The owner's heartfelt words made the other two men in the car laugh subconsciously, and after Han Le finished laughing, he said to the man again: "That's very simple, can you just go and get a disease that will die in five years." ”

"How can it be that easy?" The driver said energetically, "A friend of mine who lives in Beijing, after the new hibernation method came out, in order to get a serious illness and pass the review, he used all kinds of tricks, made a nail at home, rusted it, bought a sheepdog, and let it bite ...... He also asked me if AIDS counted, and if I did, he would definitely come to me and ask for blood. It's not strange for you to say that if you don't want to get sick, you can get it if you don't care, and if you want to get sick, you can't get it......"

"But the new hibernation method is now stricter, if the disease is found out that you got it on purpose, it is still useless, it is counted as suicide," the owner of the car said, "just like the insurance company, fine." ”

"The government doesn't mean to harm you," Su Pei felt a little strange, "What's so good about hibernation?" ”

"You're still young now, of course you don't think," the man smiled, "When you pass 40, I see if you're in a hurry, and you'll become a little old man if you drag it out for a few more years...... Just after the age of 25, he said that he was too old to look at it," he said, the owner paused, and said to Su Pei in a low voice, "I'll report something to you, there are at least seven or eight women in our building, and they secretly built a freezer in the basement, saying that it was a fresh meat warehouse, with pork outside, and there were big living people inside—they could really bear it, and lay down with pigs for a few years......"

Su Pei didn't have the heart to listen to his revelations, but he still patiently accosted him, while talking, the original dense traffic on the highway began to become sparse, although the side of the highway still looks like an urban belt, but it is no longer like the kind of city center behind, so "post-modern", now they see the scenery is very similar to the city in the past impression, but the design style of some buildings is slightly exaggerated, on the side of the highway, there are also a lot of temporary parking spots, many people are holding a red sign in their hands waiting on the edge of the parking point- Looking carefully at the content displayed by those red signs on tablets (screens) in this era, Qiao Yiyu whispered to Han Le that this meant that he was in a hurry to hitchhike.

There are a lot of cars out of the city stopped at the parking point, after many people went up, more people gathered over, and the owner couldn't help but speak: "I was afraid of hibernation and ran, almost just woke up, and as a result of the war in the city, I wanted to run out, but the account was frozen, so I could only hitchhike." As he spoke, several more passenger vans, which looked larger than the bus, stopped there, almost emptying the men.

"There's no black car right now." Han Le didn't speak, just wrote on his clothes.

Qiao Yiyu glanced at him, and the answer appeared on his arm after a while: "The policy has long been changed, cars are not uncommon in this era, but a burden, personal vehicles need to be maintained every year, the cost is not small, now the cars are autopilot, taking a taxi is not much different from driving a private car, taxis are more convenient, private cars just prepare a parking space for a lot of money." ”

The two of them were chatting in the front, the two of them were chatting in the back, and the atmosphere was almost settled like this, Qiao Yiyu was worried that the siege troops would block the traffic and check all the vehicles going out of the city, but this situation did not appear, and he didn't even do a routine check on all the vehicles through the public transportation control system - Qiao Yiyu knew that this must be the government army in this offensive very smoothly, they don't have to worry so much about themselves, they were wanted before, maybe they just made a look for the anti-government * government army, It means that they didn't take care of themselves, they were going to run...... Politics, to be honest, Qiao Yiyu really feels that getting involved in this field is the biggest mistake he made since he came here, in the eyes of the ancients, they are too "naïve" in the future.

The road conditions are getting better and better, the speed is getting higher and higher, after getting on the highway, the car began to accelerate spontaneously, within a few minutes, it rose from seventy or eighty yards in the urban area to more than 150, this speed looks outside the window, and can already feel some danger, but it seems that the owner and Qiao Yiyu have adapted to this speed, and the speed has been mentioned to be close to 200, when Han Le felt a little panicked in his heart, they still looked as usual.

When the three of them came out, it was the second half of the night, and when they were far away from the place of right and wrong in Ningzhou City, after the initial tension gradually subsided with the distance, the three of them also fell asleep, but they all had a tacit understanding, they did not sleep together, but the three of them took turns to sleep, Su Pei and Qiao Yiyu, at any time to ensure that one person was awake - it was a pity that they didn't go to be robbers, so professional.

At noon the next day, the car stopped in the parking lot of a roadside supermarket, Su Pei put on makeup, and went to the store with the owner to buy some food, of course, it was the owner who paid - Su Pei is now very familiar with him, and promised to give him his police gun for self-defense when he left, and there was no problem with rubbing him for a meal. Han Le and Qiao Yiyu went to the public toilet next to the supermarket to solve their physiological problems, Han Le originally thought that he should be able to have a delicious meal when he came back, the instant food in the supermarket in this era tasted very good, but next to the car, he only saw the car owner and Su Pei with depressed faces.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Yiyu asked.

"That boss is anti-hibernating," the owner looked unhappy, "and he won't sell me anything when he sees what is behind me." ”

What the owner said was actually quite light, Su Pei went in with him just now, and before he entered the door, the young shopkeeper inside walked out with a sign, which was the kind that Han Le had seen: "The bear and the dog have to go inside!" Su Pei didn't know what this signboard meant, and he looked at Le, and the owner explained to him that he was the bear on the signboard - at the same level as a dog, he was so angry that he almost didn't take out his gun directly. In 2013, this was no different from pointing at the nose and scolding, but in 2073, this sentence can only be regarded as a quotation or a misquotation - the semantic background of the word has long changed, but in the eyes of people in this era, it is only a "euphemism".

"There's no other store around here?" Han Le wondered.

"No, the boss said that there is only one shop in this village," the owner said and suggested, "or drive a few more kilometers to see, there should be ...... ahead You ......"

When he spoke, the owner of the car looked at Qiao Yiyu in a daze, and then turned his head to look at Han Le, and it didn't take two seconds for him to react: "You are ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Su Pei put a gun against his waist in the back: "Since you recognize it, be careful when you speak." ”

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding......" The owner hurriedly argued, reached into his pocket with one hand, took out a polar bear badge and showed it to Qiao Yiyu, this badge was a little different from what I had seen before, it had a small red bar that was not too obvious at the position of the bear's paw, "Mr. Qiao, my name is Ren Bin, before hibernation, I have always supported you, I have also participated in the anti-hibernation parade before, and I have heard you speak...... It was only in the past few days that I found out that you were wanted, and I didn't expect to meet you here......"

Qiao Yiyu waved at Su Pei, signaled to put down the gun, and then smiled at him: "A misunderstanding, we were also dealt with." ”

"I can understand, I can understand." The man named Ren Bin nodded again and again, and subconsciously glanced back at the door of the store, "In this way, let's go to the front to find a store to buy." ”

Ten minutes later, the car arrived at another village, Han Le saw an abandoned "charging station" on the side of the village, just like the charging station he had seen in 48 years to charge electric cars, only a little bigger, it seems to be specially used for cars, but the cars of this era seem to be no longer used, so there are only rusts left, there is a big supermarket opposite this charging station, two large trucks are unloading at the door, blocking the signboard, Su Pei and that Ren Bin stopped the car, and then went around to the back of the car- But just after walking back, Su Pei made a bear pounce grimace to Han Le and Qiao Yiyu in the car in the distance-the meaning couldn't be more obvious, there was still that sign at the door of the store.

"It's probably those anti-hibernation organizations," Ren Bin said, "and that's what we used to do...... It is estimated that this is the case all the way down, and now more than half of the stores in the country are like this. ”

"Why don't we tell them we're not hibernating," Han Le suggested, "will they still recognize us?" ”

"They will know as soon as they swipe their ID cards when they buy something," Ren Bin obviously knows a lot about these methods, "they will definitely check your Internet records, if you don't let them check, they won't sell you things, if there is a long gap in between, it will be difficult for you to explain." ”

Han Le was stunned: "I said I can't go online?" ”

Ren Bin laughed: "In this world, are there still people who don't go online?" Even if you say it, I'm afraid no one will believe it, and even if there are people like that, most of them will know by looking at their age. ”

I had no choice but to keep going, okay, fortunately, the sandwiches I brought out didn't throw away just now - in fact, Han Le was going to throw them away when he saw the supermarket, and it had been put away for three or four days, but it had been kept in the refrigerator during the period, and it didn't seem to be bad, Han Le and Su Pei were going to eat it, Qiao Yiyu was not hungry, Ren Bin didn't eat it until he was killed, and he put it for three or four days! It seemed to him to be no different from what was in the trash.

But the price of not eating is hunger, the next way, they saw the store door hung anti-hibernation signs, the word "humorous" is the spoof cartoon of the bear and the dog just now, a little more direct to say that the store will not entertain hibernators, and finally some are the most direct: "Just crawled out of the ice pile, get acquainted and roll!" ”

"This doesn't comply with consumer protection laws, does it?" Seeing one or two is accidental, three or four is curious, but after seeing more than a dozen or hundreds of stores, he feels that this phenomenon needs to be reflected, "These stores don't have the right not to sell, right?" ”

"That being said, you can sue him," Qiao Yiyu explained, "Their behavior is organized, there is a special team of lawyers, even if they win, it is only a penalty, no one cares, these organizations will also have special funds to subsidize this fine...... In fact, hibernation groups are now using this method to fight it, such as resolutely not investing in anti-hibernation groups, urging the government to curb this phenomenon, and increasing the cost of their activities......"

"Why do I sound like the underworld? There are also specialized lawyers......" Su Pei was surprised, "As far as I know, some underworld societies were not so professional at that time, so wouldn't the government crack down on these organizations?" ”

"I have cracked down, but it has not had much effect," Qiao Yiyu added, "This era is different from what you think, the government can do very little, this kind of behavior can only be regarded as a minor violation, not even basic violence is used, and it is not a bad social impact...... In recent years, some legal circles have also discussed that operators should have the basic freedom to choose customers......"

While talking, the four of them saw that the road not far in front of them was blocked, several cars were blocked there, and there were two "super long" buses that Han Le had seen in Ningzhou City before parked on the side of the road, but the reason for the traffic jam was not these two buses, but the crowd of people crowded on the side of the cars.

The intelligence of the autonomous vehicle is very high, and after judging that the traffic cannot be restored for the time being, it immediately pulled over, and the four people got out of the car, Han Le and Su Pei subconsciously came up to see the excitement.

"I'm shutting the door! Our store is temporarily closed! Do you know kanji? In the middle of the road, a young man of twenty-three or four, holding a sign that read "We will not entertain hibernators," yelled at the people around him, and his voice sounded impatient.

"Obviously you closed the store when you saw us getting out of the car, there were other people in the store buying things at the time, what are you pretending!" A woman closest to him shouted at him, "Tell you, we have bought the things in your store today, we will all go in and get them, the money is mine, every penny is a lot of yours, if you have the ability, go and sue me, I will see how the court decides!" ”

"You dare, without my consent, you can be considered a robbery!" The young man struggled forward, and said to the front door, "Block the door for me, and our people will come in a while......

But before he finished speaking, the crowd rushed in, and the store became lively all of a sudden, and after a while, the passengers on the bus came out with a large number of goods, like a group of bandits who had successfully robbed the store, the woman entered the store with the young man and threw her ID card on the counter: "You look at the brush, I don't mind if you brush more." ”

The young man glared at her fiercely, his eyes almost bursting into flames, but he didn't move the card, but spat out a sentence: "Get out, I'll feed the dog!" ”

"You think it's beautiful, let me tell you, if you don't brush it today, I'll go back and ask someone to go to the bank to get cash," the woman said disdainfully, "You think you have the backbone?" Who lacks your two money? Since the store is here, you have to sell it when someone comes to buy something, or you don't open it, do you want me to popularize science with you? ”

The shopkeeper finally brushed it, and the woman walked away with her ID card proudly, leaving only a messy supermarket inside, and a few customers just now surrounded him indignantly to comfort him: "Don't be like these people...... Don't be angry, when you guys were fighting, I'm going to prick their tires and see how far they can go......"

Su Pei and Ren Bin quietly walked up, and Su Pei asked kindly, "Is it still open here?" ”

"Business, business." The shopkeeper nodded. The two of them slipped in as fast as they could, and casually took out a bunch of food, and then Su Pei deliberately pretended to touch his pocket, and said with a regretful face, "I'm sorry, my ID card fell into the car......"

"It's okay," the shopkeeper waved generously, "just when I invited you." ”

When the car of several people drove from behind, and the shopkeeper saw the hibernation equipment behind the car, the shopkeeper found that he was shabu-shabu, chased after the car and scolded: "Be careful of choking to death after eating!" ”

"It's a lot of money," Ren Bin complained a little to Su Pei, "It's a big deal to pay." ”

"Do you think the shopkeeper will sell us if he sees that we are not hibernating?" Su Pei ate in his mouth and said, "Maybe when we are in a gang, we will be beaten." ”

"You say that...... As for it? Su Pei still couldn't figure it out, "In order to fight hibernation, I didn't do business......"

Within a few minutes of driving, they saw two cars on the road in front of them broke down on the side of the road, and a car of people squatted on the side of the road to eat the spoils just now.

"Who came up with these bad moves," After passing, Han Le thought back to what he had seen and heard, and couldn't help laughing, and said to Su Pei, "It can still be organized so well, if this is put in our time, it will definitely start a fight." These people can still argue and talk big things at the same time...... It's so noisy, it's just not to do it. ”

Ren Bin subconsciously turned his head and explained: "Both sides of this conflict will have a video record of the whole process, and whoever does it will suffer and will be detained by the police...... The more the conflict is fierce, the more the other party has to say that he doesn't speak, making the other party seem to be at a loss. ”

"It's really bad, it's insidious," Han Le praised from the bottom of his heart, "this is called the art of struggle." ”

Ren Bin turned his head again: "It's not insidious, this can only be said to be within an acceptable range, with the minimum legal cost to express our true thoughts to the greatest extent." ”

"Maximize the expression of true thoughts with the minimum legal cost!" Han Le repeated, experienced it carefully, and asked rhetorically, "You don't still have a struggle program or something, do you?" ”

Ren Bin turned around for the third time, a little embarrassed and said, "Yes, this is what I am ......"

Su Pei interrupted without waiting for him to finish: "This is to be put in our time, and those who say this must be the crime of disturbing social order and instigating it...... After entering, he was beaten and honest, and now this society is too civilized......"

Qiao Yiyu finally couldn't help it, and the two of them didn't know what to say without speaking, she coughed and said seriously: "I said these words." ”
