Gu San came here to relax, not to think about those messy things, not to listen to a group of young people come to preach their immature ideas to himself. But the girl didn't seem to notice Gu San's obviously impatient look at all, and still talked about her theory to herself. For a moment, Gu San felt that she might even be a human being, otherwise how could she be so unaware of words and feelings.

"Take a look, ma'am, and you'll know how good these are for you."

Lin Si on the side was snickering, he had seen too many similar things, and he could always know the final result. After pouring wine for the other guests, he moved to Gu San's side, stretched out his hand and clasped his knuckles in front of the little girl, and buttoned the table, "We can't hand out leaflets here, put your things away." ”

The girl said to Lin Si with a reverent face, "Boss, you are a native human, and you know the importance of this body to human beings, so I think you will definitely understand how great this thing I have done." ”

Gu San lit a cigarette again, she held the lighter, turned her head sideways and looked the girl up and down, "Then, use your original body to run outside the fortress to give food to the zombies?" ”

These kids knew at a glance that they hadn't experienced any life-and-death threats, and the imps born in the fortress might only have seen how humans fight zombies on TV. Of course, born in this era, they are too far away from the time when humans were threatened by zombies and lived in fear all day long. So far back that they take for granted the success of humans in fending off zombies.

Also, most of the survivors who have gone through the ordeal are now aging and modified to become prosthetic people in order to survive, and they happen to be standing opposite this group of young people.

The young girl didn't expect Gu San to raise her head and say to herself, "We don't need to worry about zombies. The exoskeleton weaponry gives us more than the ability to resist this group of brainless monsters. ”

"Yes, are you sure?"

The girl was obviously met with such doubts when she was doing this, and she said unhurriedly, "It's completely different now than it used to be, and humanity is no longer alone after leaving the fortress." We have weapons, we can protect ourselves, we can guarantee that we will not be threatened by zombies again. We don't need to be afraid of that anymore. ”

"You don't know what fear is, so you have the impunity to ridicule those who choose prosthetics." The lighter rotated and lit repeatedly in Gu San's hand, and the flames scurried in front of her from time to time, she sneered and scolded in a low voice, "A group of people saved a group of grandchildren, and turned against themselves." Damn, you stinky boys were beaten to the point of falling out of your teeth decades ago. ”

The girl shook her head, "You see, you are always angry, you are swearing, the world is full of hatred, you don't love yourself, you don't love the world, how can you live happily?" ”

Gu San looked at this little girl as if she was looking at rare animals. Lin Si was already about to laugh out loud behind the bar, Gu San turned his head and glanced at him, "This is your guest, you can solve it yourself." I'm here for a drink. ”

Lin Si waved his hand at the girl, "I'm sorry, my guests don't welcome you, I think you better leave." ”

"I can also be your guest."

"That's at least to consume."

"Give me a glass of lemonade."

Lin Si spread his hands, "I'm sorry, lemonade is not consumption." ”

The girl's expression finally showed a slight embarrassment, "That...... What about milk? ”

Gu San sat on the side with a helpless expression, "Little sister, this is a tavern, the boss prepares lemonade is already the biggest compromise, if you want to drink milk, go to the supermarket next door to buy it." ”

How old is this little girl? Fifteen years old? Sixteen years old? You probably don't even know what it's like outside the fortress. Lin Si finally gave her a glass of lemonade and handed it to her. Gu San sat aside smoking a cigarette and watched the girl reach out for Lin Si to scan her paid wrist. The scanning gun in Lin Si's hand made a "dripping" sound, and he was very straightforward, "Little girl, your balance is insufficient." ”

The girl's face turned red instantly, maybe she was used to being questioned about her beliefs, and she could face the inquiries of others without changing her complexion, but this kind of subtle details in life can still make such a young man embarrassed for a while and don't know what to do. She said, "It's ...... It's just a glass of lemonade, which you said was free. ”

"Yes, so I only charge you 1 yuan, which is cheaper than the eggs sold outside, and you don't even have this money, little girl. Go back and stop handing out flyers from me. ”

Gu San looked at this girl, her immaturity, ignorance and youth slightly dispelled the unhappiness she had brought her before, and she raised her eyes with Lin Si, "Forget it, forget me, I'll invite her." ”

The girl was holding the leaflet in her hand, pursing her lips, and did not speak. She looked at the burnt leaflet in front of Gu San, and the moment Lin Si handed her lemonade, she finally reached out and took the leaflet back, and didn't say anything more about primitivism.

The group of people who engage in religion and belief sometimes fall short of being in line with reality, and "poverty" should sometimes be the most realistic part of the blow. The girl didn't even drink the lemonade, lowered her head and turned around and walked out of the tavern. Lin Si leaned on the edge of the bar, looking at the back of the little girl, he was patient, and took a closer look at the girl's dress.

"It should be a resident of the lower city street, the clothes are old enough and old enough, not like the new clothes produced in the past two years."

Gu San asked him to add some more wine to the cup, "Do you think I care who she is?" ”

"Recently, there have been more and more primitives in the fortress, and sometimes I think this contradiction is not just because of the legacy of the war, do you know that many factories nowadays have a monopoly on all the work that requires physical strength to do?" Lin Sinu pointed to the drinking women next to him, they were still here, but the previous group of primitivists were gone, "They have been working in the mine for quite a few years, and they often come to me to drink after work." Prosthetic modifiers will always have an advantage over the original humans, in terms of physical fitness and five senses, these things are not explicitly stated, but all employers will prefer those with outstanding abilities and convenience at the same price. Some of the factories are just outside the fortress and can be attacked by zombies at any time, and purebred humans simply can't handle that. And now that the society is gradually stable, people are also pursuing welfare protection, and if there is an accident due to work, the factory must also pay compensation. ”

"Of course, capitalists will choose to save money and trouble."

"So this creates barriers for a new generation of young people in terms of employment. That's why there were so many newborns in this group of marching primitives. You can think that they are all stupid, they don't think about the past history at all, and say that human beings can choose the original posture of human beings," Lin Si poured himself a glass of wine, "but in fact, they do this just to fight for more job opportunities, to put it bluntly, I don't believe that anyone is preaching these out of faith, in the final analysis, everyone is just gathering for profit." ”

"But I think the girl just now was convinced of this."

"There are very few people in the slums who can afford to have a prosthetic body. If they had the money, maybe they would have done the modification a long time ago. They can't do it, so they can only hate, and finally extract the most reasonable set of theories from hatred to paralyze themselves and convince themselves. This theory is then instilled in the next generation. Let them continue to fight for what belongs to them. Lin Si looked at the direction in which the girl left, "It's a pity, the contrast between strength and weakness is sometimes so stark, especially in the current situation, the city is like a primeval forest, everyone is just desperately running for life." ”

"At least now people can still run around for life, and half of us used to think only about 'survival'. To be able to start marching and propaganda like this at least shows that the surroundings are safe. Gu San shrugged his shoulders, and then he was also a little curious, "So there are a lot of prosthetics here?" So many purebred humans can't find a job anymore? ”

"Prosthetics don't have a majority of the forts here, but they can do two or three times more work than pure-blooded humans. In addition, there are some zombie hunters who often take on some private jobs after retiring from the military. Mercenaries, assassins, thugs for gangsters. ”

Saying this, Lin Si himself couldn't help laughing at himself: "You see, no matter how human society is, it will eventually be full of all kinds of darkness and struggle, and this has nothing to do with whether the war is over or not. If Murong Yuhua knew that the ground was such a mess now, he might regret his original decision. ”

Gu San slowly exhaled the smoke ring, "With what I know about him, he won't." He would rather watch the destruction of humanity in a free society than reject the lifelessness of a dictatorship. ”

"Sometimes I wonder if Sky City's decision is right or wrong. It's a pity that there hasn't been an answer all these years. ”

"I thought you were past the age to choose right and wrong."

"I'm just past the age where I just want to read one answer." Lin Si took the glass of lemonade for the little girl and put the cup in the washstand, "All of us are standing at a certain point in time, and no one knows what the outcome will be. Moreover, after the disappearance of one rule, there will inevitably be other rules, and if not, human society will eventually obey capital and spontaneously form some management systems. There are still classes, there is a clear distinction between the top and the bottom, and there will still be high and low in the community, because we know that resources are always limited, no one can distribute resources equally, and in the end everyone will still fight for an extra resource. ”

"So the war never stops, the struggle never dies. In this world, guns will never disappear, and people will still turn back and attack others after experiencing war. Gu San raised her wine glass, "You and I didn't know this was a shit world for the first day, did we?" ”

Lin Si clinked glasses with her, "To this shitty world." ”
