13、。飞船尾部的一个房间里，凯注视着面前计算机屏幕上的数字。“该吃饭了。”瑞拉叫他。那些数字飞快地变换着，凯眼都不眨一下。瑞拉穿过房间走到他的桌旁。她也开始观察那些数字。“卫星怎么了？”她问。她是个美丽的女孩，大约二十岁，黑黑的长发，大大的眼睛。“卫星没问题，”凯平静地回答，“是人工臭氧层。”他伏在桌上，开始往一个本子上记录那些数字。突然，那些数字停止了变换。凯转向瑞拉。“在欧洲上空，”他说，“已经开始了。人工臭氧层正在破裂。那上面本来就有大洞了，现在那些洞还在增大。”“说得对，咱们现在去见塞鲁船长吧，待会儿再吃饭好吗？”凯站起身。他身高几乎有两米，眼睛和头发都是黑色的。“好，走吧。”他说。他们迅
14、速朝塞鲁船长的房间走去。他们等在船长的门外。“进来！”塞鲁船长喊道。她是个胖脸的小个子女人。“进来！喝点什么吗？”“不用，谢谢，”凯说，“我想请您看看这些数字。”凯把自己的笔记本递给塞鲁船长。塞鲁船长看了看那些数字。突然，她的脸色变了。“不，不，”她说，“我不想谈。时候不早了，我也累了。坐下喝点什么吧。”凯和瑞拉坐了下来。塞鲁船长的房间里有一扇大窗子。凯透过玻璃凝望黑色的天空。他看见了月亮。在黑色的天幕下月亮显得冰冷皎洁。“塞鲁船长，”他开口了，“这事很重要。仔细看看那些数字。人工臭氧层已经开始”“别说了。”塞鲁船长站起身把双手插进衣兜。她走到窗前注视着天空。“300年前，地球几乎毁灭，”瑞拉
15、说，“因为有人工臭氧层地球才免于灾难。但是现在，在欧洲上空，人工臭氧层正在破裂。我们希望您能和地球司令高格谈一谈。”塞鲁船长没有动。“你还记得阿岱吗？”她问。不等回答，她接着说：“两年前我在他的船上。一天晚上卫星发回了关于人工臭氧层的一些不寻常的数据。我们回到地球去见地球司令。”塞鲁船长停了下来。瑞拉看了一眼凯。“然后呢？”她问船长。“高格生气了，特别生气，”塞鲁船长说，“最后，他把阿岱分配到了月球。阿岱现在还在那儿，在月亮下面作月亮部族的司令。”凯等了一两秒钟：“我知道阿岱的事。但是我们需要再和地球司令谈谈。这些数据比上次的还要糟。”塞鲁船长的脸涨红了：“你不明白。我不会去跟高格说的。上次他把我发配到了南极的一艘气象飞船上。我第一次在飞船上呆了两年。”塞鲁船长喝了一口水。凯站起身：“谢谢您，塞鲁船长。”
