"Let's not look at the data for now, Lin Shuang, let's briefly talk about the mission objectives!" Jiang Ling climbed up from the outer armor of the spacecraft, pinched his sweat through the exoskeleton, and then slowly picked up the remaining parts of the "mine".
"Inquiring..." Lin Shuang's cold, synthesized female voice came, "Target model, MNZ-25-b. Flight Administration registration number, EM-KY-0110-730. Main business, Earth-Moon round-trip passenger and cargo transportation. This train's serial number, 00. Current status, transporting."
Lin Shuang paused for a few seconds, then continued, "I've hacked into the Crescent's central system through your modem. Three life signals have been detected, but the life cycle system and temperature control system are offline. I've notified the Orbital Rescue Department, but I suggest you repair the spacecraft as soon as possible."
"How long will it take them to arrive?" Jiang Ling asked.
Lin Shuang replied indifferently, "Status - Application in progress. Based on my assessment of their efficiency, it will take about three days."
"Three days? How could it be so long?" Jiang Ling continued to move his hands. "Didn't they advertise that they were always prepared?"
"The 'Interstellar Passenger Transport Corporation' has obstructed this project. They have taken over the rescue work of this project in accordance with the 'High Seas Vessel Rescue Act'."
"Fuck, outsourcing ship repairs and then making a profit from the difference in bounties, how come there are capitalists like this now?" Jiang Ling cursed.
"From the perspective of human community law, their actions are not a crime. But you can copy the flight data of the 'Crescent'. We can ask them to defend themselves in this matter by triggering public supervision." Lin Shuang's emotional simulation ability is not very strong, so her voice did not change much.
"No, we can't just let this go! Let me think... help me adjust the spacecraft's orbit like this. Pay attention, make sure to consume all the fuel in the damaged booster." Jiang Ling said.
"The order has been confirmed and the route is being planned."
Jiang Ling "stood" up, tied the remaining part of the "mine" and the armor plate removed with it to a crawling robotic arm not far away, then picked up the recycled high-value waste, opened the hatch outside the spacecraft's airlock and climbed in.
The temperature and oxygen levels inside the spacecraft were extremely low, so once the air pressure stabilized, she immediately restarted the life-circulation and temperature-regulating systems, which had been physically shut down by the survivors. She then worked tirelessly, using the exoskeleton's jet propulsion system to find the command module. She didn't have time to worry about the survivors; they would soon wake up once their indicators recovered, and she knew the three of them would be fine even for a few days. The two systems they had shut down had turned the cabin into a cryogenic hibernation chamber, clearly indicating that at least one of them was a highly trained astronaut.
Jiang Ling wrote the route data sent by Lin Shuang into the flight control system and also removed the black box from the spacecraft. After all preparations were completed, she sat in the flight seat and turned on the spacecraft's internal broadcast.
"Attention all crew members, attention all crew members! Please immediately find a space handrail or solid structure nearby. The spacecraft is about to accelerate overload. I repeat, the spacecraft is about to accelerate overload!"
Then, amidst a flurry of intercom requests, she slammed the ignition button.
