Chapter 16: Chaos and Carnival

Happiness Island, Bridge District, Whale Swallow Food Company.

Holding signs, neon signs, or wearing all sorts of oddly shaped clothes, people gather in front of the closed doors of the company. The employees of the company huddled in the company, timidly and nervously looking out of the window. The crowd outside the door was noisy for a long time, but they never set a goal.

- Because strictly speaking, they don't really know what they're gathered here for.

They don't have a grudge against Whale Swallow Foods, and robbing a company in Uptown is a very different crime than robbing a factory in Downtown — the former is captured by ubiquitous cameras and evidenced throughout. Even if Tianen Group dispatches the execution department, there will be no problem.

In other words, they are here to provoke the Executive Department.

It is precisely because they have not been held accountable for their previous robbery of the factory in the lower city...... Or rather, all those who went to the lower city to commit crimes did not suffer any punishment. So they became bold.

Most of these people are students of different stages, different ages, and different schools. A significant number of those few who remain are unemployed vagrants who have just lost their jobs – there has been a wave of unemployment in Shangcheng since about half a year ago, before the establishment of the Brokerage.

If it weren't for the strategy of "cutting the working hours and salary in half and handing over the previous job to two people" implemented by Chairman Sailun not long ago

The number of operators will be more than 30%. Today, that number is 3%.

People who have serious jobs rarely come out to mess around. There is, but no

Mostly - Probably less than 1% of the population, and most of them come from synesthesia

District. And of the 3% of the unemployed, one-third of them are like this. he

That's a lot of people combined.

But this chaotic identity also means that they are enemies of each other

meaning、Even look down on each other。 In the eyes of the "company dogs" and "wage slaves", the unemployed "wild dogs" are nothing more than a group of losers who have nothing. They are forced to come out and rob, which is fundamentally different from these "enlightened beings" who have a job but still decide to take the first step.

And for the students, these adults all reveal a greasy and rotten smell about them. They are too realistic, either crazy and rude, or timid and arrogant. Besides, they can't talk to themselves at all, and they don't even understand what has been trending recently.

Within the students, too, there is a chain of contempt. The direct schools of Tianen Group are completely different from other schools in Tianen District; And these schools in Tian'en District are different from those in other districts; The students from other district schools are also quite different from the children of workers born in the church schools of Tongjue, the poorest and with the lowest prices and housing prices.

There is not even a school in the Tongjue area, only the church has opened a free church school here. It is extremely desolate, there are no entertainment facilities at all, and there are not one or two restaurants within a dozen kilometers of the surrounding area. Teachers who are willing to come here to teach will naturally not have much better quality of teaching; Most of the "students" here are too lazy to go to school, and they don't have the money to buy teaching materials anyway, so they can't go to university at all. And a high school degree really doesn't mean anything special - it's better to take the electrician exam or become a security guard.

If the foundation is better, whether it is a boy or a girl, if you go to work part-time in the bridge area, you can earn your parents a month a week

income; If the foundation is a little better, you can go to the compass area, one

You can earn more than a month's worth of money in a day. If you have a dream, you will sell yourself to those brokerage companies and become an idol trainee.

Although less than one in 1,000 people can become famous, this probability is much higher than the probability of them being admitted to Tian'en University.

Originally, these students had been separated from each other according to their own areas. In addition to fighting on the Internet, it is basically impossible to meet in reality.

A resident of Tian'en District, who was born in Tian'en District and whose parents both work in Tian'en Group, can basically be promoted to Tian'en Middle School as long as he can be admitted to Tian'en Primary School. Naturally, he also has money

If you go to a tutoring class or ask for a tutor, the probability of going to Heavenly Grace University is not low. After graduating from Tianen University, he will basically be able to enter Tianen Group - if he goes to those second-level companies, it is easy to mix the identity of middle management; And if you go to a start-up company, you can directly take dry shares.

Those with such a fate cannot understand the children who were born in the Enlightenment District and grew up surrounded by countless "factories on the ground" and wastelands like forests of steel.

But now, they have the experience of "joint crime". It's like a square ice soaked in a cocktail with obvious layers, and the colors mix together as it slowly rotates.

Unlike adults who like to be chaotic or desperate, this is the first time most of them have committed a crime, or even the first time they have done something bad - and the frenzy of the crime is very different from the one that occurs when a solo crime is committed.

They smashed, destroyed, plundered, and reveled. The robbery of a factory in the lower town looks like a bonfire.

At the end of the action, the students who returned home enthusiastically and excitedly hugged each other. Although the things they grabbed were far less than what they could buy with the money they earned from a day's work, this kind of "hunting" gave them a great sense of excitement. Many male and female students who had never known each other before grew up in the irrepressible excitement of the night and the strong joy of "the success of the plan".

The adults, on the other hand, are not able to fit into the frenzy. Most of them are trying to grab power – 100 percent of them are not leaders, not even the lowest. In the company, they are all low-level waste, excluded and eliminated, but in the eyes of these students, they are "interested adults".

So they began to swell and began to get drunk. They try to grab the "power" that is still in the barren stage, trying to order the children to do something, or immediately plan to realize their power in order to give themselves some preferential treatment. Unlike the vast majority of students who have not yet been fitted with prosthetics, adults are basically 100% fitted with prosthetics, and this is especially true for the "wage slaves" in the company.

How can a young body resist a cold and powerful machine?

There are also many naïve and orderly people among the students, who will become a drag in this atmosphere. This prevents the children from organizing effective forces against these "dirty adults". These losers who were eliminated in the corporate environment are like lords and kings, hugging left and right, and hugging each other from front to back.

It's a treat they couldn't possibly have ever enjoyed in their previous lives. They inevitably swelled.

But as the "good resources" were looted, these adults began to attack each other again.

At the end of the day, they don't really know what they're doing here. The reason why they chose "Whale Swallow Food Company" is only because their boss is a comb and a relatively famous one.

Compared with those obscure large companies that students have never heard of or understood, this Internet celebrity boss who has been on the emperor's talk show, knows ultramarine, and has joined the Brokers is more suitable as the object of their prestige.

So they all came together.

But what exactly? To what extent? Who will go first? Who will command? How to divide the spoils in the end?

These things caused them to quarrel with each other. Because they don't have a convincing leader to lead on, they don't even know what they're going to do here—they don't even know what it means to be "out of resources."

Most of them just don't want to go to class.

In order not to go to class, they would rather come out and mess around. It's much more exciting than boring classes - not to mention the fact that goddesses and gods who they used to be unapproachable can now easily get close to them.

"Now that such a sinful thing has been done, there is nothing to be afraid of in a lighter bad deed." Thinking like this, the students even began to try more tricks, trying to get more people together to party.

It's not so much that they're here to "raise resources" or "fight against companies"... It's better that they're here to play.

I don't have to go to school, and I don't have to go home to see my parents' faces

, but also from morning to night to vent violence, pressure and desire, sleepless carnival. This is undoubtedly an interesting "game".

They are bored even after standing in front of the food company and watching the adults arguing, and after less than an hour of standing on the stake. Some people crouched down to play games, some couples who had just met kissed each other as if no one was around, and some people wanted to go back and play.

"—we have so many people that we can surround their entire company. What are you afraid of?"

Someone shouted in the crowd.

So, before the adults quarreled and came to a conclusion.

Then a student who was a spirit cow threw a Molotov cocktail directly through the window—
