Chapter 010 S 3 Southern Continent Star

The starship XY201 traversed the vast and brilliant starry sky of the Western District, and after its final trajectory curve, it finally entered the most prosperous central star zone of the Starry Empire, racing towards the southernmost S3 Southern Continent among the five super planets

Ah, is my dream really going to end on this starship filled with hope?" Fang Shi sighed softly and began an intense physical training regimen. Only by pushing his limits could he temporarily forget the trivial worries, forget the dire situation, and forget the anxious feelings... In his mind, there was only the goddess bathed in starlight—Su Shier

At dusk, Fang Shi was taken to the designated detention center, where a simple inquiry record was made, and his luggage along with some specified items was handed over. He was then escorted by two staff members through several metal doors, finally being placed in a small detention room of a few square meters.

Watching Fang Shi's departing figure, Yu Zhengyang was momentarily taken aback, a strange smile curling at the corners of his mouth, resembling anger, a cold sneer, or perhaps admiration

Xi Chenglong still maintained his incongruous smile and replied, "Miss, may you be well"

S 3 Nanzhou Star, one of the five super planets in the Central Star Zone of www.hetushu.com, together with the other four super planets, forms the political and economic center of the Xingluo Empire, dominating the vast and boundless starry river of the Xingluo Empire

The middle-aged man paid no attention to Fang Shi, instead fixating intently on the light screen on the wall, seemingly captivated by it. The light screen displayed a documentary from the Starry Empire's battlefield, recounting stories from the front lines far at the edge of the Eastern District, though the so-called documentary was not without the embellishments of the imperial military.

Fang Shiling was taken aback, looking at Xi Chenglong's attire, and immediately thought of the three men in sunglasses whom he had beaten up. He took a deep breath and slowly said: "Xiao Shi, are you alright?"

Having finished speaking, Fang Shi then walked towards the special passage

Fang Shi simply organized his thoughts and then sat on the bed, focusing intently on reading. The war between the Xingluo Empire and the Galactic Alliance has lasted for nearly a thousand years, but it has mostly remained at the level of minor skirmishes. In history, large-scale wars have only occurred twice, with the most recent one occurring over a hundred years ago, known as the "Tide of the Galaxy." During that war, nearly half of the entire Eastern District of the Xingluo Empire was occupied by the Galactic Alliance, marking the greatest crisis for the Xingluo Empire in thousands of years. However, it indirectly spurred the rise of a new type of weapon, which is the mecha that Fang Shi is so passionate about.

Accompanied by two police officers behind him, he slowly walked towards a special passage designated for him. However, before entering the special passage, a man around fifty years old blocked his way. The man was dressed in a black suit, wearing sunglasses, with slightly graying temples; he was none other than Xi Chenglong, the elite bodyguard beside Su Mengchen.

Xi Chenglong had a dignified appearance, exuding an innate authority without anger, yet the faint smile on his face seemed quite incongruous. "I apologize for the trouble caused by the young lady's matter. This is a tulip membership card, a small token of compensation from the madam. I hope you will accept it."

Yu Zhengyang wore a stern expression as he carefully scrutinized the square stone before him. After staring for a good ten seconds, he slowly said: "Please check the items on the table to see if anything is missing. Furthermore, the hijacking incident was indeed a misunderstanding related to the book club, but you must remain in detention for ten days, as you assaulted two active-duty officers. Of course, according to the relevant laws of the Empire, you can apply for an administrative review, but the approval process may take some time, so it would be better for you to stay in detention for a few days."

The detention room is nearly 20 square meters, significantly larger than the small rooms in the Shishi residential area. In addition to a single bed, it also includes a washbasin and a toilet, which can be considered as adequately equipped.

Breathing the fresh air belonging to S 3, Fang Shi's mood seemed particularly pleasant, as if a dream had blossomed on his forehead. As for the ten days of detention, it was far better than he had anticipated, and naturally, he would not apply for any administrative reconsideration

Fang Shi slightly relaxed, took the exquisite black card from Xi Chenglong's hand, casually tossed it into his luggage, smiled faintly, and said: "May she realize her dreams soon"

Ye Yunshu was calculating the time, feeling extremely anxious about his situation. Firstly, regarding the kidnapping incident, based on the interrogations and torture from the past few days, the other party seemed to have concluded that he was indeed the kidnapper. What puzzled him was that after the torture, they no longer paid him any attention, making him feel like a small cat abandoned in a corner, ignored by everyone. Secondly, concerning the torturer, if something were to happen to him, even if he was not the kidnapper, he would likely still face dire consequences. This was something he regretted, as he had acted rather impulsively at that time, feeling like a small cat abandoned in a corner, ignored by everyone.

Four days later, XY201 finally arrived at the destination of this flight

It is the eleventh day; the spacecraft should have already entered the central star zone

Outside the passage, there is a parking lot where a police car has been quietly waiting. After a few officers completed a brief handover, they loaded the square stone onto the vehicle and drove the police car towards Nanzhou City, which is over a hundred miles away

Fang Shi listened attentively while inspecting the detained luggage. After confirming everything was in order, he raised his head to meet Yu Zhengyang's gaze and said earnestly: "Thank you. Additionally, could you please convey my apologies to that interrogator? Also, he has a very handsome face."

The room contains two single beds, one of which is occupied by a middle-aged man, approximately forty years old, with a buzz cut. He has a scar on his cheek measuring several centimeters, and his arms are exposed, showcasing a strong muscular definition.

Life in the detention room is monotonous and dull. Aside from physical exercise and sleeping, Fang Shi has little else to occupy his time. However, the three meals a day are relatively humane; they are not bland hunger-satisfying bars, but rather normal and tasty dishes, with a balanced mix of meat and vegetables for nutrition. This does come as a slight surprise to Fang Shi. The only aspect he finds somewhat uncomfortable is the lack of bathing facilities, as he can only manage to wipe himself down with the water from the washbasin.

Numerous battle scenes have appeared on the screen, among which mechs are undoubtedly indispensable figures. In the air, on the ground, and underwater, their presence is almost ubiquitous, and their brilliance seems to outshine even that of the starry mothership.

Nanzhou City, the largest city on S 3, is one of the "Top Ten Super Cities" of the Xingluo Empire, covering an area of over 100,000 square kilometers and with a population of nearly 200 million, a super metropolis where prosperity coexists with technology

Under the escort of two police officers, Fang Shi finally emerged from Cell No. 3, walking slowly along the bright corridor until he reached the front of the public security officer, Zhang Yang. Looking at the man he had previously assaulted, Fang Shi's expression appeared remarkably calm.

After the self-interrogation, Fang Shi remained in Cell No. 3.
