Shadow Slave
Chapter 990
Sunny had no particular reason for this visit, apart from simply wanting to check on how the old man had settled in. From his first impression, the dormitory apartment was too small and bare-bones for someone of Professor Obel's stature.
There were five compact bedrooms connected to a shared living room, kitchen, and bathroom, with three of the bedrooms occupied by other people. He could hear a child's voice behind one door, which meant that there might have been entire families of refugees living here. In that regard, maybe the fact that the Professor and Beth each received an entire room for themselves was already a privilege.
'Still... what the hell...'
Maybe he should not have been surprised. Professor Obel was indeed a distinguished scientist who had made great contributions to humanity, but the Antarctic Center was the administrative center of the whole Quadrant. With two hundred million people concentrated in Falcon Scott, there must have been a whole lot of distinguished people waiting for their turn to be evacuated.
Beth led him to the kitchen and put a kettle on the stove. Now that they were not busy trying to keep the caravan from falling apart, Sunny noticed that the young woman looked a bit haggard in comparison to how she had been at LO49.
There were dark circles under her eyes, a slight uncertainty to her movements, and a grim slant to her brow. Beth's temper, however, had not changed one bit.
"Tell me straight... is the wall going to hold?"
Sunny lingered for a bit, stumped by the frank question.
"How should I know? Sure, it is going to hold... until it doesn't."
Beth scoffed, pouring synthetic tea into three cheap alloy cups.
"And yet you seem to be terribly calm."
Sunny scratched the back of his head in confusion.
"Do I seem calm? Well, I guess I am. I mean, what's the worst that can happen?"
The young woman stared at him with outrage.
"Death! You can die!"
