Because of the imminent arrival of Aquarius EZ, at this moment, many people in the fugitive fleet of human civilization are already busy. Trillions of people have consumed a considerable part of the material reserves of human civilization during this year's voyage, so human civilization must obtain sufficient supplies in this galaxy, and this requires a lot of preparation.

In order to ensure the efficiency of the supply process, the government had to choose more efficient machines than human power to carry out the work, which means that although the project is huge, it actually does not use much manpower, so it has nothing to do with the large number of people at the bottom who want to get a job.

Evans also didn't pay much attention to this matter, compared to this matter, Evans thought it was more important to fill his family's stomach.

After five days of anxious waiting, Evans dressed himself up early in the morning and went to the agreed place. It was still the somewhat vicious man who received him. There were already some people waiting, and Evans, though he had arrived early, seemed to be the last one.

Those who were waiting had the same expectant look in their eyes as Evans. Obviously, they are also in desperate need of this job. After Evans arrived, the big man waved his hand casually, and a large hovercar came here, and this group of people came to the hovercar under the command of the big man.

The hovercar then started, making many detours in the process, even making Evans a little dizzy. Evans didn't know where the car was going, but from the changes in the buildings on both sides of the car, Evans probably knew that he had left the city and was on the edge of the space island.

The edge of the island is home to some factories or docks, and it's not a residential area, so there's no one there. Along the way, the hovercar did not encounter any interrogation, and was occasionally stopped once or twice, and was also allowed to pass under the exchange of the big man.

The hovercar eventually came to a halt in a place full of crumbling boxes, and the group got out of the car again under the command of the big man. Evans felt a little uneasy in his heart, so he leaned over to the big man and asked with some trepidation, "Excuse me, ...... Where are you taking us? ”

Dahan still looked impatient: "What to ask, you will know when you arrive." ”

It seems to be a port, but judging by the clutter of things here, it looks like it's been abandoned.

When they arrived at the port, there were more people, but none of them seemed to be serious people, and they all looked like the big man. Evans was so worried that he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only follow the footsteps of the crowd and walk through the long corridors, and finally came to the edge of the port.

The crowd stopped here, and another big man came over and shouted at the crowd: "We are a mining company, and we have contracted a mineral gathering business from the government to extract minerals from an asteroid. Well, the working period is 30 days, and the salary will be settled after 30 days. ”

Evans was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "I haven't been engaged in interstellar mineral gathering before, so I won't do these things." ”

The big man glanced at Evans and said coldly, "We will take care of the training." If you don't have faith, you can quit now. ”

Being glared at by the big man, Evans was a little frightened, so he had to lower his head.

A group of mermaids boarded the boat and sat down.

It was a converted civilian spaceship, it was not large, it looked quite shabby, and the environment in the cabin was very harsh, and in some places there was even a thick layer of black stains.

After waiting in the ship for a while, the hull shook slightly, and Evans knew that the ship had been activated. The scenery by the window changed light and shadow, Evans saw that the brilliant space island was getting farther and farther away from him, and finally became a small point of light and then disappeared, Evans turned his head, and saw that he was up and down and left and right There were such points of light, as if he was floating in a sea of light spots.

One of these many points of light suddenly began to grow larger and brighter, eventually taking the shape of a spaceship. The ship had the distinctly military-standard exterior of a ship, and was also smeared with distinct military insignia. It floated next to the ship and followed it.

The military spacecraft appeared to be checking the civilian spacecraft. I don't know what the pilot of this spaceship answered, but the military spaceship drifted away three minutes later, and once again turned into a point of light on the horizon, and it was no longer distinguishable in the sea of light spots.

The civilian ship seems to have chosen a route to deliberately avoid being checked, but even then, it has been subject to five checks along the way, each of which has managed to pass without a hitch.

The spaceship seems to be accelerating and moving farther and farther away from the star. Evans's doubts grew, and some commotion began to appear among those who had boarded the ship with Evans. Eventually, one of the people shouted, "Where the hell are you taking us?" ”

Two big men came to the cabin from the front, and Evans was keenly aware that the two big men had an energy gun on their waists. One of the big men grabbed a stick in his hand, walked over and slapped the man who had just screamed in the face, and Evanston was so silent that he didn't dare to speak anymore.

"If you don't want to be thrown out of the cabin, be honest." Dahan said coldly.

Evans's heart sank slowly, into the abyss.

There is a comet at the nearest of the three stars of EZ Aquarius, more than 10 billion kilometers away. Because it is so far away from the star, it does not have a smart tail at the moment, just like an ordinary cold asteroid. Unlike other asteroids, in the exploration of human civilization, it has been labeled as having no mining value, so at this moment, except for some sneaky and dilapidated spaceships, there are no engineering ships or escort ships belonging to human civilization to come here.

Evans' spaceship arrived at the comet along with several other equally dilapidated ships, and the ships slowly descended less than a hundred meters from the comet and levitated there. Evans saw that there were many ships that had stayed here beyond his ship, but all of them were silent, like icy rocks floating on top of a comet.

Later, all the lights of the ship that Evans was flying in were turned off, all the communication modules were turned off, and the ship's engines were reduced to their lowest power. This spaceship...... He also became one of the many cold stones.

There was no sound in the cabin. Faintly, Evans heard someone in the control cabin in front of him talking: "Ship 31 has successfully reached its designated destination, and the number of slaves carried on this ship is ...... One hundred and thirty-nine ......"

A faint sobbing sound finally sounded in the cabin. In the darkness, the sobs grew louder and louder. At this time, everyone understands what is happening and what kind of fate they will have in the future.

"Let us go back! You brutes! Beside Evans, a man suddenly jumped up screaming, and ran to the front control module. But then a bright light pierced the darkness, and the shout came to an abrupt end.

The energy gun fired, and landed an accurate blow to the head of the Shouter, claiming his life in an instant.

The big man with the gun said coldly: "Either obey or die." ”

Silence returned to the cabin.

Perhaps because the temperature control system had been reduced to its lowest power, Evans began to feel a chill through his heart. This wasn't Evans alone, everyone in the cabin was shivering. But no one paid any attention to them.

I don't know how long it took, but the two men with guns brought a basket of rancid food, and a crowd of people, Evans was no exception - they were so hungry that Evans even suspected that even if they had dug up the sewers, they would have eaten them in an instant.

The cabin was dark and cold. When there is nothing to eat, people huddle together and shiver, and when there is something to eat, they flock to it. Time passes day by day, and life repeats itself like this. In the process, people died, either from disease and cold and starvation, or from trying to resist. All the dead, without exception, were thrown from the cabin to the comet below, where they merged with the icy comet.

Perhaps because of the support of those points of light in the distance, Evans was very lucky to survive. Evans knew that his wife and children were in those spots of light, and that although life on the island was not good, it would never go to the point of dying of cold and starvation, nor would he be sick but could not be cured. So they must all be alive and well. Since they are still alive...... You should be alive too.

"They're supposed to be aware of my disappearance." Evans silently thought, "Someone will come to our rescue, it will definitely ......"

But Evans didn't wait for that day in the end. I don't know how long it took to be in this dark cabin, but Evans despaired when he saw that the spots of light that had once spread throughout the galaxy began to dim and become scarce. Because Evans knows...... The fugitive fleet of human civilization is about to embark on a new escape journey, and these people themselves ...... will be forever forgotten here.

"I have to live, I have to go home. You have abandoned me, and I will find a way to go back on my own. Evans thought silently, his eyes becoming firm. (To be continued.) )
