Today's dinner is hot pot. Xi Ke prefers food that can be eaten faster, such as stir-frying on high heat, which can produce cooked meat in large quantities very efficiently, but because Xiao Ji paid for ten boxes of meat, Xi Ke has no opinion on this, and happily waits for the hot pot.

The two chatted while waiting for the meat to be cooked. Xiao Ballast asked Xike, "Are you scared? Today's protest. 」

Xike's attention was entirely focused on the process of the meat slices turning from red to white, and it took two seconds to realize that Xiao Zhu had spoken: "What protest?"

"Protests at the gates. Xiao Zhen frowned.

Judging that the meat was ready to be eaten, he immediately picked it up and ate it, and only replied when the slices were safe to eat, "That's nothing. 」

"Oh. The corners of Xiao Xuan's mouth were smiling, but his eyes were carefully observing Xi Ke: "The woman who took the lead, she doesn't live nearby at all, but she is the president of the Self-Rescue Association, and she spends a lot of money on transportation to commute to protest every day, and she loves to cause trouble. I heard that her husband was separated from her and that her son didn't want to visit her, and I could understand Weishenme. 」

In response to Xiao Xuan's gaze, Xi Ke made a request for mass production of food: "Can I get a box of meat at a time?"

"Whatever you want. 」

"Good!" Rick happily threw the whole box of meat into the pot. Thinking that I also ate a special meal for five people yesterday, the people in this place are really generous. So generous that he had completely given up the idea of slipping away.

"You're so bold. Xiao Zhu held his chin with one hand and said softly.

"Yes? That's nothing. When he was an evil mage, he had even seen the scene of the Holy Shield's general attack, and the protest march was not comparable to that at all, and of course it did not scare him.

"Normally, just seeing that mushroom spirit will run away. 」

"Well, I really wanted to escape, yes. Rick said earnestly.

Xiao Zhu didn't speak, and his eyebrows were slightly raised. After a while, he pointed to the pot and said, "These are natural pigs, not magic pigs. 」

"Is there a difference?" Nick prepared for battle with chopsticks, and as soon as the meat was cooked, he was about to eat it immediately, and then put down the next box.

"Magical Breeding is more productive, takes less time, is more consistent in quality, and less likely to get known diseases, sounds ideal, right? But there are those who suspect that Magically Raised Meat will have problems that it didn't have before, and others who believe that Magically Raised Food Waste should be sent to the Fourth Incinerator for disposal. 」

Xi Ke frowned and nibbled on his chopsticks, "You like to say something difficult. It was like that when he was at the door, no one could understand what he was saying, but no one wanted to admit that he didn't, so no one asked what he meant.

Xiao Zhu changed his other hand to support his chin: "It's normal if you don't understand. Most people on this shijie can live safely because they can't understand it. 」

"What if I understand?" asked Rick, raising an eyebrow.

"That's why you're so poor. Xiao Gu said with a smile. His smile this time was not a social smile, but a more sharp angle at the corners of his mouth, a bullying smile.

Xi Ke closed his mouth playfully, and only opened it when he ate.

"What do you think is a meaningful life?" Xiao Zhen asked, "Do people have to prove to Shijie that they were born?Or as long as they feel happy, even if they are nameless? If only leaving traces is a meaningful life, then isn't everyone a tool used by others to prove themselves? Like Lady Fangfuno, who uses the lives of the people to leave her own trajectory, she will definitely say that her life is very meaningful-" Xiao Zhen pinched a piece of meat that Xi Ke was about to start: "--That's just satisfying personal desire to lead." 」

Rick doesn't think about that, the most important thing in life for him is to fill his stomach. So he lowered his head and decided to concentrate more on guarding the meat and stop chatting.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

After eating, I went back to work in the decomposition room. Nick found that this work allowed him to devote himself to researching the most important commercial products of our time. Anyway, there was no one to monitor their progress, so he carefully dismantled the magic weapon, studied the structure, and even tried to repair it. He began to imagine that if he had saved enough money in the future, he might be able to start a small magic shop.

He found that there were many magic weapons that were not broken at all, but the shells were not good-looking to scratch, or they had poor contact and needed to be cleaned up, at most they should be repaired, which was far from the standard of "should be thrown away" in Xike's personal opinion. There are recommended prices on the design drawings for reference, and these things that can still be used are dismantled and thrown away, which makes Xi Ke more and more sad.

He took apart a magic fan and sold it for a decent house for half a year, he took apart a magic dishwasher and sold it for a price that allowed him to assemble a beautiful vendor's cart and buy a tricycle to tow it away, and he took apart a magic copier, the price of which he couldn't bear to let him eat. He couldn't help but shout, "It's good to spend a few cents to change the line, why throw the whole thing away?"

Xiao Ballast walked over, holding a bright green quivering translucent colloidal object in both hands. It is a magically created artificial gum monster that is said to be used to clean the floors of homes. There were no seams or pipes in this thing, and Rick couldn't figure out how to dismantle it. I saw that Xiao Ballast boiled a pot of boiling water and threw the gelatinous monster into it, and it melted inside, leaving only the power core floating on the water. The pot seemed to be the one they had just used to cook the hot pot, the largest pot in the kitchen. Rick decided to pretend he didn't find out.

Rick asked, "Can I fix these things and sell them?"

"No. Xiao Gu replied immediately. He used a long clamp to pinch the smoking power core out of the boiling water and put it under the tap to flush cold water.

"Anyway, this is unwanted garbage!"

"Commercial magic products are almost always luxury goods, and the market value of liking the new and hating the old is its market value. Xiao Bao closed his mouth, carefully poured out the hot water that had turned green, and washed the pot with cold water to cool down. When he put on his gloves and started brushing the pot, he continued: "If everyone doesn't buy new things, what do manufacturers make? You can't push consumers to cherish old things, otherwise you'll be violating the work rule here: 'Don't swallow garbage.'" Got it?"

"I don't want to understand. Rick sighed and looked down to disassemble the third magic camera he had handled today.

Xiao Zhen smiled and said, "If you don't want to understand, let's say it in another way. There is another way of saying that weishenme does not embezzle garbage. Legend has it that some magic weapons secretly use a woman's body as a material. 」

Xi Ke lowered the corners of his mouth: "That's illegal, right?"

Xiao Ballast raised an eyebrow. Normal people would directly think that this is exaggerated, but Xi Ke cut in from a legal point of view, which made him feel amazing. "Of course it's illegal. Just like killing people is illegal, but most people don't say that killing is illegal, but they just say that you can't kill people, right? A woman was killed, and her body was dismantled to make a magic weapon, and then the magic weapon flowed to the people, so that supernatural events occurred in every household. The woman's soul refused to rest in peace, and she was seen in several places in several cities in broad daylight, and even two or three of her were seen on the street at a time. 」

Cheek tilted his head, "It's not normal to be haunted in broad daylight, right? And I've never heard of ghosts playing doppelgangers." 」

"Well, so this story is just a legend, it's fake. But don't you think that's a good reason for individuals to litter?"

Rick glanced at Xiao Zhen, his lips tense, as if the person who was most afraid of this story was the one who said it. His nervous expression only lasted a few seconds before returning to normal, and with a wave of his hand, the power core drew an arc in the air and fell accurately into the sorting box three meters away.

Rick picked up a magic camera. He noticed that the camera still had photographic paper inside, and he checked that there were no defects in the parts, and that it should still work. Xi Ke had never taken a single photo with a camera in his life, so he took the camera and pointed it at the door and took a photo. White paper is slowly spit out through the opening under the camera. Nick holds the paper in one hand and waits for the image to emerge, hoping that the paper has not deteriorated.

After about a minute, an image slowly appeared on the photographic paper. Rick struggled to make out what was on it. The rectangular light color should be the gate, and the small square in front should be the table...... As the image became clearer, Rick saw a curvaceous object in front of the door, and nothing in the room had a curvaceous curve. Rick glanced at the gate, and there was nothing else nearby.

By the time the image was almost completely clear, Rick could see it clearly. It was a naked woman. She stood there, her hands hanging down naturally, in the same position as a human specimen in medical school. She faces the photographer and looks at the photographer. Rick was pretty sure there was absolutely no such person in the room.

Although there was clearly something wrong with the photograph, Rick stared at it until it was fully revealed. The woman had long, silky and shiny hair that was longer than her hips. The hair was so long that it showed no signs of frizzy split ends, and it was full of light until the ends. She has a face full of charm, with a rounded contour but retains personality, and looks pure with a moderate sense of pride. The bridge of her nose, eyebrows, and lips are not just straight, they are as delicate as the beauty in the painting. Those eyes were deep and shiny, and the shape of the eyes was mysterious, elevating her whole appearance to an otherworldly realm. Her figure is bumpy, such a grand, full and erect breasts, such a soft feeling, with such a slender waist, a pair of long legs seem to have no end. Her skeleton is feminine and seems to melt. Even in the photo, you can see that her skin is like congealed cream, exuding a pink halo. This woman's beauty is perfect.

But in the photo, she glared angrily at Xike. It wasn't the anger of ordinary people when they were provoked, but cold hatred.

That's the coldness of the dead.

Rick threw the supernatural photo into the sorting box that went straight to the main furnace, and quickly dismantled the magic camera. After all the discarded parts were delivered, he said to Xiao Xuan, "What you said really makes sense!"
