"Actually, with your ability, as long as you want to settle in the Floating City, the city will welcome you at any time. I think you should know that, right?" Luo Xiaoyu asked.
"I understand... but... I used to be a little afraid of the floating city, so I never made up my mind."
Yearning and fear, this is a very complex psychology.
People who grew up in Central City are more or less in this situation.
This trip to the floating city amplified the emotion of yearning and diluted fear.
Around one o'clock in the morning.
Luo Xiaoyu sent the two of them back to the floating hotel.
After a brief goodbye, she merged into the bright night sky and gradually faded away.
Lu Yang hasn't thought about it yet.
Lu Wen didn’t ask any more questions.
He remembered what Li Meng had said to him before, that everyone should have the right to choose their own life.
…
time flies.
At nine o'clock the next morning, everyone's journey continued.
Two people were missing from the team, but the robot didn't say anything.
There was no one they knew well.
This morning I went to a nursing home first.
This nursing home is not for the elderly, but for those who have no job, are too lazy to make money, do not like to communicate with the outside world, and are addicted to their own world.
"They are all permanent residents of the Floating City, so the Floating City will always support them, provide them with virtual reality equipment, and create a world they like. All costs will be borne by the Floating City."
White minimalism still applies to this nursing home.
People wore white clothes and walked on the gray floor.
The interior chandeliers, decorations, mechanical products, etc. all have a white appearance.
"Everyone has a separate virtual reality room. After wearing the device here, they can enter another illusory world and pursue their life goals in that world."
The robot led everyone outside a room.
He opened the door gently.
The person in the room is wearing a device, surrounded by pure white technology products, which, in conjunction with his actions in the virtual world, create a sense of weightlessness, a sense of impact and other effects for him.
"As you can see, this is just the most basic benefit of the floating city."
The robot slowly closed the door.
His meaning is obvious, even if you are a waste, you can live happily in this city.
certainly.
These wastes, their parents or previous generations, have obtained the permanent settlement rights for themselves and their descendants through their own efforts.
People who are addicted to their own world usually have difficulty finding a partner, so there is no need to worry about more and more waste.
"In fact, most residents are in this carefree state. The basic work of the city is completed by robots. Only cutting-edge scientific and technological talents cannot be replaced."
"Many people don't need to work, but out of social needs, they will occasionally find some jobs, such as the taxi drivers you saw last night. They won't even charge you money, they will only chat with you. , They have never been to the lower world, so they are more curious about the lower world.”
Indeed, as the robot said, after changing into simple white clothes, the residents of the floating city will be much less arrogant towards them, as everyone experienced last night.
The fantastic benefits of this city are indeed something people can’t help but envy.
As long as you are born here, you will have no worries in this life.
There are many robots in the nursing home, which are responsible for the daily clothing, food, housing and transportation of these people.
In order to let these guys who are addicted to another world feel the atmosphere of real society, many things in this place are manually operated by robots, such as washing and cooking.
Everyone can even hear the sound of hand washing.
You can also smell the aroma of food in the air.
This city really does everything it can to take care of everyone born here.
"It would be great if I could be born in this city." Someone sighed.
"It's your parents' fault for not working hard." Another laughed.
They all understand.
Even if you successfully join the Floating City now, you cannot live as comfortably as these useless people. Instead, you must find ways to realize your own value.
If the value created is enough, their descendants can enjoy this treatment.
As everyone walked, they actually saw a row of robots washing clothes.
It looks quite lively.
Even the soap is the purest white color, with an oval appearance.
Lu Yang picked up a piece of soap, smelled it, and said, "It smells like milk."
Lu Wen glanced at the name of the production company engraved on the soap and reminded: "The company that produces these soaps is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a biotechnology company. Guess where they get the oil?"
"Ah this..."
Hearing this, Lu Yang hurriedly shook off the soap on his hand as if he was electrocuted.
He quickly washed his hands.
I washed it quite vigorously, as if I was worried about contaminating it with something unclean.
Lu Yang remembered a rumor. It was said that during a certain world war, the daily necessities industry of one of the participating countries was in decline, and a certain military doctor once did something that was inhumane... But during the war, there was no humanity at all.
"It may not be true, and you don't have to worry so much." Lu Wen comforted.
"Stop talking, Brother Lu... I want to chop off my two hands now."
Lu Yang's face turned pale, and his hands turned red.
The robot leading the team noticed what was happening here.
He didn't rush, but waited patiently.
Soon, Lu Yang felt that he had been cleansed, and there was no trace of the smell of soap inside or outside, so he returned to the team.
Next is a visit to the orphanage.
Today I will spend the entire morning visiting, and in the afternoon I will separate everyone, call each person over individually, ask them what they are good at, and judge whether it is beneficial to the development of the floating city.
Floating City will definitely accept a top network talent like Lu Yang.
But this morning was anything but peaceful.
Accompanied by a loud "bang".
A second explosion occurred in the normally quiet floating city.
"It's another biotechnology company. It seems that Luo Xunfeng also found it and made it anxious."
Lu Wen looked into the distance and could see the name on the top of the company building.
Explosions cover everything up perfectly.
But after this explosion, gunshots were actually heard, which was very novel.
At least for the residents of the floating city, gunshots were really rare. Luo Xunfeng managed the city in an orderly manner, and no one needed to commit crimes because of money.
"boom!"
There was another gunshot.
This time the sound was quite close.
Everyone could see two cars passing over the city, one behind the other.
The car in the back belongs to the deacon, and the roof has been folded to the rear.
Luo Xunfeng was sitting in the driver's seat, shooting at the car in front of him. The cars in the deacon were equipped with heavy weapons, but he obviously wanted to live.
The two cars were traveling very fast and disappeared from everyone's sight after a moment.
"Don't worry, everyone. There are usually very few explosions in the floating city. It's good to have one every year. In the next two days of the trip, there won't be such a thing again."
The robot took everyone to continue the tour.
The sense of technology in this city far exceeds any city on the ground.
For people who have lived in Central City since childhood, what they saw and heard after coming here was exactly what the robot said.
They are in the future.
