Chapter Ninety-Three: Laughter in the Night
"Is this the terrain nearby? It looks like a mountain. Akashi looked at the holographic topographic map that the elves had simulated through the data. Said with some shock. It's the first time she's seen this kind of sci-fi image.
"This is indeed a mountain. It's just that all but the top of the mountain is flooded by the sea. Didn't you just see the wreckage of some houses at the bottom of the sea? Those are the houses that were originally built at the foot of the mountain. However, most of it has been corroded by seawater. Only a fraction of what can be seen now is seen. "Many of those houses are made of wood. There are very few things that can be left behind. Only some of the masonry buildings are still well preserved.
"What is this?" See the dense blue highlights that immediately appear on this map. Akashi asked a little strangely. "Are these the things that were just detected on the probe?" But then it happened. Didn't Luke just turn on some kind of probe on the submarine? The highlights on it are not the same as this one. It's all densely packed.
"Ahh That's right. It's some metal debris nearby that can be recovered. Luke said. The hull that controlled the submarine opened. The middle part is a storage bin. Everything you pick up will be placed here.
"Ahh No wonder. The space I had set aside before was for storing these things. "Look at this storage bin. Akashi's previous doubts make sense. Obviously, from the outside, the submarine is not small. Why is there only such a small space as the cockpit?
It turns out that Luke had intended to use it to collect the recyclables that had sunk to the bottom of the sea. "Is there any use in you retrieving the wreckage?"
"Ahh Do you need to ask? Recycling, of course. Resources are so scarce right now. The Governor's Palace's ration is simply not enough? You see, I still have more than half of the space here, and I can't continue the construction because of the lack of steel. He gestured to the wall above his head, where a large part of the rock formation was still exposed. Luke said. After transferring all the data, he nodded in satisfaction.
Data at hand. The next thing is to give Lian a few trainings. That way, they'll be able to use it to gather all the resources around them.
"Recycling. Not. That's right. ”
"Alright. There's nothing going on here. Let's go. Luke carried the large piece of shipwreckage he had just picked up from the sea. Put it in the factory and let the goblins break it down.
Until dinnertime. Akashi seems to have just remembered what he was doing here. Asked Luke. "That's right. That's about the location of the store. Is there anything convenient in the base. ”
"Ahh That's what I was asked for. I was going to start expanding the base right away. I didn't expect you to come. That's really a problem. Why don't you just put it in Lilian's factory for the time being? It just so happened that her factory had moved to me. There's nothing else out of the ship's maker. Luke thought for a moment. Now, there is a bit of empty space in addition to Lillian's factory. The rest of the place is basically going to be renovated soon.
"Hmm. This one is okay too. Nodding his head, Akashi didn't think there was a problem. It's quite a big place in this base. But since Luke said that only there will be no movement for a short time. So she just did it honestly. It wouldn't be much better anywhere else.
"Ahh That's right. Since you have opened a store with me. So about the question of rent. Luke just felt a flash of inspiration in his head. The word rent popped up suddenly. Since they all have set up shop with him. Is he going to collect some rent or something?
"Huh. The Governor didn't ask me for rent or anything. And. I don't have any money. "I heard Luke say that. Akashi immediately exploded. She didn't even have a penny. Previously, all the daily expenses at the Doge's Palace were paid for by the Doge's Palace. All the gold earned went to the elves. She's been working for free.
Now why is this guy so embarrassed to ask her for rent? Ahhhh Is.
Seeing Akashi holding his head in his hands, he looked crazy. Plus she doesn't really look like she has any money. Luke smiled awkwardly. "Ahaha. That one. I'm kidding. I won't charge you rent. ”
"Really. Don't joke about this kind of thing. I heard Luke say that. Akashi breathed a sigh of relief. Sit down again. Good thing Luke was just kidding. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known that she would go back because she didn't have the money to pay the rent. Will you be laughed to death by the big yodo of the Governor's Palace?
Akashi was appeased. The location of the store has been decided. But Luke was more curious about the location. But he didn't even see Akashi come with anything. So is this fairy store just a sign?
"Then I'll let the elves stay in Admiral Lilian's factory today. Tomorrow, I guess the goblins will be able to make the storefront. Thank you for your hospitality. Akashi put down the dishes and chopsticks. After saying hello to a few people, I walked towards the dormitory.
Lillian saw her go first. hurriedly followed. Akashi doesn't have a password for the dormitory. It's not good to be blocked out by the gate then.
"Admiral. About that submarine. "Seeing Akashi leave. Fusang asked Luke. She still doesn't quite understand the purpose of that submarine. It is not equipped with any weapons. Does Luke want to use this thing to fight against the deep sea?
"Ahh What's wrong. I'll teach you how to use that submarine tomorrow. It's not too early today. Rest early in the evening. ”
"Huh. But. So what the hell do you want to do with that submarine? Luke didn't say anything. Fuso continued to ask with some distress. Although knowing that Luke is already strong in his own right. But if you sit in such a submarine, the danger will increase.
"Ahh That's it. It's just to explore the resources around the island. By the way, it's just to recycle those recyclable resources nearby. After all, there are a lot of things that can be recycled on the bottom of the sea? It's up to you then. I didn't have much time to drive that thing around the neighborhood myself. I heard Fuso ask. Luke knew what Fuso was worried about again.
It's not like he doesn't know about this kind of thing. She didn't have to worry about any of that.
"Ahh That's right. Then I'm relieved. Fuso breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Luke doesn't want to drive this thing to fight the deep sea. Open this. Maybe it's better for Luke to just leave nothing at all.
"What do you think? Even if my brain was in the water, I wouldn't drive this thing to fight the deep sea. Looking at your expression, I know you're crooked again. All right. I'll go back first. Let's see if that guy is honest. With that, Luke turned and left.
In the past few days, although Ashigara and Oh-chan have lived together, nothing has happened. But after all, Ashigara came out of the gendarmerie. It's not okay to pay more attention.
When I returned to the above accommodation. Luke happened to see Ashigara sitting at the table in the living room watching TV. Oh sauce, the three of them casually lay in front of the TV. Xiao Su also rolls around on the ground from time to time.
I said. The three of you. Don't get so close to the TV. I have to say it every time. He said to the three of them at the door. Luke said hello to Ashigara and went back to his room to rest.
Since nothing happened. Then there's basically nothing to worry about. After all, these three guys. Although it has the appearance of a deep sea. But in essence, they are all good and obedient children. Even if Ashigara is from the gendarmerie. I want to get along for so many days. I shouldn't be able to bear to make a move on these guys.
Not to mention, Luke had chopped off her ship's loadout. No matter how you think about it, she doesn't have any means of attack. Unless this guy is like Luke and slashing people with a knife. Not. There are kitchen knives in the kitchen. But this is too unlikely. It's simply not possible.
……
"I see. Those guys actually use this to know the daily password. I said why I saw the password entered by Xue Feng last time. I just can't open the door. It turns out that this password changes every day. Honda looked at the phone in his hand. A face full of excitement. It's finally time for him to get moving. With this thing. He would be able to enter places that he couldn't get into before.
But then again, this phone seems to be snowy. It's the password I saw from Yukikaze before. This time, I picked up Xuefeng's phone again. This guy is simply his lucky star.
Good. Now that you have this thing. In case things change. He'd better start tonight.
Honda felt that he was already a little out of control of his body. The cells all over the body are ready to move. It's already the middle of the month. As long as he succeeds today. Then just wait patiently until the end of the month. He was able to return to the gendarmerie with Tianjin Feng.
In that case. Hey. You don't have to think about promotion or anything. Maybe he can be a commander too. In that case. It's not about how much you want.
These guys. I don't know the correct way to use these shipwives at all. Hey.
Lewd laughter suddenly rang out from inside Honda's room. Makes Kura, who was patrolling the base for the night, frown. Supervision of this gendarmerie. The whole person looks gloomy and gloomy. Why is it so abnormal at night. It seems necessary to report this situation to the Admiral.
The superintendent of this gendarmerie must have some problem in his head.
And this guy hasn't slept at such a late hour. Tomorrow we have to ask everyone to be more vigilant. This kind of crazy guy is the most dangerous. Let's go back now. The inside of the base is basically normal. But there seemed to be a strange sound in the factory. Maybe the goblins are messing with something again.
