Chapter 145(1/2)
"Miss Nan, where are we going now?"
Xu Shen asked: "Are we looking for a place for you to live, or are you?"
"Can you go to the city-state guard station to report first?" Nan Ning said quickly: "I came a little late, and now I will probably miss the reporting time..."
As he spoke, his face was a little shy.
Even if you are late, no one will make things difficult for you... Xu Shen nodded and said: "Then let's go to the city-state guardianship first. Which district are you going to?"
"Headquarters." Nan Ning said.
"Um……"
Xu Shen immediately searched the map of Termite City in his mind, quickly found the location of the city-state guardianship, and drove there immediately.
At this time, Xu Shen saw the rearview mirror of the vehicle reflecting the tuxedoed butler who had followed the girl before, as well as Maeve, who was standing next to him and was only as tall as her shoulders.
At this moment, as the vehicle started, the young and old people also followed the vehicle and came quickly.
The difference is that Maeve's body seems to be floating in mid-air, and there seems to be some kind of pulling force between the vehicle and the vehicle. The vehicle drives her body forward, while she just sits elegantly behind the vehicle.
But the old man in the tuxedo had an angry look on his face and spread out his legs to run quickly.
...Could this be the Butler Hong you were talking about?
Xu Shen glanced at the girl next to him. The latter looked completely unaware and was looking at the street scene on both sides of the roadside through the car window with a curious look on her face.
"Your place looks very clean!" The girl's voice revealed a hint of excitement, like a bird released from a cage, chirping happily.
"well enough."
This is all a face-saving project, who made this a place to receive people from your inner city... Xu Shen kept smiling.
"Red Maple Chamber of Commerce? Isn't this the Chamber of Commerce in our inner city? There is actually one here!"
"Luo's Jewelry Store, I've been to this one too."
Nan stared at the shops on both sides of the roadside and looked a little excited when he saw many familiar names.
Are they all extended from the inner city... Xu Shen's eyes flickered slightly. It seems that many businesses in the bottom city have the shadow of the inner city. No wonder some rich people look at their ruin-killing personnel with contempt in their eyes. Maybe those rich people are included.
They have lived in the city, or they are elites sent by companies in the inner city.
When such people come to the undercity, they naturally have a natural sense of superiority.
As the vehicle drove out of the area several kilometers near Mona Hotel, Nan Ning saw fewer and fewer familiar brands, and the surrounding roads gradually became damaged, potholes, and there were also garbage discarded by unknown people on the roadside.
Haven't had time to clean yet.
As the vehicles continued to drive out, the surrounding road section was obviously inferior to that near the Mona Hotel, and some old buildings with a slightly dated feel could be seen around it.
Nan Ning's voice gradually became less and less. She just kept her eyes open and looked carefully.
Not long after, the vehicle arrived at the city-state guardhouse.
The neighborhood here obviously looks much cleaner. The building of the guardian headquarters is extremely majestic and magnificent, like an ancient castle. There are huge white stone pillars at the entrance and layers of steps, showing its strictness.
The guards on both sides stood with their gazes like rocks, giving people a sense of strict law.
The vehicle stopped and Xu Shen taught Nan Ning to open the door.
Nan Ning also had no airs. After learning it, she fired it twice with great interest, acting like a child.
When the car door was locked, Nan Ning raised her head and looked at the city-state guardianship in front of her, with hope and light in her eyes: "They say the city is in chaos. My teacher once said that the law should be universal to everyone and benefit everyone.
The law is neither a weapon for the rich nor a yoke for the poor."
Xu Shen was slightly startled, nodded and said, "What your teacher said is right."
Hearing her teacher being praised, Nan Ning smiled and said, "My teacher is the number one person in the legal world in the inner city. He once participated in the compilation of the 82nd edition of the inner city code."
"Awesome!" Xu Shen praised sincerely, feeling even more powerful about Miss Nan's background.
"Is Miss Nan coming here for an internship? There should be a city-state guardianship in the inner city, right?" Xu Shen asked curiously.
"My goal is to make the law benefit everyone." Nan Ning's eyes flickered, showing a very serious look, and she clenched her fingers slightly: "Even the bottom city should enjoy this right!"
Why use even though... Xu Shen didn't hate the girl in front of him. He couldn't see any scheming in her, but it was the clean feeling that made him intimidated.
Perhaps because of this, he had a deeper understanding of how the inner city viewed the bottom city.
"This is your ideal, right?" Xu Shen said.
"Um."
Nan Ning's eyes shifted from the sculpture holding the code in front of the city-state guardianship, and fell on Xu Shen, with a slightly blushing expression, and said: "Maybe this goal is difficult to achieve, but I will work hard!"
Xu Shen nodded slightly, but he still knew that it was difficult, which showed that he was not naive enough to be an idiot.
"Let's go."
Nan Ning said with a smile. When she came here, she seemed to have entered the home court. She took the lead in walking up the steps and said as she walked: "Do you know who this statue is?"
"I don't know." Xu Shen followed and answered with his head lowered.
On the way up the stairs, my waist can't help but bend.
"He is my idol, the first-generation Human Emperor!" Nan Ning's eyes flashed as she said, "The man who wrote the first-generation code thousands of years ago is one of the greatest leaders of the human race!"
"The first generation human emperor..." Xu Shen glanced at the statue, holding a code in his hand, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, but there was a touch of majesty between his brows.
Nan Ning smiled, then thought of something, and asked as she walked: "By the way, you are familiar with Dicheng. Do you know what is the most difficult thing for people here to ask for help from the law?"
She looked curious and wanted to know.
Xu Shen raised his head and glanced at her, then thought for a while and said, "Maybe we should take this flight of steps."
Nan Ning was slightly startled and looked at her feet.
She suddenly stood still.
The steps are very high, with hundreds of floors.
Although it is not connected in one go, there are three or four sections of relatively spacious transitional platforms in the center of the steps, where you can take a slow rest every dozen or so steps.
The steps extend from the side of the street, and at the end in front is the towering city-state guardianship. It stands tall and stands where everyone looks up, highlighting the majesty of a temple.
Nan Ning raised her head slightly, looked at the tall sculpture of the Emperor on the steps, and murmured to herself: "There shouldn't be so many steps to the law."
"It's okay. I'm strong and strong. It's easy to crawl." Xu Shen smiled.
Nan Ning felt that Xu Shen's smile was a little dazzling in the sunlight. She was silent for a moment, turned around and continued walking upward, but the smile on her face was not as much as before.
Soon, the two came to the steps.
The two of them looked back together. Nan Ning was looking at the steps under her feet, while Xu Shen was looking at the two figures, an old man and a young man, on the steps.
Soon, Nan Ning withdrew her gaze, took out the documents from her backpack, glanced at the majestic hall, and walked straight in.
Xu Shen immediately followed behind him.
Inside the main hall is a magnificent hall, very bright, solemn but not extravagant. On a huge high wall, there is a densely packed code model that looks like an open book. It is seven or eight meters high, and the pages extend about 12 meters. It is very
Spectacular.
Under the code is the counter window in the hall, where are the office staff waiting to handle the matter.
Xu Shen took a cursory glance and found that it was quite quiet and deserted here. There were only three people asking about something in front of different windows. They were all dressed in clean and elegant clothes. Even the suits could be seen to be high-end goods with excellent quality.
, very flattering.
Xu Shen has been in and out of the city for a long time, and his eyesight has gradually improved. Although he can't see any brand, he can distinguish good from bad.
Nan Ning looked around, found the office staff, and said: "Hello, I am the law officer here to take office. This is my document."
She opened her backpack and found a document inside, but she took out another document from the compartment inside.
Xu Shen saw it from the side and was a little confused. It seemed that they were almost the same.
"A new lawyer?" When the office staff heard Nan Ning's words, the indifferent attitude on her face suddenly changed, and she quickly took it with both hands. When she saw the cover on the surface of the document, she knew it was right, and she continued: "Can you wait a moment?
Wait, oh no, you come with me."
Nan Ning followed immediately.
Xu Shen also followed calmly.
The office worker glanced at Xu Shen and asked, "Who is this?"
"My bodyguard." Nan Ning smiled.
Xu Shen nodded.
The eyes of the office staff changed slightly and became more respectful. The lawyer, who was able to carry bodyguards with him, was still so young. It was obvious that his family had a lot of background.
Soon, they were taken to a lounge to wait.
"Right."
When there was no one around, Nan Ning suddenly approached Xu Shen and whispered: "Mr. Xu, don't call me Miss Nan anymore. Now I'm going to change my name. Just call me Bai Yue."
Bai Yue? Xu Shen was stunned and said in confusion: "This is..."
Nan Ning looked around again, and lowered her voice like a thief: "I have to rely on my own ability to experience the most real face of the city, so that I can know where the disease is! I don't want my family to treat me in advance, so I secretly do it myself
