I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary
# 003 Interrogation and Serena
Now, let's talk about me, a man named Takahiro Sato. Takahiro Sato, Japanese, lives in a city in Hokkaido. Age is 27 years old, single. After graduating from high school, graduated from a local technical university and started working for a local company. Dating with a woman she met online in college, but was broken because of a long-distance relationship. After employment, he was a network administrator in the company because he could use a personal computer, but he had no special knowledge, so he struggled with his work while studying. Every day when I work on my business while working on news sites, mail-order sites, even suspicious browser games and erotic sites, my colleagues of young and old are getting a virus. My hobby is games. Anyway games. It is omnivorous and can do anything for both Japanese and Western games. At one point in time, he fought on a certain FPS game, and became a single-ranker by scoring and scrambling. As expected, he was not the only one who could take first place, but at that time he was a runner-up in Japan. I think I was spending every day killing my colleagues, saying, "I'm scared." However, he has started Stella Online, where he can get tired and explore the vast universe every day. In the end, I was doing a lot of work. That's about the information I have to tell myself ... oh, and my favorite thing is carbonated drinks. I'm dying over my throat.
Well, I talked about me a bit, but what is my current situation?
"So where's the bulk of the rare metal in this shipment?" "What's on the ship is 'almost' a plunder that had been defeated and robbed of a pirate. What more could be done?"
He had been questioned by a port administration official. It was nice that the brews were neither contraband nor anything else in this colony, but the bulk of rare metals was sought. Even if you search for the source, I do not know where it is, so I have to cut it. Now I am a self-proclaimed mercenary with no affiliation. There's nothing to prove your identity. What if such a suspicious guy brought a lot of precious metal? That's suspicious. It's a suspicious explosion. The port administration officials will also be eager to interrogate.
"... I can't tell you where it's coming from." "I'm not going to wrap it up, but I'm sick of this barren exchange."
Apparently, this guy is a deliberate repetition. Are you tired of waiting for me to get some rags? Or is something needed? Or under the sleeves? Happiness? You're going to pull out something that suggests under the sleeve from here, and then use it to spoil me or threatenly push me? It's a waste of time to deal with such a situation. When he thought so, the door of the interrogation room opened without knocking, and someone came in. A young woman. You can say she's a girl. It is also a pretty beauty. Well-formed eyes, shiny blonde, red eyes, pure white military uniform with red cloak, waist with sword. Standing out there, it's like a knight, a war maiden? It seems to have a calm atmosphere, but it seems that for a moment it has a glimpse of the sharpness of a bird of prey. Apparently, it's a girl who doesn't seem to be fooled by the look and feel.
"This is Serena, why are you in such a place?" "I saw an unfamiliar ship at Hunger Bay. Is he the owner?" "Yes."
A harbor officer who suddenly began to sweat a lot gave a woman like her tablet terminal to a female soldier called Serena. And she glanced at her and turned her eyes on me.
"It's a fair amount of rare metal, but isn't it dark behind you?" "You may swear." "Does the ship have coordinate data of places that seem to be their homes? The information obtained by analyzing the data cache of the destroyed pirate ship. I was there, but I was pulled here as soon as I showed my cargo. ''
She shrugs her shoulders at the woman, claiming that she is in trouble. She steps on her, saying she will be a member of the Stellar Guard. Apparently she seemed to be higher than the port management officer, and she showed her willingness to cooperate and wondered if she could help her.
"Is there no evidence that his shipment is stolen?" "Oh, yeah, that's the case." "Isn't that good. He's offloading the shipment to this colony. "Is it okay, isn't there any problem?" "Yes, but ..." "But? Are you going to give any opinion to this me, the daughter of Marquis Hall?" "No, that ..." Speaking of which, is there a port official who recently made a hardship with the cargo of a ship that stopped at this colony and demanded a lower sleeve? "
A female soldier, called Serena, smiled at the Port Authority. A smiling port administration official shakes. I also tremble. I'm scared for some reason though I'm smiling.
"Well, I never do that!" "We get rare metals at the right price, a good self-proclaimed mercenary with a proven track record of defeating pirates, and he receives Enel for the price, and he gets that Enel. Use this in this colony. Does anyone hurt you? "" Yes, you're right! I'll proceed with the process! "
A port administration officer leaves the office and leaves the interrogation room to escape. I wonder if he actually ran away. I was left alone with a female soldier called Serena. Serena, who saw off the back of the port administration officer, turned her gaze to this.
"I'm sorry, he's a bit too loyal to his job."
I can't help it because I'm really suspicious. No activity at nearby mercenary guilds. On the contrary, there will be no trace of my ship's activity in the nearby star system. Moreover, the data of the owner name registered on the ship was broken. The biometric was definitely passed on with my data, so I managed to keep my ship from being picked up, but if I made a mistake, I was almost taken away.
"Yes, as if it was strange that you suddenly got lost from another universe. I don't know what the consequences of the accident are, and I'm honestly at a loss: I was attacked by a pirate while in turmoil, and I returned to plunder my data cache and cargo, analyzed it and We arrived at the station, and fortunately I remembered only my name and my position as a mercenary. "
We talk about ourselves interwoven with the truth. This setting was conceived while being interrogated by a port administration official. There is no doubt that it is a story, but it should be a story that can not be said to be impossible.
"I don't have a clear memory. Do you have any suspicions that you are a spy in the Belebelem?" "Is it irrational, if I'm the Belebelem?" "Is it a spy from the Beleverem Commonwealth, with a rare metal of unknown origin, riding a strange boat and trying to enter this colony directly in front of you, as a self-proclaimed mercenary with unknown status? No matter how much it stands out, if I'm the boss of the spy, I'll call it up and hit it as soon as I read the plan. "
It's not surprising to dare to go behind the scenes, but it's going to be too much.
"It's strange, I do too."
The female soldier laughed. When you laugh normally, it's so cute. I don't want to get closer because the impression of being terrible is stronger.
"Well, it's good. I'll talk to the Guard Headquarters, so please collect the prize and hand over the data cache."
Honestly bowing and expressing appreciation, she left the interrogation room with a satisfied face ... and looked back shortly before.
"You are interesting. We will make a strategy based on the information, so please participate?"
She smiles and then leaves. It wasn't scary like before, but it was a danger in some instinct. Defeating the pirate is a profitable job, but it doesn't seem like it's dangerous to get involved with her. After a short while the harbor official returned, I was finally released from the interrogation room. I was just getting hungry.
"Then, we will receive the rare metal and the price will be 250,000 Enel. Please check it."
Activate a small information terminal that looks like a smartphone, and make sure that 250,000 energy has been transferred to my terminal. The small information terminal, located in a living space behind the Krishna cockpit, is one of the most popular tools in the galaxy. It can handle communication with ships, navigation, wallets, and other functions. Many other useful things were in the storage of the living space, but this time only the information terminal and the self-defense laser gun were brought out. The laser gun had been confiscated along with the holster before entering the interrogation room, so be sure to return it.
"Isn't there anything else? If not, I'm going to the Guards Headquarters to receive the prize and go back to the boat and take a rest?" "Yes, it's okay. See you"
There is nothing that can be stuck here, so I will leave the Port Authority at last. Then headed to the Guard, which seemed to have had a woman soldier, who was called Serena, talk to her properly and was able to carry things smoothly. Prize money Pirate's prize of 190 Enel and information provision fee of 150 Enel were promptly paid. Now my money is 29,900 Enel. That's a lot!
I asked the price of this colony lightly, but it was about 5 energy for a basic meal. If you do a little luxury, 10 to 15 energy. One liter of clean drinking water is three energy. The ship's berth is said to be 150 energy per 24 hours. Hmmm, should I think about one energy 100 yen? Is the water a little expensive? The berthing fee is 150 yen per day, so it doesn't feel very expensive. Well, because it's a colony, the air costs too much, and the water should be precious. Considering that, it may be a relatively conscientious price. Well, assuming you sleep on a boat, the cost of staying in this colony is at least 15 energy for three meals per day, 12 energy for 4 liters of water, and 150 energy for berth Is it 1777 Enel? I can stay for about forty years. Well, if you stay for such a long time, you are likely to encounter another problem. It may be better to make a base where you can settle somewhere. Anyway, he had enough money to stay in his immediate life without splintering. When humans and large sums of money are in hand and no worries are made about their lives, their minds become lighter. I returned to the docked ship with a lighter step.
