Chapter 12 Special Passes

There are three types of passes for Byron City, one is a special pass, one is an official pass, and one is a temporary pass, all of which allow you to enter and leave Byron City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Temporary passes are one-way, one-time, and have to be withdrawn the second time they pass through the checkpoint, with a time limit. You can either enter the city or go out of the city, there is a time limit for entering the city and a time limit for leaving the city, and if you fail to do so, you will be fined, detained, and arrested as a spy.

There are many restrictions on the use of temporary passes, but it is relatively easy to get started. Locals who want to go out of the city can be approved in minutes, and outsiders who want to enter the city are slightly more troublesome, first of all, you can't have a criminal record, and then you have to be interviewed, and you can get a temporary pass as long as you pass the interview.

When the locals use a temporary pass to leave the city, they must leave two passwords, one for returning safely, and one for when they are in danger and cannot return, and they have to give the password to return to the city. Once the person who comes back gives the second command, that person is either a spy or an outlaw trying to infiltrate the city of Byrons. In addition to the garrison, there was also a sub-station of the Inspectorate in the barracks behind the stone wall. The defenders will report the matter to the Inspectorate as soon as possible, so that the Inspectorate can deal with the matter.

The time limit for temporary passes for locals to leave the city is vague, usually before a certain day. The time limit for temporary passes for outsiders to enter the city is more precise, and it will indicate when you get the pass and when the pass will be invalidated, and the time is subject to the time at the checkpoint. The shortest time for the temporary pass is only six hours, just enough to walk from the Stonewall to the Westgate Market, and maybe not even time to buy something, for those who can't wait to see what the city of Byron is like.

Users of the temporary pass must be under military surveillance at all times, must not leave the military's surveillance area, and their activities are limited to the Ximen Market. Ximen Market is not a military district, but the military control here is probably the strictest outside of the Qingshi Palace and the Ximen Trading Post.

At first, there was only one market in Byrons, and locals could only come here to buy things. At that time, the city of Byron was not open to outsiders at all, and only the caravans of the Heyan family could enter the city. Later, the city of Byron was gradually expanded, and five markets were added to the city to make it easier for residents to shop. After the city of Byron allowed outsiders to enter the city, the West Gate Market was transformed into a tourist area and a foreign exchange area, and locals needed to show their ID cards when entering the market and when they came out.

The identity card system was Liu Xiu's idea, and its current role is not to prove the identity of residents, but to distinguish between locals and outsiders. If you never go to Simon Market, you don't need to get an ID. In other words, the ID card is actually used by locals, and the permanent "Ximen Market Pass" is similar to the official pass.

The official pass is specially prepared for officials and locals who often travel out of the city to run errands, and officials can get the official pass directly if they have a temporary task, and if they need it personally, they have to apply for it separately. For locals, the application process for an official pass is a bit cumbersome, and it takes two or three days to get it approved. The official pass is valid for one year, and after one year, you can directly take the official pass and the cost of production to the relevant department for a new one, and the original one will be invalid directly.

And for outsiders, the official pass is equivalent to half a green card in a certain world. As long as you have it, you will be able to live in the Westgate Market area of Byrons City, but you can't go outside of the Westgate Market area. By the way, this measure was also proposed by Liu Xiu.

It is not easy for outsiders to get an official pass. First of all, you must be a legal citizen of the Kingdom of Byrons, the Kingdom of Tairong, or an ally of the Kingdom of Byrons, and you must show proof of it; Secondly, you will have to live at the West Gate Trading Post for at least half a year; Third, you have to be interviewed, subject to the interviewer's assessment, and only after passing the assessment can you get the official pass.

Those who have obtained an official pass can apply for resident status if they have lived in the Ximen Market District for more than 10 years. Once your application is approved, you will be able to move out of the Westgate Market District and live with the residents of Byron City.

Special passes are for people with special status, or for special tasks. It does not have an expiration date, but the identity of the owner is indicated on the pass, as well as a special identification mark. Special passes are issued in much more quantities than official passes, but they appear at Stonewall checkpoints much less often than official passes. Each member of the Oversight Council has a special pass, which they rarely use, and most members of the Oversight Commission are required to hide their identities in order to obtain information. Unless there is an emergency, they will still use an official or temporary pass.

In addition to the Watchman's Council, high-ranking officials of the Byronic Kingdom and close ministers of the king had special passes, as did Mel and members of the royal family. However, these people can basically brush their faces directly when they go out, and they rarely encounter situations where they have to show a special pass, so they rarely use a special pass.

Normally, you don't always get a special pass at the Stonewall checkpoint every week. However, on 4 November, the officials in charge of verifying the special passes saw five special passes at the same time. All five special passes are genuine, and the owners of the special passes are all members of the Supervisory Council. The officials thought that they had important information to report to the king, so they immediately let them go, and had horses prepared for them.

However, the five young women with special passes are not members of the Watchdog, but from the royal family of Ayrt. They didn't speak when they passed through the checkpoint, and the Erts were similar in appearance to the Letins, so the officials didn't notice anything unusual. The heroic brunette woman at the head was none other than Princess Leia.

As early as October 29th, Princess Leah and her valet arrived at the Simon Trading Post. They thought that after the West Gate Exchange Post was the city of Byrons, only to find that the West Gate Exchange Post was separated from the city by a high and heavy stone wall, and there was a checkpoint outside the stone wall.

After a day of inquiry, Princess Leah learns that if you want to enter the city, you must apply for a pass at the West Gate Trading Post. Princess Leah is an Elt, and the Elt Kingdom is an ally of the Byronic Kingdom, and she has the right to apply for an official pass. However, Princess Leah could not stay at Simon Trading Station for half a year, so she and her valet had to apply for a temporary pass.

On the afternoon of October 30, Princess Leah and her valet successfully obtained a temporary pass. They thought they would be fine with the temporary pass, but they could only move around in the Ximen Market area, and the deadline was only one day. In the evening of the same day, Princess Leah and her valet returned to the Simon Trading Post.

On November 1st, the valet inquired about new information. They had heard that in addition to the official and temporary passes, there was also a "special pass" called a "special pass" that allowed them to enter and leave the city of Byron freely. Princess Leah and her valet hurriedly went to the Simon Trading Post to apply, but the official said that there was no such thing as a special pass in our country.

The staff at the Stonewall checkpoint and the defenders at Stonewall belong to two systems, and the two are not under each other's control, and the defenders are not allowed to intervene in pass-related matters. The Inspectorate existed not only to deal with spies, but also to coordinate the work of the Inspectorate and the defenders, who had members of the Inspectorate in both the garrison and the Inspectorate. The issuing department and the inspection department still belong to two systems, the former is not aware of the existence of special passes, but the latter does.

So for the pass issuing department at the West Gate Trading Post, the special pass is just a rumor. In their opinion, there are only two kinds of passes for the city of Byrons, one is an official pass and the other is a temporary pass, and there is no such thing as a special pass.

Since the official does not admit it, Princess Leah and her party can only regard the information collected as rumors. Just when Princess Leah gave up her original plan and wanted to return to China, the valets inquired about new information.

It seems not to be a secret in the black market at the West Gate Trading Post that special passes are sold at high prices. This news surprised Princess Leia, since the existence of the special pass is not officially recognized, why would anyone sell such things in the black market, or sell them at a high price?

If this was just a general scam, it should have been spotted a long time ago. After all, you will know the authenticity of this kind of thing as a pass, and there are few people who dare to buy high-priced goods on the black market, and even if they dare not report the crime after the incident, they will use their own means to punish the scammer. The speed at which news spreads on the black market is astonishingly fast, after which it is difficult to carry out the same scam.

Princess Leah is a daring artist, and she takes her valets to the black market to find out about the special pass for herself. After two days of watching, she found that there were indeed people in the black market who sold special passes at high prices, but very few people came to buy them from him. As for the reason, it couldn't be simpler, because special passes are too expensive to sell, and there are requirements for gender, age, and appearance. Princess Leah is also well-informed, but this is the first time she has seen this kind of sale.

According to the seller, the special pass was not forged, but obtained by special means. He said that there was a special place to record the gender, age and physical characteristics of the owner, but they did not find such a thing on the special pass. Those who sold the special pass to the seller said that they did not know where the gender, age and physical characteristics of the owner were recorded on the special pass, but that they had met the owner himself and could provide more detailed information. Sellers must use this information to sell special passes, otherwise buyers will be arrested as counterfeits.

Princess Leah felt that there were five young women on her side and that she should not be able to buy a suitable special pass. I don't want the seller to say that there are more special passes for women than for men, so he can try to look it up and see if there are any suitable ones. It seems that the seller still has a lot of inventory in his hands, which makes Princess Leah feel surprised.

The seller took out a small notebook full of codes and looked for it for a while, and actually found the special passes for five people. The seller was afraid that Princess Leia would not believe him, and said that Princess Leia could send someone to inspect the goods first, and if the inspector did not return in the evening, she could kill herself immediately.

It was noon, and Leah sent a valet with a special pass to inspect the goods, and in the evening the valet returned. She said that the special pass was genuine, and in order not to arouse suspicion at the checkpoints, she did not dare to speak. After checking the special pass and carefully examining her appearance, the people at the checkpoint let her pass through the small door in the middle.

After that, no one paid attention to her, and everyone didn't seem to care where she went. She tried to get out of the sight of the defenders, and walked in a random direction, and the defenders did whatever they had to do as if they didn't see it. The valet felt strange and had the courage to talk to the defenders. The soldier was amazed when accosted, and always spoke with respect. The valet felt the need to try any longer, so she hurried back to the black market.

The personal maid went out as soon as she entered the door, which was originally a bit strange. But the people at the checkpoint acted as if nothing had happened, and just let the personal maid leave. When she returned to the Black Market, she explained the situation to Princess Leia. Princess Leah was even more surprised when she heard her words, and she pretended not to have enough money with her, and pretended to leave. That night, Princess Leah had four personal maids tie up the seller to the outskirts, torture him, and ask him where he could get a special pass.

The seller is very confident, and he is not afraid of Princess Leah at all, and even threatens Princess Leah that if he has any strengths and weaknesses, Princess Leia and her personal maid will not end well. Princess Leah thinks that he should have a backstage, so she tries to trick him, and then she makes a big news.

After making the big news, Princess Leah directly killed the seller, and collected the special pass she got from him, as well as a small book full of codes. After a whole day of deciphering, Princess Leah finally understood the code on the small book, and according to what the code said, she chose five special passes, and passed through the Stonewall checkpoint with them on the evening of November 4.

Princess Leah says that these special passes can be reserved for the Kingdom of Elt. Once relations between the Kingdom of Byron and the Kingdom of Elt break down, the Kingdom of Elt can use these special passes to infiltrate the city of Byrons. At that time, whether it is to destroy the local law and order, or to assassinate the head of the Byronic Kingdom, it will be easy.

The internal defenses of the city of Byron were so lax that Princess Leah used her wine to test the garrison of the officials' offices, but she, a foreigner, was not suspected at all and was sent back to the place where the envoys lived. Princess Leah happily said that the Kingdom of Byron was vulnerable, and she was 100% sure that she would take down Myr, so that the future Kingdom of Byron and the Kingdom of Tairong would be united by the Kingdom of Elt.
