Chapter 789 Unexpected Disaster

No wonder Claire is so excited. As the "habitable twin stars" of the Canopy Galaxy, the Paradise Star is much better than the Home Star.

The two planets were developed almost at the same time. The home planet focuses on planting industry, and in the early stages of development, it was better than the paradise planet.

For a long time, Paradise Star was suppressed. It had nothing to do with policy, but mainly because of the different development directions.

Later, Paradise gradually caught up, and Gemini kept pace with each other for a long time before finally overtaking them.

In the final analysis, the industrial structure of homeland is relatively simple, while the industrial development of paradise is relatively balanced.

Now the gap between the two is getting wider and wider, and the home star is becoming increasingly hollow, but the paradise star is experiencing a net inflow of population.

Moreover, the park's business, entertainment and tourism industries are all very developed. Compared with it, Homeworld is completely rural.

But precisely because of its development, Paradise Planet has strict inspections on outsiders and has a mature inspection mechanism.

Mrs. Jia had sufficient understanding of this, so she chose to settle in the relatively deserted Home Star.

However, in her plan, the next step is to set foot in the paradise, which coincides with Qu Jianlei's needs.

After the land expropriation incident subsided for more than a month, they set off for Paradise Planet.

The fourth master was left at home to take care of him. He spent some time guarding the Warhammer Star Territory and had no interest in the Paradise Star.

In addition, Youyou stayed with Xiao Qin while working hard to improve.

In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Qu Jianlei and others did not use the ominous ship, but chose the passenger starship.

After all, the ominous ship is registered in the Hope Star Territory. Home Star can barely accept it, but Paradise Star is hard to say.

Because they are both in the Canopy Galaxy, Paradise Planet is quite polite to travelers from home, but related inspections are unavoidable.

However, this kindness is not without reason.

After the seven people walked out of the star port, someone approached them and said, "Want to move to the paradise? We have the most professional services!"

Everyone ignored it. After walking far away, Hua Xiezi murmured, "Didn't you say it's difficult to move to Paradise?"

Rarely, Mrs. Jia actually replied to her, "It is difficult to find a livable paradise on other planets, but it is not difficult to make a home."

Claire was a little confused, "We're in the same galaxy, isn't this poaching?"

"Performance depends on comparison," Xiangxue said lightly, "Is there any more obvious contrast than the one at your doorstep?"

Now that it has passed the inspection, everyone's activities are much easier.

Paradise Star is worthy of the word "Paradise". Although inspections are strict, the frequency is not high.

This is a planet with very developed entertainment, tourism and commerce. Isn’t that just trying to drive people away if their identities are checked at every turn?

In fact, there are so many surveillance systems on Paradise Planet that they can be said to be almost everywhere, and the cost of committing crimes is very high.

The correct thing is that it seems to have little deterrent effect, but in fact deterrence is everywhere.

The seven of us visited for a whole day, and only when we were staying at the hotel did we once again experience the ubiquitous inspections.

You know, in order to reduce trouble, they choose top hotels.

Fortunately, the inspection seemed to be more cautious, but the time was very short, and it was basically just a formality.

After successfully checking in, a small card was actually inserted through the crack of the door - a bit excessive for such a high-end hotel.

However, it was not just door-to-door injections or anything like that, it was actually a business of introducing immigrants.

Those who can afford to stay in such a high-end hotel must be high-net-worth people, so this positioning... is quite accurate.

On the second day, we played again. On the third day, Qu Jianlei separated from everyone and went to get various materials that he had contacted.

Paradise Star is really lively, not to mention there are many people, there are also many kinds of entertainment, and of course, the consumption is not cheap.

The other six people were having fun, but Qu Jianlei was having a hard time.

The materials he wants to buy are not too much. If he works harder, he can complete the purchase within three days.

But the ubiquitous surveillance on the planet has seriously reduced his efficiency.

He can change his appearance and height, but his trajectory cannot be changed.

And the monitoring here goes far beyond cameras, there are also sound collectors, abnormal energy sensors, etc.

Limited by these conditions, he could only slow down his pace and do more useless work to cover up his whereabouts.

As for asking his companions to help... he would like to, but it is unrealistic.

First of all, the materials need to be identified and professional communication with the seller is required.

The second is the problem of changing appearance and breath. Even the old lady who is best at this is still behind him.

It took Qu Jianlei six days to finish purchasing all the materials.

On the sixth day, it was getting dark, and he drove to meet his companions.

But the worst thing is that halfway through the drive, there was a traffic jam on the road!

This is the first time Qu Jianlei has encountered a traffic jam in an imperial city since he traveled through time.

The two star regions, Hope and Skyhook, are vast, sparsely populated, and have well-constructed infrastructure, making traffic jams almost impossible.

As for Paradise Star...the infrastructure is also in place, but in some mega cities, traffic jams are unavoidable during peak hours.

Qu Jianlei drives a rented car. If he encounters a traffic jam, he can set up automatic driving and then get out of the car and walk away.

However, this car is rented with a deposit. If you operate it that way, the deposit will be cheaper, and it will also appear abnormal.

In fact, he can also use his ID to rent a car - a fake ID that costs a lot of money to make and can travel among the stars, so renting a car is no problem.

But he will not consider the latter option. Once he develops this habit, he will be irresponsible to himself.

So he could only sit in the car and wait, feeling a little bit resentful in his heart: Tangtang Jindan was helpless against the traffic jam, so...

Although it was night, the weather was still a bit hot. Many cars had their windows down, and Qu Jianlei followed suit.

Anyway, in a place like this where surveillance is everywhere, just blend in with ordinary people.

The traffic jam is not that severe. Vehicles can still move slowly, but at an excruciatingly slow pace.

In particular, there are some people riding bicycles and electric scooters, weaving in and out of the traffic, making the congestion even worse.

At this moment, Qu Jianlei was a little envious of these people, "It's too much. They claim to have good public order, but they don't know how to take care of these guys!"

However, suddenly, he realized something was strange.

An electric scooter came to the side and behind the car, and a guy wearing a helmet stood on the skateboard.

As soon as this person reached out, he opened the rear door and reached out to grab the backpack on the back seat. His movements were extremely agile.

There were only a few daily necessities in that backpack, which Qu Jianlei used to show off.

"I just..." He was really scolding his mother in his heart. Such a thing could happen. How dare he call himself Paradise Star?

In fact, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, which is understandable, and he also understands this in his heart.

But what should he do? It is definitely impossible not to respond. This will become the laughing stock of his life.

But once he takes action, he will inevitably be investigated by the city guards - it doesn't matter if he has reasons, he has to record a confession anyway, right?

He sighed softly and released an extremely subtle amount of spiritual power.

Face-to-face output...it was so fast, and then he quickly opened the car door and got out of the car.

The man wearing the helmet had already grabbed the backpack in his hand, but his body suddenly stiffened.

The next moment, a pair of big hands thrust into his armpits, and then a voice rang out, "What are you doing standing still? Get in the car!"

When Qu Jianlei spoke, he was shocked to find that this guy was not unconscious - just a little dizzy.

So one of his hands swept across the other person's neck, so fast that most people couldn't even see it.

The man wearing the helmet went limp and completely lost consciousness.

Qu Jianlei helped the person get into the car, picked up the electric skateboard on the ground, and stuffed it into the car.

When closing the rear door, he patted the window, pointed at the car twice, and muttered a few words.

Then, he opened the front door angrily and got in.

This scene was actually seen by many people, and some people wondered whether the person wearing the helmet was robbing him.

This kind of thing is indeed very rare in Paradise Planet, but it cannot be said that it is absolutely non-existent.

It wasn't until they saw Qu Jianlei's reaction that everyone came to their senses - oh, it turns out these two knew each other!

Obviously, it is impossible for someone who is not an acquaintance to have such a reaction.

Of course, some people still have doubts in their hearts - no matter how they look at it, they look like they are trying to grab the bag.

However, no one wants to be troublesome. The security of the paradise is indeed very good, but if you report it to the city guard, the witnesses will also be delayed.

Let's just pretend that these two knew each other. If they were really snatching the bag, they deserved to meet a ruthless person. The ending is still pleasant.

After such an encounter, Qu Jianlei couldn't join up with his teammates for the time being. He should deal with this bag thief first.

It is impossible to kill him directly unless he drives to the wilderness, but a taxi will still reveal his whereabouts.

He sighed and looked calmly at the traffic ahead.

After about ten minutes, the traffic speed gradually increased.

Qu Jianlei drove to a commercial building and parked the car directly in the underground parking lot.

Choosing a place with few people to park, he folded the electric scooter and put it into his backpack, then helped the helmeted man out of the car.

The strength in his hand was strong enough that unless someone was watching, it would not be easy to notice that the man in the helmet had lost consciousness at all.

The underground parking lot was large enough and there was a bathroom. He dragged people directly into the bathroom.

No matter how good the security of Paradise Star is, it is impossible to install monitoring equipment in the bathroom.

After entering the bathroom, he locked the door, raised his hand and took off the other person's helmet, "Hey, it's actually a woman?"

This was the face of a middle-aged woman, but soon, Qu Jianlei discovered a new situation, "You're even wearing makeup?"

Through perception, he could determine that the other party was not very old.

However, he doesn't care about this. It's not like he hasn't killed anyone even younger.

But before killing, he planned to interrogate him first.

There is no question of not wanting to kill indiscriminately. Even if we follow the rules of the empire, if we dare to offend the Supreme Being in this way, our killing will be in vain.

He mainly wanted to confirm whether the appearance of this person was a test by some forces against him.

This is not a delusion of being persecuted, but he has purchased a lot of rare materials recently, so he needs to be more vigilant.
