Chapter 57 Pets are not allowed on board [VIP]
Staying on the music island in the doldrums, Uta's knowledge of the outside world is limited to what is written in newspapers and magazines that are occasionally pushed ashore by the waves.
So for this sudden change, she felt more bewildered and confused than afraid.
Fortunately, Miss Khalifa was there, and she told her about the existence of 'Yale' and the series of actions taken after his appearance.
"Captain Yale sympathizes with the suffering people on the planet and wishes to create a continent truly filled with 'equality and order.' Although his initial methods may be a bit drastic, you must believe that this is all for the better integration of everyone here..."
Uta listened very carefully, but her brows were furrowed more and more.
Although she had not been in contact with outsiders for many years, she was not a fool and could see the change in Khalifa's attitude.
The other party previously said that Mr. Gordon's mind was controlled by the East China Sea Demon, but now he says that the East China Sea Demon is doing good things.
This contrast immediately reminded Uta of Mr. Gordon. In the past, he would not have abandoned her.
"We're at the station. Go get your ID card! There's a time limit."
Khalifa paused and gave Uta a meaningful smile. "Don't you want to fulfill Mr. Gordon's wish and give the victims of Music Island a place to call home after death?"
Uta's heart skipped a beat, and her hands hanging at her sides suddenly clenched.
Yes, let all the victims rest in peace. This is both Mr. Gordon's wish and the atonement she wants to make.
Without her, the Red Hair Pirates would not have gone to the Music Island, and naturally they would not have been attracted by the treasures on the island and committed such evil deeds as slaughtering people on the island and stealing treasures.
She wanted to ask Khalifa a few more questions, but she glanced at the time on the distant clock tower and abruptly said goodbye.
Uta had no reason to delay the other party's work.
On the other hand, she had spotted Mr. Gordon in the queue at the station.
The process of applying for an ID card was surprisingly simple.
Just by being scanned by light, a card with your own photo and personal information printed on it was produced.
When Uta took it, he heard the sound of the metal ball rolling.
"Your new job is an idol singer. Please follow the guide and report to the World Economic News Agency headquarters in Zhenju City. There, you will release your first song."
Before Uta could recover from her shock, the metal ball mercilessly told her to leave, "Next."
In order not to waste other people's time, Uta could only run to Mr. Gordon who was waiting for her nearby with her ID card.
Mr. Gordon behaved just as he had before, as if it were someone else who had abandoned her.
"That's great, Uta. You can be a singer now. You can sing your songs to everyone in the world!"
Uta was also a little happy, after all, singing was the only talent she was good at.
She also likes singing and has fantasized about her singing being heard by others and bringing them happiness.
But now that her wish has come true, she is somewhat unhappy.
Is it really okay to get the ID card? Can the man named Yale really keep his promise and help them bury all the bodies buried under the rubble of the building?
"Sorry to bother you." A lively and cheerful voice sounded.
Uta and Gordon looked at the same time and saw a young girl with a Den Den Mushi camera hanging around her neck waving at them quickly.
"You must be Uta." She picked up her work ID card and was positive and polite.
"My name is Alyssa, an intern reporter for the World Economic News. I'm here to take you to the headquarters for reporting."
Uta blinked and paused for a moment on the work permit.
Alyssa, 19 years old, is an intern reporter at the World Economic News headquarters.
Uta, who was the same age as her, looked at her warmly smiling face and felt a sense of goodwill towards her.
She doesn't look like a bad person, and she has the power of a devil fruit, so she can protect herself when she encounters danger.
Uta was actually very curious about how the metal ball would actually release a song.
It’s just…she is capable of protecting herself, but Mr. Gordon is not, and she is worried about being separated from Mr. Gordon.
Uta asked expectantly, "Can I take Mr. Gordon with me?"
Alyssa nodded readily.
"Of course, we just happen to have two extra seats in the car."
[The island group] is still in the development stage, and the vehicle factory currently has only three major production lines - bicycles, motorcycles and buses.
Bicycles are relatively cheap and are the choice of most people.
Motorcycles are very expensive and there are no dedicated lanes, so only a small number of people who particularly like them or need to travel long distances frequently will buy them.
Only large institutions or companies such as the municipal government, the World Economic Daily, and the Panda Clothing Company would place orders for buses.
In order to obtain first-hand information, Morgans was very generous to his subordinates.
He arranged a bus for each newspaper branch to facilitate the transportation of personnel and supplies.
Alyssa came here with her senior from the company to record the news about the citizen registration in Water City because of her internship assessment.
Uta was full of curiosity about the bus. After sitting down, she saw it moving on the road and looked out the window in surprise.
She had so many questions to ask, and Alyssa, who had passed the newspaper's assessment, was a very talkative person, as were the other newspaper employees in the car. They told Uta and Gordon a lot about the island group.
Almost at the same time, the Red Hair Pirates' leaders, who learned that Music Island had also become part of the island group, arrived at the station in Shields Town.
They bought two more copies of "The Complete Guide to the Islands".
There is a bus route map on it, which tells them how to quickly get to the Island of Music - of course, Jesus Bu is not with them, he is going to Xiluobu Village to see what is happening in his hometown.
The Red Hair Pirates have come at a good time. With the increase in the number of buses recently, many new bus routes have been added.
There are now almost direct bus routes between islands, which do not waste passengers' time by making detours within the island.
The car Jesus was waiting for was the first to arrive.
There are ticket sellers on buses that go directly to other islands. You tell them your destination and they will ask you to pay according to the distance.
Jesus gave the other party 50 Baileys.
Although he was told not to take the change, the ticket seller still forced the 5 Bailey coin back into his hand.
This experience was very novel. Having been accustomed to the openness of the deck at sea, this vehicle with all sides sealed (although the glass was large enough to see outside clearly) made Jesus feel like he was locked in a box.
Fortunately, in order to take into account the huge height differences on this planet, the box is very large.
Although it is impossible to accommodate giants who are more than ten meters or even dozens of meters tall, it is more than enough to accommodate people who are several meters tall.
Jesus' only thought now was to return to his hometown as soon as possible to see if the changes there were as great as here.
After waiting for another five or six minutes, Hongxiang and his friends' car arrived.
The Music Island has not been developed yet and there is no direct vehicle. They need to get off at Water City and then walk to the Music Island next door.
Who would have thought that the Music Island in the doldrums and the Water City in the front half - two islands that have nothing in common at all - would one day be put together.
However, just after Hongo got on the bus, an unexpected emergency occurred.
The conductor, keeping a proper smile, turned away Bunker Punch, who had a monkey on his shoulder, saying, "Sorry, sir, pets are not allowed on the bus."
The lethality of this sentence is too strong.
The monkey Monsta suddenly shouted in dissatisfaction.
Ponch also said quickly, "He is not a pet, he is our companion. I can pay him. He will not hurt others casually."
"Please don't make things difficult for me, sir." The ticket seller said helplessly.
"This is the rule, and we are responsible for the safety of others."
Punch was about to say something, but at this moment, Hongo called him and pointed at the roof of the car.
Punch suddenly understood and grinned triumphantly.
"Well, in that case—as long as he's not in the car."
The conductor was stunned and nodded blankly. Then he saw the monkey leap nimbly onto the roof and disappeared.
He was apparently lying on the roof of the car.
"...Okay." The ticket seller took Pang Qi's money, hesitated for a while, and finally agreed.
Forget it. Anyway, the employee handbook only says that people can't lie on the roof of the car, it doesn't mention monkeys.
After seeing this scene on the surveillance camera, Yale laughed and asked the elf to inform the bus company that they could launch several pet buses in the future to facilitate passengers who bring pets or do not mind pets on the bus.
Another him was watching a movie leisurely in the spaceship, but he had other things to do.
The tavern door was opened again.
Asbagu looked back and his expression changed immediately.
"Khalifa, why are you here?!" He clearly asked Khalifa to leave on the pretext of taking care of Uta.
Even if the other party has separated from Uta, he will go to the company headquarters, not this pub.
After witnessing how Yale forcibly took away Lucky's devil fruit, he was prepared for his final outcome, but he didn't want to implicate others.
"Kalifa is innocent and doesn't have a devil fruit ability. Please let her go!"
Aspago stood in front of Kalifa, ignoring the strange suspicion in his heart, and spoke earnestly.
Yale looked at him with a smile and asked, "Are you sure?"
Aspagu didn't hesitate, "Of course!"
Yale: "Even if her true identity is a CP undercover agent sent by the government, and even if her purpose for lurking for five years was to steal the Pluto blueprints, do you still want to ask me to spare her?"
As he was too shocked, Aspagu remained silent for a long time, and the suspicion that he had deliberately ignored became increasingly obvious.
Why is Lucci a devil fruit user, and why did he run away the moment he was brought to the tavern to see Yale? If he was controlled by Yale, he would not have needed to run away at all.
But if, as Yale said, the other party was a government undercover, then bringing him to the pub was most likely his personal idea, and the other party did not expect to run into Yale in the pub.
...But Yale is too strong and can easily control others. How can he believe who is lying?
