The Doctor In the Steampunk World - Chapter 3 New beginning

In the dimly lit room, Simon took off his clothes and was naked, holding a round mirror with a slightly broken mirror, looking back and forth. He wants to make sure that there is nothing wrong with his body.

After a thorough inspection, no problem was found, so I was relieved.

As for the ghost, he didn't see any problem. The main reason is that the notes left by Simon Gust's father are not many.

Although he has read a lot of books about the mysterious side and the extraordinary in the past few years, but at most it has expanded his horizons, and the actual effect is not large.

After playing with the drums for a while, Simon's stomach growled. He hadn't eaten for a day. He was hungry.

It's already like this, let's take one step at a time.

Simon is very optimistic. It is the greatest blessing for him that he can live a new life without having to wait for death in depression in the hospital bed. Moreover, he has become an extraordinary person, which is even more fortunate. As for the unknown issue of the ghost ghost's abnormality, he decisively chose to put it aside for the time being.

Simon has nothing to eat at home, and he never cooks at home. There is nothing of value in his house except a pile of books.

In order to study the mystery and pursue the transcendent, Simon spent most of his money. He usually eats tightly, and sometimes goes hungry.

Simon dug out all the money in the house, two crumpled Yellow Eagle bills and seven Iron Eagle coins, including four Iron Eagle coins of five cents.

The currency of the Red Eagle Federation is divided into four types of banknotes and two types of coins. Whether it is a banknote or a coin, the pattern engraved on it is a majestic giant eagle.

The banknotes include red eagle coins with a face value of 100 yuan, green eagle coins with a face value of 50 yuan, yellow eagle coins with a face value of 10 yuan, and white eagle coins with a face value of 1 yuan. The two coins are the 1 dollar and 5 cent iron eagle coins.

In other words, all of Simon's belongings add up to 25 yuan.

It's not so miserable!

Simon put the money in his pocket, went out to have a meal first, and then fed his stomach.

He took off the quilt from the window, and a large piece of dust shook out from the quilt, covering him like a gray fog.

Bah, Bah, Bah!

Simon quickly dodged, fanning the dust.

How long has this quilt been washed?

In fact, it was never washed at all.

A dazzling light penetrated through the gaps in the wooden planks, and the room suddenly became much brighter.

Simon blew out the butter lamp that was about to burn out, and then tore off the sheet on the gate. The gray sheet looked similar to a rag.

This time, she was shrewd and didn't pull the sheets too hard.

He threw the sheets and quilt on the wooden bed, and did not tidy them up. After eating, they would tidy up together.

He found a wrench from the room and started to pry the wood on the door.

The planks were nailed very honestly, and it took Simon a lot of effort to remove seven or eight planks.

This level of labor is exhausting, panting and sweating. Simon's physical fitness is really poor.

She secretly made up her mind to exercise hard in the future.

Before going out, he wiped off the Sequence Array in the room again, it can't be discovered by others.

Can't wait to open the door and take a deep breath of fresh air, but the so-called 'fresh air' doesn't smell good, it smells like a stinky ditch.

The sky is gray and depressing.

The first thing that catches his eye is a row of dilapidated houses that are closely arranged. Simon can also see that in the distance there are tall and sturdy chimneys that are gurgling at the sky and spraying dark smoke.

The energy of the industrial revolution is mainly coal resources, and the large-scale use of coal will inevitably produce air pollution.

Fossa City is filled with soot all year round, thick smoke billows, smoke and fog mixed with each other, forming a thick smog, lingering over the city for many years, the whole city presents a dark scene.

The houses in the field of vision are also black and gray stained by soot.

This is limited to the outer city where he is now, and the worse lower city. Simon has recently studied at Victoria University, and the inner city where Victoria University is located is not so badly polluted by soot.

Fossa City has a total of four districts, and they are surrounded by a ring.

The most central part is the Central District, which is the center of power and wealth in Fossa City, where the top dignitaries and the top rich live in Fossa City.

At the same time, there is an army stationed there, guarding the security of the central district. It is said that the environment in the central area is also the best, the air is fresh and there is no pollution problem.

Anyway, Simon has never been to the Central District.

Then there is the inner city, the elite area of ​​Fossa City, where elites from all walks of life gather here. There are police stations in all areas of the inner city, and there are police patrols at night, which is also very safe.

Then there is the outer city, which can be said to be the civilian area of ​​Fossa City, where most of the population of Fossa City lives. This is where Simon lives now.

Finally, there is the Xiacheng District, the slum area of ​​Fossa City, the most chaotic and disorderly place in Fossa City. There are gangsters everywhere, and there are armed fights every day. Dead people are the most normal situation.

People who live there have to be careful every day. Almost everyone has weapons in their homes, and firearms are in abundance.

Fossa City has a gun ban law, but the gun ban law in Xiacheng District cannot be implemented or prohibited at all. The police in Fossa City do not dare to easily enter the Xiacheng District to enforce the law.

It is a miracle to live to death in Xiacheng.

The area where Simon lives is the border area between the outer city and the end area. It is quite chaotic here, and there are often fights. Simon has been robbed and extorted by gangsters.

The outer urban area and the lower urban area are also industrial areas of Fossa City. There are factories everywhere, chimneys are everywhere, and the smog is serious. A large amount of industrial waste water and domestic sewage are discharged at will, and the drainage ditches and sewers are full of foul-smelling sewage full of chemical smell.

The outer and lower urban areas are also the trash cans of the central and inner urban areas, and a large amount of household waste is transported to these two urban areas for disposal every day.

There is a famous garbage mountain in Xiacheng District. All the garbage transported from the three urban areas is piled up like a mountain and smells bad.

Even so, there are still a large number of people looking for valuable items in this garbage mountain every day.

There is even a market town surrounding this mountain of garbage, relying on the mountain for life.

The scariest thing in the outer and lower towns isn't murder, it's disease. Living in such a place where the air and water are seriously polluted, infectious diseases are the most terrifying killers.

Once infected with an infectious disease, the economic level of the residents in the outer urban areas and the lower urban areas will not be able to receive treatment at all, and they will basically wait to die.

In the nearly 100-year history of Fossa City, there have been many severe choleras, with tens of thousands of deaths, quite tragic.

This city is really bad.

Or that this new, backward world really sucks.

But Simon doesn't miss the advanced, convenient and safe world of the past.

Because only in this world, he can live healthy.

"Simon, did you just get up?"

At this moment, a rude female voice sounded, Simon looked over, a middle-aged woman who was not good-looking, had a fat body like a water tank, and looked like a famous fighting family aunt came over with a bucket.

Her name is Doreen, and she is Simon's neighbor. Her family is very good.

However, their relationship is not very familiar, it is just a relationship of meeting and saying hello.

"Hello, Doreen, it's getting up late today." Simon said with a kind smile and a hearty smile.

Doreen paused and looked at Simon suspiciously.

Simon Gust is usually very mysterious. To put it bluntly, he is very gloomy. He never takes the initiative to say hello. Usually, Doreen and his wife took the initiative to say hello, while Simon nodded at most and rarely spoke.

Today, Simon not only spoke up, but also smiled so kindly that Doreen was a little puzzled.

Doreen suspects that Simon is on drugs.

Simon realized that his behavior was different from before, smiled, and said nothing, waved with Doreen and walked away quickly.

Simon's face is full of smiles, and he walks with wind. From today, he will start a new life.
