…
Listening to the chaotic sound of advertisements in his ears, Feng Xue walked on the garbage-strewn ground with a very strange expression on his face. Although he already had a basic understanding of the "cyberpunk" world view, when he was "down to earth", he still understood What does it mean that "big men above don't use feet".
Well, literally.
He didn't know if this was the case in all places in the world, but at least in the city where he appeared, although there were many high-rise buildings and flashing neon lights, the buildings, old and new, all looked clean and tidy.
But the ground in this city is filled with all kinds of garbage.
Looking at the torn apart appearance, 99% of them were thrown directly from the sky. There were volatilized and corrupted drinks, unknown liquids, oily cleaning materials, and various scattered mechanical parts and things that I don’t know how to classify. of food residue.
Although it hasn't rained, you can see puddles of water everywhere on the ground. Although Feng Xue thinks there should be some people peeing in the open or even standing in front of the window to urinate after getting too much dopamine, but more of them should be flushed down the floor. The accumulated water flowing down from the body.
Fortunately, Feng Xue has actually been in the state of Kamen Rider transformation, and the air filtration system has filtered out most of the smell, otherwise he would really not be able to walk on this land.
It is not difficult to see from the sweeping robots lying on the floor that the city's solution to the garbage on the ground is probably just a problem of sweeping robots, but the fact is that no one is taking care of it at all. This makes Feng Xue clearly understand that this It is a world ruled purely by capital, or interests.
The building is clean and bright because of the advertisements and because the big shots will see them. But the big shots travel by flying cars and taking high-altitude highways, and will not go to the ground floor. People who know how to go to the ground floor will not be able to buy when they see the advertisements. Therefore, There is no need to spend money to clean it up.
Although there is no evidence, Feng Xue feels that this is the logic.
But having said that, there are people who are equivalent to mushrooms and weeds at the bottom of this steel jungle, such as scavengers who search for usable garbage in those high-altitude objects, and people who use this unmonitored place to deal with personal grudges. .
Feng Xue walked only a hundred meters before she saw two cockscomb heads dragging the corpse away. Most of their bodies had obvious traces of transformation, their eyeballs flashed with unnatural luster, the joints on their skulls and backs of necks, and the intricate work on their fingers. seams...
All this unfolded a bizarre new "ecology" in front of Feng Xue.
"Brother, I want to apply for an identity. Can you help me lead the way?" A coin popped out casually. The scavenger, who was about to criticize someone, immediately threw away the garbage bag in his hand, nodded and bowed:
"No problem, boss, if you have any needs, just ask me and I promise to find the best for you!"
"This is really..." Feng Xue looked at the flattering scavenger, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Although his coins can force transactions, they will not actually distort people's thinking (unless distorting thinking itself is part of the transaction) ), the transaction he proposed was just to lead the way, but the other party immediately showed such an attitude, which is undoubtedly a sign of the other party's usual attitude towards life.
"I need a full set of identity information, including files and terminals, the kind that can use public facilities." Feng Xue put her hands in her pockets, looking like a rich man who was experiencing life at the bottom. Although he couldn't see it, his crocodile skin bag and luxury pens, and even the label [money printing press] is actually playing a role.
Seeing his behavior, the scavenger immediately made up a rough character in his mind, and said in an increasingly humble tone:
"No problem, the Mobik Gang has this kind of business, I will take you there right away."
With the coin's effectiveness guaranteed, Feng Xue had no doubts. She followed the scavenger all the way, walked into a building, took the elevator to the 20th floor, and then went up to the high-altitude pedestrian street. After fifteen minutes, the two of them arrived at a building. A bar that doesn't look that "punk".
But after entering the bar, Feng Xue felt that he should apologize for his previous thoughts. Not to mention the decoration style, the alternating orange, blue, and purple lights that made people's eyes uncomfortable were very punk, so he turned it on directly The built-in filter in the armor made the eyes feel better.
However, Feng Xue did not comment too much on aesthetics. After all, with the electronic eyes of everyone in the world, maybe what others see is different from what he sees?
"Wild Dog, why are you here so early today? Why are you bringing a pretty boy with you?" Just after walking two steps, someone waved to the scavenger at the bar. Upon hearing this, the scavenger's face immediately became a little ugly. , gave Feng Xue a flattering smile, and then angrily scolded the person who spoke:
"Shut up, this is an honored guest!"
After hearing the scavenger's words, the area around the bar became noticeably quiet for a moment. At the same time, everyone seemed to be affected by Feng Xue's rich temperament, and their eyes became different.
Some people's eyes clearly showed a bit of greed and malice, some showed a little fear, and some women - at least those who looked like women showed a somewhat uncomfortable smile, and some even bold ones Walked up directly——
"Handsome brother, do you want to go back and forth?"
Feng Xue glanced at the unusual and weird hair color and the hard-looking front armor, turned her head in disgust, and gave the scavenger a look.
The scavenger immediately understood, and while using various slang words to scare away the guy who came up to him, he swiped the bar counter with a strange part on his right hand.
The bartender, who had been silent until now, looked up as if the robot had received instructions. He glanced at him, then took out a small sign and threw it to the scavenger:
"Box 333."
"Thanks!"
After the scavenger finished speaking, he took Feng Xue to the so-called box 333. As the door opened, the harsh and violent heavy metal reverberation sound effect that was far more harsh than the manic music in the hall spewed out from the crack of the door like a tsunami, almost Feng Xue slapped it on the ground.
grass! What is this [beep——] movement!
Feng Xue rolled her eyes, used the Taiyin Transformation Technique, and added several layers of noise-reducing structures to her ears. Then she felt better. When the people inside saw the door open, they immediately cast their gaze.
"Isn't this a wild dog?"
Words with a somewhat mechanical tone came from the sofa. A man holding an artificial beauty in each hand crossed his legs casually.
Feng Xue didn't bother to wait for the scavenger to report the incision, and casually popped out a coin:
"I want a legal identity, including a new personal terminal."
The man who was still holding the woman with both hands reached out and caught the coin almost as fast as Feng Xue could even react. A smile appeared on his face that seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation:
"If you are an ordinary person, these are enough, but I think a big shot like you doesn't want low-end products, right? How about three more, and I can help you sort out all the problems?"
"This is the deposit, and I will give you the rest later. In addition, the terminal must be wearable. I don't dare to use the gadgets from a place like this." Feng Xue, who was driving the Heart of the Mirror, knew very well that the other party's price was too high. But instead of bargaining, he just continued to make new demands.
The man was not surprised by this. He put the coin in his pocket and said with a smile:
"make a deal!"
