When Russell heard this, he subconsciously looked out the window.

Smoke and dust filled the starless night sky, and the gray-white moonlight was dim like dust.

At this time, Russell noticed that the gray full moon was as full as a disc at this moment.

“…… Today is a full moon. ”

Russell muttered.

The color of the moon is like the gray and white of the camera when you take pictures of the moon with the black and white filter of your mobile phone. The neon light reflected in the splendid city that never sleeps on the ground makes the full moon dim and transparent, as if it is about to disappear.

That's when he remembered...... It's been a long, long time since I looked up at the moon.

There is no custom of moon viewing in this world. After all, the grayish-white, almost transparent moon really didn't have much to look at.

In other words, the people of this world have never developed the habit of raising their heads and glancing at the gray dome.

At this moment, the smoke is still wafting out the window. Through the dim moonlight, you can barely see the delicate texture of these gunpowder smoke that is visible to the naked eye but gradually dissipating, gradually being evacuated in the air.

Despite the well-sealed windows, Russell seemed to smell the smoke in the air.

"The dragon's ban...... Is it okay not to comply? ”

Russell didn't look back, just stared at the smoke that had not yet dissipated: "It is the order of the 'dragon' to demand the destruction of weapons and the prohibition of hot weapons to kill people." ”

"To be precise," said 44's voice coldly, "the dragon's true constraint is that 'no one is allowed to initiate or participate in a killing operation of any kind of scale using a mass-produced thermal weapon.'" In this ban, the board of directors of each head office has oversight responsibilities only to the public. Because of this, the board of directors of each air island has a slightly different level of specific implementation. This can be adjusted to a certain extent according to the management ideas of each air island.

"Just as in Sogo, Taoyuan and Happiness Island, the mere discovery of a private person in possession of a hot weapon can lead to an unconditional sentence of expulsion, but the company can also choose to ignore it; In Sun Island, Holy Blood Island, and Tongshen Island, civilians are allowed to possess dangerous weapons, and there are even shops that legally sell weapons. Merely holding a weapon at the same time is tantamount to voluntarily giving up the right to be protected. Specifically, if an individual is in possession of a weapon of the level of danger that can take the life of another person even an untrained child, and dies in a fight, the murderer is not guilty if he does not possess a weapon of the same level.

"This is the 'consensus on the right of self-defense of the weak' that we have implemented in Mishima. That is, the possession of a dangerous weapon is still not considered guilty in itself, but the possession of a weapon is equivalent to a renunciation of the personal rights protected by consensus, and anyone can kill him.

"If you don't understand, you can also understand it this way: all civilians on our empty island are equally protected by the 'consensus', and consensus is the common will of all civilians on the empty island. The power to protect each person comes from the will of all people and in turn serves all individuals. And if you don't trust the protection of the consensus, you choose to use your own power and violence to protect yourself, which is tantamount to breaking away from this consensus. As a result, consensus loses the need to continue to protect the individual and remove it from the group. ”

Russell looked back and saw that even though she wasn't looking at Number 44, she was still bowing deeply to herself.

She maintained a bowing posture, and her voice was flat and clear: "The civilian armed security drone developed by the hotel can only be connected to the hotel's wireless network, so it can only be used in the vicinity of the hotel; At the same time, the predictive security defense equipment held on the UAV is not detachable because it is integrated forging; The logic of the drone's behavior is completely controlled by the hotel's pre-set program, and there is no possibility that it can be used by any individual.

"Because of this, it can be considered security equipment by the dragon. Because it's essentially just a slightly smarter grid wall. Given the preciousness of the status of travelers here, it is understandable to apply more aggressive security strategies. ”

…… Smart grid?

Is it the kind of smart grid that uses radio equipment and webcams to monitor the perimeter for 15 kilometers and blasts the enemy to pieces with smart cannons and howitzers when it spots?

Even Russell was stunned for a moment when he heard this somewhat outrageous remark. Not to mention the ringo next to it.

Although Ringo also belongs to the "three empty islands where guns are allowed", she definitely didn't realize what the truth revealed by No. 44 meant-

Number 44's attitude towards the "guests" is really too honest.

She hides no secrets. And from these words, in fact, a lot of information can be disassembled.

Regardless of the dragon's attitude...... The reason why some of these three islands allow people to carry guns is because Holy Blood Island, Sun Island, and Tongshen Island have stronger killing intent towards the people.

It's no wonder that it's not like Happiness Island, where a large number of uncensored people have accumulated and are active in the lower city.

It is precisely because of the ban on the possession of hot weapons, but it is not completely blocked, that once the pressure of people reaches a certain level, it will be immediately vented.

- And as long as they choose "catharsis", they will be killed. Therefore, it is not easy to form a group and form a force......

"This star really wants to retire"

To put it simply, it is precisely because individuals have the ability to act that they do not choose to act in a group way. After all, once a group is formed, it must abide by the discipline within the organization, and there will inevitably be power classes and gangs within the organization. A lot of things can become less pure......

Even if you play a game, many people don't want to join any guilds - not necessarily because of how social fear the player is, but more because of the trouble. Because they can predict that once they add a guild, they will probably end up arguing or fighting. Rather than being tired, it's better not to contact it at the beginning.

And if this is a game, one person can also play it well without missing any gaming experience; On the contrary, adding guilds will slow down their efficiency, and how many people will still choose to form or join guilds?

Absolutely, but not too much.

- This is the decision of Tongshen Island.

They made it possible for ordinary people to buy guns normally, that is, they gave everyone the ability to act independently.

Whether it's shooting an enemy, or trying to get rid of your boss or rival...... If you think about it, you can do it.

Even if you are crazy and want to take revenge on society, you can indiscriminately attack passers-by on the street, or attack elementary schools.

At the same time, it's much easier for companies to get rid of a person.

As long as you find a way to sell or give someone a gun, there is a reason to kill them as a matter of course......

And when smart people finally come along and want to destroy powerful enemies that they can't reach, such as the head office, or the Hotel Tartarus, there is no one to work with.

Because they all have a clearer "enemy" and also have ideas and methods to solve the enemy.

And after killing the enemy, the hatred and resentment accumulated in their hearts were relieved a lot.

The so-called one blow of strength, and then three times and exhaustion. The few remaining courages may not make them choose to continue to be the enemy of the head office...... After all, people are always short-sighted. The enemies that are close at hand have been dealt with, and if the Enforcement Department doesn't catch them, they hope they can return to their original comfortable lives.

INTERVIEWER At that time, how many people will be able to stand up and declare the head office an enemy?
