Monroe is an American. His parents are the first generation of immigrants from Brazil. He spent a lot of patience and energy in order to integrate into the United States. In his generation, he joined the army for college loans. Due to some kind of luck or misfortune, he has With his strong physical strength, his natural intimacy with the ocean, and his exaggerated underwater unequipped diving performance, he got the opportunity to join the Marine Corps and face the China Mobile Supply Station.

Monroe very much hoped that he would never have such an opportunity in his life. Although he received censorship and various psychological counseling after returning to China, he still could not forget the fear.Many colleagues said "what does that feel like", "what does that thing look like", and other such questions, he thought about it, and the only word he could think of was-

"Small."

It is said that the area of ​​China Mobile's supply station is actually about the same as that of an aircraft carrier, but the city of the sky that has experienced shell washing is very stable, just like the earth.Buildings can be destroyed, and chariots can be destroyed, but the earth will never be afraid of human artillery fire, and neither flames, impact force nor nuclear radiation can shake the earth a single bit.

Now, the Chinese have taken the earth to the sky, to the top of everyone's heads, which is really shuddering.

Monroe survived the "mis-collision in the Sea of ​​Japan" relying on his amazing diving talent. One of the main reasons is that he was not on the ship at the main impact point. Even so, the waves caused by the impact were like a seven-level tsunami. The destroyer flew into the sky, then twirled and fell face-down into the sea.

Human beings are really insignificant.

After the investigation, Monroe got a benevolent choice due to psychological problems, and immediately chose to retire. Of course, college loans were not even considered.He returned home and cried with his parents, and then began to work three jobs until "The Awakening Age" was released for download in the United States.

The journey to the Big Stomach King's work is not close every day. Monroe chooses to run, relying on his abundant physical strength to save transportation costs. By the way, he can also find some equipment, props and awakening skills that no one is looking for. Americans are not used to this kind of His colleagues thought he was crazy when he knew about the long-distance travel in the city. However, by relying on these, in just one month, his battle ranking jumped to No. 1 in the state, and he was qualified to go to China to participate in the global league .

Monroe was not afraid of fighting, so he packed his luggage and embarked on the journey to China without hesitation. He had no sponsor and had to buy his own air tickets. He borrowed money from his parents to make the trip possible.

Friends and relatives don’t think Monroe can succeed. After all, the league needs to form a team and he doesn’t know anyone. The small city he lives in is very comfortable, and many immigrants have fully integrated into the rhythm of the American countryside. Even his joining the army and going to college are difficult. An outlier in the family.

Such a rural town has both disadvantages and advantages. For example, refreshed props and equipment are always easy to grab.

The "wormhole door" between the United States and China has not yet been opened. Monroe needs to take a plane for more than 20 hours to reach the ancient country on the other side of the ocean. He has heard a lot of news about China since he was a child. Panda", "Dog Meat", "Cheongsam" and "A Horribly Long History", now "Laputa in the Sky", "Chief Examiner", "Awakened" and "Solar Energy", time is great and will change everything.

The flight was not comfortable, and Monroe had to squeeze into a narrow seat, watching the stewardess serve the passengers with a stinky face.

Someone complained, someone kept sighing, a quarrel broke out, and he heard an old woman say in a sharp tone: "Don't make such a face to me, when the 'Wormhole Gate' is built, no one will want to see it again." Fly on this damn plane! So cherish your last earning time, you will have to find another job in a few months!"

The stewardess turned even worse and replied: "Yes, in a few months, I won't have to deal with you, a loser who can only fly economy class! I'm sorry, but I've found a new job, a member of the 'Lightspeed Group'." Great salary and accommodation!"

"Shut up your sharp teeth!"

Monroe sighed inwardly, but when he put on the earphones, there was no sound. When he found the coin counter and found that he still needed money, he couldn't help but look forward to the completion of the "wormhole gate" as soon as possible!

With a longing for a better life in the future, Monroe was shocked by the alien-style design of Beijing International Airport as soon as he got off the plane.

"It's a pity, this airport will be useless soon." The old woman who had quarreled on the plane said disdainfully, "How much is it, what a pity!"

Monroe didn't think so. Buildings would never be wasted anyway. He grabbed his backpack and walked along the signs, surrounded by players from all over the world.The playoffs are held in Beijing, and the air tickets are paid by themselves. What an unreasonable request, but no players say anything, and even if they go bankrupt and borrow money, even if they can't win the championship in the end, there are more opportunities here.

The corridor at the airport is very long, leading directly to the exit on the second floor. Monroe saw that the floating taxi and the floating bus were divided into two places. Travelers lined up to get on the bus. The size of the bus was terrifying. It was scary, which made for a very short line.

He walked to the edge of the second floor and looked down. There were some sparse crowds in the square on the first floor. They were driving. However, the number was very small. Even if many people were driving, they were floating vehicles. The sky was full of vehicles entering and leaving the airport. Like bees going in and out of a hive.

This scene is not common in the United States. There are suspension vehicles but they are not so popular, let alone small rural towns.

Monroe sighed as he got on the bus and paid for the bus fare with his mobile phone in Chinese that he forcibly memorized. All people who come to China will install those two softwares, which is very convenient, but they cannot be paid in US dollars and must be exchanged abroad. Currently, the U.S. dollar is bullish all the way, and it is very distressing for him to exchange RMB.

After the bus started, the scenery became wider, and Monroe was lucky enough to get a window position where he could see the skyline of Beijing. The scenery in those videos became vivid, the city layout like a chessboard, the horizontal and vertical streets, exotic The amorous feelings made him dizzy.

When an unnatural shadow appeared on the ground, Monroe looked up involuntarily, and his body trembled immediately. However, he calmed down. The shadow now represented peace, not the fear at sea.

Tianjing, Beijing's Sky City.

Tianjing is bigger than it appears in any video or picture, floating quietly at an altitude of 500 meters like another world.There are some small fragments scattered around, which are small pieces of ground that have not yet been assembled into the main city. After Tianjing is completed, it will form a giant of nearly [-] square kilometers. It is the largest and only man-made city in the sky so far. .

The bus was driving very steadily without any bumps. Monroe looked up and saw a young girl holding a drink outside the window. This billboard was floating on both sides of the bus route, every few hundred meters. There will be a piece with various shapes. If you look carefully, you will find that the advertising base is assembled from the bottom of the car. Obviously, it is too expensive to specially ask the awakened person to make the billboard, and the scrapped suspension car has a chance to use the waste heat. .

Monroe felt very novel about all of this. Before the bus arrived, he got off the bus and walked to the hotel according to the map on his mobile phone, wanting to see more of the city.

Everything seems to be no different from other big cities. Monroe carefully found that many places are covered with a strange layer of paint, even in unnecessary places. For example, most of the streets are obviously made of asphalt. It can be seen, but it is still painted with a layer of gray paint.

He took a photo of the ground and sent it to a friend who had always wanted to immigrate to China.

"This is a full-power conversion coating for solar energy. This new type of coating is used for solar panels in space." My friend quickly replied, "In short, any coating can convert solar energy at full power as long as it uses this awakening technology. Old solar panels It can't be done."

"Why paint this on the ground?" Monroe asked curiously.

"To supply power to municipal facilities, such as traffic lights, electric lights, and roadside monitoring, there are generally no utility poles in major cities in China. If the rainy weather is not considered, underground cables may not be needed. It is said that Beijing generally sets up two power supply systems. China People have made great progress in the regulation and storage of solar energy in the past few years, and the power supply is provided by these ubiquitous solar conversion coatings, and electricity seems to be free of money." My friend quickly replied with a long paragraph, and we can see the excitement in it , "I heard that the water cycle system has appeared, the continuous water purification function without power, my God, these things will solve the famine and poverty forever! Do you know? Many people think that the Chinese will realize the real communism within ten years Doctrine, because energy and water can be supplied without limit, and they can also create new land!"

Monroe was a little amused by his friend's excitement: "I don't think so, after all, everyone is human, and being rich doesn't mean everyone is rich."

"At least they can achieve a comprehensive well-off."

"What does Xiaokang mean?"

"Middle class."

"That's a good thing."

Monroe acted calmly, but he felt some curiosity about this country in his heart, just like meeting a beautiful woman with outstanding charm, who has a profound background and rich knowledge at the same time, which makes her extremely attractive.

Maybe I should come and live here for a while, Monroe couldn't help having this idea. His parents were immigrants, and the previous generation of grandparents went to Brazil from Europe. Their family seems to have a wandering gene, yearning for a better life. place.

"Do you think I can live here?" Monroe asked his friend.

"Oh, four years ago, it wasn't that difficult. You could get a good job by teaching English and being white-skinned. Now, it doesn't work." A China Hand friend replied, "China just released a new policy for foreigners. The laws related to work have raised a lot, and those ordinary people, who used to be friendly, now, they have also learned what arrogance is, and the former heavenly kingdom has returned.”

Monroe looked a little confused: "What does the Celestial Dynasty mean?"

"The middle kingdom of the world." My friend chose a simple explanation.

This conversation gave Monroe a little general information about New China. However, he doesn't need to worry about that at the moment, he just needs to find the reserved hotel according to the map.He was a little confused by the map. After asking a few passers-by, he found the right direction. The passers-by were very friendly, and he felt that his friend was too worried.

The hotel was small, like a private family hotel. The lady who received him had a similar expression to the flight attendant on the plane, and when the key was thrown out, it looked like a grenade.

"...a foreigner...doesn't take a bath...smelly..."

Monroe could barely make out the words in Chinese, and couldn't help but feel a little shy. There was no shower on the plane, so he could only wash his face to keep his face from getting wet.Fortunately, the room was small but very clean. At least it seemed that he was not going to delve into what happened to this white-looking bed. After all, life is long, and many things should not be fussed about.

Take a shower and order a takeaway—the experience of the delivery boy knocking on the window to deliver the food is very interesting, and this is also the joy that China Tong friends strongly recommend him to experience. These apps are installed by China Tong for him, half of them He still doesn't use it.

When night fell, Monroe was very sleepy, jet-lagged. Fortunately, his training in the army made him extremely patient, so he moved his body a few times and decided to take a walk after dinner.

There were quite a few people on the street, including many foreigners. Monroe couldn't help smiling when he saw the familiar man holding his mobile phone to the sky.He took out his mobile phone and refreshed the vicinity, which was full of unfamiliar names, which did not affect his good mood.

With so many people, you can always find one or two like-minded friends, right?

With this thought in mind, Monroe walked into the night complacently.

At the same time, Lin Qiu was facing a very strange problem.

"Son of the severe winter year?"

Lin Qiu looked at Xiao Yang with an idiot expression, frowning and opening his mouth.

Xiao Yang also seemed a little embarrassed, and said: "Calling himself to be his son, that is... that bastard committed a crime and claimed to be the son of the chief examiner, so he reported it to the awakening office."

"No..." Lin Qiu uttered a famous buffering vocabulary, "He just said yes?"

This is a fact. Lin Qiu believes that there are countless people all over China who use the name of the chief examiner to bluff and cheat. This kind of thing didn't happen at the same time, it often appeared in the news.

"The main reason is that he does look a bit alike." Xiao Yang gave an unexpected answer.

Lin Qiu immediately became interested: "Do you have any photos?"

Xiao Yang took out his mobile phone and showed a photo of his ID card. Lin Qiu saw it, hey, it does look like it!

The most distinctive feature of Yan Dongnian's face is that the facial features are completely balanced, there will be no big or small eyes, and no skewed face. It is impossible for ordinary people to do it, and there will be some changes to some extent.

The left and right sides of the person in the ID photo are basically the same, plus the facial features are pretty good, without any major defects, it really looks a bit like a severe winter year.

"Even if they look alike, this one is in his early twenties, right?" Lin Qiu said dumbfounded, "Yan Dongnian can't give birth to such a big son..."

Before the words were finished, the big iron gate of the courtyard was suddenly kicked open with a bang, and Yan Dongnian, who ran out after chasing the black cat, rushed back and shouted nervously: "I don't have a son! I don't have a son!"

Lin Qiu: "..."

Xiao Yang turned his head silently, indicating that he didn't see anything.

Regardless of whether it can be born or not, it doesn't match at all based on age. Besides, Yan Dongnian is not from this world at all. He has only been here for a few years. However, this news has been criticized by the outside world. It is "this setting is too ridiculous".

"Anyway, that's what happened." Lin Qiu said, "Let's treat it like a liar."

"Okay." Xiao Yang said skillfully, "Then I'll go and release that thing."

Lin Qiu felt wrong when he heard it: "Let go? Didn't you say he committed a crime?"

"Drunk driving." Xiao Yang said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that he keeps yelling that he is Brother Yan's son."

Lin Qiu originally thought about it and let it go, but Yan Dongnian "pinched his fingers" and said seriously: "I'm going to see him."

Lin Qiu: "Huh?"

Xiao Yang: "Huh?"

Yan Dongnian said seriously: "Let's go see him, it's necessary."

Of course, Lin Qiu had nothing to do, since it wasn't a big deal anyway, the three of them called Brother Quan, and this line of work quickly started on the road, almost standard for the team.

The imposter is in a small village, which is quite prosperous due to the terrain. The "wormhole gate" is under construction, and there are noisy construction sites everywhere.

Lin Qiu and his party met the "Second Generation Yan" at a small local police station. He was sitting behind the railing of the detention center with his legs crossed. The eyes are raised, the nostrils are turned up.

"Did you ask clearly? Should I be let go?" Yan Erdai said calmly, with great momentum, "You little policemen at the grassroots level don't know anyone, and you don't know how to do things. I haven't had a car accident or hit me People, just lock me up for this little thing..."

Yan Erdai seemed to want to make a long speech, but when Lin Qiu came in, he froze when he saw Lin Qiu's face, and his posture became stiff.

"What's the matter? Don't you want to meet someone?" The policeman in charge of the local police station gloated, "Isn't this here? Look, the person you're looking for."

Yan Erdai was stunned for a while, then suddenly stood up, grabbed the fence and yelled, "You vixen!"

Lin Qiu: "..."

Xiao Yang, who is so eloquent, turned his head silently, having nothing to say.

Yan Dongnian was a step behind, and when he heard this sentence as soon as he came in, he said calmly, "I don't have your son."

Only then did Yan Erdai discover the existence of Yan Dongnian, his face flushed immediately, and he didn't know why he was hesitating. The few of them stared at each other silently for a while, and he seemed to have made up his mind, and shouted enthusiastically: "Dad!"

Xiao Yang burst out laughing, lowered his head and covered his mouth, trembling all over.

Brother Quan was even more impolite, laughing and patting the fence.

Even Lin Qiu couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, showing no signs of anger.

Harsh Winter is the only one who spouts: "You shut up!"

It was rare for Lin Qiu to see Yan Dongnian so angry, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange, and started to look at him.

"I don't have this kind of son!" Yan Dongnian seemed to be worried about something, pointing at Yan's second generation and repeating again and again, "Don't believe it!"

"Why do you think I will believe it?" Lin Qiu asked incomprehensibly, "Do I look mentally retarded?"

"It's not...that's..." Yan Dongnian murmured his lower lips and changed it to a communication of consciousness, "Lin Qiu is very suspicious, and there are many incredible things in the world of the awakened, so they always assume this first. Things work."

Lin Qiu didn't expect this to be the reason. Judging by Yan Dongnian's reaction, he had obviously been wronged more than once and couldn't refute it, so he tried his best to explain it, no matter how abnormal the assumption seemed.

For a moment, Lin Qiu felt distressed, no matter how the dog was raised by him, why should he be ruined by others?

Oh, no, the one who ruined it was myself...

Lin Qiu pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "You must come here, just to prove that this matter is false?"

"That's right!" Yan Dongnian nodded, "It's true!"

"I believe you." Lin Qiu took Yan Dongnian's waving hand and said seriously, "I have always believed in you, whether it is private or business, I believe you will not lie."

After careful calculation, Yan Dongnian really seldom tells lies, and more often avoids things that cannot be said by changing the topic or missing the point. Lin Qiu made it.

No matter how much Lin Qiu slandered himself in other worlds, the soothing words really worked. Yan Dongnian obviously relaxed, and returned to his indifferent and calm appearance in front of outsiders. Looking at Yan Erdai's eyes was like looking at a speck of dust.

Yan Erdai is not mentally handicapped, so of course he knew that something was wrong at this time, and after the sentence "Calling Dad passionately", he lowered his head and muttered without knowing what he was talking about.

"What are you talking about?" the local policeman knocked on the fence with his baton and asked, "Speak up if you have something to say!"

"If it wasn't for my younger sister's troubles, I wouldn't rush back in such a hurry!" Yan Erdai—oh, yes, it should be called "fake second generation"—called out as if full of grievances, "She alone Without a handle, what qualifications do you have to snatch your parents' inheritance, I am the only child in the family!"

"Aren't you the chief examiner's son?" The little policeman said sarcastically, "Where is my sister?"

The fake second generation was choked, and then shouted in a broken jar: "You are also local, you ask which family has this custom, and the daughter can still get property?! I am not married yet, what if something happens to me? , our Yan family is finished!"

"How dare you say your surname is Yan?" Brother Quan jokingly said, "Do you want to recognize your father so much?"

"My real surname is Yan!" The fake second generation said pitifully, "My name is Yan Xia, born in summer!"

The few people were taken aback, and the little policeman quickly checked, and the result was soon: "Are you really from our village?"

"Yes!"

This is not surprising, after all, the name Yan Dongnian is very simple and full of Chinese local customs.

"Hearing the name is really a style of painting." Brother Quan said casually.

Yan Dongnian's face suddenly changed, and he turned his head to say something, but Lin Qiu had already grabbed his hand and shook him, and he immediately fell silent.

Anyway, it’s all here, it’s still early, Lin Qiu decided to take care of this matter by the way, he still remembers Lu Hong’s tragedy, and he can take care of one.

"Let's go and have a look." Lin Qiu said to Xiao Yang.
