As if he suddenly understood the "real" relationship between his boss and the boss's "brother", he silently shut his mouth.

It just so happened that Qi Min didn't want to mess with him. She has been working for two weeks in a row, and she has caught up with the conflict between the grassroots administrator and the brain-like company that has not yet been resolved, and she really doesn't want to care about the black market. After a brief chat with Echiyo, Autumn Harvest took Kaneda back to the old city - and began to harvest in a relaxed manner.

Of course, Autumn Harvest and Kaneda are relaxed, and for ordinary players who are serious about playing games in the old city, this is the result of bad luck again and again empty-handed.

It's just that in the interval between harvesting, when the two of them were standing on the roof of the building, Kaneda asked Qiu Harvest with some hesitation: "The mint candy that Echishi said was leaked out by your R&D department?" ”

"Whew, it was leaked on purpose." Autumn Harvest just replied calmly.

"Is that a poison?" Kaneda asked.

Qiu Harvest sat on the edge of the building and asked, "Do you think tobacco is considered a poison?" ”

"Tobacco is harmful, there's no doubt about it." Kaneda did not hesitate to say, "If the government introduces regulations to ban the sale of tobacco, I will be the first to approve of it." ”

"Whether you approve of it or not, just say that tobacco is a poison?" Autumn Harvest interrupted him.

This time Kaneda had no choice but to admit: "No. However, the degree of addiction to smoking is even greater than that of ordinary drugs, and the standard for whether it is a drug or not is also set by people. ”

"Let's just say it's made by people." Qiu Harvest continued his words and said, "In the real world, in addition to the drugs prescribed by law, there are more addictive things. The refresher - that is, the additive written in the source code of 'mints' - it is just like caffeine, it must be regulated alone, but it is an ordinary ingredient in coffee and cola tea, how can you say that it must be characterized as a poison? ”

It's obvious when you say that. As a functional ingredient of mints, the existence of the cleansing agent itself has two sides. However, due to the fact that the R&D department of the brain-like company added a concentration constraint factor when compiling the source code of the cleansing agent, even if it is added to various foods and beverages in the brain-like body, its concentration will not exceed the theoretical addictive amount. If you want to really eat mints and become addicted, I am afraid that you are more likely to eat yourself into anorexia first.

"So what do you want?" Kaneda still asked, "Now that I have mints, will there be anything else in the future?" Caffeine? Hemp? ”

"Landslide fallacy, yes." Qiu Shu patted him on the shoulder, "I made a mint candy just to open a controllable gap for those who are engaged in drugs." There are so many illegal industries in the real world, and before that, only drug trafficking could not find any correspondence in the brain-like body. Now that there are mints, which are equivalent to a weakened version of drugs, I can satisfy the idea of those punks selling drugs, hoping to reduce the possibility of them selling big hemp in the real world. ”

"That also lowers the threshold for drug trafficking in brain-like bodies, doesn't it?" Kaneda muttered.

"Not much lower." Qiu Harvest defended, and then saw through the telescope that someone was hunting zombies across the four alleys, "There is a big ticket in the direction of two o'clock, can you go?" ”

——

During the lunch break at noon the next day, Ji Lian told Qi fans about "mints".

The brain-like world produces "poisons", which surprised Qi fans. For ordinary people who have not been exposed to drugs, even if it is drug trafficking in reality, although they know that the harm is huge, after all, it is spread through several hands of social media, and they always feel that it has nothing to do with them. But from the perspective of a brain-like company, Qi Fan can't help but feel that this is a big problem.

Qi Fan couldn't help but think about this question repeatedly, but he thought that he would have to hand in the math workbook tomorrow, so he had to concentrate on writing today's questions, and previewed the classical Chinese for the next lesson according to the Chinese teacher's standards, and then hurriedly turned on the computer to contact Ji Lian.

At this time, Ji Lian happened to be online, and Qi Fan directly called him: "Hey, Ji Lian, you said that the 'mints' were smuggled from the St. Petersburg district?" ”

Ji Lian's voice was a little vague, and he seemed to deliberately lower his voice: "Yes, you just ask this?" ”

"And what else can I ask?" Qi Fan said a little anxiously, "What's that...... Painting a thousand generations, is it reliable or not? I believe everything else, but drug trafficking is a big deal......"

"I heard that, too." Ji Lian said, "Next time, I'll ask Hui Qianshi." ”

Qi Mi blurted out and asked, "Are you free today?" ”

"Huh?" Ji Lian was a little surprised, "What, you're going to go to the brain-like body today?" ”

"I ...... I can't go to school at home. "But you can go up for a while if you have time." ”

"How is that possible?" Ji Lian's voice sounded a little unpleasant, "I haven't finished my homework yet, and I'll take an English quiz tomorrow, and my mother has set a password for our family's interface." ”

"Ah......" Qi Fan was a little unwilling, "What about mints?" ”

"What can I do? I'm not a police officer. "Besides, mints were already circulating on the black market before I knew there was such a thing. It's useless for you to be in a hurry now. ”

Qi Fan also knew that what he said was right, but how could she watch the brain-like world being eroded by poisons?

But you definitely can't force Ji Lian to go online to investigate, and Qi fans also know what an uncomfortable experience it is to not finish their homework. She took a deep breath and asked, "Then you have to think of a way, we can't just wait." ”

Ji Lian was silent for a while, and then his voice was slightly amplified: "Do you have any money on hand?" I can ask him again this weekend to see if he can go to St. Petersburg again...... But this money is estimated to be a bit too much. ”

Qi Fan thought about it, she couldn't be sure if that painting Qianshi could be trusted, it was nothing to invest some money for the long-term stability of the brain-like body, but if things were delayed, it would really be fatal.

She said, "We can go on our own." ”

"What?!" Ji Lian's volume finally couldn't be controlled, and he hurriedly pressed it down again, "Just kidding, it's okay to go to St. Petersburg District." ”

"There are no borders in the brain-like body." Qi Fan said.

"But ......" for a moment Ji Lian seemed to run out of words, "St. Petersburg is a Russian-speaking area, and the users are basically foreigners." ”

"You can use a translation plugin." Qi Fan responded to this.

"We're still two...... Minor. Ji Lian had to admit his lack of ability in disguise.

Qi Fan immediately said: "If you're afraid, forget it, lend me an interface, I can go by myself." ”

Ji Lian hurriedly changed his words: "Don't be kidding, I'm afraid of a head." However, after all, he could not agree to go to the St. Petersburg district on the spot, so he had to say, "I'll ask Autumn Harvest and Echiyo first, and this matter will have to be discussed in the long run." ”
