The man named Carlos was constantly fiddling with an electronic tablet. He had been doing this for quite some time, and asionally he would snort in annoyance. "We haven''t been able to get a signal from the other escape pods, Sun."


    The short-haired woman called Sun kept looking around, then answered in a worried tone. "I haven''t seen the others either. We shouldnd close to each other, right?"


    "So, so it is suspected that humans have inhabited this ce for thousands of years?" Gwen, the only one who heard Seb''s exnation, rubbed her chin with her index finger, smiling slightly. "Maybe that exins why we don''t see any other escape pods around here, but it still doesn''t make sense, sir."


    Is this woman flirting with Seb? Why does her voice have a low intonation and a bit of a sigh? Her sigh also didn''t sound like she was upset, tired, or anything like that.


    Seb turned his head to the other two people who were busy by themselves, then smiled back. "You all can see the escape pod of one of our members. That thing fell months ago."


    "Why didn''t you tell me earlier?" Carlos came to Seb with an annoyed face. "You said there were no more escape podsing, but now you want to show them? What do you really want?"


    "Like I said earlier. That escape pod came here months ago." Seb still looked patient.


    "Stop this nonsense!" Carlos snapped, bringing his face closer to Seb''s. "You''ve been saying something that doesn''t make any sense! From the time distortion that made the escape podsnd with different timeframes, to the residents of therge expedition ships that have built various groups here! You think I''m stupid!?" The man patted Seb''s leather shirt with the back of his finger. "And what kind of clothes are these!? You guys are cosying to prank us!? Admit it, you guys actually also came from the escape pod that justnded, right!?"


    Manu pushes Carlos a little. "Hey, man. Don''t you think what you''re doing is rude?"


    Carlos rebuffed the hand. "Do not touch me! You ….


    The man stopped his speech when Sun touched his shoulder. The woman shook her head, and Carlos finally backed away with another snort.


    Seb took a deep breath, said something I whispered to him. "If you all really want to see that one escape pod we''re referring to, we can take you there, but it''s going to take a while. About an hour on foot."


    Sun and Carlos exchanged nces.


    ***


    "Impossible." Sun gasped when he saw the wreckage of the escape pod that had carried Kat. Meanwhile, Gwen just narrowed her eyes at that.


    "Why? Is it just a broken escape pod? Nothing special, right? There may have been a failure during thending." Carlos came to the object and observed it. "The two people who approached us looked perfectly healthy and unharmed."


    "Can''t you see it, Carlos?" Sun was taken aback and walked quickly to the man. "You see, this thing is so filthy, and some parts of it are covered with moss." Then the woman pointed to the hollow-shaped trail that was the mark from thending. "And look! Thending spot is covered with grass!"


    Carlos looked at the grass that had grown there. "So, you believe in these two people? Have you been stupid, Sun? There must be an exnation for something like that! Don''t believe their bullshit!"


    "But all of this is too weird, Carlos." Sun shook her head, starting to sob. "We couldn''t find another escape pod…. Once we found it, it was already like this…."


    Taking a deep breath, Carlos hugged the woman. "Don''t worry, Sun. No matter what happens, I will protect you from anything. We''ll definitely be able to find the others and regroup. Maybe our escape pod justnded some distance away from the others."


    Ugh, it''s so hard to convince a denial person like this.


    "So, what do you guys do after this?" Seb asked, forming a kind smile again. "Our house is open to all of you. It''s not too far, just a few minutes walk to the west."


    "Sorry, but we don''t believe you two. You guys are like raving madmen." Carlos replied sarcastically, then took Sun''s hand and walked briskly from there.


    "Where are we going?" Sun asked while wiping her tears.


    "Of course, we will find another escape pod!"


    "I suggest you don''t do that," Manu warns. "You all don''t know the conditions of this ce, and your weapons are only knives, right?"


    Carlos kept walking fast and pointed at Manu. "Shut up! I told you, we don''t trust you two!"


    Gwen, the blonde woman with pigtails, smiled back at my two colonists. "Apparently, this is goodbye. You two seem like good people, but sorry, I''m morefortable with those who are clearly on the same expedition ship with me."


    As the woman started walking away, I pressed the pause button. They can''t just be left alone. Apart from their excellent stats, they also knew nothing about the condition of this ce. I know my colonist isn''t perfect, and that means more mouths to feed. There is a possibility that they also betrayed. However, after destroying Congraylham, I wanted to save as many lives as possible. And at the very least, they brought their own food, even though it would eventually run out.


    After considering various things, from their stats, the circumstances around us, and so on, I managed toe up with a n. I immediately alerted my colonists, including Kat, who was still lurking behind one of the trees in the distance.


    Maybe this n is crazy, and Seb won''t be able to help.


    As soon as I pressed the y button, Manu ran and tackled Gwen from behind until they both fell down. Seb, who saw that, immediately flinched and ran away. Carlos and Sun stopped in their tracks and looked back. Carlos was about to help Gwen, but Sun ran away with incredible speed.


    Yeah, after all, she hated violence like Seb.


    "Let me go!" Gwen tried to break free from Manu''s grip, then waved her hand at Carlos. "Help me!"


    However, Carlos went after Sun instead. This fits my guess. Sun and Carlos have a rtionship.. The man would prefer to go after Sun, not wanting her to get lost or run into other dangers.
