Chapter 24: The Aircraft Carrier Has Arrived (1st Update)
After Rin got off the plane, under the leadership of the personnel, he headed towards his cabin, and on the way Rin noticed that there were constantly planes whistling on the deck of the aircraft carrier and taking off with a "boom", and the service personnel on the entire aircraft carrier were still nervously scheduling the take-off and landing of the aircraft, a busy scene. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Rin was led by a crew member wearing a blue camouflage uniform, through the narrow cabin and slender cabin, to an independent cabin, this cabin covers an area of about ten square meters, there is a table, a steel hammock, a round window above the table can see the busy scene outside the window, after all, the aircraft carrier is on combat readiness duty, and there are planes constantly staying in the air to be on guard, so there is constantly the roar of planes taking off and landing from the window, although the sound insulation effect of this room is good, but, it still feels a little noisyใ
In this room, there are also power and network sockets, which makes Rin breathe a sigh of relief, after all, her meeting this time is very important, and there are a lot of documents to deal with.
"I'm sorry, the conditions are a little rudimentary, but this is already our best room, and every space on the aircraft carrier has to be arranged in the most efficient way, please forgive me. The soldier who led Rin said this when he saw Rin looking at the cabin for a long time. He is telling the truth, the aircraft carrier is inherently a combat weapon, so every space above it must be used in the most efficient way.
"It doesn't matter. Rin said with a smile, probably because the soldier had misunderstood, she wasn't dissatisfied with this room, she was just a little excited about living in the cabin of an aircraft carrier for the first time.
"Well, you have a good rest, if there is something to do, there is a closed circuit telephone next to the bed, you can call me at any time, my name is John, number 117, I am your entourage for this meeting, you can call me if you have anything. John said with a smile, John is a young boy with a flat head and short hair, blonde hair who looks sunny at 185.
"Okay, I see, I'll call you if there's something. Rin said.
"Then I'll go first. John was about to leave at this time.
"Wait, when will I be able to see the captain?" Rin suddenly remembered that she still hadn't asked about this crucial matter.
"Internet bar, I still have to wait for the captain's notice, and now the captain is busy directing the formation to block the entire sea area and re-plan the route of the merchant ships after the blockade. John replied in 1510.
"I see, so I'll be patient. Rin didn't bother John anymore, and besides, Rin was tired from changing transportation for a long time, so she wanted to take a good rest now.
After John left, Rin put his luggage directly on the table, and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
By the time Rin opened his eyes again, Rin looked at the time, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening. At this time, the phone next to Rin's bed rang, and Rin hurriedly answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"I've kept you waiting, I'm John, and the captain is going to see you, come directly to the bridge. โ
"I'll be there right away. Rin prepared a little and headed for the bridge, where there were thousands of rooms under the huge deck of the carrier, and it took Rin a long time to find the stairs to the bridge under the guidance of the soldiers.
After walking through the long staircase, Rin finally found the entrance to the bridge, and after entering Cambridge, the huge space of Cambridge was filled with rows and rows of computers, and many soldiers next to the computers were staring intently at the electronic displays, and there were several huge vertical glass screens around them, on which were real-time dynamic maps of the entire sea area. Several soldiers are constantly changing the position of the ship on the image.
Directly in front of the entire Cambridge is a ring of huge glass windows that overlook the entire deck of the aircraft carrier.
And standing in the middle of the entire bridge is a white-haired soldier staring out the window in front of him with his hands crossed, his eyes are deep, his dress is not too formal, his hands are leaning back, occasionally a soldier comes to him with a folder, he simply issues an order, the soldier gives him a salute, and then respectfully leaves, occasionally this person will issue some orders. Is this the person you want to see?
Seeing Rin come in, John, who was staring at the radar screen, quickly got up and walked to Rin's side, who was standing at the door waiting.
"Please come here. After John's lead Rin entered the captain's room, under the leadership of John, Rin came to the white-haired man's side, it seems that Rin guessed correctly, this person is the captain he wants to see.
"Captain, the messenger of the church has arrived. John stood beside the white-haired man, gave a respectful military salute, and said to Rin.
"Okay, I see, you go down, by the way, tell the chief engineer in the engine room, let him come to the bridge, I have a new order. The captain said slowly.
After receiving a new order, John saluted and went down, leaving Rin alone.
At this time, Rin was able to take a closer look at the captain, the captain did not have a beard, there were some wrinkles left by the years on his smooth face, looking at the captain's appearance, he was about fifty years old, the captain's body was thin, and he was not too tall, only half a head taller than Rin. Rin walked in and noticed, the captain holding a cigar in his mouth.
The captain slowly looked at Rin's appearance, then he took off his cigar and said slowly, "I didn't expect the messenger sent by the church to be so young and still a woman. The captain's words were very contemptuous, which made Rin feel that this captain was not easy to deal with, but she represented the entire church, and it would be too much to underestimate people if she retreated now.
"Only a narrow-minded person would look the other way, and I don't think a wise captain would do that. Rin pushed back-for-tat, since the captain postponed seeing him after getting off the plane, and booked the meeting place on the bridge, his territory instead of the conference room, Rin knew that this negotiation would not be easy, but fortunately, Rin was not afraid of verbal fighting, on the contrary, this is what Rin is good at.
Hear Rin's-for-tat reply. The captain laughed, it seemed that the people of the church were not as easy to deal with as the captain thought.
"I didn't expect a young woman to be so sharp-tongued, I can be considered to have understood. The captain snuffed out the cigar and received it in the box, his eyes were no longer contemptuous, but looked at Rin seriously, and then said: "I was rude before, and I made the messenger wait for so long, and I can't get out of it because of the urgency, so I arranged to meet here, please forgive me." The captain said apologetically.
"Where, where, the guest is as you like, it just so happened that I was tired from the journey, and I just took a break, and it would be better to meet later. Rin replied.
Where is this busy can't get out, obviously I just want to give the messenger of the church a dismount, this Rin still knows, but knowing that this is the case, Rin has to greet him with a smile, after all, everyone at the negotiation table is an actor. With a mask called hypocrisy.
Seeing that Rin was able to meet sarcasm without anger, and perfunctory without anger, the captain knew that he really underestimated the messenger of the church, so he decided to sit down and talk.
"I am the commander-in-chief of the fleet, Kerns, and the captain of this aircraft carrier, and I welcome the messengers of the Church to my ship to negotiate. Coense held out his right hand.
"I am the emissary of the church for this negotiation, Iga Rin. Rin took Coens' outstretched right hand.
Negotiations have finally begun.
