Something Fishy

Wilma approached Vivian. "Is there a shortage of stock?"

"No, it's not about that," said Vivian. "Just take a look!" she pointed to a mysterious door that wouldn't open. "You know what room is behind this door?"

Wilma looked at the door that Vivian was referring to, "HR-17?" she said while looking at the door, then shook her head.

"I've tried to enter the standard code many times, but this door still won't open," Vivian looked back at the C-Pad screen in her hand. "Also, there is no information in the C-Pad data regarding this HR-17 door. This is so weird…"

"I'll tell you what, you wait here!" Wilma said, she stepped towards the big door. "I will look for Indra or Jennie. Maybe they both know something about the room beyond that door."

"All right, I guess," Vivian nodded.

Wilma left Vivian to meet Indra and Jennie. While waiting, Vivian again tried to find information about the door with the code number HR-17 in front of her.

"This is really weird!" Vivian muttered to herself. She still could not find any information about the door.

But maybe it will be answered soon because she sees Wilma has returned with Indra and Jennie.

"Hi, Jen," said Vivian after the three of them were near her. "Indra."

Indra immediately burst forward, standing directly in front of the door numbered HR-17. Examine the shape of the door itself. Every part of the door become Indra's attention.

Likewise with Jenny. This one girl was standing on Indra's left, both of them were checking the door. Jennie also tried to enter a few digits on the device in front of her.

"I don't think that's going to work, Jen," Vivian said. "I've tried many times. Well, unless you have a special code we don't know about."

Jenny looked a little annoyed. "Damn door!" she said as she banged on the door.

Indra laughed in response to Jennie's attitude. "All right, that's enough…" he said while touching Jennie's shoulder. "Just be patient, Jen. You can break that door, you know that, right? What if you make it can't open at all?"

"This is ridiculous!" said Jenny. "Why didn't we know about this one door before?"

"Well," Indra smiled looking at Jennie's sullen face. "That's because all this time we haven't really checked this second storage room, I guess."

"Damn it!" Jenny sighed weakly. "You are right. We spend more time in front of screens. Ridiculous!"

"Never mind," Indra rubbed Jennie's back. "There's no need to be so upset. After all, maybe that fat lord has deliberately kept this room a secret from all of us."

"I thought so too," said Vivian.

"Yup! It makes more sense," said Wilma too.

Once again Indra looked at the door of the HR-17 before he looked up at the ceiling, then operated the C-Pad in his hand.

"Hyker, can you hear me?"

Indra was pretty sure that this second storage room was also planted with an intercom although he didn't know which corner of the wall it was from.

Two seconds later, Hyker's voice echoed through the room. The last room of the two large rooms in the SC45 spacecraft is intended as a storage for food, drinks, and other important items to support the lives of its passengers.

"What is it, Indra?" asked Hyker. "You need something?"

"My partner and I are in the second storage room," said Indra. "Can you see us?"

In the cockpit, Hyker laughed softly in his driver's seat shaking his head as he stared at the big screen above. Indra's question just now sounded very ridiculous to him.

Of course, Hyker could easily see the position where Indra and the three girls were with him through the large monitor above. Everyone on board the SC45 spacecraft was detected on the screen.

"Are you kidding me or what?"

"Just answer me!" said Indra.

"Yeah, yeah," Hyker replied. "I can see you guys. And then?"

"Good, if that's the case," Indra smiled broadly. "Is Captain there now?"

"No, Captain is in his room. What is it?"

Hyker noticed a red dot with a small bar reading: Dharma, on the big screen above. The red dot is with two other red dots. It's just that the other two red dots are without names. There is only an explanation of the period three times and ends with a question mark on each of its bars.

"They need to activate Aios," Hyker muttered half inaudibly. Or at least, upgrading the data to the aircraft's master computer, so that everyone aboard the plane can be better monitored.

"Could you connect me to the Captain?"

Again, Hyker shook his head in a smile at Indra's request.

"Of course, man," Hyker replied. "Why do you ask me to do such trivial things?"

"You mind? I have something to ask the captain."

"Well, whatever!"

Hyker then used the gadget in his left hand, activating the virtual screen. Then connect the gadget to the big screen above. He touched the blue graph which is a visual representation of the captain's room.

"Cap," Hyker called. "You hear me?"

"What is it?" asked Captain Dharma who was still joking with his wife and daughter.

"Indra requires you. In a moment, I will connect you with Indra," said Hyker, and then he spoke to Indra in the storage room. "Indra?"

"Yo?" said Indra.

"You have already connected with Captain. Go ahead!"

"Thanks, man," said Indra. "Cap?"

"What's wrong, Indra?" asked Captain Dharma. "You need something from me?"

"Can you come to the second storage room, please?"

"Is something not going well there?"

"No, it's not like that," said Indra. "It's just there's one thing that's a little fishy here, Cap."

"All right then," replied the captain. "I'm going there now."

"All right, Cap."

Captain Dharma then removed his arms from his daughter, the little girl moved into her mother's arms.

"I need to see Indra," said Captain Dharma to Yuan xi.

"I know," Yuan Xi smiled as she gently touched her husband's cheek.

Captain Dharma turned to his daughter. "Stay with your mom, okay, sweetheart?"

"Okay, Dad," Xian nodded.

Captain Dharma kissed his daughter's forehead, then kissed his wife's lips. He gave a wink signal to his wife that after this he wanted to have fun just with his wife.

Yuan Xi nodded again, smiling again with a blush on her face.

"I will put Xian to sleep," Yuan Xi whispered.

"That's great," Captain Dharma smiled.

After that, Captain Dharma came out of his room, straight to the storage room.
