Atlas of Heaven and Man

Facing the serious inquiry, San-shiro Arashi remained as languid and loose as ever, responding nonchalantly, “That would be me.”

The Bureau of Management personnel tapped the interface, continuing to press, “You are from the Outer Seas. What brings you to Da Shun this time?”

San-shiro Arashi said, “Your words are quite unreasonable, sir. Da Shun has always maintained that the Outer Seas are also Da Shun territory, and people from the Outer Seas are also Da Shun citizens. So why shouldn’t I be allowed to come?”

The Bureau of Management personnel said sternly, “Mr. San-shiro, please cooperate with us seriously. If Mr. San-shiro does not provide a clear answer, we may choose to deny you entry.”

San-shiro Arashi paused briefly before saying, “My grandmother and mother were both from Da Shun. I simply never had the chance to visit the hometown of the two elders. This time, I plan to take a trip there.”

The recording personnel beside him recorded his words on the interface.

“Where is that? How long do you plan to stay in Da Shun?”

“My grandmother and mother were from Jibei Province. Their old residence is on Green Peak Mountain. This time, I plan to stay here for forty-five days. Oh, and this is my pass.”

As he spoke, San-shiro Arashi fumbled around his person, took out a small green booklet, and handed it over with both hands.

The Bureau of Management personnel took a step back, cautiously accepted it, and opened it to take a look. It had the seals of the review department and the Central City government on it, and he couldn't help but frown.

He recorded the audit number and the responsible personnel on it, then tapped the interface to send out a signal.

At the same time, he instructed, “Mr. San-shiro, please accept this. When traveling within Da Shun, please do not turn off this signal. Otherwise, we will consider you to be taking dangerous actions and will immediately expel you from the country.”

After San-shiro Arashi received it, he nodded to him and said, “Thank you for your reminder, sir. I understand.”

This situation was not unusual. Any Third Limit combatant with a reputation like his needed to report to the local government when leaving the country. And all his movements, everywhere he went, would be recorded, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was under close surveillance.

Unless he was willing to hide his identity, but he didn't think it was necessary, because he came here because he wanted to, and it had nothing to do with anyone else.

After the reviewing personnel left, he was finally allowed to go ashore. As he walked out, his originally somewhat lazy and seemingly harmless eyes suddenly became sharp.

Why come here? Besides visiting the place where his grandmother and mother were born, there was also the matter of finding an opponent.

More than an hour later, he was walking on the streets of Central City in an ancient robe, and everything here made him feel very novel.

He didn't use the interface to check locations, but instead closed his eyes slightly and listened. Although the information density on the street was high and mixed, he could still quickly find the information he needed.

So another hour later, he took the tram to the entrance of the Xuangong Building.

“This is the most outstanding combat hall in Jibei Province, no, the saying here should be academy, the Wuyi Academy! A place to cultivate combatants in the new era.”

He looked at this building, a look of shock and emotion on his face, “It’s truly magnificent.”

It wasn't just the vastness of the atmosphere and the towering buildings, but also the things carried behind the buildings that made him feel sincere awe.

After looking at it for a while, he didn't stop and left here.

In the afternoon, he took the tram to Green Peak Mountain in the southwest of Central City. There used to be many residential houses at the foot of the mountain, which was where his grandmother and mother used to live. It is said that there is also a worshipped outer deity on Green Peak Mountain, it seems to be called… Mo Shen?

It should be called this name, right?

The two elders both had very heavy accents, and he wasn't sure if that was what it was called.

According to a few old photos taken in the past, he found the location of the former residential houses according to the terrain and roads, but this place had long become the home of scavengers.

When he walked over, they all looked at him with vigilant and fierce eyes, and several dogs rushed out and barked at him, but after he glanced at them casually, they whimpered and left with their tails between their legs.

He didn't approach, sighed a few times, took a few photos, and then turned and left.

“His stay is forty-five days. He has a pass from the review department and the municipal government. If he doesn't commit any crimes or violations, we can't expel him procedurally, but we will keep him under full surveillance. Brother Chen, if you have any ideas, you can raise them with the Bureau.”

Chen Chuan said, “Sister Ni, thank you.” He smiled, “If he’s coming to find me, I welcome a worthy opponent.”

At this moment, San-shiro Arashi had returned to Yinglu District and was eating noodles in a noodle shop.

There were many people from the Outer Seas here, and his dress was not conspicuous at all, and he was obviously in harmony with the surrounding environment.

At this time, a person sat down in front of him, looked at him and said, “Are you Mr. San-shiro?”

San-shiro Arashi looked up, “Ah? That’s me.”

That person nodded heavily at him in his seat, then raised his head again, “Mr. San-shiro, let me introduce myself, I am Guan Chih-kang, an external employee of the Ferris Wheel Company.”

Previously, Mr. was able to obtain the pass smoothly and pass through the port smoothly because we at the Ferris Wheel had made arrangements.

San-cheng Huang heard this, stopped, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said carelessly, "I've heard of you. You invited my junior brother over, but why didn't you come to me at the time?"

Guan Chih-kang said, "We admit that we underestimated our opponent, but Mr. Feng He only recommended Mr. Jian Cheng to us at the time, and we had no room to choose."

San-cheng Huang said, "But you could have come directly to me. That way, I could have used your tickets, and I wouldn't have had to pay for my own meals."

Guan Chih-kang was stunned for a moment. He moved forward a little and said solemnly, "We can also take good care of Mr. San-cheng."

San-cheng Huang looked at him and suddenly shook his head, "The timing is not right. Now… I think my opponent should be found by myself, not led by others…"

He said with emotion, "This is part of the journey."

As he spoke, he picked up the bowl, picked up the chopsticks, and continued to eat the noodles.

Guan Chih-kang looked at him a few times and tentatively asked, "May I ask, the opponent Mr. San-cheng mentioned should be that person, right?"

San-cheng Huang slurped all the noodles into his mouth, then rubbed his stomach, and exhaled comfortably, saying, "Ah, it's that Mr. Chen."

Guan Chih-kang hurriedly asked again, "May I ask when Mr. San-cheng will approach that person?"

San-cheng Huang thought for a while, "Not sure yet, maybe in the next few days? Maybe in ten days or half a month. The journey on the ship is very tiring. I haven't had enough sleep these days and need to catch up on sleep."

"Then," Guan Chih-kang said impatiently, "Mr. San-cheng, would you like us to issue a challenge on your behalf?"

San-cheng Huang shook his head and said, "No, I will find my opponent myself, at a specific time and a specific place."

"Understood."

Guan Chih-kang bowed in his seat, "Mr. San-cheng, if you need anything, please be sure to tell us. We will arrange everything for you."

San-cheng Huang just replied casually.

At the same time as the two were talking, Sun Rao, who was responsible for patrolling this area, and another young man were sitting in the car, looking at the situation inside the store through the car window.

The young man said, "This is San-cheng Huang, who we are supposed to be monitoring closely?"

Sun Rao reminded him, "Don't stare so closely. Third-level combatants are very sensitive."

The young man looked at Guan Chih-kang on the other side, "That's someone from the Ferris Wheel Company, right?"

"The information shows that he is."

"Since we are supposed to be monitoring him closely, shouldn't we find out what they are saying? They are using a field to shield their conversation right now, which isn't good, is it?"

Sun Rao frowned, "Our task here is only to observe and record San-cheng Huang's movements. Eavesdropping on their conversation is a matter for the technical staff."

The young man looked at Guan Chih-kang, who had finished talking and was getting up to leave, and said, "But isn't there no result now?"

Sun Rao asked vigilantly, "What do you want to do?"

The young man looked at San-cheng Huang, who was bent over eating noodles, and said, "My point is, since we can't find out, why not just go up and ask."

Sun Rao was startled, and then said seriously, "Don't cause trouble. Most third-level combatants don't have good tempers. If something happens and you get yourself involved, it's not worth it."

"Senior, you said it yourself, he must be aware that we are around him. What's wrong with asking?" The young man reached for the car door and got out of the car directly.

Sun Rao also got out of the car quickly and stood in front of him in two steps, "Cadet Wei, I am your team leader. Please return to the car immediately."

The young man glanced at him, but said, "Senior, you can't achieve results by doing things step by step, which is why you are still patrolling here."

As he spoke, his body swayed, and Sun Rao only felt a flash of figure in front of him, and the person was already behind him. He couldn't help but grit his teeth, "This kid…"

He had always heard that this kid, like Chen Junior back then, had outstanding combat abilities. He hadn't seen him much before, but the move he just showed was really not simple. No wonder the bureau valued him so much.

After the young man quickly entered the store, he went directly to San-cheng Huang, kicked away the cushion that Guan Chih-kang had just sat on, and then sat down, looking at San-cheng Huang and saying, "San-cheng Huang?"

"That's right." San-cheng Huang raised his head and glanced curiously, "Are you from the Bureau of Handling Affairs?"

The young man stared into his eyes, "Since you can see it, you should also know that you need to accept our supervision at any time. I want to ask you, what did you just say to that employee of the Ferris Wheel Company?"

San-cheng Huang said, "Although there is nothing to hide, I don't think I need to answer."

The young man looked at him and said, "I can report this directly, but as long as I add a little bit of language, the surveillance on you will be doubled next. " He leaned forward a little, "You don't want to be stared at by a lot of people every time you eat noodles, do you?"

San-cheng Huang suddenly said, "That makes sense. It seems I have to succumb, but," he held up the bowl in his hand, "Can you wait until I finish eating?"
