[Comprehensive British and American] Gotham Mayor Simulator

When Weiwei lost blood while reading a book, the AI ​​who asked for leave had a period of free time.

The first day of June seems to be no different from the previous days, as long as you look up, you can see the dark clouds over the city that occupy the entire sky, but today's sky has added a little different color, some people can't help but wonder ——

"Who released so many balloons?"

Gotham Central Hospital, Jane opened the door of the ward and walked out with a heavy face.

She was not staying in her own ward, but in the rooms of other patients who came out of South Hinckley like her.

After walking out of the court, she found that her injuries seemed to be getting better faster, and just one day later, she seemed to have more strength, as strong as the men who held her down before, but now she Sure to break their heads.

Jane communicated with other people later and found that everyone felt the same way, but they couldn't be discharged from the hospital for the time being, the criminals were taken into custody, and the innocent moved out of Gotham. They all held their breath.

Lian Zhen also discovered it herself. Intellectually, she knows that not all men are bad guys. Emotionally, she doesn’t want male doctors to touch her, and she doesn’t want to communicate with men... This kind of psychological problem may take a long time to be cured. Their health is improving, but it is difficult for them to return to normal life.

"buckle"

When Jane returned to her ward and had a few words with her fellow patients, they heard a knock on the door.

But this is not a normal knock on the door. It can be heard, just like the simulated sound captured in a TV series, but several people became happy, and Jane said: "Please come in."

[Good day ladies, I hope I haven't interrupted your rest, are you feeling better today? ]

If the nurse was here, she would probably be very surprised. The door was not pushed open, but the voice that appeared in the room was an elegant male voice, speaking with an accent like that of an English butler.

"It's okay," Liya, who was in the bed next to Jane, said reservedly, but she soon stopped speaking in that reserved tone, and asked, "Mr. AI, are you also here to collect employment application forms today?"

The voice that appeared in the room was not human at all, but an intelligent AI that simulated the tone of human speech. Therefore, after knowing that they were only talking to AI, the women's resistance was not so strong. Later, Mr. AI always Come, chat with everyone, talk about what they want and their future, and even play games with the children——

Sometimes Jane feels that behind the AI ​​is actually a gentle psychiatrist, but which psychiatrist can talk to several people in the ward at the same time?

Leah's problem is actually Jane's problem. After the people who came out of the mine confirmed that the criminals were punished, their desire to survive has dissipated a lot. It was enough to see the enemies punished, to see that they were worth living, to see Jen speaking on TV and taking their little voices out.

On the day of the court judgment, the condition of many people deteriorated. As a result, no one died the next day, and many people even felt that their bodies were stronger after they came out of the emergency room.

Mr. AI, who had had a lot of exchanges before, came to ask them about their employment intentions, whether they want to stay in Gotham, or want to go to other cities. With Tan’s donation, even if they no longer go out to work and want to find a place to live alone, they will not be poor and helpless.

After hearing this, some people want to leave the sad place of Gotham City. Although their family members did not come to look for them, they still haven't given up the possibility of returning home... Most of these patients were trafficked, even if they couldn't find them. Yes, you can also live in other cities with the subsidy.

And Jane hadn't figured it out yet.

In fact, at the beginning, she was a member of "Leaving Gotham", but after she left the court and walked down, and returned to the hospital, many patients who had only met once or twice came over and said to her: "You gave us strength."

That made her... very terrified.

All her courage was probably spent in the past few years of torture, spent in the tens of seconds when she walked to the court. She didn't feel that she had extra strength, and she was even timid, and she realized that, From now on, as long as she stays in Gotham, everyone who has watched the trial will know her past——

She was pushed to the front, and behind her were women who were weaker than her, and they stared at her back with bewildered eyes.

So Jane never answered, nor did she talk to Mr. AI. She knew that if she made a decision, others would follow her, because she was already standing in front of them in a daze.

The AI ​​was chatting with other people, and she noticed that many people relaxed their tense nerves because of the gentle male voice, because as long as they thought that this was not a human being, but just a piece of data, they would feel better and be more natural... Jane guessed it was what the doctors had said, desensitization?

"You came a little early today?" Jane walked to the next door, heard the voices in the room, and whispered, "What's the matter?"

[Because I got an extra vacation today, and there is indeed a special event today, the Children's Day celebration is about to begin, and the whole city is preparing for it]

Jane was in a daze for a moment, then smiled: "Does AI also have... vacations?"

Sometimes she feels that what she is facing is not an AI, but a real person.

[Maybe because today is a great day. ]

Staring out the window, Jen noticed that the gargoyle had changed its position, was lower, and that it had colorful balloons hanging from its paws, making it comically cute in contrast.

Jane smiled slightly, and subconsciously beckoned——

The gargoyle raised its head.

The woman was taken aback.

The gargoyle that raised its head stared at her and tilted its head, as if the memory of that night came back. The monster spread its wings and flew to the window. Countless balloons fluttered behind it. The last time it brought escape Hope, this time it brings a fairytale.

The gargoyle tapped on the window.

Jane took a deep breath, pushed open the window, and then, the stone sculpture untied a yellow balloon with flexible claws, and handed it over.

"Ah..." She was stunned for a while before reaching out to pick it up, with a smile slowly appearing on her face, she said, "Today is indeed a great day."

The gargoyle flew back, and before Jane could even touch it, it was still crouching on the lowest part of the wall behind the hospital, where Jane could see children on skateboards cheering across the alley, walking Old people walking slowly with their dogs, office workers in a hurry... The city is slowly waking up, and Jane is suddenly a little unhappy. Why doesn't anyone touch the gargoyle beside her?

Don't they think it's cute?

Maybe she could go, thought Jane, clutching the balloon.

She went back to the room, tied the balloon to the head of the bed, and under the surprised eyes of other roommates, she began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, looking for clothes donated by others—it was impossible to walk out of the hospital gate in hospital clothes, and the windows on the first floor were sealed , she had to leave the hospital first and go around 100 meters before she could go to the back wall of the building.

[Ma'am,] the AI ​​suddenly spoke up, and just when Jane thought he was going to stop her, the other said, [You have a mobile phone that is not turned on in the nightstand, go to the conference room on the fourth floor to get shoe covers, and on the third floor you can Get free face masks...]

Jane froze for a moment, took out her mobile phone, and realized that the AI ​​needed the mobile phone to locate her at all times and chat with her. She smiled and asked, "Is this surveillance?"

[No,] the male voice said softly and peacefully, [This is protection. ]

When Jane went out with her mobile phone and earphones, she realized that other people were secretly watching her even though they were hiding in the ward.

She took a deep breath and turned around.

"It's okay... I just want to go to the back door."

According to the AI's guidance, she first went to the fourth floor to get a pair of shoe covers, then put on a windbreaker and a mask, and on the way to the third floor, she noticed a man dressed differently from ordinary doctors and several people with him. Said: "Can't you do this? Even gargoyles can do better than you!"

The girl who was scolded by him to the point of crying walked at the end, muttering softly: "The gargoyle can be reproduced after just one look, but how can anyone do this..."

They entered the elevator in a hurry. The man's red cloak lifted up as if with spirituality and pressed the floor of the elevator. The man's eyes swept over Jane who was standing still outside the elevator. The cloak moved again, and the elevator door that was about to close opened again. Jane was taken aback, turned and ran to the stairs.

She still can't bear to be in a closed and small space with the opposite sex, even with other people around.

She ran all the way to the first floor, but fortunately it was still early, she pulled on her mask and left the ward.

The sky is still gray, and the entire Gotham Central Hospital occupies a large area. Jane looked at a small building in the distance, and the AI ​​said to her, "That's the child care department."

She watched silently for a while, walked through the corridor, hurriedly walked through the hall with her head down, and bypassed other people's cars, she could hear her heart beating like a drum, the AI's voice seemed not so clear, and she was not sure Did the AI ​​speak? In the end, she walked out of the hospital gate under the watchful eye of the guard.

"It's like being in a mine." Zhen seemed to be talking to someone, and seemed to be talking to herself. There was clearly only a door between them. When she turned around, she felt as if she had passed through some non-existent barrier. And now she especially wants to say something, "When I was there, apart from people like me who wanted to run away, there were also people who ran away in fear of seeing our tragedy. They were all right. This is what the doctor said, cowardice It's not wrong..."

There is no rule that a person must be brave and must stand up after suffering violence and suffering, just as no one requires that Jane must stand on the witness stand in court. Even if she does not go, it may only make the trial process more tortuous.

The hospital cast a new wall to separate them, victims, from normal people, but Jane realized that this was a psychological isolation.

...they are trying to protect themselves with a negative attitude.

Because being positive is bound to hurt, people's eyes are hurt, and Jane understands this.

She walked forward slowly according to the AI's instructions. She stared at the pedestrians, cars, gargoyles on the street, and the advertisement for the big movie "Gargote and Gotham" on the street, and then she ran.

like the wind...

No one is going to catch her anymore.

The body is slightly painful, but the strange power has accelerated the speed of healing. She feels that she is becoming more powerful every day. Jane Merope, she turned a corner along the high wall of the hospital and rushed to her goal I feel like I haven't been this happy for many years.

She guessed that the patients would ask the AI ​​what she was doing, and the AI ​​would tell them, and Leah would stare at the others in surprise, and they would rush to the window.

Jane finally stood in the alley, she leaned on the wall and walked in, two naughty cats ran past her calf, making her shiver uncontrollably.

There are people opposite the gargoyle, more than one.

A young, good-looking man is squatting, instead of taking the gargoyle's balloon, he is stroking its stone wings like a pervert; an older-looking man is on the phone, watching with helpless eyes To his companion, a woman, who was eating bubble gum, she looked beautiful and generous, and next to her, a man was playing cards, and another man was wearing a top hat, and he was surprisingly tall. He noticed Jane, and then He turned his head and said a few words to his companions.

"Are you done, Daniel?" McKinney said to the wingman. "I mean, it's not magic at all. You're trying to explain magic scientifically?"

"Leave him alone," said their companion, the beautiful woman Lula, "Let's go Jack, the app says the circus is open, go have some fun."

"Our magic is often regarded as magic by others..." The man squatting in front of the gargoyle muttered, "How do these wings support its body? It can't fly at all, it's just an ordinary stone sculpture."

Several of them are magicians, or you can call them "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse". "In other words, these people couldn't help but come to Gotham... It's a vacation, but also to expose the true colors of their colleagues-how did the guy who called himself C make the gargoyle fly?

"That's..." Jane took a deep breath, "That's no ordinary stone sculpture!"
