Chapter 1648: Chapter 1648: An Inspiring Goal
This is an era where identity verification is extremely strict. Due to high technology, all identification documentation, as well as a person’s growth records, family, school, and work, are all recorded in the government’s database.
So it’s absolutely impossible to find a black market to forge an identity card.
As a result, tragically, she is now undocumented, much like a stowaway or an illegal immigrant.
Stowaways can still be sent back to their country; she doesn’t even know if she gets caught, whether she’ll just be thrown back into the ocean.
The train stopped in the city, at the edge of East City’s commercial district. Madam Roland took her into a big supermarket, to the sanitary products section. Jun Yiyi discovered that even with large supermarkets’ shelves, such products were indeed still scarce, and such a large supermarket with so many people, yet there were very few women in front of this shelf.
And as she stood there, surprisingly, there were even girls looking at her with envious eyes.
Feeling quite awkward, she quickly grabbed a heap, swiftly left the shelf. Then, in the supermarket, to her frustration, she couldn’t find any hair dye products in the personal care section.
Jun Yiyi could only ask Madam Roland, who shrugged her shoulders, "You don’t know that the country prohibits the use of dye products, if discovered, it also counts as illegal."
Jun Yiyi was speechless. Dyeing hair is even illegal, who on earth enacted such bizarre laws, it’s simply perverse.
"Naturally, it’s made by men. This is a patriarchal society; they want to distinguish the superiority and inferiority among women so they can pursue them, naturally promoting such dumb regulations." Madam Roland said sarcastically, then picked up a bottle of pet hair dye from the pet zone and stuffed it to her.
Jun Yiyi took the pet dye with a dark line, she actually fell to the same level as a pet.
At this moment, she felt that women here were quite pitiful. More advanced than on Earth, but the status of women is very low, heavily discriminated against, especially women who can’t bear children.
She still preferred Earth, though not that advanced, at least women lived more comfortably.
Sigh, when will she be able to return, is there any way she can go back?
Passing by the book section, Jun Yiyi’s eye suddenly caught a newspaper, and seeing the content on it, her eyes instantly lit up.
Joyfully grabbing that newspaper, it wrote that the Royal Institute of Technology recently announced that one of their advanced laboratories was researching warp speed spacecraft!
Staring at the words "warp speed spacecraft," Jun Yiyi’s eyes sparkled, holding her breath.
For science students, these four words are not unfamiliar. Isn’t this the so-called time machine? Warp speed is faster than the speed of light. Modern science believes that if a spacecraft can reach above light speed, it can conduct time travel, returning to the past or future.
Jun Yiyi couldn’t help but clasp the newspaper tighter. This world is indeed a more technologically advanced world, already researching to this level. Oh my god, if the research succeeds, she could take a spaceship back to Earth.
However, while Jun Yiyi is excited, she’s not foolish. Even if this study really succeeds, an ordinary person like her would not have the qualifications to board such a spacecraft. After all, even if they are looking for someone to test it, they wouldn’t come to Yalan Country for her.
Yes, she needs to get closer to this laboratory to have a chance.
As soon as Jun Yiyi thought of having a chance to return, she suddenly felt full of ambition and strong hope, tightly fixating on the Royal Institute of Technology, making a firm decision!
That’s right, she’s going to apply to the Royal Institute of Technology.
"Why are you so excited?" Madam Roland saw her suddenly with a face full of excitement and eyes shining bright, couldn’t help but ask.
Jun Yiyi, with a face full of enthusiasm, clenched her fists, "I’ve decided to apply to the Royal Institute of Technology!"
