237 It’s Too Outrageous
There was not even a chair in the room, so Du Yue could only find a set of tables and chairs from the s.p.a.ce. The two of them sat on the chairs and began to exchange the information they had gathered. He Xing was out for a long time. Of course, he did not only pay for the room but also asked the lady boss for information.
“The two of them said the same thing. It seems that’s basically what base the second base is like,” Du Yue’s face darkened as she spoke.
“Mm,” He Xing replied. “They divide people according to cla.s.ses and require them to pay high entrance fees and taxes. All these ideas must have come from that interstellar person.”
Upon hearing that, Du Yue sized He Xing up curiously. He Xing felt a little strange after being sized up by Du Yue. “Why do you keep staring at me? Is there something on my face?”
“No, I’m just wondering why you’re so different from them when you’re from the same place.”
He Xing was not after power or money. He clearly had very powerful abilities, but he had never thought of establishing his own sect on the blue planet or becoming a king himself. He had never coveted the blue planet.
Why were the interstellar person from the second base and the king from the underground city so restless? He Xing smirked at Du Yue’s words. “I can’t be compared to them. It’s rare to meet someone as outstanding as me.”
Du Yue did not hide her eyes of admiration this time. “Indeed, you’re really great!”
No one was perfect. He Xing was not without any flaws, but his flaws were harmless. For example, he would sometimes suddenly say a few stupid words. Not only would such a flaw not make people feel annoyed, but it could even bring a lot of fun to life.
Compared to the two interstellar people, He Xing was simply too adorable. Seeing Du Yue’s expression turning sour, He Xing consoled her, “Don’t be unhappy. They were living a good life, but they just had to cause trouble. They deserve all the consequences. We’ve already dealt with that contractor, so we’ll definitely be able to deal with this one as well.”
So what if they were all from the same country? One had to pay the price for one’s actions. He Xing could not watch as the blue planet was turned upside down by a few people from the interstellar. If he did not get rid of them when they were not strong enough, the blue planet, which had been tormented by natural disasters, would only become more miserable.
He Xing’s words lifted Du Yue’s mood considerably. She nodded. “You’re right! For such scourge, every day they stay on the blue planet would mean another day of suffering for everyone!”
Therefore, they had to take advantage of the fact that that person’s power had not fully grown to get rid of them as soon as possible!
“Since things have come to this, let’s eat first!” He Xing touched his stomach as he spoke. “I’m so hungry that I’m all skin and bones.”
No matter where they were, they would not miss their three meals a day. Now that it was time to eat, nothing was more important than filling their stomachs.
Du Yue could not help but laugh out loud. “I can’t believe you know how to exaggerate now. It seems that you’ve learned quite a lot since coming to the blue planet.”
He Xing chuckled. “That’s true. We’ve watched so many TV shows and variety shows together! That wasn’t for nothing!”
At the mention of this, Du Yue could not help but think of the time at the first base.
The first base was not as prosperous and lively as the second base, but the people living there were much happier and more comfortable than Ah Ping and the others. Only there could they be called a big family where everyone could live a stable life. Compared to the first base, where the rules were too ridiculous and cold.
The next morning, Du Yue and He Xing left their room after breakfast. The two of them were each carrying a backpack. The room behind them, which they had stayed in for the night, had been restored to its original appearance. There was no need to lock the door. The entire building belonged to the hotel, so they would naturally take care of it.
Just as they walked to the front lobby, they happened to see Ah Ping and the lady boss. The two of them were having breakfast at the counter. The breakfast on the counter was very simple. There was a stack of black pickled vegetables and two bowls of seafood noodles without much oil. Although they called it seafood noodles, they actually only contained green mouth sh.e.l.lfish and roe, two of the most common things on the beach.
The lady boss and Ah Ping each held a piece of mantou. The mantou was yellow and not made of pure white flour. Seeing Du Yue and He Xing walking over, Ah Ping and the Lady Boss smiled at the same time. “Where are you guys going? Have you had breakfast?”
The lady boss asked them, “If you haven’t eaten, we can help you prepare it here, but you have to bring the ingredients over yourself. You can just pay us extra for the fees. The food I make tastes pretty good.”
