Five minutes later, when Lin Chi changed into a "cold suit" and returned to the living room sweating profusely, the young man leaning on the sofa raised his head and made a surprised voice:

"Aren't you hot like this?"

"There's no way, follow the locals." Lin Chi looked at the young man in front of him and instructed, "It's better for you to wear a coat as well, there are still a few in the bedroom." ”

As a "fugitive", he naturally wants to keep a low profile first. With Jane's current dress on the streets, she will undoubtedly become the center of attention, and it will not be good if she attracts the attention of the patrolmen.

"It's too hot, forget it......" The boy shook his head, his voice full of reluctance.

"Alright then, you stay here and don't move, I'll go out and see what's going on." Lin Chi lowered the brim of the cap as he spoke, and with the white mask on his face, he almost covered his entire face, revealing only two eyes.

After camouflage, he opened the green metal door of the living room and walked out onto the streets of the "capital of hell".

The scorching sun overhead made Lin Chi, who was wearing a thick coat, feel like a sauna, and as for how the pedestrians on the street felt at this time, just look at the red and black complexion of their exposed hands, it was clear.

Lin Chi stood silently on the side of the street, two patrolmen with AK-47s passed by him, these soldiers did not recognize the person in front of him as a wanted criminal, and still patrolled back and forth on the sidewalk without saying a word.

Seeing that the ordinary patrol soldiers failed to recognize him, Lin Chi finally calmed down and began to observe the situation of passers-by on the street.

Then, at once, he noticed something strange again:

These pedestrians, who were covered in military coats and sweated profusely, looked painful, but their voices were full of joy from the heart:

"Did you watch yesterday's TV?"

"Ahh It's actually replayed, it's so beautiful! ”

A man and a woman wrapped in coats passed past Lin Chi, and a low voice sounded from the mask, with undisguised excitement. After the two passed, a few more people came out of the restaurant next to them and said with satisfaction:

"The food in this restaurant is so good, we will come next time!"

"yes, it's heaven!"

Listening to the exaggerated tones of these people, Lin Chi narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything, walking along the sidewalk towards the west side of the street, continuing to listen to the words of passers-by along the way.

"Blame ......," he muttered quietly.

In the case of being hot like this, even he, who has always been calm, has a vague urge to scold. But the passers-by on the street were all radiant and radiant, full of "positive energy", and they didn't even complain.

- What the hell is going on with these guys?

When Lin Chi was guessing, he saw a thin woman in a black coat walking towards him.

Her body staggered as if she might fall at any moment, her eyes swollen from under her wide-brimmed hat, bloodshot eyes, and visible tear stains underneath.

Realizing that the other party seemed to be very sad, Lin Chi stopped, stared at the woman, and looked at the other party's appearance:

On this street, a sad person finally appeared?

Lin Chi was guessing, when he saw the other party take out an old-fashioned mobile phone in the shape of a brick from his pocket, put the bulky microphone to his mouth, laughed tremblingly, and said:

"Don't worry, haha, my son's funeral is over! Let's go home and have a good meal, hahahaha......"

Although the woman was laughing, there was sadness in her voice that could not be concealed, but even so, she still kept laughing and passed past Lin Chi without looking back.

“……”

Looking at the back of the other party's departure, Lin Chi couldn't help but be silent, then bent down to pick up the wallet that fell out of the other party's pocket, quickly caught up with the woman, and patted her shoulder:

"Your wallet is off."

"Ahh

The middle-aged woman who had just put down the phone was so frightened that she trembled, turned around in a panic, snatched the wallet from Lin Chi's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you......"

"Well, if you want to cry, you might as well cry?" Lin Chi asked tentatively.

Hearing this, the woman frowned and shook her head, and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "This is a forbidden matter. Then he turned and left.

- What's the situation?

Lin Chi stared at the other party's distant back in confusion, as if an ellipsis slowly floated from the top of his head.

He originally planned to go to the streets to investigate the situation here, but he was even more confused, and he couldn't figure out what the routine of this city, known as the "capital of hell", was.

It seems that the residents here are tightly wrapped, as if they are in a state of laughter at all times, and even if they have just attended their son's funeral, they must force their faces to laugh.

The patrols on the streets were heavily armed, looking like they were on the verge of an enemy, and the buildings along the road looked sturdy, more like bunkers used in war than houses.

In addition to this, there is another very strange feature of this street: there are no street lights.

Lin Chi walked to the intersection in front of him, stood at the intersection and looked around, he didn't even see a single street lamp, and there were no lamps installed on the outside of the building on the side of the road that could be illuminated.

In other words, don't the residents of this area need street lights at night?

Realizing this, and remembering the little reminder of "please be more careful when going out at night" when entering the game, Lin Chi turned around suspiciously and walked to the bulletin board on the street.

It may be that there is a curfew in place, prohibiting citizens from going out at night. But even then, it's a bit odd not to install street lights.

Could it be that the city has been under curfew since it was founded?

Lin Chi stood in front of the bulletin board on the side of the road, staring at the few flyers posted on the sign, the imaginary advertisements did not appear, and all the information that appeared on the bulletin board was official propaganda:

"Keep smiling, don't be sad!"

"We need smiles, Holomensk needs positive energy!"

"So that's why people on the street are laughing?" Lin Chi raised his head in surprise.

Two young men walked behind him laughing, chatting about their weekend homework. Despite the laughter and laughter that filled the street, there was a bone-chilling chill in his back.

- The inhabitants of this place are not really happy, they just keep smiling at the behest of the ruler, and everyone seems to be wearing masks, like brainwashed dolls.

Realizing this, he jerked back to look back at the patrolling soldiers: they didn't smile at all, but walked around the sidewalk indifferently with their guns in hand, observing the pedestrians on the side of the road.

"What the hell is this...... What the hell is the place? Lin Chi scolded in a low voice.
