Chapter 289 History of the Development of the New World
After getting off the dormitory building, Xu Hai was still confused.
He followed Bai Junya (a girl with an expressionless face) and Tong An (a carefree girl), and Xiaoshou's roommate Ding Chao was beside him.
Bai Junya, who was walking in front, glanced at the restless Xu Hai, frowned, and turned to go to the cafeteria. Tong An asked in surprise: "Aren't you going to drink outside the school? Junya, you went in the wrong direction.
”
"Xu Hai doesn't want to go. Let's just have something to eat. We have to go to the laboratory later."
Although this little girl has facial paralysis, she is very good at reading. Xu Hai smiled knowingly.
On the way to the cafeteria, Xu Hai saw groups of men and women, which were far different from the combinations of men, women, and couples he imagined. Although he was puzzled, Xu Hai still endured it.
Settle down and act like a normal person.
However, when he passed by a public bathhouse and saw from the window a man and a woman washing their bodies there as if nothing had happened, just separated by a wooden board, he was still off guard.
Everyone treats each other as the same sex, there is nothing to peep on, this is incredible.
When he shifted his gaze, he saw three or four men and women walking towards each other, arm in arm.
It seemed that he was just a freshman or sophomore. These college students also saw him and were suddenly a little depressed. One of them, a girl with a slender waist wearing a skirt, asked kindly: "Senior, is there something wrong with us? Why?
You look at us like this."
When Xu Hai didn't know how to explain, Tong An looked back, quickly pulled him, and apologized to several students: "Ah, I'm sorry, fellow juniors, you senior did an experiment last night.
I came back in the middle of the night and I’m still awake, haha~”.
"Oh, that's it."
The girl with a slender waist was about to say something, but the male roommate beside her hugged her waist and pulled her away.
"Don't ask. It's very difficult to pass the postgraduate entrance examination in our school. Those who can pass the examination are not normal people. Their brain circuits are different from mine. Come on, let's go back and take a shower. We have a self-study class tonight.
”
Xu Hai: "...".
He was speechless. Although the boy spoke very quietly, his body did not have any spiritual energy to use. It was just an ordinary body. However, Xu Hai, who could still use the six-sense talent, naturally heard what the boy said.
This time, he seemed out of tune with the world.
This strange "customs and customs" may be related to the tree heart he is looking for.
But he couldn't be sure. Maybe it was just that this area was special, and other places were normal...what a ghost.
Normal style of painting, those with such customs and habits of men and women giving and receiving.
He wanted to do an experiment, so he looked at Tong An, who was pulling him. She was a girl with a carefree personality. She was easy to coax at first sight, so bullying her shouldn't be a big problem.
Thinking of this, Xu Hai imitated the way the boy hugged his roommate. Xu Hai reached out and hugged Tong An. This careless girl is only a little shorter, only 1.6 meters, but she has to say that she has a good figure and a protruding lordosis.
The back is curved and the body is unusually soft.
When she was hugged by Xu Hai, she broke away from him awkwardly and glared at him: "What are you doing today? You always don't play according to the routine. You haven't done so many moves before."
"How did you feel when I held you in my arms just now?"
"What can it be? I'm just not used to it."
Tong An turned over some silver and turned around to catch up with the two people in front of her, but before that she warned Xu Hai: "Junya is a bit of a germaphobe, don't treat her like this."
"But it's okay. You two have the same instructor and came from the same school. Even if she dislikes you, she will never fall out with you."
Full of confusion, Xu Hai had a meal with them in the cafeteria. After finishing the meal in two or three minutes, he said, "I haven't recovered from my cold yet, so I'm going back to the dormitory to rest. You can eat as much as you want."
After saying that, he ran away. He had to go back to find out what the moral values of this world are, whether it has always been like this, or whether it was caused by some kind of change.
"He's so lively, he looks like he has a cold."
Tong An slandered, and then said: "By the way, Junya, we are moving to a new dormitory tomorrow. Can we ask to live together?"
"Follow the arrangements of the college. All this is for the sake of equality. If we ask for it, wouldn't those who don't ask for it suffer a loss?"
"Okay, you're right. But I heard that the new dormitory has four-person rooms, so why not move in? It's because the school has recruited too many doctoral students, so we have to give up the double rooms."
Back in the dormitory, Xu Hai quickly turned on his computer and clicked on the browser to inquire about the history, customs and other knowledge of his country.
In the end, he really discovered something unusual. It is now 2122 AD. About a hundred years ago, humans suddenly lost their ability to reproduce in the body. Except for the DINK family, the whole world fell into panic.
In 2023, the in vitro cultivation industry will develop rapidly.
But this was only a drop in the bucket. The number of humans around the world was rapidly decreasing, and this situation continued for the next two decades.
In 2043, except for the three million new babies created by the few test tube technologies, there will be no naturally born young people under the age of twenty in the world.
During this period of time, the education industry collapsed and schools were deserted. House prices in international metropolises, which started at 100,000 yuan, fell to the bottom in an instant, and countless real estate companies went bankrupt.
And all this is just the beginning. All industries that serve young people are quickly withering like the sun after dusk.
In 2063, the world has entered a highly aging society. There are 10 million young people, including 2 million minors, who need to support about 5 billion elderly people. Retirement is forced to be postponed again and again. By 2065, I think,
The retirement age has been extended to eighty-five.
The price of being single and aristocratic and not willing to lower the quality of life for the sake of children is still coming quietly. Those families who have raised children when they were young can still survive in this bleak era, while most others feel that they are not capable.
Instead of raising children, it is better not to have children than to let them come into this world and suffer. Families that are single and entertain themselves until death mostly end up dying of illness in their own huts, and they are not recognized by outsiders until their bodies stink.
When the population dropped rapidly and human civilization began to regress, the machine "Mother" came out. This was an epoch-making machine that opened a new era.
Women cheer for getting rid of the shackles of childbearing, and men don’t have to worry about high betrothal gifts.
It's just that the birth of new things is not always smooth sailing. The birth of a "mother" gives individuals the qualification to have offspring. For this reason, although the population has begun to recover, it has fallen into another crisis.
Since women have always been responsible for reproduction, their survival ability is slightly lower than that of men. During the thirty years of development, the ratio of men to women has become seriously imbalanced. Looking up in schools of all grades, only a few girls can be seen.
