Welcome to the alien city

Chapter 59 Giant Screen in the Sky

Chapter 59 Giant Screen in the Sky
  Above countless thousand-meter-high buildings, the clouds reflect the faint sunlight. On the aerial orbit formed by the rooftop platforms of countless high-rise buildings, the silver-white spaceships are like streams of light.

Above the clouds is not the boundless sky, but a much larger display screen, which blocks almost all people's sight.

An advertisement was playing on the huge screen.

"There are thousands of roads, and safety is the first priority. If you drive improperly, your loved ones will burst into tears."

The woman's face on the screen was overly enlarged, almost to the point of being weirdly distorted. Gu Li took a second look, and a subtle dizziness swept over her instantly.

She looked at the huge image on the screen for a moment, then moved her lips and read the name on it: "Yu Mingxi?"

Gu Li stayed under a track, hanging himself in the air with one hand, and then withdrew his eyes from staring at the huge image.

The dizziness just now seemed to be just her illusion.

The woman on the giant screen still kept repeating this sentence passionately. The aerial screen divided her face into countless small squares. With the support of technology, it was suspended above the sky.

Almost replacing the position of the sun.

Gu Li noticed something was wrong, but He Shiyi who suddenly disappeared from her perception made her come back to her senses immediately, and her sky blue eyes suddenly looked down.

Missing?
  As soon as Gu Li, who was hanging on the track, let go, her whole body immediately accelerated downwards like a free fall. Before she was about to hit the ground, she suddenly stretched out her cane and cut a deep crack in the hard wall, stopping the momentum of her fall.

With a soft "click" sound, Gu Li's feet landed lightly on the ground, and he raised his head to observe the front of the store.

Compared with the health product stores on the street, this store looks shabbier and more... informal.

The light sign on the front door reads "Jingjing Health Store", but when the lights come on, it turns into "RiRi Health Store".

She stopped in front of the door and watched a man wearing an old jacket come out wrapped in clothes, squinting his eyes with an... expression that couldn't be said.

Gu Li's expression was subtle. Was He Shiyi being recruited?
  She stood at the door for five minutes, and there were as many as six men and women coming in and out. Under the incomprehensible eyes of these people, she pushed open the sliding door covered with small advertisements with a mission.

As soon as I entered the door, a snow-white leaflet fell above my head. There was only one line written on the paper: Happy Home is looking for a partner.

Gone.

She put the flyer politely back on the counter in a daze, and met the eyes of the woman behind the counter. The woman with a fiery red fur draped over her shoulders blew a smoke ring at her.

The face, which was made more and more dull by the warm fur, smiled at Gu Li: "This is not the place where a little girl like you should come."

Gu Li walked through the smoke ring, stood in front of the counter and moved his nose: "Why is the smell of my things gone?"

The woman behind the counter paused slightly, her eyes fell on the weak-gene girl who was not much taller than the counter, and her pupils shrank.

The woman looked at Gu Li's sky-blue pupils for a long time, then suddenly gave an innocent smile and clicked on the price list on the wall with her hand holding the cigarette.

"This is our price list here. If you want to ask questions, little girl, please pay first."

Gu Li looked around and saw that it was a red price list for technicians. The font was a little faded, but the prices on it did not fade over time.

"First-level technicians are 10 points per hour, second-level technicians are 20 points per hour, and third-level technicians are 30 points per hour..."

Gu Li clicked on the communication on her wrist to check. It still contained the 100 million points that Eric specially called her before the trip. The funds used to purchase materials and her living expenses were all in it.

Maybe Eric and the others hadn't come out for a long time and didn't know that the outside world had become so inflationary. Gu Li looked at the price list in amazement.

A major health care company actually costs RMB 100,000 to start. She frowned and looked at the woman: "I'm not here for health care, I'm here to get my things back."

"Pfft-cough cough cough cough cough!!!"

The woman behind the counter suddenly choked on a cigarette and coughed violently while holding on to the counter. Then she straightened up and looked at her small body with disgust.

"Little girl, we are open to do serious business here. If you want to find something, you will be entrusted with 100,000 yuan. If you cross the district, an additional 100,000 yuan will be added. If you can't find it, there will be no refund."

There seemed to be movement in the room behind the counter. The woman waved her hand and the people inside stayed still: "Little girl, if you have money, we can start right away after swiping the card."

The woman squinted her eyes and looked at Gu Li's dress. Hey, she was still wearing a dress from decades ago. The material and decorative gems were really good.

Especially that communicator, Xigua's latest model, is now worth a complete set of original organs. The cost of surgery to replace the biomechanical internal organs is not included.

He's a wealthy man.

The smile on the woman's face became more sincere. Regardless of whether she came here for a commission or was found after something was stolen, she would first deprive him of a basic consumption of 100,000 yuan.

Gu Li closed her eyes again and sensed that after becoming He Eleven's generation traveler, the connection between her and He Eleven's body was deeper than imagined.

Her thoughts gradually sank to the sea of ​​consciousness, but her soul suddenly soared to an altitude of 10,000 meters. Gu Li "saw" He Shi's body sleeping in the castle of the alien city, and a small section of the shop disappeared in front of her.

After confirming the information she wanted again, Gu Li began to withdraw her gaze. As she passed the giant screen thousands of meters high, she seemed to feel something like a light on her back.

Gu Li frowned and opened her eyes, and the thing above saw her.

The pain from the bone marrow all over her body swept over her again. She endured the discomfort, and her pale face turned blue.

"I know the thing is here. If you don't want to die, just give it back to me."

The boss lady in red glanced at her with novel eyes and threw the sensor over: "I have been here for so many years, but this is the first person I have met who dares to threaten me."

"Little girl, let me tell you that threats are useless. I am a businessman and it will be difficult to get things done without money."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Li up and down for a while. The hand holding the cigarette made a fuss at Gu Li's chin: "Or do you want to be one of our own?"

"drop!"

Gu Li's face turned even greener. She was in pain now and couldn't get the nutritional supplements from her suitcase in front of this person. She just wanted to make a quick decision.

"I've crossed it for you and return the hair tie to me."

Her voice sounded a little weak, and she looked like she was about to fall, but she still stood unsteadily on the spot.

A trace of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes, and she immediately looked at Gu Li: "This is a clean and honest shop, you don't want to die in my shop."

Gu Li stared at her expressionlessly with his eyes open.

The woman unconsciously calmed her expression, shrugged, and shouted to the back: "Zhang Yu, give the things back to the little girl, you kid! How many times have I told you not to take things from old, weak, women and children!"

Gu Li calmly added: "It's stealing."
