Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 12 He, the fancy food is on my tab!
"Go ahead, I'll pick you up later." Erica winked at Bai Yuetian.

Bai Yuetian smiled and said, "Thank you."

He turned around and followed the lighthouse inspectors into the elevator.

"He has a really nice smile," Erica said, watching Bai Yuetian's retreating figure. "And he gives me a very comfortable feeling."

The image of Bai Yuetian's upturned lips kept replaying in her mind.

“He’s very approachable, and judging from the way he walks, he must have received professional combat training,” Mark said slowly.

"Penny struck gold?" Ran Bing asked with a curious expression.

Being handsome is already rare, being good at socializing is even rarer, and being proficient in combat is even rarer than the two above. But it seems that all three of these qualities are combined in Bai Yuetian!
Ran Bing glanced at Mark.

He has a very masculine appearance and is incredibly strong in combat, but he's terrible at socializing; he's practically a blockhead!
Mark felt Ran Bing's gaze.

We were just talking about Bai Yuetian, why are you looking at me?
He was a little confused.

"I hope he's from a wealthy family." Penny looked at the departing Bai Yuntian with a worried expression.

"Even if he is very powerful in the old world, he may still be judged as a Dustman by the Lighthouse."

Everyone was silent.

After a brief conversation in the car, although they didn't know Bai Yuetian well, they all developed a good impression of the sunny and cheerful Bai Yuetian.

In the Lighthouse, the Dust People are like expendable commodities; they don't even qualify for medical treatment, and they are replaced as soon as they break.

They would all feel very sorry if Bai Yuetian were judged to be a mortal.

Ran Bing sensed the heavy atmosphere.

She chuckled softly: "At least the common people don't have to face the Devouring Beasts, so their lives aren't in danger."

“Even if he’s a commoner, I’ll still consider him a friend!” Erica said, her eyes resolute.

At this moment, Mark waved his hand and said, "The results of the genetic testing haven't come back yet, so don't curse him."

Meanwhile, Bai Yuetian had already boarded the lighthouse with the first batch of supplies.

The alloy road surface was spotless, and people in all sorts of clothes hurried by. Some even clung to the edge of the road, gazing down at the hunter convoy below.

"Captain Mark is back!"

"I heard he brought back a lot of supplies this time, and there were no casualties!"

"Captain Mark is amazing!"

Bai Yuetian curiously looked around at her surroundings.

Is this Tartarus?

He had seen Tartarus in the news and in internal documents of the Federal Police Department, but knew nothing about its internal structure.

Tartarus is the most mysterious prison.

Even obtaining supplies involved Tartarus informing the Coastal Alliance what he needed, and then the Coastal Alliance delivering the supplies to the designated location at the specified time.

The black box prison in Hikugawa and the white box prison directly controlled by the Coastal Alliance are both more mysterious.

"Don't look around."

The person in charge of genetic testing said, "If you are an upper-class citizen, you'll have plenty of time to see later."

"If you are a dust person."

"hehe!"

Bai Yuetian pursed her lips.

He sensed a similar hostility from this person as he did from Donnie, but this person's hostility was more emotional.

"Come with us." These people led Bai Yuetian to a room.

They drew half a tube of Bai Yuetian's blood, and then had Bai Yuetian stay with the hunters for two days while they waited for the results of the genetic test.

Bai Yuetian left the room alone.

Looking at the flow of people at the entrance, he felt somewhat lost.

Staying with the hunters for a couple of days is no problem, but where are the hunters?

"White Moon Sky!"

Shouts came from around the corner, followed by a clump of orange hair.

"Erica!" Bai Yuetian was pleasantly surprised.

As he approached Erica, he noticed a pistol tucked into her waistband. Clearly, this girl had come to find him as soon as she arrived at the lighthouse, without even unloading her equipment.

Gollum-

Bai Yuetian's stomach made a strange noise.

"Haha, your stomach is growling so loudly!" Erica laughed, her eyes crinkling into two arcs.

Bai Yuetian blushed.

"Speaking of which, the technology of your old world is really amazing, it can make people go decades without eating or drinking!"

“Come with me, I’ll treat you to a big meal, and you can tell me some stories from the old world.” Erica turned around and led Bai Yuetian to the Hunter’s Squad’s restaurant.

"By the way, what did you do in the old world?" Erica asked curiously. "Captain Mark said you have signs of training."

Bai Yuetian answered frankly: "I am a police officer in Jiuchuan City. Sometimes when a tricky case occurs, the chief will ask me to lead the team to handle it, such as the smuggling of sensitive items."

“They’re a bit like the city garrison at the Lighthouse; they also crack down on smuggling.” Erica said thoughtfully.

Bai Yuetian smiled but didn't say anything.

The two came to the restaurant.

Bai Yuetian followed behind Erica.

Erica wore a hair tie with two small green pom-poms on it, which bounced gently with her steps.

Bai Yuetian's gaze followed the two small balls as they jumped.

"he!"

Erica pulled Bai Yuetian to her side, pointed at him, and said to the people inside the window, "Fine food, on my tab!"

The person inside the window smiled: "These must be the survivors you found on the surface. I heard they're from the old world?"

"I suppose so," Bai Yuetian said sincerely.

"Luckily, I ran into Erica and the others. I especially want to thank Penny and Donnie for getting me out of the hibernation pod, otherwise I would be suffocating by now, which is a very painful way to die!"

Penny and Donnie were sitting not far away.

Upon hearing Bai Yuetian's words, Penny looked up and smiled at him.

Donnie scoffed, "You'd better be an upper-class citizen, otherwise you might as well die down here to save food."

Penny gritted her teeth: "Donnie—"

Bai Yuetian didn't care about Donnie's words, because Donnie and Penny's kindness in saving his life was real, so let them be stubborn.

At that moment, the person inside the window brought out two servings of food.

Bread, milk, half a sausage, a few leafy greens, a boiled egg, and a small box of brown dipping sauce.

Bai Yuetian was stunned for a moment.

Fine dining?

He simply couldn't connect what was in front of him with those four words.

In Hisakawa City, you can find better food at any small shop than this dish.

In an instant, a strong sense of regret welled up in Bai Yuetian's heart.

I should have known better than to wait for my dad. I cooked a whole table of delicious food, and he came over without eating a single bite.

"By the way, you're from the old world, isn't this too basic for you?"

Erica noticed Bai Yuetian's expression and took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket.

"This one's for you too!"

Bai Yuetian came to her senses.

He took the plate with both hands, smiled and said, "I'm already very satisfied. When I have more donation points, I'll definitely treat you to a meal!"

"It's a deal!" Erica stuffed the chocolate into Bai Yuetian's pocket.

Bai Yuetian paused for a moment, then said softly, "Thank you."

He was holding the plate, hoping Erica would take the chocolate back, but to his surprise, Erica simply stuffed the chocolate into his pocket.

What a warm and enthusiastic girl.
