"Raeder, how is life outside? Is it better and more comfortable than at home?"
"No, not..."
"Then why do you want to escape? Now you should understand that only the garden I gave you is safe. The outside world is extremely dangerous everywhere."
"That's right, but...but..."
"Go home, I won't blame you for your wanton behavior. This chaotic environment is not suitable for you."
"I……"
Raeder had a lot to say in her heart, but as soon as she saw her father's appearance, she felt that the generator was locked and could not speak at all. She wanted to refute what her father said, but her thinking module unconsciously told her father
That's right, she should be obedient.
"Why don't you speak your mind."
Sai asked from the side with a cold voice. But Raeder found a glimmer of hope in this cold voice. She knew that there was someone supporting her and that she was not alone. A little spark of courage was deep in her mind.
was ignited.
"I don't want to go back, father..."
"Why, is it a happy thing for you to survive like a mouse outside?"
"No...no, I'm not like a mouse..."
Raedel refuted her father's words, although her voice was very low.
"In my opinion, you just live a humble and funny life like a mouse. Is this kind of life what you want? It seems that I should not allow you to be exposed to messy information at all. Your mind has been corrupted by this dirty world.
Contaminated."
"It's not like this, father, it's not like this... This world is very dirty, but it could have been less dirty... Look at this Green Forest City, isn't it much better than our city? Why do you want to let it go?"
What will the city look like?"
Raeder recalled her experiences so far. Although she didn't understand why cities were so different, she knew that differences existed and that every city was not exactly the same.
"You should think about it. The exclusive thinking module I created for you is not just for you to think wildly. You have seen the conditions in Green Forest City, and what we have there is nothing but mines. Is it possible?
You want me to use half of the city’s assets to come here and buy trees to plant on the street?”
"Not such a father! I have seen how people live in the Dark Night District, and I also know how people here live. They are not better than our citizens, but they live a more comfortable, energetic and hopeful life.
,Why can’t we let our city become like this?”
"Why do you ask such a stupid question? Sure enough, being in contact with stupid people will make you stupid. The people in the Dark Night District are mediocre people who are of little use. I have provided them with shelter and jobs.
Let them continue their meaningless lives, what else do you want me to do."
The old rich man's tone had no ups and downs, just like the electronic synthesized voice, and there was no anger at all.
"They...how can their lives be meaningless? There are no meaningless people in this world..."
"Then tell me, what is the meaning of their lives? Most modern work can be completed by tireless robots. We only need a small number of elites to maintain the operation of a city. These useless people themselves are a burden, I
Giving them a chance to live is already kind. Tell me what the meaning of their existence is."
"They...they..."
Raeder was at a loss for words. Although she had been living among ordinary citizens during this period, she did not have much interaction with other people. On the one hand, it was because she wanted to hide her identity, and on the other hand, she always felt that in her heart
She feels that she is superior to others and puts herself in the position of an observer. She does not understand the joys and sorrows of ordinary citizens, nor does she know whether these people have their own dreams. What she sees is only the surface, and what she knows is limited to
"Ordinary citizens live a very hard life." Whether they are street gangsters or bounty hunters, she only sees these people using their lives to make money, and knows nothing about the others.
"If you want to know, you can ask them yourself instead of asking your ignorant daughter."
Sai said calmly.
"Ms. Sai, I think it is impolite to rashly intervene in conversations between family members, and it is not in line with your noble status."
The old rich man looked at Sai Yi, with a slight dissatisfaction between his eyebrows.
"Why do you think I'm noble, sir?"
Sai placed his shield on the ground and stood with his arms on his chest.
"A person who can possess such an incredible body must not be an ordinary person. Of course I will show respect to powerful forces."
"Unfortunately, I have never felt that I or my family have a distinguished status. We are just special and not very polite."
Sai flipped up his hair and raised his chin slightly to show his arrogance.
"It seems that you are stronger than I thought. Only the truly strong will not be afraid of power. Miss Sai, I am very grateful to you for taking care of my daughter during this time. I am willing to form a cooperative relationship with you for mutual benefit."
Win-win. There are no irreconcilable conflicts between us."
"Of course you can, but I'm afraid the conditions we offer are unacceptable to you. I mean, the controllers of all the cities on this planet are unacceptable."
"You want to unite all the forces, right?"
"It's not integration, it's acceptance."
"This condition is indeed a bit excessive, but we will never sit still and wait for death."
"You have no choice. You have seen our power."
"Miss Sai has indeed shown amazing strength, but we are not without our trump cards."
"Are you referring to the available satellites and nuclear weapons, or these nanorobots that can destroy the world?"
"Miss Say does know a lot."
The old rich man's expression became more solemn.
"What? Satellites and nuclear weapons? Didn't these things disappear long ago in the past era? Are they still there now?"
Raeder's cognition suffered another impact. Along the way, she always encountered things that destroyed her outlook on life, as if she had been living a lie before.
"You have indeed been living a lie. The centipede is dead but not stiff. Such a glorious and glorious era is not so easy to be completely destroyed. You have already seen automatic weapons that are hundreds of years old, so some other things have survived.
It's also reasonable. If there is no long-distance communication available, how do you think cities can communicate with each other, and how can people like your father conspire with other controllers?"
Sai said without mercy.
"Miss Sai, please don't bewitch my daughter. This is not decent."
"Then sir, you think it's a decent thing to invade other worlds, is that right?"
"Invading other...worlds?"
Raeder looked at Sai blankly, vaguely feeling that she understood something.
"No, you don't understand. It's not what you think. I'm not here to seek revenge from the invaded world. I'm just here to find the source of the problem and solve it."
