Chapter 107: A Little Thing That Was Overlooked
"But why would anyone build a communication tower in such a remote place to receive information?" Zhou Xin muttered to himself suspiciously.
"There's no record of this — there's no record of that part of the data that people got from the device." Hearing Zhou Xin's question, Atlas replied with some embarrassment.
"Then just continue the investigation, it stands to reason that there can't be no relevant records." Zhou Xin waved his hand and said, and after finishing speaking, he reminded again, "However, you still have to be careful when investigating." Although the probability of us being able to encounter danger in this place is quite low, since the other party can build a communication tower on this planet and also set up an alarm system in the equipment, then we should still pay attention to the other party's possible defense methods, it will not be good if it causes unnecessary trouble, after all, we may have to stay here for a long time. ”
"People get it." Atlas replied casually with five words before quickly disappearing from the screen.
Just as the little girl disappeared, Spred and Dart walked in through the door. Zhou Xin noticed that at this time, both of them had a rare trace of melancholy on their faces.
"What's wrong? Neither of you seems to be in a very good mood. Before the two of them could get closer, Zhou Xin asked.
Walking in front of Zhou Xin in two steps, Spred and Dart glanced at each other, and then Spred said directly with concern: "I'm afraid our maintenance work needs to be slowed down a bit." ”
"What happened? Did something go wrong? Zhou Xin asked eagerly, and Spred's words made his emotions tense all of a sudden.
"Don't be so nervous, it's not a big deal." Dart spoke for a reassuring sentence before continuing to explain, "It's just that Spred and I agree that most of the crew on the ship needs a good rest these days. Seeing that Zhou Xin was still a little puzzled, he and Spred took turns to introduce the recent situation of the crew one by one.
In the introduction of the two, Zhou Xin learned that since the maintenance work of the Voyager began, all the capable crew members have joined the maintenance work. Of course, it was fine when the ship stayed on the planet Norsan at first, and everyone just worked according to the scheduled time. Although some people have overfulfilled the maintenance task, this is also common sense, and there is nothing surprising.
However, this has changed a lot since the Voyager was lucky enough to escape from the attack of the Norsan civilization. Since then, many people have begun to extend their working hours without authorization, and many people have even spent all their time except sleeping on the maintenance of the ship, which is why the repair progress of the badly damaged Voyager has been carried out so quickly.
"For almost two months, everyone exceeded their work deadlines every day. Some have even done more than twice as much work as they should have done. As you know, because of the lack of robots, a lot of the work assigned to them last month was the work of the original engineering robots, which was already very heavy, but they still dared to exceed the quota. There are even some bastards, who secretly joined in the work of repairing the spaceship before the injuries they suffered when the spaceship fell before they healed, which is really fatal. Halfway through that, even Spred, who was usually so easy and unprovoked, burst into foul language.
"Is this still the case?" Zhou Xin was quite surprised. At the moment when Spred had just said this, he was moved by the actions of the crew. Of course, while being moved, he also felt a little remorseful, "It's been so long, why didn't you find out before?" ”
"Because the number of robots on the ship had never reached such a small level before, we didn't notice this at first, and we always thought that the work progress during this time was still normal." Dart replied, "It wasn't until the other day that we discussed the anomalies in the recent behavior of the Norsan civilization that Spred realized that something seemed to be wrong with our recent state of work. So, after investigating along the lines, we discovered the crew's anomaly. ”
"The crew even guessed that we weren't allowed to do it, so they would sneak behind us when they were working outside of the allotted hours, which was one of the reasons we didn't find out before." Spred said helplessly, and then he blamed himself, "It's also my fault, it's all my negligence." ”
"It's not just you, even I haven't noticed." Zhou Xin also blamed himself ashamedly, "During this time, my attention was all focused on some important and important things, but I ignored these small things. But now it seems that some of the little things are not all small things. After remorse, a question also appeared in his heart, "But although the maintenance work of the Voyager is very important, I have not rushed the crew for this, why did they suddenly have such a sense of urgency?" ”
"It's not because of the Norsan's attack." Spred smiled wryly, "After we got away with it, many crew members who originally thought we could rely on the help of the Noshan civilization changed their minds. They felt that if they had done a little more work to repair the ship before the Norzans attacked, we wouldn't have been so embarrassed to escape. It was also for this reason that they realized that the Voyager was the support of everyone on board. Therefore, many people inexplicably have a sense of urgency in their hearts to complete the repair of the spaceship as soon as possible, and the actual embodiment of this feeling is their selfless work behavior. ”
"However, after almost two months of this behavior, the crew members are actually seriously overdrawn." Spred continued, "Although there is no physical abnormality in them at this time, I have asked Wren to do a preliminary examination of the physical condition of several of them before coming here. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "The results of the examination are not optimistic, although on the surface there is nothing wrong with those crew members, but in fact, they have begun to show signs of serious overdraft inside their bodies. According to Wren's judgment, if they continue to work like this, within a month, there is a possibility that a crisis similar to the previous space sickness event will break out on the ship......"
