Chapter 175: We are all humble monthly tickets)

【He Ao(Joey)】

[Permission Level: Ordinary Player]

[Physical fitness: 105(150)]

[Skills: Talent Sequence 272: Super Memory (Soul Binding) (D Level), Basic Firearms Proficiency (Soul Part)]

[Mechanical modification: none]

[Martial Arts: Refining Qi (Level D) (Cannot be used)]

[Character Skills: Talent Sequence 56: Assassin]

Physical fitness increased to 150, which was somewhat beyond He Ao's expectations.

The assassin he killed should have a physical fitness of around 140, and was strong in explosive power. However, the assassin should have been promoted through ordinary promotion, and there was no way to use his strength. Some of his strength was lost during the promotion process.

And He Ao was able to grow to 150, most likely because he used martial arts practice to guide and absorb these extraordinary powers.

150 points, plus the 137 points brought by the burst of super memory, He Ao's highest physical fitness can reach an astonishing 287 points. This number must have exceeded the limit of D level, but it is not clear how far it is from C level.

However, judging from the fact that assassins dare to assassinate Christos, the gap between D-class and C-class is not that huge.

Coupled with the two active extraordinary abilities of 'mental interference' and 'stealth', He Ao should now have the confidence to compete with the C-class.

If that doesn't work, you can still draw a magic circle and ask a good friend for help.

Ding--

The sound of the elevator arriving woke He Ao from his reverie.

It was already afternoon, and after getting familiar with the assassin's power, Ho Ao left Roger's clinic.

As the elevator door slowly opened, clumps of green lawns and broad sunlight appeared in He Ao's field of vision.

This is the largest cemetery in the Kwys district, Kwys Cemetery.

He Ao carried his suitcase and walked along the stone paved path, passing through the tombstones.

There are lush 'plants' on the roadside.

Of course, unlike the trees and green grass at Dumel National Cemetery, the 'plants' here are all 'imitations' made of plastic.

The entire floor is not a ventilated open floor like the Dumel National Cemetery, but looks like an ordinary office building. Sunlight shines in through huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and ventilation relies on a fresh air system.

Of course, are there any cemeteries with the same environment as Dumel National Cemetery?

Yes, you have to pay extra.

The cemeteries in Chenxi City are not bought or sold, only rented. The minimum lease period is twenty years, and the lease can be renewed upon expiration.

If a 'person' does not save enough money to renew the lease when it expires, and his children do not renew the lease for him, his urn will be taken out by the cemetery management company.

Together with other dead people who had no money to live in the cemetery, they were dragged to the wilderness, dug a big hole and buried.

The cemetery that Joey 'rented' from his parents is a double burial cemetery. This kind of cemetery occupies only a slightly larger area than a single burial cemetery, but the price is 1.5 times that of a single burial cemetery.

However, joint burial cemeteries are not limited to dead lovers or couples, but also two people who have never met before. They cannot afford to rent a cemetery alone, so they can only choose to partner up to build a joint burial cemetery.

After all, compared to a single-person cemetery, if the price of a joint burial cemetery is divided among one person, the price is equivalent to a 25% discount.

As for whether the cemetery management company is allowed to do this...

They have specially created a shopping interface for tombs on their official website, and you can get special discounts by promoting it to your friends and family.

There has even been a campaign where "friends and relatives can chop down a graveyard and stay for free".

In fact, they also launched cemeteries for four people, five people, and eight people, but the market response was not good.

Because people who are willing to fight for the cemetery with so many people don't mind whether they live in the cemetery. Their ashes may be scattered somewhere in Chenxi City, or they may be directly enshrined at home by their children.

However, in recent years, fewer and fewer people enshrine ashes at home.

Because in recent years, a number of supernatural movies have been released almost every year. In the movies, there is usually a character whose ashes are enshrined in his home. This character usually encounters some kind of frightening misfortune or bad luck.

In addition, there are a large number of self-media and tabloid articles published to popularize the dangers of enshrining ashes at home. For example, relatives cannot go to heaven and can only stay on earth, etc.

Well, there are ‘investments’ from cemetery management companies behind these movies and media.

He Ao stopped in front of the tombstone of Joey's parents. The names of Joey's parents were engraved on the tombstone, with a black and white photo embedded above the name.

The photo was selected from a family portrait taken not long ago. The parents were sitting on stools, smiling and looking forward, with expectations and yearning for the future shining in their eyes.

The photo originally included Joey standing nearby, but it was cut off by the staff of the cemetery management company.

He Ao stopped and looked at the black and white photo, and slowly put down the white carnation in his hand.

At the same time, a bouquet of white roses was placed next to his carnations.

He Ao raised his head and looked at the girl in a white dress with a few freckles beside him.

"Long time no see," the girl looked at him with a smile, and then put her hands away with some restraint, "You have lost weight."

"Long time no see."

He Ao nodded slightly, picked up his suitcase and prepared to leave.

Jessie looked at the thin and tall figure, and suddenly felt that the young man in front of her was so strange.

The original Joey felt like a warm spring breeze, bringing warmth and happiness to her.

But now Joey looks more like a repressed and crazy beast, full of violence and destruction.

"Joy, what are you going to do?" She looked at the back and couldn't help shouting, "Did you go to the Crown District the day before yesterday?! Violence can't solve any problems, and it can't bring uncles and aunts back to life. Can you

Don’t do anything stupid...”

At the end of the sentence, her voice was a little crying, "Come back soon, everyone is worried about you, everything will be fine...why..."

Some cold fingertips touched the side of her face, and the broad palm gently held up her cheek.

She raised her head blankly and looked at that familiar face.

The sunlight passed through the broken hair on the young man's forehead and fell on his somewhat sickly cheeks.

"We are all humble beings."

He Ao slowly scraped away the tears that had fallen down Jie Qian's face with his thumb, "But we should have the right to choose to live."

Joey's family is just the most ordinary and humble family, and his parents are just the most ordinary and humble workers.

They have no wealth, no rights, they are burdened with huge debts, they have nothing, but they still live a plain and happy life.

They just want to live peacefully.

So, why would anyone put their lives on the gambling table as a bargaining chip?

Why should they?

Why!?

He Ao took his hand away from Jessie's cheek, took out a small box containing a memory chip, and slowly put it into her hand.

Then he picked up the suitcase and turned around and walked towards the depths of the cemetery.

Those cold tombstones seemed like illusory figures, stopping to stare at his lonely back.

Violence cannot solve any problems, but it can solve the people who created the problems.

When they let others die easily, they should have been prepared to face death.
