Chapter 6 Is this also a gift?
"The continuous 'disaster' we Adjusters have been suffering from began when the Council took control of our Nova Colony satellite in CE38. They systematically and forcibly exploited, separated, and discriminated against the Adjuster people, denying our inalienable right to self-determination permitted by the international community. And now, they have also destroyed our sincere 'Moon Meeting' and even concluded that it was us who did it. We! As humans of the new era, we were ruthlessly slaughtered just because of the stupid fear of natural people. This! Is a continuation of the oppression of us Adjusters that has lasted for years."

The next day, the two people who had just returned home saw this news in the news.

Of course on the way back, many people on the street were also in a panic, some were angry, some were confused.

"Fortunately, Speaker Klein did not die. It's just hard to say whether it was an intentional act by the Atlantic Federation to throw mud. After this incident, the Atlantic Federation killed the peace advocates in various countries in the United Nations. The 'Earth Union' they led also replaced the 'United Nations.' I heard that several professors in several major design bureaus were assassinated, and even a bomb was detonated in the Clark Design Bureau."

As he spoke the poem, a trace of fear flashed before his eyes.

"It's okay. We should be able to eliminate the spies after this."

He Kui, who was just comforting Shihe, had a frown on his face. Recent espionage activities had become rampant. Now the spies of the Atlantic Federation might be around them. The spying and assassination of high-tech facilities and scientific researchers might increase. Even in the PLANT's strongholds of military importance, they might not be safe. After all, strongholds of military importance would definitely be the targets of the other side's main attacks.

Moreover, the security level of this dormitory is not high. Once the news of his rapid promotion becomes known, he may be targeted. He should prepare to move.

It's just that he doesn't have that much money yet, but if he becomes an assistant engineer, the housing subsidy and loan amount he can get will also increase.

"When I pass my B level, let's buy a house together, okay?"

"what?"

Because of He Kui's sudden words, Shihe blinked cutely.

"If there are two of us, we should be able to afford it."

He Kui said sincerely.

"Um"

If it is Class B, you can live in a safer and larger area. There are 500,000 people in the entire colonial satellite, and there may be only a few thousand Class B people, so naturally there will be some preferential treatment in terms of housing.

“It’s just that we don’t have much money right now.”

Shihe had already taken He Kui's feelings into consideration. They managed their own money, and she didn't spend much, so she had saved a considerable amount of money. And seeing how eager He Kui was to say hello before, she could guess that his savings were probably empty.

“I will try harder for this.”

He Kui smiled bitterly. This was indeed a problem. With his daily expenses exceeding his income, he might really go bankrupt if he took on another debt. Of course, if he reached level B, he would be able to tinker with something. At worst, he could just take on some side income. In short, safety was still very important.

"Don't force yourself."

Shihe patted He Kui's head gently, with her big cute eyes.

"Ah."

Just after the Moon Conference, also known as the "Copernicus Tragedy", it was visible to the naked eye, whether it was pedestrians on the street or colleagues around me.

Even the clear sky that was originally set by the system seemed to be covered with haze.

However, at this moment, He Kui, who had just walked out of the factory gate, bumped into a young girl head-on.

"sorry"

The petite girl covered her head and whispered an apology.

"It's fine."

He Kui took a step back and said in a proper manner.

"Ah, it's He Kui!"

The girl finally realized who the boy in front of her was.

“Yes, isn’t Miss Su off work?”

"No, I came to see you."

As she spoke, Su Lei took out the two Haro dogs in her hand.

"You made both of these, right?"

"Yes."

He Kui did not hide the fact that it did not take up working time.

“It’s done very well.”

The girl raised her head with a proud look.

"Thank you." "Well."

Looking at the hand the girl stretched out, He Kui looked at her in confusion.

"give me one."

"what?"

"Don't want to give it?"

"Neither"

Although he didn't know what the other party wanted such a little thing for, He Kui still rummaged through his backpack, took out one of the Harrows that he was going to sell later, and handed it to the girl.

[You gave Su Lei a gift, Information Engineering +10]

[Su Lei's Favorability 55]

[Experience bonus 0]

[Information Engineering D-level: (415/500)]

"what"

He Kui was shocked by the words in front of him which were slightly different from before.

Information engineering is not something rare in this future world, but it is definitely the most basic thing. Even kindergarten schools only teach micro-processing and information engineering. If you want to develop a machine independently, you must have profound attainments in both. There are only a few such people among the adjusters. Most adjusters in the design bureau only focus on one field and then develop it collaboratively.

And with this skill, it will not be difficult for him to decipher some information in the future.

But can something that is forced be considered a gift?

"what happened?"

He Kui's overly obscene smile made Su Lei take a half step back.

She just wanted to say hello to confirm the progress of this talented person. Why is she so happy?
"Sorry, I remembered something happy."

"That's it."

After hearing this, Su Lei did not continue to worry about it but lowered her head to study the new Hello.

There has indeed been progress, and it is very fast. If it continues like this, it may not take long to reach level B.

"Excuse me, I've seen Mr. He's previous micro-manipulation results, and they didn't seem to be anything special, but your Harrow is close to B-level workmanship."

"Maybe it's dawning?"

He Kui didn't expect Su Lei to be so perceptive, and he had no other explanation except this.

"Is that so? Give me one a week from now on, okay?"

Through Haro's workmanship, she was able to roughly analyze that if He Kui's level continued to improve at this rate, he might be able to help her complete the development.

"no problem!"

"So why are you so excited?"

Su Lei looked at He Kui with suspicion in her big eyes.

"Have it?"

He was just worried that he had no reason to give a gift, so how could he not be happy.

"Forget it. Just remember to bring me the latest one."

"Understood!"

After saying goodbye to Su Lei, He Kui became worried again after being excited.

He really has never played a cultivation game, so he has no idea about how to improve favorability. As for trying to please someone, he knows nothing about Su Lei except her name. Fortunately, it only says favorability, so it doesn't necessarily have to be the favorability of a lover, right?

He Kui hurried outside, delaying his stall setting.
