Chapter 550 Prototype
When Xia Yan and Xiong Xiong returned to the base again, they were shocked to find that it had doubled in size.
It used to be the location of a hotel, but now it has been converted into the only leisure square in the base.
There were artificial flowers, benches, and fitness equipment that had been brought in from somewhere all around.
Today is the gathering time set by Chu Wanfu. All teams have a day off, and red lanterns symbolizing joy are hung on the streets and under the eaves.
The road surface was cleaned spotlessly, and an aunt sprinkled water on it carefully. No matter from which angle you looked at it, it looked clean and tidy.
Live a good life, this is what the scene before our eyes is about.
At this time, a soldier recognized Xia Yan and walked in front to lead the way. Perhaps he had received instructions, the soldier deliberately took Xia Yan around the base for a long circle.
The design of the outermost shops is exactly the same as that of the Yinshan City base.
From this, Xia Yan concluded that if Chu Wanfu was not involved in the design, then the person who designed Yinshan City must have lived to this day.
If it was the latter, Xia Yan would definitely go over and shake hands to absorb some good luck.
There were more than twenty large sightseeing buses parked outside the base gate. They had three floors, with the top floor being open-air. There was a tacky big red flower tied to the front of the bus, and a paper-cut of the word "囍" was pasted on the window.
Although it is inappropriate, it looks festive.
People who post these things probably just want to use them to express their current mood and expectations for the future.
The windows on the first and second floors were wide open, and several unfamiliar faces peeked out. If their eyes accidentally met, they would separate in the next second, after all, they were still somewhat wary of each other.
Xia Yan and Xiong Xiong, who were escorted out by the soldiers themselves, immediately attracted their attention.
Taking advantage of the noise they made when getting on the bus, everyone pretended to be disturbed and looked over, creating an invisible pressure.
"Let's go to the third floor."
Xiong Xiong was guarding behind Xia Yan, and suddenly turned his head and made a face.
Two or three children were frightened and screamed, hiding in their parents' arms, not daring to look around, and muttering: "Bad Bear, so bad..."
As Xia Yan was walking up the stairs, he looked back and saw Xiong Xiong lowering his head deeply, with only his round, guilty head exposed.
She said nothing, walked up to the third floor, and found a seat near the front.
Then people got on the bus one after another, and all the empty seats were filled. After the last beautiful female soldier got on the bus, the sightseeing bus finally set off.
Xia Yan and Xiong Xiong put their hands on the guardrail and squinted their eyes to feel the wind blowing towards them.
There were exclamations and applause in the carriage below. I don’t know who started it first, but a group of people sang "Good Days" together.
"Today is a good day. Everything you dream of will come true. Today is a good day. Let's open the door and welcome the spring breeze. Ah~"
Amid the cheerful singing, Xiong Xiong shook his head and clapped along with the rhythm, his butt swayed back and forth on the chair, and his short tail spun as fast as a propeller.
Xia Yan almost caught a cold from the fan.
Halftime break.
"Hello."
The sudden sound made people panic and look around until they found a speaker next to their feet. The speaker diaphragm was still vibrating with the propagation of the electrical signal, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hello everyone, we are about to reach the city center. Please hold your breath and watch carefully. We are about to witness the prototype of the first building of a new era."
The voice was serious and meticulous, and Xia Yan's mind instantly appeared with the beautiful female soldier.
She must have been sent here to act as a tour guide.
But none of this matters.
Xia Yan put his hands over his eyes and looked into the distance.
She said "Huh".
Xiongxiong moved closer, "What's wrong, boss? What did you see? Why didn't I see anything?"
Xia Yan's cheeks felt itchy from being brushed by its fur. He couldn't help but hide aside and said with a smile, "It's because I didn't see anything that I was confused."
"Xiongxiong doesn't understand."
"Oh, do you see the area I'm pointing to? There used to be countless ruins there, but now you see, there's nothing left. It's just an empty space."
At the end of Xia Yan's finger, there was a very wide flat area with no buildings.
Buildings like libraries, supermarkets, and S stores are all gone, just like the top floor of a hotel has disappeared.
Xiongxiong stood up by holding the guardrail and stood on tiptoe to look into the distance. "Really? Where are the ruins? Where were they all moved to?"
The sightseeing bus suddenly ran over a hard object and jumped up with a thud. Everyone's buttocks rose from the seats into the air, and fell heavily the next second. The sounds of people gasping for air and pain echoed in the car.
At that moment, Xiongxiong was almost thrown out of the car, but Xia Yan was quick enough to pull it back, pull the seat belt around its round belly and buckle it again.
"Be careful, don't fall."
The sightseeing bus then became incredibly smooth, as silky smooth as a chocolate ribbon. Someone peeked out and exclaimed in surprise, "It's a brand new asphalt road! This road is actually newly built!"
Everyone leaned out.
In front of the car was a wide, flat, brand new road without any cracks or weeds.
The horn blew again.
"Yes, the outermost roads have all been renovated and rebuilt. It won't be long before brand new asphalt roads are spread across the entire island, making it convenient for all vehicles to travel to any location!"
"Everyone, please pay attention. Before us lies the city center that was once reduced to ruins. With General Chu personally leading the construction team, the tasks of clearing and leveling the site have finally been completed. Next, we will replan urban construction and build the first new type of city!"
At some point, the sightseeing bus had already driven into the edge of what was once the city center.
Xia Yan discovered that this place was not as bare as it looked from a distance. The foundation construction had already begun in several places. Workers wearing safety helmets walked out of the construction site, waved to the passing sightseeing buses, and dived into the silver-white door standing on the side of the road and disappeared.
"That's...?"
"Oh my god, it can't be what I think?!"
"If it's true, then life will really be different from now on!"
"Look ahead!"
Everyone immediately turned their heads forward. The view from the back row was poor, so they half-stood up and looked out the window.
Through the bright glass of the front of the car, they saw a door suddenly appear on the roadside one thousand meters away, and a worker wearing a yellow safety helmet walked out of it.
Everyone:!!!
The man seemed to sense something, turned around, showed his confident teeth, and waved again.
The proud voice of a female soldier came from the speakers: "As you can see, our previous means of transportation were buses, subways, and trains. From now on, our travel will be replaced by portals all over the island. It will be faster and save more time!
"It's foreseeable that one day, we'll be able to travel to all parts of the world through portals, easily realizing travel at any time!"
