Evolution of Beyond the Stars Volume 1: The Beginning of Eden o1197 Is there something decent to steal?
Zhang Yi frowned... If he had heard words like this before, Zhang Yi would have definitely thought that Wang Fugui was talking about the fallacy that "there is a right to robbers".
But after listening to what he just said, Zhang Yi felt that it was not that simple.
And if you think about it carefully, in fact, the "respectable stealing" mentioned by Wang Fugui is not that complicated...
Wang Fugui was considered a well-known "character" in the "Thieves" organization, which shows that he was born with talent in this area, but he did not use it in the right way.
It stands to reason that if Wang Fugui can be given a suitable occasion, a thief like him might become a "talent".
Thinking about it this way, it is actually very imprecise to give "stealing" an unseemly characterization one-sidedly.
But after all, Wang Fugui’s foundation is not clean anymore. What can Zhang Yi do to help him now?
Seeing that Zhang Yi stopped talking, Wang Fugui poured Zhang Yi another glass of wine, and then said: "Brother Yi, I don't have much chance now, and even if I do, my hands won't allow me to do anything else...
...However, Xiaoou and the others still have a great chance, but Brother Yi, if you really want to help them, you should really think about their future, instead of just letting them follow the road you have chosen for them."
Zhang Yi came back to his senses after hearing this. He looked at Wang Fugui and said: "I understand what you mean, but not all roads can be taken. I also know that Xiao Ou has learned a lot of 'crafts' from you, and so has Lilin.
He told me that he has succeeded several times on the train recently, and he has not been discovered... Although it is just a 'practice', if he goes down this road, he may end up with you, so..."
"So, Brother Yi, if you really want to help us, you have to stand up and take over all this." Wang Fugui suddenly interrupted Zhang Yi and made a shocking statement.
At this point, Zhang Yi finally understood what Wang Fugui meant.
But he pretended not to know, and asked: "Should I stand up and take over all this? Ha...you don't want me to be the boss of these rats, do you?"
Wang Fugui nodded, then looked at Zhang Yi seriously and said, "Why not?"
Zhang Yi was touched by his seriousness, but...
"no."
"Why?"
"First, I don't have the ability. Second, even if I really have such ability, why would I take over all this? Just to provide you with 'illegal' asylum for Xiao Ou?"
Wang Fugui looked at Zhang Yi quietly, then shook his head after a while and said: "Brother Yi, you have misunderstood. I am not asking you to stand up to form some big organization so that we people can get away with it... In fact, it is quite the opposite.
, if there is really one person who can stand up and manage these well, but instead help the top management to do the dirty work that they want to do but can't bend down and can't save face, maybe they will help us secretly!
"
"You're right..."
"Moreover!" Wang Fugui's tone became more serious, and his eyes were firmer than ever before. This was definitely not something that a former gambler could simply reform.
Zhang Yi was shocked by this look.
He suddenly felt that Wang Fugui in front of him was so strange.
"And! Someone has to step up! If this continues, we're going to be wiped out by the plague like the sojourners... All the recent moves at the C-suite
Dongdu has already expressed its attitude! They first demolished our last living space, then forced some people to do extraordinary things, and then picked out a few from the sand that were still good, and the others had to be cleaned up
Fall! This is the inevitable trend! We...have come to the end..." Wang Fugui stood up after saying that. He came to the window and looked at the light in the middle of the street.
It was a light that penetrated the entire abandoned underground space, falling directly from the ground to more than 300 meters underground. It was the only light that could make people feel at ease in this darkness.
"Brother Yi, you rarely pay attention to the news..."
Zhang Yi's face turned red. He really rarely cared about these things... because he didn't like them and didn't think it was necessary.
But after listening to Wang Fugui's words just now, he suddenly felt that a storm had quietly formed, but he had no idea about it...
Thinking back to the day I met Han Kongwen outside the St. Gaia Assembly Hall... 'What she wanted me to do...could it be related to these?'
"Um……"
"That's no wonder... But Lilin should have told you that our place will be demolished soon, and then the inner area of Percival will expand, and this marginal area will be assigned to c
Level temporary residents...the free people's activity area has been reduced to only around the free trade port...and the sojourners...the plague has wiped them out..." Wang Fugui turned around and looked at Zhang Yi and continued: "Yi
Brother, I am not talking to you, but I am begging you...Compared to those high-sounding people, what I hope to see most is that people like you can stand up and give us a hand..."
Zhang Yi's heart trembled, but then he laughed at himself: "A person like me? You think too highly of me..."
Wang Fugui smiled and shook his head: "Brother Yi, don't belittle yourself! Compared with ability, I always think that determination is the most important thing! What's more, you are now working as a guard in the Bai family, although you look like a servant of a big family.
, but what you can come into contact with is something that we people will never have the opportunity to come into contact with! And as long as you have contact, there is a way to go!"
Zhang Yi was silent. He clenched his fists secretly, not knowing how to answer Wang Fugui.
Wang Fugui stopped talking. He turned around and looked at the light again.
I didn’t pay much attention to it before, but today I feel that this light shines brighter than ever...
…
Back home, Zhang Xuan was cleaning the room.
Seeing her brother, Zhang Xuan took off her mask and ran over and said excitedly: "Brother, you are back! I passed the A11 exam! And it was a perfect score!"
Although Zhang Yi already knew, he still touched his sister's head lovingly, and then said: "Then I have to call everyone over and celebrate!"
Zhang Xuan smiled, but suddenly stopped smiling as if she remembered something.
"But...Xiao Ou...he failed the exam...wouldn't it be bad to celebrate...?"
Zhang Yi sighed and said: "I have already met with Xiao Ou, and I understand everything. It doesn't matter. You can just do your thing with peace of mind. I will find a way to deal with the rest."
Zhang Xuan looked at her brother in surprise and said, "Brother? Aren't you angry?"
"Angry? Why should I be angry?" Zhang Yi asked.
Zhang Xuan was even more surprised, but she didn't ask any more questions. She originally thought Zhang Yi knew that Xiao Ou failed the exam.
He will definitely be very angry... After all, in order to help Xiao Ou, Zhang Yi has suffered so much and suffered so much injustice this year... The money spent on Xiao Ou is even more than that on Zhang Xuan.
But looking at Zhang Yi now, instead of being angry, he seemed to take the whole thing indifferently. Although this is a good thing, it also makes people curious.
But Zhang Xuan didn't ask. Ever since she met Zhang Yi, she knew her brother very well.
If he downplays something, it means he has really let it go, but others must not mention it again, otherwise Zhang Yi will definitely be angry.
"Oh...it's nothing, um, I haven't tidied up your room yet, I'm going to do some work first."
But Zhang Yi grabbed Zhang Xuan and said, "Don't worry, I can just survive on the beach for one night. I have something to ask you."
Zhang Xuan was a little confused and worried, so she said "oh" obediently and followed Zhang Yi to the living room.
The two sat down and Zhang Yi asked straight to the point: "This time, with the help of that noble man, I have a decent job, and you have also got your wish and entered the college to study. Logically speaking, both of us, brother and sister, should be content."
Zhang Xuan didn't know what Zhang Yi wanted to express, so she just nodded: "Yeah."
"But... you should also know and have seen that the top management has begun to clean up these parasites attached to the dome... It is estimated that in a few days, this place will be demolished. By then, although I can
You can always live in Baijia Manor, and you can also always live in school...but everyone on this street is nowhere to be found."
At this point, Zhang Xuan probably understood, but she didn't speak in a hurry.
Zhang Yi continued: "I originally thought that when I had enough income, it would be no problem to arrange a place for everyone... But after Xiao Ou's incident... I found... maybe I have always had some
It’s too wishful thinking…”
Zhang Xuan was shocked and said quickly: "Brother!? How could you say that?"
Zhang Yi waved his hands and smiled: "I'm not blaming you for this wishful thinking, but I really didn't think about it enough... I always want to be safe and sound, and I want to have peace of mind... But now I understand, I really want to realize it
My little ideal, just relying on myself to earn money to support such a big family is just playing house... Not to mention whether such a life is what you want, even if it is... why should I arrange it for you?
What about life?”
Zhang Xuan was stunned by the question. In fact...she had also thought about similar questions, but she knew that Zhang Yi didn't have any bad intentions...He wanted to completely cut off the past since he came here, so he has been working hard to maintain it.
A small world.
However, things are always unfolding...how can Zhang Yi be alone?
But……
"Brother, I understand what you mean, but we don't feel that our lives have been arranged by you. Everything you do and teach us is to let us leave here cleanly. There is nothing wrong with this! You can't do it because of
If this is the case, you should bow your head, right? You yourself said that it has always been like this...is that right?" Zhang Xuan asked Zhang Yi in return.
After hearing this, Zhang Yi looked at his sister with relief, but his true thoughts could no longer be shared with his sister.
So he lied and said: "You are right, I said this and I have never forgotten it, but now our home is going to be lost, I have to do something."
