Regarding Ling Qi's "quibble", the staff of the monitoring center also had no choice but to end. Although hoisting equipment with energy traction rope is characterized as a violation, the factor that determines whether to punish is not the act itself, but the consequences of the violation.

If there is no consequence of loss, there will naturally be no penalty......

The Sky Survey slowly flew over Liebul's neighborhood, its huge hull casting a large shadow on the ground, attracting many people to look up.

Li Buer was also in the crowd looking up, he had already seen the Sky Survey and knew that it was Ling Qi's car, so he was indifferent to the discussions of the surrounding neighbors.

The complex is an affordable residential area with only four houses, each of which is only six floors.

In the Stargate Division, this is the most basic residential building, and there is no lower level. Families living in such communities are also low-income groups. They no longer have the official identity of Xingmen, but some of their ancestors have them, and they belong to the bottom of society that was born with the reproduction of the former "children of workers' families".

Stargate is not obligated to provide for the future generations of all employees, unless one of these descendants has risen to prominence and obtained official status in Stargate, or even if he is a "contract worker", he can bring a high income to the family, then he will naturally have the opportunity to leave this class and enter the "middle class" or even the upper class.

Li Buer is a strange man, don't look at him as a poor ghost in the circle of official engineers in Xingmen, in fact, no matter which society he puts it in, he belongs to the upper rich level, and the consumption of a glass of starlight wine is enough to build many of his own manors and villas, but he likes to live in this lowest-level community where living expenses are calculated by credit points.

Ling Qi drove the speedboat from the cruise ship to the community alone, and found Li Bu'er's figure in a crowd of people pointing at him.

"Young man, this speedboat of yours must be worth millions, right?" An old man pulled Ling Qi and asked.

He was numb to the huge cruise ship in the air, and it was far from his social class, if not beyond his conceptual understanding. On the contrary, he had a slight interest in the value of refitting speedboats.

"Hehe, almost...... Teacher, I'm coming! Ling Qi gave a perfunctory word to the old man and greeted Li Bu'er.

"Well, come up!" Li Buer's face was profound, and he turned around with his hands behind his back and took the lead towards the elevator.

He lived on the top floor, about a hundred square meters in size. This area is large enough for a person who lives alone, but fortunately the place is still clean and tidy, unlike Ling Qi's sloppy style when he first saw Li Bu'er. A full-featured housekeeping robot, the price is only a few hundred thousand credits, and Li Buer is not unaffordable.

Ling Qi took out two bottles of Starlight Wine from behind him, which he bought at the Stargate Bazaar on the way, although he came to drink it, he didn't really bring anything with him.

Li Buer's eyes lit up: "Haha, good guy, you kid has a heart, and you live up to the old man's painstaking cultivation!" ”

Your painstaking cultivation? Ling Qi didn't bother to roll his eyes, this guy's face could be compared to the strength of the hull of the Sky Survey!

"Teacher, do you know who is targeting you? In the future, if I can rent a spaceship stably, I won't come in to pick up the materials, you can help me send them outside the stargate! Ling Qi put the wine on the table and asked casually.

Li Buer had already taken out two glasses from the cabinet at this time, and while skillfully opening and pouring wine, he said, "It should be that bastard of Maiton." Hehe, he can't do this all the time, thinking he doesn't have to spend money! ”

He took a sip of himself first, closed his eyes and enjoyed it for a moment before handing the other cup to Ling Qi: "Can I help you transport it...... Why don't you lease a spaceship? With that broken cruise ship, you can complete several missions in a year! ”

The first time someone said that it was a broken cruise ship, Ling Qi was very uncomfortable, and said with a wry smile: "My cruise ship can continue to accelerate, although it is still not as fast as a super spaceship, but it can also be twenty or thirty times faster than the turtle speed of a conventional spaceship." ”

……

The branch office of the maintenance system is in Siem City, and Ling Qi and Li Buer slowly finished a glass of wine and drove a speedboat to a skyscraper in the center of the city. The style of this building is very similar to the headquarters building in the virtual community, but the actual function is different.

Ling Qi's so-called "check-in" was not an official procedure at first, but a habit formed spontaneously by engineers, and then gradually became an unwritten rule, the branch leaders would personally meet with the newcomers to encourage them, and play some internal video materials that could not be seen on the star network, which were used to increase the newcomers' sense of belonging and honor.

After parking the speedboat on the square outside the building, Ling Qi followed Li Buer into the building and went straight to the top floor through the elevator.

The top floor is usually reserved for leaders, and next to the elevator is a large reception room, Li Buer swiped the communicator on the access control, and took Ling Qi directly into it.

"Dear Engineer Li Buer and Engineer Ling Qi, welcome back to the 8972 branch of the Xingmen maintenance system, your appointment has been arranged, please wait for a while."

The reception room sounded with the welcome message of the intelligent system. Ling Qi and Li Buer had just sat down on a sofa, and a girl dressed as a waiter quickly walked in outside the door, smiling and respectfully saying, "Two adults, do you need something to drink?" I was able to provide juice, coffee, organic tea drinks ......"

Compared with the intelligent robot butler, the well-trained waiter here makes people feel very friendly. She quickly and clearly announced a series of drink names, but Ling Qi asked, "Is there any starlight?" ”

He found himself in love with the wine, and the price was not unreasonable.

The girl was surprised, it was the first time she had met someone who asked for a drink before the meeting with the leader of the Star Gate!

"Of course there is, but how about you invite the leader for a drink after the meeting?" The girl immediately replied with a smile.

"Haha, a talented man who completed the sixth-level task in the apprenticeship stage, passed the two assessments with perfect marks, I should have a drink with you. Xiaoyan, bring the wine! A hearty voice came from outside the door, and then walked in a man who looked fifty years old, in a suit and leather shoes.

The girl was surprised, and after a quick look at Ling Qi again, she went out to get a drink.

Li Buer showed restraint in front of Ling Qi for the first time, and quickly stood up and greeted respectfully: "Hello Director Zuo!" ”

Seeing him like this, Ling Qi also got up and said hello.

"Hehe, feel free!" Director Left waved his hand and motioned for them to sit down.

"I'm Zuo Yang, the director of the branch monitoring center. I have to say that you two have surprised me. Especially you little one! He pointed at Ling Qi with admiration in his eyes.

Ling Qi's completion of the sixth-level task at the apprentice level was too much trouble, not to mention the branch, even in the entire Stargate maintenance system, there were very few people who couldn't remember the names of the two.

After receiving the registration request submitted by Li Buer, the staff asked which branch leader to meet according to the routine. Zuo Yang had long paid attention to Ling Qi's process of completing the task, and took over the meeting as soon as possible.

He also specially retrieved Ling Qi's information, in addition to the assessment results, he also saw the online report related to the obese woman when she reviewed Ling Qi's identity, and saw Ling Qi's courage in driving the Tomahawk to fight thousands of armies alone.

But as a director from the technical field, he would not remind the people of the combat system to pay attention to Ling Qi, and he also liked talents.
