Zhou Yu, who was originally quite dissatisfied with Chen Wei, lost his temper completely after seeing the scene.
This is not to say that he likes this kind of place very much. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Both he and Zhou Yu usually avoid such places. But as Chen Wei promised, he did get the answer he wanted the moment he stepped here.
"...But Classmate Chen, do you think this is a 'suitable place for dreaming'?"
"Yeah, isn't it appropriate?"
Against the dazzling sun, Zhou Yu pointed to the roller coaster track high in the sky.
"Would you fall asleep in a place like this?"
In response to his question, Chen Wei smiled and replied: "I'm talking about daydreaming."
"Do you understand now why you were beaten by classmate Zhang?"
"Because dwarfs are all narrow-minded."
His remarks were not retaliated by the parties concerned. Because as soon as he passed the ticket gate, Zhang Mumu went straight to the carousel. Zhou Yu, who declined to go with him due to inconveniences in his legs and feet, could only stand where he was with Chen Wei.
No longer trying to argue with this religious and cultural reference book, Zhou Yu walked towards the roller coaster on her own. Of course, not because he was interested in this kind of entertainment, but because of the sound coming from the roller coaster.
Migenzhu City, which is not famous for its tourism and entertainment industry, has such a carnival theme park, but there is nothing commendable in terms of scale and equipment. Viewed from a distance, the bright red track suspended in the sky has only three steep slopes and only a huge single loop at the highest point. When the train accelerated through the third steep slope and rushed to the top of the ring, you could hear the screams of the passengers standing at the entrance.
And the scream, composed of a chorus of voices, was exactly the same as the processed recording sent by Chen Wei.
"...It's actually here." He murmured to himself.
"Have you rarely been to a place like this before? I thought I would understand it as soon as I heard this kind of sound."
Chen Wei, who had a leisurely attitude, also followed him with his pocket in his pocket. He seemed to like the atmosphere of this area very much, and said in a relaxed and cheerful tone: "I came here once before during a club activity, and I happened to ride on this car. At that time, I was filming two groups of people, and then I discovered that the roller coasters here are exactly three times apart each time. minute."
"Will it be that accurate? It depends on the boarding speed of passengers, right?"
"It's hard to say when business is slow, but it must be three minutes during peak hours. I only discovered this after watching it several times. The time it takes for a vehicle to cross the entire track actually only takes about one minute. Because the train is very short, passengers It doesn't take long to leave and get on the bus, usually completed in two and a half minutes. Even so, the administrator will control the bus to leave after three minutes. I don't know whether it is because of the management system or to protect the equipment. "
"It's a shame you still pay attention to such things. Do you plan to go to a private detective agency after graduation?"
"How could it be? I must be looking for an editorial job, but I have always found roller coasters interesting, so I paid a little attention to it."
"That's just right. Since you like roller coasters, go and ride them now. I can just walk around by myself."
Zhou Yu said decisively, turning around and preparing to walk aside. The screams in the recording sounded quite mild and were obviously not in the vicinity of the roller coaster.
Unexpectedly, Chen Wei, who claimed to be interested in roller coasters, followed him and said in a nonchalant tone: "Actually, the sounds above can be heard not only inside the amusement park, but also in nearby buildings."
"...Can't you go experience the roller coaster yourself?"
"Ah, although I want to, I can't take that ride. Last time, I was responsible for filming alone down there."
"Why? Have you committed something and been blacklisted as a tourist by the administrator?"
"That's not true. But have I mentioned it before? My physical condition is not very good. Physical education is exempted. In principle, I cannot participate in overly exciting activities like this."
After hearing his words, Zhou Yu remembered that there seemed to be such a thing. He glanced back at Chen Wei and said, "I really can't tell."
"It's really not obvious when I'm not doing strenuous activities. But once I get sick, there's a risk of death. I have to cherish my life."
"If you care about your life, you won't join a club looking for excitement. From the perspective of death risk, there is no difference between a supernatural game and a roller coaster, right?"
In the past, Zhou Yu would not have thought so. However, after experiencing so many things, he also accepted that this world - or rather this city - cannot be interpreted with common sense. Compared to a roller coaster that follows physical rules and safety regulations, spinning in a dark room in the middle of the night is more likely to cause mishaps.
Chen Wei shrugged noncommittally.
“You know the euthanasia roller coaster?”
"Are you talking about hanging steel wires on the tracks and cutting off the heads of passengers when the train accelerates?"
"Is that a violent death? I'm referring to the euthanasia-specific roller coaster designed abroad. According to that design, passengers will be taken to an altitude of about five hundred meters. During the period leading to the sky, they can examine their own Life, give it one last thought. When the roller coaster reaches its highest point, it pauses and waits for the rider to make the final decision. If the rider really feels he has thought it through, he presses the start button and that's it."
He raised his right hand, raised it above his head, and then dropped it heavily.
"The roller coaster will accelerate and plunge, going through seven loops. During that process, the person will fall into cognitive chaos due to lack of blood supply to the brain, and eventually die completely."
After saying this, he looked at the red ring in the sky behind the two of them.
"How about it? Sounds like a very romantic way to die, right?"
"Cerebral ischemia may not be as comfortable as you described." Zhou Yu said coldly, "I have never heard of this euthanasia measure. Classmate Chen, are you sure this is legal?"
"Probably it's not legal, because it's just a relatively famous design and has no physical existence at all - then again, spending money to build this kind of death roller coaster in order to help some people commit poetic suicide, whether from a government perspective or an operational perspective, From a business perspective, it can’t be said to be a glorious investment, so it’s better to shelve this controversial proposal for the time being.”
"Yes. If you want to experience falling, just find a high-rise building. Jumping from a building is the most economical way to commit suicide in the city. The money to build a death roller coaster should be invested in the hospital."
"That's true. If it doesn't affect others, I would tend to jump off the building."
Zhou Yu turned around and stared at the other party. Chen Wei's expression still looked casual, and he didn't seem to feel that he was bringing up a serious topic.
"...Classmate Chen, do you have suicidal thoughts?"
"Haha, just saying casually. Compared to hanging, cutting wrists and other techniques, doesn't jumping off a building seem more intense? There is no time for buffering and struggling. It is like flying to death on your own initiative. The moment the flight ends, life is gone. It ended immediately. Not discussing the poetic element, at least it was a very efficient method."
"Your poetry and efficiency have omitted the pedestrians and vehicles accidentally injured by the fallen, the vegetative state that failed to die, the relatives who monitored his excretion and eating all day long, and the part where you used high-pressure water cannons to wash away the muddy meat within one kilometer of the fall point. ?”
For some reason, Zhou Yu now has a strong dislike for this topic. The rude words almost rushed out of his mouth of their own accord.
Regarding his almost offensive attitude, Chen Wei still smiled and said: "Well... it is indeed the part that I did not consider. However, if you jump from the building here, because there is a green belt as a buffer, the body will basically not be dropped. It’s too scattered. If you master the posture and height well, you can do it with a whole corpse.”
"You make it sound like you've tried it yourself."
"I haven't tried it, but a girl did jump to death here in October last year. It is said that her body was incredibly intact and looked like she was asleep. It is really a pity, she was an intern in the laboratory. He seems to be about the same age as us..."
Zhou Yu suddenly stopped. Chen Wei next to him was still unaware and continued to talk about the strange story about the girl who jumped from the building.
"...There are rumors that her ghost still lingers in this area. Because she was wearing a red hooded coat when she died, she was called 'Little Red Riding Hood'."
