Chapter 536 Leng Lao



It only took Fanta a second to find Leng Junwen's location.

"Longevity Star, Manor No. 50, Baima Street, District 53." Fanta gave the detailed address.

"It's okay to be a little fat, actually." Zhang Jiajia felt bad for always bothering Wang Xiaohai. "I'm used to it."

"I have questions in my heart. If I don't clarify them, it'll feel like there's a stone weighing on my heart, making me uncomfortable," Wang Xiaohai said. "You don't have to thank me. I just want to find out the truth."

"I see. You have obsessive-compulsive disorder," the old professor interrupted. "Do you need treatment? The institute has some new machines coming in."

"No, thank you."

Wang Xiaohai left the research institute and flew towards Changshou.

An hour later, Wang Xiaohai appeared on Baima Street in District 53. The gravity of the Longevity Star was a little weak, but Wang Xiaohai didn't care. He looked like he was walking, but in fact he hadn't walked for a long time. He was walking in the air because he thought he could no longer walk on the ground. If he didn't float in the air, his body would be very heavy, and the friction between his feet and the ground would not allow him to move forward, and he might even sink directly into the ground.

"Manor No. 50..."

Wang Xiaohai walked past one manor after another. Most of the people on Changshou Star were residential, and there was not a single factory. After all, the land price was extremely expensive, and building a factory there would be a waste. There were quite a few commercial streets, but the things inside were shockingly expensive. Ordinary people who had worked on other planets for half their lives could only last a month on Changshou Star before they were penniless.

At this moment, people were coming and going on Baima Street, and wealthy women were showing off to each other. The establishment of the Black Mist United States had not affected anything. It only replaced the government, and did not plunder the property of ordinary people. Everything was still the same.

"My husband owns twenty five-star hotels on Planet Eight, and he's always accompanied by a fleet of luxurious hovercrafts when he goes out," said a voluptuous woman with a pearl necklace around her neck. "For some reason, the rules on this street prohibit all vehicles except those on the road. Otherwise, I would have bought a few cars and kept them in the manor."

"My husband doesn't have that much money, but he is a governor on the fourth planet and only runs a construction company there. I don't know if he can still be the governor after the Black Mist United States comes to power, but I heard that most of the original government officials have not changed." said a woman wearing a lace bowler hat, an aristocratic purple dress, and a designer bag in her hand.

Wang Xiaohai believes that famous brands and jewelry cannot cover up the wrinkles on their foreheads and crow's feet at the corners of their eyes. Wang Xiaohai doesn't recognize any of the famous brand luxury goods in the Ludo galaxy!

The two of them looked at Wang Xiaohai with contempt as he walked past them.

"Look at the linen he's wearing."

"I guess the total cost of his clothes doesn't exceed five hundred yuan!"

"I think this guy won the lottery by accident and took the opportunity to travel to Longevity Planet. I estimate that he will run out of money in a few months at most and then return to his native planet. Longevity Planet is not a place for ordinary people to live."

Most people on Planet Five judge people by their looks and clothing, using their vulgar perspective. But I suppose it's simply due to the pressures of life on Longevity Planet. If companies on other planets have even the slightest difficulty managing capital, the residents are forced to leave. The cost of living here is simply too high, unimaginably high.

Wang Xiaohai believes that people living on longevity planets have a disease: xenophobia. They reject strangers—perhaps subconsciously believing that every new arrival will displace a local. After all, resources and land are limited, and who knows if they'll be the next person to be displaced? It's like a car accident: even though the chances are low, everyone fears it.

People on Baima Street looked sideways when they saw Wang Xiaohai passing by. In their opinion, Wang Xiaohai's dressing style was incompatible with that of a longevity star. They thought that this guy was not coming to the longevity star to beg for food.

Wang Xiaohai doesn't care what others think - would you care what a psychopath thinks of you? When humans fill an ant nest with water, do they care what the ants think of them?

He walked all the way to Manor No. 50 and knocked a few times on the rosewood gate.

It's called a manor, but it's actually just a 100-square-meter, two-story cottage with a 200-square-meter yard. The yard is mainly used to grow vegetables and fruit. After all, supermarket fruit is shockingly expensive. A watermelon could buy a house on other planets. The door isn't a metal security door. It's not because there are no thieves. People's moral standards don't improve with wealth. It's because every street is monitored by Skynet, and the footage is so clear that you can even count your eyelashes.

"Who is it?"

An old woman's voice came from Manor No. 50.

"Excuse me, is Leng Junwen here?" Wang Xiaohai asked.

"Who are you?" The rosewood door was suddenly opened, and a white-haired old lady appeared in front of Wang Xiaohai. She was wearing a rose-red sweater, a red butterfly hairpin in her hair, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a hunched back, and a bent gold-plated cane in her hand. She was probably Leng Junwen's wife.

"I'm Zhang Jiajia's friend." Wang Xiaohai said.

"He's not here, he went out." The old lady said in a hoarse voice and was about to close the door. In her opinion, Wang Xiaohai looked like someone who came to borrow money. She didn't know who Zhang Jiajia was. After all, Leng Junwen had so many students in his life that she couldn't even remember the names of all the graduates, let alone their families.

"Where have you been? When will you be back?" Wang Xiaohai reached out and pressed the door to prevent the old lady from closing it.

"I'm going to Dinghua District to help people with their medical treatment. If you have anything to say, go and talk to him. Don't stand in front of the door, otherwise I will call the police." The old lady said as she slammed the door shut.

"Cure people's illnesses?" Wang Xiaohai wondered if Leng Junwen was a medical expert. He must be living on the Longevity Star with the money he earned from treating people. His fees must be extremely high, otherwise he wouldn't be able to afford to live on the Longevity Star.

Wang Xiaohai forgot to ask Zhang Jiajia whether her brother gave her money for her treatment, but he thought that he must have given her money. Besides, if her brother had told her, she would definitely have mentioned it. It seemed that her brother did not tell Zhang Jiajia about the money, probably because he did not want his sister to feel indebted.

Dinghua District.

Dinghua District is a top-tier wealthy area, as evidenced by the houses themselves: they're all single-family villas. The wealthy here not only own cars, but also gardeners, housekeepers, and servants! You have to know that living in a place with longevity is incredibly expensive, so anyone who can afford to hire extra staff is undoubtedly one of the richest of the rich!

Sun Bowu, who is asking Leng Junwen to treat his grandson, has an address of 3. He owns dozens of nuclear raw material mines in the Ludo galaxy and is a big energy tycoon.

Wang Xiaohai is knocking on the door of this energy tycoon at this moment.
