Cold Planet
Cheng Jin was very worried about the safety of the people in the train, but he was timid, and it was impossible for him to go back. He could only hope that the military personnel would be able to rescue those people.
They stopped at a dilapidated station. After coming out of the small shuttle, Cheng Jin realized that the thing was really small. It was a miracle that they could squeeze the four of them. And the second thing he felt was cold.
Very cold.
Because it was winter when he set off from the empire planet, the clothes he wore were not thin, but now he was blown by the cold wind, his whole body was blown through, and his teeth were trembling, he couldn’t help but shivered and said, “Why is it so cold…”
“This is the north. The Hell Planet is originally the northernmost place, farthest from the sun. Eight months of the year are cold winters, and the remaining four months are not so cold winters.” Cheng Xu said.
Cheng Jin was stunned, “Brother, how do you know so clearly?”
Cheng Xu said quietly: “I thought I was coming here, so I checked in advance.”
Cheng Jin was taken aback again, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart. When he didn’t know what to say, Tata waved at them, “I’m leaving, goodbye.”
“Where are you going?” Cheng Jin was a little worried.
Tata smiled and said: “Of course I was looking for my friends. At this time, the military department should send someone. Maybe on the experimental planet. I’m going to help.”
The Cheng family all thanked him solemnly. Cheng Jin even wanted to give him some gifts. As soon as he was about to open the suitcase, Tata said, “No need.”
Cheng Jin had to give up, but Cheng Xu said, “I have a candy in my pocket. Would you like that?” He walked over and gave the content in his pocket to the other party, and at the same time whispered something to the other party. Tata tilted his head and looked at him, nodded after a moment, stripped the candy he had given him, threw it into his mouth, and chewed happily.
After bidding farewell to Tata, Cheng Jin felt cold again, and Cheng Zheng couldn’t stand it. Cheng Xu said, “Let’s put on a lot of clothes first, then buy some warm clothes, and by the way, find out how to get to Planet 29.”
Cheng Jin nodded, but soon his expression changed, “Brother, we have no money!” Their communicators were all left on the train, and the Empire Planet uses electronic money. It can be said that it is difficult to move away from the communicator.
Cheng Xu didn’t panic. He said, “I exchanged the banknotes before I left. Although they can’t be used directly here, we can go to the bank to exchange local money.”
“Ah, brother, you are so thoughtful, you even thought of this.”
Cheng Xu smiled slightly, but didn’t say that he originally planned to abandon the communicator.
He has to flee from Yanqi, so he can’t wear that thing anymore. He expects to take off that thing after getting off the car in Trade Planet. In this case, even if Yanqi finds out that he is missing and has bought the relationship, he cannot pass the communicator. The transmitted signal will know his location. And he prepared the paper money to avoid leaving traces that are so easy to find during the journey.
But now this move saved them.
The three of them put on all the clothes they could wear, and then walked to the place where there were buildings on the street. Cheng Jin didn’t know much about the planet of hell before, but the name alone left a mark of “It’s terrible here” in his heart, so walking here is all anxious, for fear that there will be a criminal ready to rob them.
But they walked straight to the center of the street and didn’t meet anyone. The houses and shops next to the street were also normal. Except that the doors were closed, it was almost impossible to believe that this place was the scariest planet in the world. But when they went further, Cheng Jin found a huge building.
It is indeed called “huge” because it’s even bigger than the trade building on the trade planet, and it looks like it is made of metal, and the whole body is black. When the line of sight is not so clear, it looks like a building that can lead to the sky. The building is like a very, very large metal tomb. At first glance, you can’t see the head, and the high place is more like being surrounded by wind and snow.
“This is…” Cheng Jin was stunned, his eyes widened.
Cheng Xu said, “This is the prison of the Hell Star.” His eyes were also surprised, and there was also a little fear. “The more criminals who have done crimes, the higher the detention is. There are more than 300 floors here. This is the case on this planet. It’s cold, the heights of more than 300 floors must be extremely cold.”
Cheng Jin shuddered at hearing, shrinking his neck, and whispered: “Dad, brother, let’s find a place to rest.”
They quickly found an inn, and found a bank that could be exchanged for Planet Twenty-Nine next to the inn, and they also inquired about the route to Planet Twenty-Nine. The two planets are not far apart, and there is a direct train directly there, but the train only leaves in three days, and they have to wait until the third day to leave.
The innkeeper is a middle-aged man who looks fierce, but he has a good personality. He also pointed them where to buy warm clothes, and even accompanied Cheng Xu on a trip to avoid him being “slaughtered.”
In order to save money, they only booked one room. After spending half an hour in the room, Cheng Jin finally got warm. He took a sip of hot water and through the window, he could see the magnificent building not far away. He thought that there was usually no heating in it, and the higher part was so cold to the bones that he felt fortunate. “Fortunately, our house was only fined, hadn’t really been sent here, otherwise…” Otherwise, even if the elder brother can go on, his father will definitely not be able to go on.
Cheng Zheng was also a little scared, and said, “Yes. In fact, we were sentenced to imprisonment under the criminal law, but after the case was retrialed, we only had to pay a high fine.”
“That’s really lucky…” Cheng Jin rubbed his hands.
They stayed in the hotel for two days before leaving. Trains are different type. Although they look similar, compared to soft, comfortable and fast trains, the speed of the train is like a snail crawling, It’s totally incomparable. They need to take the train for two days and one night. Because there is no place to sleep, everyone has only one seat that is not too soft. So after stopping, Cheng Jin feels that his whole body is going to be scattered.
But they finally reached the twenty-ninth planet-the geothermal planet.
When they finally arrived, he and his father inquired about the environment of this planet. He knew that there were many natural hot springs here, so it was called Geothermal Planet. However, because of the inconvenience of transportation and the close relationship with Hell Planet, the tourism industry has not developed at all, so the economy here ranks in the bottom of the galaxy. Not only the economy, but the population here is also quite small. Obviously it has an area of ​​more than 500,000 square kilometers, but the population is only a mere three million.
“Your mother lived here when she was very young. Later, her family moved to another planet. After I married her, I came back here once.” Cheng Zheng sighed while standing on this land. I looked around, and said, “It was clear that it happened forty-five years ago, but nothing has changed here.”
Cheng Jin sniffed and said, “It must be too cold, so the economy didn’t develop.”
It is really cold here, although it is not as cold as the Hell Planet, and there is no such big cold wind, but it is still terribly cold, and the snow is very thick. Cheng Xu said: “Let’s go find a place to live first.”
After asking others, they took the tool here-a snowmobile, a mechanically pulled vehicle that can travel through the snow. The speed is slow, but because there are simple carriages, it is warmer than the outside, so they walked closer. It took four hours before arriving in the central city, where they found the household registration application office.
Human beings all over the world can move around, provided that he can be received where he wants to go. The imperial planet is the most restrictive place, and many standards must be met to live in, while it is very simple for the poor and small population to live in.
Like a geothermal planet, when they expressed their wish to settle here, the old man in the management office gave them a form, saying: “Just fill in the form.”
When Cheng Xu saw the piece of paper, he was slightly surprised, “Handwriting?”
“You must be people from the top planets, right? Those places are used to using electronic networks. We are poor here, but we don’t have so many things.” The old man pointed behind him, “Look, our files are still okay. You’re old so you must know how to write by hand, and then I will use the computer to check your identity information. As long as it matches and has no criminal record, you can become a resident here.”
Cheng Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Okay, thank you.” He took the pen and started filling out the form. In fact, what he worries most is the check-in process. The whole world is connected to the Internet. Strictly speaking, as long as the information is registered on other planets. If Yan Qi really wants to find him, he can also find it. The reason why he chose Planet 6 before was because he knew that the management there was not rigorous, so he wanted to fool it with fake credentials. But now the planet they want to settle now got switched, even if he don’t need to fake it, he can hide it from the other party. After all, if you just inquire, it will not leave a record.
Fill out the information form. His good handwriting obviously made the old man a little surprised and a little happy. He even became more enthusiastic about his attitude, “It’s really rare for young people to write so well. You must have practiced brush writing?”
“I have practiced.” Cheng Xu smiled modestly, “but I’m not young anymore.”
“I’m forty years old. In front of me, isa 100-year-old man, I must be considered a young man.” The old man squinted his eyes and scanned the contents of the form. “So you are the father and son who want to settle here? Why are you here? Is the business going bankrupt? It doesn’t matter, the welfare here is actually good, you can apply for a good house, and equipped with a hot spring pool.”
When Cheng Jin heard the hot spring pool, his eyes lit up, “Is it so good? There are even hot spring pools?”
“We are named after the hot spring here, but there are too few customers, so there are a lot of free pools, and every household has them. In addition, for the first three months of your stay here, each person can receive a potato flavor or A sweet potato flavored nutrient soup, but after three months, the benefits will be gone.” The old man said, turning on a somewhat old-looking computer next to him, waiting for a full three minutes to turn it on, and then turning on one. The software starts to query their identity information.
After confirming that the three people had no criminal history, the old man stamped their application form with a red seal, then went to the inner room and took out a bunch of keys and handed them to them, “Your new residence is at No. 2 Mangrove Street, at the door. Wait a while, you can wait for a sleigh ride directly there. If you need anything, you can contact me or the neighborhood committee there. If you are not satisfied with the allocated house, you can also apply for reallocation, but you may need to wait.”
Cheng Xu was a little surprised, “This way… is it all right?”
“Yes, after all, our population is very small and the aging is very serious, so in fact we welcome young people to stay.” The old man put the key in his palm, showing a gentle smile.
