Horizon Before Sunrise Chapter 8

When the two door gods stood beside him, Mop felt that he couldn't move his hands and feet freely. He even had to be very careful when he felt dizzy and nauseous, for fear of offending them, especially Miles.

But when he saw them leave him behind and walk to the round door, he felt a little lost.

Mop tried to hold back for a moment, but couldn't help it, and staggered over to the two of them holding the little mop.

Asher heard the hurried footsteps, raised his eyebrows and turned around: "Is a ghost chasing you?" It was only about six or seven meters away, why was it so urgent?

Of course there were no real ghosts, but the dragon pillar was the only light source in the entire fragment, and it emitted a dark blue fluorescent light. Even the most beautiful people would look spooky under its reflection.

Even staring at the little mop's face for more than five seconds made him feel a little scared.

But it's fine to tell this to others, but to tell it to someone like Asher, it's like he's just putting it on his lips for him to be mean to. So Mop raised his chin stubbornly and said, "Nothing, I just want to say that part of this space prison can be regarded as a kind of intelligent aircraft in a broad sense, within my professional scope. The door of this kind of aircraft is very particular to open, especially---"

Before he could finish his words, Asher once again skillfully pressed a button by the door.

The two metal covers automatically slid open, revealing the scanner hidden inside.

It was just a little more complicated this time, as it was more than just an iris scan. The red light scanned Chus from head to toe, and the screen quickly constructed a bone pattern and DNA sequence. After a string of values quickly skipped, two lines of text popped up on the screen:

Certification Passed

Qualified

Mop: "...just ignore me."

"Thank you for your kindness, but this happens to be within my authority." Asher shrugged.

Mop was disheartened. He thought that since he could not be used for any real purpose for the time being, he could only be a burden. "What would be in here? Is there any food? God knows, I am so hungry that I want to eat people."

Miles suddenly turned around and smiled at him: "What a coincidence, me too."

"......" The mop was startled.

Although this guy looks handsome when he smiles, he is scarier than when he has a straight face!

Even though the intelligent system of this disc is a bit retarded, it is still part of the space prison. The number of doors here is much more than any other, and the process of opening the door is much more complicated.

The metal was humming non-stop, and two floors had been opened while they were talking.

Saer was very confident about what he had retrieved. He put one hand in his pocket and pointed at the metal door on the third floor, saying, "Captain Chu, who has a high authority, will soon see a dining table of fresh food, fine wine, and even cigars. Shouldn't you thank me?"

Of course, he had reasons for saying this.

Asher could draw the design of the entire space prison with his eyes closed. The situation was chaotic before, and he was a little slow to react. Now that he had calmed down, he matched the disc with the design in his mind and remembered it.

In this disc, on the east side is a row of special detention cells, outside is the No. 2 monitoring center, and on the west side is the prison guard duty room and No. 4 fuel warehouse. None of these are important to Asher at this moment. The most important thing is that in the middle of this disc is a restaurant.

Restaurant, what a wonderful word.

As it stands now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is heaven.

From the moment he stepped out of the freezing capsule, Chus was so hungry that he wanted to eat someone. But the big and small mops made him unable to eat, and he was afraid of indigestion.

Now he said that he wanted to search for something useful, but in fact it was all nonsense. The most important thing was to fill his stomach first.

The fifth-floor metal door finally opened completely.

If nothing unexpected happened, they would see the corridor of the prison guard duty room, and there might be confused prison guards inside who were confused about the situation. However, according to normal procedures, they should have evacuated urgently before the disk was blasted off.

However, after Asher stepped into the door, he frowned tightly.

The position he holds requires him to deal with various dangers all year round, and he is extremely sensitive to certain things - there is something wrong with this corridor!

The eight prison guard lounges in a row were all closed, even the small windows on top were tightly shut. Chus's eyes swept over the doors one by one, but he didn't stop. He tried to hold one of the door handles and vaguely heard a low-pitched electronic sound from inside.

This is the reaction that only occurs when being locked by the intelligent system.

"Why is it so dark? I thought it would be brightly lit. Wasn't this space in use before it was blown down?" Mop's voice was full of confusion, and his throat was a little tight.

Miles followed behind Asher, and seemed to be very interested in where the prison guards lived. He looked up and down at each door, "Are they all locked? What a pity! I was planning to use a rest room to take a shower."

When Asher was in this kind of environment, his attention would unconsciously become tense, capturing every tiny movement around him, but ignoring the sound of talking.

Especially for someone like Miles who has no nutrition at all and is particularly lacking, it is better to filter it out directly.

The eight prison guard lounges soon fell behind them, and Chus, who was leading the way, walked to the end of the corridor. As long as he turned the corner and passed through a partition door, he would see the restaurant.

Asher didn't rush to open the partition door. He stood at the top of the corridor and looked around.

"What should we do now?" Mop asked when he saw that Chus didn't take a step.

Asher said: "Eat."

Mop was stunned: "But this place is a bit strange, don't we need to check it first to make sure it is safe?"

Asher withdrew his gaze from the passages behind him: "Let's eat first."

Mop: "......"Okay, I see you are also very hungry.

In fact, while speaking, Asher had already looked at several places behind him where people might be hiding, and they were all empty, at least there was no immediate threat.

"Except for the unstoppable danger of 'being blown to pieces by artillery fire in the next second', nothing can stop our Commander Chu from eating." Miles finished lazily, tilted his upper body, and pushed open the partition door to the restaurant for him with his arm over Asher, "right, dear?"

This partition door was not locked and could be opened with a push.

It hit the wall with such force that the noise it made startled everyone.

Then a series of "ding-ling-dang" sounds were heard at the same time, just like the dust that was suddenly raised when an old wooden box was pushed open, making a mess.

The restaurant that Asher imagined in his mind should be empty. The tables and chairs might have been knocked askew and messy during the emergency evacuation, and there might even be slippers dropped on the ground by some impatient and confused person.

But the wall of self-service food behind the bar should be intact.

Okay, maybe a few plates will get knocked over.

But no matter what, it will never be like this------

The dining tables and chairs were stacked up against the wall, leaving a large empty space in the middle filled with cages, each with a person lying like a dead dog. They had black and gold rings on their arms, were covered in dirt, and had messy hair sticking out of the cage, like a chicken with its feathers blown off.

You can tell from their appearance that they have been locked in cages for quite some time.

When they suddenly saw the partition door was opened, they immediately pretended to be dead and used their handcuffs and leg shackles to desperately knock on the smart retractable metal bars on the cage.

"Oh------" Miles sniffed, "I didn't know when the restaurant was turned into a chicken farm. There are a lot of ingredients, but they are a bit rotten."

The people in the cages were stunned at first, but after hearing what he said, they became even more excited and banged the cages loudly.

Asher first selectively ignored these cages that shouldn't be here, and instead glanced at the shelf behind the bar where the food was supposed to be placed.

As a result, I saw that it was completely empty. Not only was there no fresh food, there was not even any grass or leaves!

Commander Chu, who was extremely hungry, felt dizzy and his mood suddenly became bad.

He frowned, his face darkened, and he had to look back at the cages and said, "I have two questions."

Sae raised his eyebrows: "Speak."

Truth: "First, what on earth happened when you escaped from prison? How did the space prison become like this? Second, how do we divide this... rotten meat? 50-50?"

The clinking sound in the cage suddenly stopped, and the rotten meat fell into deathly silence.

Mop: "......" Sir, you don't act like a commander at all now, you know that. You are just like the second terrorist!
