853 Embassy in Gensokyo (3)
The five envoys secretly discussed Usami Renzi didn't know anything, whether it was the conversation between the diplomatic ambassador in Gensokyo and his wife, the plans between the remaining four deputy envoys were all unknown, and I wandered around the embassy in ignorance.?? ε «δΈ?Chinese (ε «)?? .?8 (8) 1 Z (1) .COM
The overall style of the embassy is a standard outside style, which is completely different from the Gensokyo villa mansion that focuses on greenery and greenery, and the things that outsiders need are not the same as what Gensook people need, electricity, network, and hot water are the basic requirements of outsiders.
A system to maintain hot water in the 24-hour electricity network is essential, and of course there is a unique sewer system within tens of meters underground, and there is also a Dapeng area in the backyard for members of the mission who are good at planting, and a training ground and shooting range that simulates military training.
It's simply a military training base: Hasuko Usami, who followed Uncle Qin through the fragmented world, had such an impression of this embassy, which was very much in line with the traditional embassy setting.
Usami Hasuko was in the small garden inside the embassy, leaning on the trunk of the transplanted tree, staring blankly at the people working in the embassy.
Ability fluctuations.
Usami Renzi, who inherited part of Qin En's time ability, felt the breath of the capable from this group of people, and these men and women who looked inconspicuous were all capable people.
Even those women who 'protect' themselves are all capable.
"Huh?"
Usa saw that Renko suddenly heard a murmur that could not be ignored, and the short brown girl frowned and looked at the origin of the sound, but saw that the black young lady named Aosaki was looking intently at the empty ground.
Her eyes were focused, her eyes focused, and her head tilted slightly to the right, as if someone was whispering in her ear.
"Miss Aosaki, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah, nothing ......"
Facing Usami's greeting from Renko, Aosaki laughed a few times and responded unnaturally.
There is a problem.
It's a pity that Renzi didn't have time to think about it at all, but another female guard suddenly asked, "Miss Usami, where else are you going?"
The topic shifted a little stiffly, and Renzi secretly glanced at Aozaki and the other female guards, but she never saw any clues.
"There's nowhere else to go. Renzi had no choice but to answer honestly, she looked at the room where the ambassador was, and then asked, "When are we leaving?"
One of the female guards thought for a moment and replied, "About four hours later." β
"Four hours?"
So long?
"It will take at least four hours for a few envoys and deputy envoys to take care of things. β
Hearing these words, Rao had been trained by Qin En in the Fragmented World, and she also felt tiredβmainly from the long four-hour wait.
She couldn't jump directly like Qin En, four hours was still too long for her.
"Is there a place to rest?"
Lianzi didn't want to stand here for four or five hours and go to the outside world with a tired body.
Her Uncle Qin once told Lianzi that there were enemies outside, and those who hated Qin En would definitely vent their anger on themselves, so it would be easy to get deflated when they went to the outside world in a tired state.
"Yes. Aosaki interjected: "There is a canteen in our embassy, which is open 24 hours, go there and rest." The female guard kindly suggested.
Lianzi was speechless.
Electricity is a luxury in Gensokyo, and an ordinary store will not be open for too long.
Although the Human Bazaar and the Yokai Bazaar distribute their own traffic during the day and night according to the staggered time difference, there is a large vacuum time in both cases.
The outside world is open 24 hours a day, and the system of express delivery and takeaway running all day is incomprehensible to Gensokyo residents.
Even if Usami Renko has experienced the broken world, she doesn't quite understand these things that outsiders are doing.
It's only been so long since you've been in Gensokyo, and you've come up with these things so quickly?
[It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. γ
Renzi's mind came up with the words she had learned in Hakura Huiyin's class, and it was really perfect to substitute them for the current scene.
People from the outside world are in a state of frugality, although the people here do not complain about the shortcomings of Gensokyo in front of the lotus seeds, they will naturally try their best to make up for those things that are not in Gensokyo but are common sense in the outside world.
But it's not good to stand here, the whole embassy is very cold, and it's hard to occasionally look at it.
Although she didn't know what the ambassadors and deputy envoys said, she could still observe that everyone except her own guards was hiding from her own business.
"Then let's go to the cafeteria and rest for a while. β
After half pushing and half pushing, Usami Renko went to the cafeteria set up for insiders in the embassy.
The location of this canteen is in the embassy building, and the architectural style of the entire canteen is very similar to those school canteens that Uncle Qin saw in the broken world, which is very down-to-earth (rustic), and it is not the same style as a serious embassy at all.
The color is simple and plain, with white as the main tone...... The tables and chairs are in the style of the university cafeteria, and since it has just started, the entire cafeteria is very clean, and you can see the busy figure in the kitchen at a glance at the door, almost completely transparent.
It wasn't meal time, so there weren't many people in the cafeteria, and only Aosaki and another girl were the female guards, and the rest were outside.
More than a dozen windows are in a state of no one, only one looks like a grocery store (city) is being operated, Lang Lin's goods are placed there, and a woman in casual clothes is sitting inside, hanging her head and looking at the small video on her mobile phone with a focused expression.
Aosaki and the other female guard didn't get too close, and Renko walked into the small grocery store alone.
This small market (grocery store) is not much different from what she has seen in the Broken World - it looks like this from a distance, but when she gets closer, Usami Renko realizes that there are so many items on it, and none of them have a price on them.
"Don't you need any money for these things?"
"Of course not money. β
The woman who was sitting next to her and watching a small video said.
The woman paused the video and raised her head to look at the lotus seed.
The woman appeared to be about twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in very casual casual clothes, unlike the formal uniforms of other embassy staff, with shoulder-length hair and a healthy wheat skin.
"Hello, Miss Usami. β
She greeted the lotus seed warmly.
"You know me?"
"Of course I do. The woman pointed to Aoizaki, who was not far away, "The whole embassy knows about you." β
Hearing these words, Lianzi was a little embarrassed.
She's not used to being in the limelight.
"All for free?"
In order to eliminate the inexplicable embarrassment in his heart, Usami Hasuko took the market without a price tag and pointed to the items on the shelves to change the topic
"In a way, it's free, but they're not infinite. The woman pointed to the items on the shelves and said, "These things have a fixed amount for each type of each person per day, and they can be collected according to demand." β
Usami Renko can only literally understand the system of receiving and supplying according to need, but she has never seen the rules of actual operation in Gensokyo, so that the girl instinctively feels that something is not right.
"Why don't you trade with money?"
"Gensokyo's money, we don't recognize it here. β
The woman said helplessly.
"Then how did you build the embassy and procure things?"
"Of course, it's bartering with real money, and some outside items, the trouble is troublesome, but there is no way, after all, Gensokyo's currency has not joined the earth's financial system. β
The financial system is not something that you agree with me and then decide on the fly.
Even though Renzi has never learned financial knowledge, the cultivation of Hu Tao and the adventure of the broken world, combined with the concepts learned in the temple house of Kamishirasawa Huiyin, know that this is a very serious matter.
It's embarrassing.
Usami Hasuko is not a person in the embassy, and the goods that others in the embassy can take at will according to their needs, Hasuko is not qualified to take them.
The woman in front of her saw through the embarrassment of Usa seeing lotus seeds, and said disapprerovingly: "Don't worry, I'll treat you, you can eat whatever you want." β
"Huh, is this okay?"
"Yes, yes, I rarely buy these things, what cold drinks and pastries you want to eat, just take them yourself. β
The woman said with a smile.
After all, Hasuko has no way to resist this temptation: the cream pastry placed in the cabinet and the ice cream drink that is impossible to see in Gensokyo attract the attention of the girl, and Hasuko has already experienced how delicious these things are in the Broken World.
A bunch of cold pastries and drinks were placed on the table, the female guard stood not far away, and Lianzi and the young proprietress sat facing each other, and the two enjoyed the dessert in front of them.
"Thank you for your hospitality. β
"You're welcome, it's all free rations anyway, and our ambassador has made an agreement with Gensokyo management that new goods come in every once in a while. β
The wheat-skinned proprietress smiled gently, and then pushed a fresh, slightly warm pastry in front of the girl.
"Come and have a taste, I just made it. β
"Hmm......" the girl responded shyly.
After becoming an 'adult',Usami Renko can't fully get used to her current body.,After losing Lori's advantage in selling cuteness, she often falls into various passive situations in terms of communication.γ
"I'm older than you, can I call you a little sister?"
"Hmm......" Although he agreed, Lianzi's face was still a little difficult, "However, you ......"
"You can call me Sister Qian. The woman said with a smile.
Fortunately, the proprietress is easy to speak, and after exchanging words in a few words, she let go of her personality a little under the irresistible gentle hospitality of the proprietress and is no longer so restrained.
After letting go of some restraints, Usami Renko saw the left side of the young lady sitting across from her and inviting her to dessert and pastry: there was a particularly hideous scar on the left side of her face, which was covered a small part of her shoulder-length.
On the left side of the young lady's face, there was a huge burn that was hard to ignore, and an ugly scar covered almost half of the left side of the face.
What could have been a sign of her face was ruined by that horrible scar, making her whole body look slightly hideous.
"Sister Qian, your face ......"
"Oh, it's okay, it's all from the past. β
"Previous wounds?"
"Yes, attacked by a bunch of bad guys...... The scar left after nine deaths, alas, is already a blessing to survive, this scar is nothing"
Usami Lianzi immediately sensed the strange power of the woman surnamed Qian.
β...... Sister Qian, are you a capable person?"
"Yes, the able, our entire embassy is full of capable. β
Not every capable person is born a strong fighter in battle, and the vast majority of those with awakened abilities are only thinking about changing their current predicament.
Strong as Jin Shui, before awakening her ability, she was just a female college student who liked swimming, and after awakening her ability, she just wanted to use her ability as a hole card to participate in sports and become a professional athlete.
It wasn't until she joined the Order and was ambushed by the enemy that she learned how to use her abilities.
Everyone understands the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace, but those who can put it into practice are always in the minority.
Even though the popularity of the ability is very high, the people who can truly realize the value of their ability are only a few, and Qin En, who is a strong ability, was ambushed by the ghost king Jinluo when he first awakened, and he was born and died several times before slowly transforming into a long man.
The horrific scar on the face of the woman who called herself Sister Qian was the price paid during that time.
"Forget it, let's not talk about those bad things. β
Sister Qian smiled bitterly and revealed the matter.
Sister Qian didn't talk too deeply, and Lianzi was embarrassed to break the casserole and ask to the end.
"Speaking of which, Usami little sister, you've been watching the museum for a long time, right? What is your impression of us [outsiders]?"
Sister Qian asked curiously.
"Uh......" lotus seeds are a little difficult.
"It's okay, just say whatever you want. Sister Qian said with relief.
Although there are terrible scars, Usami Renko feels that the woman in front of her has no malice towards her, and she is very kind.
Safe, no danger, no malice.
"Then I'll just say it, Sister Qian......"
No vomiting, no pleasure.
was arranged by Uncle Qin to go to the outside world, and followed a group of people he didn't know here, and Lianzi also held back a lot of words in his heart.
"Very cold. β
Indifferent.
Yes, indifference, lotus seeds feel such emotions from outsiders.
"Apathy?"
The ambassador leaned over to listen to the conversation in the cafeteria, chewing on the words that the girl had spoken.
"Apathy?"
The ambassador was impressed by Usami Renko's impression.
This girl is by no means a passionate person, and her judgment of outsiders is only that she has a unique worldview as a native of Gensokyo no Sato.
It must be known that the best level of the environment in Gensokyo is only in the eighties of the last century (individual), ordinary people can not use the computer network at all, and it is even very difficult to even have hot water and electricity 24 hours a day.
Usami Renzi is the heir of Mr. Qin En, and she is an adopted daughter, and Mr. Qin takes a fancy to her, but she is an adopted daughter, and before she became an adopted daughter, Miss Usami was just an ordinary resident of Renzhiri.
During the time that I was stationed in Renori, the secretary also made a point to inquire about Miss Renko, and her experiences and her past were all sorted out and put in a report in front of Mr. Ambassador.
Usami Renko had lived in the human world for decades before she met Qin Eun, and many people remembered the kindness and warmth between the village dwellers and their neighbors in the last century, which was nothing more than an act of huddle in a primitive, backward, and poor world.
During the time that I was stationed in Renori, the secretary also made a point to inquire about Miss Renko, and her experiences and her past were all sorted out and put in a report in front of Mr. Ambassador.
Usami Renko had lived in the human world for decades before she met Qin Eun, and many people remembered the kindness and warmth between the village dwellers and their neighbors in the last century, which was nothing more than an act of huddle in a primitive, backward, and poor world.
Ancient human beings maintained their ties in the form of clans and tribes when they had not yet fully evolved, and in that case the natural neighbors were particularly enthusiastic: because they alone could not bear natural disasters and dangers, the knowledge of a poor peasant in the countryside in ancient times was not even as profound as that of a junior high school student in today's information age, and although a graduate who lived in a simple place was consciously very bitter, it was countless times better than the countryside hundreds of years ago and thousands of years ago, and even the ancient nobles could hardly imagine hot water and the Internet twenty-four hours a dayγ
ββAlthough the great nobles can support this kind of extravagant consumption, in terms of cost performance alone, it is necessary to give the ancient nobles a chance to exchange, and as a high-ranking nobleman, they are naturally interested in this kind of cost performance. The only difference is that modern people can't trample on the same people as themselves to get some satisfaction like the ancients, but those who envy the style of the ancient aristocratic literati forget that their class was the type of 'you are also worthy of the surname Zhao?' in ancient times.
Even in the current information age, it is difficult to accumulate wealth, break through the current weak class, in ancient times, it is reduced to cattle and sheep, if you take modern knowledge and gold finger to travel to ancient times, it is pure hooliganism, it is better to directly drop the golden finger in the modern world, to collect property to buy, buy a small island, buy a private jet, become an upper-class person, isn't it still beautiful?
"The older the better, the simpler, hehe. The ambassador sneered and muttered to himself.
For this sentence, he can only hehe.
Any modern person who is well aware of the filthiness between neighbors and relatives, and thinks that the past is good, but it is just people's irrational beautification of the memories of the past, forgetting the mental and economic pressure of bullying the weak between clans and neighbors and chewing their tongues behind their backs.
In ancient times, the demand for social interaction naturally shifted to places such as Weibo and Facebook, according to the same class, in an era when farmers began to use WeChat, breakfast aunts began to use electronic transfers, just in terms of connections, modern people have exploded countless times the ancient people of the same class as them, and their ideological consciousness has naturally improved I don't know how many times.
"Ambassador, are we overkill?" the female secretary said.
"Overkill? No, it's good now. β
The Ambassador did not agree with the Secretary's idea.
"Usami Renzi is not a person who grew up in our world, and in such a poor and backward place, this person who is protected by the strongest ability cannot be compared with ordinary second ancestors. β
For the entire mission, it is much better to make Usami Renzi have a cold impression than to accidentally cause Qin En's hostility and Renzi's own disgust, the lesser of two evils, Usami Renzi's relationship with the outside mission is just a polite, distant, and mutually exploitative relationship, but it is naturally a good thing for both parties, and sometimes it is more relaxed to be purely businesslike than to involve too much.
"There is no need to take risks, keep it as it is, and sometimes, indifference is not a bad impression. β
The third more is finished, 3/3, you can rest, rua
