Overturned Tower

The inferior man on the side hugged his chest and showed a sarcastic smile: "How should I put it. Although you did save Xiao Liuli's reputation, many people were saved, and a chaos and panic disappeared. But the company always does not lose money. of.

"No matter how you choose, how you answer. The company has a solution that can benefit from it... This incident is expected to promote the 'seventh consensus'. That is, 'specially outstanding individuals who are particularly trusted by public opinion and the public should respond in an emergency , Under special conditions, temporarily obtain the special immunity that allows violation of the rest of the consensus', which is commonly known as the "hero's special power of action" consensus case."

The so-called "consensus".

In fact, it is equivalent to the laws of this world.

The most classic "first consensus" is that no organization or individual may use violent or non-violent means to deprive others of their lives under any circumstances.

But the reason why it is a consensus is because it is flexible, individualized, non-standard, and operable.

——For example, Russell has violated the first consensus many times, but people will always ignore it.Because at this point, it is no longer a "consensus".

If Russell is suddenly reprimanded by public opinion, then he may be found to have violated the first consensus and be imprisoned or even exiled.But it is also possible that when he was first locked up, public opinion immediately reversed and people demanded Russell's release-this is completely possible, and even happened countless times.

However, this "seventh consensus" is different.

Its significance is that if the Seventh Consensus is passed by referendum.

Then as long as the "hero" does something and is not immediately held accountable by the public, he can no longer be overturned.

Russell could also guess the significance of this consensus case.

On the bright side, this is a consensus case "to let heroes act without scruples".

——But when it is actually implemented, it allows heroes to bypass the "consensus" to act.

In a sense...

It is essentially the same as the "veil of ignorance" kind of idea of ​​finding someone to be responsible for making up the murder and carrying the crime.

It's just a loophole.

The other is supported by "law".

The inferior said in a low voice: "In fact, before you appeared, the elves were deliberately supporting [heroes]. Almost every elf in the upper ranks has a corresponding hero...or in other words, every hero has a hero for them." Elf directors endorsed by his behavior. For example, you can be regarded as a hero supported by Amirus."

In other words, the elves are trying to expand their power?

and……

"Amirus?"

Russell was a little surprised: "But I didn't even know him before that."

"I only found out later. Who would have known that he, as the director of the elves, would elect an unknown person as a hero."

The inferior sighed and went to Russell's side: "So I thought at first that you were also one of the pawns of the elves. But after getting in touch, I realized that you are different from those other heroes."

"...how different is it?"

Russell couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, and leaned over: "Speaking of which, I haven't investigated the heroes of Happy Island... After all, since you have said so, the news on the Internet must not be reliable.

"So, why don't you tell me, who are they? Thugs? Celebrities? Narcissists? Liars? Or despicable people?"

"No. Just thinking of the word 'hero' makes me want to throw up."

The inferior refused without hesitation.

He suddenly turned his head and leaned closer, staring at Russell with cold light blue pupils: "Compared to that. Let the minister apply. I will take you to see the devil in a few days-this is the business."

"The bad guy is right, this is indeed the right thing to do."

Delphinium nodded.

She glanced at the inferior again, and there seemed to be hidden warnings and reprimands in her eyes.

This is obviously because of the momentary loss of emotional control of the inferior one.

Then, a gentle and steady voice sounded from her small body: "It cannot be said that all demons are evil. But there are very few people who do not have the desire to attack and prey on humans, but you have indeed seen it, and only I have seen such a case.

"If you can't make you understand the distortion of the demons, it may make you credulous to the tricks of other demons begging for mercy."

Although Russell wanted to argue, he was born with the talent to see through other people's lies - not in this life, but in the last life.

But it seems too arrogant to say this.And others will not easily believe it.

So Russell nodded and agreed.

And Delphinium looked over with a smile: "However, Russell. Before that...you have to go to the Hive Nightclub again today."

"Eh? Why?"

Russell was a little shocked: "Another person has been kidnapped? Or is there another suspected demon?"

"No. It's the owner of the Hive Nightclub who wants to thank you. Thank you for the names."

"...to entertain."

Russell grimaced.

He asked a little cautiously: "May I ask, is that boss... male or female? What age?"

"Ah, don't worry. It's just normal entertainment."

Delphinium smiled, her voice was clear and gentle, reminiscent of fresh and translucent black tea: "Although the Honeycomb Nightclub focuses on female-oriented entertainment, its owner is a man. And his sexual orientation is normal.

"The man's code name is 'Hei Li'. He is a middle-aged man who may look a bit vulgar, but has a straightforward personality and can say whatever he thinks. This kind of boss is a relatively easy-to-contact type...Compared to that smiling tiger It is much easier to understand.

"It's not just the Hive Nightclub - one-third of the hot springs, nightclubs, KTV and other entertainment facilities on Happy Island are all under his name.

"Many demon suspects will haunt this kind of facility. If there are no accidents, sooner or later we will demolish which building or blow up which house during the mission. There is no harm in getting acquainted with this boss in advance."

... Get acquainted in advance, so that you will be less scolded when your house is blown up in the future?

"But, Delphinium...were you not familiar with the big boss before?"

Why do you have to let me, a newcomer, come?

"You know the character of the bad guy. If he goes, there might be a fight. After all, I heard that the guy has a bad character."

Delphinium clasped her fingers on her chin and tilted her head to look at Russell.

She showed the angelic smile unique to Samoyed, and made her voice clear, as if she had turned into a teenage girl: "As for me... I don't want to say that, but I think I'm older It's pretty cute.

"I don't want to be harassed by him. It's meant to be less troublesome, but that might end up making things more troublesome.

"I can't go, and neither can the inferior ones. Many relationships with big bosses are difficult for us to maintain... But now we have a newcomer like you, it's really great——"

So in the end Russell went anyway.

On the one hand, he couldn't stand Delphinium's smile, and on the other hand, Russell was really worried that the inferior would screw things up if he went.

But when Russell saw the "black skeleton", he was a little surprised.

Because he had really seen this person before...it was the man on the airboat who was going to give Russell a villa and a floating car, with a maid driver.

The skin is slightly dark, which is the mark of sunbathing.Even indoors, he always wears brown sunglasses - this is because his eyes are sensitive to light.

Because his soul relative is a bat, but the characteristics are not obvious.Almost all of the negative traits on the body.

But it is true that, as Delphinium said, he is a carefree and vulgar man.He had no scruples in his words, and even dared to directly scold the director of the head office.

Greasy and boring jokes aside, but sincere thanks to Russell for saving his life twice - because he happened to be at the Hive nightclub yesterday.Hearing that it was Russell who made the decisive move, I immediately wanted to thank him.

There was no surprise in this meeting.

On the contrary, Heiku invited Russell to take a bath in the hot spring hotel he opened after having dinner with Russell...but Russell politely refused.

Taking a bath with someone I don't know...it's okay.

It was mainly due to Hei Li's business, which made Russell always worry that when he came out of the bath, Hei Li would be very loyal and arrange some beautiful sisters for him...

...the odds are even high.

And Russell is still somewhat reserved in this regard.

After eating, he was personally sent out of the Hive Nightclub by Hei Lian, and he called the driver directly to drive Russell home in a floating car.

After Russell got into the car, he always felt that the female driver in front of him looked familiar.

Long black hair, raised horse ears...

——Isn't this the guy who played with his tail in the elevator before! ?

Although the other party took off the smiling face mask, Russell recognized her directly.

So she was the driver hired by the boss of Heikuu?

But for some reason, Russell actually saw a sense of threat from her back.

"About Little Liuli..."

Suddenly, she spoke.

Russell tensed his body subconsciously.

"……Thank you."

"what?"

Russell froze for a moment.

"Thank you, I finally chose to keep the name of 'Xiao Liuli'..."

Without turning her head, she said softly.

Russell slowly widened his eyes.

During the previous resonance, the memory obtained from the blue song robin's mind appeared in front of Russell's eyes.

black hair, horse ears...

Could it be that--

"Actually, I haven't forgotten what happened at that time. I remember everything in my mind."

She said softly: "He likes to drink iced cola and eat spicy crayfish. It's obviously not good for his throat, but he insists on eating it... he likes it but he can't pick it up.

"Later...she fell in love with beer. But she didn't dare to get drunk. If you can't get drunk, it's not as good as Coke."

"...He doesn't drink Coke, maybe he just doesn't want to remember the past."

Russell said softly.

He was already sure.

This big black-haired elder sister is the former girlfriend of Blue Robin.

Although she used to say that "knowledge changes destiny"...but she didn't seem to change her destiny "a little bit" by becoming a white-collar worker as she thought back then.

Even if she seems to be just a driver now.However, Russell, who has a third-level redshift, can feel a sense of crisis. This is definitely not an ordinary person.

Little Liuli may not know...

His girlfriend also stepped into the dark world just like him.And deeper than him.

...Maybe it's best not to know.

"Yes."

She sighed: "He's avoiding me. I'm avoiding him too."

After being silent for a while, she continued to murmur: "Looking back at the end, it is indeed different.

"The drink I like to drink, the job I have, my future dream. Everything has changed."

"So, what about the love between you?"

"Love will not change, it will only dry and fade. It is like a petal, and it is like an old photo. At least now, it is still fresh in my heart."

She said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if it's the blue song robin or the little Liuli. No matter what he becomes... I like him."

The floating car has begun to slowly decelerate and land.

She turned her head and looked at Russell: "Here we are, hero."

It was indeed a gentle face that matched her voice.

It's just that on her left cheek, there is also a scar-like etching line similar to Bad Day.

Her left eye is a cold prosthetic eye with an indecipherable barcode under the eyelid.

Looking at her, Russell was momentarily absent-minded.
