“How far is that gas giant Conrad, do you recon it is why the ‘Never Say Die’ was so far out?”
“If a bandit or raider has set up shop in this system, the gas giant would be a good spot to hang out and as we are going to need fuel in any case, it would be a shame to pass up an opportunity to try out the new weapons and sensors the navy have supplied.”
“First things first though, Shui, disembark the passengers please, you may have to organise transport for them. Conrad, see what system information is available, and find out what you can about recent flights, in and out. I’m going to see if I can find a bier for this cargo, and pick up any rumours while I’m ashore, Yasmin, would you Boom Boom, the Major and Surprise come with me please,”
“Tylen, your on security, and as this place is about as secure as a not very secure place, extra vigilance.”
“Keep your eyes and ears open people, any little thing might be useful, and remember that if this guy is a permanent resident here, he probably has his own people on the ground, looking for likely targets so, don’t let on that we are anything other than a simple trader, just passing through, OK”
“Once we are done we’ll compare notes and decide what, if anything, we can do.”
Jago thumbs the intercom to the engine room, “Saski, there’s no fuel here and we’ll be dipping the gas giant as soon as the passengers and cargo are unloaded, is there anything you need while I ashore?”
