Chapter 224: Dark Cabin Area
Stephendo is only now noticing that there is a boy in the middle of this beautiful team. Typical oriental face, a little more than one meter and two tall, about eight or nine years old. He sat in the middle of the twin sisters, with an age-appropriate maturity in his eyebrows.
As a somewhat experienced guide in Niwan City, Stephendo could tell at a glance that the boy was the heart of the team.
"Yes...... Because there are many guests who come to Niwan City and do not want to reveal their identity, our company does not force guests to leave their identity information. I know where I can help you make a new set of identities, but that area is not a place for women and children to go casually. ”
Starlink's internal management is very chaotic, identity information is a big cesspool, and there is no way to sort out the information deposit of more than 2,000 years. Most service industries do not deliberately investigate the identity information of customers, because the records may not be true, and some potential customers will be offended.
For a travel company, it is enough to make a business and get the money in hand, and what the guests do is not something they should consider.
It's not something Stephando needs to think too much about, either.
However, seeing that the four guests, who were either women or children, and who did not carry any shooting weapons and only brought three trinket swords, were going to that kind of place, Stephando was kind enough to remind him.
Da Liang didn't speak, Sophia took out another cup of Sojing coins and put it in front of Stephendo, and said, "You can go wherever you want, don't ask too much, don't look at it, and finally take the money and leave." If you don't do it, we can change someone. Anyway, we don't have any identity information right now, so there's no way to pay you employment credits. ”
Stephen grabbed the two crystals and put them in his pocket, activated the hovering taxi, and said, "All right, this gentleman and three ladies, you can go wherever you want. I'm just a guide, just do my job.
Next stop...... Dark cabin area. ”
It is very difficult and expensive to build a city in the universe, especially since the wormhole station is all built in an extremely empty star field, and the cost of building a city is very high, so the airport city is spliced together using scrapped starships.
Scrapped starships are different in size, not the same in performance, and not the same in terms of internal equipment. The Mineral Carrier must have been rudimentary, with no lighting system in most of the interior. In addition, mineral carriers travel in harsh places for a long time with heavy loads, and when they are scrapped, various problems accumulate.
There are also some small civilian spacecraft, which have many functions and are concentrated, and the result is that the space is narrow.
These two types of starships, one cheap and one numerous, become the main part of an airport city. Fifty percent of the structure of an airport city is made up of these two starships, and this is the main area of activity for the citizens at the bottom.
Then ten percent of the structure of a city comes from knocking out battleships and interstellar luxury cruise ships. Even if they are obsolete, these starships still retain very superior performance, the internal systems are almost no problems, and the defense system ensures that the rich can enjoy their wealth safely in their own living quarters.
The remaining forty percent of the city's structure comes from the cracks formed when the starships are spliced together. After sealing, these areas can also survive, but this is the surface of a starship, no matter how trimmed it is, the space formed is very irregular. And it's so well connected that you can reach almost every part of the city. The labyrinthine structure caused problems in management, and over time, even the city's administrators didn't know what the areas were like.
Without management, it is easy to produce "bacteria", and with the growth of "bacteria", it becomes the dark side of a shiny city, separated by a thick ship wall are two completely different worlds.
This is the dark compartment area.
Eliza took Jessica and them to the upper-class community of Niwan City, where they tasted the special food, appreciated the customs of different intelligent planets, listened to an elegant opera, and experienced the great and glorious civilization created by Starlink.
Da Liang and the others drove on the increasingly dark roads in cheap taxis, and soon even the smooth roads were gone.
Due to the serious theft of energy in the dark cabin, Niwan City has limited the public energy output to the dark cabin area, so the lighting facilities in the dark cabin area are far from being able to supply the lighting needs of the entire area. It feels like you're always in the evening, and there's barely enough light.
The road is also extremely tortuous. Privately built houses squeeze the already modest roads very narrow, and sometimes taxis need to borrow city train tracks to travel.
Looking out the window at the backward houses and the rudimentary neon signs, it feels like a dungeon, never knowing what dangers exist in those places you can't see.
"It's hard to imagine how these humans, as surface creatures, could survive in this environment." The oppressive and chaotic environment made Julian, who was an angel, very uncomfortable, and she said suspiciously: "The star world is just a choice for the earthlings, and they don't need to endure this here at all. ”
Da Liang glanced at Stephendo, who was driving in front of him, and when he saw that he didn't react, he knew that Julian had opened the sound isolation barrier. He said, "What if his life on the side of the earth is not as good as here?" On the one hand, the development of the star world requires a large population, and on the other hand, there are limited resources on the earth side. In the face of limited resources, the popularization of intelligence and mechanization has brought about an increase in the number of unemployed, and then an excessive concentration of wealth.
If the poor want to survive, they can only enter the star world to make money, and then exchange them for the living materials of the rich on the earth.
A large part of the earthlings entered the star world because of the force of life, and not everyone in the star world mixed well. ”
Juliet broke the soundproofing barrier and said to Stephendor, "Hey...... This...... Stephen. Where do you live, I'm talking about the earth side, and I'll go to you for tea when I have time, sister. ”
If it was when they first met, and the beautiful woman took the initiative to talk, Stephendo would still be very happy. But now, he didn't dare to provoke these people who had just arrived in Niwan City and came directly to the Dark Cabin District. He said, "Miss, you can spare me." I'm a part-time guide for a taxi driver who makes a little money in Niwan City, and you don't want to go into our slums because you look like you're doing big things.
We're here......
Ladies and gentlemen, get out of the car and follow me closely. Don't stare at people and don't ask what you don't want to buy. If anyone is looking for trouble, leave it to me. ”
Stephendo pulled the car to a halt and pushed the door and walked out, and Sophia, Julian, and Juliet, who walked down, stood in three directions and surrounded the taxi in the middle with the hilt of their swords, and then Da Liang jumped out of the car.
This is a busy city, and under the waterproof canopy is a stall full of all kinds of goods. There are all kinds of firearms and weapons, there are parts of starship fighters, there is food, and more things that Da Liang doesn't know.
There were large numbers of indigenous slaves, and many huts with a pink shimmer.
