The clicking and clacking sounds came intermittently, the whooshing wind ceaselessly struck his face.
Eve and the boy were sitting in a vehicle heading to a southern city at the moment.
There was a direct bus to the southern city nearby, as well as a train, but... the boy had no identification.
Even with money, he couldn't get on board.
Moreover, it wasn't just an identification issue, to date, he didn't even have any legal existence or birth certificate.
He didn't even... have a name of his own to this day.
Therefore, they had to opt for the kind of vehicle that only required money to get on the road... back then, commonly referred to as "black-market transportation."
Fortunately, at least Eve wasn't lacking money, so they were able to find a black-market ride that was available for a fee.
They were thus traveling, gradually leaving the suburbs, crossing the relatively dilapidated outer roads, and finally reaching the relatively smooth city streets.
