An initially uncomplicated task of apprehending a speculator droid unexpectedly transforms into a frantic race against time as the Shingouz unexpectedly intervene during the arrest, urgently seeking Valerian and Laureline's protection against a threat that aims to end their lives. To the agents' astonishment, the person in pursuit turns out to be an old friend, who promptly initiates a fierce gunfight. However, this action only exacerbates the already intricate situation: unbeknownst to our heroes, their trusted information brokers have inadvertently caused the loss of Earth in a card game!

The sudden intrusion of the Shingouz disrupts the agents' plans, throwing them into a state of confusion and urgency. As they attempt to carry out their mission, they are confronted with an unexpected threat that jeopardizes their lives. To their surprise, the person pursuing them is an old friend, whom they had not expected to encounter. The ensuing gunfight further complicates the situation, as the agents find themselves caught in the crossfire between their friend and unknown assailants.

During the chaos, it becomes apparent that the loss of Earth in a card game is not the only consequence of the Shingouz's intervention. The agents realize that their actions have set off a chain of events that could have far-reaching consequences for the entire universe. They must quickly find a way to rectify the situation and prevent the loss of Earth from becoming a reality.

As they delve deeper into the mystery, the agents encounter a group of rogue traders who are responsible for the loss of Earth. They are a powerful and influential group, with connections to various factions and organizations across the galaxy. The agents must navigate through a web of treachery and deception, using their skills and knowledge to outmaneuver their opponents and bring them to justice.

The experience also strengthens their bond as partners, as they face danger together and overcome obstacles that test their limits.

As they return to their base, the agents reflect on the events that have transpired and the lessons they have learned. They are grateful for the support of their colleagues and friends, and they are determined to continue their work as agents of the Federation in the fight against threats to the galaxy. They know that there will be more challenges ahead, but they are ready to face them head-on and protect the people and planets they serve.
