More than ten minutes later, the floating van drove into the city, then drove along the approach bridge and onto the elevated road.
The design of the elevated road has a Gothic aesthetic and is very dense, like a roller coaster track, with twists and turns and staggered heights. The vehicles on the road come and go, with smooth shapes and various types. They are all half a foot off the ground and moving at extremely fast speeds, like shooting stars passing by outside the car window.
The buildings on both sides gradually rose up, at least forty or fifty stories high. They were covered with various types of billboards and colorful neon lights, including food, clothing, electronic products, vehicles, and houses. , dazzling and overwhelming.
Skyscrapers are rising in the distance, all more than a hundred stories high. The buildings are equipped with light-emitting diode arrays that are constantly changing patterns. On both sides of the elevated road, huge plasma screens can be seen from time to time, playing news, advertisements, or TV series.
"Welcome to the dream city of Crow City."
&he dream etropolis, cro city”
Looking at the feasting outside the window and the bilingual welcome messages passing by on the road, Chen Xing rubbed his face vigorously. He repeatedly reminded himself that he had entered a legal society from a wilderness world, and any random and reasonable behavior in the wilderness could become a felony here.
Smoking in public places, whistling at the opposite sex, littering, swearing, and provoking troubles will all lead to a decline in social credit. The red table provides a temporary social credit score worth one hundred points, which is equivalent to a large credit rating. To put it simply, if you whistle at a strange woman a few times or throw away garbage a few times, you will be detained and expelled from the city.
The extremely strict social credit system is in sharp contrast to the law of the jungle in the wilderness. Many wilderness people enter the city for the first time and are expelled within a few days due to various minor problems and mistakes.
Along the way, the driver of the city transport vehicle did not say a single unnecessary word except for necessary exchanges. In fact, it showed that he was discriminating against people coming from the wilderness.
The difference between wilderness people and city people is just like the farmers and city people on earth in the past. There is a small group of urban people who always have a strange sense of superiority. They eat the grains and vegetables grown by farmers and the chickens, ducks and geese raised by farmers, but they discriminate against them. This phenomenon is more obvious and common in the red earth continent.
Chen Xing has always felt that he is incompatible with the city. He prefers to stay in the wilderness, where he doesn't have to tense up all day long or think about whether his behavior violates a certain law every moment. Another example is the transport truck driver in front of him. He would never dare to treat the four of them with such an attitude in the wilderness.
Because they are mercenaries, wolves in the wilderness. If they are unhappy at all, they will send each other to hell.
The city is most suitable for people like Ye Yang Bailiu, who are highly educated, high-quality, and good-looking. And he is the type where the teacher lectures above while he sleeps below, and he will fight for his life when he is impulsive. The best destination is the wilderness. . Do as you please, grudges as you please.
After entering the city, Cassie, Aqiaomu, and Danny were all a little cautious, looking away from the window as if they were adjusting their mentality.
Not long after, the city transport vehicle turned off the elevated road, walked several hundred meters on a quiet path, and finally stopped in front of an old-looking hotel.
"Sir, we've arrived at the Banyan Tree Hotel." The driver turned to Chen Xing and said with a cold politeness.
The four people got out of the car and unloaded the goods. After paying the fee of two gold coins, the city transport vehicle disappeared into the night with a "whoosh" sound.
There is an old banyan tree planted in front of the hotel. Looking up, there are lush branches and leaves, twenty or thirty meters high, covering half of the hotel. Orange-red light shines through the windows, making it quiet and leisurely.
This hotel has a history of 70 or 80 years. It is old and low-key. Chen Xing stayed there once or twice in his previous life and it felt good.
"Sir, ladies, would you like to stay in the hotel?" Not long after getting off the bus, a neatly dressed male waiter wearing white gloves ran out and asked the four of them with a warm smile on his face.
"Give us four rooms and bring a cart to transport our luggage in." Chen Xing ordered.
"Okay, sir." The male waiter ran back to the hotel, called a few waiters to come out, and moved the things into the luggage cart and entered the hotel.
After a while, after completing the formalities and paying the money, the four of them took the elevator to Chen Xing's room.
Chen Xing looked at the clock on the wall. It was two o'clock in the night, and then said, "You guys go back to your room to rest first, and go to the back alley tomorrow to sell the goods. I have some things to do, so I won't be with you tomorrow. I'll meet you in the evening." Let’s meet.”
"Yeah." "Okay." "Okay." The three of them nodded.
Watching the three people leave, a trace of complexity flashed in Chen Xing's eyes. After the dirty work is done tomorrow, it's time for them to go their separate ways.
After sitting for a while and eating some fruit, when the wall clock pointed to three o'clock, Chen Xing picked up his backpack and left the hotel. He didn't want to live with three people, it would be too big a goal. In addition, they killed the Black Eagle Group members. There was no problem before shipment, but they might be discovered after shipment. He just used the red watch to check the information of the Black Vulture Group on the Mercenary Association's website. There are more than 300 registered members of the other party, and the previous one must be one of the detachments.
Therefore, it is better for him to act alone.
After walking on the dark boulevard for half an hour, Chen Xing took a taxi and came to a street lined with alluring women on both sides.
Liuying Lane, the most famous red light district in Crow City.
"Big wave girl, 666" "Tram hotel, midnight passion." "One kiss seals love." "Two layers of ice and fire, poisonous dragon diamond." "Lover's station."
Light boxes emitting warm light can be seen everywhere, with explicit texts, slogans, and sexy pictures, just like a quick glance.
"Sir, do you want a woman?" "Uncle, I am only seventeen years old this year." "Handsome boy, do you want to try it? My sister has big breasts~" "Brother, do you want to play something exciting?"
As they passed by, the wandering orioles flirted, winked at Chen Xing, and squawked. Chen Xing turned a blind eye, his eyes as calm as water, in sharp contrast to the drunken and leering men around him.
I saw him walking like flying, and his figure quickly disappeared around the corner of the alley.
A two-story building appeared in front of me. The light box at the door was as small as the building. It was less than one meter high and half a meter high. It had rounded corners and a pink light with a heart pattern painted on it. Then it turned left and right. One word each, together it is: Warm "heart" building.
"Oh, handsome guy, welcome."
A fat woman with heavy makeup, big shoulders, round waist, and extremely strong body walked out while twisting her waist. She wore thick purple eye shadow, and her sausage-like lips were painted with bright red lipstick. There were circles of fat on her belly, and she trembled when she walked.
"Which young lady are you looking for?" the fat woman said enthusiastically, her face looking like flowers.
"Su Xuefei." Chen Xing said. In his last life, he had an affair with this woman. Although it was short-lived, it was also very engaging. Su Xuefei is a kind-hearted girl. Since she is looking for a place to stay, she should find one she is relatively familiar with.
The fat woman's face immediately dropped, she twisted her buttocks, and walked inside. As she walked, she said, "I suggest you go elsewhere. Our Xue Fei is still studying and we don't accept guests."
This fat woman is Su Xuefei's mother Su Muchu. She has a dreamy name and a scary figure, but her daughter is slim and graceful.
"I just came here to chat with her and make friends." Chen Xing caught up with her and said with a smile. At the same time, he took out a few gold coins and put them in Su Muchu's big hand.
In his previous life, he first met Su Muxue five years later, in the summer of dr2618. At that time, he was still a small mercenary of the Thunder Light Regiment, with an annual income of less than two hundred gold coins. According to his guess, Su Muxue is still in high school and has no intention of accompanying guests.
"A few stinky rich people just want to see our Xuefei without even peeing and looking in the mirror." Su Muzhu said with disgust, but she held the gold coin tightly in her hand and refused to let go.
Chen Xing reached into the money bag, grabbed a handful, about ten, and put them into Su Muchu's other big hand.
"Oh, why are you so embarrassed?" Seeing the golden coins, Su Muzhu's fat and white face seemed to have a spring breeze blowing over her. She patted Chen Xing on the shoulder with a smile. The force was so strong that Chen Xing's blood was stagnant. He took several steps back.
"It's really costing you. I'll ask that girl to get up and play the piano for you." Su Muzhu happily went to prepare. Chen Xing sat down on the sofa in the front hall, looked at the hazy crystal lamp above, and fell into memories. among
