Qi Heng played...

Chapter 277

Chapter 277

Chu Xiu came here for the first time, so he wanted to walk around and take a look.

He shared this idea with Qi Heng, and after getting Qi Heng's response, he left.

Being in an area covered by the network, there is no need to worry about any problems. If Chu Xiu doesn't know the way or wants to go somewhere, he can contact A0 directly.

A ghost with the pseudonym A0 will help him.

Qi Heng stayed and chatted with Yan Ning. Most of the time, Yan Ning was talking and he was listening.

Most of the topics discussed were about the changes in District 49 over the past few months, especially the recent period.

Sometimes, what we learn from Yan Ning and others is more humane and realistic than the reports submitted.

The report only contains data, but you still need to experience it in person to know what the current gathering place needs most - Lan Yi and his team have actually done a very good job in this regard.

Otherwise, Qi Heng would not have left everything to them.

Of course, trust is trust, but necessary supervision cannot be neglected.

Private relationships and official business must be clearly distinguished to avoid things that no one wants to see. We should not be stingy in giving the greatest trust, but at the same time we should not trust human nature too much.

Reality is different from games. Now every step is like dancing on the edge of a knife. Qi Heng dare not be careless.

On the screen that only Qi Heng could see, there was an ever-extending walking track, and the red dot on it indicated Chu Xiu's current location.

As long as he wears a light computer and a terminal, Qi Heng can easily locate their position within the area covered by the network on Tianyun Star.

But this involves privacy after all, and he has no interest in being a voyeur unless it is necessary.

He paid special attention to Chu Xiu only because it was Chu Xiu's first time outside, and he was also somewhat interested in where Chu Xiu would go.

The current bird's-eye view of Area 49 is unfolded on the other side. With the help of satellite, the location of Area 49 of the No. 2 gathering place can be magnified, and changes in Area 49 can be viewed in real time.

There are many areas under construction in the entire District 49. From the satellite bird's-eye view, you can see some newly built buildings that are out of place in District 49.

These are basically given special functions, such as education, medical care, etc.

The area planned as the school area currently only has a few isolated teaching buildings and rough-hewn buildings under construction. The medical center has been completed and some basic medical equipment is currently being moved in.

Chu Xiu has been to all these places.

As soon as Qi Heng thought about it, the screen in front of him automatically disappeared.

He looked at Yan Ning, who was doing handicrafts while chatting with him, and thought of A0's new report on the plan for the cub shelter.

Yan Le is still too young.

Even though female Tianjia insects are much better than human children in all aspects during their larval stage, they are still too young at just a few months old and need to be looked after by an elder until at least one year old.

After one year old, the cubs will enter a period of rapid growth, at which time they are about the same age as three-year-old human cubs.

If Yan Ning didn't need to take care of Yan Le, she would actually have more choices, at least she would have no problem getting a job.

Thinking of this, Qi Heng mentioned this matter to Yan Ning.

Yan Ning was a little surprised, "Le Le is so young, can he be sent there?"

"Yes, this is a nursery designed for cubs under five years old. This way, you can have time to do what you want."

After Mo Nan and Lan Yi discussed it, they drafted a plan for him, which detailed the age of the cubs to be taken in and the target groups.

Initially, it will only be open to female insects receiving education in the education center. Later, as the teaching buildings in the education center are completed, the scope will be gradually expanded.

In this way, even if the female insects who have received literacy education graduate from the education center, the purpose of the education center can be immediately changed to accommodate insect cubs that are too young.

"The specific registration time has not been determined yet, but it won't be too long. Relevant information will be posted in the education section in ten days at most."

We have to reveal some information to everyone so that it won't cause confusion when it is announced.

"You can also follow the official account of the education department on the forum, which will update information in real time."

Yan Ning nodded and said with a smile: "It would be great if there really is one."

Female insects attach great importance to their young and have an extremely strong protective desire. If someone else were to talk to Yan Ning about this, she would hesitate.

But now it was Qi Heng who told this news, so Yan Ning believed him without even a second's hesitation.

While he was chatting with Yan Ning, several people who received A0 message notifications were no longer so relaxed because of him.

Zone 1.

One, two, three, four, four male insects got off a small passenger transport vehicle and stood in a row carrying their luggage.

The last person to jump off the transport vehicle was a one-horned man.

They were standing at the subway entrance of Zone 1. Like all unused subway entrances, there was a bright yellow cordon here.

"Come with me."

The unicorn walked in front, raised his hand to raise the cordon, and only put it down after the several male insects he brought with him had passed through.

"You've never taken a train before. Wait and see how I do it. Next time you'll be able to do it."

The four male insects looked at each other without saying anything.

After they received the news that they had passed the assessment, they were told to wait at home. A unicorn would come to take them to the destination and tell them what to do next.

After waiting for a while, the one-horned man came in a transport truck and took them away from their homes one by one.

The subway entrance has been built for a few days.

Once the iron sheet was removed, a little bit of the environment inside could be seen through the cordon, but no more could be seen clearly.

It’s not that there aren’t some male insects who are curious and want to go in and see what’s inside, but after knowing what the cordon means, everyone suppressed their curiosity.

Now everyone knows that the true ruler of the gathering place is Gray Mist. Even the one-horned man who used to be so arrogant and domineering has become Gray Mist's subordinate.

After the Gray Mist took over everything in the gathering place, they established various laws and regulations to regulate everyone's behavior.

Under such circumstances, even some male insects with bad tempers would not knowingly violate the rules set by the gray fog.

Follow the one-horned man down the stairs.

"This is the security check and ticket inspection area. You can buy tickets at the terminal or on-site using your ID card at the machine. If you really don't know how to buy tickets, you can ask the staff to buy tickets."

"But it's not in use yet, so the ticket purchase process can be skipped this time."

The unicorn used his light brain to scan the artificial passage on one side, the red light turned green, and the two pieces of the passage entrance opened on both sides.

The male insects followed the unicorn through the ticket inspection area.

After passing the ticket inspection area, I could see clearly with the bright lights above my head that it was a very empty space.

The flat, hard ground beneath my feet extended forward for hundreds of meters, with simple metal-welded railings on both sides and flat railroad tracks beyond the railings.

"You can check the terminal, download the [Star Travel] app and link it to your ID, and you can see the ticket purchase information and journey information for this time."

The one-horned man continued, "The tickets have already been purchased. They're paid for on a public account, so you don't need to pay any credit points."

Several male insects did as he said, and those who moved quickly even had time to observe their surroundings.

At the rear right of this underground space, there is a staircase that is long and wide enough for more than ten people to walk side by side. It extends downwards. Without lights, the part hidden in the darkness cannot be seen clearly.

"Where we are now is the train waiting area."

In the middle of the waiting area was a thick square pillar with a dark electronic screen hanging on it. The vertical distance of fifteen meters made them look lonely.

"In gathering place No. 2, Area 1 is both the starting and the terminal station." The one-horned man said, pointing to the location on the right, and asked them to look at the route station diagram hanging next to it.

"Go from Area 1 to Area 49 and wait on the right."

"On the contrary, when you return to District 1 from District 49, you will get off from the left platform."

Xing Travel App is a newly launched app with few users yet. It is designed to facilitate travel and also has a navigation function.

Some other traffic-related functions have also been designed and just need to be launched online for public use.

The few people present were honored to be among the few users who were the first to experience the functions of this app.

The unicorn taught them how to take the subway, telling them that after getting on the subway, they should listen to the voice announcement of the stations, remember which station to get off, and then exit the station and take the ground train.

"The underground train is currently only used within Aggregate Area 2. Stations outside the area are not open yet. The Central Hall Station you are going to is outside Area 49."

“Only trains running above ground will pass by.”

"There's only one round-trip train a day now. If you miss it, you'll have to wait for the one tomorrow afternoon."

"Don't get off at the wrong station and miss your bus time."

The one-horned man said, somewhat worriedly, "You all understand the information on the terminal, right? How about I go with you?"

Several male insects who were reading the information on the terminal looked at the unicorn man when they heard this.

"unnecessary."

"I'm fine."

"Thank you, but the instructions are very detailed. I think I can go on my own."

"I can do it myself."

“…”

The corner of the unicorn's mouth twitched after he rejected it bluntly. All male insects were difficult to get along with, especially those with some abilities, who all had different tempers.

To be honest, if he wasn't afraid of delaying the Doctor's work, Unicorn wouldn't bother to care whether these male insects could arrive at the central hall on time.

"Since you said so, I have nothing to say."

"My mission is complete, and you don't need me anymore, so I'll leave?"

The four male insects nodded in unison.

“…” I just owed him this one more question.

The one-horned man turned and left.

Only four male insects carrying luggage were left on the platform.

Before meeting today, they had never met or known each other.

Now they were alone, and they showed no interest in communicating. Each of them occupied a spot several meters apart, either fiddling with the terminals on their wrists or simply lost in thought.

"I say, are you planning to just wait like this without saying anything?" The speaker was the red-haired male insect leaning against the pillar, and he said thoughtfully.

"We're all bugs who have passed the online assessment. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll definitely be together in the future."

"The subway won't arrive for over an hour, so why not use this time to introduce each other?"

The red-haired male insect was not angry when he didn't get a response.

"Since it was me who proposed it, let me start first."

"My name is Ye Xiao, Ye means green leaf, and Xiao means high-spirited and vigorous."
