Xu Siqian was too lazy to argue with the crazy man in front of her. She patted the dust on her clothes and pulled Qi Yu towards a building that looked like lying corn.
"What is this place?"
"Arms Registration Office".
"Then why is it shaped like a corn?"
"That's not corn, that's a missile."
"Oh~"
"The last time I passed by, I thought this was a canteen."
"Shhh, if you let these small-minded people hear it, you won't be able to explain it clearly."
Qi Yu had more and more doubts in his heart, so he simply typed and asked Xu Siqian: "Why are the people on Mars so weird?"
"Those who made mistakes on the earth, those who were squeezed out on the moon and couldn't stay any longer, and those who were unsuccessful in major space stations are all forced to come here. I would say that the climate is 80,000 times better than that of Jupiter, but they don't have much motivation. , the progress of infrastructure construction has been stagnant."
Qi Yu probably understood. No wonder few people applied for Mars when they graduated. The earth was the first choice, the moon was second, and the space station was third. Mars was chosen only if it was not possible.
After filing the case, Xu Siqian felt no psychological burden at all. He borrowed two motorcycles and went chasing people with Qiyu.
Xu Siqian made a drift and stopped the escaping Lao Zhang.
"I'll give you the chip and you'll give the money back."
"Sorry, old man, I don't want to return or exchange anything here!" Lao Zhang shook his head, looking like there was nothing you could do to me.
"boom!"
"A warning!" Xu Siqian fired a shot into the sky.
"It's useless. At worst, you can kill me. The money has already been spent anyway." Lao Zhang sat cross-legged on the ground.
"boom!"
"Warning twice!"
"Damn girl, are you serious?"
According to regulations, criminals who refuse to listen to the warning after more than three times can be shot immediately anywhere except the heart, abdomen, and head.
Seeing that Xu Siqian was about to fire the third shot, Lao Zhang finally relented: "Half, at most half."
"Have a cigarette and let's talk." Xu Siqian handed the cigarette behind his ear to Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang looked sad and lit the fire several times without success: "Damn it, Crazy Chen, the liquid oxygen is almost gone and I don't even know how to replace it."
Xu Siqian adjusted the laser gun to the lowest setting and lit a cigarette for Lao Zhang: "After all, we all graduated from the same school. You are the senior. I should respect you, but it is not good for you to lie to anyone. My problem cannot be solved with just one sentence."
"Then what do you want to do? Captain Xu, I'm telling you the truth, half of the money was given to Crazy Chen."
"What are you doing for him?"
"He said he could help me return to Earth."
"You believe this. If he had a way to go back, wouldn't he go back first?"
Lao Zhang sighed, took out the tablet, and handed half of it back to Qi Yu on the spot.
"Okay, can you let me go?"
"You don't want the chip?"
"Here you go, I don't even have an airship, so what's the use of it?"
After bidding farewell to Lao Zhang, Xu Siqian and Qi Yu went to Mars Warehouse to buy the previously obsolete locomotives and rails. They were actually as good as new ones, but now Mars didn't have so much demand for cargo transportation, so they put them all on hold.
It just so happened that Xu Siqian had already bought it back, and it would be reimbursed anyway. It was the first time that I felt so happy to pay for it.
By the way, she placed the photo she took from Jupiter in front of Jiang Qian's tombstone. Without saying a word, she put it down and left.
They have never seen Lao Zhang since that day, and they don't know if Madman Chen really found a way back for him or if he died somewhere.
