The Sabbath Chapter 31: Welcome to Erni City
There are still no street lights on the street, and the cars around have no lights at all. Everyone is poor and can't afford light bulbs—Ronggui thought to himself.
Then, a light suddenly appeared in front of him.
White light, like the sun at night, when they suddenly appeared in front of Ronggui, he couldn't see anything for a while.
But before he could panic, Xiaomei's voice suddenly came from the next door: "It's not a malfunction, because the light source suddenly appeared, it will take some time to switch the visual mode."
Although it is a little hard to understand, Ronggui firmly understands that this is a normal phenomenon.
Sure enough, about thirty seconds later, he could suddenly "see" things again!
There is a slight difference in the texture of the scenery he "saw" before. It is not as clear as before, but the shadows and shadows are distinct. This is almost what he could see before!
Ronggui became a little excited.
Looking at the scene in front of him almost greedily, his eyes finally fell to the front - which is also the origin of the light source.
The light comes from the top of the buildings in front, which are five thin and tall buildings, which look a bit like chimneys. These "chimneys" stand in the middle of the convoy ahead. The vehicle management offices are very similar, and Rong Gui guessed that the functions of the two are similar, and they should both be public units.
Probably similar to a toll booth?
Soon, he thought he had guessed right.
Although the convoy moved forward slowly, they kept moving forward in an orderly manner, and soon it was their turn.
Driving Rhubarb, Xiaomei drove the car next to a chimney, the window of the chimney happened to be on the left side, and Ronggui was sitting on the left side of the car, so Ronggui just happened to be face to face with the staff there.
The woman inside was wearing the same ugly uniform of the same color and style as the previous man from the DMV, with the same ugly tie, but the hat on her head was different—the hat on her head was much smaller and more chic.
I don't know whether the difference is due to different types of work or different genders.
However, it was precisely because of the small size of this hat that Ronggui saw the cat ears on the top of the opponent's head at a glance.
Eh, is it a decoration?
Ronggui was stunned.
At this moment, the other party spoke to him:
"A pass is required for verification, please show it."
The accent of the other party is still a bit different from the language that Ronggui was poured into by Xiaomei, but he managed to understand it.
But! They don't have passes! ! !
You won't be arrested, will you? Ronggui immediately became nervous.
"We don't have a passport, where do we need to go to get it?" Just when Ronggui didn't know what to do, Xiaomei spoke.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah is this really good?
Ronggui is a little crazy.
But he didn't know of a better way, so he could only add a few words weakly: "Well, we just came out of our hometown in the country, and we don't know what a pass is, and we don't know how to apply for a pass. "
It's okay for Xiaomei to say that she is a native of the country, but he is not! He is a black household! Being alive for so long sounds like a lot of research value, won't he be caught and sliced?
Watching a lot of Frankenstein movies, Rong Gui suddenly diverted his thinking to bad places.
"Oh, it doesn't matter if you don't have one, just apply here, a pass costs 10 Nubuat."
The staff member said, stretched out his hand from the window, Ronggui looked at Xiaomei, Xiaomei took out two coins from the pocket under the seat, Ronggui took the coins and handed them out, the other party accepted the coins, and soon , the other party handed out two round things from the inside.
"This is the pass?" Ronggui was still a little confused when he accepted the pass: Is it so easy to get the pass? You don't even need to fill in the name and place of origin? Don't even need to collect fingerprints and blood?
Well, well, the two of them are robots now, and they don't want to collect fingerprints or blood.
"Yes, but since you only hold the most basic pass, the initial point is 1, so you can't go to other places, you can only go to Erni City."
"Huh? Does this lead to many cities?" Ronggui immediately heard the hidden meaning in the other party's words.
"Yes, different points correspond to the level of cities you can go to. There are roads leading to three cities, but limited to your points, you can only go to Erni, which requires the lowest points."
"Ah! It sounds like a very free city!" Although he was told that he had only one choice, this did not hinder Ronggui's imagination and yearning for the other party.
For a moment, the little robot actually exudes a dreamy feeling.
Erni "city" too!
Ronggui crossed his hands in front of his chest.
"Hehe, that's right, a very free mining city." Amused by Ronggui's appearance, the other party added another sentence.
"Uh" He seems to have heard the word minerals?
"Okay, please follow the road signs ahead to Erni." After a lot of time wasted, the other party issued an order to evict the passengers.
At the same time, the road sign ahead lit up, Ronggui took a closer look at the text on the road sign, it was exactly the words Platon.
There are two other roads next to it, and there are other words written on the signs above, but unfortunately the road signs are not illuminated at this moment, and Ronggui can't see them.
And just after they entered the road to Erni, several cars drove onto the two roads whose names Ronggui could not read clearly before. Turning around and leaning on the back of the seat, he tried his best to look at the road signs a few times, but Ronggui finally sat back in his seat when he still couldn't see clearly, and continued to step on the pedals step by step.
"That's great! Xiaomei, we're going to the city soon." Although the other party was a little worried about Erni's comment, Ronggui still summoned up his energy to comfort Xiaomei: "The staff just now seemed to say What kind of mineral city is Erni, it seems that the place is rich in resources”
"Our rhubarb is so pitiful, Xiaomei, when you get there, you need to find some good materials to exchange for some good energy for him."
"Of course, I will help you find it too."
"It's really strange, why is everyone not surprised by our current appearance?"
"However, I don't know if you have noticed, Xiaomei, just now that staff girl wears cat ears. These staff are very fancy. They change their ties and wear animal ear decorations. It feels like everyone is very fashionable. !”
"Should we also buy cat ears when we enter the city, so that we can look fashionable?"
It doesn't matter if no one pays attention, Ronggui is holding up the conversation of a car by himself, he is talking to himself, while Xiaomei has been steadily controlling the steering wheel and driving again Two hours later, the two small robots sitting on Rhubarb finally stopped in front of a city.
Pushing the car door, Ronggui got out of the car after Xiaomei, and walked to Xiaomei's side, looking at the city ahead, Ronggui didn't speak for a long time.
This is a bright and brilliant city. There are countless light sources in the sky that illuminate the entire city as if it were daytime, almost like daytime.
However, for Ronggui who has really seen daylight, this is a very "fake" daytime.
Those light-white ones are abnormal, while the cities hidden under the light are as cold and black as metal.
Ronggui heard the sound of a huge mechanical engine accompanied by various knocking sounds coming from the city ahead.
At the same time, he heard another voice——
"Reminder, the metal pollutant index in the air exceeds the standard, and the various indexes will be played below"
It was Da Huang's voice. For some reason, Da Huang's voice suddenly rang in his head.
Ronggui was taken aback, but soon realized that Xiaomei probably did it.
Because I still can't get used to the robot's body, I often miss some important changes in physical signs. Come on, this small modification is quite successful, but Xiaomei is very lazy, and the prompt sound actually uses the same version of Rhubarb's sound source. .
Ronggui's first reaction was to look for a mask, but soon, he saw his mechanical hand, although he was still a little unaccustomed to it, but at this moment he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The body of a robot should not be afraid of air pollution, right?
Metals, machinery, glare without a trace of temperature - just these things, people will not feel that this is a friendly city anyway.
"But this city is very masculine, right?" Even in this situation, Ronggui helped Erni find a good-sounding adjective.
"The country guy in front! Get out of the way!" At this moment, a whistle sounded from behind him, and when he turned his head to look over, Ronggui realized that there was a car parked behind him.
Different from Xiaomei who stood in a remote place, because he wanted to see the city in front of him in all directions, the place where he stood was a bit in the way. Although it was true that there was something wrong with him, the other party's attitude was indeed very bad. After speaking, the other party drove the car forward and rushed forward.
This is for Ronggui!
At present, it is just a simple robot, Ronggui's reaction is not fast at all, he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
Fortunately, the opponent seemed to just want to scare him, and stopped before hitting him.
There was a burst of rude laughter from inside the car.
I was still a little angry, but Ronggui held back.
Standing up slowly, Ronggui moved out of the way. Afraid that Xiaomei would do something wrong, he kept pulling Xiaomei, and then said to Xiaomei earnestly: "It's the first time we go to a strange place. If you are not familiar with the place, you can avoid causing trouble or not."
"The first time I entered the city before I fell asleep, I was not very calm. People said that I had a fight with them. In the end, I was beaten up by the helpers brought by the other party at night, and all the money on me was taken away. I robbed them all, and in the end I had no choice but to find a job as soon as someone fooled me.” He introduced his experience.
"But—" the voice changed, and Rong Gui said again: "I'm still very upset, I remember the appearance of their car, and when I look back, I will secretly blow out his car's tire."
Very boring way of retaliation - after glancing at Ronggui holding his hand, Xiaomei withdrew his hand, got into the car again, and he restarted the car.
