Chapter 60: Stacking Buffs
Su Yu was now thoroughly confused.
Looking at David’s muscular body, his powerful arms, and his scruffy beard, he wondered, "Is this really a woman?" Was there something wrong with the gender identification system in this country?
Just as Su Yu was starting to doubt his sanity, David explained, "It’s actually like this."
He pointed to a line of small text at the bottom of the driver’s license: "Sir, as you can see, it clearly states: 'You were originally male, but your personal gender identity is female, and you are also a lesbian with a special interest in cross-dressing. Additionally, you are a noble environmentalist, an animal protector, and a vegetarian.'"
Su Yu stared at the driver’s license.

David continued, "With these identity labels, you will be respected in any city in the country, and you’ll receive many special discounts, free from discrimination. This is very popular in our country now, with over 50% of the original males identifying as ‘female’ in the gender column."
"Shit." Su Yu rubbed his forehead, at a loss for words to describe his current state of despair.
The Lankte Alliance truly lived up to its reputation as the stronghold of the left. In comparison, the strong right-wing faction of the Sun Empire seemed almost endearing.
However, there was nothing he could do about it now.
Getting another driver’s license with a male gender would waste another three hours, and he didn’t want to waste his time on this.
So, Su Yu pinched his nose and accepted the "female" driver’s license.
After all, he would return to Earth in a week, and he could change his identity the next time he came.
Su Yu gave David a round of [Memory Erasure].
Then, he took Morning Star and picked up the basket of "sweet dates" before leaving the apartment building.
To be honest, the sweet dates were quite delicious. He could bring some back to Earth and see if the soil there could support their growth.
The dilapidated apartment building they were in had no elevator, so Su Yu had to walk down the stairs.
On the way down, Morning Star, unusually, did not play with her phone. Instead, she propped her face up with her paws and watched him.
"What are you looking at?" Su Yu glanced at her, puzzled.
"Nothing," Morning Star said with a smile, wagging her tail. "Ms. Garcia, the cross-dresser, is there anything this kitty can do for you?"
"Yes, go back to the pet space," Su Yu replied without changing his expression.
"Hmph! You’re so cruel! I sleep with you every night, and you treat me like this?" Morning Star put on a pout, looking like a wronged lover.
Cats preferred warmth over cold, and this was evident with Morning Star, the star realm cat. Back on Earth, every morning when Su Yu woke up, he would find Morning Star somehow snuggled into his bed, either lying on his chest or hugging his arm. "Sleeping with him every night" wasn’t a lie.
But Su Yu didn’t care about that. He grabbed the soft flesh at the back of Morning Star’s neck and stuffed her back into the pet space.
Leaving the apartment building, Su Yu got into the white anti-gravity hover car he had just bought and and and toward the capital of L of the Lankte Alliance, Trener City.
To get to Trener City, he had to take the highway.
However, as the hover car approached the highway toll booth, a small incident occurred.
After the car entered the toll booth, a synthesized electronic voice came from the left front, "Please show your driver’s license."
Su Yu handed his new driver’s license to a mechanical arm outside the window.
A few seconds later, the electronic voice rang out again, "Welcome, Ms. Garcia!"
"Given that you are a special LGBT individual, our company always respects the legitimate rights of LGBT people. Therefore, we will waive the toll for your high-speed journey. Enjoy your trip!"
"Given your dedication to environmental protection, we are issuing you five 'Charging Vouchers' with a limit of 100 coins each."
"Given your commitment to animal welfare, we believe that the lives of animals are just as important."
In total, there were five similar announcements. The electronic voice finally stopped when the car behind them honked impatiently.
A mechanical arm outside the window returned Su Yu's driver's license and handed him a beautifully packaged purple box. "Purple" is the color used by LGBT individuals in the Runkte Alliance as an identity marker.
Inside the box were not only the charging vouchers but also hotel vouchers, restaurant vouchers, and various special service vouchers.
The discounts on these vouchers were substantial. For example, the "Charging Vouchers" allowed you to charge your floating car for 1000 Runkte coins worth of power for just 500 coins, a 50% discount.
The other vouchers offered similar discounts, ranging from 50% to 60%.
This was a significant temptation for the Runkte Alliance, especially for the lower-class citizens. No wonder David mentioned that 50% of male drivers in the country had their gender marked as female on their licenses to take advantage of these discounts.
.
Morning Star jumped out of the pet space, picked a sweet date from the basket, and said as she ate, "The people here are really insane."
Su Yu nodded in agreement, "I didn't expect the social development in the Runkte Alliance to be so distorted."
The floating car was now on the highway, automatically traveling at 500 kilometers per hour toward the capital, requiring no intervention from Su Yu.
Su Yu handed the purple box to Morning Star, "Morning Star, check if there are any issues with this box and its contents online."
He had already used his mental powers to scan the box and found no surveillance or listening devices inside. However, since he didn't recognize the text in the box, it was better to be cautious.
"Sure, Ms. Garcia!" Morning Star smiled and began checking each voucher, comparing them with the information online.
A few minutes later, Morning Star looked up at Su Yu, "I've checked, and there are no issues with these vouchers. In fact, every 'multi-buff' individual like you receives such a box when they get on the highway, once a month."
"Good to know!" Su Yu sighed with relief.
He reached out to pet Morning Star's back, but she quickly jumped away when she saw his large green hand, leaving his hand suspended in mid-air.
Su Yu quickly retracted his hand and cleared his throat to cover his embarrassment, "Morning Star, while we have some time, could you look up information on Trenera City for me?"
Morning Star didn't answer immediately but looked at Su Yu, as if asking why.
Su Yu explained, "Trenera City is different from the two border towns we visited. It is one of the top three largest cities on the entire Skrul planet, and it has an Eighth-Rank Divine-Level powerhouse on par with Lady Bernina. We can't afford to be careless this time."
Morning Star nodded and her paw quickly swiped across the phone screen, "Alright, I'll look up the information for you."
