Interlude Reality 01: Above the Moon Chapter 3 Waiting
"There's still some time before the start..."
Looking at the electronic watches everywhere in the hall, Li Lin recalled the scheduled time and found that there was a difference of about twenty minutes.
The practice of coming a while earlier than usual is obviously a thing of the past. If you come earlier than usual, you will just feel at a loss and bewildered. Especially when looking at this magnificent but empty hall, Li Lin felt as if his hands and feet were cold.
Because there were no instructions after arriving here, it seemed as if he could move freely here. However, looking at the carpet like a work of art under his feet, and the magnificent golden decorations around him that alluded to religion and human development history, and even the huge crystal chandelier above his head, Li Lin, who grew up in a middle-class family, felt like he couldn't move forward.
Shining and red, everywhere was filled with decorations that conveyed the feeling of "I'm not short of money" and "I only want the most expensive, not the right one." Li Lin even saw a Cupid-shaped fountain in the corner of the edge. Under the small pool were layers of golden and magnificent things that looked like gold coins. He didn't dare to think about how much manpower and material resources were spent to arrange such an orbital module. He just felt that his coming here might be a manifestation of AI going crazy again.
Indeed, he had seen scenes in the game that were far more extravagant than this, but that was a game, it was just a game. If he couldn't tell the difference between the game and reality, then sooner or later he would have to go back and squat for a while. But if he looked at them separately, just looking at these scenes that were luxurious enough in the eyes of ordinary people , Li Lin felt that he had come to the wrong place, and should turn around and go back to his room to continue playing games. Although he was an A-level authority and an excellent citizen, why did he come here? What kind of service can be bought for a thousand yuan?
Are you kidding me?
After looking at the magnificent but empty hall for a long time, Li Lin took a deep breath and stared at the convenient terminal in his hand with sweat all over his forehead.
"System...can you tell me why I am here..."
"'Because you requested to visit the First Colony on the Moon, Level A Clearance.'"
"No, I mean, why am I here? Here, in this cabin, why am I here?"
"'Because the Earth-Moon Orbital System does not have a commercial or civilian transport module specifically prepared for Class A users, the system automatically determines that the default downgrade is to B1 treatment. If Class A users have any dissatisfaction, they can report it to the system. We will make adjustments and communicate as quickly as possible so that Class A users can use it.'"
“…”
So what is this A-level authority all about?
Looking at the magnificent hall around him, Li Lin stood there for several minutes, sweating profusely.
After a long time, with the support and encouragement of the system AI, Li Lin slowly took a step and slowly walked around the cabin which looked completely different from his style.
After walking inside, he found that the cabin was actually much larger than he had imagined. Although there were some relatively small compartments in many places, looking at the brand new beds and sofas and the room tracks above, he knew that it was probably a relatively private lounge. It was used to supplement sleep, or to pretend to supplement sleep.
After all, although sleep is optional nowadays, in fact, at this level, people still pursue the behavior patterns and methods of natural people at the time, and call it a trend. This has been mentioned on the Internet, and Li Lin also saw the injections and brain-computer interfaces stored in the compartments, which are probably used for networking. Thinking carefully, it seems that the senior people are also very hard. Although they have removed the things related to sleep, they still have to force themselves to sleep in order to show elegance, which is also quite troublesome.
In an anonymous post I saw, it was said that the business world is changing so fast that it is impossible to sleep. But in order to look cool, some people have to set aside a part of the space for sleeping.
But Li Lin is more amazing. Others need to show off, but he is different. He really needs to sleep.
"This is the rest area... Okay, remember that."
After remembering this location, Li Lin walked around the cabin next door and searched the environment outside.
In addition to the huge and magnificent hall, another place that looks quite impressive is the kitchen restaurant, which is full of busy AI robots. Although there are no people inside, they still ensure an uninterrupted supply of food on the assembly line.
Dozens of food and beverages were neatly arranged around, and countless desserts were arranged . Steaks, pizzas, bacon and other things were still being made on site. There were also some local specialties and Chinese food in the distance. However, because Chinese food takes a long time to make, many places are still in the preparation stage. There was a nutritional mixture in the corner, but who would eat that stuff when there were these things in front of them?
Ordinary people cannot do those things unless they are elites who have removed their stomachs and related organs and replaced them with thinking modules and nutrient absorption modules.
"It should be a buffet... If you don't object, I'll take it as your consent."
After seeing that there was no one around, Li Lin looked at the AIs that were operating silently and took a disinfected and cleaned plate in front of him.
The fun of a buffet lies in the freedom of choosing what you want, so this place doesn’t have AI to tell you what to do.
Li Lin happily used a pair of tongs to pick up a bunch of sweets and put them on his plate. Anyway, there were no one here, and no one was watching him, so he ate whatever he liked. Who said that only a small number of people like to eat desserts? Boys also like to eat, but they just don't know how to say it.
Holding a large plate of dessert, he happily walked to a table against the wall. The double seat always gave people a sense of security. He almost forgot his original timidity. Under the temptation of nothing, Li Lin naturally ate and drank in this high-end restaurant. It was not until he heard the broadcast in the cabin begin to broadcast the climb notice that he was stunned and recalled where he was.
"'The AH-11 rail elevator you are riding in will start operating soon. Please pay attention to your own safety to avoid accidents...'"
Oh, it's taking off.
There won’t be so much food when we take off, right? But how am I supposed to eat…
Looking at the exquisite snacks and food on his plate, Li Lin curled his lips reluctantly and planned to stand up and take them back.
"'Please don't worry. Our shock absorption system and pressure reduction system are world-class. You can do everything you want on the rail ladder. Our company's commercial products have undergone strict quality inspections and there will be no problems.'"
"…Really? That's really thoughtful."
But who are you?
Looking at the figure gradually walking out of the shadows, Li Lin blinked slowly.
