"...We still need to hold a meeting? Let the neighborhood committee go to the block election meeting. What does it have to do with our Winter Association?"
"Ah? Pay protection money?"
"Oh, that's okay, I'll go there tomorrow."
A girl with a pair of furry bear ears on her head was walking struttingly on the street, the new brain computer around her neck showing the screen.
A pair of red wired headphones connected to the brain and computer extend upward from the neck and are inserted into the two small ears on the top of the head.
A bit cute.
However, the girl's voice is very boyish, hard and bold, and there is no visible rise and fall in her chest. If she cuts her hair shorter, she might be mistaken for a boy.
Looking at the school uniform tied around her waist and the schoolbag on her shoulder, she seems to be still a student.
The school uniform has the words "Chernobog Workers' Secondary School No. 1" written on it, a red scarf is tied around the neck, and the long bangs are dyed with a few strands of red.
She seems to be just an ordinary little girl.
However, if members of the surrounding student associations saw her, they would most likely either run away or make a 90-degree bow and say something like "big sister".
Thanks to the praise of her friends who had received hundreds of beatings from girls, she gradually gained a reputation after beating all the unbeatable opponents in several nearby blocks in the past two years.
Her name is Lin Dong.
The Winter Club is the student club she belongs to.
Ursus is a very interesting country. This country is one of the very few huge empires in the world of Terra that still retains a nominal monarchy system.
However, in the past two years, under the impact of various institutional revolutions, Ursus' local rule has become increasingly shaky. The central court's control over surrounding cities has continued to decrease, and many problems have arisen throughout Ursus.
social issues.
If you have to make a metaphor, you can basically compare Usas to a community, and the court is the property of the community, and the residents of Usas are the owners of the community.
After the property becomes obsolete, problems will naturally arise in water supply, power supply, and parking lot regulation, and conflicts will naturally arise between community owners.
Conflicts between residents cannot be resolved if the property has become obsolete, so residents need to organize some organizations on their own initiative to solve the problem.
The Ursus Student Association is a special product born under such a background.
If you must make a comparison, you can use the analogy of the progressive youth associations during the Republic of China.
Of course, compared to these progressive youths, the Ursus student association is actually closer to some dynamic adult associations, but it is cleaner in nature.
However, none of the neighborhood protection fees, resident coordination fees, community water bills, and electricity bills will be paid. We just don’t touch bottom-line industries such as pornography, gambling, and drugs.
The students who formed these associations were naturally not good people. They were all what were once called gangsters.
Some associations have bosses behind them, while others don't, but even the bosses behind them are mostly not capable characters.
What I have to admit is that even among a ragtag group of people, there are still a few outstanding talents who shine brightly.
Winter is one of them.
As early as when she was young, Lin Dong noticed that she seemed to have strange powers that were beyond ordinary people, which allowed her to move in and out of the crowd like Zhao Zilong from Changbanpo when she was fighting in groups with older children.
Last year, when she reached adulthood at the age of 16, Lin Dong went to the local assessment agency in Chernobog to have her potential level notarized.
The results were not surprising at all.
Potential: five stars
Suitable occupation: Pioneer
The force and speed sensitivity are several times higher than that of normal adults.
This also gave her the courage to conquer nearly half of Chernobog's streets.
However, due to her grandfather's good education, although Lindong has established a 'kingdom' that most dynamic clubs cannot reach, she has never regarded herself as a special person.
When grandpa taught Ling Dong, he said that innate strength is essentially just one of the traits of some human beings, just like running fast, jumping high, having good body fragrance, staying up all night without losing hair or getting acne.
Although special, it is not noble.
Her life has always been peaceful - she should go to school, dance and dance, occasionally fight to regulate her endocrine system, but she still has to live her life.
Even the protection money collected was distributed to students from poor families in the association as food money.
Therefore, leaving aside the combat effectiveness of the Cold Winter Association, in terms of number of people, it is one of the largest among all the student associations in Ursus.
However, as the territory becomes larger, there are many things to take care of, which is a bit troublesome.
It would be great if I could find a dog-headed military advisor.
Lin Dong hung up the phone and scratched the fluffy round tail behind his butt with some irritation.
As a result, as soon as he turned an intersection, the irritable Dong Dong's eyes suddenly lit up.
Four or five slutty gangsters, with their school uniforms tied around their waists and their long hair dyed with several strands, were kicking a little girl hard.
Looking at you dressed like this, you are not a good person.
Let's vent our anger first.
"What are you doing!"
Lindong stood at the intersection with his hands on his hips, stretched out his index finger and shouted loudly.
"Let that girl go!"
"According to the second sub-section of Article 3 of the "Neighborhood Management Measures" of the Lindong Association, when local residents have conflicts, they go to the local association to mediate. Otherwise, it will be regarded as provoking troubles and will be treated as provoking the Lindong Association!"
“You want to be kicked out of the neighborhood!”
Lin Dong put down the small notebook in his hand and raised his head calmly, waiting for the few gangsters opposite him to raise their heads in surprise.
This is the one she memorizes most skillfully.
For no other reason than to become famous as a teacher.
Before giving a spanking, you must first tell the other person the reason for the spanking, so as to prevent it from happening again next time. It is definitely not because she wants to vent her anger on others.
Look at the quality of our Winter Association!
Be polite and courteous!
"Who?!"
"According to Article 1 and Sub-4 of the "Neighborhood Governance Measures" of the Lundong Association, outsiders are not allowed to interfere at will when the Lundong Association handles neighborhood affairs. Do you want to be the enemy of Lundong!"
"That's right! According to the Special Treatment Measures of Article 6, Sub-2 of the "Neighborhood Governance Measures" of the Cold Winter Association, limited violations can be limited under special circumstances. You only need to write a report and submit it to the block level after completion! We have not made any exceptions.
!”
The few gangsters opposite didn't even raise their heads. They were all more skilled at memorizing the school rules than the disciplinary committee members. They clicked and clicked every measure and regulation.
Um???
Lin Dong was stunned for a moment.
...Is that what it says here?
How come they are as skilled as me?!
Until then, the gangsters who gathered around and kicked the little girl seemed to have reacted - the voice just now seemed a bit familiar?
Turning his head, he saw Lin Dong standing in front of him, looking stupid and at a loss for words. He flipped through his notes vigorously to find something to rebut, but he couldn't understand it even after a long time of flipping through it.
When the gangsters saw that the one who had just scolded them was their boss, they immediately did not dare to move. They stopped kicking each other and all lowered their heads, waiting to be scolded.
But after waiting for a long time, the boss didn't say anything. A gangster standing in the front row secretly glanced at the notes in Lin Dong's hand:
"Sister, please turn back two pages. Article 7 and Article 5 say: Special handling will be given to special circumstances. When there is a conflict between grassroots executives and upper-level managers, priority shall be given to obeying the arrangements of managers."
This gangster had a red armband tied on his left arm with the four characters "Executive Member" written on it. He looked at Ling Dong with a very sincere expression.
"You can use this regulation to directly govern ours."
Lin Dong also scratched his butt sincerely,
"Oh! This one can still be used in this way, thank you!"
"Hehehe, thank you for your good teaching."
The law enforcement committee member in the front row even laughed stupidly.
As a result, Lin Dong turned around and slapped him on the head with a 'pop' sound, making him stunned.
"Still laughing?! How many times have I told you! Enforce the law in a civilized manner! Enforce the law in a civilized manner! Don't hit people casually! We are a high-quality student association, not some family gang on the street, but a progressive association! What about you?
How do you implement them one by one?"
"Such violence! How do you manage to maintain a harmonious relationship with the community like this? How do you make the old residents of the neighborhood trust us?"
"ah?!"
Lindong opened his eyes and yelled at him in a long voice, pointing at several people's noses and scolding them fiercely.
Several law enforcement committee members immediately fell silent.
"Get out of the way! Let me see how they are doing."
"Big sister!"
"What's wrong with you?"
Lin Dong looked up at him angrily.
The law enforcement committee member in the front row explained with an aggrieved look: "He is an infected person, and the nearby residents voted collectively to ask us to remove him... In the past few days, because of him, the residents have not
Anyone who dares to walk this way is afraid of being infected by him."
"We came here to persuade him before, but he would come back here the next day. We had no choice but to beat him and drive him away."
The girl surrounded in the middle remained silent.
Lin Dong glanced at her from a distance and frowned slightly.
Infected person...
When it comes to matters involving them, it is always difficult to deal with them.
Rejecting infected people has almost become one of the traditions of the Ursus people.
Whether it is traditional public opinion channels or emerging media, as long as they want to take root in the country of Ursus, their propaganda against infected people must be vicious and bottomless.
Various titles such as hybrids, walking infectious agents, special mutants, new cancers, spreaders of death, etc. are all being assigned to them.
Various rumors also emerged.
As an old feudal empire, Ursus' culture is not as open as Victoria's, and is much more closed and exclusive. The emergence of this kind of public opinion is natural.
Although Lin Dong is aware of the urinary nature of the Ursus media, she has grown up in such a public opinion environment since she was a child. When facing infected people, she will inevitably feel a little at a loss.
"..."
"How did you deal with them before?"
Lin Dong turned to ask them, and the law enforcement committee member just lowered his head: "Some were beaten and driven out, some were beaten to death by the residents with sticks, and the bodies were poured into cement pipes for disposal, and some were burned.
."
"We have never killed anyone! It was a spontaneous act by the residents."
As if he was afraid that Lin Dong might misunderstand something, he immediately explained,
"...We don't dare to take action either."
From beginning to end, the beaten girl just huddled in the corner and listened silently without saying a word.
It wasn't until he heard "burned" that his eyes flickered for a moment, and then returned to calmness.
The infected people in Ursus are in the most miserable situation in the entire world of Terra.
Lin Dong looked down at the girl, and seemed to vaguely see the mountain of corpses and bones behind these words.
She pursed her lips slightly, lowered her head, and asked the girl from three or four meters away.
"Why are you squatting here and not leaving?"
"..."
The girl curled up and glanced at her with her bruised eyes, then looked back, her voice as low as a mosquito.
"......Hungry."
"But these are all residential areas, right? There's no food, and there will be many people who hate you and beat you, so you don't want to leave?"
Lin Dong's questions are as straightforward as her temperament.
The girl weakly pointed at the open-air garbage disposal plant not far away.
"...At night, there are garbage trucks."
"Eat, old quilt."
Lin Dong looked at the 'quilt' that was wrapped in three or four layers of clothing but had almost no cotton wool, and then smelled the strange smell on her body.
You can basically imagine how this eight or nine-year-old girl survived the winter in Ursus.
but......
Lin Dong lowered his head and looked at the girl's dirty little face.
On the right side of her forehead, there is a piece of Origin Stone about the size of a fist.
Gray and bright, with a faint twinkle of light.
Looking up, many residents in the surrounding old residential buildings were stretching their necks to look down from the windows.
Probably waiting for their 'justice'.
Lin Dong looked at the girl from a distance, hesitated for a while, turned around and left, and then came back immediately.
When I came back, I was holding a thick new coat and a pair of brand new fur boots in my left hand, a full metal kettle in my right hand, and a large bag of sealed food to resist hunger and hunger.
After coming back, she still stood three or four meters away, placed these things in front of the girl one by one, and then bowed deeply towards the girl.
"sorry."
The meaning is very clear.
——Please leave here.
The girl took a deep look at Lingdong, then at the people who had just kicked her around, and then looked back at the residents upstairs who stretched their heads to watch the monkey show.
There is no expression on the dirty little face.
She just got up weakly and dragged everything three or four meters away from the cold winter without saying a word. Then she silently put on her fur boots and put on her new coat.
Probably because she was weak after being hungry for too long, all the girl's movements seemed slow.
Finally, she nodded towards Winter, as if she wanted to say thank you, but stopped, and then continued to walk away silently, dragging the oil paper bag and the warm kettle.
The thick long coat covered her knees, almost dragging to the ground, and her fur boots hit the snow one after another.
When the girl walked away, suppressed or unsuppressed cheers immediately came from the surrounding residents upstairs, as if they had won a great victory.
Lin Dong kept bowing and did not get up.
It seems that he is afraid of seeing the girl go away.
Not far enough away to see them.
She looked at the ground silently, thinking about something rarely in her mind.
Lin Dong has always felt that her integrity and sincerity are her strengths, and she will admit when she is wrong.
But when she doesn't know whether she is right or wrong, how should she recognize it?
On this day, Lin Dong thought about it for a long time, but never figured out the problem.
It seems like we need to find a dog-headed military advisor as soon as possible.
