What Do You Mean I'm The Captain Of A Yandere Mercenary Company?

Chapter 177 We're Back At Theeve

I completed the landing sequence of my ship in the docking bay, officially arriving at Theeve station once again.

It actually hasn't been that long since we left here but after all that happened, it certainly felt like a pretty long time.

We helped him unload his stuff from my ship and we finally went our separate ways, concluding our business with him.

Also, just saying... That guy lost about ten thousand Credits after our Poker game.

That's why he currently has a sulky look etched on his face right now. I guess it's almost like he spent ten thousand Credits to hire us to give him a ride here, which is quite a rip off when you take the fact that he only had his own food to eat into consideration during the trip as well.

At least sulking was the only thing he did so there wasn't any trouble between all of us.

We bade our final farewells and we went our separate ways with Bimic, the Merc going off to search for a place where he could stay to wait for his pickup.@@@@

Now that we were left to our own devices again... I wondered what we should do now?

I turned to my two companions to ask that specific question.

Amber grinned, "We can always fly out to that Pleasure Station right now~"

I rolled my eyes, "I don't mind but... At least drop by Mara's place first, don't you think? Anyway, I made some food for her already so let's head over there first."

"You're really spoiling her a lot, Tera. Are you really trying to buy her over with your food?"

"She's been giving us information for free when she could be charging us money for it so I would like to return the favour at least."

"Oh, trust me when I say that what you've given her is more than what she's given you, Tera. Why else do you think that she's willing to give you the information for free?"

"Maybe as payment for taking you in?"

"Oh, now that you mention it, that could be true too. Ehehehe~"

At least she seems happy about that fact...

Lea then turned to me, "Should I be concerned, Captain?"

"Eh? Concerned? Concerned about what?" I asked.

"Concerned that you may be attacked because of me."

I blinked at her, "Why would I be attacked because of you?"

The Alv then gestured towards the side and I turned to see several other people who had been walking past quickly avert their gazes.

They were clearly watching us just now and after realising that I was looking back at them, they tried to pretend they were busy with something else.

Or was it just because it's better to show that the Alv was already taken and to get others to back off?

I suppose it worked in a way since no one approached us and merely just watched from a distance.

We then reached the more unsavoury parts of the station where Mara's clinic was located and we had to move in a single file because of how narrow the alleys were.

But even then, they still insisted on holding my hands while we moved and I decided not to protest.

Just like earlier, the people we passed by were staring at us, though I could practically feel that the lust rolling off them as they watched us with their gazes.

I almost thought that a few of them might try something but surprisingly they didn't. In fact, they quickly averted their gaze when they either saw Amber in front of me or Lea who was behind me for some reason. It almost felt like they were intimidated by them?

We turned the corner and we finally reached Mara's clinic, only to see several armed men wearing a sort of uniform while red and blue lights were blinking around the area.

Wait, what the heck? Is that the police? Why are they in front of her clinic?

Sensing that something was clearly wrong and fearing the worst, I rushed towards the clinic only for an armoured guy to step in front of us and block the way.

"Woah, hold it there. This is a crime scene, you're going to need to take the long way around, ladies."

I gave the guy a look, "What's going on here? There's supposed to be a Gene Clinic, right?"

"Police business. You don't need to know. Please move away from here, lady."

I pointed at the clinic they were standing in front of, "Our friend is the owner of the place. Please... Is she alright?"

"Lady, I'm telling you to fuck off already, did you not hear me the first time? If she's really your friend, then go somewhere else and wait for the news of something."

I was about to start demanding for him to tell us whether Mara was alright when a voice came from behind the police officer, "Is that you, Tera? What are you doing here?"

The police guy stepped aside to reveal Mara walking up to us still dressed in her doctor's coat and looking none the worse for wear, which meant whatever happened here was not life threatening, thank gods.

"Mara! What happened here? Why is the police here? Are you alright?"

As though my words triggered her, she suddenly stopped and her face changed significantly.

"I was robbed... Something very important was stolen..."

Oh shit... Mara's an information broker so the things that she kept might have been very important information that might ruin someone if someone else found it, right?

"What was it?" I asked, expecting the worst.

She sucked in a breath, as though to mentally psyche herself up while she straightened her back.

She then gave me a very serious look and told me two words and nothing else, "Your food."

...

I'm sorry, but what?
