Chapter 588 Regrets Have No Place to Cry
Chapter 588 Regrets Have No Place to Cry
Li William was awakened early in the morning by the noisy morning market.
He is already in his forties and his energy is not as good as before. He also needs a quieter environment to sleep.
However, he is a resident of Hong Kong Island, where there are many people and little land, tall buildings and noisy places everywhere, which seriously affects his sleep.
After being woken up, Li William couldn't fall asleep anymore, but he just didn't have the energy. Fortunately, he didn't have to go to work today, otherwise he would have collapsed.
"William!"
"Are you up?"
His wife, Wang Mary, called from the kitchen, "Come over and help check the gas."
"it is good!"
Upon hearing this, Li William rushed to the kitchen, checked carefully, and finally solved the gas problem.
“The house is too old!”
“It’s also too small and too cramped.”
"Mary, how about we apply to immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy?"
After all the trouble, William was exhausted. Looking at the small house of less than 60 square meters in front of him, he suddenly felt that he didn't want to live here for the rest of his life, and he began to think about immigrating to the Central Plains galaxy.
"Immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy?"
"Is there anything wrong with your mind?"
"If we want to immigrate, should we also immigrate to Britain or the Central Plains Galaxy and become primitive people?"
When Wang Mary heard this, she couldn't help laughing.
Even though it is already a new era, there are still a large number of people here who always think that Britain is the beacon in their hearts.
"There's something wrong with your brain."
"It's already such a long time, and it's not even Britain."
When Li William heard this, he was speechless.
"A skinny camel is bigger than a horse."
"Even if Britain is not good enough, it was still the empire on which the sun never set. Even a broken ship still has three pounds of iron."
"It won't be worse than inland."
"I regretted it back then. I regretted not immigrating there like Lucy Chen and the others."
"They are living quite well there now, living in a big house and enjoying the free air."
Wang Mary said with great regret.
"Do you really believe everything in her circle of friends?"
"I don't believe it."
"Today happens to be Saturday, how about we go visit Chen Lucy and see the Britain in your mind?"
Li William smiled. He also had many friends and classmates who had immigrated abroad. None of them regretted it now, and many even regretted it bitterly.
They want to go back but can't, and they see no hope staying where they are. Many lawyers, university professors, etc. who used to have status and position here can only wash dishes, deliver takeout, do cleaning, etc. after immigrating here. Their lives are very hard.
Now you actually say that they live in big houses, enjoy the air of freedom, and also say that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
Li William decided to take his wife Wang Mary to see it in person.
"Okay, let's go!"
Wang Mary said confidently: "It just so happens that I haven't traveled to Europe for a long time. I don't believe what is said in the virtual world."
The two of them left as soon as they said they would, and directly called a Didi taxi.
In fact, they can afford the aircraft, but they have nowhere to park it. The land here is too precious, and there are only high-rise buildings here, which cannot even be renovated.
Even though anti-gravity aircraft have become very popular, they, like many locals, have not purchased them because there is no place to park them.
Anti-gravity aircraft take up more space than cars and require a larger space to park.
In Hong Kong, where every inch of land is valuable, buying a spot to park an anti-gravity aircraft is much more expensive than the anti-gravity aircraft itself.
Wang Mary did not inform her good friend Chen Lucy in advance, but came directly to the community where Chen Lucy lived.
As soon as I got off the anti-gravity aircraft, an odor of dilapidation, dirtiness and disorder hit me in the face, along with all kinds of pungent smells that were foul.
"Uh~"
Wang Mary couldn't stand it anymore and vomited on the side of the road.
It was so smelly that she could even see lumps of it on the side of the road, which made her even more nauseous and she vomited continuously.
"How could this be?"
"The garbage has piled up into a small mountain, why doesn't anyone clean it up?"
“Why is there an Oli Gei on this road?”
After a long time, Wang Mary recovered a little and said with an unbelievable look on her face.
"Because this place is completely ruined!"
Li William said calmly: "The sanitation workers here have been resting at home for almost two months because they complained that their salary growth was too slow and could not keep up with the rising prices."
"Come on, let's go and see how Lucy Chen is doing, who is enjoying her freedom and living in a big house."
Li William shook his head, looking at the dirty and messy streets in front of him, which were full of garbage, graffiti, traces of fire, and various kinds of vandalism.
This place used to be the beacon in his heart, the free world he longed for, and he almost immigrated here.
Fortunately, he did not immigrate here, otherwise he felt that he would collapse living in such an environment.
Turning a corner, she heard a noise and quarrel. One of the voices made Wang Mary feel very familiar. Even though she hadn't seen it for many years, she could still recognize it as the voice of her good sister Chen Lucy.
At this moment, her voice sounded like she was crying poor. She quickly quickened her pace, turned the corner and looked over.
She was seen kneeling on the ground with blood all over her face. Her husband was knocked unconscious on the ground. The door of her house was kicked open. A group of gangsters broke into her house unscrupulously, constantly looking for money in her house and taking away everything that looked valuable.
Before leaving, he seemed dissatisfied with his gains and kicked Chen Lucy hard several times.
"555!"
"Fuck you, old man!"
"They come to rob me every other day."
"You bastards, you shall not die well."
Lucy Chen cried and hurried to see her husband Peter Zhang.
Zhang Peter soon woke up. Looking at his messy home and then at Chen Lucy whose face was covered in blood, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Peter Zhang used to be a university professor and Lucy Chen was a music teacher. The couple used to live a pretty good life.
But since immigrating here, it's been like falling from heaven to hell, especially in recent years.
With the gradual decline of the financial industry, the last industry here, and the gradual loss of its status as a financial center, everything here has become worse.
The unemployment rate remains high, public security is in chaos, and many existing problems continue to be exposed, resulting in all this.
Someone had dared to break into their house and rob them half a day ago, and they had already called the police, but no one came.
"Lucy!"
Wang Mary walked over and looked at Chen Lucy in front of her. She couldn't believe that this was her good sister.
At that time, Lucy Chen was young, beautiful, elegant and noble, and had the aura of a lady from a noble family.
However, now Lucy Chen is wearing cheap, torn and tattered clothes, she is very thin, her eyes are dull, and even her hands are very rough. They are no longer the hands that played the piano in the past.
Next to her, her husband, Zhang Peter, who was also a bespectacled, gentle intellectual back then, is now very thin, with an untidy beard, sunken eyes, and a listless look. There is no trace of the spirited university professor he once was.
Hearing Wang Mary's words, Chen Lucy was slightly stunned, then slowly looked up and saw her good friend Wang Mary whom she hadn't seen for many years.
"Mary!"
Lucy Chen quickly stood up and wiped the blood off her face in a panic. She felt too embarrassed to face her best friend.
"Lucy, you are injured. Let me take you to see a doctor."
Wang Mary came to Chen Lucy and looked carefully at the wounds on her face, which were covered with bruises.
"how so?"
"Aren't you guys doing well?"
Wang Mary still looked at everything in front of her in disbelief, and then looked at the house behind her. The house looked very dilapidated, with weeds growing all around it and graffiti on the outer wall.
"Come in and sit down and talk."
Although Lucy Chen and Peter Zhang were injured, they had no intention of seeing a doctor.
Because they know very well that they have to wait half a year to get a turn at a public hospital, and they simply cannot afford the expensive medical expenses at a private hospital.
I just went home and took care of it, applied some medicine and that was it. I had been through it that way before. "There's no tea leaves at home, drink some boiled water."
Lucy Chen poured a cup of hot water for Wang Mary and Li William, then sat down with a gloomy expression.
"Lucy, are you guys okay?"
Mary asked with concern.
"Mary, William!"
"You are still as young as before. There is not much change."
Chen Lucy looked at Wang Mary and said enviously.
"We have been using anti-aging drugs, so it seems that there is not much change, but after all, I am in my forties, and many aspects cannot be compared with when I was young."
Wang Mary said.
"You all have access to anti-aging drugs, but we are having a hard time even living right now."
"I regret it! I regret very much, I regret coming here."

Lucy Chen said enviously, then she slowly stretched out her hands and said, "I used to use these hands to play the piano and teach!"
"But it can no longer play the piano. It has washed dishes, delivered packages, moved goods, and done all kinds of dirty and tiring work, but it has never played the piano again."
"We were lied to!"
"After we came here, our identities were not recognized, and it was difficult to find a decent job here."
"In recent years, as the financial, technology and automobile industries here have all slumped, the economy has been torn apart and unemployment has soared, our lives have become even more difficult."
"Not only can he not find a job, but he has to live frugally with his previous savings. And as you just saw, he is often bullied. Some even break into his house and rob him in broad daylight."
Chen Lucy said lightly, as if all the hardships and grievances she had endured over the years seemed insignificant.
"Why didn't you call the police?"
Li William asked in confusion.
"We have some, but as you can see, no one has come until now."
"hehe!"
"In the eyes of the locals, we are just outsiders, and we are the easiest and most humble outsiders to bully."
"No one cares about our life or death. Everything was a lie to us. We have never been truly valued or treated equally since the moment we arrived here."
Zhang Pete said with a helpless smile.
Then he and Lucy Chen slowly began to tell Wang Mary and Li William about their experiences over the years and everything they had experienced since they came here.
"It's very chaotic here now, with theft, robbery and gangs running rampant. We want to leave, but we can't because we have no money. If we leave here, we won't even have a home to live in."
"But now our house can't be sold at all. The house prices here have plummeted a long time ago. People with money and means are trying to escape from here. No one is buying houses anymore."
“We bought this house after we sold our house in Tsim Sha Tsui and moved here.”
"We only have this house left now, and other than that we are penniless."
Lucy Chen said with a wry smile.
"Why don't you come back?"
Wang Mary listened carefully, thought about it and asked.
"Return?"
"We can't go back. Our documents are not recognized, and we are not recognized here. We have been completely abandoned."
Zhang Pete smiled bitterly.
"Mary, are you here specifically to see me this time?"
Lucy Chen looked at Wang Mary and asked.
"Yes, William and I are planning to immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy. We want to visit old friends in various places before the end."
Wang Mary thought about it and nodded.
Li William, who was standing next to him, was slightly surprised when he heard this, but didn't say anything.
"I really envy you for being able to immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy."
"I still dream about what would have happened if I hadn't immigrated here."
"I should be able to live a pretty good life now."
"You can own a beautiful house and anti-gravity aircraft of your own, and go wherever you want. You can even immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy."
"I have watched many videos of the Zhongyuan Galaxy. It is very beautiful and very suitable for living."
"Every household has its own garden or vegetable patch, where they can grow their favorite vegetables and travel around when they have time. That's the kind of life that's real freedom."
"Instead of living here with a bunch of barbaric, ignorant, arrogant, corrupt trash."
When Chen Lucy heard this, she immediately became envious.
"Yeah, I envy you guys!"
“To be able to live in a country with the most developed economy, the most advanced technology, the most advanced and the most civilized.”
Zhang Pete also said sadly.
"Are you really not going to care about me anymore?"
"So many people came out at the beginning, how can you just ignore it?"
"Aren't you talking about developing new life planets now because you are short of manpower?"
"Can't you all join together to apply for restoration of your status and go back?"
When Wang Mary heard this, she immediately said in confusion: "Since everyone has realized their mistakes, they should be generous and forgive everyone and accept each other again."
"Mary!"
"We have tried, and more and more people have submitted applications together."
“No one who came here back then regretted it.”
“Some are even very wealthy, but their lives after coming here are far worse than before.”
"Here, we are always outsiders, and we have no identity or status. Even if we are rich, in the eyes of the locals, we are just a fat pig. We have been slaughtered many times."
"We have tried all kinds of ways to go back, but we can't go back."
Lucy Chen said, shaking her head.
"Yes, we can never go back. We can't even get through the main door. We were directly rejected."
Zhang Peter also said: "We have mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to petition together, but it is useless because now we are British citizens, but the funny thing is that we are not recognized here either."
"If I hadn't chosen to leave, maybe our lives would be completely different now."
"We can enjoy the dividends of the development of the times, have stable jobs with considerable income, live a refined life, and even have children of our own."
"When we are older, we will apply to immigrate to the Central Plains Star System, where we will own our own ranch or farm, grow vegetables and herd cattle and sheep every day, and spend weekends with our children and grandchildren, full of laughter and joy."
"It is only now that I truly understand that the culture and ideas left by our ancestors are truly precious wealth!"
"It's a pity that we were so superstitious about their heresy and believed their lies that we ended up regretting it for the rest of our lives!"
As Zhang Peter spoke, he imagined what his life would be like if he had not come here.
"You didn't have any children?"
When Wang Mary heard this, she immediately widened her eyes and asked.
"no!"
"Our lives are so bad, we have no money, our lives are unstable, and coupled with this terrible environment, we don't want to have children at all."
"Besides, the medical expenses here are too expensive. If you don't have insurance, you can't afford to see a doctor at all."
"So we never had children, and we didn't dare to have children."
Lucy Chen said, shaking her head.
Wang Mary and Li William were completely silent and didn't speak for a long time.
After sitting at Lucy Chen's house for a few hours, Wang Mary saw that Lucy Chen was hesitant to speak before leaving. She thought for a moment and said, "I'll transfer 5000 yuan to you. As a friend, this is the only thing I can do to help you."
"If the policy changes in the future, you can contact me if you need any help when you are able to come back."
"Thank you, Mary!"
At this moment, Lucy Chen finally cried and cried out loud.
Wang Mary and Li William returned home, and Wang Mary immediately said to Li William: "Go apply for immigration, let's immigrate to the Central Plains Galaxy together!"
