Chapter 123 Midsummer

"In midsummer or cold winter, even when sleeping, you must open one eye!"

This is a phrase that has accumulated wisdom. Two extreme climates will cause cities to fall into an overloaded operation, especially in winter, which will make things worse because steam can be less effective when the weather is too cold than when it is hot. This will increase the energy burden of the city and give some opportunities to some people.

Of course, this does not mean that there is no trouble in summer. In fact, the trouble in summer is not smaller than in winter, and sometimes it will be more troublesome.

High temperatures will cause things exposed to the air to rot and deteriorate quickly, breeding some terrible bacteria and even viruses. Mosquitoes will also like this time and season. They provide necessary transmission channels for various diseases and pollution free of charge, and all kinds of diseases like summer.

Every summer, the city of Aipeda and the entire empire, and the whole world, enters the disinfection season. The city’s middle class and wealthy people invested in multiple disinfection for the entire city to solve some problems such as mosquitoes and diseases. This is a tradition that has lasted for a long time.

At the same time, if the poor people living in the Lower City are unfortunately infected with some diseases, they do not have to bear any costs. For those infected with the epidemic, this refers specifically to people living in the Lower City, and the city will provide them with free treatment services.

Some people may be curious, why don’t people stand up and resist, even though the world is full of oppression, exploitation and all kinds of cruel things?

In fact, the answer is very simple, because people feel "happiness" and they feel happiness and continuous happiness every once in a while.

Free food - all kinds of cakes can prevent anyone from starving to death in the city, and then free seasonal disease treatment and more free social functions***, which makes it difficult for everyone to stand up and hold their weapons and shout out the slogans of princes, princes, generals and ministers.

In cooperating with popular entertainment to satisfy or even numb people's spirits, supplemented by the success of some lucky people, the whole world is immersed in the rhythm of "I haven't worked hard enough, but I don't want to work hard anymore". People are watching one miracle after another, gradually from chasing their dreams to being content with the status quo, why should they resist?

Because the baba meal is not delicious, is it because various benefits and free social mechanisms are incomplete?

Of course, none of these are, so there are no resistance, except for a very small number of kind people who are not aware of the truth, who are used by ambitious people.

A large number of city service personnel wearing anti-life suits began to carry out normal disinfection of sewers. Today, the temperature in Aepeda has reached 31 degrees. There is a strong stench under the manhole covers of some sewers, which makes people avoid it.

The children chased and jumped, followed behind the disinfection vehicle, looked at the staff who wrapped themselves tightly, pried open loose or tight manhole covers, and then pointed the large pipes on the disinfection vehicle at the sewer opening and pulled the switch.

A large amount of white disinfectant was sprayed into the sewer. This special agent mixed with some poisons in herbal medicine and some poisons produced through alchemy. It was mixed together and sprayed into the sewer. It could effectively kill all small living organisms in the white smoke.

Seeing the underground manhole covers on the opposite side of the road also began to smoke, the children suddenly laughed, and some people picked up some small stones and threw them towards the sewer manhole covers there, as if doing so would bring them more happiness.

But some people have noticed that this year's disinfection season has been around more than a month earlier than before.

The members of the Iron Brotherhood who could not avoid were panic like mice on the sewer, leaving the sewer further away in panic. Ham crawled out from below and walked out of the alley to look at the disinfection car in the distance, with a little confused expression. While he ordered his men to go and check what was wrong, he left alone cursed.

Not only Ham, but many people are asking why this year's disinfection season came so early, which made some people suffer a large loss before they could prepare - to catch, slaughter, sell sewer rat meat and rat oil temporarily lose their income. They used to store a batch in advance, but now it's too late, and the rats have gone deeper and must wait until it gets colder before they will come back.

In this city, as long as there is no news about the Upper City, there is basically no secret. Soon, the discovery of strange infectious diseases in the mid-city area will soon spread throughout the city.

People in the middle city think this is caused by people in the lower city. After all, only those dirty people in the lower city who don’t even take a bath will cause some strange diseases. Moreover, this disease, which is temporarily defined as “redspotted”, is very consistent with the image of some people in the lower city.

They always scratch here and there, and some black skin is scratched. This is the stereotyped impression of the Lower City area in people's eyes. For this reason, they suggested that the Urban Management Bureau disinfect the Lower City area and the Central City area in advance and solve the problems that everyone is currently facing as soon as possible.

Many people are unwilling to mention class, but when people need it to appear, it appears so clearly before people's eyes. It seems that class hatred is the best way to solve many unsolvable problems.

Damn Lower Town!

"The people here are so scary!" Gloria, who just came back from buying vegetables, sighed quietly. People always stared at others. If someone raised his hand, everyone around would hide far away. Even when buying vegetables, Gloria wanted to pay for buying vegetables, the stall owner would wipe off the fraction of the money as much as possible, and then let her throw the money into a copper basin filled with rolling boiling water in front of the stall. It is said that boiling water can disinfect this redness.

Everyone is keeping as far away as possible from the people around them, and no one dares to get close to each other. The gentle and elegant midtown area on weekdays has become a terrible place. The peace and happiness on people's faces have disappeared, replaced by a kind of scrutiny, as well as a look of caution and suspicion.

In their eyes, no one is safe.

Shire has also read newspapers these days. The problem of erythema is not a day or two. It has been a while. It is not like a sudden disease that broke out in some time in the past, causing a large number of casualties. It is more like a non-fatal and annoying little thing.

It is difficult to remove, but it is not fatal. I have never heard of anyone who moved to the cemetery to live in a cemetery because of redness. But this thing is really disgusting and uncomfortable. The itching that can never stop can not be stopped even if it is caught in blood.

In order not to let these people hurt themselves, many infected people were tied to the bed - if they were not concerned about them, they would rub against the ground like bugs, and finally rub off their skin.

"By the way, when will Charlie come back?" The girl chatted with Charlie while dealing with the ingredients in her hand. From the beginning, she was very adaptable to it now, she has not experienced much time. Maybe she is young and is more likely to accept something, and no one feels discomfort or awkward.

Charles put down the newspaper in his hand and changed it to another one. "It's about half a month left. The queen's itinerary has changed. They will come back after seeing the queen."

The newspapers in his hand are free, and the free period is only three months to half a year. Some daily newspapers, double daily newspapers, weekly newspapers and half a month. If you don’t watch TV, these things will be very good things to pass the time.

"Empress?" Gloria had a hint of fascination in her eyes. When the Empress came last time, she also tried to see the Queen's style, but there were too many people, and the Queen's convoy would not go around the Lower City before leaving. They went directly to the Central City, which made the convoy's route full of people. Gloria stood behind the crowd and gave up. She couldn't squeeze in at all.

Everyone, especially girls, want to take a look at the Queen. This emotion is particularly strange. The Queen and most people will never have any connection in their lifetime, but people just want to see her, and Gloria also wants to.

She quickly came to her senses and continued to pack up the ingredients in her hands. While washing the food, she asked, "I remember Shari said, Shari, you are the reporter who took photos of her with the queen throughout the journey, right?"

Shargo is the name girl calls Shar in the past few days, so she is closer.

He responded, and the girl asked, "I heard from others that the queen is gentle and not strict at all, right? I really didn't expect that such an amazing person would be a very gentle person!"

Thinking back to the little secret between the Queen and Earl Liszt, Her Majesty the Queen is not just a gentle person!

"If you have the chance, you will meet the living queen!"

The girl's mood obviously rose. She hummed a small song and began to process the ingredients. She seemed very sure what Charles said would definitely become a reality.

But then again, the brother and sister have created miracles, and it is not a problem to create some miracles. Shire even solved her "identity" problem.

Originally, if people in the Xiacheng District want to obtain permanent residence in the Zhongcheng District, they need a guarantee for a Zhongcheng District residents who have not violated any laws within three years and filed an application. After approval, the girl can get her identity in the Zhongcheng District. But Shir took the girl to the management bureau and filled out a form and completed it. This also gave the girl a kind of honey trust in Shir. Since it was what he said, it would definitely be realized.

She put a large ingredient in the pool, mainly meat. Charles found that his appetite has become bigger recently. If he doesn't eat beef, he will get hungry and stomachache in the second half of the night, so he will ask the girl to buy more beef every day.

"Charge... can you come?"

There was something tickling in the girl's voice. Charles threw the newspaper onto the coffee table, "Come on!"
