No Time

Chapter 49

After I got my ears pierced, girls started giving me accessories saying that I should keep such valuable jewelry(the diamond studs) at home.

Today, I was wearing regular silver hoop rings that had small patterns indented. It was a gift on my birthday and I liked it very much and wore it often.

By now, my hair was so long that it almost reached the ground. It was time for a haircut.

I went to the same auntie from last time. We had dinner before when she invited me over and her family was very... outstanding. They weren't afraid of offending me and joked around. The conversations were interesting and I liked them a lot. They really felt like a complete family.

"It's such a pity to cut away long hair!" she cried out.

"Your job is a hair stylist. What kind of hair stylist would say these words?" I smiled.

"I would because you look good with long hair!" she retorted.

"Then, please trim it to my back's length and give me a fringe," I requested.

After preparing the scissors, brush, sponge, chair, and wrap-around-smok as she called it, I was sat in front of the bathroom mirror and she snipped my hair off.

You actually can't feel the difference when it's being cut off, you can't see that it was taking process wither since it was so long. For the fringe, you could see them taking shape though.

In the end, she cut it to near my back, so it did make a difference.

"Ok, go take a shower. It feels great to have all that weight off your head and you can just feel it when the water flushes on your head."

"Thank you." I grabbed the large towel she handed and she went out of the bathroom after cleaning up all the hair on the floor.

It really did feel refreshing as all the weight on my head was suddenly gone when the water hit me.

After showering and turning the water tap off, I dried myself and took out clothes from my space to wear.

Looking once more in the mirror, I was pretty satisfied with my new haircut.

I thanked the auntie and left after gifting her some apples.

I wandered around all day, leaving all the governing work to representatives. I had no worry at all.

Now, about that marriage that Ge mentioned... Had they still not done the deed? Do they want to get married before they do it?

There was no need to think of it any further.

Ge had sent me information about the people who should be invited. It would just be a small marriage ceremony with the Lu clan members and our family and friends.

And I was ultimately tasked with bringing our ex-parents to the base.

They should have grouped up and moved to a base by now. The technology was still weird and only worked within the specialized people who had authority. They didn't properly record down everyone yet either so it would be useless to unleash hackers to find them.

Guessing that they would be in the same group as in the past, I headed towards district B.

While I was flying, the mutant raven from yesterday flew over to me. I gave a small smile and handed the jerky I had massively stocked up on piece by piece. Actually, was it ok for birds to eat jerky?

No matter, the bird ate it all with impressive gusto. It didn't fly away immediately and flew next to me as if he was a companion.

"Are you following me for food?" I laughed. The large bird cawed once and looked away.

It left soon after and left me alone again.

So, how should I find my ex-parents?

Only by going to bases and looking for them on each base would be the solution.

My leisurely free time was over and I fell down headfirst closing my wings.

Exhilaration was the only emotion I felt as I dipped down and crashed onto the ground. Not crashed, but landed with a loud boom.

As I was near a base, soldiers started coming out and surrounded me.

"Hands up! Surrender peacefully and we won't shoot!" yelled one of the soldiers. The one who yelled had several badges on and a uniform that looked different from the others.

I put my hands up only to my sides and smiled.

"I surrender. Can you take me into the base?"
