Chapter 395: Relief

Walk towards the counter of the bar.

"Serve the wine, ask for good wine, and then bring her a steak!" Qin Hui knocked on the counter of the bar, pulling the guy who was listening to the music and swaying back from fantasy to reality.

"Sir! I heard you right, you want steak! The tavern guy took a glass of beer in his hand and asked Qin Hui a little suspiciously.

"Yes, steak!" Qin Hui took the wine glass, and the power of magic swirled lightly on the rim, clearing the traces of others on it.

"Sorry sir, we don't have steaks here!" The bartender hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

Qin Hui glanced at Alan who was drooling on the side, and stepped back his sleeve, revealing the watch on it disappreciatively.

"Do you have it now?"

"Yes sir!" The bartender couldn't help but widen his eyes when he looked at the numbers on Qin Hui's watch, and he couldn't stop nodding.

Although there are some strange things about this world, one thing that will never change, that is, interests can make people change the so-called principles. Of course, that's usually the case!

So when Qin Hui didn't hesitate to give the bartender a day as a tip, the ecstatic bartender immediately picked up the phone and ordered an Italian steak for Qin Hui, along with a tomato sauce fries.

"Sir, may I ask why you are here? You know, we don't usually have outsiders coming in here! Allen's mouth was full of oil, and he asked Qin Hui without raising his head.

"It doesn't matter where I go, what matters is where I'm looking for!" Qin Hui took a sip of wine and closed her eyes to savor the long-lost taste on the tip of her tongue.

For Qin Hui's philosophical words, Allen shook his head slightly, and said to the horse's mouth; "You look like a big man, but I don't count the time on your hands, I've only seen this dress on TV! By the way, what about your bodyguards? Why haven't I seen them all the time! ”

"I don't need those things!" Qin Hui shook her head indifferently and whispered; "What do you think time is?"

"Time! That's the time! It took us three days to buy it! Alan glanced at Qin Hui inexplicably, and after pointing to the steak in front of him, he started eating and drinking again.

"Sir, can I ask for another steak?" Allen, who had eaten a few bites, suddenly stopped and said weakly.

"Isn't that enough to eat!" Qin Hui looked at the steak in front of Allen strangely, you must know that this steak weighs a pound, not to mention a child like Allen, even an adult should not want to eat a pound of steak easily.

"I thought, I want to give that steak to my friends, who are all orphans and have never eaten anything so delicious!" Allen looked at Qin Hui uneasily, in fact, even she knew that this request was too much, because such a steak would take three days, and even some small owners who opened a store would not dare to be so extravagant in normal times.

"I promise, orphan, what a familiar word!" Qin Hui glanced at Alan Na and fell into memory, because he knew that Alan Na was also an orphan, and her home was in an abandoned circular pipe.

The world in the Time Planning Bureau is cold and unforgiving, and everyone has to fight for time to make sure they can live longer. The reality is cruel, even in this world of time and everything, the gap between the rich and the poor is still unimaginably large.

The rich are able to eat and clothe themselves, while the poor work hard every day in exchange for the time to survive and the necessities of survival.

In this world, everyone is a minor until the age of twenty-five, and people in this age group are subsidized by the government. Every family with children receives three food allowances per day, and the amount of this food allowance is calculated on the basis of adults.

Under this policy, the most popular thing for people in the slums to do is to have children, because a family with three children can save money on food for adults by relying on government subsidies. You know, this is a time society, and in the slums it represents a lot of additional benefits!

Having children means that there will be a large number of workers in the future, who will be able to produce a large number of luxury jewelry for the rich again, and the whole world will be formed from this and passed down from generation to generation.

Although this may seem wonderful, everyone is constantly consuming time except for the necessary food. It takes 24 hours a day, and a busy day in an ordinary factory is only 25 hours of salary. So many people have to wear multiple jobs in order to survive, and they still have to find an extra job to support themselves after the factory gets off work.

Allena's parents were unfortunate because their factory had closed down, so they had no source of work and could only quietly watch their time go to zero, like many people on the side of the road, on the way to find a job.

There are no people left here, and few people will have the time of the previous month on their watches, except for those who have just come of age. The way they calculate time is minutes and hours, and many people don't have more than six digits in their hands, which means that they have never used the unit of calculation of months in adulthood.

In this way, some people died in their sleep, some died on the way to get paid, and many more died on the way to work! The whole world is cold and cold, full of death and unequal treatment.

Qin Hui kept drinking wine, glass after glass, while reminiscing about her childhood experience, she kept thinking about what time was, and where was the fragment of time that she was looking for! What does the system's phrase that the heart of time hides in the body of those who need them?

"What exactly does time mean! Who do you say needs the most time? The distraught Qin Hui stood up suddenly, and the deep words resounded throughout the bar, and even the noisy music dimmed for a while.

"Who are you?" After being slightly stunned, the drunks in the bar started to make a noise.

"Sir, the situation here is complicated, you better be quiet!" Alan on the side glanced at Qin Hui worriedly, not because he was afraid that Qin Hui would be beaten up by drunks, but because he was afraid that his share of steak would be missing.

"Anyone who can give me a satisfactory answer, I will give him a year, no, ten years!" Qin Hui, who was not worried that she would be robbed at all, didn't pay attention to Allen's words, but raised her arm to reveal her watch in front of everyone.

"Oh my God! That's a lot of nines! That's almost 10,000 years! As Qin Hui revealed his watch, the drunks present were also scared awake and looked at Qin Hui incredulously.

"What does it mean to tell me about time, and who is the person who needs it the most?" Qin Hui's gaze swept over the field and asked in a low voice.

"I'm the one who needs the world the most, my world is only twelve minutes, I just want to die while I'm drunk!"

Just when everyone was slightly stunned, a drunk stood up and said with tears in his eyes.

"You!" Qin Hui swept the drunk in front of him, no matter how stupid Qin Hui was, he wouldn't believe that the person in front of him was the one who needed time the most. After all, there are countless people in this world who die every moment because of time to zero, and if you count it like this, the heart of time is as worthless as a rotten cabbage.

"Go, go, wait to die!" Qin Hui waved his hand in disgust, without the slightest intention of helping him.

"Woo woo...."This drunk man is also a useless thing, not only did he not muster up the courage to snatch after hearing Qin Hui's refusal, but sat on the ground holding his watch and cried.

"Ding Ding Ding.... Good news, don't drink it! Just as everyone was babbling about who needed the most time, there was a sudden knock at the door of the bar.

"It's you, Danifer! What good news do you have? Looking at the young man who rushed into the bar, everyone broke out into good-natured laughter.

"Good news, great news! The almshouse is lit up, and Pieru's almshouse is lit up! The young man spoke quickly, and then ran outside without looking back, and there was a faint sound of shouting.

"Pieru! I knew it was him, he wouldn't leave us alone, I was saved! With the cheers of the crowd, the drunkard, who had been sitting on the ground and crying, struggled to his feet, and walked out of the door while crying and laughing.

"Pieru!" Alan muttered the name, then his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly to Qin Hui; "Sir, I know who is most in need of relief! It's Pieru, the owner of the almshouse! ”

"The people who run the almshouses are the ones who need relief the most! Make no mistake! Qin Hui frowned after hearing Allen's words, because it could be seen from the conversation just now that this Pieru was dedicated to helping others, so how could he need relief.

"Pieru is a big philanthropist, he has several properties in his name, and the time he earns is used to help others, and it is he who brings hope to everyone in this dark slum, so he is the one who needs time the most, because if he has time, he can save more people!"

Allen said quickly, constantly analyzing the meaning of these words for Qin Hui, so that Qin Hui on the side couldn't help but nod secretly. Because a person who can bring hope to others may really be the one who needs the most time.

"Get me another glass of wine, for the best!" Qin Hui's eyes were vague, and she whispered to the bartender beside her.

"Yes sir, please pay for 80 hours!" The bartender said, pulling out a time turner.

Qin Hui stretched out her arm disapprovingly, and drank the beer worth more than three days in two sips, while keeping her eyes on the wall of the bar. If someone can smash the wall at this moment, then they will find that the location that Qin Hui is looking at is a relief hall with the word Pieru written on it.

Chapter 217 Refined, Sewers.

"Come one by one, don't crowd, come one by one!" There was a crowd of people outside the relief hall, Qin Hui looked at these people, and found that there was a light called hope in their eyes that was constantly flickering.

Qin Hui walked briskly, followed the direction of the source of the voice, and finally stood in the long line outside the relief hall, and walked past the philanthropist named Pieru one by one, waiting for the relief to be distributed.

"Here you go, it's five hours!" Pieru, who was handing out relief in the crowd, looked like he was twenty or thirty years old, but those who knew him well knew that Pieru was in his eighties this year, but because time began to beat at the age of twenty-five, his appearance was also fixed at the age of twenty-five.

"Don't leave Hulse yet, say hello to your dad for me!" Pieru looked at the young man in front of him who was about to leave, shook his hand again, and passed it to the young man named Hulse for another three hours.

"Thank you, thank you!" Hulse looked excitedly at the numbers on his watch, although it was only more than nine hours after being rescued by Pieru, but Hulse knew that he and his father should have escaped again if they were not too unlucky.

"Go Huls, I'm good friends with your grandfather, I think your father was the one I grew up watching!" Pieru, who looked to be only in his twenties, said with a smile, but everyone present knew that he was not lying, because the almshouse was built after Huls's grandfather died because of time zero.

"We don't discriminate, we don't have interest, everything in the alms is free. We just hope that more people will live, we still have hope, we can do it! ”

As a social worker shouted, the long line also let out a round of applause. And Qin Hui, who was walking in it, swept his eyes and found that none of the people present had more than two hours of time, which means that if these people did not get relief, most of the people here would die after two hours because of the time to zero.

"Pieru, help me, help me, my time is going to zero!"

Just when everyone was concentrating on queuing, a big man on the street suddenly ran over with a panicked face, and after hearing the big man's words, Pieru's face also changed, and he rushed towards the big man without saying a word.

"Help me, Pieru, please, I don't want to die!" The big man ran quickly, looking at the time on his arm as he ran.

"Karkarov, hold on, you'll be fine!" Pieru ran quickly towards the man, twenty meters, ten meters, five meters,

"Uh...."When there were still more than three meters away, the two of them could turn, only to see the big man named Karkaroff snorted, and his body suddenly fell straight to the ground like a doll without electricity.

"Karkaroff, my friend, it's a good journey...."Pieru looked at Karkaroff who fell to the ground, and saw that the original green watch in his hand had turned red, and the time had been cleared.

In the slums of Dayton, a large number of people die every day, and with the exception of a few who die in accidents or robberies, most die because of time to zero.

Pieru, who is in his eighties this year, has been living here, and death is nothing in his eyes, because they are the most faithful companions of death who live in the shadow of time all year round. No one knows how many people die every day, maybe ten thousand, maybe a hundred thousand, maybe a million, and no one cares about the topic.

Karkaroff is dead, but no one will grieve for him, not even his family. Because everyone lives in the shadow of time, no one knows whether today's Karkarov is tomorrow's self, all you can do is to cherish every day, no, they don't have the concept of day, they can only cherish every minute of themselves, even every second.

"Next.... Next...."The next next word kept popping out of Pieru's mouth, and everyone who received the five-hour relief would run and disappear from everyone's sight, because they needed to use the five hours of the relief to find a job, and then strive to get more time, repeating the days of racing against time day after day.

Qin Hui stood between the teams with a calm face, seriously looking at the eyes of those around her who looked anxious, thinking about the meaning of time for these people.

"Next!" With Pieru's shout, I don't know when Qin Hui, who was originally at the back of the line, actually became the next person to receive relief.

"Hurry up, don't rub it off, don't be shy!" Pieru glanced at Qin Hui's clothes and said eagerly, he has seen too many rich people on the streets and die alone for more than 80 years, although Qin Hui looked good in dress, but Pieru didn't say much.

"What the hell do you mean time?" Qin Hui didn't stretch out her arm like those people, but looked at Pieru indifferently and asked suspiciously.
