"Captain. It's now six o'clock in the afternoon, time for the second sweep task," Sherrod turned to Su Ming'an, "I planned to complete the second sweep task with you last night, but found you were not in your room. Did you go on the task alone last night?"

"Then let's get ready to go," said Sherrod with a smile.
