In the vast sea of ​​stars, nebulae of various colors are surging, and a huge aircraft is floating not far away.

What made Lu Lulu feel strange was that the aircraft looked very old. There were a lot of gray substances commonly seen in the universe covering it, as if it had not been taken care of for a long time.

Chang Mingyue came closer, took a look and said, "Xiaolu, do you think... the model of that aircraft is similar to ours?"

Lu Lulu nodded, thought about it, took a photo, then put on her shoes and coat and walked out.

Chang Mingyue followed immediately.

Lu Lulu went to Ta Chi's sleeping chamber.

After knocking on the door, Ta Chi came out yawning. Seeing Lu Lulu and Chang Mingyue, he frowned: "What's wrong?"

Lu Lulu motioned for him to look out the window.

Ta Chi lived alone in a sleeping cabin, so he let Lu Lulu and Chang Mingyue go in, and he opened the curtains.

When he saw the huge aircraft outside, Ta Chi was stunned, then frowned: "Return?"

Lu Lulu squeezed over, but didn't see the brand number, so she asked, "What's the return number?"

Ta Chi's face was full of confusion, and there was a solemnity that was visibly visible. He ignored Lu Lulu and Chang Mingyue, and went to the front cabin without even putting on his coat.

There are clear levels of distinction on this aircraft. For example, the company's technical miners, collectors and pilots are all in the front cabin, while temporary workers like Lu Lulu live in the rear cabin, and the living environment is very crowded.

Moreover, Ta Chi had warned them that they could not go to the front cabin without permission.

Seeing that she couldn't keep up, Lu Lulu turned her eyes and stopped near the front cabin. She threw a small object in using her sleeve as a cover.

After doing all this, Lu Lulu immediately pulled Chang Mingyue over and said, "Let's go!"

They returned to the rear cabin and knocked on the door of Kirby and the others' sleeping cabin.

Kirby, Liu Dachui, North and the uncle with a very complicated accent lived together. As soon as Lu Lulu knocked on the door, it was opened.

A snoring sound like a chainsaw came from inside, and three faces with complicated expressions appeared.

Kirby directly dragged Lu Lulu and Chang Mingyue in.

Lu Lulu was worried that the five of them would wake up the old man, but...

The five people were sitting tightly on Kirby and North's bed. Liu Dachui was sleeping on the upper bunk, but he didn't get down because there was no place for him to sit down.

"Do your two roommates snore too?"

Kirby thought that Lu Lulu and the other two came here in the middle of the night because they couldn't sleep just like the three of them.

Lu Lulu shook her head and motioned for everyone to look at the computer.

In the group of five people, Lu Lulu projected the image from the miniature camera that she had just thrown into the front cabin.

This camera was manually controlled, and Lu Lulu immediately began to operate the camera to search for the figure of Ta Chi in the front cabin.

Chang Mingyue also took this opportunity to type in the group and tell the other three people what they saw.

Finally, a muted quarrel was heard from the camera.

Lu Lulu immediately controlled the camera to roll towards the direction where the sound came from.

This is obviously the lounge for the driver and co-pilot.

There are a total of four pilots on this aircraft, taking turns to rest.

At this moment, there are more than two drivers taking turns to rest in the lounge.

Ta Chi sat on the chair with a bad expression: "Three months ago, the Regression was the pioneer and found Planet 48. It was because they confirmed that there were unknown minerals on Planet 48 that we set out."

"But can anyone explain to me what's going on with the Return? Don't think I'm blind! That aircraft was scrapped long ago! The Return never made it back to the company!"

"Since the Return has not returned to the company, why did the company send us here? And why did they tell us that the Return has returned to the company and brought news about the minerals?!"

The sound of the ruler became increasingly unbearable, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.

The driver covered his head, obviously not expecting that the Return would not be able to return to the company.

"The tower ruler."

A cold and beautiful woman in a white coat sat in the center of the lounge.

"You're too loud."

The woman's voice was indifferent, forming a sharp contrast with the expressions of the two pilots and the ruler.

Ta Chi snorted coldly: "Doctor, you know that the company concealed the fact that the Return was not able to return, right?"

The cold and beautiful woman, the doctor, folded her arms and said, "Yes."

"Why!"

Ta Chi became emotional: "There are 500 mercenaries on the Return, and even they can't go back. Aren't we here to die?!"

The doctor frowned: "Ta Chi, don't forget your identity. Mercenaries are supposed to face death and obey all orders from the company..."

"Our lives are also lives!"

Ta Chi interrupted the woman: "We are the mercenaries at the forefront, yes! But we can't die for no reason!"

"Calm down!"

The doctor's face suddenly turned cold: "Ta Chi, there are unknown minerals on Planet 48. This is indeed the news from the Return."

The co-pilot looked at the doctor with some fear: "Every aircraft of the company has a positioning system... and this location is also within the range that can be viewed by the positioning system... The company must know that the Return is stranded here..."

The pilot frowned and asked, "Since we know where the Return was stranded, why haven't they sent anyone to salvage it in more than three months?"

The four of them knew very well that since the company did not send anyone over, it meant... there was no one on the Return.

Or rather... there are no survivors left.

Ta Chi's expression became increasingly grim: "I will apply to the company for a return flight."

The doctor's mouth curled up in a mocking arc, but he didn't stop it.

Soon, Ta Chi sent an encrypted signal to the company. Lu Lulu's camera did not dare to get too close, and the five people could not see what Ta Chi sent specifically.

About half an hour later, Ta Chi took a deep breath.

The driver leaned over to take a look and his expression changed.

The doctor didn't even look at it, and asked jokingly, "What do you mean?"

Ta Chi clenched his fists: "The company said... we must go to Planet 48."

The Doctor chuckled: "What else did you say?"

Ta Chi pursed his lips and looked at the two pilots: "Didn't the company give you the specific coordinates of Star 48 before departure?"

The pilot nodded. "The company's confidentiality policy only gave us a coordinate, and said that after we get there... they would tell us the location of Star 48."

Ta Chi gritted his teeth and asked, "How far are we from the coordinates given by the company?"

The co-pilot replied: "Three more light years."

Ta Chi's face was solemn: "The company said that the coordinates they gave were the location where the Return last sent a signal to the company."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

Kirby took a breath and looked out the window at the Regression. His voice trembled a little, "No way... three light years... at least one planet away... why is the Regression here?"
