Chapter 27

  The Eve

  Although somewhat worried about that young, gentle and wealthy… bad to the bone young customer, but Becky didn’t know whether that boss Chow let off him. Because when they knew about the shooting in front of the club, the police had already arrived. After the shooting, the Stars Club just closed down for three hours, and then reopened for the business, had to say, the behind-the-scene boss was a very powerful role in the Coastal state.

  Becky frowned slightly, thought of that boy student watched her dancing two hours, and then tossed her about losing her head like a little girl, thought of the face of the other party slept sweetly in her arms in the end, she couldn’t fell some uneasy in the heart. But she was just a woman making a living at the bottom of the society, besides to inquire around, she also couldn’t have the intention to help the other party.

  She was not used to stay in her exclusive room, although that was the proprietary treatment for them these courtesans, but she still felt that it’s a bit too deserted over there. Just in the lounge where Sheilor played cards for the whole after afternoon, all the people felt that there was some strange tonight, something happened at the afternoon, it’s not surprise that the business would be slow a lot at the night, but it’s almost eight o’clock, why still no customer ordered Becky?

  “Kiki, please come to the general manager’s office.”

  A gentle voice came from the communicator, it sounded like the voice of the boss. The girls in the lounge all got nervous, took a look at Becky. Becky had a wry smile, also didn’t know what happened, she went straight to the third floor.

  On the third floor the boss’s exclusive office, Becky only came here once when she signed the contract. Tonight when she came in here, she saw a grey hair old man in a glance. The normally incomparably cold boss, was pouring the tea for that old man incomparably respectfully at this moment. Becky distracted for a moment, thought whether he wanted her to serve this old big shot?

  Steward Ken heard the sound of the footsteps and turned his head around, looked at Becky carefully from head to toe like looking up and down a work of art. Didn’t know when, the boss of the club left quietly, this room just only Becky and steward Ken two people were in. Becky had already been in the joy place for a long time, and also seen so many men. But when she faced the eyes of this old man, couldn’t help to be nervous, felt that in the calm eyes of the other party, she was kind of naked the whole body, just like a new born baby.

  After a long time, steward Ken nodded his head with satisfaction, asked mildly, “how long you have been in this business?”

  “A year and a half.” don’t know why, Becky answered the question nervously.

  “I have already read your medical report, you are a very careful girl.” steward Ken had a smile slightly, said, “don’t be nervous, I just come to see you. Do you remember that young man this morning?”

  “Yes.” Becky became more nervous.

  “He is the young master of our family.” steward Ken took out an envelop from the pocket of the dress, told her, “so from today on, you can’t be in this business any more. There is the address in the envelop, it’s your house from now on. There is also a check in there, it’s the thanks from our family.”

  Becky somewhat couldn’t understand what the meaning of this words, she looked at the old man blackly.

  Steward Ken paused for a moment, and then said with a smile, “I hope you don’t get me wrong, we don’t want to control your life, you still can be freely in love. If it’s so, will you please return this key… if you are willing to stay in that house to wait for young master to come, the please live in that house.”

  Steward Ken had his eyebrows frowned slightly, said, “but I hope that your choice could be careful and a bit longer. If you decide not to live in that house, please notice us in advance, I hope there will be no any unpleasant thing happened.”

  “Trust me.” steward Ken after finished this thing, looked at her and had a smile gently, said quietly, “you are the luckiest girl in the federation in these twenty years.”

  The words were very gentle, but let Becky felt the endless pressure and nervousness, so that she even didn’t know when steward Ken left, and she also didn’t listen clear the last sentence which the other party said. She was somewhat frustrated to walk back to the lounge, looked at those sisters chirping asking her, then remembered to take a look at that envelop.

  What she first saw was the address on the envelop, she could tell from a glance that this address was the most expensive the rich garden area in the Coastal state, she could help to suck-back a cold breath. Opened the envelop, she saw a check. She began somewhat nervously to count the zeros behind that number, counted for a long time, until she felt that she must had the blurred vision.

  Each zero was like a happy little hammer, struck on Becky that had been numb heart, she held the key and the check with the trembling hands, thought of that virgin boy who she hosted in the early morning on the spur of the moment, felt the black in the eyes, then passed out happily.

  All the problems were in the H1 area.

  Sheilor held his lower jaw with his hands, leaned against the edge of the operating cabin of the black mecha, looked at the high ceiling over his head, thought like this in his heart. In these many days, besides Charlie Tai and himself, at least in the night, no other students had come in. this phenomenon had already caught his attention long ago, because even the highest level laboratory of the Pear Garden university, also shouldn’t be only Charlie Tai and himself had the access right.

  It seemed that the H1 area was not an ordinary place, the named Tai boy of course was not an ordinary people.

  Sheilor touched the nape where the chip implanted subconsciously, the general federal citizens had already taken the chip in the body as one of the organ, which would accompany with them the whole life, no any rejection, no any curiousness, or sometimes even didn’t think of it, let alone to touch it… he was not the same, what implanted in his nape was a disguise chip, and in the metal bracelet on his left wrist, there were many more chips.

  Since in his body this disguise chip could let him enter H1 area this not ordinary place, at least it meant that the maker of the chip, uncle Fengyu, had some writing on this chip, then it could let the identification system to give the access right to this chip.

  Sheilor felt somewhat headache to scratch his head, he didn’t have the coffee cup by his hand. The working procedure of the First Charter was full disclosure and transparent, the body chip couldn’t be written on, only could be identified in scales by the three layers of the monitoring network, given the different limits of authority. Sheilor didn’t know how uncle could do this, but then he thought of that he even could make the false one out, any violated the known common sense or law thing, perhaps in the eyes of uncle, it wouldn’t be anything at all.

  Tonight Charlie Tai didn’t come to the H1 area, Sheilor waited for a long time, but didn’t hear that voice to sound in the talker. Perhaps the other party didn’t know how to answer his question? Sheilor frowned, somewhat helpless to laugh, he was really curious about the identity of the other party, but the more actually was still worry-- he always thought the boring conflict between the Chad siblings and him, dragged the emaciated Charlie Tai in, didn’t know whether would cause any troubles to the other party’s family.

  After thought silently for a long time, Sheilor gave up the thinking about the chip on his nape and the H1 area, began to think of these friends he met in the Pear Garden university in this year.

  Didn’t know why, he always had a kind of thought to make the mood down, just like before when he was with Charming together that kind. Maybe from today on, that like to eat the deep-fried dough pie rich childe would disappear from his life. He comforted himself, after all, they were not the people in the same world, once got along with together, it also shouldn’t be bad.

  Had to say, the grew up in the remote and deserted East Forest Region from childhood Sheilor, still had
some faint inferiority in his bones. Especially after he came to the Capital Planet Circle, those buildings, those equipments in the laboratory, those people and those things, all reminded him, actually he was still that bumpkin, even his practice course of the machine maintenance was better than the formal students. Even his those poorly few friends, all seemed to have some great background.

  Just because of this kind of inferiority, would just let him to show the mighty and insistence in front of Charming instead, and those sharp wording completely not to his nature.

  Once he thought of Charming, the lights in the H1 area seemed to get dark a lot in Sheilor’s eyes. He stared at those sending out soft white light ceiling lights listlessly, both hands assembled something quickly aside, didn’t even take a look at it.

  His hands were assembling a set of antique simulation system, these things cost him one million dollars to order from the Nutshell Maneuvering company, thanks to the federation that incomparably unobstructed logistics channel, just in half a day, then this set of antique system had already come to his hands. The specification and structure drawings had already carved in his mind long ago, he would rely on the metal sense of touch came from the fingers, assemble those parts together quickly, seemed to not worry that he would make some mistakes.

  One million dollars, he could buy a very good apartment in the Coastal state. Heard the “Dee, Dee, Dee” three long signals sounded, Sheilor knew that the assembly was successful, but he was just thinking of this sentence in his mind. This one million dollars was the money uncle left to him in the card of the Three Forest United Bank, originally he was ready to save it to buy an apartment in the future, for himself and Charming two people to live in. But now it seemed that the hostess of that apartment was abnormally strange to change her idea suddenly, so he was silently and angrily to order this set of system.

  He was not those women, spent all the money in hand, couldn’t make his depressed mood a bit better. Put that soft like the skin, but heavier than the wrestler simulation system aside, he pulled open the backpack. He took out the electronic components which he had already prepared for months, silently began to have the assembly work of another tool.

  Obviously Sheilor was much more careful this time, he pushed the metal bracelet gently, the slight light beam sent out, cast a very detailed and complicated structure drawing on the smooth inner side of the mecha. He stared at the structure drawing, carefully assembled in his hands those components, which he took apart from all kinds of the federal common tools, hid eyes didn’t even have a blink, very seriously.

  Sheilor was in the bad mood, fifty percent was because of Charming, thirty percent was because of the thing happened today and Charlie Tai, the rest of the twenty was because of his fear. He didn’t know what direction his future life would be lead to, he had been having the fire rising in his heart, but always couldn’t find the way to let it off.

  Habit is a second nature, he seemed to be back to the operating room in the mine tunnel under the East Forest Region, lowered his head, silently concentrated in repair, repaired all the things he could repair. In that quiet and no one disturb microcosm, calmed down his own mood.

  Time passed by in the process of he working dedicatedly, he didn’t know that it’s almost dawn, also didn’t know in the a wall away comprehensive gymnasium of the Pear Garden university, had already begun to prepare for the mecha performance in the following day, the come from those proud and confident officer students of the federal First Military Academy mecha performance.
