'Bang! ～’

Kicking open the thick hatch deck of the Beetle landing transport, Lieutenant Chebman bit his cigar and walked out of the cabin with a big grin.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the cabin, his face suddenly turned a little purple. Coming to his senses, he hurriedly spit out the cigar in his mouth and hurriedly put on a field helmet for himself.

"Damn, there's no 'canopy' here. ! ~ The information clearly says that there is a 'heavenly cover', do you want to kill Lao Tzu? Angrily rushing down the elevator, the sturdy Lieutenant Chebman kicked over a prison guard who was guarding here, pulled out a gun and pointed it at his head and roared. "No! ~It's not like this......" Pointed to the head at gunpoint by the fierce Lieutenant Chebman, the scrawny prison guard trembled and defended: "Sir, there is not enough energy here, so the canopy can only play a partial role......"

"Lack of energy?" Lieutenant Chebman examined the environmental data in his helmet and found that it was not devoid of oxygen in the open base, but that the oxygen content was rather scarce and filled with a large amount of sulfur. As for the temperature, it is not more than 400 degrees Celsius in the wild environment of Bruno planet, but about 60 degrees Celsius that people can barely adapt to.

"Damn the hell place."

Putting away his gun, Lieutenant Chebman gestured for the ship's soldiers to retreat. As for himself, because he had to deal with the handover affairs, he took the first mate and the orderly, and walked to the dilapidated building in the base that had been corroded by sulfuric acid rain.

Accompanied by two prison guards, Lieutenant Chebman walked into the border post-like building. Compared to the open air on the base, the environment inside the building is slightly better, at least the air here is enough for people to breathe without relying on wilderness survival helmets, and the temperature has dropped to about 40 degrees.

Taking off his helmet, Lieutenant Chebman sat down on a metal chair in a sweat, ripped off his collar and shouted hoarsely, "Damn, get me something to drink." It's hellish that there are still people paying to buy it in this place. ”

"Yes, yes. Come soon......"

The two prison guards hurriedly opened the freezer, took out the prepared water from it, and handed it to Lieutenant Chebman, who was still muttering and cursing.

'Poof! ～’

As soon as the water entered its mouth, it was sprayed out by Lieutenant Chebman.

"What the fuck is this! ~" Lieutenant Chebman looked at the yellow, yellow, green, and green liquid in the water glass, with a strange smell, and angrily overturned the metal table in front of him: "Did you two give me urine?" Damn bastards, I'm going to kill you. ”

“……”

Looking at the liquid that was instantly evaporated after being spilled on the ground by Lieutenant Chebman, the two prison guards wept and took off their old helmets: "Sir, this water is not easy for us to preserve. This place doesn't even have hydrogen, so there's no way to synthesize water, so ......"

"You ......" Lieutenant Chebman, who was drawing his gun, looked at the faces of the two prison guards in amazement, and his sallow face was full of thick sores, making Lieutenant Chebman feel as if he had seen a dried corpse from the old era.

"This is corroded when it rains sulfuric acid, sir, we didn't mean to ......" The prison guard, who had been paying attention to Lieutenant Chebman's expression, hurriedly lowered his head and covered his ugly face with his collar.

"Forget it...... It's really hard for you to stay in a hellish place like this......" Lieutenant Chebman looked away, frowned, and asked, "When is that damn merchant coming, I won't be able to stay in this hellish place for a minute." ”

"It should be ...... soon," the prison guard didn't finish speaking, and the radar in the base sounded a communication prompt for the spaceship to enter the atmosphere, "Oh? Looks like I won't have to wait too long. Lieutenant Chebman glanced at the radar, took the kettle from the orderly's hand, and drank the cow 'coo-dong'.

A few minutes later, following the route indicated in the communication, Robin's Catfish 1 transport ship arrived over the base.

Compared with the unprepared Lieutenant Chebman, Robin and the others, who came to Bruno's planet for the first time, have made sufficient preparations. They drove a maglev out of the ship's cabin and drove it directly into the garage that had been idle in this base for a long time.

"This group of businessmen with a full stomach really knows how to enjoy it." Lieutenant Chebman in the base stared at the maglev with disgust, and put on a fierce look, ready to scare the other party in order to extort some benefits from the other party.

However, when Robin stepped out of the car, Lieutenant Chebman's menacing face couldn't help but change color slightly. Unlike the pot-bellied businessman he imagined, in Robin, he clearly felt a kind of fierce temperament that only a strong man has, and that feeling is as if it is not a human being coming to him at this moment, but a fierce beast that is waiting to be devoured.

Cold sweat soaked the back of his coat in an instant, and he didn't even recover from the intense shock until Robin reached out to him and began to introduce himself.

"Sir......" The first mate beside him saw that Lieutenant Chebman was stunned for a long time, and ignored the other party, and hurriedly pushed him behind his back.

Awakened by the first mate, Lieutenant Chebman hurriedly got up and saluted: "I am Lieutenant Chebman, the chief officer of the federal C076 landing transport fleet, and I am fully responsible for the transfer of prisoners of war this time." ”

"It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Robin, President of Roche Logistics." After making a gesture to sit down, Robin took the Bruno Planet Mining Certificate from Christine's hand, as well as the certificate issued by the Othello Star Defense Department, and handed it to Lieutenant Chebman: "Lieutenant, please review these documents." ”

"Oh."

After taking the papers, Lieutenant Chebman glanced at them and signed them. At this time, at Robin's signal, Christine suddenly opened a suitcase, took out a few crystal glasses, put ice cubes in them, and poured pure rum.

'Gollum'

Attracted by the aroma of the wine, Lieutenant Chebman swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the cold wine, and even the hand that signed involuntarily stopped.

"Please take care of yourself." Robin took a sip of the wine and frowned, "This place is in such bad condition, it looks like it needs to be rebuilt." ”

Hearing Robin say, 'Please take care of yourself,' Lieutenant Chebman unceremoniously took the wine and drank it down, while Christine obediently poured him another glass.

Perhaps because of the strong contrast in treatment before and after, Lieutenant Chebman obviously had a good impression of Robin, and while handing over the list of prisoners of war to Robin, he said in a worried tone: "Who said it wasn't, look at those two prison guards, they are about to become ghosts." I said, how could you buy such a place, no matter how rich you are, you can't spend it indiscriminately. ”

"Huh...... There are valuable mines in this place, and 60,000 prisoners of war should come and help me mine instead of keeping them in prison. Moreover, if this place is rebuilt, it should still be able to live in people. Although the sulfuric acid rain here will erode quickly, I only bought the mining rights for one year, so I just need to make sure that I can use it for one year. ”

Robin's tone at the moment is very similar to that of a Federation businessman, especially the attitude of disregarding the life and death of prisoners of war, which perfectly interprets the unique mercenary posture of a Federation businessman.

"That's right......," Lieutenant Chebman took the cigar Christine had lit for him, took a deep breath, and said freely, "There are sixty thousand seven hundred and twenty-three prisoners of war in this list, and no dead bodies were found on the ship, and as for how many died after disembarking, you have to confirm for yourself." ”

“……”

Lieutenant Chipman's words made Robin's eyebrows jump unconsciously. Suppressing the anger in his heart, Robin pretended to be kind, took out a stack of cash from the suitcase, and pushed it in front of Lieutenant Chebman: "The lieutenant should have a few days off after this mission, and the money will be used to make the brothers happy." By the way, I booked a private room at the Kimberly Hotel in Las Vegas, so if you are interested, you can go and relax. ”

"Golden ...... Golden Bellley Hotel? Lieutenant Chebman sighed, his eyes burning instantly.

"That's right, maybe if you're lucky, you'll be a millionaire the next time we meet."

Lieutenant Chebman slipped the stack of cash into his pocket and laughed, "Hahaha...... Then you're welcome. ”

"That's right." As if he had suddenly thought of something, Robin covered his nose and pointed at the two prison guards standing in the corner: "Take these two unsightly monsters away for me, their appearance makes me sick." ”

"......" Lieutenant Chebman hesitated, "But ......"

Before he could refuse, the two prison guards who had been waiting for an opportunity hurriedly rushed over, grabbed his trouser leg and cried, "Sir, just take us out of here." We don't want to die here, as long as you take us out of here and leave us wherever you want. By the way, we can pay you. ”

It is well known that the prison guards at Bruno Prison are well paid. It is precisely because of the high remuneration that some people risk their lives to work in this ghost place. However, it is only after you have been here that you will know that here, money has no value at all.

And for these two prison guards, who were already insincere, Lieutenant Chebman actually had a sympathetic mentality. But when he thought of the 60,000 prisoners of war of the Republic, he was still a little uneasy.

"Fart, there are 60,000 people imprisoned here, how can there not even be a prison guard."

"Sir, you can't watch us die. There are fifty-six men in Bruno prison, but why are we the only two of us? That's because everyone else has already found a chance to leave, and they are still on the wages of prison guards, but they are happy somewhere else. If they can go, why can't we. Sir, there is no need for prison guards in this place, and no prisoner can leave this planet alive. ”

The words of the prison guard "......" made Lieutenant Chebman stunned for a moment.

"Just let them give me the warden's authority and the police number, I'm a logistics company, and I have enough security personnel under me. And ......" Robin smiled slightly, "I'm a sympathetic businessman, I can't watch two hard-working police officers die on my turf." ”

“……”

"Okay." After some hesitation, Lieutenant Chebman finally agreed to take the two guards away out of sympathy.
