The whole world is my food

The long rainy season has no end in sight.

Skyscrapers are looming in the gray rain, and even after months of rain, the air quality is still extremely poor, and the whole world is wrapped in sticky humidity and dust haze.

A huge corporate logo hangs on the outside of the building, with various neon lights flashing, which looks full of technology.In stark contrast to the building, there are low-rise houses connected together that are made of iron sheets and waste below the building.

Dark and damp.

Most people live here.

In front of the restaurant with the word "food" written in poor-quality red paint, stood a short-haired girl who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was wearing a pair of faded leather shoes and a pair of old bloomers with holes patched. A black hoodie with ears, the hood is worn a little askew, and the ears on the hood are also drooping.

At this time, she was looking through the tall window made of steel and glass, looking at the food inside that was kept warm by the heat preservation lamp.

Chi Yu thought, this is a collapsing and fragmented world, otherwise why would his own city have so much wealth and resources, but he couldn't even afford a ten-silver honey roasted pumpkin.

Reluctantly turning his eyes away from the alluring pumpkin puree, Chi Yu stretched out his hand from his sleeve, put a silver coin on the window, and said to the busy people inside: "Please give me one." Potato."

Hearing the sound, the chef stretched out his mechanical hand to open the huge black oven, and took out a steaming potato the size of a palm from inside.

This is the cheapest food and the best selling food.

Even so, not everyone can afford such a potato—the chef who sells food looked at the cute girl and kindly said: "Eat it while it's hot, don't be snatched by those bastards on the street." .”

Chi Yu rolled his eyes: "Thank you, I won't let them take it away."

After Chi Yu finished speaking, he lowered his head, picked up the transparent umbrella placed at his feet, opened it, and left holding the warm potatoes.

The ground was full of potholes and puddles. Even though Chi Yu was already very careful, he accidentally splashed water all over his feet.

District [-] is like that, it rains all the time.The ground never dries up.

Chi Yu remembered that his grandmother told him when he was a child that the world a long time ago was different from the present.

At that time, there were four seasons in a year, and it would not rain year after year. At that time, cities still had their own names, instead of being replaced by numbers as they are now.

It was already very dark at this time, and the night was rising in the east, and the whole street looked more gloomy and chaotic.

The impersonal rows of faded fabrics and tangle of antennae in the daytime are like monsters lurking in the night.In front of the house like a tin box, there were some wandering passers-by standing staggeringly.

The prosthetic limbs on their bodies reflected a pale light in the darkness, like the fangs of giant beasts.

They looked at everyone passing by unscrupulously, talked in low voices, and their eyes were open-naked, which was disgusting.

Only those who have money can do mechanical transformation of limbs.The transformed bionic man has stronger physical strength, more agile response, and can survive in this area better.

Chi Yu has no money.

So he never did any remodeling.

Someone was whistling at him, "Little sister, you look so cute!"

Chi Yuhao held the potato in his hand and looked back at them without fear.

At this moment, there was a low cry from the street.

Under the cramped eaves not far away, a wet little girl was crying, and beside her lay a dead man with dark purple lips and coagulated blood.

This kind of drama was staged every day, and he was a little tired of watching it. Only a fool would be fooled.

Chi Yu withdrew his gaze and was about to go home, when a beautiful idiot bumped into his line of sight unexpectedly.

She is a pretty girl with a very tall figure.Her skin is very white, that kind of cold white.Wearing a retro dress that is popular nowadays, the waistline is very high, and the legs appear to be particularly long, with beautiful black hair hanging around the waist.

One can tell at a glance that she is a rich lady who is ignorant of the world.She seemed to be moved with compassion, walked up to the bastard who was pretending, and lowered her head to take out the money bag.

Chi Yu stood watching from a distance.

As expected, a few seconds later, the girl in the long skirt let out a scream—her whole right arm was torn off by the "girl".

"Hey, he looks like a rich man, but he didn't even wear a bionic arm! Didn't rich people want to be armed to the teeth because they are afraid of death!"

After confirming that it could not be reused, she angrily threw her arm on the ground and ran away with a money bag full of silver coins.

Chu Yanshen was in pain and wanted to hit someone, and raised his head with a pale face to call for help, but when he looked around, he found that the faces of the people around him were indifferent, as if they were accustomed to such a scene.

There are only a few people who pay attention to him, but their eyes are full of filth.

Until a small figure suddenly appeared, blocking the malicious sight sweeping towards him.

"On East Tenth Street, don't underestimate every living thing. Everyone here is a jerk, and children are no exception."

The person who spoke looked very young, wearing a big hoodie, the hat was buttoned on his head, his eyes were big, and he was smiling at himself with curved eyes, giving the impression of a harmless innocent girl.

But Chu Yanshen now has a psychological shadow on the little girl.

His face was ugly, and he reflexively wanted to stay away from Chi Yu.

Seeing his reaction, Chi Yu pointed at himself with a finger, bent his eyes and said, "Except for me, I'm not that bad."

As if he didn't feel his vigilance, Chi Yu squatted down with the potatoes in the transparent plastic bag, and moved closer: "Do you want me to take you to the hospital? Go early so you won't leave too obvious scars."

"No need, my bodyguard will be here soon, stay away from me!" The voice was rustling, not the usual female voice, a little neutral but nice, mixed with a little grievance and anger.

No one in the lower area can be trusted!

Chi Yu felt very sorry, "Okay, but you'd better contact your bodyguard as soon as possible and come here quickly, otherwise after I leave, you may be raped by these people."

After speaking, he stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly felt someone grab his trousers.

Chi Yu stopped and lowered his head, and saw the aggrieved girl who was grabbing her trouser leg violently.

……

Chu Yanshen held an umbrella with one hand, covering the heads of the two of them.

I don’t know how long this umbrella has been used, some of it is broken, the rain sticks to his hands along the shaft of the umbrella, his severed hand and the transparent plastic bag containing potatoes are placed on her chest, the smell of blood and the smell of burnt food The mixture smelled bad and his clothes were soaked in blood, which made him very, very uncomfortable.

With the person on his back on his back, Chi Yu seriously reasoned with him as he walked: "I didn't send you to the hospital for nothing, I also want to be paid."

After the conversation between the two, Chu Yanshen already knew that his name was Chi Yu.

19 years old this year.

It's just that due to malnutrition and hypoplasia, the appearance looks like a minor.But why are stunted people so strong?Carrying a 1.8-meter old man like himself on his back is easy and effortless, and he can even talk to him nonchalantly.

"As you saw, all my silver coins were taken away." Staring at Chi Yu's swaying hat, Chu Yanshen felt that his thoughts were a little distracted.

Chi Yu said: "It's okay, just pay me when your bodyguard arrives. You should be very rich, I don't want a high salary, just buy three servings of honey-roasted pumpkin puree."

"..."

"Three servings are too much? I have a big appetite. If you don't think it's too good, you can buy two servings. If you can't, you can buy one. I haven't eaten honey roasted pumpkin yet. I never mind my own business. Fortunately, you have money, otherwise you might die here today."

Chi Yu stopped and called out, "Miss Chu?"

No one answered, Chi Yu turned her head and glanced. She had already passed out with a pale face, her good hand was still tightly grasping the handle of the umbrella, and her forehead was covered with sweat.

Oops, he lost too much blood and went into shock.

When Chi met the situation, he quickly ran forward with Chu Yanshen on his back.

The so-called hospital is not a real hospital.

With the huge gap between the rich and the poor and the decline of the government, the progress of science and technology does not seem to improve the quality of human life. They only provide services for the rich.

Including state-of-the-art hospitals.

The civilians living in the lower city go to small private clinics, which are located in narrow and dirty alleys, and they take care of bionic transformation, organ repair, cold and sickness... and all the businesses you can think of, providing services for every sick poor person.

While the price is low, the technical level is not so stable.

Therefore, when Chu Yanshen's right hand was reattached, and seeing the scar with only a shallow line of blood, the doctor held up the camera equipment and took 360-degree photos continuously, and praised this as his most outstanding operation this year.

Being played by the doctor like this, Chu Yanshen also woke up.When I opened my eyes, I saw a narrow room full of messy antennas and mechanical items, and all kinds of cold steel prosthetics filled the space.

And I was lying on a machine tool similar to that used for cutting materials in an abandoned steel factory.

Chi Yu had just finished eating the cold potatoes, and when he saw him open his eyes, he said pleasantly, "You're awake."

Chu Yanshen felt a little bad all over: "This is the hospital you brought me to?" This was not the hospital he knew at all, so he quickly took a look at his hand, although it was not perfect, but at least it continued, Chu Yanshen Only then was he slightly relieved.

"This is the best doctor I know. His name is Luo Bai, and he is very good at treating colds and fevers." Chi Yu threw away the burnt potato skin in his hand and leaned against Chu Yanshen's bed and said.

Luo Bai proudly closed the automatic surgery box in his right hand, returned to his normal appearance, and took out a pen and paper to calculate: "The price of tissue extension surgery is six silver coins... Well, I performed supernormally, and I will count you in." Silver coins. A total of seven silver coins, cash or electronic payment, please pay the bill, miss."

Seven silver coins...

Very cheap.

But...he couldn't pay.

Chu Yanshen sat on the bed and remained silent.
