After leaving Dimitri's residence, Li Oz and Qiu Ran went straight to Dr. Chen Siqi's clinic.

Qiu Ran was silent along the way, she was originally honest and optimistic, and her eyes were full of complicated looks.

"Feeling disappointed?" Li Aozi glanced at the other party, sensing Qiu Ran's depressed mood. Asked casually.

"I used to think that our family of six, crammed into the garbage dump, every day in addition to repairing the car or turning over the scrap, such a life was already miserable."

Qiu Ran looked at the wanderers from the outside world who were trembling all over the place, and were extremely pale because they had never been exposed to artificial sunlight, and pursed their lips:

"I wanted to compare them, to make myself feel more at ease, to feel happy. But I didn't, and even my kind of life was guaranteed by Shikoku...... If, it weren't for the Shikoku, wouldn't they be a little better? ”

"No, it won't."

Li Oz said categorically:

"If there are no Shikoku, it means more small countries, and in order to make a living, more wars will break out, and people from outside will be taken away to be used as cannon fodder and forced laborers, and brick walls will be built until their own corpses become part of the city walls."

"Is it right for Shikoku to do this now?" Qiu Ran asked confusedly.

Syllable!

Li Oz raised his hand and tapped her brain.

"Eh!"

"Why do you think it's either right or wrong?"

Leoz wore a mask, and his voice became dull and hoarse through the respirator:

"There is no so-called right or wrong in this world, from the emperor and president to the common people, everyone is just making do with it."

"But," Qiu Ran hesitated for a moment, "If that's all we should be, isn't it enough for humans to stay in the Stone Age?" I mean, if you're just trying to make a living...... Is it really necessary for us to develop what we are today? ”

"Yes, do you think times are set in stone?"

Li Oz was unimpressed:

"If you don't follow the times, you will be left behind by the times. But to put it bluntly, just like a marathon, what people really want is to run in the crowd, not far from each other, not to be the last, and not to rush too forward. ”

Li Oz spread his hands:

"Life is a marathon, in fact, few people really want to compete for the first, most people just don't want to fall behind, so they do their best, but sometimes, even if you try your best to run to the end, it is just the starting point of others."

Qiu Ran lowered her head, and Li Aozi's words made her mood continue to decline.

"But sometimes, people in the crowd look up and imagine the moment they cross the line."

Li Aozi clasped his hands behind his head and said casually:

"Everybody has wondered, how can you stop people from delusional and hardworking? Those so-called noble runners, they were born by their parents to be placed closer to the finish line, and even if they climb, they can climb faster than us. ”

"Because of this, when people who start from scratch can surpass these people by their own blood, sweat and will, their nobility and arrogance will seem so humble and ridiculous."

The corners of Li Oz's mouth under the mask unconsciously rose. When he stirred up the galaxy as a [Star Descender], no one would question the meaning of the existence of this profession anymore.

Challenging the powerful is the proudest achievement of the weak, and the new king's ascension to the throne must step on the bones of the old king.

"The difference between people is only life and death, just sprint is enough. It's because I'm in the lower position that I can do whatever it takes to kill them. Those who stand at the finish line, they have no right to stop us from taking away victory by all means. ”

"In a race, if someone runs first, the game is meaningless. We should give doping to every runner and make those who run the race pay for it, and after they are dealt with, we can race again. ”

Li Aozi turned his head and glanced at Qiu Ran:

"I've been chatting with Nomi too much lately, and it's a bit unenvironmentally friendly, please forgive me."

Poof!

Qiu Ran stared at him for a moment, and suddenly laughed:

"Hahaha...... Mr. Lee, aren't you quite good at telling jokes? Life is a marathon, and if someone rushes to run, someone will give doping to others...... What kind of fallacy is this, in this way, the competition becomes whose doping is more powerful? It's not a good thing that everyone is becoming addicts......

She smiled and laughed, and suddenly fell silent, her eyes sweeping over the wanderers sleeping in the sunken ship.

"I don't think that's right, but there's nothing I can do to argue with you. If life is meant to be a race, I also hope that my relatives can get closer to the finish line. ”

Qiu Ran took a deep breath, stepped forward, and talked with Li Oz side by side:

"Actually, I'm always selfish."

"I don't think so." Li Aozi said casually: "Don't you still have two younger brothers and a younger sister to raise?" Counting your parents and yourself, you have to feed six mouths by yourself. ”

"Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have to raise a family of six," Qiu Ran said very calmly: "Dad's lung cancer should have no money to treat, and sooner or later he will die, and Mom's waist can't bear the physical labor and she will already be paralyzed in bed, she should find a chance to kill herself." If I go back, I just need to raise my younger siblings! ”

Li Aozi was stunned.

"Huh? What's wrong? Qiu Ran looked at Li Aozi suspiciously, thought of something, and smiled: "It's okay, I have Ao Neng now, protect them, or find a better job, it's not a problem to feed four people." ”

"No, I mean, something so big happened to your parents—" Li Oz was interrupted by Qiu Ran before he could finish speaking.

"No, those of us who are in the garbage dump are very happy to have lived so long." Qiu Ran patted Li Aozi on the shoulder: "Mr. Li Aozi, you are from the Red Arrow Empire, I heard that the imperial people will not go hungry as long as they are willing to work hard, I am really envious." ”

"That's not true, the internal competition of the Red Arrow Empire is indeed fierce, in order to get a higher status and remuneration, there are not a few officials who work overtime to sudden death, the entire empire is a furnace fueled by the lives of citizens, once life stops, it can no longer produce light and warmth."

Li Oz confessed:

"Do you know Al Calan? It was a vassal of the Empire, with 300,000 repeaters every year, and they would do whatever it took to get into one of the worst universities in the Empire, because even a simple dishwasher in the Empire would earn three times as much as a white-collar worker in the country. ”

"If you think about it this way, I don't really have a good feeling for my country, and His Excellency the President always says that he wants to protect the rights and interests of women - but in fact, he only protects the rights and interests of women bosses and officials, right? Because my mother was tired and broke her waist, she didn't apply for medical insurance. ”

Qiu Ran sighed:

"Sometimes I fantasize that my younger brother and sister can go to university and become civil servants and teachers."

"In that case, you can have a car to drive, and you can live in a 60-square-meter public rental house, so that the family will not be crowded. In the office, you don't have to climb high and low every day, braving heavy metal pollution and ionizing radiation to rummage through parts that can sell for money. If you have the protection of the labor contract, as long as you work from 9 to 5 every day, and there is an hour of rest in between, you are so happy to think about. ”

"After working 18 hours a day, my brain was so groggy that I couldn't do anything, huddled with my adolescent siblings on a bed of pick-up springs. In the middle of the night, I will be woken up by the sound of the train next door. Speaking of which, if you only have eight hours of work, you can even watch TV and go to the gym to play tennis and do gymnastics...... Well! ”

She suddenly stretched, stopped fantasizing, and smiled at Li Oz:

"If I think about it again, I feel like I want to go back to frosting."

"Then go back, do all this, leave the Underworld, and I'll send you home." Li Oz didn't look over, "However, your Ao can be very useful, can you give it to me." I have the ability to absorb other people's abilities, and it's better to be cheaper than to be cheaper—"

"No! I still hope to make money by using this ability to bake teppanyaki! ”

Qiu Ran angrily punched Li Aozi in the waist:

"You're talking to me because of my superpowers, aren't you? Don't even think about it, before my younger brothers and sisters are admitted to college, I must use this ability to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars and buy them a suite in the frost-plated capital, one for one person! ”

Li Oz said quietly: "You can't afford it, the house price in the seventh ring of the Twin Star City is 30,000 debs per square meter. ”

"Oh, didn't you just say why stop people from delusional and hard work!" Qiu Ran feigned anger and said, "I'm angry! I snuck the car away while you were sleeping. ”

"You're so kind, I actually have tens of thousands of derbies in the Underworld, and you didn't snatch it."

"Really, tens of thousands of derbys, then you have to work without eating or drinking for five years......"

Bang!

Just as Li Oz and Qiu Ran were fighting, the door on the left was suddenly kicked open, and a woman slowly walked up to them with a cigarette stick in her mouth, she raised her mechanical prosthetic point and pointed to the sign on the wall:

[There are patients inside, keep quiet]
