In the hotel room, Zhou Jinru put down his suitcase, walked to the window, and looked outside. The balcony had good lighting and faced the street. He could easily see people walking on the road.
He stretched out his hand to close the curtains, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Silver Fox sitting beside the bed, and the little girl was dangling her short legs, wondering what she was thinking.
"this is my room."
"I know."
Zhou Jinru pursed his lips. His subtext was that you should go out, but the latter had no such idea at all.
Silver Fox tilted his head: "Did I do anything to make you sorry?"
"currently there is not."
"That will happen in the future. I'm a little curious about where you are from."
Could it be that people like Kelsey have studied time travel?
Zhou Jinru felt that they all had their own unimaginable heritage, and he had just temporarily lost these.
Silver Fox tapped his fingers lightly on the sheets and said seriously: "We have lived for a long time and have seen basically everything we should have seen, but Kelsey's old cat is an exception. Her existence may be greater than ours." It's been a long time, but this is the first time I've seen you in a situation like yours.
In the long years of exploration in the past, we found some special situations, and it later proved that we are not the only ones pursuing the real secrets in this land. Have you heard of the Alpine base? "
Zhou Jinru only knew about the Alps, he had never been there, and he had no idea what the so-called base was.
"It seems there was an accident. You are now as clean as a blank piece of paper, and all the contents were filled in later."
Silver Fox covered his forehead and seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhou Jinru's current state.
She sighed and added, "I can't tell you now that the person responsible for you is Kelsey. If she doesn't do anything, I can't cross the line."
Boom, boom, boom.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the previous concierge came from the door.
"Mr. Cotterman, there is a small gift here. Can you send it to me now?"
Silver Fox jumped down from the bed, walked quickly to the door, and opened the door. Her appearance startled the concierge. Within a few minutes, two boxes of cream cakes were placed in front of them.
"Oh, I know what this is. The hotel has cooperated with a cake shop and will give new guests a cake."
"Why two copies?"
The silver fox bit the spoon and said bitterly: "You don't want to see me so much? Obviously, there is another one for me. Do I look like a solitary eater?"
Zhou Jinru sat opposite her, looking at the cake with a piece of cream missing, thinking to himself that from Yinhu's tone, it seemed that she had just arrived in Gotham, and meeting him was just an accident.
Girls like cakes and other things. When he was in Rhode Island, his share was basically given to Amiya. When he was in Pingpan, Xu Yu would solve the problem for him without any courtesy. Even now, he still doesn't like it. Like sweet taste.
"I forgot, you don't like sweets."
"Well, you can take it all."
Silver Fox stopped holding the spoon in his hand and asked doubtfully: "What have you experienced to become so quiet?"
Zhou Jinru was even more puzzled: "What do you mean?"
"In my memory, you are someone who doesn't care about anything, as if everything is illusory in your eyes, just like when playing a role-playing game, death for the protagonist is just as simple as starting over from the starting point. It’s also very bad, even Kelsey can’t stand you.”
Is it that bad?
Zhou Jinru shook his head: "The me you see now is the real me. I don't even know what happened before."
Silver Fox was doubtful.
Judging from Kelsey's attitude back then, it seemed that she had no doubt about the true identity of the man in front of her. How could she be sure that the soul in this body was not a devil?
Unknowingly, Silver Fox took another bite of the cake, and the cream was basically scraped off.
"Don't worry, it's all yours."
Zhou Jinru reached out and poured her a glass of water.
Silver Fox muttered: "I'm really not used to you being like this..."
Half an hour later, the cake box was in a mess. After eating, Silver Fox narrowed his eyes and felt a little tired.
"So you've only been in Gotham for one day?"
"A day and a half to be exact, ah, I'm so full, why are you asking?"
Zhou Jinru leaned back, folded his hands on his abdomen, and said with no expression on his face: "I want to ask how Gotham plans to deal with those Sakaz people now."
"do not you know?"
"I've only been here three hours, and I didn't even know where I was at first."
The silver fox covered her mouth and couldn't help but burped. It was completely unattractive, but she didn't care at all.
"This incident started half a month ago. The cause is so simple that you can't imagine it. It was just because two citizens were quarreling. One of them was a Sakaz man. They attracted the patrolman, and the patrolman gave the other a brief education. People brought the Sakaz back to the police station, which caused dissatisfaction among other Sakaz.”
When Zhou Jinru heard this, he basically understood it and even guessed what happened next.
Gotham seems civilized and free, but in fact it is full of discrimination and oppression against Sakaz and infected people. The differential treatment between ordinary citizens and Sakaz people is just a trigger, igniting the long-standing feud between the two parties. contradiction.
Silver Fox shrugged helplessly: "If it were as simple as you think, Gotham would not have ordered the deportation of Sakaz, and they would have been detained in a quarantine area."
Zhou Jinru said calmly: "The rulers who established concentration camps should be hanged."
"Listen to me, the Sakaz man who was imprisoned in the police station received support from his compatriots, because at that time Gotham still wanted to maintain its freedom and tolerance on the surface. Those Sakaz men thought this was As a manifestation of fairness, he actively supported and tried to use his own influence to change the unfair judgment. Unexpectedly, he encountered a greater counterattack.
Although Gotham is known as a free city-state, it has its own parliament, which has supreme power. The parliamentarians set the rules for the city, and they have the final power of interpretation. "
It's over.
This was what Zhou Jinru was thinking. The implication of Silver Fox's words was already very clear. The Sakaz people did not expect that they would face not only an unfair judgment, but also a fatal blow from the ruler.
"This is one of the reasons why I came here. Zhou, you are a smart man and you should know what this means."
"Who is the person behind you?"
"Victoria."
Zhou Jinru closed his eyes: "Victoria intends to eat up the market gap left by the Sakaz people."
For example, in the hotel under his feet, the former owner had been deprived of all his property, and even his life and safety was threatened, while jackals that smelled blood were plundering fresh flesh and blood.
