Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 216 S Area (Update )
The next morning.

Su Ming walked out of the school gate wearing a loose T-shirt, gray jeans, and white sneakers.

He walked towards the street in front of him on the right, and soon arrived at the street waiting area, where clean and tidy hovercrafts were parked.

Su Ming pulled open a hover car and sat in the passenger seat.

"Where are you going, sir?"

A middle-aged male driver who was quite old and looked talkative asked with a smile.

"Go to S District."

Su Ming simply said to the driver.

When the driver heard Su Ming's words, he was stunned and replied uncertainly.

"S District?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"No, I'm not going there."

"why?"

Su Ming looked at the driver in front of him with great surprise. He never expected that one day he would be refused a ride.

"Area S is a confidential restricted area. If you get close to it, you will be questioned. And it's easy to get in, but hard to get out! I don't make much money from you. If you go there and get questioned, if there is any problem in any link, I will be in trouble."

“Is the S area so strict?”

"Shh, don't mention District S. If you mention it too much, people will target you! Then we'll just take you to the dark room for questioning. Last time, there was an idiot in our car who complained about District S without restraint. As a result, people came to our house the next day and took him to the dark room for a few days. We thought he was kidnapped."

The driver explained fearfully.

"Then how do I get there?"

"You can either drive there yourself, or go to the rail station. There is a special train to S District. You can take it to the outside of S District and then walk there. Anyway, I won't take this business."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

Su Ming opened the car door helplessly and got out.

At this point, the driver simply gave up and stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

Su Ming looked at the figure leaving the hovercraft, sighed helplessly, and then walked towards the nearby rail station.

A moment later, Su Ming arrived at the ticket hall of the railway station.

The hall was very lively, filled with young men and women.

Su Ming walked to a self-service ticket machine, clicked on the screen and started operating, preparing to buy a ticket to Area S.

As a result, I searched for a long time on the screen, but I couldn't find the train to Area S, so I had no way to buy it.

He raised his head and looked around the ticket hall, then walked towards the No. 3 manual ticket window.

Soon he came to the window, and a sweet-looking beauty in a red and blue uniform asked with a smile.

"Where would you like to buy your ticket to, sir?"

"Area S, they don't sell it at the ticket machine."

Su Ming directly told the beauty in front of him.

When the beautiful woman heard Su Ming's words, an unnatural expression appeared on her face, and then she said.

"Okay, wait a minute!"

Then the beauty turned and left.

A few minutes later, a greasy-looking male supervisor with a beer belly, wearing a white shirt and a suit, came over. He looked Su Ming up and down and asked with great vigilance.

"Sir, would you like to buy a ticket to S District?"

"Correct."

Su Ming replied with certainty.

"Can I ask you who you are?"

The male supervisor looked at Su Ming with an increasingly unfriendly look. He had already put his hand under the counter, touching the hidden alarm button.

"I am a student of Imperial Court Academy, and this is my student card."

Su Ming took out his student card and handed it over. The male supervisor took it and looked at the student card, then looked at Su Ming's face carefully, his expression suddenly eased a lot, and then handed the student card to Su Ming and spoke.

"I see you're a freshman. What are you doing in S-Zone? That's not a place to go casually."

"I need to go to S District to do some things."

Su Ming replied tactfully.

"alright."

The male supervisor hesitated for a moment, then operated the ticket machine, and soon a red ticket popped out.

He handed the ticket to Su Ming and said.

"Take your ticket and go through the manual channel. Someone will lead you to Platform 0!"

"Thank you."

Su Ming took the ticket and left.

A few minutes later, Su Ming successfully arrived at Platform 0. The entire platform was empty, with no one in sight. He was the only one standing there.

At this moment, a rail train came from the distance and stopped steadily in front of Su Ming.

When the car door opened, Su Ming walked straight in.

He turned his head and looked around the carriage; all the seats were empty and he could not see anyone except himself.

Su Ming found a random seat and sat down. He took a deep breath. He hadn't even reached Xiguang Laboratory yet, but he had just started out when he felt the invisible pressure.

drip~
At this time, the door slowly closed, and then the train drove away into the distance.

The entrance to the S area of ​​Starlight City.

Su Ming walked out of the exit of the railway station. The moment he came out, he saw a suspended mechanical ball in the shape of an eye floating over, and its electronic eyes scanned Su Ming.

Lines of prompts appeared on the electronic screen inside.

"Identification successful."

"Su Ming, a first-year student at Royal Court Academy"

The mechanical ball then flew away.

Su Ming was also a little surprised when he saw the flying mechanical ball. Although Starlight City was very prosperous, there were still very few intelligent devices.

I didn't expect it to be so popular here. It shows either great courage or confidence.

However, Su Ming did not think too much about it. Instead, he raised his head and looked forward, and then saw the entrance to Area S.

He lifted his foot and walked forward, soon arriving at the entrance.

A middle-aged man wearing the second-generation exoskeleton armor - Rock Steel, with wrinkles all over his face, stopped Su Ming and said in a deep voice.

"Sir, Area S is a special restricted area. You cannot enter without specific permissions and a pass."

"Is this ok?"

Su Ming took out the invitation letter and handed it over.

When the man in front of him saw the invitation letter, his eyelids twitched and he immediately took it and opened it to verify it.

Then he handed the invitation letter back to Su Ming with both hands.

"please!"

"Thank you."

Su Ming took the invitation and walked inside.

Not long after, Su Ming successfully passed through layers of checkpoints and entered Area S.

When he entered the S area, a row of white disc-shaped buildings came into view. These disc-shaped buildings were irregularly located in the S area and connected to each other. The building materials used were very special, and the surface was densely covered with honeycomb-shaped pores.

Bang! Bang!
Loud noises came from far away.

Su Ming turned his head when he heard the sound and saw a third-generation mecha, Qingyi, leading five second-generation mecha, Tiewei. They looked at Su Ming and then walked straight past him.

Su Ming was also secretly surprised. The Imperial Court Academy was already considered wealthy, and even the third-generation mechas were treasures that were basically hidden away.
