Night Hacker Chapter 142: North of the city

Even a street dog like Lorna who hasn't read much knows that the world has been completely messed up by the era of extraordinary programs. Activating that black stone that Elizabeth spoke of was like opening the gates of hell, and all the devils came out.

Information goes wrong everywhere, and strange species and strange things emerge from it.

The wilderness is a particularly serious place, and because of the nuclear pollution left by the previous wars, and various industrial and biological pollutions later, many water sources have been damaged.

Therefore, these broken places are not livable, and it is difficult to develop and operate, which has caused the expansion of Liuguang City to stop.

People can only go to the twenty-nine districts in the circle called "Liuguang Metropolis", and they are packed to the brim.

This is one of the reasons why the rotten land in the Walled City District is worth a fortune.

"There are still some people crowded in the Bone and Blood District, can you believe it?" Lorna said so, her tone pretending to be frivolous.

Gu He didn't dare to take her words casually, this is actually very important to her, "That means the Bone and Blood District is a good place."

"It's so good, it's so good that if you go in, you can get an extra hand or a foot, and it's all free."

When Lorna was talking, the off-road vehicle was driving from the densely trafficked expressway into the vast and open cargo area, leaving the crowded city behind, but there is still a good road here.

"Cargo area," she said, "it's not a wilderness until you get out of here."

First is the expressway, then the ordinary road, which is full of all kinds of huge trucks.

Some trucks are too big, and they are filled with all kinds of goods. Lorna's modified heavy off-road vehicle looks petite and exquisite even next to it. The force makes Gu He's heart sink, so he can only drink wolfberry Water will be at ease.

He really had a shadow, worried that those huge objects such as boxes and paper rolls on the truck that seemed not to be tied and fixed would fall over, which might smash the off-road vehicle to the ground.

"The Anzhou Freight Railway passes through this area." Lorna added, chatting on the way.

"Go around from the north of Liuguang City, and connect this place with places like Angel City and Newland City. Every day, all kinds of **** goods are dumped, all of which are money."

Gu He soon saw that a section of the elevated railway of the Anzhou Freight Railway passed by above.

The off-road vehicles and pickup trucks drove into the "cargo center" with the traffic flow. The freight area radiated from this area as the center, and there were huge freight warehouses with no end in sight, as well as staff dormitories and shops.

Except for the sites in the eastern and western industrial zones, the goods produced by the factories in the various districts of Liuguang City are distributed from here.

The headquarters building of the Railway Bureau is also here. In the freight area, the Railway Bureau in charge of railway affairs is better than the Metropolitan Police Department.

There is even a "Railway Patrol" in the Bureau, which is responsible for ensuring the safety of freight railway transportation.

"The freight guy and the muddy pond girl are a perfect match. Half of the street rats in Liuguang City are contributed by them, and they also run half of the factory assembly line."

Gu He listened to Lorna say that the image on the street is not good, but almost no one in the city is as smelly as the freight guy.

These people are considered to have a legitimate job, driving for various companies, driving trucks, buses, and trains...

However, the drivers are high-level freight guys, and more of them are those who do hard work, carrying goods and cleaning up road garbage, which is the role that Gu He was almost sold by Brother Zhuang to fill.

These freight guys, the high-level ones live in the small cells of the super-giant dormitory building near the freight center, and the low-level ones live in crowded shacks, depending on their age and authority.

"What years of experience, what authority, it's just a cake." Lorna said, "I will die of overwork after a few years."

It's always dusty, and there's always the sound and vibration of freight trains whizzing by.

The living environment is too poor, and there are not many neon lights. In contrast, Kabukicho is really a world of flowers.

"I heard that Santo and Seth are developing some kind of computer artificial intelligence." Lorna mocked, "When it comes out, all these freight guys will immediately lose their jobs and be driven to the wilderness."

"Do you have a problem with the freight guy?" Gu He asked, seeing a group of laborers loading and unloading goods in the distance from the car window.

Those people were sweating profusely, and he felt exhausted just looking at them. They were better than street dogs.

"I am a mercenary, and I have done a few times to block roads and rob goods. The freight guys are very annoying. And, let me tell you, these people are not part of the street dogs..."

Lorna suddenly stopped talking, hesitated to speak, and then said after a while:

"Street dogs have dreams, and street dogs always have dreams. Dreams of luck, dreams of getting rich, dreams of sweet pets, etc., all of them are played to the end, but as long as they are not involved in drugs, they are all thinking about the future. The future is also the future.

"But the freight guys are different. They have jobs, but they also know that they will not live long, so they only live for a few years. Once people know where their death is, they will have no dreams and dare to do anything.

"It is said that half of the **** things in the muddy pond were done by the freight guys, but it has already been said less.

"Some unscrupulous freight guys still get some drugs from some lumps and sell them in the muddy pond. That's how those ignorant girls are ruined. Also addicted to drugs.

"There are so many dogs in this city, except for the bank dogs, the one I hate the most is the poisonous dogs, basically they die early."

Lorna spat, "Anyway, the freight guy is the bottom of the bank's mad dog, a mess. I know their fate is bad, but I just hate them."

"Hmm..." Gu He knew too little to comment, and his heart became more and more heavy. "Is the cargo area the northernmost?"

"Connected to the city, there is also a northern agricultural area, which is not connected to the city. It is further north and farther away. It is considered to be in the wilderness. It is full of various things, and Fenggu wine is brewed there. of."

As soon as Lorna stepped on the accelerator, the car accelerated.

Gu He looked at the goji berries floating in the thermos, "Are these goji berries too?"

"Maybe, it may be imported from other places." Lorna said, "There are so many mouths in and outside the city, and there is only enough land in the agricultural area. Those big companies, in other places There are also large farms in the area.

"The agricultural area is almost all assets belonging to the bank, and the farmers are all migrant workers. I don't know how my life is going. I haven't been there much. Anyway, I heard that there are farming fields, so I just It has become a fertilizer."

Gu He was a little horrified when he heard that, the wolfberry water in his mouth was no longer fragrant.

The monopoly of the bank is higher than he thought, and the darkness of this place has no lower limit than he can think of.

It seems that the more you go to the north, the more you leave the city, the more naked, rough and sinister.

The Walled City area is already a city of sin, the freight area further north is a hopeless place, and the agricultural area is definitely not much better.

"It's too difficult." He couldn't help but sigh, how did the goose manage to be so fighting.

"What?" Lorna glanced at him, and couldn't help laughing again, "Traveling, what are you doing with a stiff face? You just think I was talking nonsense just now, but it's actually nonsense, okay? It's just an urban legend. , I was talking nonsense to scare you."

She reached out and patted his shoulder, "It's not that serious. If you feel uncomfortable, just think about the Acropolis Mountain and Eden Lake District. There are many people in this city who live a good life.

"As for those who are not doing well, those are not human beings, but dogs that only bark and complain."

"Drive hard." Gu He pushed Lorna's hand away and said anxiously, "Slow down!"

In the evening, the off-road vehicles and pickup trucks gradually drove out of the cargo area and continued to drive north.

After a while, the traffic flow dwindled, the good roads disappeared, and there were only some dilapidated deserted roads, which were worse than those over the rotten mud pond.

There are no buildings on the vast, desolate and dilapidated land. In some areas, garbage is piled up. The strong wind blows the stench. There are dead plants and trees everywhere, but there are still some deformed trees that are still strong.

They have a coordinates to meet up with the Resuscitation Pioneers lead the way.

If there is no coordinates, it is extremely difficult to find a tribe in the wilderness, even with satellite information like the Metropolitan Police Department, because most tribes have "stealth devices", so the information captured by satellites is only a piece of information wilderness.

Of course, there are big tribes like the Herald of Recovery, and even strange objects, playing hide-and-seek with bank dogs.

Like these wandering tribes, who do things from time to time, if they can't hide themselves well, they won't live long.

But the coordinates are only a meeting point. The two vehicles met with several vehicles of the recovery team's rangers before driving to the real tribal settlement.

The sky gradually darkened, and for the first time since Gu He traveled, he saw such a vast and endless sunset.

The convoy was bumping all the way on the deserted road. When the night fell, the moon appeared in the night sky without light pollution, and there were many light spots, densely packed, but pleasing to the eye and full of stars.

"Wow..." Gu He looked out of the car window, and the weather is so good today that the sky is full of stars.

"Look, watch until you're full, it's free for nothing." Lorna already knew that he wanted the movement data of the zodiac stars.

Of course Gu He would not be polite. Looking at the stars, he thought about the knowledge Elizabeth had taught.

He also brought the blueprint she drew, and immediately took it out of his pocket, looked at the constellations and star charts on the paper, and looked for the position of the first house in the night sky.

But he is not an astrologer, and Lorna is even more ignorant, so in the end he can only look casually.

But looking at the vast starry sky and staying away from those neon lights for a while, he really felt very comfortable...

My heart, which was a little blocked after listening to Lorna's words, is stepping into this starry sky and relaxing.

He thought, Jane should come, since you can't see this starry sky in low-tech places, Jane should take a look at this thing.

If there is anything good about low subjects, this is absolutely indispensable.

There is also Xingtong, she should come too, her parents gave her such a name, that's what it means.

This is supposed to be a beauty that everyone can enjoy from childhood. The mystery of the night sky is only for children to explore~IndoMTL.com~container, program level: premium 35%, ↑10%]

Gu He could not help being surprised when he noticed the prompt from the console, but he also felt that he was comprehending something and adding some key data to the program. This mood of tolerance for the starry sky is another characteristic of the container.

At this time, in front of the headlights, among the stars in the night sky, there was a figure with silver wings flying towards him.

"Ha." Lorna smiled, and honked the car horn to say hello. Gu He could also see clearly, and Sakai Hanaqing, who was driving a pickup truck next to him, shouted excitedly: "Miss Chiba!" The guy is also looking at it.

As for Susui, who is leading the way, he will ride the vehicle, and someone will use the car horn to announce: "The guest is coming."

The delicate and slender silver wings showed a graceful flying arc, and Chiba Gibson flew towards the ground convoy with the night wind.

The big star who was once trapped in the screen is now a free person, she laughs in the starry sky:

"Welcome! Friends, you are welcome."
