But I saw another candy stall, which seemed to also sell candies for constructs. I walked over slowly and asked the price. I found that they were very cheap. The ones sold to humans only cost one black card, while the ones sold to constructs required three black cards. I bought one for myself and one for Liv. Liv licked it carefully with a happy look on her face.
Afterwards I saw a shop that specialized in selling jewelry. These exquisite jewelry seemed to be in Kowloon. They were considered as women’s dowries, but married men also seemed to have to buy this kind of jewelry for their partners.
The people in the Sky Garden seemed unaware of this rule belonging to the people of Kowloon, but most of them were replicas, and a small number were brought back by the archaeological team, and the prices were extremely expensive.
But the owner of the shop seems to be a jeweler from Kowloon. I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before?
The boss noticed my unique gaze and called out, "This guy looks like he's from Kowloon, right? He has a very discerning eye. To be honest, I'm a Kowloon jeweler and currently a team leader of the Sky Garden archaeological team, Li Fei. We were in the same academy, but I only attended for two years and then left. If you're interested, I can give you a discount."
I smiled and said, "No, these things should be of this price. I'll buy one."
I turned to look at Liv and picked up a gold necklace. "How much is this in black card?"
The boss looked at the necklace in my hand, glanced at Liv, and gave me a thumbs-up. "Good taste. It really fits me perfectly, not too much, not too little."
I agreed and transferred the money using the floating screen. Liv was surprised: "Why didn't you hesitate for such an expensive item?"
I answered without hesitation, "I bought them for my teammates. Anyway, there are so many black cards. If I hadn't bought candy just now, I wouldn't have known that my account had 300,000 black cards inexplicably added to it. It seems to be a reward for completing the mission."
After saying that, I put the necklace on Liv. It looked really beautiful. Liv was surprised by my action. Her face turned red instantly. She covered her face, turned around and squatted down.
The boss approached me and said, "I know you were reckless at the academy and did a lot of confusing things, but don't you know? Even though it's a construct, she was once a teenage girl. According to customs around the world, your actions would signal to others that you're proposing to her."
What? I thought so? The people around him instantly showed their delighted eyes.
And some words were heard: "The love between humans and constructs is really expected."
"Such an expensive item, and he bought it without hesitation. This person seems to be the commander of this mission. He is really brave and dares to do anything."
Facing the pointing and talking around, Liv took my hand and rushed out of the crowd, but my legs couldn't stand it and began to hurt. Fortunately, Liv stopped running after a while.
But Liv hesitated to look at me, so I asked carefully, "I'm sorry, I don't know you. If you don't like it, I'll take it off."
Liv turned her head, her face slightly red, her hair flowing, and tears in her eyes: "No, I accept the commander's kindness."
The virtual sunlight in the sky garden reflected on Liv's face, making her look even more beautiful. To be honest, let's get married!
Suddenly, a construct waved and called out to us, "Would you two guests over there like to try the magic crystal ball to read your fortune? It's very accurate."
I don’t really believe in this kind of superstition, but Liv looked expectant. Do all girls like this kind of thing?
I had no choice but to walk over. The greeter, a construct wearing strange purple clothing, said enthusiastically, "Do you two want to test your relationship, fortune, or future?"
I just said let’s do it all again.
"50 black card, thank you." I paid and placed my hand on the crystal ball. The construct then pretended to look at it for a moment. "Your relationship seems a little strange. I can tell from this crystal ball that there are both men and women. Your tastes seem quite unique."
I was a little confused. “Huh?”
Liv lowered her head. The construct continued, "Your luck is excellent. The fact that you survived this mission proves that you are indeed very lucky. This should be very auspicious. Your future is also good, but there will be some minor problems. Okay, this gentleman has completed the test. Now, please allow this female construct to come forward."
I looked at the construct with half belief and half doubt, but he seemed to see through my thoughts. Before I asked him, he said, "My name is Fate, and I'm from the Sky Garden Art Association." I nodded.
Why are there so many performers in the Sky Garden? Liv put her hand on the crystal ball, and Fate began to speak again with her eyes closed: "Miss, your love life will be very successful. Your fortune will not be bad or good. You will definitely be happy in the future."
Liv thanked Fate happily. I was still wondering if her eyes were that sharp. It's better not to get involved with him. After saying that, she followed Liv and continued walking forward.
At this time, there were many constructs and humans surrounding me. I walked over curiously and saw a male construct with a big knife on his back and headphones on his neck playing a game. It was an online game. The human on the opposite side was fighting against him with a controller, but he lost without a doubt and gave the construct some black cards.
I look at this game. Isn't it that shooting game you used to play in internet cafes? I used to play it there all the time as a kid. Could it be another copy brought in by the archaeology team? I haven't played it in a while, so I'm going to show off my skills.
The male construct looked at me in my hospital gown and said worriedly, "Are you okay?"
I twisted my arm. “Not gonna lie, I’m number one at this game.”
