Chapter 49: Near And Far
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Across the complex, bright, and overwhelming street paths, all kinds of n and won walked.
They all looked different, whether in terms of body shape and size, or even hair and skin color. Their faces were covered in all kinds of colorful drawings, and their arms were all kinds of tattoos.
People ca and went, and the streets were reminiscent of a bustling postmodern movie setting.
By this ti, Yuchi had already found out where Zhang Tiangang was. He was in room 12213 on the 122th floor of the Departnt of Inspection building.
He took a detour.
Amidst the darkness of the alleys, Yuchi traversed the city.
All sorts of roars, yells, and cries of grievance rang incessantly in his ears.
It was endless.
Then, he looked toward the entrance of the alley he was in.
On the road opposite the alley, a convertible covered with all kinds of colorful drawings whizzed past. Through the visor of the black helt, Yuchi could already see the towering building in front of him.
The entrance of the building was not on the ground level of the street, but there was a 10-ter high staircase that led up to the building’s entrance. To enter the door, one had to walk up this flight of stairs.
At the bottom of the stairs, and on the side of the road.
People were whispering to each other and walking by with different expressions. They completely ignored the existence of the magnificent building next to them.
......
In Yuchi’s eyes, it was like a scene that reflected the reality of this human city.
Why was that so?
This was because the public knew that the Departnt of Inspection had nothing to do with them. The people inside this building were people with power and influence.
They did not even look at the Departnt of Inspection building. They were already completely familiar with the existence of the Departnt and what they represented.
You go your way, and I’ll go mine.
The building stood proudly in the middle of the city, climbing straight up to the clouds…
Whereas ordinary people walked by the side of the road humbly.
The world inside the building and outside the building were different.
This was what the Departnt of Inspection represented.
‘It’s extrely interesting, but it’s also shocking that things turned out this way.’
He crossed the crosswalk.
As many car owners gazed at him expressionlessly, Yuchi climbed up the stairs. The mont his right foot stepped onto the first step, everyone’s attention turned to him.
“What is this person doing?”
“He actually dared to climb the stairs to the Departnt of Inspection building?!”
“Is he crazy?”
“He doesn’t deserve to enter the Departnt of Inspection. He’ll be thrown down the stairs.”
Yuchi, who had been practically invisible just a mont ago, was now the center of attention now that he had stepped foot onto this flight of stairs. Everyone stared as if he had done sothing extraordinary.
The passersby teased.
The passersby laughed.
The passersby were shocked.
The vehicles on the road ca to a standstill.
The window of the small car rolled down, and pairs of eyes looked straight in Yuchi’s direction.
The public were like zombies; zombies that yearned for a life that was out of their reach.
Black, blue, brown and green eyes everywhere were drawn to him. The colors of their eyes might be different, but the expression in their eyes were one and the sa.
“Hahaha, he’s courting death!”
This was what was implied by their gazes.
Things were just as the passersby imagined. Before Yuchi could approach the Departnt of Inspection, the two guards at the door of the building had already walked over with furrowed brows. They had burly bodies and batons made of pure steel at their waists. Their faces had a calm expression.
In the eyes of these two people, the man in front of them, who was wearing a motorcycle helt in broad daylight, was really a bit funny. He was wearing tattered clothes and was not worthy of entering this luxurious and magnificent building that belonged to the Departnt of Inspection.
He was very dirty, right?
His body was full of bacteria and viruses, right?
“You there!”
“Take off your helt!”
“Go and change into a decent set of clothes. More importantly, book anappointnt online in advance.”
The guard stood at the top of the steps and looked down at Yuchi, who was slowly walking up. He burst into laughter and said, “Finally, I hope you can pass the inspection of our Departnt of Inspection.”
“Hahahaha.”
They were too relaxed.
At the sa ti, they were also a little happy.
After all, it had been a long ti since anyone had dared to challenge the authority of the Departnt of Inspection. Now that soone had finally co, they could finally have so proper fun.
A suspicious-sounding voice could be heard from behind the helt. Yuchi looked at the two people in confusion. “Wait, do you think I’m here to play?”
The passersby could not hear what Yuchi was saying.
They could only see Yuchi walking up the stairs step by step. In just 30 seconds, he had already arrived in front of the two guards.
Then, without saying anything, he passed by the two n and walked towards the gilded entrance.
This scene stunned the passersby.
“This person is really an idiot.”
“Does he really not know how dangerous his current actions are?”
“Why did he do that?”
“Making enemies with the Departnt of Inspection is the sa as making enemies with the entire human race.”
For a mont, the passersby were dumbfounded.
Among them, there was no lack of nosy people. They took out their mobile phones and started recording Yuchi.
“I’ll livestream what it ans to be courting death!”
“Co, co, co.”
“The man in the helt is our main character!”
They muttered as they watched with incredulity.
Normally, if an ordinary person wanted to work in the Departnt of Inspection, they would first have to submit an application on the internet. They would have to clearly state their details.
It was written that there would be an additional application fee too.
The fee varied slightly depending on the job.
In the words of the Departnt of Inspection, without this kind of fee, there would be a lot of people who would co to the Departnt of Inspection to cause trouble.
Therefore, in order for the people who really wanted the job, it was a very smart move to pay more than the required fee for their application.
This was indeed what the experts from the Departnt of Inspection had in mind.
After all, for a normal person, as long as there was no nepotism involved, it was impossible for their applications to be approved. Only those with money and power were worth considering.
In other words…
The most unattainable place for a normal person was the Departnt of Inspection building.
In the eyes of many commoners, it was like an ancient prison wall that kept them out.
The people from the Departnt of Inspection lived inside, while the prisoners were locked outside.
As a result, the Departnt of Inspection could indeed be regarded as the existence that held the final say in any decisions in the city.
There was nothing that the Departnt of Inspection could not do in the city.
Or perhaps it could be said this way…
Anything that involved money in the city was related to the Departnt of Inspection. Even if a dog gave birth to a puppy, it had to be registered on the Departnt of Inspection’s website, for a fee of course. Moreover, it was the kind of thing that could only be done through connections.
Otherwise, the puppy would be an unregistered resident. If it appeared on the street, it would be imdiately caught by the patroln and sent to the dog at shop, which was coincidentally owned by the Departnt of Inspection.
The brutal Departnt of Inspection had completely suppressed the ordinary citizens in the human cities.
As such, it was not hard to understand why Yuchi’s actions had attracted so many people’s attention.
The entire street was packed with people!
There were so many cars!
Yet there was pin-drop silence!
At this mont, everyone felt their hearts clenching with excitent!
They were looking forward to Yuchi being kicked down the stairs by the two guards!
As for whether Yuchi was injured, no one cared.
The reason was simple!
If soone like Yuchi could enter the Departnt of Inspection, then why could they not?
This was similar to the feeling of jealousy when one saw soone else accomplishing sothing you yourself could not do, and that person was not even particularly special.
Therefore, they were looking forward to the bloody scene that would ensue!
There were even so young people chewing gum and smacking their lips. From the upturned corners of their mouths, one could see how happy they were.
The joy they displayed was even more exaggerated than that of the two guards from the Departnt of Inspection. Obviously, among the hundred to a thousand people on this street, the ones who wanted Yuchi to die the most were not the two guards from the Departnt of Inspection, but the passersby who stopped on the roadside to watch the show.
