The commander was a little surprised

The commander looked at the eleven men in a bit of surprise, six had died in the last few days of siege, otherwise there would have been seventeen here. Only seventeen people arrived in a small scoutship and almost wiped out the entire biodome. Looking at these people piled up in a small room, can anyone guess how strong they are, how disciplined, how sincere they are for their ideals? Can such a rebel group ever be completely defeated?

The commander took a breath and asked, who is your leader?

The people didn't answer his question, just stared at him with a kind of thoughtless eyes. Commander said, I have asked you a question, you have to answer this question.

A middle-aged man, with a stubble on his face, ink under his eyes, rubbing the skin of his cheeks mercilessly, spat on the floor and said, Don't waste time. Do whatever you want with us.

If you ask me what I want to do, what do I say?

The people stared blankly at his face, making no reply. The commander then said to himself, I will say that I want to release all of you. To be honest, I want to have a meal with you all before I leave. Pure barley bread, spiced roasted pheasant meat, grape juice-

The middle-aged man said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense." Do what you want with us. If you want to kill, kill him, let Afa Chuke.

The commander muttered, "Killing is the easiest, easy for you, easy for us." But so easy to kill someone? May the six of you die

And in between it is placed in the kyogenic chamber. They will also be contacted. I left you, every neuron in your brain will be seen in turn and what is there! The commander took a breath and said, "The matter is not in my hands." If it were up to me I would let you all go. Before leaving, I would have given you all a chance to take a bath in warm scented water. After taking a bath, you should wear polymer clothes.

The middle-aged man said fiercely, "Don't talk nonsense." Your nonsense is making me want to vomit.

The commander shook his head, saying, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry that even my most sincere words seem like nonsense to you! Not only does it sound ridiculous, it makes you want to vomit. Anyway, I'll say no more then. There are special forces to speak to you, to speak out of your mouth. They will say. But I warn you in advance, you will not like their method. Don't like it at all.

The commander left the small room and stood by the door, turning his head towards the people who were sitting in piles and said, I know you are very upset to hear my words, but I must say, you have put up a very good fight. I am impressed. It is unbelievable that such an operation can be carried out with so few fighters.

The people sitting in a heap on the floor of the small room said nothing. The commander glanced at all of them and looked at a young girl sitting in the corner, said, I still can't believe it, girl, were you fighting too?

The girl was looking ahead, hearing the commander's words, turned to look at him, said, "Did you ask me something?"

yes I'm curious—did you actually fight?

yes I did

The commander shook his head and said, what a surprise. You don't look like you can fight. You look like a thinker, a scientist or something. Someone your age is supposed to be doing epistemological research now and you're not—

The girl laughed and said, "How do you know I don't research science?" I have a model on artificial intelligence. I will do a mathematical analysis of it when I have some time. To be honest, that's what I was thinking about when

You spoiled my attention.

The middle-aged man with a bushy beard snorted and spat a little on the floor and said, "Our Raina Pole is a scientist." 100% pure science.

The commander looked at the middle-aged man once, then looked at the younger girl, asked, is your name Rayna?

The girl nodded, said yes.

That means you won't give any information about yourself, isn't it true? You mentioned your name, what you researched -

If you want, I can tell you what my favorite food is, what is my favorite symphony, what prime number is the biggest right now. But actually we don't want to talk about them. Among the six who died was a very dear friend of mine.

The Commander took a breath, Bal, I know. You won't believe me, but I say it anyway. I'm so sorry Veena, I'm so sorry.

The people sitting in a heap on the floor did not say anything, only the middle-aged man snorted again and spat on the floor.Raina was listening and looking in a different way, this time she turned her head and looked at the middle-aged man and said in a low voice, this is a very bad habit of yours, don't spit on the floor like that.

OK, I won't drop it. He spat on the floor again without realizing it.
