It's good to have a dream. It’s even better when there is a clear road to it and the dream is a very specific goal. The whole question is that fate has a peculiar sense of humor. And even more so when the path involves risk to life. If you are weak, then you will simply be swept off this road, and if you are strong, then much more interesting options are quite possible than you thought! Because space is big and who knows what secrets lie hidden in its cold emptiness. The second book is about the adventures of one interesting guy who, from the slums of the earth's metropolis, ended up working in a logistics company with a very interesting range of work performed!

Author's Notes: Regarding the title. In the era of the sailing fleet, a black flag was used to force surrender. If the enemy refused to surrender, a bright red flag was raised. I thought that this sequence, among other things, very much suited the character of the main character.
