Will was originally fond of gambling, and like his good brother who could drink, Will always won more and lost less at the gambling table, and was also a well-known figure in the special district of Dayton.

"Who is that person and where is his home?" Forts grabbed him by the collar and pressed him against the wall.

"The man's name is Will, and he lives down the street in front!" Ma Tsai, who knew Fortes's character, looked frightened, and his legs kept trembling.

"Will! Here, here! ”

Will dragged the young man to run through the rain, and just as his heart was full of confusion and did not know where to go, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Will, come here!" Will heard the sound and saw that the diminutive Alan was lying on the mouth of a pipe, shouting loudly to himself.

"Let's go, let's get over quickly!" Will didn't have time to think about how Alan had returned to his house, but ran over with the young man without saying anything. At this time, Will's heart was full of joy, because no matter what, he saved a life, and this kind of heroic feeling is really good.

"Come and go, life is really short!"

With a sigh, Will looked up and saw Qin Hui, who was wearing blue suspenders and dressed as a migrant worker, lying on his back in the corner of the pipe with a sad face, looking at the young man beside him.

"Man, you're free!" Will looked at Qin Hui on the side, let the rain on his body slip down, and said happily to the young man beside him.

"Freedom! Hehe, I don't need freedom! The young man leaned against the wall behind him, and did not go into the pipe to shelter from the rain, but let the rain fall on him, with a melancholy look on his face.

"What do you mean! If we hadn't run fast, they'd have killed you! You've got something wrong with your brain! It's all your own doing, no one dares to take that much time to the streets! Will looked at the young man in front of him, but he didn't expect him to care at all.

"My name is Henry, Henry Misleton!" The young man named Henry looked at Will and asked softly; "Why did you save me, if I'm not mistaken, we don't know each other!"

"Why! There are so many whys! Will shrugged impatiently and said without thinking; I can't die without help, I can't watch you being killed right under my nose and not be moved! ”

"Huh!" Henry suddenly laughed after hearing Will's words, and asked with some curiosity; "How old are you, I'm talking about your chronological age!"

Will was a little puzzled, but replied anyway; "I'm twenty-five years old, and I'm going to have my birthday in a few days, and I'll be twenty-six!"

"No wonder! Twenty-five is a good age! Henry nodded, then put his hand into his clothes and took out a small tin box containing wine, unscrewed it and took a sip of it, looking motionless at the heavy rain outside.

"I'm one hundred and six years old, and as the people around me continue to die, I feel like my brain is starting to get tired, and although my body doesn't, I still feel powerless!"

Outside, the heavy rain kept falling, and Qin Hui, Allena, and Will were all quietly listening to Henry's story in the small pipe. Will and Allen saw Henry's words as complaints, while Qin Hui listened to his understanding of time.

"One hundred and six years old! That's a lot of money! But I've lived enough, I want to die, I have to die! ”

Henry began to get tired of living day after day, he didn't know what he meant by living, now he just lived for the sake of living, repeating what he had done yesterday day after day, and spending day after day mechanically under the envious gaze of others.

"Man, it's your business to want to die, only a person like you who is from a wealthy background will feel that there is too much time!"

Will said impatiently, and then involuntarily looked down at the form in his hand. Will looked down at his watch with great skill, a common practice for people living in the slums, because they would always look at their watch involuntarily, always fearing that their time would be cleared to zero in the next moment and die.

"Twenty-three hours!"

Henry's eyes swept over Will's watch, and he saw that the young man in front of him who was fiery at heart would die in twenty-three hours if he had no income.

"What is your view of time?" Just when the scene fell into silence, Qin Hui, who had been pretending to be a dead man in the back, suddenly opened his mouth and asked Henry.

"Time is the arbiter's game!" Henry was silent for a while, and then said indifferently; "The arbiters set prices, collect time, and under the manipulation of these capitalists, most but a very small number of people will die. It's just that this time is early and late, so no matter how you work and how you earn time, it is only to postpone the date of death! ”

What do you mean by that? Doesn't it mean that as long as there is a stable job, then anyone can live forever! Will frowned when he heard Henry's words, because his words were not the same as what Will had heard over the years.

"What would you do if you were given a hundred years?" Henry asked in a deep voice at Will in front of him.

"Moving out of the slums, of course, to live in a richer special zone!" Will didn't know why, but he still said what most people thought.

"Yes, everybody wants to live better in the Special Administrative Region and enjoy better benefits and treatments. But what I want to say is that in fact, this is just an illusion, a perfect blueprint planned by the government! ”

Dayton District is scheduled to be hourly, and spending here is also hourly based. There are hundreds of slum districts like Dayton, and above the slums is the plutocratic district, of which Henry is from the new Greenwich district of the plutocratic district.

In other words, if it takes you ten minutes to drink a book of coffee in a slum, you will have to pay a day to drink the same kind of coffee in New Greenwich.

Of course, an increase in consumption represents an increase in income, and a day in Dayton is about 30 hours of work, and in New Greenwich it is about a month.

Many of those who had survived the slums were happy to go to the rich districts, but what awaited them was a new start to their busy lives. Because these people who come to New Greenwich will find a very cruel thing, that is, they can't even buy a house in New Greenwich with the time they have saved up for a lifetime and are proud of.

And in order to put an end to people's hope of immortality, everyone's time will be monitored, and if you live past a hundred years, or have more than two hundred years in your hands, then you will be invited to the rich district, and no one can refuse this invitation. And when you live past 100 years, you will have a new discovery, that is, the original second hand is gone, replaced by a beating based on minutes.

Henry lifted the sleeve from his arm and let everyone look at the minute hand on his arm that danced like the second hand.

"Doesn't anyone want to change this, prices are growing crazy every day, doesn't anyone want to change?" As Henry told Will, his face was at a loss, because there was a huge gap between Henry's words and the education he had received for more than twenty years, and Will's instinct was telling himself, Henry was right.

Will was a big boy who had just come of age, but he had never seen anyone in the slums live past a hundred years old, and most of those who had lived past ninety years old had disappeared, vanished like the wind.

Will looked sluggish, and the cognition he had cultivated for more than twenty years collapsed in a single thought. He was at a loss now, he thought of Pieru in the Relief Hall, and he thought of his mother, who was about to celebrate her fiftieth birthday.

Pieru is also almost ninety years old, and if he is lost in the ghetto, will there be hope? And Will has always wanted his mother to live a better life in the Special District, if Henry's words are true, then can this wish still come true!

"What would you do if you had that much time, lad?" Henry glanced at his watch, and the expression on his face could not tell whether it was sadness or joy.

"Me!" Will couldn't help but glance at his watch again, and then smiled wryly with some lack of interest; "I want to change my habit of always looking down at my watch! And I can promise that I won't waste my time like you, but go back and do something meaningful and figure out why this qiē is! ”

"What an interesting answer!" With Will's affirmative answer, a smile appeared on Henry's face, because no one had ever cared about the reason for this qiē. The rich who have the time to spend all day drinking or earning more time while the poor can't even afford to eat, who would think about these things!

Qin Hui, who had been listening to Will's words, applauded, and he looked at the two in front of him amusedly, because these two people provided him with another insight into time.

"You've had too much wine today, go back to where you came from, Dayton isn't for you. And I, it's time to go home too! Will glanced at Qin Hui on the side, the big things that happened today exceeded the sum of Will's life, so he really didn't have the mood to teach Qin Hui this weird thing anymore.

Will glanced at the heavy rain outside, then patted Henry, who was standing outside, on the shoulder, and rushed into the rain without looking back.

Henry stood motionless, staring closely at Will's back.

"What people fear is not death, but the loss of a qiē after death! If you have nothing to lose, then death is just a friend you haven't seen in years, nothing to be afraid of! ”

Looking at Henry's flickering gaze, Qin Hui, who knew that he was already determined to die, said with a smile, and with Qin Hui's words, Henry also took a deep breath, and after taking a deep look at Qin Hui, he rushed into the rain without looking back.

The heavy rain has been falling non-stop, although Qin Hui doesn't know if Will will become a time chaser like in the movie, but Qin Hui believes that Will's life will definitely become different.

Time went on, and in a blink of an eye, two days had passed. These days are really the same as Alan said, the sky has never been clear, and it has always been rainy weather. In the past two days, Qin Hui still hasn't found a job, and now he is either under the contemptuous gaze of Allen all day long, or waiting for someone else to hire him at the door of the bar.

With the sound of an object falling to the ground, Qin Hui leaned against the stone wall behind him, looking at the sixth passerby who fell in front of him because time had run out.

"It's good to have another one dead!" Qin Hui looked at the dead passerby outside with a gloating expression on her face.

"Uncle, you haven't been looking for a job, why didn't I see you fall to the ground? Didn't you say you didn't have time! For Qin Hui, who was gloating, Allen on the side said while eating a boxed lunch.

"Maybe I'm not damned! It is said that good people do not live long, and those who live for a thousand years are evil! By the way, how does your lunch box taste? Qin Hui glanced at Allen, her gaze lingering on the lunch box wrapped in a plastic bag on the ground.

"Fragrant, so fragrant! But you don't have to think about it, you don't even go to get food together, Alan won't give it to you! Allen looked at Qin Hui on the side dissatisfied, because Allen sent out an invitation again when he received food today, but who would have thought that Qin Hui, who hadn't eaten for three days, actually refused in one bite, as if he really didn't have to eat.

Alan kept eating her own food, and inside was a huge burger, which was golden brown, and in the middle of the burger there was a white sandwich that I don't know what it was.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Just when Allenna, who was afraid that Qin Hui would really starve to death, was thinking about whether to give Qin Hui a lunch box, there was a sudden gunfire outside the pipe, and a young man in a black coat was holding a girl's hand and running quickly in the direction of the pipe.

"Will, it's Will's brother!" Allen poked his head out curiously, only to see that the person running wildly in the rain was Will, who had not been seen for a few days, and in his hand he was holding Qin Hui's black modified gun.

"Boss, stop chasing, we're out of bullets!" The few people chasing behind looked embarrassed, and pulled the boss Fortes, who still wanted to catch up.

"Damn it! How many magazines did he hide! Looking at Will who was running away, Forts roared and threw the empty pistol in his hand to the ground.

The story develops dramatically, as Henry catches up with Will in the rain that day, and he is tired of giving his time to Will and chooses to die smiling.

And Will, who had been in for hundreds of years, was at a loss, and he walked towards his home, not knowing that Fortes had set his sights on him, and set up an ambush in Will's house.

The two sides met unexpectedly at Will's home, and Will, who had the pistol in his hand, just wanted to scare Fords, but he didn't expect that the fake gun in his hand was actually real, and he didn't expect that the gun could penetrate the wall, and still killed one of Fords's men after the bullet passed through the wall.

After the murder, Will took advantage of the chaos of Forts' gang to flee, and fled Dayton that night for fear of Fortes' power in Dayton, and went to New Greenwich to escape the limelight.

It would have been a common occurrence for a new Greenwich face to pop up, but in the Time Keeper's file, Will's message revealed that he was just a pauper and didn't have any winning record, so Will faced an inquiry from the Time Keeper at a gaming table.

Will was given time by Henry, but it didn't go through any legal process, and no one would believe that someone would choose to die and give their time to a stranger.

Will's negotiations with the Time Keeper were unsuccessful, and the Time Keeper chose to arrest him without evidence. He also emphasized that Henry's death was not a suicide, and that the time in Will's hands was stolen by him after killing Henry, and should be confiscated at the Time Keeper headquarters and the suspect Will should be brought back.

Young Will didn't choose to rest on his laurels and wait for the judgment of the Time Keepers. Because he no longer trusts the government after what happened to Henry, and it was raining outside when Henry gave him time, no one saw how this qiē happened, and this qiē was very bad for a boy who grew up in the ghetto.

In this way, Will, who chose to be arrested, kidnapped a girl at the gaming table and returned to Dayton overnight in the stolen police car.

Will was a native of Dayton, with his roots in Dayton, and he couldn't think of any place outside of Dayton's mixed, chaotic ghetto where he could escape the Time Keepers.

There are wolves in front and tigers in the back.

Will was not discovered by the Time Keepers, who had been hiding in Dayton for two days, but instead had Forts' men in front of him when he went out, and the story of the previous scene appeared.

"Will, are you alright! Alan, I see a lot of people chasing you! Looking at the panting Will and the girl with big eyes beside him, Alan didn't care about eating, but turned around Will, carefully observing whether Will was injured.

"I'm okay Alen, those people are gone. By the way, what about the person who gave you this gun? I want to thank him so much, this shot is incredible, he saved my life! ”

Will raised his pistol with an excited face, because only he knew what it did. This gun is amazing, not only can one shot penetrate a wall of twenty centimeters, but he has fired at least dozens of shots along the way, but this gun has never allowed him to change magazines, as if the bullets in it are endless. Whether it's the Time Keepers or the gangsters he just drove away, they've all suffered with this gun.

Time keepers can be counted as cops, and neither cops nor gang members are likely to carry a lot of bullets on their bodies, because they are not fighting a war or selling arms.

No one would carry so many weapons on their bodies, so the gang members who exchanged fire with Will were always at a disadvantage, and they were overwhelmed by Will, who seemed to have endless ammunition.

"Is this the one from Allen? Isn't that a toy gun? Alan looked at the pistol in Will's hand suspiciously, and couldn't figure out how the original toy gun could become real.

"It's not a toy gun, it's true, tell my brother where is the person who gave you this gun, I want to thank him well, his gun saved my life!"

Listening to Will's words, Alan shook his head helplessly and pointed into the pipe.

With Allen's gesture, Will hurriedly looked into the pipe, only to see Qin Hui, who had messy hair and was covered in dirt, was lying on the straw on the ground with Erlang's legs crossed, enjoying his ordinary life.
