"Look, isn't that the person who was taken away? We didn't see her yesterday, so I thought something had happened to her!"
Stella Sterling's appearance made the expressions of the others on the ship change.
Two groups of people had been taken away yesterday. One group came out right away, but the other woman was never seen again. They all assumed some problem had been found with her and she had already been "dealt with."
Seeing her so suddenly, they thought their eyes were playing tricks on them.
Many people on the ship pointed and whispered at Stella Sterling. Drake's group saw her too.
"She's out too? Did she finally change her mind and decide to obediently hand over her gun and listen to Meridia Base?"
"Of course. If she didn't hand over the gun, was she really going to get off the ship and leave? Out here on this vast expanse of water, danger can appear at any moment, not just at night but even during the day. How could anyone survive without joining the base?"
