Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Comfort from the Fat Boss

Yang Bo had no intention of coming out on his own. After all, he was just an ordinary resident. Hiding deep in the cargo hold of the Baisha Transport Ship perfectly fit his persona. Strolling around everywhere would make him stick out like a sore thumb; it would be weird if he wasn’t suspected!

While pondering whether anything he had done could have exposed him, he realized there were no signs of exposure and felt much more at ease. Everyone who had seen his Mecha was dead!

Yang Bo peacefully waited in the cargo hold, feeling incredibly pleased with himself. He thought, "It’s much better to have an extra identity from now on. Haha! If any bastard dares to mess with me in the future, I have two identities—the Red Earl and a Pirate Leader. I can frame them or assassinate them. Hahaha!"

Four days later.

Yang Bo was beginning to doubt whether the Pirate Battleship had ever docked with the Baisha Transport Ship when he suddenly heard a broadcast echo through the cargo hold.

"Citizens of March Star, you may come out now. We have dealt with the Pirates! You are now safe!"

Hearing this, Yang Bo didn’t show the slightest intention of leaving. After all, a broadcast was just a broadcast; who knew if it was real or a trap? Of course, Yang Bo knew it was real, but many hiding citizens wouldn’t come out just because of that.

He waited for another half a day until a beam of light suddenly flashed before his eyes.

"Yang Bo!" the plump Mr. Liu’s voice rang out simultaneously.

"Mr. Liu?" Yang Bo put on a timid, fearful expression, acting as if the light had blinded him.

Liu Zhijie had actually been aboard the Baisha Transport Ship for quite some time. The Light Brain of the Baisha Transport Ship had been under repair for a while. Once the main system of the transport cabins was activated, they could use the Baisha Transport Ship’s smart devices to locate the residents hiding inside. Liu Zhijie searched for them one by one. If a stranger came looking for them now, these survivors definitely wouldn’t trust them.

"It’s me! Everything is fine now! The Fleet has arrived! We also temporarily repaired the Light Brain in the main control room!" Liu Zhijie looked at Yang Bo’s cautious and miserable appearance, sighing inwardly. Fortunately, the young man was safe. This kid was just unlucky to have encountered such a disastrous event.

"Mr. Liu...!" Yang Bo’s voice choked up slightly. Ahem, his Disguise ability was working perfectly.

"It’s okay, it’s okay. We’re safe now!" Looking at Yang Bo cowering in the corner of this pitch-black cargo hold, and noticing some leftover scraps on the floor, the plump Mr. Liu felt a bit guilty. After all, he had run away faster than anyone else back then!

The plump Mr. Liu was riding a transport robot. These robots were designed to transport all the cargo containers out of the hold, as in this zero-gravity environment, the containers didn’t require much towing force. It functioned like a hovering flatbed trailer, allowing the robot to magnetically attach to the containers. There were a few other people on the robot with him, all subordinates of the plump Mr. Liu. Right now, no one would believe anyone who wasn’t a familiar face!

"It’s alright, it’s alright. This Pirate incident has been perfectly resolved, and a massive Alliance Fleet has arrived outside!" the plump Mr. Liu whispered, comforting the group as they walked. "We will receive a large compensation this time.

"It will be enough for everyone to buy a house and live comfortably on March Star."

By painting this rosy picture and soothing them, the plump Mr. Liu actually made everyone feel much better at the thought of compensation.

Meanwhile, the Chief Sheriff of March Star looked rather gloomy. The Pirate Leader had vanished! Even after the monitoring and detection equipment inside the Baisha Transport Ship was repaired, they couldn’t find a single trace.

However, the number of Pirates on the Baisha Transport Ship had decreased by dozens, and quite a few Pirate Mechas had also disappeared. He had no idea who had taken action and eliminated so many of them. The Chief Sheriff felt that this mysterious person was incredibly strong—at least ten times stronger than himself!

The interior of the Baisha Transport Ship only bore the remnants of battle. It was evident that the fight had been intense, complete with traces of Mecha combat. The Sheriff’s mind buzzed with confusion. Was someone piloting a Mecha on board? Unfortunately, the Baisha Transport Ship’s main system had been destroyed, so there was no record of what had happened!

Back on the Pirate Battleship, numerous fragments of Pirate Mechas had been detected! However, the Sheriff did not intend to investigate further. Since this person hadn’t revealed themselves, it meant they didn’t want to be found. What if it was someone from a mysterious secret department? Investigating could bring him trouble. Besides, all the credit currently belonged to him; if he dug deeper and found it was another department’s doing, the credit would be snatched away!

"Sheriff, please hurry. Our Fleet has an emergency mission. If it weren’t for the fact that over ten thousand citizens were stranded here, we wouldn’t have even shown up!" a cold voice rang out from the Communication Device.

"Commander, please give us another half an hour. Within half an hour, we will fully evacuate. After that, I must trouble the Commander to destroy this Baisha Transport Ship!" The Sheriff not only decided against investigating the mysterious powerhouse, but he also planned to cover up the traces. This way, his credit couldn’t be questioned by anyone else.

"Since the leader of the Pirate Gang is still missing, I suspect he might be hiding somewhere inside the Baisha Transport Ship. Furthermore, many goods on this ship have been exposed to space radiation because the cabin walls were breached. This is to prevent anyone from exploiting them," the Chief Sheriff explained his reasoning.

"Understood!" a voice replied from the other end.

"Mr. Liu, what about our luggage?" Yang Bo hurriedly asked, seeing that the plump Mr. Liu was taking them away directly.

"We can’t keep the luggage anymore. Because the Baisha Transport Ship’s cabin walls were breached, space radiation has contaminated everything. None of the cargo inside can be salvaged, including our luggage. But don’t worry, the insurance company will compensate us. Additionally, since we suffered such massive psychological trauma this time, the company that owns the Baisha Transport Ship will also pay out compensation. The government of March Star will provide an extra emotional distress compensation as well," the plump Mr. Liu stated bluntly.

"Yang Bo, once you arrive at March Star, your compensation alone will be enough to buy a house. After buying a house and paying the remaining funds, you can find a woman to have children with. The biology company will screen healthy embryos based on the sperm and eggs provided by you and your wife, then implant them into your wife’s womb to guarantee a healthy baby," the plump Mr. Liu added.

Yang Bo knew that those who failed their Genetic Evolution had certain contaminants in their genes—the consequences of injecting the Genetic Potion. Therefore, they weren’t allowed to marry and have children privately. They had to go through a biology company for genetic interference and a series of other measures to ensure a healthy embryo!

"We were really lucky this time to encounter a Fleet; otherwise, we would have been doomed!

"You guys follow them over there to change your clothes. I need to go pick up two more people. Right now, those who are hiding don’t trust anyone else!" the plump Mr. Liu said, pointing to a corridor.
