Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Since the first day the Empire arrived here, such incidents have become common, and the official force simply cannot manage so many affairs.
In most cases, each individual’s personal safety has become their own primary responsibility.
Relatively safer places are limited to schools, hospitals, and wealthy neighborhoods where they can afford to hire security.
With the Empire’s arrival, the status of security guards greatly improved.
The previous old guard were replaced by young, robust men, many of whom were veterans in combat.
Naturally, every security was armed.
Although Tian Hai territory outwardly prohibits firearms, there’s a thriving underground trade.
They want to regulate it but lack the capacity, only managing to maintain the status quo.
“What a chaotic place…”At this moment, a beautiful woman walked in.
With the sight of the beauty, the originally groaning patients all suddenly forget about their pain.
For a moment, the entire ward fall dead silent.
The beauty looked around the ward and quickly walked towards Zhao Yu.
Liu Si Yu?!
This was the woman the original Zhao Yu pursued. Zhao Yu recognized her based on the the memory.
Zhao Yu was momentarily amazed by her beauty. No wonder the original Zhao Yu fall for her.
Before he could admire her further, Liu Si Yu frowned slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of disgust.
Zhao Yu remained silent, realizing that winning her over within a year might be a challenging task.
“Zhao Yu, 1 didn’t expect you to actually jump into the lake…”
She quickly regained her indifferent demeanor, “You might have proven how much you like me…”
“But 1 can’t accept your feelings.”
Zhao Yu stayed silent, still trying to fit himself into the new identity.
Liu Si Yu was a bit surprised that Zhao Yu did not seize the moment to express his feelings. “What 1 need now was money.”
“My grandparents are both over sixty now. You still remembers the Imperial laws set by our lord….”
“I don’t want to send them to die just because of some stupid law…”
“Do you know how much the exemption fee for the two old men is for a year?!”
” Ten million, this is money you won’t be able to earn in your lifetime…”
Liu Si Yu was somewhat melancholic. If not for the Empire and the lord’s decree, perhaps she could have had her own love story like any other girl.
“Ever since the decree was announced, money has become the most important thing in this world. With my abilities, earning that much in a year is impossible…”
“So…”
Liu Si Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
Many girls had taken the easy path by approaching the wealthy
second-generation students. They had been very busy in the recent month for picking their favorite girl friend.
Although she was definitely the top pick among all the girls , she still had the thought of earning money on her own.
Until now, she still struggled with idea to make money to save her grandparents.
To prevent Zhao Yu from distracting her, she decided to end things with him once and for all.
“So, I hope you could just leave me alone…”
“I actually envy you, with no family, no worry about such matters…”
“Your love has become a burden to me…” Liu Si Yu shook her head.
After saying that, she walked away.
In the ward, many patients were fixated on Liu Si Yu, watching her like hungry wolves, only tearing their gazes away after she left.
Zhao Yu was not feeling bad about her rejection. Instead, he seemed lost in thought.
Before this, he had no idea on how to fulfill the original owner’s wishes.
With the intel she provided, he realized that with enough money to exempt Liu Si Yu’s family, there might be a turning point.
“Brother, who was that woman just now? Do you have her contact?!”
The patient in the next bed was now keen on getting Liu Si Yu’s number.
Zhao Yu ignored him and tried moving his body, with a few minutes to get familiar with his body. He got out of bed and left the ward as soon as possible.
He realized just how severe the hospital’s shortage of medical resources was even he knew it from the original owner’s memories.
The corridor was filled with injured people, some lying in beds, others sitting on the floor.
Medical staff were too busy to notice Zhao Yu.
Scratching his head, Zhao Yu headed downstairs.
Everywhere, even in the stairwell, were crowded by various injured people, even Zhao Yu who been through a battlefield could not witnessed this chaos.
By the time he reached the main entrance, he has noticed something strange.
“Is medical treatment free of charge?”
He searched the original owner’s memories and realized that institutions like his university received many subsidies from the government, including medical subsidies.
The school must have covered his medical expenses.
When Zhao Yu stepped out of the main door, he was shocked by the scene once again.
Dozens of heavily armed security formed a human wall. Beyond them was a large crowd of injured people crying out in pain and begging for help.
All the medical staff in white coats were busying saving everyone they could.
“Pay first or else no treatment. No money! No Right! We are lacking of medical stuffs and equipment…”
Hearing these shouts and seeing bundles of money being counted in the background, Zhao Yu felt disoriented.
Is this really a hospital? This looked like a bandits camp.
Fortunately, It was a one way trip. It is difficult to get in but free to go anytime.
It didn’t take much effort for Zhao Yu to leave the hospital.
Based on his memory, there was a distance between this hospital and Bing City University. If he took the bus, it would be about seven or eight stops
Zhao Yu checked his pockets and all his money eventually were gone. With the situation around him now, it was not surprised to find his money was stolen.
Zhao Yu though of trying his luck by sneaking in the crowd to board the bus. Therefore, he walked toward the nearest bus stop and began to wait.
There were only three people waiting at the bus stop: everyone looked very cautious. One of them kept a hand inside his jacket, holding his weapon.
Zhao Yu’s arrival made the atmosphere tense, and they warned him by throwing some glances.
This startled Zhao Yu, and he quickly averted his eyes.
He had just arrived in this world; he hope not to die so soon.
After a while, the bus finally arrived, and everyone started to broad on.
Zhao Yu intentionally boarded last. Upon entering, he discovered that apart from the driver, there was another staff member wearing a bulletproof vest and holding a submachine gun.
Zhao Yu’s plan failed miserable.
“What the hell are you doing? Pay and get to your seat. If not, get off now!” The driver behind the bulletproof glass said impatiently.
“I’m a student at Bing City University, I lost my money. Can you give me a free ride?” Zhao Yu begged the driver.
“Brat, Are you looking for some ‘bullet’ buffet? You wanna have a taste of it? It is FREE!!!” The security guard at the side replied Zhao Yu with his gun.
Zhao Yu’s mouth twitched a little, and he hurriedly waved his hand,” No, PLEASE! I’m really a student, I lost my money, 1 would pay it once I have arrive back to University, just…”
Zhao Yu saw the bigioo written on the coin slot.
A hundred for one trip?
Zhao Yu lost his word
“Da da da da da da da da da ~!”
The sound of a submachine gun being fired and the surrounding area where
Zhao Yu stood was penetrated by the bullets.
“STOP! Don’t. I’ll get out!”
Zhao Yu quickly leaped out the bus through the window like an action movie star to avoid being shot. Once he was on the ground, he raised his hands in the air to indicate that he had no weapons and the will to fight back.
“Bang ~!”
The door shut instantly and the bas sped away.
With the bus departure away, Zhao Yu laid on the ground and felt his racing heart beat.
“Oh Mama…My GOD! This world…”
According to his memory, the buses in this world were not that expensive.
They were about two to three dollar.
Since the decree was issued, all the price had been increasing every day. Now, it was 100.
In terms of prices, Zhao Yu realized that the money in this world was not much different from that on the Earth. The salary of an ordinary person was only 3,000 to 4,000 a month.
“What should 1 do now. It’s such a long way.. Do 1 have to walk all the way back?!”
