Xia Chenghao looked through the window of the church, expressionlessly at the man who threw himself in front of the pastor and cried bitterly in search of spiritual comfort.

"Where are you going?" Wicker asked.

"I stayed in Valka, and now there are no hotels there." Xia Chenghao said lightly and sighed again.

Before he left the house, he put almost all the money and documents into the safe of the hotel, "So, I don't have any money to pay you now." ”

"If you want, you can stay with me for a few days." Wicker suggested, pausing before being embarrassed, "I live in Lavoli. ”

Lavoli is located north of Nieppe.

Xia Chenghao turned his head and glanced at Wicker, nodded and said, "Thank you!" ”

His tone was very sincere, so that Wicker couldn't help but wonder if Xia Chenghao didn't understand what he meant.

Xia Chenghao knew why Wicker was a little embarrassed, although there are skyscrapers or elaborate small buildings in the Mada Federation, but not everyone enjoys good living conditions, the poor housing area is very narrow, some cottages are only a dozen square meters, but they are lived by two families.

At night, some people have to sleep in their cars, while others go to relatives' houses to spend the night.

Others have no shelter from the wind and rain, and have to wander the streets, play hide and seek with the police, and spend long nights on park or station benches. In the bitterly cold winter, some poor people have no choice but to deliberately break the law, hoping to enjoy a little "warmth" in prison that they usually can't encounter.

With the construction of cities and the constraints of the Federal Law of Mada, many large cities have formed slums with concentrated slums, where the poor who have been forgotten and marginalized by mainstream society live. Lavoli is known as a black ghetto.

"I live in Lavoli. If you wish, you can come and stay with me for a few days. Wickel said slowly. This time he bit the bytes very accurately.

Xia Chenghao smiled and nodded, and replied, "I know the Lavoli district, thank you!" Go ahead! ”

Wicker laughed, and the car continued on.

The mobile communication terminal rang, Xia Chenghao knew that it must have been Fang Yaoqiang's call, and the mobile communication terminals that could get through at this time were not ordinary means.

"You're still alive?" Fang Yaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief, he was in Gath.

"Almost buried inside." Xia Chenghao replied in Mobo.

"Well, find a place to settle down on your own! Combat readiness of the Federation of Mada at the level of the whole federation. No one can go. Fang Yaoqiang's voice was full of nervousness.

"How are you?" It's rare for Xia Chenghao to care about his contact person like this.

"I almost got on that low-altitude shuttle, but I saw that something was wrong with those guys, so I didn't get up and escaped. Needless to say, there are too many people here. Fang Yaoqiang hurriedly said a few words and cut off the call.

The car stopped at the edge of Confederation Park, and Wicker hurriedly said wait, pushed the door and got out of the car and got into the woods by the roadside, and after a while he got back out with an extra bouquet of flowers in his hand.

At first glance, it was freshly picked, and there were two red roses in it. The delicate petals are not yet fully unfolded, but they are already exuding bursts of fragrance.

"The lady at the intersection likes to have flowers in the house every day." Wicker said with a smug smile.

Xia Chenghao also smiled. It's just that there is still a faint sadness in his heart, and there is still that Zheng Keer's calm face floating in front of him, and those blue eyes seem to be able to see his heart, as if there are many words that are too late to say.

After crossing Confederation Park, the car came to the district of Lavoli.

Lavoli is not a slum in the usual sense of the word, but it is also a prime location, with wide, wide roads lined with shops and shops. In addition to these legal ones, there are also a variety of illegal operations, such as underground lotteries.

And the residential area behind this prime location really looks a bit slum-like.

Most of the houses are row buildings, the houses are crowded and in disrepair, the garbage is so full that you can't bear to look at it directly, it looks really dirty, and the walls are glued with blue chewing gum and candy wrappers. Used condoms, eaten banana peels, drunk Coke cans, and more.

A homeless man pulls out a crumpled bag of popcorn from a crack in the street and rummages through it for leftover pellets.

Xia Chenghao quietly looked at the dilapidated building outside the window. There are also a few tourist buses driving by, and many cameras in the windows are shooting hard at the buildings, and it seems that the Lavoli district is a good place for tourists to take pictures.

"Isn't it strange why this is the way it is?" Wicker asked, many first-time visitors wonder why it had become a slum envelope so close to Confederation Park, while the rest of Confederation Park was home to the old and new.

"Why?" Xia Chenghao asked casually, in fact, of course he knew why, but Wicker's verbosity at this time helped to relieve the boredom in the hearts of the two.

"Five hundred years ago, the municipality of Yarmann announced the construction of a maglev train along Boulevard de la Rannox, connecting the southern district of Nieppo with the residential area of Lavoli. Like many cities that followed, the maglev train program set off a boom in building and attracted a large amount of tourist capital. As soon as the maglev train line was completed, the economic recession of the Mada Federation began, and the situation took a turn for the worse, when developers found that too many buildings were being built too quickly, and the real estate market was too hot and too high, so Lavalli quickly became a luxurious ghost city. ”

Wicker gushed about stories from several worlds ago.

"In order to get rid of the real estate quickly, they began to put down their faces and sell directly to civilians." Wicker began to speak sarcastically, but with a hint of sadness.

"When there were more commoners, the old rich began to move out, and then over the decades, the houses began to get old, and the poor people divided their spacious apartments into several units and sublet them to the new countrymen, and the beautiful mansions became noisy compounds. The law of the Mada Federation also stipulates that tenants are not allowed to be evicted, and as a result, such a low-rise settlement with piles of garbage appeared on the high-rise planet Flowery Glis. ”

"This is the Mada Federation, Hell and Wagagumi are so close." This is Wicker's final explanation, Xia Chenghao glanced at Wicker and felt that there was too much grievance in the heart of this civilian.

"Anyway, I have to thank the developers." Wicker burst out laughing, and continued, "My mom told me I wouldn't even have a place to live if it weren't for here. Because we can't afford to live in the city, and no one wants to rent a house to a poor family with a large group of children. ”

"How many children do you have?" Xia Chenghao asked.

"Yes, a lot! What about you? ”

Xia Chenghao smiled and was noncommittal. (To be continued.) )
