After getting a rough idea of the world's basic information, 'ding'...
System 666: "Master, No. 15 Shao Qi has sent you a team invitation for the 'Enter the Dungeon' mission. Do you accept?"
Lin Xiaoman: 'Accept!'
My eyes went dark, and the long-lost motion sickness came again, but after all, the level was higher, only one level lower, and it was not that uncomfortable, just a slight discomfort.
When he thought of the original owner of 2S and the so-called extra gains, Lin Xiaoman felt particularly excited.
come on!
In the chat box, Long Jiujiu: "Come on, go!"
Shao Qi: "Don't waste time, be serious!"
Long Jiujiu: "Oh oh oh!"
Lin Xiaoman, who was diving and not making any comments, silently looked around the environment. It was obviously night time and it was pitch black. Only a faint light came in from the outside through the shoddy curtains.
With the faint light, Lin Xiaoman determined that this was a small room of about 15 square meters, with a simple style and no decoration. It almost only had a bed and a one-piece wardrobe. She was now lying on the bed, probably sleeping.
Being alone, Lin Xiaoman quickly looked back at his memory. There was no life-threatening danger tonight, and no one else broke in.
Very good, the environment is safe and she can receive the memory with peace of mind.
The original owner was called Ru Jiumei, she was 22 years old this year and belonged to the lowest class of people in the Federation. Her parents passed away one after another when she was in her teens because their life timers reached zero.
The original owner was alone, like all lower-class civilians. After graduating from school at the age of sixteen, he could not find a job and became a "low-income household". He relied on the welfare benefits provided by the federal government to every citizen and lived in public housing, waiting to die.
Well, this is the affordable housing provided by the federal government. Every citizen can apply for a small apartment of about 30 square meters. In addition to housing, federal citizens can also enjoy guaranteed meals, guaranteed clothing, and various daily necessities...
Anyway, the federal government will issue a living allowance to "low-income" citizens to exchange for the most basic living supplies, but it is only the most basic. For example, the monthly electricity and water consumption are fixed. Once exceeded, the water and electricity will be cut off. Either wait for the next month's quota or recharge yourself.
The federal government is to ensure that citizens will not starve or freeze to death. If they want to live a comfortable life, they have to spend their own money.
But spending money...
Not to mention having no money, the original owner, Ru Jiumei, didn't even have the qualifications to spend money.
The so-called money here is traded for lifespan using a life counter. Only those who have lived to be over 30 years old, or whose lifespan plus age on the life counter totals over 30 years, can transfer money to others. Those under 30 can only receive money from others.
It has to be said that this trading rule prevents poor people from being robbed, and also prevents people from using childbirth to make money... It can be said that it has prevented many vicious incidents.
Of course, there are always loopholes. For example, some bad parents make money by raising children. After giving birth to a child, they don’t have to raise the child themselves. They can raise the child for free by relying on federal citizen welfare. Then, when the child is 18 years old, if he joins the army and is selected into the explorer corps, the parents can get a huge sum of 1N.
The common currency here is 1N, which is equal to 1 year of life, 1M, which is equal to 1 month of life, and 1D, which is equal to 1 day of life. The minimum transaction unit is 1H, which is 1 hour of life.
In terms of consumption level, a 100-square-meter commercial apartment costs about 10N, and the price of a meal ranges from 1H to 1M.
Of course, the poor cannot afford to buy houses and the rich look down on commercial housing, so the real estate business here is not very hot.
The same goes for restaurants. Almost no one goes there to eat a 1-hour affordable meal.
For someone like the original owner, if he didn't rely on citizen protection and spent his own money, he would need at least 10D a month to support himself.
That's about it.
Uh, that’s getting off topic.
As a person with federal citizenship and a legitimate household, although she is just an ordinary person at the bottom of society, if nothing unexpected happens, Ru Jiumei can live out her days until her life timer reaches zero, and then end this short life.
But she never expected that because of having a rich boyfriend, Ru Jiumei fell into hell.
By the way, although this world has a special setting called a life timer, not everyone can live until the life timer reaches zero.
People can get hurt and sick, die from injuries, and die from illness because they can't afford medical treatment.
A few months ago, in the middle of winter, Ru Jiumei, who couldn't afford central air conditioning due to limited electricity, caught a cold and then had a fever.
In the citizen protection, each person has a certain amount of free medical quota per month, which can be used for medical treatment and prescription medicine. Ru Jiumei went to the hospital, had blood drawn by a medical robot, and received treatment in the hospital. However, until the medical quota was used up, the original owner's high fever did not subside.
Ru Jiumei was forced to leave, thinking that she might die of illness, and sat at the door of the hospital crying sadly. Then, she met a male doctor named Abel.
In the Federal Republic, most common minor illnesses can be treated by medical robots, but major surgeries, difficult and complicated diseases, etc. still need to be handled by professional doctors.
Of course, those who can afford to see a doctor are definitely rich people.
And those who can become doctors must be rich.
The blond and handsome Abel showed such concern for her that he treated her and even paid for her medical expenses. After a few days, Ru Jiumei's fever subsided, her illness was cured, and she fell in love with him.
And Abel was obviously interested in her and specially gave her a communicator (cell phone).
The two of them got in touch in this way, and within a month, Ru Jiumei completely fell under Abel's sugar-coated bullet offensive.
Not long after they officially started dating, Abel proposed living together.
Ru Jiumei, who had never been to a private residence before, hesitated for a few days. She knew she was poor and unworthy of Abel, but she was pretty, so she thought they could at least maintain a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship for a few years. Ru Jiumei didn't expect Abel to generously give her a lot of money. She only had less than eight years left to live, so a brief period of happiness and joy with a man who doted on her was enough for her.
Thinking this way, Ru Jiumei agreed, and then the two began living together.
One, two, and home run, that's what happened.
If it was just a scam, then it would be fine, just meeting a scumbag. In the open atmosphere of the Federation, this would be a small matter. But I never expected that it would be a scam.
After living together for half a year, Abel suddenly suggested taking her to a nature park in the suburbs.
Suburban natural parks are simply out of reach for ordinary citizens. Most citizens have never left the city in their entire lives, let alone visited a natural park.
Ru Jiumei was taken out of the city with great expectations, and then... to hell!
