BXBX NOVEL Chapter 355: 355, Red Forest Town_1
The hover car’s anti-gravity system started up, heading for the town ahead.
In the car, Pi Dan looked at Su Yu in a pleasing manner: “Master, how did I do?”
“So-so.” Su Yu noncommittally shrugged his shoulders.
Pi Dan scratched his head, continuing to ask, “Then Master, why would you want Big Boss Moquli to come see us?”
“Don’t ask so many questions, you will know when the time comes.” Su Yu was too lazy to explain and turned his head to look out of the window.
The hover car had already entered Red Forest Town.
As a frontier town of the Raging Sun Empire, Red Forest Town is a very run-down town.
The quality of the houses on both sides of the streets of Red Forest Town and the sanitation on the main streets are even worse than most towns on Blue Star.
Actually, it’s perfectly normal that it turned out this way.
The Raging Sun Empire is the stronghold of the Right Party, and the core values of the country are selfishness and survival of the fittest, in other words, “Social Darwinism”.
In Sun City, the capital of the Raging Sun Empire, you can see pyramid-shaped buildings that reach over 3,000 meters high and single-person power armor made of depleted uranium and tungsten steel running wild on the streets.
However, in Red Forest Town, other than hover cars and a few electronic devices that are slightly more advanced than those on Blue Star, they have nothing superior to Blue Star. Even a little bit away from the town, there’s no cellphone signal.
The regional development is very uneven.
Red Forest Town has a low population. In the long run, the town can’t generate enough profits for the capitalists, thus it ended up this way.
However, Su Yu still quite likes the atmosphere of Red Forest Town. After all, he’s new here, and a place like Red Forest Town with very few surveillance cameras is suitable for him to adapt to this world.
…
After entering the town, Su Yu, looking at the signs of the shops on both sides of the road, asked Pi Dan, “Pi Dan, where can we buy cellphones here?”
The Skru people also have an electronic communication device, which works similarly to the cellphones on Blue Star, so Su Yu simply called it “cellphone”.
Pi Dan immediately replied: “Master, there’s a cellphone shop at the corner of the street, it’s the largest cellphone shop in the town.”
“Alright.” Su Yu nodded, “You go into the store and buy two cellphones to bring back. Remember, the best ones!”
Su Yu patted Pi Dan’s shoulder in an encouraging manner.
“Understood!” Pi Dan responded excitedly after receiving encouragement from his master.
…
The hover car stopped at the door of the cellphone shop, and Pi Dan got out to buy the phones.
About ten minutes later, Pi Dan came back into the car with two of the latest cellphones and closed the car door.
Heber, who was obsessed with cellphones on Blue Star, was thrilled by the sight of the new phones and couldn’t wait to use them.
She jumped out of the pet space, activated [Stealth] to enter the invisible state, and grabbed one of the phones.
Seeing Heber so excited, Su Yu immediately warned: “Heber, don’t get too excited, be careful when using the cellphone. Don’t comment on the internet, don’t search for sensitive information, otherwise the Skru people are likely to find us.”
“Don’t worry!” Heber waved her hand and started to decode the Skru language using Star Magic.
Although Heber is a kitten, she knew where the boundaries were. Su Yu watched for a while and saw that Heber didn’t do anything outrageous, so he opened the other phone.
Su Yu speaks Skru’s official language quite fluently, but for the written language, he only recognizes a dozen basic characters, making him illiterate.
Fortunately, he has Pi Dan at his side to help with the translation.
After turning on the cellphone, Su Yu first opened a map software and downloaded an “Offline Map Package (Global Edition)”, so in the future he could bring the complete map of the Skru Star back to Blue Star.
Then, Su Yu searched online for a guide to common Skru pets, and finally chose a furry yellow creature that resembled Pikachu.
Su Yu put the photo of “Pikachu” in front of Heber, “Heber, from now on you can transform into this kind of pet and move around outside. You should also search the internet for this pet’s habits, so you won’t give yourself away.”
Heber took a look at “Pikachu” and was taken aback for a moment.
But she still agreed to Su Yu’s suggestion.
Heber searched for a bunch of videos about “Pikachu” on the internet. After patiently watching them, she transformed into a fluffy yellow creature.
Looking at the cute appearance of Heber after her transformation, Su Yu extended his hand to pet her, wanting to feel her fur.
But at this moment, Heber jumped away with a small hop and turned back to say disdainfully, “Don’t touch me, your green skin is disgusting! Only if you go back to your original form can you touch me!”
Su Yu: “…”
It seems he was detested.
However, he knew that Skru people weren’t too appealing, so he just awkwardly scratched his nose.
Now the hover car is still moving through the streets of the town. Pi Dan turned his head and asked Su Yu, “Master, where should we go next?”
Su Yu thought for a moment, replying, “We go to your house and wait for Moquli to come.”
Su Yu’s original plan was to go to the town’s electronics market to buy some electronics that were more advanced than Blue Star’s.
Although the country had already seized a lot of electronics from the Lingwu Mountain base, it’s always better to have more of these things. They all have high research value, and it’s also feasible to give them to other countries for research.
As for now… Su Yu considered Pi Dan’s lack of money and his inability to easily cash in the gold in his possession. He planned to make some money first and then go to a big city to buy better electronics later.
Pi Dan was at Su Yu’s beck and call. He adjusted the destination of the hover car, and the car headed towards his house.
…
More than an hour later, Moquli, a mob boss dressed in a black bodysuit and wearing sunglasses, arrived at 283 Spin Street with a heavy heart to pay a courtesy call on Pi Dan who was claimed to have had an “adventure”.
He didn’t know Pi Dan’s background, but to exhibit sincerity, he didn’t bring any brothers along, except for the pistol hidden on his body.
Ding dong!
He rang the doorbell at Pi Dan’s house.
The main gate opened after a few seconds. Smiling Pi Dan greeted, “So it’s Big Boss Moquli. Please come in!”
Seeing Pi Dan’s face full of smiles, Moquli was slightly relaxed.
While walking in, he cautiously greeted Pi Dan, “Hello Pi Dan! Where’s your big brother Luna?”
Pi Dan shook his head with a smile on his face, “I don’t have a big brother now, only a master.”
At the same time, he pointed to the inside of the house.
“Master?” Moquli was stunned.
“Yes, our shared master.” Pi Dan answered warmly.
Moquli’s face stiffened, sensing something was wrong.
But before he could react, a walnut-sized purple-black light orb flew out from inside the house and quickly enveloped his head.
In a split second, Moquli’s thoughts were tightly controlled.
He fell to his knees towards the interior of the house and devoutly said, “Master.”
