Chapter 3: Dinner
The bus left the mountain area and arrived at the Insight City in about two hours. Insight City was labeled as the Eternal Planet’s most peaceful city. The main city’s population was more than two million people and the total population was more than 8 million. It’s on the East Continent of Eternal Planet, where agriculture, commerce, and s.h.i.+pping are the most developed.
The prisoners discussed things amongst each other while looking at the magnificent buildings and beautiful women all around. But everyone had already seen how ‘fragile’ the Beauty traveling with them was. So, no one dared to say anything perverted words at the ladies on the street and these hooligans showcased the best gentlemanly behavior they could.
After travelling for a distance of about 5 kilometers, the bus stopped in front of a warehouse. The warehouse security opened the iron gates and the bus entered inside while 10 guards armed with a.s.sault rifle followed the bus inside.
The Beauty then ordered them to get off the bus.
Among them, there was a man who was out of ordinary. He was about 1.85m tall with his soft golden hairs covering his cheeks. He was wearing white trousers and was dressed in a suit. He elegantly came forward from the security group and opened the door for The Beauty. The Beauty seemed accustomed to this; her left hand held his hand while her right hand held a cloth bag.
Handsome Man handed mineral water to her as he smiled and said: “You have worked hard, Cla.s.sical Exploration Company’s director is waiting for you, let me deal with the other things.”
” Well,” The Beauty nodded and walked toward the main building.
The main building had two floors. In front of the gla.s.s wall on the second floor was a 30-year-old man who held a coffee cup, looking at the 1st floor through the gla.s.s, he waved to say h.e.l.lo to The Beauty. But The Beauty ignored him; her walking rhythm wasn’t affected. Handsome Guy took notice of it and shouted while snapping his fingers, “Here.”
Then murmured one sentence to himself, “ How troublesome.”
The security guards escorted the prisoners to the side of the warehouse. The warehouse’s floor had paved mats, sleeping bags and there were thirty sets of very thick green clothes and trousers.
The Handsome Man clapped to attract everyone’s attention and stood in front of everyone as he casually said: “My name is Ding Ze, I am the deputy manager of the North Luna Office. On the invitation of the Cla.s.sical Exploration Company, we have hired all of you to go to a desert, looking for a lost city. A month will be the time limit, and everyone would be given 30,000 RMB reward. This is the form, fill it and give it to your leader. In this expedition task, the person who obeys the command can offset 10 years out of sentence but if you leave the program halfway, then be ready to face the consequences. We’ll take the train to the Karma Town tomorrow morning, rest half a day then go to the desert. Well, for now everyone can rest but do not try to leave this warehouse.”
Ding Ze left after saying that. There was four security guards with guns standing at the warehouse door, monitoring every move of the 15 individuals.
Cui Ming casually chose a position to sit down, as he picked up the form lying on the straw mat and began to fill it.
A 25 or 26 years old guy came to his side and asked: “Bro, what should I write in the column ‘ID Type’?”
After getting the job, Cui Ming got back his things, including his ident.i.ty card. Cui Ming took out the ID card and looked, then said: “Square Shaped.”
“My name is Xiao Jiang.” That guy reached out.
“Cui Ming.”
They shook hands, then continued to write down the information in the form. For example, emergency contact address, it had a clear description, like if you die the 30,000 reward together with the thousands of insurance compensation would be sent to your emergency contact person. If you didn’t fill in the emergency contact address, after you die the money would be sent to the Insight City charity.
Seeing that Cui Ming left this column blank, he asked: “Don’t you have a mother?” He was selected before Cui Ming so had listen to his interview
“Insight City is my mother.” Cui Ming chuckled, when he saw Xiao Jiang’s emergency contact person, he asked: “Ex-girlfriend?”. (Editor – haha he clearly said that his mother was waiting)
“Well,” Xiao Jiang let out a self-deprecating smile and asked while changing topic: “Cui Ming, Why were you sent in?”
