Volume 5 Indifference, the Nature of the World Chapter 132 Falling into the Quagmire Again
"Black Lake City is not what it should be!"
The shouting team, whose momentum had been accumulated for a long time, finally let out a cry of dissatisfaction. They still seem to miss the old Black Lake City, which is relatively stable, but it is not what they want at all.
After all, the current city center is very sensitive, and even a small act of resistance, a small dissatisfaction, will cause great attention. And they won't give a chance to find out the truth, because with this time, the real bad guys would have fled long ago, and it would be better to execute them directly.
The so-called "it's okay if you don't do bad things" is actually just comforting people.
Just because you don't do bad things doesn't mean that others won't frame you for doing bad things. If there is a good reason, the guards will "sacrifice the small to save the big" and decide to put those who have been falsely accused but have no way to refute them on the spot. After grasping the policy blind spot in the city center, some people finally began to make waves again, and many citizens who did not know the truth were involved.
If the city center continues to kill, the people of Black Lake City are afraid that they will gradually die out in the cannibalism.
The ruler of the city center is indeed more difficult than imagined, and the former Black Lake City, with its tolerant and ordinary policies, has been constantly exploited and exploited by the wicked. However, the current Black Lake City will still cause people's dissatisfaction, and it still can't stop some people who are born for evil.
What's more, there are far more selfish, self-indulgent people in this world than in the real world. After all, when they come to this world, people basically can't go back, and the mainstream ideas of this world always impact them, looking at so many self-indulgent people, ignoring the law and hurting honest people, which inevitably makes people who originally suppressed their wild nature unable to resist the temptation.
This is something that has been mentioned for a long time.
Even if the current mayor has already prepared for the worst, the reality always refreshes their perception again and again, and they can't help but change step by step.
The ideal is still the ideal, they can control the honest people, but they can't control the thieves.
If you have the power of Bai Nanyu, it is estimated that it will still be difficult to control such a Black Lake City, always supporting the west wall and the south wall to fall, and the south wall not supporting the east wall to shake. But even so, they have already carried this burden, then they must persevere, if they can, one day the world can have the same order as the real world.
Bai Nanyu also has this kind of thought.
Wait and see, the current mayor is like the former Mayor Yu, watching from the same place, looking at this calm city. Closing his eyes wearily, he seemed to see a newly built fortress collapsing.
Is there no way to get people to learn to stick together?
As many people increase, there will be more opinions, and there will be more diversity of ideas, and no matter what one person does, there will always be people who will be dissatisfied. If it's just an individual, some people are dissatisfied and can be completely ignored, but the people in the city center are the ones who control the power in Black Lake City.
"Mayor!" A knock on the door was accompanied by a call, and a man pushed the door open, and saw that the current mayor had already looked over, and then said, "Mayor, we found the people of the dead country, they are back......"
What was the reason that Bai Nanyu, as an administrator, was rejected by the ancient ruins?
After discovering that something was wrong and withdrawing from the ancient ruins, Bai Nanyu kept looking at his arm, thinking about the reason for his rejection. Could it be that the old man in the mountain did not give enough authority at the beginning, so Bai Nanyu was recognized as a "temporary administrator" who restricted his power?
Or is she, as the old man in the mountains said, really not ready to be an "administrator"? No, that's a "watchman" and has nothing to do with "administrators". Therefore, this ability has all the rights of the "administrator", and can control anything like the old man in the mountains.
In addition to the remains of the oval building.
What's so special about that building? And what the weird robot said to Bai Nanyu, "You shouldn't be an administrator", what does it mean? Isn't Bai Nanyu qualified?
So what is it that is not qualified, not rational enough, not kind enough, not cold-blooded enough?
In short, without solving the mystery there, the research on going back to the real world cannot continue. Moreover, according to the intelligence, neither the Border Self-Defense Force nor the Bad Boys Alliance know the method of "Origin Root" to send people back, so the key to sending people back must be in this gate that cannot be opened.
"You guys should rest first, and when the 'relic radiation' on our bodies has subsided, we will go directly to the 'garden' to find the 'Origin Root'. A member of the Border Self-Defense Force's technical team said as he put on his bag and prepared to enter the oval again.
Now, it's been a few hours since they've left the building, and in a reception room in a still intact building, members of the Border Self-Defense Force's tech team are ready to enter the building again. After all, this trip can't be in vain, since the gate can't be opened, then they can only trespass into the "garden" of the oval building to try their luck, and if they are lucky, they can at least bring back an origin root.
The term "relic radiation" in the mouths of the members of the technical team refers to a term that does not exist like time and temperature, but has only been coined to express the degree to which they are affected by ancient ruins. The more "relic radiation" accumulates, the greater the likelihood of contracting "relic disease".
The so-called "garden" is the area of the oval building near the center, like a primeval jungle. There, there is a lot of vigorous vegetation growing, and flowers bloom everywhere as if they never wither.
There, a white shrub can sometimes be found, which bears pearl-white and clear fruit stripped of its thorns. That is the origin fruit tree, a shrub. When the fruit is ripe, the burrs are white and straight, like a curled hedgehog, people can pick them.
After carefully digging out the fragile bulb and using it as the center of the circle, the vegetation within a meter of the surrounding area will quickly die, unless another origin fruit tree grows nearby. But don't worry, even if you pull out the Origin Fruit Tree, the surrounding plants will die, and the plants not far away will slowly grow.
By the way, after Bai Nanyu and his party were warned by the gate, they tried to go to the "garden", but halfway through Bai Nanyu said that they saw a ghost staring at her and warned her not to stay here.
Otherwise, the ruins will use Bai Nanyu as a provocative enemy and "cheater", erasing her on the spot.
The others didn't see any ghosts, but considering the feelings of Bai Nanyu, who was scared half to death, they chose to withdraw temporarily. After all, they can't see it because they are ordinary people, maybe it's because Bai Nanyu is special, and it's reasonable that only Bai Nanyu can see it.
These warnings were doubts in the eyes of others at best, but when they came to Bai Nanyu, they became a terrible shadow. Her mind kept echoing the scene she had seen at the time, including the robot she had spoken to before.
Those images seemed to be forcibly implanted in her mind, and it was useless for her not to care about them.
The memories flashed over again, and Bai Nanyu finally couldn't hold on, and rolled on the sofa with his head in his arms. The people next to her looked at her in surprise, because they hadn't seen that feeling, so they couldn't understand why Bai Nanyu was so uncomfortable. After all, they just saw some visions and a scary-looking robot, and the others didn't think much of it.
Breathing couldn't help but speed up, and in just the blink of an eye, those hallucinations appeared in front of him again, Bai Nanyu slapped his head and sat up, and finally chose to call Xiao Jing.
"Is that so...... It's kind of scary......"
After a mouthful of talking, Xiao Jing was taken aback by Bai Nanyu's sudden collapse, and she couldn't react for a while. Gradually, Bai Nanyu finished speaking, but those hallucinations were still haunting her mind, and because she had lost the company of nightmares, she now felt the fear of being abandoned, and she was about to go crazy under the influence of hallucinations.
After talking, I felt a little more comfortable, but it didn't seem to be of much use to divert attention and dispel hallucinations. At this time, Xiao Jing proposed to talk to Lin Yiming, so Bai Nanyu handed the mobile phone to Lin Yiming, turned around and continued to cover his head and lie on the sofa.
"Hey, Xiao Jing?"
"Yiming, Bai Nanyu doesn't look very bad now. Xiao Jing whispered, "Her description and performance seem to have the same effect as the nightmare imposing hallucinations, there should be no nightmares there." ”
"Isn't this a long-deprehensible conjecture? There had been experiments before, and Nightmare didn't dare to enter the oval building. ”
After a moment of silence, Xiao Jing nodded.
"Yes, too...... However, I still have a bold guess, that is, Bai Nanyu is so upset and irritable, there may be other reasons. It wasn't any external influence, it was all her own thoughts. ”
"Huh?" Lin Yiming was stunned and didn't react for a long time.
"Hey, why are you guys always so stupid, do you have to make me clear? It's that she's blaming herself for being rejected and not being able to send people back, and she's throwing tantrums with the ruins. ”
"Aha?"
Lin Yiming couldn't help laughing, and then noticed a cold look, and quickly covered his mouth and looked at Bai Nanyu. Sure enough, Bai Nanyu was staring at this side, and his fleshy cheeks seemed to be puffing up, like a pufferfish. This made Lin Yiming couldn't help but laugh again, and then simply stopped pretending.
Bai Nanyu's performance is a complete talent, making her look like she is cute even if she is angry, but in fact, she just tightened her lips and did not deliberately puff out her cheeks.
It turned out to be just a child's temper, a false alarm. Lin Yiming thought about it, and suddenly felt a lot more relieved, it seemed that he didn't have to be afraid that he wouldn't be able to deal with Xiao Jing when he went back.
"Can you give Bai Nanyu the phone again? I'll talk to her again. ”
After Xiao Jing finished speaking, Lin Yiming silently handed the mobile phone to Bai Nanyu. His eyes swept to Bai Nanyu's face, and Lin Yiming found that Bai Nanyu was still staring at him, and this cold gaze made him a little panicked.
Suddenly, just when he thought that Bai Nanyu had heard something and was about to get angry, Bai Nanyu suddenly sold a cute "babble", and snatched the mobile phone away, seeing that Lin Yiming was confused again. This time, it was Lin Yiming's turn to look at Bai Nanyu. It was obvious that Bai Nanyu had just heard Xiao Jing's words, after all, the neighborhood was too quiet, and the volume of the mobile phone conversation was not lowered.
"You guessed it, what a terrible woman. Bai Nanyu picked up the phone and complained.
"Poof......" Xiao Jing, who was still at the office of the Bad Boy Alliance, covered her mouth and smiled, and finally turned serious, "Bai Nanyu, I want to ask you, do you think that your duties have ended with the end of the game." ”
Admittedly, it seems, it does.
Wanting to rush people back also happens to prove this. Finally freed Black Lake City from the shackles of the country, Bai Nanyu looked at this strict city, feeling that it was like a rush to work because of lack of time.
But what can it be? Although Bai Nanyu always has ideals, that enthusiasm has long been wiped out, and it only comes to mind from time to time, reminding her of what she fought for in the first place. Anyway, at least let Black Lake City get rid of the game first, and send back her sister who is still hiding in Black Lake City, Bai Nanyu thought so.
Therefore, Bai Nanyu was just holding on to the psychology of luck, and he only had the liberation of Black Lake City in his mind, and there was no further plan. At this time, she was rejected by the ancient ruins, and the plan to send people back did not progress, and she was very uneasy.
However, she was rejected by the ancient ruins, is that because of this? wouldn't she?
"I really guessed all my thoughts, you woman, don't you even know what color I'm wearing. Also, you don't want to say that this has something to do with my rejection, do you?" Bai Nanyu suddenly showed some indifference.
"I didn't say it had anything to do with your rejection, I just wanted to say that you don't slack off, you have to prepare for the future. If you can't send people back at the moment, that means we're still busy, don't think about it once and for all. Dreams are something that can never be chased, we can only keep working towards it. Xiao Jing's tone gradually softened, as if she was recalling a beautiful story, and an innocent smiling face even appeared in front of her, "If you want to create a harmonious world for her and make up for the time when you were homeless with her, then don't give up." People are looking at all this you do, and there are already a lot of people supporting you.
No matter what happens to Black Lake City in the future, at least the Black Lake City Self-Defense Forces that support you are growing, and they are willing to help you build a harmonious world. Even if the world is only the size of a building now, that doesn't mean there isn't, don't give up Bai Nanyu. ”
After a long time, Xiao Jing once again began to motivate Bai Nanyu, even though it may still be a time-limited "adrenaline", but it can make Bai Nanyu last for a day.
"I just want ...... Don't be strangled in the cradle......" Bai Nanyu still said a pessimistic word.
But that's what she really thinks, and it's a good thing to be able to say it.
"Don't worry, Bai Nanyu, if you are afraid of failure, you will never have a chance to stand up, even if everyone will die for you, then everyone at least feels the feeling of being alive, not dying in vain. ”
After Xiao Jing finished speaking, Bai Nanyu silently put down her phone, her mood was much soothed, and she was no longer so afraid of the hallucinations that surrounded her mind, but began to analyze it rationally. However, before he could expect anything, Xiao Jing's voice came from again.
That was Xiao Jing's thief laughing, and then there was a sentence that shocked Bai Nanyu: "By the way, I know that your 'fat times' are gray to blue, and the one you are wearing now is gray and blue, I know all of them-Dao-yo!"
The beep sounded immediately after Xiao Jing's voice disappeared, and Xiao Jing hung up the phone, but Bai Nanyu was still stunned in place with a red face, and there was no movement for a long time. A few seconds later, she tentatively raised her head, but she happened to meet Lin Yiming's eyes. Bai Nanyu raised his trembling hand and pushed his glasses, and then pointed at Lin Yiming tremblingly.
"You...... Hear me, right? ”
"I didn't ...... No...... I didn't hear anything......" Lin Yiming replied instantly, and retreated towards the door of the reception room as he spoke.
"You must have heard ......"
"No, really no! I don't know what Yan ...... is."
"Come back!" Bai Nanyu scolded him, but a shy smile had already emerged, "You must have heard it!
The two laughed, Lin Yiming took the lead in running out of the reception room, and Bai Nanyu rolled up his sleeves and chased out, leaving only the adults who didn't know the truth, sighing "It's good to be young", and then silently closed his eyes to recuperate.
In the face of difficulties and setbacks one after another, it is admirable to be able to persevere and maintain the consciousness of one's heart, but there are really very few people who can do it. Seeing that Bai Nanyu had the heart to joke and chase with friends, it seemed that he should have figured it out temporarily. I hope that this time, she can survive the real disintegration of another city......
