Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Bomb Alarm Clock Theory
Minister Li suddenly smiled.
Then, Minister Li sat back in his original position and lit another cigarette.
smiled: "What's the matter, my heart is unbalanced?" ”
Chu Xiao nodded: "There is a little, I can't figure it out." ”
"Hehehe." Minister Li laughed: "You know what? Previously, Twilight City did not have four districts, east, west, north, south, and center, and there were no partition walls. All people, all living together. ”
"But, gradually, some people, no, the majority."
"They gave up hope, and the whole skin was full of negative energy."
"They are bored with the world and impatient. They don't see the world, and there is no hope. ”
"However, they are unwilling to cut themselves off, so they live like the walking dead."
"Whew..."
Minister Li spat out a puff of smoke rings and fell into memory.
"These decadent people, they are not only giving up on themselves, they are polluting others."
"At that time, Twilight City was in a great crisis."
"Because, this kind of spiritual pollution with negative energy is spreading rapidly. Polluted, every resident of Twilight. ”
"Soon, the higher-ups, a solution was given."
"That's what you see right now."
"Twilight has built a partition wall, divided into five areas: east, west, north, south, and middle."
"And the eastern district is the most mentally polluted area, and it is also the source of all negative energy, spiritual pollution."
With that, Minister Li stood up, walked to the window, and looked out the window at the dilapidated cars that were speeding by.
On that street, numb pedestrians.
Day after day, they repeat their work.
Everyone's face is full of wood, and the eyes have lost the light that people should have.
"It's not that we're going to divide them into three, six, nine, and so on. It's all their own choice. ”
"In these apocalyptic times, they don't see the slightest hope, and we tried to save them from the mud they have fallen into."
"But it was they who gave up on themselves."
"We did our best."
Minister Li turned around and adjusted his trench coat.
Extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand.
"Chuxiao, I know that this world is not so beautiful. However, we people must have a little bit to support our spirit. ”
"If you even give up on yourself, no matter how anxious others are, it will be in vain to try to pull you."
With that, Minister Li walked out and opened the door to the conference room.
"Wait." Chu Xiao suddenly stopped Minister Li and asked, "Minister Li, since the Eastern District is already like this." Why... Why do we still have to sacrifice our lives to save those who have given up on ourselves? ”
"It's... Is it worth it? ”
Minister Li's hand rested on the doorknob and clenched slightly.
He let out a sigh of relief and said, "Chu Xiao, for example, the abyss and the various supernatural events that are born from the influence of the abyss are a volcano that threatens our lives at all times. ”
"On a large land, a group of sleeping people are lying, and in the distance there is a volcano, which is about to erupt."
"We are like an alarm clock, in the face of these sleeping people, you want to wake them up, you keep ringing, some light sleepers are woken up by you, go with you to wake up everyone."
"However, there are too many people, your voice is too weak, and the number of people who wake up is limited after all."
"And some people are annoyed by it, and they kick two pieces from time to time, so some alarm clocks are afraid that they will be too late, so they use their lives as raw materials and turn them into bombs, which wake up a large number of people at once."
"At the beginning of the dawn, only we continue to persevere, and in the end, we can wake everyone up."
"Chuxiao, our road is a long way to go!"
After saying the last sentence, Minister Li left, and the door was closed.
Chu Xiao sat down slowly, he was thinking, thinking, thinking about what Minister Li had just said.
……
Evening.
"Chuxiao, I'm back." Pushing open the courtyard door, Chu Xiao walked into the dilapidated courtyard.
Mom is in the yard, watering the roses in the flower bed.
Seeing that Chu Xiao was back, my mother seemed very happy.
She put down the watering can in her hand and walked quickly to Chu Xiao.
Grabbing Chu Xiao's arms with both hands, he looked Chu Xiao up and down, and asked with concern, "How is it?" Is there anything else that is uncomfortable? ”
Looking at her mother's distressed appearance, Chu Xiao smiled very gently and shook her head: "No, Mom." Worries you. ”
"Well, come on. Come inside and I'll cook for you. Mom took Chu Xiao's hand, pushed open the door, and walked in.
"Your brother is back, don't come out soon." As soon as she entered the house, her mother shouted to her sister's room.
"Crunch."
The door opened.
The younger sister poked out her little head and looked at Chu Xiao standing at the door.
"Alright, I'm going to cook. You two little ones have fun. ”
Mom walked briskly into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. It can be seen that Chuxiao recovered and was discharged from the hospital, and her mother's mood was much better.
Looking at her sister who poked out a small head, Chu Xiao squatted down and stretched out her arms: "Sister, don't miss me." ”
My sister was a little hesitant, and there was some fear in her big eyes.
Chu Xiao was a little strange, moved two steps forward, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, sister?" ”
The younger sister shrank back into the room with some frustration, and the door revealed a gap.
"Brother, is it really you?" My sister's voice came from the crack, and there was a deep sense of fear.
"yes, that's me, what's wrong? How can you blame it today. Chu Xiao said a little strangely.
My sister opened the door again and peeked at Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao smiled and took out four packing boxes from his back: "Look, what is this." ”
The packing box is full of seafood.
My sister's eyes lit up, and she opened the door, her voice was loud and a little excited: "Brother, it's really you." ”
My sister threw herself into Chu Xiao's arms very quickly.
"Brother, you scared me to death that night. I thought my father was coming out. ”
"I'm so scared."
As she spoke, her sister sobbed in Chu Xiao's arms.
Chu Xiao stroked her sister's little head and said gently: "What are you talking about, just talking nonsense." ”
"Come, hurry up and eat, I'll bring you back."
"Don't be cold."
Chu Xiao opened the packing box, picked up her sister, and sat on the dining chair.
"Well, brother, you eat too." My sister took out a prawn and handed it to Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao smiled and took the prawns.
"Mine." In the room, my father's voice was heard.
"Here you go, father." Chu Xiao said, opened the door of the couple's room, and sent the packing box in.
"You all eat less, don't wait for me to cook, you're all full." Mom poked her head out and snorted.
Chu Xiao laughed, and sure enough, it was the most comfortable in the family.
