Siri was born in the southern part of the city that never sleeps, which is the most affluent area.

This planet has day and night, but the sun is very small and far away, and the satellites are big and round.

This causes day and night to be the same, always dark, with only faint light shining on the earth.

The origin of the city that never sleeps comes from the race of people on this planet, the flashback people.

The whole body is cut like a diamond, so that as long as it receives a little sunlight, it will reflect dazzling light.

This makes them fearless of the dark and can shine brightly anywhere.

Of course, this means that no matter it is day or night, there is no need to give the whole city any embellishment, and there is sparkling everywhere.

Some people must be wondering why people sleep in their rooms at night, why the whole city sparkles. The reason is actually very simple, that is, all houses have no roofs.

This is because flashbacks, what they are pursuing all their lives, is natural death.

It is their pursuit to let their lifespan come to an end.

And this is also a very difficult thing, accidents will happen at any time.

And as long as someone can achieve a natural death, the whole city will know the news.

The reason is also very simple, the answer is in their name: Flashback.

A flashback who died of normal aging will burst out all his strength at the last second before death, like a red meteor shooting straight into the sky, and then burst open at the highest point it can reach, and all the fragments will form A patch of smoke, and echoes of the man's life in shimmering dust particles.

It lasts about two to four hours, and those who can successfully flash back will definitely be blessed by the whole city, and relatives and friends will probably know which relative they are when they see the aerial screen, and they will be proud of it.

It is said that the flashback of the first king's good death, his fragments contain the figures of the people in the city, he is also known as the greatest king, and now he is in the hearts of every citizen.

So no matter where it is, all facilities and areas will have no roof.

Even underground operations such as mining are almost always carried out vertically.

All the flashbacks are only afraid of two things, they will not die well, and the top of their head will be blocked during the flashback.

The obstacles are huge for two reasons.

The first point is the fragility of the flashback person. While the whole body is like a gem, the hardness of the body is also like a gem. A bump may cause the body to shatter.Small shattering will only affect the quality of the flash dust at the end of life, but if there is a large area of ​​disability, it may not be able to lift into the air, or even burst into flash dust.

Many people have worked so hard to maintain themselves all their lives, but at the last moment of their lives, they unfortunately shattered prematurely.

And the second point is the lifespan of the flashback, which is also the reason why the flashback has no concept of age.

Some die well in infancy, while others die in old age but not yet.

A few years, ten years, decades, hundreds of years, even an old man has become a legend, witnessing the country from non-existence to birth, and even the rise and fall of the king, but he himself has not died well.

Of course, this complicated situation has also caused many grandparents to see that their children and grandchildren have turned into flash dust, but they have lost the ability to reproduce, and the white-haired people send the black-haired people.

Of course, many years of experience have told this group of flashbacks that there are signs before a good death.

The outside of the body will first become transparent, so that the heart can be seen red like beating magma.

It was the flashback's heart, and a red chest meant that a good death was near.

But the chest is red, and the time for each person to die is also different.

Some people die within three hours of being popular, others take days or even weeks, but no one takes more than a month.

This is all the secrets of flashbacks, and flashbacks are divided into ranks.

With money and without money, with status and without status.

The currency system of the city that never sleeps is called fluorite, a luminous stone.There is only a small area of ​​such fluorite, and it is distributed in batches by the king's heavy guards.

Fluorite is currency and can be exchanged for anything of value, such as food.

The king is the highest status existence in this world, and there is only one king in the city that never sleeps. In the early years, the scattered flashbacks were brought together through wars, and then successive generations inherited their father's business.Now it is the 63rd generation of kings, and some generals who accompanied the army back then are now knighted, that is, nobles.

The king will donate fluorite to the nobles every year, and if the common people want to get currency, they need to work for the nobles, which forms a system.

The titles of nobility are issued according to the ratio of fluorite, from big to small are king, duke, marquis, earl, viscount, baron, soldier, and commoner.

From the common people who have nothing to work for the nobles, the fluorite of the soldiers is enough to fill their stomachs, and each level after that is five times the fluorite of the next level.

It means that a baron can support five people, and a viscount can support 25 people.

By analogy, the alms Wang Jue receives every year is enough to feed 15625 people.

Of course, the population of nobles may not be that large, so it is enough for everyone to live comfortably.

Although the system is not very good, it has never been improved.

But after hundreds of years, a framework has been formed.

The outstanding ones among the common people will be promoted, and the lonely ones among the nobles will be forgotten.

The city that never sleeps is now stable and peaceful. As for the excellence and loneliness, what matters most is the flashback quality of those who died well in the family.

The civilians who have been busy all their lives turned into brilliant fireworks.If you have taken care of several generations of nobles and even royal families in the screen, you may be promoted by the king.

And a noble family can no longer see the flashback news of its good death. Over time, the king will forget the existence of this nobleman.

Without charity, if you can't get fluorite, you can only do things for other nobles, so as to earn fluorite to keep yourself alive.

Xi Rui was born in the family of Xizheng Wang, a proper descendant of nobles.

The wisest first king of the year distributed the four largest titles to the four kings in the southeast, northwest, and north respectively.

The four Zheng kings were also named after the direction given by the king, and inherited it as their surname from generation to generation, and guarded the four sides of the city that never sleeps.

Xirui is logically a descendant of King Xizheng, but he lives in the south at this time.

The reason is simple, King Xizheng had seven wives before his death.

There was a dispute when guarding the end of the Western Expedition Wang Shan, and everyone wanted their children to inherit the title of king in the future.

As a result, the family split up before King Xizheng's death, and this scandal turned into flash dust when King Xizheng died, and announced to the entire city that never sleeps.

The title of King Xizheng was finally taken by the second wife's son.

But after that, the title of King Xizheng, who could support 15625 people, was distributed to seven families in different proportions.

Among them, Xi Rui's family was reorganized after the separation of the seventh wife.

It belongs to the existence with the smallest population and the least status.

Xi Rui knew that the seventh wife of King Xizheng was his grandmother. After the death of his grandmother, although the Xi Rui family still had the surname Xi, they looked like nobles in the eyes of outsiders.

But in fact, after my grandmother died, it has been two years since the king donated the fluorite to King Xizheng, and now I am only living on the estate left by my grandmother in the rich area of ​​the south. to the last property.
