Resigned

As Yu Siqi got closer and closer to the scene he had seen in the distance before, the joy he had just ignited began to be gradually washed away by the scene in front of him.

It turned out that the magnificent buildings he had seen before were actually built on top of a huge rock face. The road leading to the top of the rock face is to take the slightly steep mountain road on the left; Then you can only take the way of flying and fly up directly.

But the problem is that neither the former nor the latter seems to be particularly easy to do.

First of all, the former, aside from the ruggedness and steepness of the mountain road itself, the most headache is probably the long queue.

Yes, Yu Siqi didn't expect it at all. In an environment where I couldn't see a few people along the way, there were so many crowded scenes on the mountain road over there.

As for the latter, it's just that you have to find a way to fly up.

Although with his ability, it is not that he cannot fly to an altitude of about 200 meters. But since even the black shadows that used to float in the sky were reluctant to easily approach the high platform, there must be some prohibition from above.

For safety reasons, Yu Siqi thought about it and felt that it was more appropriate for him to be 'down-to-earth' for the time being.

After taking a little time to come to the foot of the mountain, Yu Siqi glanced at the team that couldn't see the end, didn't say anything, just silently joined in.

At this time, the crowd in the second half of the team, who were dressed very similarly to the homeless people they had seen before, let out a little surprise while noticing Yu Siqi.

But other than that, there is nothing drastic.

So Yu Siqi went with them.

However, just as Si Qi'an was queuing up with peace of mind, there was a rather unexpected riot in the queue not far in front of him.

Although Yu Siqi, who was at the back of the team, couldn't have learned the specific reason at the first time, he still knew it from the conversations of the guys dressed as homeless people in front of him. It seems that there is a trolley caught in the queue ahead, because of the rugged mountain road, it is very slow to go up, and it is disgusted by some people. In turn, two groups of people were dissatisfied, and finally there was a 'happy news' quarrel.

It can only be said that it is fortunate that they still know each other very well what they need most, otherwise this meaningless dispute may affect many people behind.

In short, after those people gradually stopped, the team itself began to move forward in an orderly manner.

This whole process is exactly the same as when Yu Siqi was queuing up in the cafeteria to eat, everyone was waiting patiently, but they were always impatient with its slow progress.

Through this waiting in line, Yu Siqi looked around, expecting to see something interesting.

Not to mention, it did allow him to see a view that he couldn't see at all below.

Through his careful observation, Yu Siqi noticed the reason why their team could not move forward quickly.

Part of the reason is naturally because of the rugged mountain roads.

But the more important part, apparently, is at the very front of the line, that is, on the road to the 'high platform', there is actually a similar security checkpoint.

Everyone who tried to pass through there was stopped by two armoured soldiers. After going through a similar public search, they can only be allowed to enter.

One of the more reassuring things is that no one has been detained or deported after being stopped and searched. Almost everyone who has been searched will be released.

However, this does not mean that those people have not suffered so-called losses.

In fact, whether it was the comb they carried with them or the necklace around their necks, the soldiers in charge of the search did not seem to let go of it at all.

Sometimes even the handkerchiefs pinned to the waists of others are snatched away by them, which is no different from bandits.

It was this discovery that made Yu Siqi think a little too much.

It is true that Yu Siqi has nothing of value on his body, and it is unlikely that he will be searched for anything.

But he still knows very well that the two 'king rings' in his hands can't change hands easily.

So in the face of this kind of 'goose plucking' behavior, Yu Siqi began to think about whether he should take some other way to skip this step.

When the time comes, you will directly identify yourself and let the other party know the difficulties and retreat? ’

Yu Siqi thought about it and felt that this method might be a good choice. However, as a party who has already experienced the 'displacement incident', Yu Siqi still thinks that he may have to think of a 'backup' plan.

After all, once the other party is not going to be reasonable. It is obviously better for his side to prepare accordingly early than to leave the expectations to the other party completely.

When he thought of this, Yu Siqi's shoulder was gently pushed.

Then, from behind him, a voice came: "Little brother, it's time to move on." ”

"Oh... I'm sorry..."

Yu Siqi came back to his senses and hurriedly took a few steps forward.

Then he subconsciously looked back and found that the one who had just tapped him on the shoulder was an old man who looked a little hunchbacked, with an extremely ugly cane in his hand.

"Speaking of which, it has been a long time since I have seen the so-called 'living people'. When I saw it today, I really felt a little novel. ”

The old man said as he tilted his head and looked at him with an oblique gaze.

"Hearing you, haven't you seen a living person for a long time?"

Yu Siqi asked very concernedly.

"That's nature. It should be said that this is normal, after all, even three-year-old children know that 'living people' generally do not appear in this lightless realm. Not to mention, it's still the outermost part of the Lightless Realm. ”

The old man said to Siqi with a natural expression.

"Why? Is there any particular reason? ”

Yu Siqi continued to ask.

"Reason? The little brother is really interesting... Can't you really see that we are all Night People who can only survive under the shadows? The so-called being spurned by the light and abandoned by the light refers to this and this! ”

After the old man finished speaking, he appropriately pushed Yu Siqi with his crutches and motioned him to continue walking.

"You seem to be very cultured, completely different from the 'homeless' I have seen before!"

Yu Siqi took a few steps forward and said.

"Although the little brother looks quite wooden, his head is not bad. Let me tell you, don't look at the little old man like this, think about the past... The old decay is also one of the biggest names in this lightless world. If not... Because the sons are too losers, the old man has long been in the courtyard in the Night City, enjoying the blessings. ”

When the old man talked about his past, there was a little unwillingness on his face.

"It's a really sad story."

Yu Siqi silently sympathized with him for a while, and then continued to think about the so-called 'backup plan' for himself. A large part of the reason why he didn't choose to continue chatting with the old man was that he could clearly see the 'security checkpoint' in front of him.

If he doesn't hurry up and think about countermeasures, then he may have to 'resign himself to fate' for the time being.
