False Court

Chapter 1172 The Gap

Chapter 132 Afternoon Tea

Su Mo circled around those mechas, touching them from time to time, and said, "You're not showing me all this just to flaunt your wealth, are you?"

"Haha, you're overthinking it. I'm just giving you a tour. Of course, you can think I'm showing off if you want, but am I that shallow?"

Xia Weiya found Su Mo more and more interesting.

"Cough, I didn't say you were shallow, but is it okay to leave the mechas here? Shouldn't they be in the hangar? You won't be able to use them when you need to."

"You don't have to worry about that. There are special exit channels here that lead to the outside of the City of Glory, as well as the inside of the City of Glory and the hangar."

"There's such an operation?"

"Don't be surprised. When you get promoted to the Royal Knights, you can enjoy this kind of treatment too."

Xia Weiya casually explained to Su Mo.

"Uh, that's a long way off. I'm not even sure if I can get promoted."

"I have high hopes for you."

"Thank you."

Su Mo coughed and thanked her.

"Let's go upstairs for some afternoon tea."

Xia Weiya gave Su Mo a brief tour and then suggested.

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded.

Xia Weiya took Su Mo on another spare elevator, which went directly to the garden.

In a gazebo not far away, servants had already prepared a delicate afternoon tea.

"Try it. These pastries are a specialty of our Laurel Kingdom."

Xia Weiya recommended.

"Very good."

Su Mo picked up a very delicate yellow pastry, put it in his mouth, and tasted it. It melted in his mouth, and the taste was sweet and delicious, very good.

"If it's good, eat more."

Xia Weiya watched Su Mo eat with interest, and she picked up a cup of hot coffee and took a sip.

After a long while, Xia Weiya said, "Su Mo, what do you think of me as a person?"

Su Mo almost choked on his own saliva when he heard Xia Weiya's words: "Cough, why are you suddenly asking this?"

"I just want to hear your opinion."

"Well, I think you're pretty good."

"A little insincere."

"No, no, it's not like that, you're really good."

"That's good."

"By the way, did you invite me here because there's something you want to talk about?"

Su Mo looked at Xia Weiya curiously.

"Can't I invite you if there's nothing?"

"Of course, you can."

"That's fine. Today is just a casual chat between friends, let's not talk about those tedious things."

"Okay."

Su Mo couldn't figure out what Xia Weiya was up to, so he could only take things one step at a time.

......

In the evening, Su Mo came out of Xia Weiya's house with a bag of pastries, feeling dazed.

He really chatted with Xia Weiya for an afternoon.

On the way, Su Mo muttered to the Creator Devourer.

"Time really flies, it's evening in the blink of an eye."

"You're still in the mood to waste time here. The City of Glory will arrive at its destination in about seven or eight days at most. Once the city is built, you'll have nothing to do. You'd better hurry up and find a way to find out about the Parla Fruit."

The Creator Devourer replied in a low voice.

Su Mo stopped and thought for a while, then changed the direction he was walking.

"Where are you going?"

"Going to work."

......

Half an hour later, Su Mo appeared in an apartment building in Zone B4.

Following the address he found, he found a room.

Knock knock!

Su Mo knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was carefully opened, and Luo Yue's small head peeked out.

"Who is it?"

"It's me."

Su Mo said softly.

She saw Su Mo standing at the door, and quickly opened the door completely, saying with surprise.

"Commander Su Mo, why are you here?"

"I just happened to be passing by, so I came to see you."

Su Mo casually made up a reason, and naturally walked in.

The house where Luo Yue lived was not big, about seventy square meters, and there was almost no furniture in the house.

There were only some old tables and chairs.

On the table was a small bowl of thin porridge, a small dish of pickles, and a spoon next to it.

Su Mo approached and took a look, and looked at Luo Yue in astonishment: "This is your dinner?"

"Uh, yes."

Luo Yue rubbed her hands and replied a little unnaturally.

Su Mo looked at Luo Yue up and down in disbelief, and asked curiously: "You're just eating this? Isn't it too bad?"

"It's actually okay."

Luo Yue replied somewhat guiltily.

Su Mo then looked around more carefully, and there was really nothing there. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as having bare walls.

Don't think that Su Mo's house is also empty, that's just because he's too lazy to decorate it.

Moreover, he might be on a mission at any time, and he might not be home for half a year or a year.

But Luo Yue's situation was obviously not the same, she had brought up some of the old furniture.

Su Mo then looked at Luo Yue up and down, and at this time he realized that the home clothes Luo Yue was wearing also looked a little old, and he asked in disbelief.

"Did Star Ring City deduct your salary? Or is the salary of mission dispatch personnel too low?"

"No, no."

Luo Yue quickly shook her head and replied.

Su Mo looked at this scene, and then recalled the area where Xia Weiya lived, it was simply heaven and earth, too exaggerated.

"Then what's going on? You wouldn't be this stingy, would you? Eating this stuff?"

Su Mo pulled up a chair and sat down to ask.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, the chair tilted, making Su Mo startled and quickly stood up.

"Commander Su Mo, it's okay, you can sit on the chair, it just sits a little crooked, but it's very strong."

Luo Yue quickly explained.

The corners of Su Mo's mouth twitched, and he said to Luo Yue: "You don't have to be so stingy, what are you saving so much money for? You can't take it with you when you're born, and you can't take it with you when you die."

"I, I don't have any money."

Luo Yue was like a child who had done something wrong, her little head was lowered to the ground.

"Then what about your salary?"

Su Mo became more and more confused, and he asked directly.

"It's all sent back."

Luo Yue hesitated for a moment, but still confessed to Su Mo.

"Sent to whom?"

Su Mo was dumbfounded. He had actually learned a little about the position of mission dispatcher.

This is a popular position. In addition to fighting for resources, it is always someone else who tries to please them. There is no way they would send their salary back.

"It's sent back to our tribe to subsidize the survival of the tribe members."

Luo Yue said with her head lowered.

"Wait, I remember you're from the Second Breeding Ground, the Kingdom of Madun, even if your kingdom is weak, it shouldn't be a problem for you to survive, right?"

Su Mo was a little confused.

"You don't understand, the upper class is the upper class, and the lower class is the lower class. In fact, no matter which country it is, the bottom class lives very hard."

Luo Yue gritted her teeth and replied.

"It can't be that bad, right?"

Su Mo's expression changed for a while.
