Chapter 88 Chapter 86 The End of the Prediction and the Future Part 3
If I had to describe the layout of this house, it would be 'consistent inside and out'.
Apart from a bed, a table and a wardrobe, there was nothing else in the living room.
Puis led him through the garbage on the floor and finally arrived at what was supposed to be the bedroom.
There were a lot of books inside, but they were also placed in a mess on the floor.
Only some light screens were properly embedded in the wall.
"Welcome, welcome. It seems you have made up your mind. I am very happy."
Abrey sat in the only empty space in the middle of the book. He was a very unkempt guy, and his hair looked like it hadn't been washed for several days.
The piles of garbage and cans make one imagine rats and cockroaches popping out at the next second.
Pomo felt the hairs on his back stand up.
But now is not the time to care about these things, and Pomer didn't know what Abre and Puis discussed.
"What resolution have you made?"
"I thought you had already discussed it." Abrey was not nervous at all, drinking coffee from the cup that had already become greasy. "To be on the safe side, you should talk to him about what's going on."
The voice is so elegant and graceful, but the people and the environment are so dirty.
Puis had already quietly opened up his own territory when he came in, blocking out any possible unpleasant smells.
Of course, I also helped Bomo, otherwise their expressions would not have been so calm.
"Mr. Abre asked us to go to the underground city to look for a woman. She was the stowaway. With Mr. Abre's help, she left the Hanging City, but now we have lost contact with her."
Puys explained Abre's commission very simply and clearly.
"He has no way to leave the Hanging City, and his actions are monitored by the Dome Army, so he can only use this roundabout way."
Pomo tilted his head, "Then aren't we also being monitored when we enter here?"
"Yes, but that's not important."
Puis took out a photo, which was the reason why they had to accept the commission no matter what.
"General Yun Shi?!"
The pink-haired woman in the photo looked exactly like Yun Shi, but her temperament in the photo could never be associated with that heroic Valkyrie.
"It's impossible for the Vault Corps to fail to recognize their general, so there must be something fishy going on."
Puis analyzed, and this is the 'clue' they are looking for.
Abree seemed to be amused. "Very similar, right? But she is not General Yunshi. Her name is Rixun."
"Hihiro... I thought it would at least be related to 'clouds'."
After all, Puis said that pink hair is basically something that only belongs to the Yun family.
"Once you find her, you can ask her?"
Abrey pretended to know nothing, which looked suspicious no matter how you looked at him.
What is certain is that the two of them will not refuse.
Finally, Pomer nodded, indicating his agreement. "I understand."
But the person he cared about most was still nowhere to be seen.
"Mr. Abrey, have you ever seen a man of about our age with blue hair?"
Blue hair color is relatively rare, and if you have seen it, you will definitely have an impression of it.
"I seldom go out. Do you expect me to go out?" Abrey smiled, looking so mean no matter how you looked at him.
He is the most nerdy person. Apart from the things he should know, even if he 'knows' he would still say 'I don't know'.
"Okay..." This is another lifestyle that he couldn't quite understand. Pomer showed his respect. "Then Mr. Abre, do you want to leave the Hanging City?"
The smile on Abrey's face froze. "Who told you this?"
Pomer didn't answer. "So you know, right?"
Now it was Puis' turn to be confused. Why did he suddenly talk about leaving the Hanging City?
The man's unruly look finally disappeared. He sat up straight and looked at Pomo and Puis very seriously.
"It is extremely dangerous to discuss 'leaving' in the Suspended Castle. However, in return for your willingness to accept my commission, I will tell you why."
Pomo swallowed and felt that the atmosphere suddenly became serious.
Abre started with a question.
"You must know that residents of the Suspended City can enjoy free education and medical care, free food, clothing, housing, and even free entertainment, right?"
Pomo nodded. Anyone who did not belong here would definitely express envy when hearing this.
"This is the right enjoyed by residents of the Hanging City, but what comes with this right?"
Abrey extended his index finger. What is the [two] that accompanies [one]?
"It's an obligation." Puis responded immediately.
Abrey nodded in satisfaction. "Yes, rights always come with obligations. While enjoying the rights you deserve, you must also fulfill your obligations."
And in the Suspended City, what obligations do ordinary residents who enjoy such preferential treatment need to fulfill?
"Men must join the Dome Army when they reach adulthood, and they will be assigned to get married after they retire. By the way, women have a fertility quota, usually three. If you want to leave the Hanging City, there is only one way, and that is to convert all the rights you have enjoyed in the past into an equal amount of money and return it to the Hanging City."
This part was "naturally" ignored in the external publicity of the Hanging City of Siper, and all people could see was the bright and beautiful surface.
Only then did Pomo understand why the little girl needed money, because she needed enough money to take her mother away.
Abrey was quite satisfied with the expressions of the two boys, "But the pure Xiper people can't leave Xiper, and the curse has not been completely eliminated, so for this little 'right', what's wrong with fulfilling the 'obligation'~"
The seemingly reasonable "exchange" was actually calculated since birth.
Pu Yisike has not forgotten Yunrou who is still in Shennan. This proves that such a policy is actually aimed at ordinary people in Xuankong City who have already lost their power.
Higher-class enjoyment naturally requires countless people to provide it.
It's worse than I imagined.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. The mission of finding Miss Rixun is now in your hands."
Abrey picked up an unopened can from the side as easily as if he had thrown away a huge pot, and pried it open with his tetanus blade.
"Then we will leave now, Mr. Abrey."
"Have a good walk! By the way, if you have time, please help me take out the trash at the door!"
If the garbage has been packed up, it’s okay to throw it away. But if it’s all loose pieces, do we still need to clean it up?
Puis pretended not to hear and walked away with Pomo.
Abrey spread his hands helplessly.
"How stingy."
——
After leaving Nurgle Castle, the normal air feels like it has a fresh fragrance.
But whenever he thought about it he still felt like bugs were crawling all over his body. Puis shuddered and patted his sleeves.
“What a terrible environment...”
Pomo also had a hard life when he was a child, but being poor and being lazy are two different things.
"Okay, let's find a way to get to the dungeon."
"How do we get down?"
Puis pulled out the terminal.
"Looking for Yun Xiangmei."
The Yun family is the ceiling of this suspended city. Even if they are not in power, it is easier and faster than for them to sneak around like flies with their heads covered.
As for whether Yun Xiangmei will agree, this question should not be considered.
"By the way, that little girl has been here, right?"
"Yeah, I asked her what she wanted the money for, and she said she wanted to take her mother away from the Hanging City."
No wonder he felt strange. This was the first time Puis had heard about the "rights" and "obligations" of the Hanging Castle.
Being born here, everything in the future is already "destined". Even if you have no worries about food and clothing, isn't it the case that you have lost your future?
Because of the pollution from the alien world, Siper was inconvenient to enter and exit, and had long been abandoned by Saint Snow, so everything here is close to autonomous.
"I was already under the influence of the curse, and now I have an additional 'obligation'..."
Puis sighed, unable to explain the complex emotions he was feeling.
Trapped in this cage-like hanging castle for a lifetime, or worse, underground, unable to leave.
It seemed as if Pomo's reaction arc took a long time to come to his senses.
"Didn't Yun Rou leave Xuankong City?"
Pu Yisi smiled helplessly, "The obligations we are talking about are for ordinary people here, but Yun Rou is a member of the Yun family."
Pomo frowned incomprehensibly.
"...All right."
Yun Xiangmei arrived very quickly. He simply put aside all his other tasks and came to see them. He looked extremely happy.
He really regarded Bo Mo and Pu Yi Si as very important brothers (of course for Yun Rou's sake). Even if they wanted the sun in the sky to turn into the moon, Yun Xiangmei could help them do it.
"But what's so good about the underground city? It's hot and crowded there." Yun Xiangmei went down there once out of curiosity a few years ago with the dome transport team, but she came back without even walking out of the elevator door.
"We are not going there for a visit. We are here on a commission."
Bomo is not the right path.
Yun Xiangmei didn't care what they were doing, as long as they could help.
"Okay, it's a commission. How soon will you leave? I can inform the people from the Dome Transportation Department in advance."
"The sooner the better."
"That's tonight. The transportation department takes about three days to go back and forth, and they leave twice a week. I'll make arrangements now, and I'll arrange for someone to pick you up tonight."
Yun Xiangmei made all the arrangements without any further ado and was extremely reliable.
He didn't ask what the specific commission was, and he didn't know whether he really trusted them or was just so naive.
It was convenient for Pomo and Puis.
"By the way, do you need me to arrange for someone to go with you? The security down there is not as good as it is here."
Yun Xiangmei is just like a logistics minister, giving everyone whatever they want.
Pomer smiled.
"That's not necessary. Thank you, Senior Yun Xiangmei."
