Devil's Playground

"I don't think any of us would refuse the mission?" asked Joe.

"I think this is nonsense." Lin Yu said while staring at the light screen, "However, I'm curious, if we don't complete this task, what kind of punishment will we receive?"

"There won't be any punishment, but you won't get an official identity, and you won't get the rights and benefits that people who complete the task can get." Joe said, "Turn the light screen page to the page of character information, and you will See an 'identity' label."

Yang Jin continued to operate as Qiao said, and sure enough, there was an additional identity under the name and nickname - a new immigrant.

"After completing this task, the new immigrants will become citizens or soldiers, and can enter some special places in the central area, such as citizen supermarkets, loot trading halls and so on." Joe continued, "Of course, there are also a series of special rights, such as Commodity purchase discounts, survival point loan amount, and our ultimate goal - free redemption."

"That is to say, are you going to enter the game field again?" Conch asked.

"Inevitable!" Lily nodded, and then noticed that Conch's mood was a bit wrong, "What's the matter, don't you want to enter the game field?"

"I think..." Conch paused, obviously hesitant, "I might be able to farm."

"Huh?!" Lily was stunned for a moment, and Yang Jin and Lin Yu also showed surprised expressions.

Yang Jin has always thought that Conch likes to fight very much, and he is a natural violent person, but now he hears that he wants to farm. It feels like a ghost in a horror movie suddenly shouting at the screen: We love peace, The sudden twist of the painting style is simply messy.

"If you go to farm, you won't have the chance to leave here again." Joe frowned. Although he was caught off guard by the conch's reaction, he didn't look very surprised.

"Anyway, I never thought about leaving." Conch lowered her head, avoiding Joe's stare, "I'm different from you, even if I go back... there's... nowhere to go..."

"Then what are you going to do, stay here for the rest of your life?" Qiao asked in a deep voice, "In that case, why do you still come with me to the inner city, wouldn't it be better to stay in the outer city?"

"I'll help you leave!" Conch raised her head immediately.

"Like you self-righteously helping me avenge?" Qiao's face sank.

"I..." Conch was tongue-tied and speechless.

"Let me interject." Lin Yu knocked on the table, interrupting the dispute between Joe and Conch, "Conch, you said you would help us, but the only thing we need your help is to let you enter the game with us But you said that you want to farm and don’t want to enter the game field—then I don’t understand, how do you want to help us, and what can you help us with?”

"I……"

"I'll talk to him." Joe stood up, picked up the conch from the seat, and turned to leave the restaurant.

Watching the two of them disappear outside the restaurant door, Lily asked in confusion: "What happened to him?"

"How would I know." Lin Yu shrugged, picked up the chopsticks, and continued eating.

Yang Jin wasn't full either, so he started to eat again in a similar manner.

Lily, however, lost her appetite completely, so she asked Lily to pour her a glass of champagne, and drank it absent-mindedly.

At this time, Lin Yu suddenly asked: "Lily, are there many cases where men, Shunzi, and shadows enter the game field at the same time because they died together?"

"Not many, but it's not an exception." Lily replied, "You also know that there are no serious people in District E. The good and bad here are the difference between killing people and how many people are killing. Generally speaking, many people are members of a certain criminal gang, and it is not uncommon for them to die together when encountering situations such as police siege, internal strife, gangsters and the like."

"Then, two villains died at the same time and place at the same time, but Mr. E only chose one of them to be resurrected. What could be the reason?" Lin Yu asked seriously.

"This..." Lily held the wine glass and thought for a while, then quickly said, "Maybe it's because the other person doesn't want to accept the conditions of resurrection, and doesn't want to be a toy for Mr. E?"

"Would rather die than be resurrected?" Lin Yu frowned.

"Isn't there a saying 'Give me liberty or give me death'?" Lily said.

Lin Yu was silent, but the chopsticks in his hand were unconsciously stirring in the rice bowl where there were not many rice grains left.

Yang Jin also lost his appetite all of a sudden.Lili didn't know about Lin Yu's past, so naturally she didn't think too much about Lin Yu's questions, but Yang Jin knew that Lin Yu committed suicide with another man in a way that was close to martyrdom, but that man didn't share with Lin Yu. Rain entered the game field together and was not revived by Mr. E.

—Are you still thinking about him?Even in my arms, still thinking about him?

Yang Jin put down his chopsticks, and an unknown fire burned from his dantian to his heart and lungs.Although he always thought that jealousy was a boring and meaningless emotion, only women would waste time on such things, but at this moment, he had to admit that he was jealous, so jealous that he even wanted to accompany Lin Yu die last time.

At this time, the door of the restaurant was pushed open, and Joe walked in alone.

"Where's the conch?" Lily asked immediately.

"I'll leave him to be alone," Joe replied stoically.

"Are you sure that's okay?" Lin Yu interjected unexpectedly, "Not everyone has the ability to face confusion alone, but Conch is obviously at the edge of his head now, you leave him there alone, and you can't deal with him alone." What's the difference between pushing into a dead end? Do you think he's going to be able to get out on his own?"

Joe couldn't help being taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Are you going to talk to him?"

"After chatting with me, he will probably commit suicide." Lin Yu said bluntly, "If you don't care, I'll give it a try."

"Stop talking, I'll accompany him!" Lily jumped up and rushed out of the restaurant in a few steps.

Seeing Lily leave, Lin Yu turned his head and asked, "What's the matter with Conch, why did it suddenly become war-weary?"

"He was not a born bad embryo like you." Joe reached out his hand to take out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one, and put it on his mouth, "If it wasn't for fate, he could have been a loyal, honest and good boy all his life. .”

"I'm really sorry, I believe in the destiny of good and evil, and I don't like the idea that people are inherently good." Lin Yu said with a curled lip.

But Yang Jin couldn't help stretching out his hand, begging for cigarettes from Joe, "Excuse me, can I share one?"

"It's better not to smoke, just hold one in your mouth to enjoy yourself." Qiao threw the whole pack of cigarettes to Yang Jin, and she didn't light the cigarette on her mouth as expected.

Yang Jin took out one, put it under his nose and smelled it, a familiar smell came to his nostrils, immediately refreshed him, even the previous anger disappeared.But after glancing at Lin Yu who was looking sideways at him, and Lily who was standing aside dignifiedly, Yang Jin finally did not light the cigarette in his hand, but just imitated Joe and put the filter tip of the cigarette in his mouth.

Seeing that Yang Jin didn't smoke, Lin Yu looked away, and continued to talk to Qiao: "Would you mind talking about the conch?"

"Say what?" Joe asked.

"Tell me why he became what he is now." Lin Yu said, "You must let me know his G-spot, so as not to accidentally ignite his explosive barrel in the future, or turn it off at a critical moment."

"He..." Joe sighed, but finally went on.

Conch was born in an ordinary peasant family, a family of four, Conch is the eldest son, and there is a younger brother.The family is not rich, but they can afford their children to study.It's just that Hailuo was not born to study, and he stumbled through elementary school and didn't continue to study. On the contrary, his younger brother is very smart, and his family has high hopes for him.Conch is not jealous of his younger brother's talent, but is happy to be a farmer who scrapes the soil and support his younger brother with his parents.

However, in a twist of fate, a rich couple suddenly came to the village, claiming that their grandfather was also a villager in the village. These juniors came back to fulfill their long-cherished wish for themselves.

Although the villagers felt strange, the couple did not cheat. Instead, they donated a sum of money to the village to repair the school building, and even paid for the doctors in the city to check the health of the whole village.The village head also quietly asked the elders in the village to recall carefully, and found that there were indeed a few young people who went out to make a living in the early years, and one of them happened to match the grandfather of the couple.

Soon, the results of the physical examination came out, and rumors spread from the hospital that the couple were indeed distant relatives.At this time, the couple finally revealed a little bit, saying that their child is not in good health and it is difficult to live to adulthood, but their husband and wife are already infertile, and it is impossible to have another child.But the two had a good relationship, and they didn't want to go their separate ways because of the child's problem, so they thought of adopting a distant relative's child in their hometown, to provide for themselves until the end of their lives, and to carry on the family line.

The village exploded immediately, and many parents took the initiative to send their children to the door for the couple to choose.Conch's parents also gritted their teeth and sent their clever young son there.

But after many choices, the couple chose Conch.

"The couple's child is not suffering from heart disease, leukemia, etc.?" Hearing this, Lin Yu asked sensitively.

"Acute lymphoblastic leukemia." Joe smiled mockingly, "They didn't want Conch to be their son, but the bone marrow in Conch's body. When the medical examination results came out, they had already selected Conch, and everything after that It's a show to take the conch away and save money."

"What happened later, the operation was not successful?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

"It was successful, but the leukemia is easy to relapse. After the operation, they still kept the conch and continued to serve as a mobile bone marrow bank." Qiao Moran said, "The process of extracting bone marrow is very painful, from matching, preparation to formal transplantation. , the suffering is not inferior to that of a woman giving birth once. Conch was just a child at that time, and she didn’t know much about medical matters. When she heard about bone marrow transplantation, she thought she was going to be skinned by cramps, so she plucked up the courage and wanted to escape. But He is a child, he can run wherever he can, and he managed to run out twice, but he was quickly caught back, beaten severely, and chained up by his adoptive parents."

Qiao took a deep breath and continued: "Conch doesn't see that the suffering of small animals is also related to this incident. Because I have personally experienced that kind of pain, when I see weak animals being bullied, I immediately feel the same."

"That is to say, he is acting as the savior for those weak animals? Comparing his heart, obviously, he himself has the same expectation." Lin Yu looked at Joe thoughtfully, "His savior—is it you?"
