The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House

After waking up, Tang Yu had long forgotten the details of his dream. He only remembered dreaming of a song.

She still felt a little dizzy and weak, but even though she had a low fever, she laughed out loud when she saw the new amount in her account while lying in bed.

With this savings, she can rent a house, which is enough to pay three months' rent.

By then, she will also buy a lazy sofa and a single cooker for cooking, so that she can cook and eat by herself.

Living in a collective environment since childhood, she desperately wanted a private space that belonged to her alone, a place called home, whether it was rented or bought.

As an excellent student in geology, she will be able to find a job within three months, and then her life will be in a virtuous circle, and she may be able to settle down in the upper three districts.

But on the second day of her fever, she found that the shallow wound on her calf was itchy and there was something hard inside.

She thought there was sand stuck in the wound and didn't want the clinic to make money from her, so she used alcohol-iodine and tweezers to try to dig it out herself.

As a result, when she pinched the transparent pink and blue sand and tried to pull it out, it hurt as if her tendons were being pulled out.

The pain was ten times worse than her period, and she couldn't help but scream. Suddenly, the bed curtain was lifted. "What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Tang Yu quickly covered the wound with gauze, holding back the cold sweat on his forehead, "It's okay, just wipe it with some alcohol, it's too irritating,"

My roommate asked with concern, "Do you need help? You should use iodine. It's not as irritating as alcohol."

Tang Yu gritted his teeth and tried to reply in a normal tone, while tightly holding the thing he had pulled out in his fist.

It was a creature the size of a grain of rice, pale blue in color, with pearly scales.

There is still a bit of flesh at the base of the scale, which was torn off raw.

Tang Yu paused for a moment and carefully observed the scales. They were very thin and transparent. If she hadn't torn them off her legs with her own hands, she might have thought they were deliberately polished into jewelry like this.

But she knew clearly that this was not jewelry.

The growth of this in her body means that she has been infected.

She is no stranger to infection. All the children in the orphanage either have relatives who are infected, leaving only the children. If the children are found to be uninfected after being checked, they will be sent to the orphanage.

Or there may be infected people hidden in society who suddenly get out of control and hurt the children's relatives, leaving behind orphans.

She had been in an orphanage since she was a child, so she didn't know which type she belonged to.

Tang Yu looked down at the ID timer on his wrist. Each person's identity ID is bound to a timer that is unique and lifelong.

At the same time, when the pollution reaches a certain level, the timer can also detect it.

The pollution progresses at different times for each person, and Tang Yu doesn't know how long he will be free.

From saving up time and having good expectations for the future to knowing that I was infected, about to lose control, and had no future, there was only one day in between.

There was no one in the dormitory. Tang Yu locked the door and burst into tears.

For so many years, I have studied diligently, worked hard to pass the entrance exams, and worked part-time day and night to earn a living.

Sometimes she wondered when she could take a break and relax.

But she didn't expect that she would be able to relax in this way. Her stressful life finally came to an end here.

Even life will come to an end.

Someone knocked on the door. It seemed that her roommate had returned. She wiped away her tears, smiled and greeted her roommate.

"I'm moving out this afternoon, so I'm going to tell you guys now,"

Although her roommate felt it was very unexpected, she was very happy for her. "You found a job without participating in the campus recruitment. This will reduce our pressure. After all, you have been ranked first for many years. Let us help you move in the afternoon."

Tang Yu shook her head. She stood as far away from her roommates as possible.

"You all have very tight schedules, but I have some free time. I will move slowly by myself. I don't have much luggage, just two quilts and a few clothes."

The roommate looked around and realized that Tang Yu was indeed extremely frugal. He only had a few pieces of clothes all year round and there was nothing to move.

By the afternoon, the dormitory was empty. With tears in her eyes, Tang Yu said goodbye to every empty bed. She didn't dare to say goodbye in person for fear of holding back her tears.

Big sister, thank you for your care. I know it’s because of you that I topped up the money in my meal card so that I can have meals until the end of the month.

Second sister, thank you for always helping me get rid of the playboys who are pestering me, and arguing with those who slander me when they can't get me. Thank you for protecting me.

Xiaosi, thank you for always pleading with me and the dormitory manager when I came back late from my part-time job, and for also pleading with my tutor not to deduct my absence credits.

Thank you, but I can't be greedy for warmth anymore. I don't know how it is transmitted and I can't bring risks to you.

Tang Yu carried his bedding and an old suitcase containing all his daily necessities and clothes. He took a last, nostalgic look at the dormitory where he had lived for four years, then turned and left.

The world is so vast, there is no place for her to stay.

She was standing on the roadside in a daze, dragging her luggage with her, looking at the large electronic screen beside the road, which showed an interview with the chairman of Time Technology.

He has an elegant posture and speaks calmly, and doesn't look like a young man in his early twenties at all.

The host interviewed the chairman with admiring excitement.

"Time technology has been established for 200 years and has always been an indispensable part of everyone's life. It even broke down class barriers 200 years ago, allowing people to measure wealth by intuitive time rather than gold and silver. At the same time, it can nourish the body through nutrient solution, making it have the function of a general equivalent.

As the new generation chairman of such a great company, do you feel a lot of pressure? "

The young chairman wore a pair of crystal glasses with a gold chain hanging on them.

He wrapped a finger around the chain and chuckled, "It is indeed a great company that has made great epoch-making achievements. But as the head of the new generation, I think we can launch more new products so that young people can also enjoy the dividends of the times."

Tang Yu could no longer hear what the host said. She started to have a fever again. She stopped in front of a hotel in a remote place in a daze.

She was hesitating whether to go in or not, when she suddenly saw a girl from the same major as her, whose boyfriend she was already in a relationship with, walking out of the hotel with her arm around another girl she didn't know, the two of them were very affectionate.

As if sensing Tang Yu's gaze, the man turned around and was obviously stunned when he saw Tang Yu.

This man once pursued Tang Yu, but failed to catch up with him. He also slandered Tang Yu behind his back, saying that he was a piece of trash that others had played with, so his current girlfriend also disliked Tang Yu.

When Tang Yu saw the man coming over, he quickly took a photo of him and the strange girl, then turned and ran away.

Although she was carrying bedding and a suitcase, she ran very fast.

The man cursed a few times, gave up the chase, and quickly took out his communicator to contact his girlfriend and make up for it in advance.

After Tang Yu sent the photo to the man's girlfriend and explained the situation, he no longer paid attention to the constant messages coming from the other side.

She had a severe fever and saw double vision, so she had to find a place to rest.

I just found a small hotel nearby and checked in.

The lights in the store were dim. I huddled in front of the tall counter. I couldn't see his face clearly. I could only see the receptionist above my head. He stretched out his jeweled hand and put down a key.

"This is the edge of the upper third district. You should be careful at night. After eight o'clock, you are not allowed to go out no matter what the situation is."
