's name?" Sixteen Nights immediately turned to ask Sarah, "I'll make a little report to Old York to-morrow." ”
"Ahh Well, I don't remember clearly, I'll contact you tomorrow. ”
Salia smiled sweetly.
-Now--
Dio counted the remaining ammunition, she didn't have much on her, the other party was not only a person with the ability to 'move items', but also an ability to attack directly from nowhere when he knew the location of her and the Sixteen Nights.
"Saria is also dead, is that the person who did it? Didn't Saria tell you who that person was before that?"
"No... Didn't she say anything when you took her to the infirmary?"
“... She didn't really know who that person was, but Loren knew... But..."
Loren is also dead.
Yes, consider it from here. That guy just got his hands on it today... That's right, I heard the conversation between Sixteen Nights, Saria and Dior at the bar. So the man thought he was going to be exposed, he knew that members like Salia or Loren could get on the list, so he attacked them, and as a result... Dio and Sixteen Nights escaped by relying on their abilities, and in order to prevent Yuru and Old York from being attacked from the shadows, they had to temporarily conceal their whereabouts.
An opponent in an unknown dark place capable of delivering hyperspace strikes... It's too hard to deal with, it's not the way to go on like this... Although Sixteen Nights wanted to take the initiative, Dior didn't think so.
"I don't believe there's one person on the entire submarine who can deal with that guy, besides..."
Dior's eyes narrowed.
Old York and Yuru would always have guessed such a person... I'm afraid, old York, when he brought everyone together, knew it. That man is the kind of guy who can remember exactly how many people he added to come in.
Just wait, wait for the man to show any flaws.
