The mood was probably the biggest change. The sense of relaxation made Cassia look forward to the next journey. There was no mission, no purpose, just a simple return to the place where she should have been. The time was also unusually generous, and the schedule was not long.
It will be very compact and you will no longer have to worry about running out of time.
You can think about a lot of information accumulated in your head along the way, or you can not think about it at all. Staying in the room on the airship is also a very good option.
Cassia smiled at this moment, taking a deep breath followed by a soothing exhale. I don’t know what it will be like in the future, but at least for the short time now, it is what she hopes it will be, living without worries, seemingly blending into the surrounding air
Among them, they are actually completely independent individuals, but they are not known by others.
When the whistle sounded, Cassia was already sitting on the chair in the airship room, and the books he took from Zero were neatly placed on the table. When the airship resumed its smooth sailing, he took
I picked up the kettle and spent a few minutes filling a full pot of boiling water in the middle-floor restaurant. After I came back, I looked at the scene outside the round window for a minute or two.
Below the airship, there are still large layers of dark gray rain clouds, connected one to another. Between the few gaps, you can only see the ground that has been cut - with a touch of golden color - and the rest is
They are all the same dark gray. The heavy rain more than a month ago was just the beginning after all. The weather will reverse, and then rainy days will become normal, and sunny days or when there is no rain, it will be intermittent.
When the time on the bronze clock in the room pointed to three o'clock, Cassia withdrew his gaze, turned back to the table, poured a glass of boiling water and drank it directly, took a book, and said, "It seems that No. 0 is interested in history."
"Interested in related books", I opened it and started reading.
There are very few passengers on the airship, and there are more products and supplies transported to various places. In a week, even if you choose the right time, whether it is to open the water or fill your stomach, in the canteen
There are not many people in the restaurant, and it is normal for nearly four-fifths of the dining seats to be empty.
The expressions of the other passengers did not look relaxed and leisurely, and were wrapped in a layer of trouble. But during the last stop before going to the imperial border to transfer to the airport, Cassia suddenly discovered that during this stop, the flying
Almost all the original passengers on the boat left, except for the crew members, there were only thirteen people left.
There are only six people boarding the airship here, and all they need to do is deal with the large amount of cargo on this medium-sized airship. When I went to the canteen, I was the only one in the empty restaurant, and the sound of the air circulation system
It can even reverberate around you.
Most of the other ten or so people are surgeons. Even those who are not have hired surgeons as their own protection. However, the surgical stages are generally relatively low, and there is only one in the third stage, Cassia.
I can only give this evaluation.
During this time, the empire and the other two large countries have strengthened border management. Cassia knows the reason why a large number of passengers leave before the last stop. The connecting airport will verify the identity and documents for passing the border. For passengers who do not have it,
Going there is just a matter of spending more money and going back again.
Optically encrypted identity cards and documents are much more difficult to forge than purchasing a new rationalized identity card for one of the three major national governments, and they also need to bear the risk of death if discovered.
But in the future, groups of people will still rush to the small countries bordering the empire's borders, stop at the transfer airport, and use other ways to get to the seemingly safer empire. The borders stretch.
With such a long distance, there may be gaps in control and guarding. It would not be difficult to find such a place and successfully smuggle into the empire under the protection of firearms - this is probably what most people think.
.
This has always been a good business. Compared with the forest belt on the border of the Flame Alliance where there are a large number of second-class creatures, the Empire and the Far Sea Commonwealth are naturally much safer. In the dark world, there are a large number of first- and second-stage surgeons.
, coupled with people who have been trained in the use of firearms for a short period of time, they can become a leading team that looks very reliable.
"Whether everything goes smoothly and whether you can enter the empire depends on the managers of each border area. Sometimes, the so-called vacancies and routes are actually left on purpose. There is also a checkpoint there, but it does not require standard documents and identity cards.
, just need enough money.”
Two days later, the airship docked at the transfer airport. When it arrived in the morning and officially departed at 4 p.m., the various small and medium-sized commercial airships that came here one after another could only bring less than 150 passengers.
In the next few months, the number of people on the airship returning to the empire will be even smaller every time. When the time comes, it is not impossible to stop it completely.
While waiting, Cassia used her senses to conduct an inspection. Only about twenty people were ordinary people, and the rest were all surgeons. However, even if the number of people was small, the goods that needed to be transported back to the empire were very small, but
A large commercial airship was still arranged.
As the clear whistle sounded, the dark gray clouds above the transfer airport also made ripples affected by the sound waves. Then the clouds were penetrated by the airship, and as they closed in quickly, the buzzing sound of the lift device also left far away.
.
The next journey was exactly the same as a few days ago. The difference was that there were no commercial facilities around the transfer airport, and naturally there were no bookstores. Cassia asked many airport staff, collected some self-read books from individuals, and
With permission, I took a lot of expired magazines and newspapers, etc., plus some reading materials on the commercial airship. Although it is not enough to last until the airship reaches its destination, it should be no problem for a few days.
.
After reading it several times, it seems to be a reasonable solution.
The journey back to the interior of the empire was the longest part of the journey, and there were two stops along the way. However, since they were both close to the border of the empire, there were not many new passengers. The final destination was an industrial city within the empire, an area
Among them, the transportation system center of high-speed trains.
When we arrived here, fourteen days had passed since we stopped at the connecting airport.
After getting off the airship, I dragged my luggage out of the airport to the large square in front. There were noisy sounds around me again. The crowd was pushing and shouting. The wet road in front was always covered with a layer of white steam. I was impatient.
The horns of the limousine cars also rose and fell, and a large number of limousine cars moved slowly as if they were completely crowded on the road. The sight in front of her made Cassia let out a long sigh, and the air rich in water vapor still carried the smell of oil vapor accumulated over the years.
