After bidding farewell to Mr. Fernandi, Heshia continued to be busy working at "Liu Li Dream". Although the high school may receive some subsidies, in general, it is more practical to make money on her own.
As my mother said, when you can make money yourself, you will feel a great freedom because you no longer have to rely on others.
In this way, the bar in the "Liu Li Dream" is still being renovated, and Heshia finally has another vacation.
Are you going out or spending time at home?
Heshia is sitting in front of the bed. The window on one side of the bedroom emits bright simulated sunlight, which reflects her lower body. Her slightly slender legs are exposed to the sunlight, white and bright, and her toes show a semi-transparent color.
.
I have been very busy lately, with work matters, studying music, and occasionally paying attention to school matters.
Lying on the soft quilt again, Heshia looked up at the ceiling above her head, her nerves relaxed slightly, her eyebrows slowly stretched, and then she closed her eyes again.
Just sleep at home today.
In this way, in the window that emitted sunlight, the fan whirred, bringing up some circulating air. In the morning shortly after getting up, Tilan continued to fall asleep. Her legs first arched, and then slowly lay flat on her side, supple.
Her hair spread between the quilts.
Time passed silently, no one disturbed her, and she did not have to go to work. Forgetting those complicated formulas and study materials, this girl enjoyed a quiet holiday.
Today is June 5th, Sunday.
————
In the afternoon, Hesia finally got up from bed, not because she didn't want to sleep, but because she was hungry.
ah--
After a long yawn, Hesia sat in front of the bed, shook her head, shook her hair, and stood up.
In two simple steps, she came to the mirror and leaned over to look at herself in the mirror. She had flaxen gray hair and black eyes. Her side bangs covered her ears a little. She needed to use hairpins to close or pull them up to fully expose her small ears.
Come.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, the girl simply straightened her hair with a comb, gathered the long hair on one side of her ears, then picked up the rubber band and tied it up on her chest, and then did the same on the other side.
After briefly combing her clothes, she stood up, opened the closet on the side, rummaged through a dress suitable for going out in summer, then put on a pair of strappy sandals and got ready to go out.
It was a sunny day today. After eating something, she was going to take a look at the ground.
After packing her things, Heshia took a small bag, put her belongings away, and then went out.
Since entering the third year of junior high school, due to the pressure of studies and the financial constraints of life, she has almost no energy to worry about other things. In addition to studying every day, she just goes home to buy vegetables and make some food, and then continues to review in the evening, and so on.
Because her father has also passed away, she is the only one in the family, and she has no one to rely on. If she fails to get into Irene Academy, it will be extremely difficult to repeat her studies. Not only will she not be able to support herself financially, but her mentality will also be worse.
Easy to collapse.
After a whole year of this, she finally took a breather after graduating a month ago, but she still couldn't relax completely because she hadn't received the admission notice yet, and even if she was admitted, she still had to worry about her future job.
Now, these things finally no longer bother her, and she can finally relax and do something she couldn't do before.
For example, go for a walk on the patio.
Although there is a simulated sky underground, it still lacks the atmosphere and boundlessness of a natural sky.
Entering the vertical elevator leading to the top of the patio, the girl watched the numbers on the screen keep changing upwards until the last floor number showed '0', and the red steel elevator door slowly opened.
Walking out of the passage in the patio, the fierce sunlight that came in front of her made Heshia unable to open her eyes. She covered her forehead with her arms and stepped on the dry and reverberating steel steps in the gentle wind.
Holding on to the guardrail on one side, she walked out of the stairs and looked outside.
There is a white world in front of you. The ground is gray and hard. There are sand and dust in the wind. It will feel gray and fluffy when it blows on your body.
No wonder everyone rarely comes out, the girl thought, but she still liked this feeling.
Outside the courtyard of Payin City, apart from a desert with no vegetation, there is only a large parking lot. Under the scorching sun, the parking lot also looks very lonely, with not many vehicles entering and exiting.
Some large trucks suitable for driving on the ground will drag the goods to the back and unload them here. Then the drivers will put the trucks here and go to Payin City under the patio to rest and relax for a day or two before continuing their journey.
Continuing to walk outside, leaving the metal floor near the patio, Heshia stepped on her sandals and came to the dry ground. Her white summer skirt was flying in the hot wind. She lifted up the messed up hair beside her ears, and then
He squatted down again and looked at the ground in front of him carefully.
The surface that was originally muddy from rain has cracked into irregular gaps after being exposed to the sun. If you gently open it with your fingers, you can crush the edges and form gray powder particles.
Slowly twist these particles in your hands, and they will turn into fine powder and disperse in the wind.
A long time ago, this land was full of green, but due to the corrosion of poisonous rain, vegetation no longer grows now.
The vicissitudes of life, that’s probably what it means.
Heshia stood up slowly. At this time, her forehead was already slightly sweating due to the sun, so she was ready to return.
While she was walking on the hot ground, a truck came from a distance and slowly slowed down towards the parking lot.
"Hi, little girl~" A person leaned out of the big truck and looked at the girl below.
"Are you walking alone?" The driver looked to be in his 40s, with thick arms and stubble.
"Yes, let's go out for a walk." Hesia needed to speak very loudly so that the other party could hear her.
"Hahaha, let's take a walk, okay." He laughed for a while and thought this little girl was very interesting.
"This is for you." He threw down a light yellow straw hat.
After taking over the straw hat with rough edges and a little prickly edge, Heshia didn't have time to say anything. The big truck continued forward and slowly drove into the parking lot.
The automatic loading and unloading machine's boom moves, pulling up the container behind the truck, and then moves it to the freight elevator track aside. Soon, the contents of the container will be sent underground, and the driver's task is completed.
Hesia fumbled with the straw hat, put it on her head, and walked towards the parking lot. Soon she saw the uncle coming out with two bottles of ice-cold mineral water in his hand.
"Drink a bottle?"
The other party threw it over, and Heshia caught it in a hurry. It wasn't because she reacted slowly, but because she had never encountered such a thing before.
Very ordinary mineral water is probably the most basic T7 level emergency drink. It has no other uses except water replenishment, but it is also extremely cheap and can even be produced automatically with a small machine you purchased yourself.
Continuing to get closer, Heshia could see clearly that the uncle had a ruddy face, a lot of hair on his body, and was wearing work clothes with some stains and oil, as well as the lingering smell of sweat.
"Why don't you go sit in the parking lot lounge? It's not so sunny there and it's safer."
"Okay." Hesia has actually never been to this parking lot, and she was a little curious today.
"Are you a child born in Payin City?" The uncle asked casually while walking on the road.
"Yes, here is uncle."
"Ha, I, I live in Feiji City, North Sixth District, and I have a daughter about the same age as you. She is currently in the second grade of junior high school."
"Going so far?" Hexia knew that the North Sixth District was at least 200 kilometers away from here.
"There's no way to make a living," he said nonchalantly.
"What about you, aren't your family worried if you run outside alone? This is what I've seen. If a bad guy suddenly kidnaps you, there won't even be any surveillance around." Although the security level in the Federation is not low now, it cannot be ruled out.
Extreme situations occur in some remote corners.
Hesia blinked, "I'm just walking around the edge of the patio, I won't go too far."
"That's good. The area around Payin City is relatively peaceful. If it's on a road in the wilderness, with no one in front or behind for dozens of kilometers, people would be like wild beasts." He said with emotion.
"Anything can happen on the freight road. It's best if nothing happens."
“My nerves are always tense when I’m on the road, so I just have to go somewhere to rest and relax.”
Arriving at the parking lot with only a few people there, the two walked up the stairs to the lounge. It was obviously much cooler here.
The entire lounge is composed of a steel structure. There is only a rain-proof and corrosion-proof partition on the top. The roof is in the shape of a ^. Below is a ventilated and spacious lounge, where fixed steel seats and beds are placed, and further down.
It is the elevated part of the bracket, and the wind blows through it, making a whining sound.
It is not that there are no such extremely comfortable buildings and environments in the Federation, but in many cases, in order to save costs and expenses, low-level and remote areas generally just use them.
In the past, people always had a morbid fascination with high technology, thinking that everything would become popular after the development of technology, but this statement is also inaccurate. The continuous upgrading of technology will indeed reduce costs, but as long as the returns in one place are not enough
If it is large, or the owner is not that wealthy, it will still be limited by the cost and will not exceed its set upper limit.
Leaning on the corridor outside the lounge, the wind blew by, taking away the sweat on the body and giving it a cool feeling. Looking at the baked and hot ground in the distance, the two continued to chat.
"I envy you children. You can spend every day carefree. Although you may encounter some troubles, looking back now, these are probably happy troubles." The uncle driver put his arm on the steel.
Stand on the guardrail and enjoy the breeze quietly.
"What has uncle experienced before?" Hesia did not refute, but continued to ask curiously.
"Me, I will fight with others for the girl I like." He grinned.
"It's a pity that although I won the fight, the girl I like is still not with me."
"Did she like the guy you were fighting with?"
"No, it's another boy she met newly. Well, that boy is indeed a bit handsome, I have to admit it."
"I was so sad at the time. I hugged my brothers and cried loudly. I also vowed to spend ten years waiting for each other to change his mind."
"As a result, now I can't even remember her appearance. I only vaguely remember that she likes to wear white skirts. Maybe it's that summer silhouette that draws away my soul." The uncle looked into the distance and picked up the mineral water again.
Take a big gulp.
"That's how people are. Things that mattered a lot at the time are slowly forgotten later."
"Huh, let's stop chatting with you little girl. I have to find a place to sleep now." He flattened the water bottle and threw it into the trash can nearby, then turned and entered the lounge at the back.
"Just now I saw you walking alone, and I thought you had something on your mind, but it turned out that nothing happened after we chatted for a while. It's true." He shook his head.
"Go back quickly, it's sunny outside, I'm sleepy." He waved his hands behind Hesia's back, and then opened a separate cubicle with a loose step, preparing to have a good sleep.
"Well, thank you for your kindness, uncle." Although Heshia wanted to laugh a little, she still felt a little warm.
She originally wanted to return the hat to the other party, but the other party also went in to sleep, so she had no choice but to give up.
Turning around and leaving the parking lot, she continued to walk around the patio, and then walked towards the steel stairs with some satisfaction.
Although I didn't see any special scenery when I came out today, my mood seemed to be much better.
Just like a frog, it has grown up in a well and thinks that the things in the well are everything to it. There are people it likes and things it hates and is sad about. It is happy for it and sheds tears for it. But as time goes by,
When one day it walks out and goes to a distant place, it will slowly realize that the life inside the well is just a small part of a small part of its life, and that life is still very long, and there are still many unknown scenery outside.
And the endless distance is waiting.
