Chapter XXXVII

Hearing their words, a chill rushed to my heart.

None of the people present were saddened by the child's death, and they still had the same gentle smiles on their faces as always.

In Burke's eyes, the smiles on their faces were like a demon mask.

He remembered the strong man.

The strong man who deliberately found fault in the restaurant.

The transformation from a rogue to a good guy is just less than a day.

Burke's eyes widened in horror as he reflected on what had happened today, and slowly retreated, an unspeakable terror engulfing him.

Originally, he came to the No. 7 pipe mouth with a vigilant heart, but unconsciously, his vigilance was quietly taken away.

His mood was inexplicably better, and even his desire to find the traces of the mission weakened mostly, and even his actions subconsciously slowed down.

Burke feared the place.

There seems to be a special force here that will crowd out other emotions and subtly erase them completely, leaving only "happy".

He looked at the group of "people" in front of him and frowned.

This group of guys never seems to be angry, and they never have any other emotions......

They have lost anger, jealousy, fear, grief, pity......

Even such a thing as a child falling to death can be laughed off.

This bunch of guys is already sick! Lose your marbles!

Burke didn't want to stay here for a second, he frowned and ran quickly towards the mouth of the pipe, and soon left the mouth of the seventh, returning to Cárdenas.

As soon as he ran out, a man with a somewhat decadent face, wearing a beret and a cigar in his mouth, walked slowly towards Burke.

Burke's eyes looked at the guy in front of him warily.

I saw him take out a cigar with a round head and flat tail, and said as he took out his scissors, "You are the third person who has not been polluted by that ghost place." ”

Burke stopped him from cutting his cigar: "I don't smoke. ”

"Detect it, the world behind the mouth." His voice was low.

"Who are you?" Burke asked.

"Frank Taylor."

"You know the problem in that place?" Listening to him, Burke could guess something, too.

"You know, that outlet, more dangerous than any other outlet, but instead of a law enforcement team, it has become a popular tourist attraction in Cárdenas."

Burke saw in his eyes an incomparable anger, more powerless than anger.

"I haven't been to the other outlets, so I won't comment on them, but it's an extremely dangerous place." Burke did not fully admit his claims.

"I'm going to destroy the No. 7 nozzle, if you want to get involved, come with me, if you're not interested, just go, don't go to the No. 7 nozzle."

He let out a puff of smoke and turned away with gloomy eyes.

After a moment's thought, Burke followed, and along the way, he also told the other party his name.

Soon, they came to a small, dark and damp room.

This small room has only a table, a stool, a bed, and a small toilet.

It is worth mentioning that although the room is very small, the walls are all plastered with messages.

"Let me state first, I don't have any idea of destroying the No. 7 nozzle, I just took a bounty from the No. 7 nozzle, and on the basis of my completion of the task, I can walk with you."

Burke's purpose was very clear, that is, the 800,000 people, and as for the sick and weird No. 7 pipe, he didn't care.

"It's the bounty list issued by the Church of Doom to find the lost statue."

Apparently, he had any information about the No. 7 nozzle, and Burke nodded in acknowledgment.

"Our goals are almost the same." He said.

"What's almost the same?"

"We all have to enter the inner world of the seventh pipe mouth, only in the inner world, you can find what you want, and I will also destroy the inner world."

"Is there still a world in the seventh pipe mouth?" Burke was shocked, he always thought that this kind of world on the outside and inside was all and fooling people.

"Of course, otherwise the law enforcement team would not have been able to open the No. 7 pipe mouth."

"You mean, the law enforcement team doesn't know that there is a world in the seventh pipe mouth?" Burke asked.

"More than half of Cárdenas' enforcement team was contaminated by No. 7."

"So serious?"

"It's not serious, it's serious, a third of the people in the whole of Cárdenas are polluted, and if you don't believe it, if you go to the streets, at least three or four out of ten people are smiling all the time."

Burke then remembered the pedestrians he had seen on the road before, and most of them were indeed smiling gently.

He was just a simple Cárdenas at the time, and the environment was very harmonious and beautiful, but he didn't expect those guys to be polluted......

"That's true." Burke nodded solemnly.

"Cárdenas is on the verge of collapse." He took a heavy drag on his cigar.

"Crash? While it is true that many people have been contaminated, there seems to be no sign of collapse. ”

"This collapse is invisible, you can't see it."

"I can't see? Can you see it again? Burke stared at him.

Taylor put the cigar in the ashtray, and after a long silence, he looked at Burke with a calm face: "My wife and daughter are in front of my eyes, doing things without limits with countless strangers on the road. ”

Burke's heart trembled when he heard this, his eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say, and Taylor continued:

"Everyone knows that as long as you go to the No. 7 pipe, no matter how bad the troubles are, they will disappear without a trace, and they will become extremely happy.

One day, my wife took my daughter to the No. 7 pipe, but I didn't go because I was busy with work.

I was supposed to come back that day, but I didn't come home all night, and the next day, because I was worried, I went to the seventh pipe to look for them.

I saw it all with my own eyes, and I don't know if they were willing or forced.

All I know is that they are happy and have smiles on their faces.

When they saw me coming, they smiled and waved at me as they did so.

Everyone looked at me, and I was kindly invited by the group and claimed that I was my wife's husband, so let me do it first.

I asked her why this was happening.

She smiled and said to me, 'Because then everybody will be happy.' ’

I looked at my daughter, who was covered in filth, and she smiled happily and said to me, 'Daddy, let's play together.' ’

I looked at the people around me, and they all had kind and gentle smiles on their faces, and they said to me, 'As long as you can be happy, you can have fun around you.' ’

I see a lot of women, pregnant women, women with children, women with families, couples in love......

They laughed and invited me to join the game, and my wife and daughter, too, urged me to join in.

They have a good attitude and they speak in a gentle tone.

When some people noticed that my mood was not getting better, the men kept apologizing to me, kneeling on the ground and bleeding from their heads.

In order to make me happy and not angry, they cut off their own organs on the spot and begged for my forgiveness. ”
