7, Chapter Seven(1/2)

Aman was watching a movie in a dark stone room. It was a movie projector that Opal gave him last time. He bought it from a businessman and three holographic movie chips from 50 to 60 years ago. He watched it repeatedly in that small space.

.

Many miners are illiterate and can only be entertained through images. In fact, in modern times where information is highly developed, everything can be conveyed through images and sounds, and learning words is secondary. However, the amount of information conveyed by images and sounds is not the same.

Words are not as fast as words, and holographic images often take several minutes to interpret a simple scene that can be explained in one sentence.

There is a holographic projection device placed in the corner of the stone room, and the hero and heroine on it are embracing each other.

"Oh, Andalus..." A vague voice came from the egg-shaped projector.

Aman watched quietly and kept his voice very low. Three girls were chatting in another corner of the cellar, and Anya was among them.

Opal went up and turned off the projector. Aman came to his senses and said, "Are you back? Opal?"

"Opal!" Anya's eyes lit up, and the girls whispered, with surprise in their voices.

"Anya." Opal bowed slightly and greeted her. His eyes were clear and his skin was a healthy wheat color. He was completely different from before. Anya smiled and said, "Why are you back?"

"Come back to see you." Opal whispered: "Aman, I have a plan for the future of all of us."

Aman said: "Anya, bring some food over here."

Anya went out to get food, and her female companion smiled and said: "Opal, when do you plan to marry Anya?"

Opal's face turned a little unnaturally red, she smiled awkwardly and said, "I..."

Aman did not talk much about this topic and said: "What are the plans?"

Locke said: "What on earth did you experience out there? Did you kill a sand bat?"

Aman was instantly moved and asked: "How did you kill the sand bat?"

Opal sat on the wooden bench, touching his fingers with his hands, thought for a while, and said, "What the teacher taught me, do you remember, Locke, you saw me picking up a person in the desert."

Opal selectively told Aman what happened in these days, retaining many of his abilities, such as the power of faith and Lecter's identity, and finally revealed all of his plans.

Both Locke and Aman seemed to have been greatly shocked.

"Is the outside world really like this?" Locke's voice trembled.

Opal nodded and said: "What I saw in his chip is that many planets are better than b11."

Aman whispered: "I know this too, so I always wanted to send Anya out. She shouldn't suffer with us here, but Opal, have you ever thought about it? We can only mine, and we can't do anything else.

How do you support yourself on the Crimson Star? You have to come back in the end."

"That's because we haven't received any education!" Opal whispered angrily: "Our parents were slaves, so we are slaves too! This is not allowed in the interstellar human rights law. Everyone should have the opportunity to choose.

.If this plan succeeds, I believe we can obtain the status of citizens of the Red Flame Galaxy and start over. Come on, let us fight and fight together."

"You are different." Aman said angrily: "You are already someone who can kill sand bats with your bare hands. What about us? We will be beaten to death by the foreman! Hicks only needs to give him a casual blow on the back of the head, and then kill him

He was dragged into the mine and told that he died due to a landslide, but there was nothing anyone could do."

Opal said: "You don't need to confront him head-on. I will do all these things. The stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility. I know this very well. You just need to do me a favor. I need evidence. About

The mining accident, as well as the purchase details of every trade fair on this planet."

Aman said: "I know that the businessmen who deal with us have to pay a large proportion of the share to Black Rock Mining. One person leaked it last time."

Opal said: "You already knew, why didn't you tell us?"

Aman shook his head, and Opal said: "Someone has to rise up and resist, Aman."

Locke said: "I'm going! What do you need me to do? I don't want to stay in this hellish place anymore."

"Thank you, brother." Opal patted Locke on the shoulder, and Locke said: "Aman, what are you waiting for? Join us."

Aman was thinking, Opal narrowed his eyes and actually felt his thoughts. Aman was afraid that the matter would be exposed and Anya would be in danger.

"What are you talking about?" Anya came over with bread and water and asked, "Brother?"

Opal took the water and said, "Thank you, Anya."

He stared at Aman, but he thought of something else: thought telepathy? Can you gain this ability after opening up your own spiritual world? Lecter never mentioned it to him.

She stared at them uneasily for a moment, turned away, and whispered to her female companions: "Let's go outside."

After the wooden door closed, Opal said: "If you are worried about Anya, I will find a way to send her away first."

Aman said: "Can you?"

Opal hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and Aman said: "Give me a definite answer."

Opal said: "Yes, I will definitely do it."

Aman said: "I know there is a video, which is a security video that monitors our operations every day. It is in Hicks' office."

Locke asked: "Steal it out?"

Opal said: "Great! Where are the transaction documents from the trade fair?"

Aman said: "I don't know, but there must be records. There is a complete security system in the data room, which is not easy to enter. Besides, except for the documents printed to us, other data are stored in the central control room. How to retrieve it?"

come out?"

Opal stood up and said, "Steal the chip out and go now."

Locke said: "But what if they find that the chip is gone when they come back?"

Opal said: "Make another copy. I have a message transcriber. You can draw me a map."

Aman said: "I will lead the way. I found Hicks last time. The CNC center is a long way from here. It is too cold. You must prepare materials to keep out the cold."

The three of them immediately started making preparations. Until this moment, Locke was still in a dream, muttering: "Can we really leave here? What if we can't do it and we all die?"

Opal said: "With my life, you can all live."

Aman nodded and said: "Either live together or die together."

"What on earth are you going to do?" Anya asked nervously.

The three of them put on warm clothes, and Aman said: "Prepare some food, we will be back soon, don't ask any more questions, Anya."

Opal carried the energy furnace and walked up to the Aman family's house. The door outside had been frozen. The moment he opened it with the power of faith, white snow poured in, and the strong wind overwhelmed them in an instant.

After the coldest day of winter, the pale sun began to slowly rise and fall on the horizon. Each rise and fall was a day later. It no longer snowed on Planet B11, and it gradually became warmer. They walked on the snowfield against the cold wind.

There is still a long way to go.

They walked for three days and three nights and entered another mining village. Tens of thousands of people lived here. It was the largest gathering place of miners on Planet B-11. The mineral sites they occupied were also richer. A man was bending over

The man who had buried something straightened up and said from a distance: "Who is that person?"

His expression was numb and wary, looking at Aman and others.

Opal said: "Passing by, the weather is very nice. Come out for a walk. What are you doing?"

Aman went over with a lantern and saw a small pit in the snow. Inside was a naked child who was black and blue from the cold.

"Bury my little son." The man was blind in one eye and stared at them with his left eye.

"At least give him something to wear," Locke said.

"The cloth is too expensive." The man said, "The winter is too cold and the children cannot survive. My wife is dying too."

The man introduced himself, his name was Ugo Milede, Opal exchanged names with others, Ugo said: "Come in and warm yourself by the fire. Have you brought any medicine? I can give you some rhodolite in exchange, although it's not much.

.”

Opal said: "We don't have any drugs on us."

Ugo brought them into the house. His wife was lying on the bed, coughing, her face red, and her chest rising and falling like a bellows.

Aman said: "Why don't you carry her into the cellar?"

"Heart and lung fever cough." Opal said, "It's easy to get infected. There shouldn't be such a disease here. How did you get it?"

Ugo nodded and said: "We don't have anti-inflammatory and sterilizing potions. I bought her a pair of shoes at the sales meeting before winter. After wearing them, her toes were bruised and blistered, and they were infected by bacteria. This is what happened.

.”

Opal took off the blanket covering Ugo's wife's feet and took a look. Her feet were swollen like buckets.

Ugo looked at them with his good eye and said: "Then she can only die. I hurt her."

He held her hand, his expression numb and indifferent, but his left eye had a little warmth.

"Do you know where the warehouse is?" Opal said.

Ugo said: "You want to steal something?"

Opal said: "I'll go look for it for you... I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee it."

Aman said: "Opal."

Opal waved her hand to signal them to stop talking. If Ugo knew the location of the warehouse, there might be more things worth bringing out. There might also be an energy battery, which was very important to Lecter.

Ugo said: "I will take you there. There is a director on duty in the data room."

The three of them were all shocked, but Opal thought of a better way.

Opal said: "If you follow us, you have to do something first."
