Twenty-three ga zones have been detected around the city, these gas are like hungry monsters that will move towards densely populated areas if not “fed” within seven days.
In order to maintain the space for human survival, an organization has established the following rules based on the characteristics of the gas—
Firstly, each resident must participate in the ga assigned by the organization;
Secondly, residents who refuse to participate in the assigned ga will no longer receive food, housing, and strategies provided by the organization;
Thirdly, residents who submit ga clear tools can exchange them for leave passes, offsetting one assigned ga.
Du Lai briefly explained the current situation in the city to them.
Yan Qingwen thoughtfully nodded and said, “It’s an intelligent thod. With 23 gas, as long as each city resident takes turns, it can ensure that the gas won’t move for a certain period of ti, indirectly guaranteeing everyone’s safety.”
Bai Youwei also nodded, “If there are more than two thousand residents in the city, participating in a ga every seven days, we could win three hundred days. With over four thousand residents, that equates to almost two years of peace. However, implenting this in reality may lead to various problems, right? For example, loss of population, how will it be accounted for? The number of people is bound to decrease over ti.”
“Any policy changes over ti, there has never been a thod that remains unchanged and effective over ten or more years,” Yan Qingwen said, “When the ti cos, there will probably be a new plan.”
Du Lai also added, “Actually population loss is not a concern, the real trouble is the ga’s anti-brushing system.”
“Anti-brushing system?” Bai Youwei was slightly surprised. She rembered hearing about it from Tu Dan and his students, but she wasn’t paying attention at the ti.
“If everyone clears a ga, the ga will activate the anti-brushing system and disappear,” Du Lai explained, “It may have moved to another place, or it might cease to exist. No one knows.”
Lun Ang couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t it a good thing if it just disappears?”
“No,” Du Lai retracted his smile, “Once an old one is gone, a new one will co. For a new ga to appear, many lives have to be sacrificed… to co up with a strategy.”
With his words, everyone fell into silence.
Through the journey, they had seen enough of good, bad, the deserving and undeserving…
Zhu Shu sighed quietly, murmuring, “Looking on the bright side, it’s already quite good here. At least everyone has a goal, and they’re still alive.”
If stranded outside, there would be nowhere to go and no direction.
Perhaps they would lead a muddled life and then unknowingly fall into a ga on so road, dying in confusion.
After a mont of silence, Du Lai did not forget to remind Yan Qingwen, “Can you now consider taking part in the claw machine ga?”
He smirked and said, “I have a feeling that our partnership will be invincible.”
“Didn’t you just say it’s not good?” Bai Youwei interjected.
Du Lai was taken aback, “What?”
“The anti-brushing system.” Bai Youwei teased him, “If everyone clears the ga, the anti-brushing system will activate. You also said that when an old one is gone, a new one will co, and many lives will have to be sacrificed then. I think… Yan Qingwen, it’s best not to agree, to avoid more sacrifices.”
Du Lai:
Yan Qingwen grinned helplessly, “We can consider cooperating again in the future.”
Du Lai’s smile looked forced and cold. He glanced at everyone and said, “It seems that I’m destined to leave empty-handed today.”
Nobody paid him any mind.
Du Lai finally looked at Bai Youwei one last ti before turning around and leaving.
After he had left, Lun Ang asked quizzically, “What happened? Was he trying to pull sothing over us?”
“He probably genuinely wants to find a partner,” Bai Youwei watched his retreating figure, “But as for that claw machine… it’s likely a 2V2 mode. I wonder which two unfortunate souls will end up being his opponents…”
