Become a legend in the interstellar

Su Xiaoxia?
Su Xia pursed her lips, it sounded like a girl's name.

Of course, even without the "little" in the middle, his real name still sounds like a girl's name.

Regarding the name, it has to be traced back to when he was just born, when his mother named him "Su Dabao", and his father named him "Su Xiaoqiang", and the two argued endlessly.

The last uncle couldn't stand it anymore and named him Su Xia.

Withdrawing her thoughts, Su Xia took off the card on the sensing device.

Then, a "beep" was heard.

The door opened a crack, and a faint light shone into the dark corridor.

Behind the door is a tunnel with glowing light strips on both sides of the tunnel, which is wide enough to accommodate cars.

Su Xia continued to walk forward, walked more than 20 meters, and reached the end of the tunnel.

With calm eyes, he stood at the end of the tunnel and looked out.

"This is Dragon City, or rather, a part of Dragon City..."

What appeared in Su Xia's vision was a city under a dome.

After the mountainside was hollowed out, the huge hemispherical dome supported this small world.

The city below the dome is not big, and the buildings are of different heights. Most of them are six-story buildings. Only a few ten-story buildings in the city center. All the buildings are dusty and retain the original color of the cement walls.

It was also night in this gray little world.

On the dome, there are thousands of rough display screens. These display screens are combined, some are dim, and some are shimmering, forming a simple but beautiful starry sky.

In the city, the street lamps emitted a soft white light, the windows of most buildings were darkened, and many Dragon City residents had already fallen asleep.

"It's not as messy as I imagined." Su Xia's eyes swept across a large area, "But this is only a part of the surface, let's take a look..."

Su Xia's first impression of this city was that it was quiet.

It was so quiet, all the vehicles were neatly parked on both sides of the road.

Without those loud horns and engine sounds, the whole world is more than half quiet.

Su Xia recalled her life in the countryside when she was a child, and the nights were so quiet at that time, but when she came to the city, she never enjoyed this kind of tranquility again.

He took a closer look, and there were many similar tunnels around the edge of the city.

Some of the tunnels should lead to another mountainside.

After all, this is just the belly of a mountain.

According to Zhang Fang, the entire Dragon City is connected by small worlds in the belly of sixteen mountains, which can be regarded as a big city composed of sixteen small cities.

The headquarters of Dragon City is a large square building, which includes offices of various departments, seminar rooms, conference halls and so on.

In this small city on the mountainside, Su Xia didn't see that big building.

"According to the map given by Zhang Fang, I should be in the mountainside numbered '7' right now, and Dragon City's headquarters is numbered '9'..."

Following the directions on the map, Su Xia walked towards the hillside where the headquarters is located.

He knew that the current Dragon City was definitely not as beautiful as it looked.

After all, the city lord was seriously injured.

In a special period, the physical condition of the leader involves many people's minds.

If the city lord hadn't been seriously injured, there wouldn't be so many people panicking and sending their relatives out of Dragon City.

At this time, the system suddenly popped up a task prompt.

[Mission: Dragon City Split]

[Mission Phase [-]: Before Dawn]

[Mission description: In Conch City, you once received a "Dragon City Hero Medal". The recipient of this medal is Dragon City battle hero Wang Xinglie. Please find Wang Xinglie's descendants as soon as possible, and learn from them the reason for selling the medal. 】

[Requirements of the current task stage: ensure that Wang Xinglie's descendants are safe and sound]

【…】

[After completing all stages of this task, you will get a treasure map]

[Through this treasure map, you will reach a mysterious area, find the wreckage of the alien spaceship in this area, and obtain a complete "interstellar survey ship" from the wreckage, so that you have the ability to leave this planet]

On Su Xia's task bar, a task that had been dim for a long time suddenly lit up.

At the same time, in the storage space, the golden medal was also shimmering, as if hinting something.

"It's actually this mission..."

Su Xia took out the hero medal from the storage space, stared at the medal, and thought for a moment.

The hero's descendants are down to the point of selling medals, which is also one of Dragon City's problems.

The beauty of the surface is only the surface after all.

Dig deep down to unearth the rotting stuff.

He clicked on the mission details, and in the details, he saw the location of the mission target.

"In the small city numbered '8', I happen to be going there."

Su Xia put the medal in her pocket, took a step, and walked to a tunnel in the distance.

The city was very quiet, he was the only one on the street, not even patrolling soldiers.

This made Su Xia feel like walking in an empty city.

To avoid trouble, he still turned on the stealth function.

It stands to reason that it is not yet twelve o'clock in the evening, no matter how you say it, there should be a few people on the street, and there shouldn't be no one.

"Is there a curfew?"

Su Xia thought of this.

In an extraordinary period, the city lord was attacked and seriously injured, and a curfew was also normal.

Not long after, he walked to the entrance of another tunnel. Looking inside, there were dim light strips on both sides of the tunnel, and he couldn't see the end.

He walked into the tunnel and walked for about 10 minutes before reaching the exit.

Outside the exit is a small city numbered "8".

This long tunnel is just one of the connecting passages between the two cities.

"City No. [-] is about the same as City No. [-]..."

Su Xia looked up, and there was still a star-studded dome. Under the dome, there were cement buildings of different heights, and the surfaces of the buildings were dusty.

According to the mission instructions, Wang Xinglie's descendants are in a building on the edge of the city.

Su Xia walked out of the tunnel and walked towards the target location.

Soon, he approached the building.

The building has six floors, and its style is similar to that of the residential buildings outside. There are a few street lights on the side of the road outside the building. Most of the residents upstairs have turned off the lights, and only a few windows are still on.

The descendants of Wang Xinglie live in room 102 of this building.

Su Xia wears life perception glasses, and through the wall, she can see two dark red figures in the room.

He released another group of nano-robots, sneaked in through the crack of the door, and confirmed the identities of the two people in the room.

A young girl and a middle-aged woman are Wang Xinglie's daughter and wife respectively.

"Cough cough..."

The middle-aged woman seemed to be in poor health, with a sallow complexion and a thin body, lying on the worn-out bed, coughing occasionally.

Beside the bed, there are many medicine boxes and a large number of remaining medicine tubes.

Seeing this scene, Su Xia understood the reason why they sold the medals.

sick.

No matter in which era, a serious illness can drain the savings of an ordinary family.

He approached the door and knocked lightly.

"Dong dong dong."

His knuckles collided with the wooden door, making a dull sound.

There were puzzled expressions on the faces of the two people in the room, probably wondering why someone knocked on the door so late.

The girl wanted to open the door, but the middle-aged woman grabbed her, shook her head slightly, then got up from the bed with difficulty, and staggered to the door.

"Crack-"

The lock turned, and the door opened a crack.

There is also a metal chain on the door and the wall to prevent criminals from rushing in directly.

Through the gap, the middle-aged woman glanced at Su Xia cautiously, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

"Yes, someone asked me to treat you."

Saying that, Su Xia took out a medicine box from behind her like a magic trick, and showed a pharmacist's identification card.

The middle-aged woman was startled: "This...our family..."

"You don't need to pay, someone has already paid for you." Su Xia knew her difficulty and said first.

"Have you paid?" The middle-aged woman was puzzled, but she didn't ask any further questions. Instead, she opened the metal chain on the door, opened the door, and invited Su Xia in.

The woman's name is Liang Qian.

On the shoe rack at the entrance, there is a wedding photo of her and Wang Xinglie when they were young.

Their daughter is Wang Mengqi, about fifteen or sixteen years old, not tall, thin and small, and is diligently preparing tea for Su Xia.

"Mr. Doctor, please drink tea." She wiped the water stains on her hands, and brought the tea to Su Xia.

"it is good."

Su Xia nodded slightly and took the tea.

He put the tea aside, sat on a chair, and began to carefully observe the condition of the woman Liang Qian.

After a while, he said softly, "Lung cancer?"

"Yes……"

Liang Qian answered with difficulty, she was thin and haggard.

In the trash can on the side, you can see bloody paper balls, which were all coughed up by her.

It's already late, if it's on the other side of the earth, it's basically time to start arranging funeral arrangements.

"You are the family members of the hero, why is there no free medical treatment?" Su Xia opened the small medicine box and asked while taking out the medicine.

"Yes, it's just..."

Liang Qian opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, seemed to have some difficulty, looked at Su Xia, and asked carefully: "Mr. Doctor, are you not a resident of Dragon City?"

"Well, I just came here today." Su Xia didn't hide anything, "Continue to talk about the medical treatment in Longcheng, your body is in this condition, you should go to the hospital to lie down, why are you still at home? Didn't the hospital provide free treatment?"

"This……"

Liang Qian hesitated for a moment, and then began to explain the current situation.

Family members of heroes like them do have many benefits, such as free medical care, housing, education, etc. If they can be implemented, they will definitely be able to live a good life.

But the problem is that in Dragon City, many people are family members of heroes.

As long as they are the family members of soldiers who have won the Medal of Combat, Medal of Courage, Medal of Heroes, etc., they can be regarded as family members of heroes.

The more people there are, the less resources there will be.

The medical resources in Dragon City are particularly tight, and there are simply not enough beds in the hospital.

To make an appointment for a simple lung examination, you need to wait in line for more than half a year.

Free is really good, but when resources are scarce, its benefits cannot be reflected, so that many people have to spend a lot of money to find private institutions for medical treatment.

The resources of those private organizations are all smuggled in through various channels, and the price is particularly expensive.

"So it is."

Su Xia thought about it and understood the problem.

In the final analysis, it is still a question of resources.

Only when there are enough resources can free be truly implemented and benefit the residents of Dragon City.

But, when Su Xia saw Liang Qian's hesitant expression, she suddenly thought of several other questions.

Since private organizations can obtain a lot of resources through various channels, why can't Dragon City officials?
Who controls those private institutions behind the scenes?

Through what channel did they smuggle in?
"I understand." Su Xia nodded slightly to Liang Qian. He was thinking about it just now, but now he thought of the key point.

Dragon City's so-called free is to throw out a little bit of resources for free for everyone to grab, and most of the resources are sold at high prices by so-called private institutions.

If you can't grab it, or if you can't wait for such a long queue time, you have to go to a private institution.

Without the acquiescence of the high-level, this kind of thing cannot exist for a long time.

In this way, he gained face on the surface and made money secretly, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Through communication, Su Xia learned that this situation is not limited to medical aspects.

The so-called free education is also a big pit.

The free ones teach poorly. If you want your children to learn something, you can only spend a lot of money to hire tutors from private institutions.

"A group of dogs, they treat the family of heroes like this?" Su Xia frowned. The inside of Dragon City turned out to be like this, does the city lord know?
Not knowing what kind of psychology it was, Su Xia hoped that he didn't know.

His mood was inexplicably complicated, so he didn't ask any more questions, picked up the potion he had just taken out, and began to formulate a treatment plan for Liang Qian.

"Three bottles of this blue potion a day, one in the morning, one in the middle of the night, one in the evening, it doesn't matter before or after meals." Su Xia placed boxes of potions in front of Liang Qian, writing while talking.

"These white pills can temporarily relieve your pain, but you can't take more than one pill a day, otherwise there is a risk of addiction..."

"This dark red potion replenishes qi and blood. It doesn't need to be injected. You can take it orally. It's three pills a day..."

Su Xia's small medicine box is like a treasure chest, more and more things are taken out of it, and gradually they are piled up on the table to form a hill.

Seeing this weird scene, the mother and daughter were a little surprised.

How can such a small box take out so many things?

Soon, Su Xia took out the last medicine.

"This box of medicine is not for you, it's for your daughter." Su Xia pointed to the thin Wang Mengqi beside her.

"Me?" The little girl was taken aback for a moment, she was not sick, so she shouldn't need to take medicine.

"Your physique is poor and you are malnourished. This box of medicine can enhance your physique." Su Xia said.

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Doctor." Wang Mengqi hurriedly thanked him.

"No thanks, this is what you deserve."

With that said, Su Xia reached into her pocket, took out the hero medal, and placed it gently in front of the mother and daughter.

On the desktop, the medal shone with dazzling gold, like the rising sun at dawn.

"Take this honor and don't sell it again."
