4 Novelettes: Harold's Escape, Chapter 2

Harold and Mario share a lunch of Canton rations (cold mush). They want to discuss their predicament, but are aware that the foundry's office is bugged. Fry, one of the laborers assigned to the project, shares the news that they are to cast a second aluminum blade base. The first crew's casting failed. The rumor is that the first crew were taken out to sea and shot for their failure. You can show your support for the continuation of the stories by buying a virtual coffee on Buy Me A Coffee.
