"By the way, Xia Ye, have you seen that hero?"

Since the threat on the outside had been eliminated, Aarons also got a rare rest time.

However, rather than saying it was a rest, it was more because the reconstruction of the mothership would take some time to complete. Even if he had planned what to do, he would not be able to act as he wished without sufficient combat power.

So during this period of time, he could only sit in the office and chat with Xia Ye during the day.

"You mean the man from a thousand years ago? I only met him two or three times... I didn't trust his words at the time, so I didn't leave with him."

"Oh... then do you know what Ms. Yayin thinks of him?"

"No, I have never heard her talk about that hero since I met her. Why do you ask this question?"

Perhaps the dream he had a few days ago was just a remnant of his spirit, some fragments of memories - Aarons shook his head and did not mention the somewhat regrettable ending he saw in his dream.

After all, one person has left and one person has died. Even if there are any regrets, there is no chance to make up for them.

"Just a little curious, nothing more."

"Then I want to report something to you - although the problem is not particularly serious, the old lady Jiang Yue has complained to me several times."

What else can happen at this time?

Aarons raised his eyebrows but didn't comment immediately.

"The workers who are in charge of the mothership reconstruction project said that recently when they were working on the ship, they occasionally saw something similar... According to your world, it is probably called a 'ghost'."

"What? Is it haunted?"

"Although there have been many reports, I have already asked Miss Zhuying and Miss Yalu to check it out, and Her Royal Highness the Princess and the old woman also personally checked there, but no one found anything abnormal."

This was a bit unexpected - but Aarons thought he probably knew the truth.

"I guess it's the residual mental echo of the Mist Demon Star. After all, the main structure of the entire ship is a transformation of her real body, so it's normal to have some mental impact."

"Your explanation may indeed make sense, because so far the workers have only witnessed some kind of phantom, and there have been no reports of any victims."

Since it was not a big deal, Aarons was too lazy to waste his energy on such an issue.

However, Xia Ye obviously had some ideas - after hesitating for a while, she expressed her thoughts.

"Because I don't have much work to do these days, I would like to ask you to temporarily stay at the construction site to ensure the personal safety of those involved in the project."

"That doesn't matter. I don't have anything to do right now anyway, and Qianyun can handle the paperwork. I have no objection if you want to go for a change of mood."

There was no harm in this incident, so Aarons thought that Xia Ye might just be bored.

After all, if the women at home have nothing to do, they will soon turn their attention to him.

"I understand. Then I will let Miss Qianyun take over my job temporarily. In addition, Her Royal Highness the Princess took Miss Karin to inspect other cities today, and they probably won't be back for a day or two."

"Oh, there's nothing to worry about anyway."

Of course, those two people were the culprits for his back pain these days - after all, the others still had something to do, but those two were really bored.

"Then I'll go first, Master."

After watching his chief steward walk out of the office with elegant steps, Aarons breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in the soft chair.

During this rare time when there are no troubles, he will of course take a good rest.

……

"Are you sure there's nothing else in there? There have been thirteen sightings reported so far. Even if it's harmless, we need to pay attention to it."

In the dock converted from the original airport, Jiang Yue was directing the workers to move batch after batch of supplies into the mothership's cabin - due to the special nature of the ship's structure, most foreign materials only needed to be stuffed into special processing slots to be automatically manufactured into corresponding equipment.

Of course, to carry out such delicate manufacturing and processing, Zhuying and Yalu need to stay on board to control the hull.

"But Miss Spider and Miss Manta Ray were on the boat the whole time. They didn't notice anything. And I even asked the princess to come down and check yesterday, but she didn't feel anything either."

Of course Xia Ye knew that what Jiang Yue said was true, but she still felt a little uneasy.

"That won't do. After all, this thing will fly into the sky in the future. If you discover the problem after you ride it, it will be dangerous."

"But we really didn't find anything, so Miss Yang, you decide what to do."

"I have already applied to the young master. I will stay here for the next few days, and my work will be temporarily handled by Miss Qianyun."

Because Xia Ye's attitude was very serious, the sage did not object too much.

Taking the engineering needs into consideration, Jiang Yue simply set up a separate room for Xia Ye next to the captain's room - according to her, Xia Ye could choose to live here when he works, so that he could be closer to Aarons.

Of course, this "good intention" also attracted Xia Ye's disdain.

"According to the workers who saw the phantom before, they were carrying goods in and were resting somewhere when they suddenly saw a figure flashing in the corridor or somewhere else... but when they chased after it, they found nothing."

"Maybe the power of the Mist Demon Star still remains. Miss Manta Ray also said so."

"Even if that's true, I have to confirm the truth of this statement first. You should arrange the transportation normally for the next few days. If anyone sees the phantom again, immediately suspend all work."

Doing this actually wastes a lot of time, but Jiang Yue didn't want to compete with Xia Ye over this matter, so she finally accepted the proposal.

After all, Aarons' safety is indeed the most important thing, and it is reasonable to be cautious no matter how much.

"Well, if there really is a problem, let's do another comprehensive investigation together."

……

Although Jiang Yue didn't think there was really anything wrong here, the facts soon gave her a heavy blow.

Two days later, another worker saw the phantom on the ship - and Xia Ye, who stayed on the ship, happened to meet him who tried to escape out of fear.

"There must be something wrong on this ship - Her Royal Highness the Princess and Miss Karin have just returned. I suggest that we conduct a comprehensive investigation immediately!"

Now that a problem like this has occurred, there is really no way to ignore it anymore.
