Chapter 101 Chapter 101: The Old Place

"Damn, who are these people?" At night, Thea came out of a high-end hotel and walked down the road swearing.

This blonde beauty wears the same round-rimmed glasses as La Tor, but unlike La Torre's elegance, the woman has a wild and fierce air on her, and she is walking down the street at the moment, kicking the stones on the side of the road with her 12-inch high heels.

"Bang!" The stones were kicked to pieces, and the toes of the heels were ground by the stones.

This is the sixth time her mother has introduced him to a blind date, and she doesn't know where her mother found these well-dressed beasts, they are polite on the outside, but they exude a hormonal aura inside, and the hidden eyes reveal a message that they want to fall in love with her, which makes Thea a little crazy.

The most hateful thing is that for the sake of her mother's face, she also had to endure the harassment of the other party at the dinner table for an hour, for Thea, having a table with these good-looking well-dressed beasts was a test of her patience, and finally she politely refused the other party and left the hotel.

"I won't be here next time." Thea rudely kicked a stone again, swearing in her heart.

Every time, she thought so, but in the end, when she saw her mother's tearful expression, she didn't know how to refuse.

"Ahhhhh Thea was in a state of endless trouble, and could only vent with a small stone on the side of the road, and a brand new pair of high heels had not been spent.

Suddenly, with a flick of her wrist, the microcomputer rang, and someone sent a communication request to her.

"Who?" Forcibly pressing her rage, Thea connected the communication.

"Oh, dear Thea, we had a great night, I'm looking forward to our next meeting, I've booked the Carterville Hotel..."

Hearing that it was the voice of the well-dressed beast before, Thea hung up the communication directly.

"This bastard dares to come back to me." Thinking of giving him the communication at the dinner table earlier, Thea was very annoyed.

Pulling the other party into the blacklist, Thea's last face to her mother was just before leaving the dinner table.

Walking on the street, looking at the bright streets, people coming and going, traffic flowing, after getting angry, Thea sighed a little, in this bustling city, the vast sea of people, but I can't find a dream Prince Charming, it's really sad.

As a person who practices martial arts, from the other party's conversation and demeanor, and the aura emanating, you can see through the other party's essence and heart at a glance, which makes Thea's selection of her sweetheart extremely strict.

Dreams are dreams after all, and perhaps only the illusory fantasy that exists in the heart can be called Prince Charming. If it becomes a reality, it will not be a fairy tale.

She is 32 years old and is asked by her mother every day, and she still has no boyfriend, which will cause her mother to worry about finding a blind date for him.

Thinking about my mother, too, is well-intentioned.

In addition to sighing, the microcomputer on his wrist rang again.

"Damn, why are you here again." Hung up the communication with a scolding spell, completely forgetting that he had just been blocked.

The unlucky ghost who was hung up this time was naturally Calais, and seeing that the communication request was interrupted in seconds, it was obvious that the other party rejected the communication request.

Somewhat puzzled, Calais sent out another request for communication.

"Damn, it's endless." Thea, who was standing on the overpass, looked at the traffic under her feet, still changing her mood leisurely, and at this moment the sound of communication made her very irritable again.

Without even thinking about it, hang up again.

Calais, who was hung up again, was a little speechless, and he couldn't figure out why he sent a communication request for the third time.

This time, Thea directly pulled Gale into the blacklist.

The skillful operation did not make Thea react, and this was the second number she had blacked out tonight.

When Calais made a communication request for the fourth time, he was completely unresponsive, and shook his head helplessly.

I went to La Tor another day, and I didn't bother much, Calais was more concerned about going to Hildefa.

After browsing the high-speed anti-gravity traffic shifts, the earliest one was also at 6 o'clock in the morning, and I bought a ticket to prepare to leave in the early morning of the next day.

At three o'clock in the morning, Calais was already on his way to the station, east of Tarakli, near the dry port.

The entire Tarakli has completed the fully automated transportation facilities, so to speak, 24 hours a day, it is a matter of the number of shifts, and there are cars at 3 o'clock in the morning, which allows Calais not to run to the station.

The anti-gravity traffic with more than two times the speed of sound runs through the entire road of Herm, extending in all directions, forming a transportation network, and the speed of up to 2600 kilometers per hour at this speed greatly shortens people's travel time, which is not available on Harman.

On the train, it is spacious and comfortable, and the service is considerate, which is a completely different feeling from a transport ship in space.

Through the window, Calais looked at the platform where people came and went, and everyone got on the train in an orderly manner, and the movement was very fast. It didn't take long for only the staff to maintain order on the platform.

"Hello, brother, can you change positions?" At this time, a blonde man spoke to Calais very politely, and Calais agreed without much thought.

"Thank you." The man spoke politely and smiled to thank Calais.

"Come, sit inside." The man said to a young girl behind him.

The girl was very happy, sat down by the window, and looked out of the window angrily.

Although the train has not started at the moment, it all seems to be new to the girl.

After the man put his luggage away, he sat down in the middle of Calais and the girl.

The man chatted with Calais enthusiastically for a while, which made Calais know that sitting next to Calais was a pair of brother and sister, the elder brother was handsome and handsome, and the younger sister was petite and cute.

"Did you go to school in Hildefa?" The blonde man looked at Calais, and indeed, Calais did not look old, as if he was forever fixed at 19 years old, and he looked very young on the outside.

"Let's go home and see." Although Calais no longer has a home in Hildefa, it is still his homeland.

"In this way, my sister and I are both studying there, I am already a junior in college, and my sister was only admitted this year."

"Are my brother and sister going to the same university?" Calais asked.

"Well, yes, her academic performance is much better than mine, hahaha."

12 hours is a long time, and most people spend their time browsing the Star Web or passing the time with entertainment on their microcomputers. There are very few people like Calais who talk to each other.

In the past, Calais was not good at communication, but under Magnolia's exercise, he was also a little more cheerful, although this time was not used for understanding, but communication with people is also a different kind of cultivation.

Twelve hours is not too long or too short, and soon Calais is in Hildefa. After saying goodbye to the siblings, Calais went straight to his hometown.

Without any luggage, Calais arrived at Hildefa empty-handed, with only a microcomputer on his right wrist and a dark green cane.

The station is not very far from the garbage dump, about a hundred kilometers or so.

Instead of taking a car, Calais chose to walk on foot and run all the way through.

The dump is located northeast of Hildefa, and the station is located on the eastern outskirts of Hildefa, in a close and short distance away.

The suburbs along the way are desolate and uninhabited, with only patches of fully automated farmland and greenhouses distributed along the road.

Running on the edge of the road, Calais's unscientific speed caused some vehicles to look sideways.

Most of the vehicles are autonomous, and few people who can rest can drive manually, and only a handful of people can spot Calais in the dark.

This is not what Calais cares about, galloping on this familiar land, Calais feels the taste of his hometown, this is the land where he has lived for more than ten years, and it is a land that has grown up with him.

All the way to the gallop, Calais came to the slum next to the garbage dump.

The slums are large and have a crescent-shaped distribution around the federal dump. It is said that one side of the water and soil supports the other side, and the origin of human beings is to rely on rivers, and today's slums are like the origin of human beings, relying on huge garbage dumps to pick up useless garbage to feed these humble people.

The people in the slums are all people who do not have federal citizen IDs, most of them are interstellar refugees, and some of them are extremely vicious criminals.

All in all, this kind of slum built on the periphery of the garbage dump, based on refugees, and the prisoners as the masters, has become a "feature" that the Federation cannot eradicate.

The federal government does not expel refugees in exile for humanitarian reasons, but it is impossible for people who do not have a citizen ID to come here, let alone enjoy the well-established social benefits of the federation.

People who don't have a citizen ID can't work, and if someone hires these citizens without an ID, they are punished by the government in both directions.

Every once in a while, the federal government would put a certain amount of supplies into the slums, but most of these were accepted by the slum bosses.

In many cases, it is not that the federal government does not want to take care of it, but that after the development of the underground power in the slums, the interests involved are becoming more and more huge, and gradually intertwined and inserted into the government.

The federation has been independent for more than 800 years, and if there is no internal corruption it is impossible, it is just a matter of measurement.

Many well-fed people think of people struggling in slums, complain to the government, and fight for their rights, but in the end, they all end up in vain.

There are also federal citizens who have been abused by people in the slums, and then under the banner of thinking about the safety of federal citizens, they are called on the government to eliminate them, but apparently this is not possible.

In the end, the government did not act, and these people still exist.

It can be said that on the issue of slums, the people involved are divided into two factions.

In order to show the opposition that people in the slums are harmless, there used to be a woman from the Harmony faction, so she went to the slums to track and photograph the bits and pieces of their lives.

But the woman's body was later found in a roadside weed, and according to the forensic examination, the woman was raped before her death and then killed.

As soon as the news came out, it only added momentum to the opposition, but the government still only took superficial action.

For a long time, the slums have been a cancer on many of the Federation's planets.

But perhaps it was the indulgence of the federal government that led to Calais today, and he was able to appear in this world.
