Chapter 1 Summer Solstice
The summer of Hematite is the best season of the year.
Only in this season, when the bright sunshine takes away the cold and extreme carbon dioxide, the ice field reveals its original appearance, can the Hematite regain its vitality.
People walked out of their houses and set out towards the ice field.
For five months, the most important task for the residents of Hematite is to chisel ice and store water.
Of course, there are exceptions.
In a room in Hematite Slum - Beta Street, someone was still sleeping soundly while the sun was shining on his butt.
However, the luxury of sleeping in doesn't last long.
A mechanical male voice rang in the room, repeating the same sentence coldly: "Blade is calling! Brade is calling!..."
The ringtone came from a blue quilt, looking a little dull.
A black head emerged from the blue quilt, followed by a pair of slender but calloused hands. As the hands stretched out the quilt, the ringtone became clearer.
It is not difficult to tell that the ringtone came from the old-fashioned light brain that should have been recycled from the metal stacking pit.
In fact, this thing is really an antique item that Tang Fan found from the metal stacking pit.
Anyway, it can be used after one practice, so why waste it?
Tang Fan, a thin fifteen-year-old girl, has always implemented the virtue of thrift and thrift in the family.
After all, nutritional agents cost money, renting a house costs money, and medicines that delay women's development cost money...
The most common saying that Tang Fan talks is: Don’t throw it away, and use it again.
So much so that in the eyes of others, he is always a Taoist boy wearing trash iron.
As a smart person, Tang Fan never defends people's mistakes in their cognition, and will make reasonable use of them or even guide them incorrectly.
In Hematite, being a human being is harder, being a woman is even harder, and being a beautiful woman is even harder. Tang Fan doesn’t want to cause trouble for himself.
Brad is not a patient person. If she doesn't respond before the ringtone is finished, she can break into the door.
Although Brad has always been careless, there is a difference between men and women. If you can avoid it, just avoid it!
Even though he didn't fall asleep at three in the morning, Tang Fan still opened his eyes with difficulty, shook his head, and tried hard to wake him up.
After typing twice on his own brain, the ringtone came to an abrupt end.
"I'll get down in three minutes!"
After comforting Brad in a simple and clear sentence, Tang Fan immediately lifted the quilt and rushed into the bathroom at a speed of light.
A thin figure immediately appeared on the smooth metal walls on all sides.
When he lifted the messy hair, his little face with a little baby fat finally showed up.
The clean and clear eyes, the high nose bridge, and the rosy thin lips are so beautiful that they are not inferior to any popular star.
At the age of fifteen, Tang Fan had no idea about this at all.
He clearly understood how sad it would be to have a beautiful appearance but not have the corresponding ability in Hematite.
On Beta Street, living is a technology and an art. It is normal to disappear or die overnight.
I couldn't wait to cover my face with the towel. When the towel left my face, the too long bangs had pressed against the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, perfectly seamlessly connected.
Tang Fan, who covered his eyebrows and eyes, became a little gloomy, and also looked much more ordinary and neutral.
Tang Fan nodded with satisfaction, and quickly changed into a white protective suit. It took less than ten minutes to successfully clean up himself properly.
Tang Fan was about to rush out of the house, but when he was passing by the living room, a man on the sofa with a smell of sweat successfully stopped Tang Fan.
He took out three nutrients from his space buckle and placed them on the small table in front of the sofa.
After hesitating for a moment, he took out a bowl-shaped vessel and a white starchy object as big as a bowl from the space buckle.
Tang Fan broke a small piece of white starchy object and threw it into the vessel, pressed a button, sighed, and rushed out.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Tang Fan saw Brad, who was looking at his brain and counting down ten.
It is obvious that everyone is fifteen years old and they eat similar food, but Brad just has a way to grow into a big and thick look.
Compared with Tang Fan, who is 1.83 meters tall and 88 kilograms tall and 1.65 meters tall and 43 kilograms, Brad is a veritable fat man.
But Brad himself didn't think so.
He always says that he is not fat, but strong.
“Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one…”
Brad, who was in the voice change period, had a rough and hoarse voice, which made Tang Fan's mouth twitch.
When Brad counted to one, Tang Fan couldn't help but point Brad's shoulders.
Brad suddenly turned his head, hooked Tang Fan's shoulder, smiled with teeth, and said, "You are ten seconds late. Is your unreliable dad back?"
Tang Fan did not answer Brad's question, quickly patted Brad's hand and asked, "Have Donald and the others set out?"
Obviously, Tang Fan doesn't want to talk about this issue.
Brad shut his mouth tactfully and replied, "They set off three minutes ago!"
Tang Fan frowned and accelerated his pace. Brad quickly followed.
There are only two mecha repair shops in Hematite. One of the owners is Brad's father William Smith, one of the few good friends of Tang Fan's irresponsible father; the other owner is Donald's father Bob Smith.
So, the entire Hematite, Donald and his young follower Daniel are the only competitors of Tang Fan and Brad.
It’s the kind that you can drink more nutrients to celebrate when you see the other person being defeated.
Tang Fan narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Let's take a shortcut and chase!"
Brad said ok happily, and couldn't wait to pull Tang Fan onto the flying board and fly towards Ji Guan.
Because he took a shortcut, Tang Fan, Brad almost arrived at Ji Guan at the same time, along with Donald and Daniel.
Seeing Tang Fan and Brad's figures, Donald's chubby face showed a look of regret.
"I thought you two couldn't catch up today!"
Tang Fan said lightly, "I'm sorry, I've let you down."
Daniel, the short man next to Donald, said sarcastically: "They are the two? As long as you smell a little credit, even if you are about to die, you will continue to climb over."
Brad clenched his fists angrily, but was stopped by Tang Fan.
"If you are dirty, you have to pay for your credit, which is not cost-effective!"
The understatement was full of the smell of money, but it successfully comforted Brad and made Daniel's face turn gray.
Brad looked at his fists, then at Daniel's changing face, and suddenly realized, "That's right! Why didn't I expect it!"
Donald said with a smile: "There is no point in mouth, we will see the truth in our hands."
Chapter completed!
