The boss of CGS, Maruba Alcair, looked at the couple sitting on the sofa.
After a long while, the big-bellied boss finally shifted his gaze from the couple to Todo Mirakonan, who was standing at the side with a hint of wanting to take credit for his work.
"Todo, you can leave now! Leave this to me! "
Maruba did not give Todo too much advice. Instead, he chased him out of the office like a fly.
Then, Maruba looked at the burly man with a handlebar mustache standing beside him.
This was the captain of CGS's first team. He was also the only man in CGS who was below him, Helda Gonno.
Helda, who had been following Maruba for a long time, naturally knew what Maruba meant.
Thus, under Maruba's signal, the captain of the first squad strode past the man and woman and stood at the door like a door god.
"Sorry! Two distinguished guests. I'm afraid I can't accept your request. "
Maruba opened his mouth slowly as Helda stood at the door. At the same time, he picked up the cigar on the table and gestured to the couple.
"Why can't you accept it? Logically speaking, our price is already higher than the market price. "
The couple did not mind Maruba smoking the cigar. On the contrary, the young man who made Helda nervous asked in confusion.
In the smoke of the cigar, Maruba looked at the young man and Helda who was standing at the door with a nervous expression.
It was really rare for his capable subordinate to have such a performance.
Why?
The smoke of the cigar blurred Maruba's face. There was a hint of struggle in Maruba's eyes.
Yes.
The price offered by the couple was indeed higher than the market price.
Moreover, their request was only to take a ride on CGS's spaceship to Earth.
Other than that, they would not interfere with what CGS's spaceship would carry. They did not want to interfere.
This way, CGS's spaceship would earn them double the price for a trip to Earth.
Such a good commission was very rare in the current market.
However …
Maruba slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke and put down the cigar in his hand.
"Sorry! We also have some difficulties on our side. After all, CGS only has one spaceship. "
What was the reason for Maruba's rejection?
The couple, Ray Mingkai and Lacus, naturally knew who they were.
Before coming here, Ray Mingkai had given Lacus a general introduction of the situation in this world based on the situation between the Martian city of Chryse and the forces on Earth.
Among them, CGS, a group that was about to step onto the world stage, was naturally highlighted by Ray Mingkai.
Therefore, the moment Maruba rejected the offer, both of them already had an answer in their hearts.
"Gudelia Lana Bernstein?"
Ray Mingkai smiled. He did not give up because of Maruba's rejection.
"We naturally understand CGS's difficulties. However, we do have some urgent matters here and need to head to Earth as soon as possible. "
After a pause, Ray Mingkai seemed to have thought of something and said a name that surprised Maruba.
"Oh right! Before we came here, we met a very "respectable" person. We learned from him that CGS can help us reach Earth in a short period of time. His name is Austin. "
"Respectable person?!"
Obviously, Maruba did not understand what Ray Mingkai meant by "respectable". Especially after Ray Mingkai said that name, Maruba finally understood.
That was a "hunter" everywhere in the universe!
He was indeed "respectable".
"Cough. What did that person say to you? "
Maruba's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
Because, judging from Ray Mingkai and Lacus' words and actions, they did not seem to be related to someone like Austin.
The only possibility was that there was some conflict between the two sides, which caused Austin, a man who did not want to suffer any losses, to admit defeat.
Maruba, who felt that this speculation was more likely the more he thought about it, couldn't help but feel lucky.
Fortunately, he did not reject Ray Mingkai's request.
"Mhmm. After we resolved some misunderstandings, Sir Austin recommended CGS to us. At the same time, if CGS can complete our request, His Excellency Austin will write off the debt with CGS. "
In the next second, Lei Mingkai's words caused Maruba to stand up in shock.
"Really?"
Maruba's eyes widened. He could hardly believe it.
Austin, a "hunter" who operated on Mars and the Death Channel, was not an easy guy to get along with.
Although this guy had plenty of "goods" in his hands, every time he asked for a price, it made Maruba's heart ache. So far, there was still a large amount of money between CGS and Austin that had yet to be paid!!
"It's true."
Ray Mingkai took out the token representing Austin from his pocket.
Of course.
This was not the token that the fat guy gave to Ray Mingkai after he came back from the dead.
It was the token that Ray Mingkai found from the wreckage of the gamma-ray destroyed vehicles according to the information that Sambas gave before he died.
From the appearance, although it was damaged and distorted, it was enough for Maruba to see the person that this token represented.
"This …"
Maruba walked out from behind the desk and quickly walked to Ray Mingkai. He took the damaged and distorted token with both hands.
Looking at the damaged and distorted appearance, Maruba already believed 70% to 80% of it.
From the degree of damage, the conflict that Maruba speculated did happen.
However, this had nothing to do with Maruba at all.
This was because even if Austin's team was completely wiped out, it wouldn't affect CGS. On the contrary, this was a huge pie that fell on Maruba's head.
"This …"
After pondering for a while, Maruba finally nodded.
"Two distinguished guests. CGS will accept your request. However, we still need you to wait here for a few days. Our spaceship's routine maintenance will take at least three days to complete. "
"That's not a problem. Your Excellency Maruba, space travel is an extremely dangerous thing. It was inevitable and necessary to be fully prepared to deal with the interstellar voyage. However, I don't know … "
Before Ray Mingkai could finish, Maruba already understood what Ray Mingkai wanted to say.
"Hahaha! Two distinguished guests, please don't worry! Although there is some distance between here and Kriese, we will not neglect our two distinguished guests. Helda, we will leave these two distinguished guests to you! You must satisfy all the requests of the two esteemed guests! "
"Yes! Understood! "
Just like that, Ray Mingkai and Lux's plan to infiltrate CGS was declared a success.
Originally, other than the plan to infiltrate CGS under the guise of a commission, there was another more radical plan.
That was to use force to crush CGS's first team, second team, and even the third team that Olga and Mitsuyuki were in. This plan was to make Maruba submit to them.
However, this plan was not only radical, it was also reckless.
If Ray Mingkai was alone, perhaps this radical plan would be adopted without hesitation.
Unfortunately, Ray Mingkai now had Lux by his side.
All in all, it was a blessing to be able to get CGS under the guise of a commission.
Under Helda's lead, the two arrived at the other end of CGS.
From the cleanliness of the surrounding walls, it was indeed a place that could be used to entertain distinguished guests.
"Two distinguished guests, this is the place! Before our CGS spaceship arrives at the low orbit port, we would like to invite both of you to take a short rest here. When the time comes, we will inform you in advance. If you have any requests, you can call us through the communication phone in the room. "
Helda opened the door and stepped aside, revealing the clean room in front of Ray Mingkai and Lux.
"En. Thank you for your trouble! Now, we may need to rest for a while. But, may I know what the meal times are here? "
Ray Mingkai's gaze wandered around the room, then looked at Helda again.
"Yes! We will send someone to inform you two distinguished guests. Please rest assured! If you two distinguished guests would like some personal space, we will send someone to deliver the food. "
After a pause, Helda's eyes revealed a trace of disdain.
"After all, we don't have a cubicle for our distinguished guests to eat in peace."
Ray Mingkai could clearly see the disdain in Helda's eyes.
Without a doubt, that was a look directed at Team 3.
"Is that so? Then, I'll leave it to you. "
The door closed slowly, isolating Helda, Ray Mingkai, and Lux.
Helda stood in front of the door for a while, then looked at the room next to it, then turned and left.
Ray Mingkai, who was listening to the commotion outside, waited for a while before nodding.
"Alright! There should be no one outside. "
At the same time, State Zero's voice rang in Ray Mingkai's mind.
"There's no such thing as a mess here."
"En. How do you feel, Lux? "
Looking at Lux, who was sitting by the bed and looking around the room, Ray Mingkai sighed in relief.
"En, not bad. The people here don't seem too difficult to get along with. "
Lux nodded and recalled the scene when she was negotiating with Maruba.
"No. That's just because of our current status. "
Ray Mingkai, who was well aware of Maruba's reaction, did not think so.
"Is that so?"
Lux pondered for a while, then suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, right. Kai. That young man just now was the Absolute Seller? "
The young man that Lux mentioned should be Takaki and Ryder.
"No. They are just young soldiers under CGS. Although they are better than the Absolute Seller in name, their treatment is not much worse. Oh, right. The Absolute Seller in CGS has a red straight line on the left side of their jacket. "
"Red straight line?"
When Ray Mingkai said this, Lux suddenly remembered that when she entered CGS, she did see a few young men wearing dark green underwear with a red straight line on the left side running on the mound.
"Kai. Why don't we go out for a walk? "
— — —
Olga Izka and Bisket Griffin were urgently called to Maruba's office.
However, when they arrived at the office, Maruba did not have the intention to call them over. He only looked at them silently.
In this silence, something seemed to be rolling in Maruba's eyes.
Olga and Bisket did not dare to look at Maruba.
This was because Maruba's right-hand man, who was also the captain of the first team, Helda, was standing at the side looking at them.
If Olga and Bisket made any strange movements, they would not be able to escape a beating.
"Sigh …"
In the silence, Maruba sighed.
"The Kristina Independent Region wants to send their precious daughter to Earth. And the job of the guards is … "
Maruba's gaze was fixed on Olga.
"The task of escorting the precious daughter to Earth will be handed over to you and your third team. Olga Izka. "
When he said this, Olga and Bisket were instantly dumbfounded.
But …
This was not the end.
"Also, the next task is related to the debt that CGS owes. Olga Izka, other than escorting the young lady, your third team also needs to escort two important guests to Earth. "
"Da!"
In the midst of the sound of the lighter, Maruba lit up his cigar again.
After taking a deep puff of the cigar, he continued in the midst of the smoke.
"As long as we can successfully escort the two important guests to Earth, then not only will a large portion of our debt be written off, but we will also make a lot of money. At that time, we might be able to increase the salary of your third team. "
The news that followed made Olga and Bisket completely dumbfounded.
The vile Maruba actually said something that might increase the salary of the third team?
Even though Maruba did not say it as a promise, it was enough to make Olga and Bisket feel surprised.
"That …"
Biscat hesitated for a moment, but asked anyway.
"Excuse me, is the daughter of the representative Gudalia Lana Bernstein?"
Maruba nodded.
"Yes! That's her. The recently popular independence movement also has something to do with her. I'm afraid that's the reason for going to Earth. But, this is the business of those important people! And our CGS's business is to safely escort the young lady to Earth and complete the task. "
After a pause, Maruba's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Compared to the business of those important people, the two important guests that are related to CGS's debt are more worthy of our attention. Whether or not you can make these two distinguished guests nod their heads and promise to write off the debt of CGS depends on your ability! Olga Izka. "
Olga did not hesitate, she had no other choice.
"Yes!"
