DAY 84 Compromises and concessions
My brother looked at me, who was angry, then at the keychain in his hand, and compromised: "Okay, let's wake up this person on the ground, and then borrow it from him, okay?" Otherwise, we won't be able to get a car in a short time. ”
I hesitated: what if this man was infected? My brother and I will be in danger of our lives. But what my brother said is right, maybe there are not many car shops in this neighborhood because it is not the city center, although there are a few cars parked on the street, but there is no car key and no way to drive, you can only rely on the car key of the man in front of you.
How to choose? "Mom and Dad" can't drag on like this, and I can't compromise my brother to give up his moral code. Isn't there an option that can be taken into account by both parties?
Seeing that I didn't answer, my brother was already about to reach out and push the man.
I hurriedly grabbed my brother, paused, and made a difficult concession: "Don't wake him up, it's too dangerous to do this without confirming anything." Let's leave a copy of our contact information, so that if he wakes up, if he really needs anything, he can contact us at any time. Anyway, it's already out of the secret passage, so the phone should be able to be used, right? "Although the signal station will probably be out of service after a while, right? ……
The younger brother was also relieved that he didn't have to wake up the man: "Okay, I'll take a look...... Well, the signal is full, and it works. I left my phone number. ”
At this time, I thought of something, glanced at my brother's mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and said in a daze: "Anyway, can the 4G network be used now?" ”
"Huh? Can it work? My brother was looking for a note, a pen and paper on his desk in the store to write down his phone number.
"Then can't we find them by locating the iWatch that 'Mom and Dad' are wearing?" My tone began to grow a little agitated.
The younger brother was also stunned, and finally excitedly clenched the note in his hand at once: "That's right! And this method!! Why didn't we think of it sooner?? "Obviously before going out, I still remember that if "Mom and Dad" accidentally lost it, you can locate and find it through iWatch, why did you really come to F City and forget everything?
It is estimated that the impact of the secret passage on us is too great. It seems that staying underground for too long can really dull the mind......
My brother quickly took a new note, quickly wrote down the situation and his mobile phone number, stuffed the note into the palm of the man on the ground, and then pulled me to the fourth floor of the mall while unlocking the phone and pressing something.
"What are we going to do on the fourth floor? Didn't you go to 'Mom and Dad'? I was forced to run after him and asked as I felt something strange.
"The mobile phone is about to run out of battery, the power bank is not brought in the car outside the former city hall, and I just saw that the fourth floor is the electronics monopoly area." My brother's fingers raced across the phone screen.
I gave him a blank look: "I don't bring such an important thing as a power bank." ”
He said very aggrievedly: "It's too heavy, and I think that F City is so prosperous that there must be shops selling power banks everywhere, and I have long wanted to change a power bank." ”
I suddenly felt that it was time to teach my younger brother a lesson in ideological and moral education: sure enough, many of my previous behaviors were not considered, especially in front of my younger brother...... It's really wrong to take things for nothing! He can't be allowed to have such bad thoughts again, especially at his current dangerous age, and it really doesn't work well if he forms habitual thoughts that are difficult to change.
But to be honest, this kind of ideological and moral education does not seem to be very important in this social environment...... Society has already collapsed in its initial state, and these original orders of society have long since existed in name only, and in fact, there is no longer any need to rigidly abide by those rules and regulations. Because even if we comply, the society can no longer give us the equivalent of a stable and peaceful life, and at the same time, no one will benefit from it, and it doesn't seem to play a positive role, but can only make our lives more difficult and difficult.
But behavior can affect a person's essence and character, and if the younger brother gradually begins to learn badly, won't the gain outweigh the loss? Especially at this age when he is in adolescence, he is the most susceptible. At this time, it is really good to indulge him to only take his own convenience and take it for granted, in various stores, and even to others?
Especially just now, he even didn't hesitate to knock others out in order to get the car...... And without a hint of hesitation, wouldn't it be terrible to continue like this?
Although that car was there to save our mom and dad. Thinking about it like this, I feel very contradictory, so is he good or not? ……
I found out that Mom and Dad weren't there, and lately I was thinking about things that were getting more and more complicated, especially for my younger brother. I really have no experience in how to educate a child. I couldn't judge his current nature and inner thoughts, and I didn't have the innate insight that a mother had for her own child.
Naturally, my younger brother didn't know what I was struggling with at the moment, and he was alone there muttering, "Why didn't you show the location of 'Mom and Dad'......?" Is it an internet speed issue? Rotten apples. Then while complaining, he turned off the phone and restarted it.
While waiting for the shiny white Apple in the center of the black screen to transform into a phone-themed background, we reached the fourth floor and headed straight for the Apple store.
First, we took a few data cables inside, and then ran to the unknown electronics store next door, took a power bank on the cargo shelf, and after disassembling it to confirm that there was power, my brother successfully charged his mobile phone.
Witnessing all this numbly, I was naturally tormented and entangled, but in the end I chose not to say anything. Because at this time, we really can't let the key mobile phone drop the chain. Maybe it's just that I'm thinking too much, and I should trust my brother to still have basic judgment.
The younger brother began to squeeze something on his phone screen again.
"Found it." My younger brother suddenly waved his phone at me excitedly and yelled, and then pointed to a certain point on his phone and signaled to me, "Look, the location of 'Mom and Dad', it's great that they didn't close the location!" ”
"Where, where?" I hurried up to take a look.
Really, there is a bubble on a map that reads "Yu Dad's iWatch" and "Yu Ma's iWatch".
The place where the bubble points is the National Library of F City, located in the center of F City.
