The temporary prisoner of war camp was at the very back of the camp, surrounded by high walls that were difficult to climb, with broken glass and barbed wire. Froststar was not worried at all that the man would run away, unless he could fly.
But when she came to the outside of the prisoner-of-war camp, she sighed in her heart. It was a prisoner-of-war camp, but it only had two companions guarding the prisoners and a weak wooden door.
"...If you call me brother, you will get candy."
Someone's triumphant laughter came from inside, as if he was teasing a child with candy.
Shuangxing's already bad mood suddenly became worse. She reached out to push the wooden door, but just when her fingertips were about to touch the door panel, she stopped by some mistake. She stood at the door and listened quietly. Movement inside.
They only met once on the battlefield, and they never met again. More than a year later, when they met again, he was a different person, from a stranger to another stranger.
Several crisp "brother" sounds came from inside, and the man happily distributed the candies in his hands, as if he was doing the most interesting job in the world.
Frost Star pursed her lips. These children were not captives. They were fostered here by their parents who followed the integration movement.
After the integration movement came to the Rust Belt, many infected people came here because of its reputation. Most of them became companions, and only a few people retreated.
In fact, their life in the Rust Belt is worse than joining the integration movement. At least they can have enough to eat after joining the organization. Unlike other Rust Belt citizens, in addition to receiving the minimum living allowance issued by the Colombian government, they can only sit at the door and bask in the sun every day. , wasting a whole day.
If he hadn't come here in person, Froststar probably wouldn't have believed that there were people even more miserable than those living in the slums under Ursus' rule.
If this was a civilized society, Froststar would rather dig potatoes on a farm in the ice and snow than live here.
"Would you like to listen to my brother's story?"
The man in the prisoner of war camp started his performance again. Shuangxing stood at the door for a while. She opened the door and went in. What she saw was a man sitting on the floor surrounded by seven or eight children, looking at him expectantly.
Life here is indeed very boring. Playing is a child's nature, so it would be better if there are stories to listen to.
Their parents are common people who have not received higher education. After the ballads are told over and over again, they have long lost their freshness, which is why the children are so interested in the stories told by men.
Zhou Jinru sensed that Shuangxing was at the door through his talent, but he didn't care. It wasn't until she came in that he slowly said: "Let's tell the story between seven men and one woman..."
Frost Star: "?"
What is this all about? !
Do you tell your children this kind of story? !
She resisted the urge to beat him up and reluctantly listened to a paragraph. Her angry eyes slowly turned into suspicion. When the story was over, the children couldn't sit still and ran away. She said coldly: "It's just some Ursa." This fairy tale must be adapted so mysteriously."
Zhou Jinru sat on the ground without moving, raised his head and looked at Frost Star, wondering: "How did the story of the Seven Dwarfs and Snow White become Ursus's?"
"Usas's fairy tales are generally only heard by children of nobles. Where did you hear them?"
Only nobles have heard of it. Has listening to stories in the world of Terra become so high-end?
Zhou Jinru suppressed his doubts and shook his head: "No, they are obviously the most common stories, but those children have never heard them. Now you say that only children of Ursus nobles can hear fairy tales. Let me give you a few more outlines. Have you heard of it?"
Immediately afterwards, he told the stories of "Three Little Pigs", "Calabash Baby", "Ugly Duckling" and "The Crying Wolf" one by one. Although Shuangxing was puzzled, she still listened patiently and then gave express your own understanding.
Zhou Jinru was completely dumbfounded. In Shuangxing's description, the plots of these stories had changed a lot, but the endings remained basically the same.
Is this the choice of the will of the universe?
"I would like to ask, Miss Frost Star, where did you hear these stories?"
Shuangxing didn't know what this man was up to, but the confusion in his eyes was clearly visible, so he said, "Big Daddy told stories before. I've heard him tell them a lot. Have you had enough trouble?"
Zhou Jinru had a lot of thoughts in his mind. The patriot was once an officer of Ursus. Even if he couldn't touch the aristocracy, he was not far behind. Wendigo, who had lived for more than two hundred years, knew that a little story was nothing. Strange things.
What he doesn't understand is why these stories haven't spread among the people at the bottom. In fact, the problem is not just in the Rust Belt, but even some operators in Rhode Island have never heard of it.
"No problem for now, Miss Frost Star, do you have any urgent matter with me?"
"you!"
Froststar was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Do you people in Rhode Island have no idea of your situation?
Frostleaf was like this before, and so was the doctor from Rhode Island. You guys really have the same naivety!
Zhou Jinru came to his senses and realized that this person wanted to give him some relief, but he just couldn't find a point to vent his anger.
He grabbed his hair and whispered: "That W, you have no issues with her, right?"
Shuangxing was furious: "No! But she wants you very much, and I'm preparing to sell you at a good price! Just wait until you die!"
"Don't be angry. Let me tell you, she is an out-and-out lunatic. She wanted to kill me last time and sent so many Sakaz troops to chase and intercept me. In the end, she didn't let me run away. You are better than her in this regard. Qiang, you captured the famous Dr. Rhode Island, can W do it?"
Zhou Jinru was messing around for a while, and White Rabbit left angrily. It wasn't until she left the prisoner of war camp that she realized that she seemed to have done nothing and was just angry.
"She should have come to her senses now. Emotional guidance is difficult to do. On the one hand, it is verbal guidance, and on the other hand, the other party must have similar thoughts in their mind, otherwise the guidance effect will be almost negligible."
Zhou Jinru flexed his fingers, thinking about how useful his talent for emotional guidance could be. He successfully aroused the anger in Shuangxing's heart, but this anger came and went quickly. Normally, it's fine to vent it out, but if he really wants to use it to do things, I'm afraid he won't be able to do anything. Not caught.
It was not easy to be a prisoner of the integration movement. After dinner in the evening, Zhou Jinru finally discovered some signs. Their food was really poor. No wonder some people wanted to jump to Rhode Island.
He held a rough fork in his hand, poked a piece of cooked potato, and put it aside indifferently.
There is salt in the potatoes, and there is only salt. It feels like chewing wax in your mouth. It is enough as a staple food, but it has no dining experience.
