The Witch of the Cyberpunk Era

Chapter 972 A40 and Wasp Return to the Countryside

Xu Yang was browsing the news in the room of Hongyu Island Resort.

He now only has a nominal consultant job in the council, so the main task is to drive more piles and strengthen the connection between people.

News headlines flowed like a waterfall.

"The first commercial space residence station hotel 'Xianhuan Tiangong' opened in low-Earth orbit, only 1,000 credits per night"

"The 'Orient 14' rocket launched by the Great Northern Alliance a month ago has successfully deployed a mining station in the asteroid belt and sent back the first batch of interstellar ores."

"First-level scientific officer Niederlet led the design, and the self-adaptive 3D printed organs completely changed the status quo of transplant medicine"

"The first batch of 24 cloned mammoths were successfully released into the Yellowstone Mountains World Community Park"

"Smart roads and connected autonomous driving achieve zero accident rate"

"Xin'an Prefecture has deployed the world's first fully automatic vertical farm, which can supply fresh agricultural products to 15 million people. It covers an area of ​​only 11 square kilometers and does not require manual labor. It provides a new solution for sustainable food production in densely populated cities"

"The council issued the first batch of 'interstellar free explorer' licenses, and the era of the big universe has come"

The news in front of Xu Yang is constantly flowing, conveying the ever-changing news from all over the world.

New technological inventions are being invented every month, education, transportation, and travel are affordable for all, and entire civilizations are launching reconnaissance programs into space, out of the cradle.

Thanks to nanobots and genetic engineering, people are living longer and healthier lives, and many diseases that were previously considered incurable are now curable.

Xu Yang completely relaxed his body.

"Treat yourself well", everyone says so now, you must treat your body well, and enjoy this hard-won golden age. Because everyone's life is too sweet these days, we must insist on prolonging our lives.

Xu Cheng drove the plane back and came to find his father.

"Welcome back, did you send them back?" Xu Yang asked.

"You have too many women." Xu Cheng warned.

"Why, everyone is very happy." Xu Yang shrugged.

"I know, anyway, you are doing all this for fun, there is no point, and there is no real harm, you just don't care, you just do whatever you want!" Xu Cheng said.

"Yes." Xu Yang nodded.

"It doesn't matter, I want to go to space." Xu Cheng raised his head.

"Where's your flying club?" Xu Yang asked.

"No, the committee of the Thai Ya Islands is voting to consider banning fuel-fueled aircraft." Xu Cheng said.

"It seems that your flying club does not meet the requirements of sustainable development." Xu Yang said.

"Yes, they sent a message to my mailbox, saying that my plane emitted too much harmful gas over Hongyu Island."

"The billowing black smoke does affect the appearance of this place. We should switch to electric or fully virtual ones." Xu Yang said.

"Anyway, that's the end of my first venture. I have to contact the recycler and sell the plane I bought." Xu Cheng shrugged.

"Win or lose?" Xu Yang asked.

"After leading the last batch of students." Xu Cheng broke his fingers, "It should have earned a total of 50,000 credits."

"Hard money. How do you want to spend it?"

"It's still in space." Xu Cheng raised his hand high, "Father, I want to join Nisto Interstellar Development Company."

Xu Yang lightly squeezed Xu Cheng's shoulder.

"Deep space is too far away, Dad can't help you there, if you disappear into the universe, it will be troublesome." Xu Yang said.

"I'm not afraid." Xu Cheng sat on the chair, "The Nisto Interstellar Development Company went to outer space to find opportunities, not to die."

"Looking for opportunities in outer space is death. Like death squads in war, this is usually reserved for robots. Do you remember that in the Battle of Anchorage, we always let the robots go first? If they break They can also be salvaged, but if people are thrown into space, they will only turn into ice cubes." Xu Yang said.

"I have studied every space protocol and safety precautions, and I have seen the published parameters of Nestor's development spacecraft. I think the risk of this trip is worth taking. Dad, let me fly into space!" Xu Cheng The eyes are bright.

"Do you really like space so much?" Xu Yang didn't understand.

"Otherwise it would be too boring to stay here." Xu Cheng said.

"That's right." Xu Yang was thoughtful, "Bubble and Laila are also in the Nisto Interstellar development plan, and you haven't seen each other for a long time."

"That's great!" Xu Cheng jumped up and jumped onto the chair, "I just want to play with them!"

"How long will it take for you to finish training the last batch of students?" Xu Yang asked.

"Half a month is enough." Xu Cheng nodded, "They almost understand how to fly a small plane, and it is somewhat useful."

"Then I'll just go around the world again, and I'll come back to pick you up." Xu Yang still has old friends to see.

"Understood." Xu Cheng gave Xu Yang a thumbs up.

Xu Yang went to Jialongpo. On the corner of a block in the city, there was a flower shop without a signboard. Some flowers were randomly piled up at the door without even a signboard. The owner seemed to not want to attract customers at all.

"Knock, knock." Xu Yang walked in and put his hands on the glass door.

Hornet raised her sleepy eyes from behind the counter, she lay her hands on the cabinet, as if she didn't recognize Xu Yang at all, there were some dried flowers and fresh flowers randomly piled up around her.

"If you want to buy it, you can buy it, and if you don't buy it, you will lose it." Hornet said weakly.

"It's me, Xu Yang!" Xu Yang had to emphasize his identity.

"Oh—" Wasp opened her eyes wide, as if some consciousness had flowed into her mind, "Oh—"

At this time, she already had the figure of a young girl. After so many years, she had grown up again, but her temperament remained unchanged.

The door leading to the back room opened, A40 came over, and nodded to Xu Yang in surprise.

"Boss! Long time no see!" It stretched out a metal mechanical hand.

Xu Yang shook it. Compared with the trendy robots that are changing with each passing day, the A40 is simply too old, and people will despise it when walking on the street. Its synthetic skin and mechanics were worn away, only the electronic trackers in its eyes were still sharp.

"Are you all right?" Xu Yang looked around, this flower shop really couldn't be described as well-decorated, it looked like a coffin seller.

"It couldn't be better," said the Wasp weakly.

"Yes! Boss! It couldn't be better!" A40's tone was full of vitality, "I grow flowers, I raise flowers, and I sell flowers!"

"Can it be sold?" Xu Yang was puzzled.

"There's no need to sell it." Hornet propped his face with his hands, looking particularly decadent due to long-term irregular work and rest, "We're just looking for something to do, the world is so peaceful, we don't need to spend money on anything, we want What? What."

"But it's still broken." Xu Yang said, "At least we have to tidy up here."

"It's a beautiful place, but the facade just says that the Jialongpo law stipulates that we have to have a business here in order to be awarded such a large building." Hornet got up.

Xu Yang followed Hornet and A40 into the greenhouse garden they hid behind the shop.

The shelves are filled with pots of blooming plants, filling the space with a riot of color and fragrance.

"It turns out that there is a hole in the sky." Xu Yang looked around, and there were many rare flower seeds being cultivated.

A40 smiled sheepishly.

"Ah, boss, it's very messy here. The gardener's craft is more difficult than expected. My calculator is suitable for calculating slashes at a hundred times the speed, not plants that change for several days." A40 said.

"I just want to sharpen its temper, and use the most gentle work of planting flowers to polish this piece of iron skin." Wasp said.

"These flowers are for the Institute of Rare Plants." Xu Yang reached out to touch an alien plant, which was reading a book.

"Yes, the profit is average, and the credit points earned are enough to exchange for many good things. The work is fulfilling, and the life is peaceful. You can also spend the rest of your life with this unchanging iron sheet." Hornet stretched his waist.

Xu Yang nodded, picked up an orchid and examined it carefully.

"You two look happy and complete here, that's good." Xu Yang said.

"Did you come here to see us?" Wasp asked.

"Everything has returned to calm. I'm afraid everyone's life has found a suitable track. I also know that you will definitely return to the countryside, but if you don't come and see for yourself, you always feel that there is something missing." Xu Yang said.

The three spent a pleasant afternoon, exchanging stories about weird customers in the flower shop, as well as the joys and trials of cultivating exotic flowers.

A40 carefully trims the dead leaves of plants, laughing while telling stories. In the end, it gathers the alien plants, picks the fruit and seeds, the wasp packs them, and the two work gracefully in tandem to fulfill orders from different institutes, as if they've been doing this for decades.

Rich Terminator, Perverted A40; and "Command Reality", Crazy Witch Wasp. The final destination is here, the flower shop in Jialongpo, immersed in the work of plant cultivation in the later period of the month, enjoying absolute peace, no more fighting. Xu Yang was overwhelmed with emotion.

There is neither sword confrontation nor heroic deeds, no concern for human interests, nor high morality involved, it is just a simple home.

Against all odds, these two headstrong fellows have managed to create for themselves a safe haven, an idyllic place of retreat away from all forms of chaos and complexity. Two tired guys who have built a life they've chosen for themselves, needing no grand purpose, just being with each other day in and day out.

Maybe that's the real victory -- not what they finally achieve or achieve, but who they can choose to be.

"Do you still want to kill people?" Thinking of this, Xu Yang asked.

"Don't talk nonsense." Wasp warned, "This iron sheet often speaks wild words."

"I don't know." A40 said honestly, "I want to keep killing people, but the Hornets let me stay here, so I will stay here."

"Which priority is higher? Fighting or the Hornets." Xu Yang asked.

"Wasp." A40 said, "So, boss, I won't leave again."

Hornets breathed a sigh of relief.

"This piece of scrap metal is on my side." Hornet put his hands on A40's head, "It's not in vain that I beg Lord Faroza to fix you."

Speaking of this, Hornet turned to Xu Yang again: "What is Master Farosha doing?"

"Study the nature of the Ascension Machine, hoping to use it to imprison the Messenger of the Stars once and for all. After the coordinates are calculated, we have to carry out the final expedition." Xu Yang said.

"It's really busy." Hornet sighed, "Fortunately, it has nothing to do with us."

"Of course I have to be busy." Xu Yang stretched.

"Why?" Wasp asked.

"The wedding hasn't happened yet." Xu Yang said.
