hunting light

In order to treat the wounds of Daniel's two unlucky bodyguards, the group had to find a nearby open wine shop under the leadership of Father Adway.

The wine in District 96 is obviously different from the wine in Uptown, and it would not be a serious person to mix wine in broad daylight.If it weren't for the presence of Father Adway, the group of young masters and ladies would have been attacked by the pack of wolves within 5 minutes after they walked in.

"Of course I didn't come to follow you, Leon." Daniel managed to calm down and regained his old reserved arrogance. "I've always been very interested in the downtown area, and I want to find a chance to take a look."

"This is probably also the effect of the holy light you brought, Father Mitchell." Father Adway helped Ian treat the bodyguard's wound, and couldn't help ridiculing, "After you appeared, you never looked down on the slums The young ladies and gentlemen of the noble family suddenly put us in their hearts."

Leon raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, but Ian stabilized him with a sharp look.

"You can't hope that the higher-ups will hear our voices, but shut them out when they come down, Father Adway." Ian smiled calmly, while wrapping the head of the bodyguard deftly.There is no therapeutic device here, they can only stop the bleeding and bandage the wound in the most primitive way.

"No matter what purpose the people above came down, at least they came." Ian began to treat the second bodyguard's injury, "As long as they come, they will definitely see and hear it. Even if it's only [-]% Once we got their attention, we were one step closer to success. What do you think?"

"I think the job of church announcements can also be entrusted to you, Father Mitchell." Adway twisted the injured hand of a bodyguard into a bee chrysalis, "Every priest can fool people. But most of us don't Don’t believe what you say. But you’re different.”

He turned his head to Leon and said, "There is such a theological teacher who is good at preaching and chanting scriptures in your ears, but instead of running away, you pester him all day long. I think you have PTSD, boy. Guoli The psychiatric department of the Capital Hospital is where you should go."

"As a messenger of God, you are so impatient and trusting of God's people. Being blessed by the Holy Light is a sin in your eyes. Are you really a clergyman, not a heretic?" Leon laughed and countered.

Sang Xia blew a whistle.

"Leon." Ian warned gently.

"I'm sorry, Father Adway." Leon apologized insincerely.

Advi smiled, but didn't even refute.

"Leon, are you here to find Father Mitchell?" Daniel caught the point.

"Leon accompanied me on a field trip." Sang Xia immediately said, "It's you, what are you doing here?"

"Are you the only one who needs to write a thesis?" Daniel retorted, "I also want to write a social investigation report."

Sang Xia sneered: "I remember you are a student of the vocal music department of the Royal Hundred Flowers Academy of Arts? You are a student of singing, what social survey do you want to do? Is there any difference between the crowing of chickens in District 96 and yours in District 4?"

The guests in the wine burst into laughter.

Daniel was so angry that his handsome face turned blue, and he retorted: "Then what are you here to investigate? Are you thinking about letting Lingtang come to District 96 to open a branch?"

The guests laughed even louder, and whistles flew all over the ceiling.

"Tsk tsk, ladies and gentlemen of District 4..." Father Adway crossed his legs and asked the bartender to bring him a glass of honey beer.

Sang Xia's background has always been her key point, but she has been attacked since she can remember, and she has already cultivated an immortal body of King Kong.She was not annoyed when Daniel exposed her parentage in public, but smiled sweetly instead.

"My mother has already made a name for herself, and she has quit the arena long ago. You have to change your family to submit your resume. As for your mother——"

Sang Xia pointed to a hen pecking at the trash outside the French window of the wine: "Lingtang is looking for you to come home for dinner, Daniel!"

The guests in the wine were laughing so hard that even the bartender was pounding on the table desperately.

The word "chicken" is used by others on Omega, which is a serious insult, and Omega can denounce the other party openly.And when Omega is used with each other, it is a powerful attack weapon.

"It's so rude!" Daniel was furious, "I am the honorable Duke of Winston, heir to the seventh branch of the Leicester family, Marshal of the Silver Star of the Empire..."

"...the third-generation grandson of Marshal Silver Star, the fourth-generation grandson of Princess Jialinna, Baba Baba Balaba." Sangxia completed for him, "I suggest you record your title and genealogy and put them in your bracelet. Loop it when you meet someone. Technology will simplify your life."

"You..." Daniel was trembling with anger, he was about to have a stroke, "You shameless woman!"

"Who is shameless?" Sang Xia slapped the table with an iron sand palm, pulled Leon who was watching the fun, pinched his face and pointed at Daniel.

"Show me your little chicken, this is my mother's boyfriend! You nobles have the most wealth and privileges in the country, hereditary and superior. We civilians have worked hard for generations and bowed to you. Now even a man is going to be robbed by you? Let me tell you, Leon is my man in life, and his dead man in death. Even if I burn him, I won’t leave you with ashes! This is us’ civilians Girls' dignity!"

Ms. Sang Xia, who was dressed in a diamond costume, took advantage of her "no title" and transformed herself into a gorgeous figure, becoming the spokesperson of the "civilian girl"!

Daniel was dumbfounded.

The people who were full of wine applauded loudly, and they didn't watch the live broadcast of the game, they all applauded for Sang Xia.

"..." Leon, who was about to be burned to ashes somehow, felt a little stressed.

Advi whistled and wanted to clink glasses with Ian.

Ian glanced at him expressionlessly.

"Leon!" Daniel burst into tears with anger, and complained bitterly: "I saw Sangxia kissing Jock of your school's football team! She has betrayed you a long time ago!"

"Oh..." All the guests in the room sighed, deeply attracted by the twists and turns that surpassed the plot of soap operas.

Leon looked at Sangxia.

Sang Xia said without shame: "Jock has ashes in his eyes, I'll blow him off."

"Okay." Leon immediately chose to believe her.

"Wow..." Everyone sighed again, thinking that this Alpha boy is rich and handsome, but he is still willing to wear a cuckold.The life of the rich is really incomprehensible.

"Okay." Ian blew the whistle before the topic became more vulgar, and turned the topic back on track, "Miss Hughes is really here to do an investigation. You are writing a paper on the points reform system, yes Is it, Sangxia?"

"Yes." Sang Xia agreed, and immediately returned to the subject, "It's my end-of-semester paper, discussing the conflict between the point system and the principle of legal fairness. This is also one of the hottest topics discussed in recent years."

"There is almost nothing to discuss." Leon finally found a suitable topic for him to speak, "Allocating social resources with points is based on discrimination against occupations. Without enough points, people simply cannot enter The gates to good hospitals and good schools. If the two most basic rights, education and medical care, cannot be guaranteed, how can we talk about equality?"

Daniel also joined in: "But the country has public schools and hospitals. The gap between the rich and the poor always exists in human society. The families of the strong accumulate wealth and occupy high-quality resources, while the weak can only stay at the bottom. If one People have not created any valuable social wealth, but they have to enjoy the same amount of resources as those who have contributed, isn't this unfair to those who have contributed?"

"Do you mean the points obtained by the contribution?" Sang Xia retorted, "But the standards for point assessment have been criticized all the time. The points obtained by physical labor are only a few tenths of those obtained by mental labor."

Daniel said: "We live in an era of highly intelligent mechanization. Mechanical servants can replace most of human labor. Human manual labor has indeed become a very, very cheap productivity. If you want to get high points, you should study hard and engage in some different things. Jobs that are easily replaced by mechanical servants."

"Without points, they can only go to public schools." Leon said, "I did a survey last semester when I was writing a sociology paper. The quality of public school education in the Empire has dropped by 50% compared to 15 years ago. Teachers Lost, outdated teaching equipment, outdated teaching materials—especially the last one. Do you know that no matter how reformed the textbook knowledge in public schools is, it will lag behind private schools by nearly 30 years?”

Daniel was a little speechless.

Leon said coldly: "It seems nothing, but in 30 years, people can live to be two hundred years old now. But these 30 years are exactly the time required for a person to receive all basic education. This means , All people who go to public schools will be 30 years behind private school students in terms of knowledge. They will never be able to work harder than private school students, and they will always be able to engage in auxiliary jobs with more physical strength!"

The whole wine was quiet.

"Look," Ian said softly to Father Adway, "they're here, they've seen and heard it, and they've remembered it all."

Adwei was still holding the empty beer glass, looking at the three young people who were arguing, his silent profile was as sharp as a shave.

Not only him, but everyone in the wine listened quietly to the debate.

"Not only that!" Sangxia said, "The point system alone is greatly restricting the mobility of the class and restricting the upward movement of the people at the bottom. Why do we need to add a point in addition to the salary? Why do we even have legislation? To maintain this system? We human beings have left the earth’s mother planet, drifted for thousands of years, and established so many huge empires in the new star field. It is as easy for us to build mechas and spaceships as building blocks, but we still can’t do it Let the market economy take the lead?"

"We all have a vested interest in enjoying the points system."

"Doesn't that mean we can't question it? There is no question that this system is redundant, set up specifically to solidify our society in a strange pyramid shape. All societies, I know, are pyramids. But our society is more special."

"We are a country with a feudal system, and we still have an emperor. Our democracy and equality are only relative. Of course, the point system protects the interests of the privileged class."

"It would be understandable to say that during the period of great land reclamation, social resources were scarce, and the weak preyed on the strong. But our society has developed to this day. In such a primitive ancient Earth period, there were quite civilized and democratic countries. Why did we do it instead? not?"

"Everyone, I think you have overlooked a problem: the origin of points." Daniel said, "Points are derived from teachings. The Holy Lord stipulates the high and low levels of work. Our ancestors made laws according to his will. In addition to salary , and also established a points system.”

"Aha!" Sang Xia said, "Don't try to fool me into attacking the doctrine. The Holy Lord doesn't care how we formulate civil laws, this is the world's own idea!"

"The Lord and his followers are vested interests anyway." As Ian expected, Leon immediately fired at the Holy See, "We don't need to discuss how this system came about, we just need to think about how to eliminate it. "

"From legislation." Daniel said, "The motion to abolish the point system is proposed every year, but it is shot down every year. You can't let people throw away the pie they have already got. Everyone in the world is selfish. Just like you, Sangxia, are you willing to take off your clothes and jewelry to the people in this room?"

Sangxia smiled provocatively at Daniel: "We can compare our undressing. I will take off as much as you take off."

"The Federation of Atlanta abolished the point system." Leon turned the topic back from the edge of the three customs.

"Look at what's happened to them. They're now in a domestic economic crisis and the government is almost bankrupt."

"They were defeated because of apostasy!"

"If the Holy Lord is so powerful, then his thinking is correct." Daniel said angrily, "Maybe the Holy Lord wants human society to maintain such a form. All this is God's will!"

The three fell into a cold spot.

After a while, Leon said: "There is nothing that cannot be changed. Laws, systems, and beliefs. The stars can be destroyed, and the universe can also collapse. The changes in human society are just a drop in the ocean."

"Reform?" Sang Xia whispered dazedly, "This is a complete change from top to bottom."

Leon looked at Ian who was watching him quietly, and the two eyes met gently in midair.

"I still say the same thing," the blond young man said calmly, "If you don't have enough strength to fight against the ruling class that formulates social laws, then any reform is empty talk. So, let's make ourselves stronger first."

"Well, ladies and gentlemen." Father Adway stood up. "Excellent debate! Thank you for the many thought-provoking remarks...some of which could have put us under surveillance by the Secret Service. Anyway, we can continue Did you visit?"

The young people got up, picked up their coats, and prepared to leave.

"Just a moment, please," said the bartender. "I'd like to buy these three young men a drink. I enjoyed your debate just now."

Leon and the others looked at each other, a little surprised by the sudden kindness.After all, when they entered the wine before, the hostility in the room was almost condensed into a sharp sword and stabbed at them.

"Thank you." Leon raised his glass first.

Upon seeing this, Daniel also drank it in one gulp.

"Yo, did you really drink it?" Sang Xia was shocked, "This is District 96. If you drink alcohol here, you will get pregnant!"

Daniel let go of his hand, and the wine glass fell to the table with a clatter.With a pale face, he subconsciously touched his lower abdomen.

All the drinkers were rolling with laughter.

"Sang Xia..." Yi An was helpless.

Sang Xia poured the wine into her mouth, laughed and fled out the door.

On this day, the three young guests left after having dinner at the Abbey of San Milo.

"Can I visit your dormitory?" Leon hesitated to leave after eating and drinking.

"No." Ian rebuffed straight away, "You should go back. It's even more unsafe here after dark. And in the future, don't run over without saying hello, let alone dragging Sangxia around."

"If that Advi makes things difficult for you, you have to tell me." Leon said.

"Father Adway is a decent man." Ian said seriously.

Leon shrugged and strode towards the gate.Sangxia and Daniel were boarding the shuttle that was parked by the door.

"By the way." Leon turned his head suddenly, his blue eyes glancing over, "The afternoon of the day after tomorrow, five o'clock."

"What?" Ian was confused.

"I'll pick you up, let's celebrate the new year together!" Leon put his hand on the door and jumped into the shuttle.

Ian felt belatedly: "I haven't agreed yet..."

However, the flying shuttle had lifted up, turned around, and disappeared into the dense orbits and lights in the sky in a blink of an eye.
