"Every building in the city rises like a thousand sails across the sea."
Hesia closed the document in her hand, the image of the broken and lonely city still echoing in her mind.
There are currently not many people living in the North Second District. It occupies nearly one million square kilometers of land, but has only 8 million people. Most of them are gathered in three semi-abandoned cities, and Jilou City is one of them.
"The most lively event in Jielou City every year is undoubtedly the annual 'Flowing Fire Festival', which takes place in mid-July. There will be more tourists visiting there at this time, and it will also be lively and safer." This is how it was introduced in the forum, which Some photos and videos taken were also posted. You can see layers of red flags fluttering, incense and ashes filling the air, and devout people crowding on the winding mountain path to worship gods.
In the interstellar age, do people still believe in God? Although there are many similar questions on the interstellar network, whenever people are still unsettled in their hearts or not strong enough and need to rely on and comfort, there is a need for spiritual sustenance. will occur.
The one in the dark witnessed your pain and discomfort. You confessed the anguish in your heart, so you got some kind of release, and your heart seemed to feel much better. For this kind of belief, federal officials have never promoted it, nor have they deliberately suppressed it. As long as Act within the designated circle and scope, and do not interfere or exceed the rules.
After understanding the information on the Internet, Heshia felt that it seemed necessary for her to go to the "Jielou City" in the North Second District. Although she might not be able to find clues, she was also vaguely curious in her heart as to why the old man in Huck's mouth was so determined at one glance. My mother is from 'Jielou City'.
The time was this month. Looking at the calendar, Heshia suddenly discovered that the time coincided with the 'Flowing Fire Festival', but she also wondered if it would be bad to take a long leave.
"So Danterian also wants to go out and have fun during the holidays?" After hearing Hesia's thoughts, Belphegor groped his chin.
"It's not impossible to take a long leave. For example, 'Butis' often disappears for several days before returning to work. 'Naberius' needs to choose fabrics and floral decorations, so she often takes leave."
"Dantrienne can take a leave of absence, but I'm afraid some of the stable customers who have finally managed to operate will disappear." She said with some worry.
"Yes, but I will write a notice carefully. I hope everyone can wait for me for a week." Heshia thought about it and could only do this for now.
"Oh, it's only been a week? I thought Danterian was traveling for at least half a month." Belphegor shook his rabbit ears.
"How can it take so long?" The girl explained that she was going to the North Second District.
"There, by the way, July's Flowing Fire is indeed the most suitable time of the year to go."
"But, it's not safe over there in Jelou City, or in other words, the entire North Second District is not safe." The rabbit-eared maid reminded the girl.
"Payin City is a typical dense city. There are riot control and self-discipline units at regular intervals on the streets. Various surveillance systems are distributed in the corridors and intersections. There are very few crimes. But the North Second District is different. There are not many surveillance systems there. , some can’t even connect to the intra-satellite network, and there are no riot control robots. Even the local government is semi-autonomous and controlled by the locals.”
"So I say that most tourists will only go there in July, and because they want to maintain the only local tourism economy, the local government will be more restrained and careful during this time."
Belphegor talked about things to pay attention to when going to the North Second District, which made Heshia have to be careful and cautious, and consider whether to wait a few more years to become stronger before going there.
However, the very next day, when 'Butis' heard about her concerns, she made what seemed like a good suggestion.
"Dantrian can bring it with you. Although this guy is a bit naughty, he is actually very concealed and aggressive." The emerald-haired maid pointed at the big spider in the girl's arms. It ate the snacks Hesia fed it, its big black eyes moving.
"It?" The girl tilted her head, feeling that if she went out with a big spider on her head, she would definitely be stopped.
Seeing that the girl was puzzled, Butis came to her side and hit the big spider on the head with one hand.
"Get up and work, Danterian doesn't even believe you can protect her~" Her words immediately made the big spider anxious.
After that, the girl felt that her hand was empty, and then the cave-dwelling wolf spider with dark blue thorns jumped onto the table, and the lines on its body flashed with brilliance, and then it disappeared directly behind her.
Heshia stood up quickly, looked around with her maid skirt in hand, and then walked around in circles, still not seeing the big spider.
After touching her head, there was still nothing. Heshia blinked, a faint blue light floated, and then she discovered this guy in her shadow.

After being nursed back to health by Heshia, although this big spider has not advanced, its overall strength has risen to a higher level than before, from the previous excellent gold level to the rare gold level. If you want it to really advance To achieve this level, I'm afraid the girl will have to go to Yuanting Academy to learn enough knowledge and secret techniques.
"It turned out to be hiding in my shadow." After the girl found out, she slowly squatted down, and then a burst of light blue magic power floated from her fingertips, and she clicked on the top of the big spider's head, making it appear.
"Speaking of which, you are all job agencies from the Withering Sequence, and it's easy to cooperate. This way you can hide from some old and simple inspection equipment." Butis nodded slightly.
"But is it really okay to take this guy out?" The girl picked up the big spider again, put it in front of her, and looked at it carefully.
"It was raised by Butis, I guess. And I'm a little worried that it will really bite someone and it will be over if it can't be saved." The girl shook her head and spoke slightly worriedly.
"Well, I will prepare three special serums for you and give them to the other party in time. Besides, Danterian, in fact, many times conflicts arise because the other party thinks they can bully you. When you show something When aggressive and intimidating, most people will not act rashly, which can also reduce a lot of trouble."
"When necessary, you can take it out and play with it in front of you. This will scare away many people who try to talk to you and embarrass you." 'Buttis' is like an evil big sister spreading some words to Heshia, the little white rabbit. necessary means.
"Is it really possible?" The girl was dubious, but still looked at the big spider in her hand.
"No problem. Besides, there is a mixed crowd in the North Second District. Even if Heshia is special, she won't attract anyone's attention."
"Then, give it a try?" The girl was finally moved by what Butis said and agreed to take this big spider on a long trip.
In the afternoon, Heshia, led by Belphegor, came to the manager to talk about asking for leave.
"Are you going to travel and visit relatives?" The manager took a sip of scented tea gracefully, and then looked at the distant scenery, seeming to think of his own childhood.
"Young people are still so energetic and impulsive." She seemed to sigh.
"Go ahead, but after taking this long leave, you won't be able to take any more long leave for the next two months."
"Okay, thank you, manager." Although the manager often reminds girls of some kind of animal, in a sense, he is indeed a good person.
"Yeah, yeah." Hearing the gratitude in the girl's voice, the manager was very pleased and seemed to feel a little happy inside. Then, under the attention of the girl and Belphegor, she picked up the bag at hand and slowly walked towards it. Walk outside.
It's time for her to rest again, the work is really 'hard'.
After solving the problem of asking for leave, Hexia is about to embark on a journey to find out her mother's life experience. I wonder if there is anyone in Jilou City who knows her mother. Or maybe this is just a disappointing attempt.
