Captain, your ship has exploded again.
Chapter 41 Sheryl is captured
While Zhang Xun was leisurely eating the Empress's takeout on his way back to the convoy for supplies, he was spotted by government special forces fighter jets, and the special operations personnel who rushed in pointed their guns at him.
"Uh, you can point a gun at me, but I should be able to finish this meal! That shouldn't affect you."
After glancing at the unresponsive soldiers, Zhang Xun continued eating and whispered to Natal.
"Remember to remind me when you get back to add offensive traps to the warships. The gates and those idiotic robots are unreliable."
After checking the internal monitoring system of the warship, it was discovered that the defensive robots had all been eliminated by someone using stealth methods at close range.
"Assistant Mishima, it doesn't seem appropriate to speak to a major in the New United Army like that!"
"I'm sorry, Major Zhang, but because you've been getting too close to Galaxy's spies lately, we need to take necessary security measures. Once we arrest them, you will be free."
"Oh! Is that so? Then, please remember to reimburse me for the losses on my warship, sir.
The following day, the immigrant ship was filled with reports that Sheryl was a spy and that she would be executed for espionage without trial.
I watched President Grass speaking on the news.
"It seems that Frontier is already working with Galaxy to obtain Fold Wave enhancement and blocking technology. They have a pretty good plan, but it's a pity."
"Captain, no Galaxy bio-terminal has been found on the immigrant ship."
"Looks like there are quite a few old foxes among them!"
Just as Natal was finalizing their plans, Orchid came knocking on their door.
"Captain Zhang Xun, I need your help. Could you take me to see Sheryl?"
Looking at the orchid, who was mustering her courage to be strong, I patted her head.
"Come on, I'll take you there. I want to see if I, a major in the new unified army, am still any good!"
Zhang Xun then went to the changing room, put on his enhanced power suit and military uniform, and hid his personal weapons.
"Let's go, let's see who dares to stop us."
They arrived at the prison island by boat and met the visiting officer.
Whom do you want to see?
"Sheryl Nome".
Looking at Lan Hua's slightly hurried expression after she mentioned the name of the person visiting her in prison.
"No, she's a death row inmate and can't be visited!"
The manager looked at the orchid with a wicked smile, and Zhang Xun stepped forward to block the other party's view.
"Major Zhang Xun of the New Unified Army is planning to bring men to visit Sherry in prison. Why are you stopping him?"
As he spoke, the rectangular machine that followed unfolded, and two round Destroyer robots emerged and aimed at each other.
"This is bulletproof glass!"
"I know, but the two little things behind me use energy guns. They can melt bulletproof glass like a cake. Trust me."
"Wait a moment! I need to ask my superiors!"
"Go ahead! Your smile is even more irritating than mine. How dare you provoke others like that?"
After waiting for 15 minutes, I was told that I was allowed to visit the prison, but I could not bring a gun inside.
"Captain Zhang Xun, may I meet with Sister Sherry alone? I have some questions I'd like to ask her."
Looking at the orchid with its head bowed, he nodded speechlessly.
"Sure! Who's that over there? Never mind, I don't want to know. Just tell the higher-ups I want to inspect the prison! The kind with guns!"
Seeing that he couldn't afford to offend them, the other party quickly went back to ask for instructions and returned shortly afterward.
"Yes, but you can only come out after the prison visitation period ends."
"Tch, he was so bold when he had his men point guns at me, but now he's worried about me."
After parting ways with Lan Hua, Zhang Xun went into the prison to see where Shirley lived and what the environment was like.
"Hey, where did this girl come from? Does she want to share a room with my sister?"
Upon entering the women's prison ward, due to space constraints, the prison separates death row inmates from other minor and serious offenders by high and low floors, with the death row inmates' cells on the top floor.
The men's and women's prisons are very close to each other, separated only by a partition wall.
Standing in the middle of the women's prison cell, I looked at the prisoners and guards on both sides.
"Greetings, everyone! I am a lieutenant commander, the captain of a special warship dispatched by the New Unified Army. I am here to meet Sheryl Nome, since I am her suitor. Please do not be nervous."
"As for whether she is a spy, I am negotiating with President Glass. It's just a matter of cost and time."
"I see that your living conditions are not very good, so I plan to pay for each of you to have a dinner at the Queen's Restaurant. I hope that my Queen will receive some preferential treatment during her stay here."
"Major! This is against the rules!"
Zhang Xun pulled out the pistol he had hidden on his person and pointed it at the prison guard.
“Your rules are for others; now I’m going to use my rules! If you can’t make the decision, then go talk to someone who can.”
The prison guards then ran to report the incident.
Before I even got back, I heard the sound of a large aircraft outside.
A team of combat robots, carrying a large amount of food and a set of personal necessities, violently cut open the outer isolation door to distribute the food and change the supplies in Sherry's cell.
"This is a small reward for everyone's kindness to Sheryl, please don't be shy."
At that moment, Mishima's communication came in.
"Major Zhang Xun, you can tell me if you need anything. There's no need for such a big fuss."
"You can still talk! I thought you liked this kind of thing!"
Mishima fell silent, speechless.
"Let's not talk about anything else. Do you have time after dinner? I'm planning to talk to you about Sheryl's matter, about some technologies that I have that you might be interested in."
"We can meet in my private meeting room after dinner."
Seeing that things were almost done, Zhang Xun waved his hand and all the robots withdrew in an orderly manner.
After meeting up with Lan Hua, he gave her a small communicator and told her not to make a fuss.
Upon returning to the USS John Warden, Zhang Xun contacted Lan Hua and saw the group of people on the SMS ship.
"It seems everyone is ready!"
"Zhang Xun, what are you going to do?"
"Don't use that questioning tone, Art, you're not qualified!"
"I put some things in Sheryl's new mattress."
"It will only appear when she lies down; a nano-therapeutic capsule has a positioning function and a single-person life bladder."
“I will make a deal with Mishima tonight, but his goal is to completely control Vajra. I will disperse his defenses, and the task of rescuing Sheryl will be left to you.”
"why?"
Looking at Orchid and Art, who both said the same thing at the same time.
"What do you mean 'why'? I want Shirley to be the diva of the John Warden. Why all the 'whys'? I'm happy to do it, you know?"
Sitting on the table in prison, using the composition book Zhang Xun had brought in, Shirley started coughing after a short while. Finally, unable to hold on any longer, she collapsed onto the bed, looking at the composition book in her hand and smiling slightly as if she had thought of something.
At this moment, Sherry, who was lying on the bed, noticed something moving behind her and turned to see a spherical object appear.
Somewhat surprised that it hadn't been discovered during the prison guards' inspection, Sherry curiously reached out and touched the ball. Inside the automatically unfolding ball were two items and a note.
Your Majesty, here is a nanomachine therapy pill with positioning function that can be swallowed directly. The larger one is a personal life-saving bag that will envelop the user when squeezed, allowing them to survive in outer space for a certain period of time. Please carry it with you. Zhang Xun presents it here.
