The man, nad Er Gou (Second Dog), is a thug from the Black Street.
Despite being a thug, Er Gou has a keen eye.
The woman in front of him, with her fair skin, doesn't look like a typical third-class citizen. Aren't all other third-class female citizens broad and sturdy, looking almost like n?
People like her usually co from families that have encountered major trouble, where parents had to sacrifice their own lives for their daughters'.
Such ladies, who have never needed to work for a living, find it impossible to secure jobs in the shantytowns and often resort to underhanded thods to survive, including selling their bodies when desperate.
Kanon didn't understand what Er Gou was getting at; she simply pointed at his head.
"Why can you breathe the air here?"
"Is that any of your business? My sentence is short enough for to breathe till I die."
"How did you manage that? Just tell , and I can fulfill any request of yours."
"You're not worthy to know."
Er Gou shook his head.
Such a woman, as stupid as a pig, yet so arrogantly spoken. He thought he could gain so advantage from her, but she didn't know how to speak properly.
Er Gou stood up to leave, but Kanon stopped him with her hand.
"What do you want?"
"I said, I can fulfill any request of yours." Kanon raised an eyebrow, unbuttoning one of her shirt buttons.
Er Gou's face visibly elongated, and he scoffed, "Sorry, I'm gay. Try that trick on soone else."
"..."
Kanon frowned, still blocking Er Gou's path, "I don't believe you. When I passed by earlier, you were clearly staring at my legs."
"Are you sick? In this kind of environnt, who's interested in that? Do you still think you're a first-class citizen? We third-class citizens are already tired of living, let alone wasting energy on won."
Er Gou pushed Kanon away and left.
Kanon bit her lip, convinced that this man was a very special character in the plot, and she could extract useful information from him.
Now, she just lacked an opportunity.
With this thought, Kanon didn't hesitate to follow him. She had to find out what this man's needs were.
...
Gu Yi finished work, leaving the mine and returning his breathing equipnt.
After settling up, Gu Yi only managed to reduce his sentence by 10 years, a ager gain.
Looking around at his fellow workers, each wore a rusty helt, allowing them to move freely on the streets.
After asking around, Gu Yi obtained a helt at the cost of adding 8 years to his sentence.
Even worse, the helt would require charging, lasting up to 24 hours per charge, with each charge adding 5 years to his sentence.
The helt provided polluted air, making one dizzy, but Gu Yi had no choice but to wear it to explore the city for extended periods.
"InhaleExhaleThis is perfu, this is perfu."
Gu Yi hypnotized himself, feeling sowhat better.
To not waste ti, Gu Yi decided to deduce right at the entrance of the space jump station.
(The deduction begins!)
(You leave the station.)
(Walking down the street, high-class citizens are rare, with about one second-class citizen seen per hundred people, and almost no first-class citizens.)
(It's peak ti for everyone finishing work.)
(Most second-class citizens co out of governnt buildings, working there as clerks.)
(You head towards the city center.)
(The closer you get, the fewer police robots and more service robots you see. The police robots keep an eye on you, as if worried you might commit a cri.)
(An hour further, you notice almost no third-class citizens, with busy second-class citizens everywhere.)
(They carry briefcases, running around, their busy deanor no different from Earth's.)
(Every second-class citizen has a service robot floating above their head. Obviously, one of the conditions to beco a second-class citizen is to own a personal service robot.)
(As you try to proceed further, police robots surround you.)
(Robot: According to rule B-003, you have no right to enter this area. Please leave imdiately. Further intrusion will result in a 10,000-year sentence penalty.)
(You turn around and leave.)
(You guess that the rules of category B can only be understood after upgrading.)
(You continue down the street, heading towards the city's edge.)
(The further to the edge you go, the fewer service robots and more police robots there are.)
(You find a strange street in the southeast corner of the city.)
(There are almost no police robots here, just a service robot floating above the city.)
(You enter the street, wandering around.)
(People notice you're a new face, giving you a glance before quickly leaving.)
(In a back alley, you find a strange man, the only third-class citizen not wearing a helt.)
(You're surprised.)
(You approach to start a conversation.)
(You: Hello.)
(The man looks up at you, touching his chin with a suspicious gesture.)
(You: Can I ask how you manage to breathe here without a helt?)
(Man: You want to know?)
(You: Yes.)
(Man: If you spend a night with , I'll tell you.)
(You: Spend a night?)
(The man starts to make unwelco advances.)
(You punch the man in the nose, surprised that you've actually been molested by a man.)
(Man: Soone's using violence here!)
(The man's shout attracts a service robot.)
(The robot takes a good look at you and calls for more police robots.)
(You terminate the deduction!)
"Damn, what kind of freaks are these?"
Gu Yi touched his backside, still in shock.
That man must be an NPC with a special role, but why is the XP system so weird?
Honestly, Gu Yi would rather jump off a building than sell himself.
After so thought, Gu Yi decides to confront the man again.
(Backtracking deduction begins!)
(You stand in front of the strange man, keeping a distance of one and a half ters.)
(You: Can you tell why you don't need to wear a helt?)
(The man stands up and walks towards you.)
(Man: You really want to know? Just spend one night with .)
(You laugh coldly and use psychological suggestion on the man.)
(The man freezes in place, struggling against your ntal force.)
(Eventually, the man fails and stands before you, not daring to make another move.)
(You glance at the service robot in the sky, which indeed doesn't co to bother you.)
(As you suspected, the man has the ability to block the service robots.)
