Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 2002: Seemingly identical multiple choice questions
The fact that two outsiders grabbed weapons and started fighting with the town police was a big deal in the normally lifeless Peanut Town - at least, that's what Lin Sanjiu thought.
After all, it was just dinner time, and there were gunshots and bullets flying across the sky and earth outside. How could the townspeople not be alarmed?
However, when she and Yu Yuan quietly walked through the alleys of the first few rows of houses and temporarily took shelter in the shadow of a house's roof, the sound coming from the window made them both feel a little agitated. I'm confused.
"Did you hear the sound just now?" A woman's slightly vague voice asked through the wall, "It seemed like a gunshot?"
"Why are you listening to the noise outside? Are you free?" The male voice, which seemed to be her husband's, gave her a lesson and then changed the subject: "Oh, old Pete is selling his land at the foot of the mountain. Come and see Look at this ad..."
The woman walked over rustlingly, and the couple talked for a while about the price of Old Pete's offer and the quality of the land. Then they talked about whether his son suffered from a mental illness that didn't like women. .
In the shadows, Lin Sanjiu and Yu Yuan looked at each other.
This time the data body Yu Yuan didn't even need to tell her, she realized that another key node of "shaping Yu Yuan's personality" was coming.
As to what Yu Yuan's reaction would be, Lin Sanjiu's answer came both strongly and naturally, so Yu Yuan frowned almost immediately. Even in the shadows, a line of confusion could be vaguely seen on his face.
"What's going on with these two people?" he asked in a very low voice.
Lin Sanjiu understood what he meant.
Just a few alleys away, countless pairs of police boots hit the floor tiles heavily. The shouts for people to check the alleys, the chatter on the intercom exchanging information, the fists smashing open the doors from house to house, and the order to do a "temporary inspection"... The fragments of the destroyed daily order are restless in the dusk. The ground undulates and flows.
But at this time, in the house behind them, the host and hostess were gossiping about other people, turning a deaf ear to everything outside the door.
"I saw it with my own eyes. As soon as Little Pete heard that Sammy was approved to study maps, he immediately diligently sent over a lot of paper and pen materials, and said that he would ask him for advice..." The male host laughed, Said: "Do you think it's disgusting? Old Pete thought they hid it well."
Knowing that the pursuers were searching alleys one after another, they should hurry up and leave immediately, but Lin Sanjiu and Yu Yuan felt as if they were under a spell, and neither of them moved.
Distantly, along with the muffled sound of the door being knocked open, a cry of surprise rang out in the night.
"Yes, we should send him to the hospital quickly..." The hostess's answer seemed a little absent-minded. She paused for a few seconds and asked in a low voice: "Listen...are we getting closer and closer?" Close? I heard before that two outsiders came and they couldn’t catch them..."
“What nonsense are you talking about? I didn’t hear it.” The husband said unhappily, “What can’t you catch? Don’t worry about things that are not yours to do. The most important thing for a person is to be yourself, live and work well, and don’t mess around. Say things that are unfounded."
Yu Yuan quietly touched Lin Sanjiu's shoulder, and when she raised her eyes, he made a gesture to indicate that it was time to leave.
Lin Sanjiu nodded silently, the two of them stood up with their waists bent, and quickly left from under the wall. Before the town police had time to close the circle, they passed through an old apartment building— —The population of Peanut Town is now depleted, and the houses for singles are not fully occupied, and most of the shared apartment buildings are empty; the two entered an empty apartment on the first floor, and climbed out through the back window. Into a cool and quiet night.
After leaving the area where the gunfight took place, except for the faint footsteps and orders coming from the horizon, it almost seemed like an ordinary night - no, it was even quieter than an ordinary night; it was obviously dinner time, but there was only Very occasionally, a dish would hit the cutlery.
It was as if most of the townspeople were holding their breath, waiting honestly, without listening or watching, for the night to pass and usher in a familiar day where nothing had happened.
"Aoye Town Mayor's Mansion is in this direction," Yu Yuan gestured to the front and whispered: "But the front is a dead end, blocked by a row of houses."
In the row of houses ahead, every room has lights on. Lin Sanjiu nodded, and the thought "Yu Yuan is not afraid of taking risks" appeared in his mind almost at the same time as his next sentence - "The fastest way is to break through the residence. What do you think?"
Little by little, she is calling her friends back.
As he approached a residential house in the corner, Lin Sanjiu looked at Yu Yuan's back and thought in a daze.
The sweat, stains and blood stains on his body mixed into a layer of steaming heat, as if melting the boundaries of time; the emotionless data body was gradually fading away, and the person she knew Yu Yuan finally walked out of the cold night again.
Yu Yuan was naturally ignorant of her emotions. After stopping at the door, he looked back at Lin Sanjiu and then knocked heavily on the door several times - surprising her.
"Who, who?" a man asked.
"Open the door," Yu Yuan ordered in a deliberately deep voice, "temporary inspection!"
As long as this order was given, it seemed that it was enough - the person behind the door didn't even ask to see his ID and opened the door immediately.
When the man saw Yu Yuan's casual clothes and the spear in his hand, his expression immediately changed. Yu Yuan never gave him a chance to react, but hit him in the chest with the muzzle of the gun, knocking him to his feet. He staggered back a few steps and retreated into the living room, threatening in a low voice: "Don't scream, otherwise it won't be the gun that hits you."
Lin Sanjiu entered the room and closed the door. She and Yu Yuan looked at each other and realized that there was someone else in the room.
In the back of the narrow and dark living room, under a closed door, yellow lights and low voices came out - the people in the room seemed not to hear anything outside, and still only focused on Xu Xu. Talking in a low voice.
"Who's inside?" Yu Yuan still pointed his gun at the man and asked in a low voice.
"It's me, my wife," the man stammered, "She, she's taking classes with the counselor..."
"Where is the back window? Where can I turn to the back of the house?" Yu Yuan asked.
The man waved his hand slightly in mid-air, crossing the living room table where the empty bowls and leftovers were placed, as if to show them how narrow the room was, and said: "There is only one room. Inside, there is a window leading to the alley behind..."
In other words, the number of people they had to put down and tie up increased from one to three.
The man didn't resist much, and was knocked unconscious by Yu Yuan's gun butt, turning into a rice dumpling on the ground **** with a sofa towel; he didn't know what class the person in the room was taking, or how attentive he was. , unexpectedly never noticed anything going on outside.
The two quietly approached the door of the house, and Lin Sanjiu pushed the door open a crack as silently as possible.
Unexpectedly, there was only one person in the room.
There was a woman sitting beside the bed in the center of the room. Even though she was right under his sight, Lin Sanjiu still didn’t know what she looked like—because there was a huge black square machine hanging on her face, like a mask. The same thing was stuck firmly on her face, even covering her mouth; the murmuring voice came from her earphones.
Is the so-called "class with a counselor" actually remote?
Lin Sanjiu felt relieved and quickly entered the house with Yu Yuan - the woman could not see or hear, but it gave them a good opportunity to climb out of the window without disturbing anyone.
When the two of them were about to reach the window, Yu Yuan suddenly pulled her clothes.
Lin Sanjiu turned her head without knowing why. She still didn't understand what Yu Yuan wanted her to see. After a few seconds, she realized that he didn't want her to see, he wanted her to listen.
The voice that came vaguely from the black machine earphones belonged to a man with a friendly and serious tone.
"...continuing out from Peanut Town, there are towns destroyed by civil war, drugs, and crime... Jobless refugees~IndoMTL.com~Drug dealers and gangs are always looking for prey... ...Just from the news they released last month, five innocent citizens died..."
Obviously, there was image information in the black machine; the woman's body trembled slightly, as if she had seen something terrible.
"In order to prevent the disaster from continuing to expand, Peanut Town implemented a rescue measure twenty years ago. Anyone who enters Peanut Town will be protected by Peanut Town, enjoy the safety and welfare of Peanut Town, and no longer have to be displaced. ... As a beneficiary of this policy, you have passed through the chaos and danger of the outside world, and now you have a stable and happy life, a husband who cares and loves you, and a comfortable and warm house..."
Lin Sanjiu raised his eyes and met Yu Yuan's gaze.
"She was also one of the people who was forcibly left behind..." She whispered and took a step towards the bed. If she looked carefully, she could even see the faint greenish-yellow color on the woman's body, which seemed to be bruises that had not gone away for a long time. "We have to save her——"
"Do you think I agree with your judgment? Will I stop you next?" Caught off guard, Yu Yuan asked in a calm data tone.
Lin Sanjiu was startled.
She had obviously met the multiple-choice question "Will Yu Yuan save the people who were forcibly left behind?" She had already met it once and had already made her choice; why did she come here again?
Is this time different from last time?
She must first find out what is different about the situation this time before she can know what kind of reaction Yu Yuan will make...
"You used to live a selfish life outside the town, and you didn't realize that you were deceived..." The person in the earphone continued to talk, "Peanuts Town gave you a chance to start from scratch..."
At this moment, the woman on the bed suddenly sniffed and nodded vigorously.
