Three hours later, the robot Isaac finally repaired the shuttle boat on time.

So, after finishing the carnival with a group of alien "primitives" and basically having enough to eat and drink, a certain bad little girl, together with the frightened helmsman Gordon, was gravitated by the invisible shuttle boat.

The beam was sucked high into the sky, entered the cabin, disappeared, and then returned to the Orville in orbit.

As for that troubled little girl who fell from the sky in a beam of light, had unauthorized long-term contact with the local 'primitive people' of the Bronze Age civilization, and then disappeared in a beam of light, what will happen on this planet?

What kind of impact it will have is currently unknown.

Not long after Annie, Gordon and Isaac returned, the robot Isaac and John and others from the engineering team began intensive research on the strange planet that suddenly appeared in order to verify that Annie had been on the shuttle boat.

Some of the things said.

As for the specific research results, it is still unknown at present.

Anyway, in the evening, after Captain Ed and First Officer Kelly finally recovered from the all-night drinking and learned the whole story, they no longer cared about anything else, but had to take the first step.

It took time to contact a female fleet commander of the Planetary Alliance who was in charge of alien negotiations.

'ha!'

'Well done!'

'Captain Ed, I don't understand why you didn't report it immediately?'

'okay!'

'Don't explain it, I know the reason, so let me tell you!'

In the communication screen, the female commander in purple coat said with an angry smile. Then seeing that Ed seemed to want to say something, she quickly reached out to tell him to shut up, and then clicked on a document.

And he read it like a script:

'Yes, I have just read your logbook, and it is described like this...'

'have a look!'

'Captain Ed and First Mate Kelly drank together all night and were unable to perform their duties the next day?'

'this……'

'It really refreshed my outlook!'

'Then...you had no choice but to decide to let that little girl be the temporary captain and take over the command. Am I right?'

'Then, what none of you expected was...'

'While you had to take a break due to alcoholism, she ran to a primitive planet that suddenly appeared without permission, and interfered with a primitive civilization from another universe?'

'Four hours of contact time?'

'very nice!'

'Captain Ed, tell me, how do you want me to punish you two?'

'Should I be given a serious demerit, or should I be dismissed directly?'

Having said this, the purple-clothed fleet commander sneered and looked at Ed and the man who was standing next to Ed awkwardly a little later. At this time, he didn't even bother to eat dinner, so that his lips were a little white.

First Mate Kelly.

"Maybe……"

"But no punishment?"

"I mean!"

"At least we have discovered the fact that there are indeed different planes in the universe and that different planes can intersect and be connected. Can we make up for it?"

"not to mention……"

"Anne is the head of a big country, and she also comes from another dimension of the universe. In a sense, she can move freely, but she is not under our control."

"Besides, there's nothing we can do to stop her, and you know it!"

"Commander Tucker was very angry with her last time, have you forgotten?"

Glancing at the first mate Kelly next to him, Ed only hesitated for a short while, and then he had to quickly organize his words and bite the bullet and start to quibble, and put his hope in some bad little girl who likes to do whatever he wants.

Their identity allows them to escape today's disaster.

"That's right!"

"Ed is right!"

"commander……"

“I couldn’t agree more with that!”

After Ed dared to speak, Kelly next to him hurriedly stepped forward and echoed, saying that a certain little girl was really not under their control, and they couldn't control it even if they wanted to.

'Maybe you are right too!'

'Oh well!'

'I can leave aside the issue of accountability. That little girl's problem is indeed quite difficult and thorny.'

'I don't have the authority to deal with her anyway.'

Hearing Ed and Kelly mention the little girl that the Planet Alliance Command loved, hated, feared, and couldn't afford to offend, the woman in the communication screen couldn't help but have a headache and sighed slightly, and then the stern

The scary face finally became much better.

'but!'

Then, before Ed could say anything, the woman suddenly changed the topic and brought the topic to the planet that would appear mysteriously.

'Ed.'

'You must remain in orbit for seventy-two hours and conduct the necessary investigations and scans.'

'We need to figure out how that planet appeared, and we must figure out whether it really comes from another parallel universe!'

'The matter of that planet has now been listed as the Orville's top priority!'

'If necessary, we will then send a research ship to replace yours.'

'That's important!'

If that planet is really from another parallel universe as reported by the Orville, then there is no doubt that there is a certain connection between the two parallel universes under the hypothesis of parallel universes.

and the possibility of interoperability will be thoroughly confirmed!

By then, the true identity of that troublesome little girl Annie will also be confirmed to a certain extent, so both she and the Planetary Alliance Command attach great importance to this.

"!

"

"clear!"

"Thank you sir!"

"Thank you Commander!"

After seeing that the other party really didn't want to find out about the drunkenness and the fact that the Planetary Alliance Command was also very interested in their discovery and did not intend to hold them accountable, Ed and Kelly were both excited.

The ground responded loudly and said.

'okay.'

'Don't rush to be happy yet!'

'If the results of your investigation are not satisfactory to the command, we will reserve the decision to severely punish you for the stupid mistakes you made!'

'When the time comes, I'm afraid what awaits you will not be as simple as dismissal and investigation.'

'besides!'

'Please don't drink too much on cruises again, there will be no next time.'

'complete!'

At this point, the woman didn't give Ed and Kelly a chance to speak. She glared at them one last time as if to show off her power, and then hurriedly closed the communication.

"..."

"..."

Seeing that the communication interface was blocked, Ed, who had escaped, first looked at each other heartily with Kelly, then relaxed and said:

"Let's go!"

"Let's go to the bridge and have a look?"

After being frightened like this one after another, Ed felt a little energetic, so he planned to go to the bridge now and take control of the situation.

"But……"

"Isn't our vacation over yet?"

"It's only been twelve hours, right?"

Kelly looked a little hesitant and asked awkwardly.
To be continued...
