THIRTY-FOUR
The Oregonâs spacious board room gave Sylvia Chang and Eric Stone plenty of room to spread out printouts and work on their laptops. A giant screen on the wall showed a view of the sunset so crisp that it looked like a picture window. This morning it had given her a front row seat to the sinking of the Marsh Flyer. Now she and Eric were working together to decipher the computer files brought back by Eddie Seng.
âIâm just glad to know everybody is now sure that Iâm not crazy,â she said.
âWhy would anyone think you were crazy?â said Eric, who was sitting next to her.
âI had no proof of what happened until Bob Parsons made my story plausible. I was beginning to wonder myself if I had hallucinated the whole trimaran attack.â
âI never doubted you. Youâre too smart and resourceful to make up something like that. Iâm still in awe of how you survived the sinking of your ship. That was a long swim, and then you immediately started taking care of everyone else on the Empiric. Itâs pretty inspiring.â
Sylvia put her hand on Ericâs. âThatâs sweet of you. Iâm glad Iâve gotten to know you over the last few days. This has been hard on Mark, but itâs comforting to know he has you as a friend here on the ship.â
Eric looked down and turned red, but he didnât take his hand away. âAnd Iâm happy youâre here for him. Besides, without you I wouldnât have decrypted nearly as many files as we already have.â
âAt least we may have found something to help him.â
âI know he hates being locked to that chair. Iâve already promised to help him set up his skate park on deck when heâs recovered.â
âHe skateboards here?â
Eric nodded. âI even got him a new board for Christmas, but it seems like a bad idea to give it to him now.â
Sylvia squeezed his hand. âI bet heâll love it. Itâll give him some hope.â
The door to the boardroom opened, and Julia walked in followed by Murph in his wheelchair. Eric snatched his hand out from under Sylviaâs.
âHow did the checkup go?â she asked.
âNo change,â Julia said. âHis condition seems stable.â
âStable meaning still stinks,â Murph said through his voice box. âWhat are you two doing?â
âWeâre just working on the download from the swamp factory,â Eric babbled nervously. âNothing different. Why would we be doing anything else? The only reason Iâm sitting here is because itâs easier if weâre close. That is, we can see each otherâs screens. Otherwise, Iâd be sitting over there.â
âJeez, whatâs your problem?â Murph said. âI only meant whatâs the latest?â
âI heard you had some new information for me,â Julia said, taking a seat.
âWe havenât decrypted everything yet,â Sylvia said. âItâs kind of a mess because even some of the files that got downloaded are partially overwritten.â
âBut we have found something that might be useful regarding the paralyzing gas,â Eric said. âItâs called Enervum, and itâs made from jellyfish venom.â
âWe even know what species of jellyfish,â Sylvia said.
