01. Public expense Mars tour

Milky Way - Mars·Southern Highlands

The Hourglass Sea is located here.

In the boundless yellow-red Gobi desert, the light blue protective film is like a drop of water, cool and round.

In the water drop is a small and exquisite city microcosm, with neon lights occupying 70%, and the other 30% is a light blue artificial ocean.

Hourglass Sea City is one of the most famous holiday attractions on Mars. Tens of millions of tourists come to this city's beaches every year.

After hundreds of years of persistent publicity by the Federation and capitalists, the beaches of Mars have become a place familiar to every citizen, just like the Federation's Department of Finance.

The Hourglass Sea covers an area of ​​15,000 square kilometers. There are 13 million citizens living here and an average of 10 million tourists. In addition, the ocean accounts for 30%, making the per capita area here year-round at the bottom of the federation.

Dense high-rise hotels are rising from the ground, with mixed styles. There are no buildings below a hundred floors here. There are passages between the buildings, and screens on the walls play various advertisements. Numerous commercial streets are located in the narrow gaps.

and bars and dance halls, with neon lights flashing and suspended cars and suspended rail trains traveling between the buildings.

The dark alleys on the ground are always filled with graffiti, a group of smoky Beatles, and the vomit left by some drunkard.

The Hourglass Sea is a city that never sleeps.

People who like it will think that it has the bluest water, white sandy beaches, and the most enthusiastic people. People who hate it will see that it is full of crime, chaos, crowding, and gambling and drug abuse.

Only the ten-kilometer-long commercial street on the coast was an accident.

Although there are more tourists on the beach and commercial street, there are only two to three-story buildings and the coast dozens of meters away across the commercial street, which together only make people feel open and welcoming.

Outside the atmosphere of Mars, in low Earth orbit. A spacecraft painted with the logo of the Federal Ministry of Security is approaching the southern highlands.

In the rest cabin, Mu Su looked gloomy and took off Game Mask No. 2.

Those three bastards actually rejected their friend request again!

Four days have passed since the last instance ended. During these four days, Mu Su would add them as friends every once in a while. Unfortunately, all of them were rejected. Only Guiwu Chengfeng passed through at first, and then he deleted Mu Su after thinking of something.

.

Mu Su brought Game Mask No. 1 for them!

With this thought in his mind, Mu Su, angrily, put on his mask again and continued to add friends.

The next two hours were spent in Mu Su’s repeated attempts to add friends.

Outside the porthole, the spacecraft began to enter the atmosphere. After a few minutes, it penetrated the atmosphere smoothly, and the fiery red desolate Gobi desert appeared in the southern highlands.

A few water droplets were distributed in this fiery red wall, adding a touch of desolation in the hot weather. The spacecraft descended and fell into the hourglass sea area.

The Hourglass Seaport is located on the edge of the water drop, furthest from the coast.

The spacecraft descended and berthed at a government port, and the accompanying agents went to the rest cabin to notify Mu Su that they had arrived.

The director of the Mars Division of the Federal Ministry of Security was also on board the spacecraft. He and his assistant rushed over and sent Mu Su off the spacecraft, holding a mask in his arms and his eyes wide open.

Watching Mu Su walk into the safe passage, the two quickly returned to the control room.

As the assistant operated on the console, the scene in the suspended car appeared on the screen. A few minutes later, the door opened and Mu Su got into the car.

The hover car slowly rose, and the neon lights outside the window passed by, taking Musu to the coastal commercial street.

"I still can't understand, is this too risky...?" In the control room, the assistant looked up at the minister's profile.

The minister, who was about to lose all his hair on his forehead and was unwilling to admit it and combed his hair forward, replied: "Your Excellency, the President hopes that he can be more active and at least show his face in front of these alien creatures more often."

"Why? Shouldn't we protect him?" Although he had checked Mu Su's relevant information in the internal system, the assistant still didn't understand the meaning.

"Maybe it's for other civilizations. Recently, the movement of extraterrestrial civilizations has become more and more loud. After so many generations, the memory of the past has almost disappeared. The President is also worried about these things. His hair is still the same as it was three years ago.

Black."

Probably because he didn't have much hair, the branch director was particularly obsessed with hair. Then his expression froze, he coughed slightly and said, "Uh, did I accidentally say too much?"

The assistant reluctantly took out his blue-edged ID and showed it to him: "I have enough authority to know this, Mr. Minister. So when we ask Mu Su to come back, is it for them to see?"

"It's more of a deterrent."

"deterrence?"

The branch director let out a soft breath: "Don't underestimate this tombkeeper. With him around, no civilization can dictate to humans."

Shock appeared on the assistant's face, and he looked up at the scene in the floating car.

At this time, Mu Su picked up his nose with his index finger, picked it up for a while, then picked up the boogers, looked around, hummed and pretended not to care and smeared the boogers on the camera.



Ten minutes later, the hover car landed at the edge of the beach parking area.

The staff member turned back and said: "We are here, have you seen the white trash can?"

Mu Su was shocked: "That's the Princess of Mars!? The photo is clearly of an armored warrior, why has it shrunk again! Are you the security department or cosmetics?"

The staff member hesitated to speak and said with difficulty: "No...I want you to wait there. Our detectives will tell you the details later."

"Hey, I didn't tell you earlier." Mu Su pouted and got out of the car.

When you step on the ground, the sea breeze blows in your face, blowing your black hair.

Mu Su squinted and looked at the coast, the white sand and blue ocean, and the sound of laughter and laughter coming from the beach.

Mu Su walked to the trash can, lay down on the guardrail on the coast, took a deep breath, his eyes gradually wandered, looking around at the beautiful girls in swimsuits.

Happy times are always short-lived. A figure walked up to Mu Su and stood on the guardrail like Mu Su.

"Hello, Mr. Musu, I am an agent of the Federal Ministry of Security." Accompanied by the pleasant female voice was the smell of perfume drifting in the sea breeze.

Mu Su stopped looking around and turned sideways with a calm expression.

She was a tall and curvy blonde girl with a swimsuit with an olive tree pattern. The sunglasses were placed on her forehead, and the swimsuit barely covered her chest.

Mu Su smoothed back his black hair and showed a sunny smile: "Hello, can I buy you a drink?"

*Hourglass Sea City: Established in the Hourglass Sea in the southern highlands of Mars in 2181, it was originally planned to be a resort attraction and transform low-altitude valleys into oceans.

*The Federation initially planned to transform Mars into a planet suitable for human habitation, but it was temporarily shelved after the solar ring plan was proposed and realized.

*After that, in 2203 and 2215, the federal government proposed two plans respectively, but they were opposed by federal citizens and shelved again.

*Some media later published details. The fundamental reason for the shelving was the opposition of Mars businessmen and municipalities. They believed that this would reduce the income and taxes of tourist attractions.
