A room inside the space station. The figure of a man and a woman surrounded by crap piled up like mountains in a large room reputed to be a gymnasium at the Tailanghi school.
"Hey Taylor. I want to remove this part, can you handle it?
Face up from the pile of crap, Marl. Taro starts BISHOP as he walks toward Marl as he raises his face from the children's picture book he was reading.
"Well crypto...... yes, I will, so don't look so scared. By the way, the simple question is, why is it encrypted to bind the ship's parts anyway?
When Taro sees multiple cryptographic functions floating in the BISHOP space, he asks while decrypting them.
"Why, if you don't, it's dangerous. It could lead to a major accident if parts fall off while operating the ship."
"Oh, no, no. I know that. I'm not, and I'm talking about how it works to disassemble the hardware from the software in the first place. It's a flaw, isn't it?
"I wonder. Some military battleships and stuff seem to be happening, but isn't that basically because serviceability is more important? It would be hard to remove it if it was hardly bonded, but BISHOP won't be long."
"Hmm...... if you ask me, Rockboy would have been like new in no time. I want you to change parts. Over, Nori?
"That's the thing. If you have broken parts, repair them slowly and use them as spare when they are new. Most ships are loaded with spare parts like that because even a few accidents can kill you in space."
"I see... hey, give it a lift"
Taro ringing his fingers properly. At the same time, the part of the hull placed in front of the marl detaches from the gotri, making its internal mechanism protrude.
"As usual, it's more your brain than your BISHOP... Normally, if you ask an unlocker, it'll take you three days. I don't know if I'll ever be a thief again."
"Well, the only thing I've decided to steal is a woman's heart."
"Yes, yes, shut up, virgin."
"Get out of the way! How virginal!!
"Yes, no. Just kidding...... oh, this circuit is alive!!
When Marl removes the large chip from the removed part, he causes it to shine through the light of day.
"It's a drive aid for a large cargo ship, so it'll be a pretty good amount. Now I think I'll be able to pay you this week."
Marl looking at the dust and the chips removed. Taro smiles back so that she can follow her like that.
"Whoa, that's good... it's tough being a firm salvager, too. I have to do this plain work, or I'm gonna throw it out right away."
About half a month after Taro started living in Marr's workplace. Though it was initially the Taro that raised her chest when she heard that her job was in the salvage business of abandoned ships, contrary to expectations, the reality was mostly these plain demolition tasks.
"That's right. We've been assigned a scrap ship, so that's not how we get out of space all the time. Because the hits are huge, and most importantly, all the big ships will go towards the CORP."
"Corp? Who?
It's about the company, Mr. Taylor.
The two of them turn to the voices heard from behind the iron chips. The figure of Xiao Mei who shows up after a while trying to get over the crap.
"Thank you, Xiaomei. How's that?
At the top of Mount Crap, Xiaomei flashes the lamp.
"Yeah, it's going well, Miss Marr. The general inventory, which appears to be available for sale, has been completed. Mr. Taylor, I'll check again, do you really leave the ship's hub unsold?
"Ouch. That would be a pretty good amount if you just sold the other part, wouldn't it?
"Yes, it depends on how much you give, Mr. Taylor. Perhaps it will be enough for you to spend the rest of your life playing."
"... Yes? Huh? Shh. So much for what?
A small plum that shows a surprising taro approximate, offering a specific amount. Since Taro has been handling that ship completely coarse trash until now, I am stunned by the amount converted to the number of lunches. Marl sighs in such a tall way.
"You... I ask the other way around, aren't ancient people rich enough to have a cruiser-sized ship in their family?
To Marl's words, Taro is convinced, if you ask me. I imagine it would feel like the rich own a ship for cruising, although the values are too different from the earth to get a specific feel.
"Holy shit. Without realizing it, I'm in a position to dream of hitting someone with a bunch of bills!!?
"Come on... I don't mean to interrupt your hobby, but I'll beat you up if I do"
"Rather a reward!!
"With a wrench"
"Sorry!!
Taro to do a quick groundbreaking. I didn't understand why he needed to do the grounding himself, but for some reason he did so reflexively.
"Mr. Taylor, by the way. What are you going to do with all this money in your hands? Are you going to spend the rest of your life like a non-performing loan for a family that keeps grabbing your parents' tibia without having a goal to live? I won't stop Xiaomei."
"Let's be honest with you about that already!! You're willing to stop at that!!
"Well, I'm interested, too. Are you going to invest in it?
"I don't care if they say that all of a sudden," he said.
"I don't have the knowledge to base my appetite or anything in the first place... Ah, but there's something I'd like to do."
Two people throwing an interesting glance at Taro's words. Taro plays his hand on his chin for a while and even naturally answers.
"I want to look for Earth. That's why we have a ship."
Marl turns a sharp face to the words that pop up. And Xiao Mei, who remains silent.
"It's a very big one, too."
"It's called the market for ships. Come on, I don't know. Come on, I was just imagining it was like a super big fair. Taylor, you're a little out of expectation."
"That's annoying how you talk about it... more than that. I knew I should reconsider. You don't even know if there's a star on Earth?
Exhibition hall of the ship market present at the station. Two relaxed walkers with numerous guests as the holographs of various ships large and small are displayed.
"No, no, I do. In fact, the young man who grew up there said," No doubt about it. "
"That's also some mistake. I'm sure. The Galactic Empire has existed for at least 5,000 years, but it hasn't even been confirmed yet, has it?
"No, I don't care if they say so...... Oh, but that's it, right? You still have it in your inheritance, don't you?
"Um, what you're talking about would be the so-called human single-planetary genesis theory, but that's pretty much the realm of religion, rather than science?
You really want me to stop buying ships, and then Marl will eat you down. Taro stared at the ship on display without worrying about it, but one of them. Eyes on a single large ship with a streamlined hull.
"Oh, that's a little something. Bigger than anything. So what about this, Dr. Xiaomei"
Taro looking toward the sphere lowered to the belt. A lamp that flashes as usual.
"This is a DD-E559, a ship called Thunderbolt, isn't it, Mr. Taylor? No problem financially, but what the hell are you going to fight aboard a destroyer?
Taro often thinks into Xiao Mei's words.
"Hey Marr. That Wynd guy I fought one day. Are they everywhere?
Marl goes on to say "right" to Taro's words.
"Basically, it's distributed all over the galaxy... but if you're serious about looking for a strange planet, you definitely need to go to outer space. Then the enemy is more human than the Wind."
"Human? You mean there's a criminal?
"Uh, it's subtle whether you call me a criminal or not. The outer universe is out of the galactic empire's sphere of power, so that's basically a lawless zone over there. There's no law, so it's a hard place to call a crime, right?
"Wow, time is just too late for a century. It... but is it? If it's like a normal life, they'll find you soon."
When Taro looks up, he looks beyond the window provided on the exhibition room wall. No air exists. There are a number of stars dazzling there that can also be called infinite.
"... so many places to look will burn."
Taro knew that he was a barbarian because of his ignorance, but he didn't have any chance of winning. I remember that he lived definitely on Earth himself, the fact that he was able to come here at least. And most importantly...
"Xiaomei, when I get back, I'm going to access the neural network and do a little research on the planets of the Earth type. Isn't that a lot?
"Yeah, I got it. But you can't be sure, can you, Mr. Taylor? I think Earth type is probably a habitable planet, but this galaxy alone..."
He had a comforting side.
