"How did you respond?" Singh asked, a worried look on her face.

You're to go out there to deliver a construction frame and wait until you get word to return. Until that happens, I'm sure Captain Xu would appreciate any help you can give her construction teams."
"Understood, Commander. When do I leave?" Singh asked.
"How soon can you be ready?" Zai asked.
