Actually, it's quite simple to distinguish between city dwellers, wilderness hunters, and wilderness wanderers.

Wilderness wanderers have lived in the wilderness since childhood, fighting against strange beasts and wild animals. Their overall physique is more robust, and their skin is darker. Even the cute Penny has a layer of muscles that can be seen when she clench her arms.

In contrast, city dwellers have various convenient modes of transportation, so they are generally thin or simply overweight, with fair and delicate skin. Even those who have worked out have 'fit' muscles rather than muscular, which is easily noticeable.

Revenant hunters fall somewhere in between; most of them are relatively thin but not lacking in muscle, and have dark skin, but not overly dark.

Of course, there is another obvious difference: wilderness wanderers prefer to wear fur clothing.

For wanderers, fur was durable, warm, and readily available, while textiles brought by hunters and caravans from the city were overpriced and not as practical as fur.

Wilderness hunters typically wear textiles or synthetic leather clothing because they can easily buy industrial products at low prices and then sell the furs from the wilderness at high prices.

They themselves wouldn't bear to wear fur.

The man in front of me was also wearing a synthetic leather jacket.

"Gentlemen, are you wilderness wanderers? Which camp are you from? Perhaps I've been to your camp before?"

The man walked over and offered He Ao a cigarette.

He Ao waved his hand, indicating that he did not smoke.

Ronald did not smoke, but he also generally did not accept gifts from unfamiliar wilderness hunters.

Because you don't know if there's a large dose of anesthetic in this cigarette.

Are you here in town for fun?

The man wasn't angry when He Ao refused the cigarette. Instead, he chuckled and put the cigarette in his mouth, but didn't light it.

Then, winking at He Ao, he said, "There are so many more fun things to do in the city than in the wilderness."

"Come in and stay for a few days."

He Ao smiled and nodded, looking like a simple, honest countryman.

Penny glanced at her leader, who sat obediently and innocently beside her, not saying a word, looking like a silly country girl.

The man glanced at Penny, opened his mouth as if to ask something, but ultimately didn't. Instead, he took a business card from his clothes and handed it to He Ao.

“My name is York. I can provide some services for a fee. If you encounter any problems in the city, you can call me. I can do most things, such as introducing you to entertainment venues, or finding you accommodation or work.”

At this point, his wristband alarm went off. "My observation time is up, so I'll head out now. Have a great time in Dawn City."

He slipped the business card into He Ao's hand and walked out of the observation room.

He Ao glanced at the business card in his hand, which read:

York, the Revenant/Private Investigator

135 172nd Street

York's phone number is below.

He Ao thought for a moment and then put the business card away.

The two waited quietly for a while until their observation time was up. The monitor did not notify them to participate in any additional tests, which proved that they had passed the observation.

The two walked out of the observation room.

Outside the observation room was a bustling hall. The two people came out from a spot where they could see a large screen that displayed who should go to which window to handle their business.

He and Penny were at window number 7.

Window number 7 was empty at the moment. Behind the bulletproof glass sat a chubby male staff member in a white uniform. He glanced at He Ao and Penny, then at the computer screen in front of him.

"Wilderness wanderers? Traveling to Dawn City?"

"Yes."

He Ao nodded slightly.

Do you have smart bracelets?

The staff member glanced at He Ao, then took out a silver metal cube and swiped it lightly across the computer scanner. A red stamp appeared on the document about He Ao on the monitor.

"Have."

He Ao raised the bracelet in his hand.

"Once you enter Dawn City, you must abide by its laws. Any act that violates the law will result in deportation or even imprisonment."

The staff member looked up and pressed a button next to him. A silver metal disc in front of He Ao began to glow faintly. "Please put the bracelet in that glowing ring."

He Ao placed the bracelet on it.

His bracelet vibrated the moment he put it on.

A document was pushed to his wristband.

"This is your visa document. If you encounter any incidents in the city, this document will prove your legal status, and your rights will be protected under federal law."

The staff member explained, "The second page of the document has the phone number for the Morning City Legal Aid Center. You can contact them for any questions and get legal assistance. Below the center's phone number are links to the official websites of the Federal Department of Justice and the Morning City Department of Justice, where you can browse any federal or Morning City law."

You can also visit the Sunrise City Tourism Bureau's official website for a detailed Sunrise City tourist guide. Have a pleasant trip and lots of fun!

"Thank you."

He Ao nodded slightly and left the window.

Penny also went over and, in a daze, copied the process to complete the visa application.

Then He Ao led her out of the hall.

It wasn't until they reached the entrance of the hall and saw the wide streets and bustling skyscrapers outside that the little girl realized, "Chief, have we entered the city?"

"Ah."

He Ao nodded slightly and opened the map in the bracelet.

"So easy..."

Penny felt a little dizzy. She had originally thought that going to the city would be like crossing mountains of knives and seas of fire, with many hardships and difficulties.

But it seems like they just got in casually.

The city dweller sitting behind the glass didn't give them any trouble; on the contrary, he was very kind and reminded her to be careful and have fun.

She felt that life in the city was pretty good too?

He Ao smiled, looking at the endless city.

The difficulty has never been in getting into the city.

When He Ao brought Penny into Dawn City, it was already past 1 a.m. At this time, most service businesses had already closed, so He Ao did not start the investigation plan immediately. Instead, he took Penny to a hotel and booked two rooms.

The check-in process went smoothly; I simply registered my name, showed my visa, and paid the room fee.

He Ao is not short of money.

Although the camp gradually declined after Ronald's father passed away.

However, as a trading area that was once famous in the nearby wilderness and a large gathering place for thousands of wanderers, the camp's income was not low.

Even though most of these revenues were converted into weapons and electronic equipment, the small portion that remained as reserves, accumulated over time, still amounted to a considerable sum.

Most of the money was held in the camp's cryptocurrency account, while the remaining small portion was kept in the camp in cash, which the nomads took with them when they migrated.

He Ao took some of the cash with him when he came out this time.

Of course, he now also controls the camp's cryptocurrency accounts.

Wilderness wanderers don't seem to be able to open bank accounts in the city. At least Ronald's father never opened an account at any major bank in the city. He tried to exchange all his money for supplies, and if that wasn't possible, he kept it in a cryptocurrency account or in cash.

After teaching Penny how to use the hotel facilities, Heo took a shower, turned on the TV, took a bottle of red wine from the small wine cabinet in the room, uncorked it, poured the wine into a glass, and walked towards the room's huge floor-to-ceiling window with the glass in hand.

He Ao selected two rooms, both of which are high-rise luxury suites on the 97th floor, and are among the suites with the best views in the hotel.

Standing in front of this huge floor-to-ceiling window, the dazzling city was reflected in He Ao's pupils.

Although it was late at night, most of the high-rise buildings still had their exterior lights shining brightly.

Light and darkness intertwine to form this magnificent metropolis.

Dawn City is far more prosperous than Kaya City. Even if a behemoth like Nolanca were placed in Dawn City, it would only become one of the largest companies in Dawn City, not the ruler of Dawn City.

He lowered his head and looked down at his feet.

Looking down from such a high floor, the large vehicles on the ground appear as tiny specks of light, and countless such specks of light are strung together to form a long river of light.

That is a river of wealth.

“Mr. Christos, this is your second time on ‘Fifteen Minutes.’ Is there anything you would like to say to our viewers?”

"Hello everyone, I'm back again. This time, I'm one step closer to the goal I announced last time, and one step closer to changing this city together."

I heard a man and a woman talking behind me.

He Ao turned around and looked at the television behind him.

The popular program 'Fifteen Minutes' is being replayed on television.

The show's former host was Roy's ex-girlfriend, Monica, who was a member of the Witch's Church and was killed by Heo in the rooftop garden of the Nord Tower.

Although Monica

He died, but 'Fifteen Minutes' is still being broadcast, only now the host has changed to a younger and prettier one.

However, the popularity of the 'fifteen minutes' doesn't seem to be as high as it used to be.

“Mr. Christos, in a few days you will be sworn in as mayor of Dawn City, but recently there seem to be many things going against you. In the past week alone, there have been three anti-inauguration marches, and some opponents have even almost clashed with your supporters in the streets.”

The host smiled at Christos and asked, "How do you view these matters? After you take office, will you restrain the behavior of your supporters?"

Upon hearing this question, Christos raised an eyebrow slightly.

He Ao, sitting in front of the TV, also smiled and took a sip of wine.

This question itself is a trap. If the answer is restrictive, it means that you will hurt your supporters and affect your approval rating.
