Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 80 Inquiry and the Impending Pursuit_3


Before really confirming the attitude of the company higher-ups, letting Chen Ming go out for two days is actually a pretty acceptable choice.

Over at the Star Realm Government, the Star Zone Military is nothing.

If there really is any issue with the Space Station, he could also give Chen Ming a heads-up via the network.

Moreover.

The manager lifted his head and looked at Old Wu beside him.

Coincidentally, Old Wu had been slacking off a lot these past two days, after all, he had diligently worked for a dozen days since Chen Ming arrived.

Might as well give him a vacation too, let him unwind a bit, and he'll be more efficient afterward.

After weighing the pros and cons, the manager said to Chen Ming, "Alright, I will approve your leave now."

"Is this your first time going over to the Edge Star Realm government's side? How about letting Old Wu accompany you? He has experience."

"Is it that good?"

Old Wu looked quite enthusiastic after hearing the manager's words; it seemed he hadn't left the Space Station for a long time.

"That depends on whether Xiao Mu… Xiao Ming agrees."

Old Wu suddenly squeezed out a fawning smile, reminiscent of a sly merchant, staring at Chen Ming.

Chen Ming directly ignored him, but he still considered the manager's proposal.

Although he had previously interacted with various types of people, he indeed seldom interacted with people from places like the government or the Edge Star Realm where the regulations aren't that strict.

Even after being transferred to the Mining Space Station, it was still challenging to even have opportunities to meet people, let alone interact with them.

Basically, it was a routine of freezing hibernation, awakening to work, and back to hibernation.

If Old Wu were around, it would certainly make doing some things much more convenient.

Chen Ming indeed didn't mind bringing one more person along.

So he agreed.

Soon, Chen Ming and Old Wu left the manager's office and returned to the Maintenance Factory.

Upon returning, Chen Ming noticed there was a Mule Level parked there.

And at about this time, he received a message from the boss.

It stated that the ship was repaired for Chen Ming and sent over, and if there were any problems with the ship, he should look for him.

Perfect timing, since the Mule Level Chen Ming had taken earlier was still under transformation, and this ordinary Mule Level could be taken out instead.

Meanwhile, this Mule Level also helped Chen Ming by taking away the Lumin he previously brought back, as Chen Ming couldn't tamper with Dusk's ship at the Space Station.

After removing the internal partitions of the cargo hold, fitting a Frigate into one was quite easy.

After sorting that out, Chen Ming took Old Wu onboard Iron Ore No.

They wouldn't be spending most of their time on the ship during this trip, so there was no need to prepare much.

While Old Wu was looking around the Iron Ore No., he suddenly remembered a previously obvious excuse Chen Ming made and jokingly asked, "Xiao Ming, where is your captain?"

"In the captain's room, do you believe that?"

Old Wu chuckled at Chen Ming's reply and continued following Chen Ming, checking out the transformed Iron Ore No.

The crew's original planting cabins used for refreshing the supply of fresh vegetables and fruits during the long rare metal collection phases on Iron Ore No. had already been dismantled by Chen Ming.

The studio was moved there and more developed than before.

The excess space from the original living quarters was converted into a small gym, with not much change in other aspects.

When the two of them reached the front captain's quarters.

Old Wu suddenly saw Xiao Shi playing on a running wheel.

With a mini pirate captain's hat on its head, something Chen Ming had bought on a whim when buying various daily necessities out of boredom.

Xiao Shi noticed a stranger coming, stopped moving, and stared at Old Wu for a couple of seconds.

They both unconsciously blinked quickly.

Xiao Shi turned and burrowed back into the mineral pile in the captain's quarters left by Chen Ming, blocking the hole it dug with the hat.

Old Wu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

He honestly didn't expect Chen Ming's mention of a captain to be real, albeit a bit unusual in terms of species.

Old Wu wanted to take a closer look at Xiao Shi beside its mineral block, but Chen Ming pulled him back, "Stand firm, we're about to set off."

Old Wu regretfully clicked his tongue and leaned against the wall of the captain's quarters, watching Chen Ming operate on the ship's control panel.

With another Centurion and Mule, they exited the Space Station toward the edge of the Star System.

Earlier, the boss mentioned to him that Chen Ming was a Psychic and that his Spiritual Energy was certainly related to the ship.

Therefore, he wasn't surprised at all by Chen Ming controlling three ships, but he suddenly noticed an issue and asked, "Xiao Ming, isn't this heading not toward the Star Realm Government?"

Sitting in front of the control panel, Chen Ming quickly programmed the autopilot for the ships and answered, "Indeed it's not."

"Because just having these three ships running makes me a bit uneasy, so I need to fetch one more from my stash elsewhere."

"You have other ships? Where did you park them? Aren't you afraid of them being stolen?"

Chen Ming leaned back in his chair, side-eyeing the chatty Old Wu.

"Pretend I didn't say anything."

The Dark Graveyard wasn't far from the Space Station, and Chen Ming quickly arrived at his destination.

Through the porthole of Iron Ore No., he could see three ships drifting in the dark cosmic background outside.

Warrior Mod, Dawn, and Refraction that served as the Destroyer.

Refraction, Dawn, and the yet-to-be-repaired Lumin released from the Mule Level's cargo bay cannot be taken along.
