I’m Hoarding for the Apocalypse

247 Entering the Inner City

Everyone appreciated beautiful things, but a man with an outstanding appearance and ability was more attractive—just like He Xing. Although a handsome face would attract people’s attention during the apocalypse, it was actually useless. However, when He Xing took out the mountaineering bag full of cigarettes and wine, he looked like a shining piece of gold in the staff member’s eyes.

The staff member’s tone was gentler than before. “I’ll apply for an upper-class resident card for you now. May I know your name? Oh right, upper-class residents are allowed to bring a relative into the inner city. Do you have any relatives or friends who would like to enter the inner city with you?” As she said this, the staff member glanced at Du Yue. She could not hide the envy in her eyes.

It was good to be beautiful! If she could get close to such a man with her face, she could live in the inner city directly. Du Yue and He Xing did not expect the upper-class resident card to have such a benefit. The lady boss and Ah Ping had not told them about it before.

After a moment of surprise, He Xing and Du Yue looked at each other and nodded. “Yes, the two of us are together.”

A hint of disappointment flashed across the staff member’s eyes when she heard He Xing’s answer. However, she soon smiled again and asked, “May I know your names?”

Du Yue and He Xing had already discussed using their real names before they came here. Since the previous contractor in the underground city knew He Xing’s name, it was very likely that the celestial lord here knew He Xing as well. For safety’s sake, it was better to just randomly come up with a new name.

“I’m He Yue, and she’s Du Xing,” He Xing said with a smile. After the staff member confirmed with him, she quickly began to process the information on the computer. After waiting for less than a minute, Du Yue and He Xing received their resident cards. The resident card had a one-inch photo of them, the name that was just provided, and the serial number.

The words ‘upper-class resident’ were clearly written on the most eye-catching part of the card. Du Yue felt that these two words were awkward no matter how she looked at them, so she simply put the card in her bag. Out of sight, out of mind. After He Xing received the resident card, he only took a quick glance at it before putting it away in his bag. The staff member did not expect the two of them to be so nonchalant.

She had helped many people apply for upper-class resident cards here. Previously, every time the application was completed, those who got the cards would be so excited that their faces would turn red, and some would even laugh happily. She had also seen many people who were moved to tears after receiving the cards.

Looking at the two people in front of her, why did they not look excited at all? “We can drive straight into the inner city now, right?” He Xing asked before she could continue to wonder.

“Yes, of course, you can!”

He Xing nodded and walked out with Du Yue. The two of them strode out of the residence office, got into the car, and drove straight to the inner city.

The second base was a square-shaped base, and the inner city was at the center of the square. There were doors in all four directions of the inner city, and one could enter the inner city directly from any of the doors. Due to the long distance and the thick fog blocking their vision, Du Yue and He Xing had not been able to see the inner city.

It was not until they drove over and asked for directions that they finally got close to the inner city and saw the tall city walls. Looking up from the ground, the city walls were hidden in the fog but the top towered straight into the clouds. No one knew how high the walls were. He Xing slowed down and finally stopped at the city gate.

Entering the inner city required them to swap their cards. He Xing held the cards and swiped them on the machine. He Xing’s and Du Yue’s information appeared on the card machine. The man standing next to the card-swiping machine, dressed in dark green overalls, glanced at their car. After making sure that there was no third person in the car, he let them pass.

The city walls here were very thick. In fact, they looked more like tall buildings because Du Yue could see doors up above. Du Yue and He Xing finally entered the inner city after the car drove out of the long tunnel. He Xing did not have the time to take a closer look. He drove a little farther before he stopped the car by the side of the road.

Looking out of the window, they could see the skyscrapers in the inner city. Not only were there roads on the ground, but there were also tracks in the air. There were lights on the tracks. Even in the thick fog, the people below could see the outline of the tracks as long as they looked up.
