Alone In The Swamps (2)

"I want you to visit the Bravo base as my representative," Arnold informed Allen.

"Is there some emergency?" Allen asked back "It's kinda weird for you to ask something like that out of the blue."

Arnold proceeded to tell them how he had never gone to the other bases inside zone 4, after being promoted as a Section Chief like he was required to. He also told them he had planned to visit the bases himself but a lot of things happened and in the end, he got so occupied with dealing with different situations that he forgot about his plans to visit the bases.

"...and as you know, I'm still busy dealing with the swamps and stuff, and might not be able to visit the bases. So I thought, it would be better if you could visit the bases in my stead. I don't want to delay it as maybe they are in danger or some problem that they might need help with."
