Chapter 006: Riots and Bandits

Dugu Mingqi said anxiously: "Are you really not going to agree to first establish a foothold from the base? Won't it be different later? Can't you be a bit flexible? We are still going to proceed, and the three of them won't know about this matter!"

The situation in other towns is also similar

If everyone learns to do this, why bother stockpiling food? What will we do during the months when scavenging is strictly prohibited in urban areas?

Chen You and the others have been relying entirely on their savings to get by during this period. The situation is quite tense, and they dare not engage in any illegal activities to make a living, as being caught would not be worth it

However, they did not anticipate that misfortune would befall their city

At the end of this year

In this district, there is a girl whose parents passed away early, and she grew up relying on her grandmother. The girl is exceptionally beautiful, and a boy named Dugu has always been fond of being close to her

On that day, the girl casually mentioned to him that it was her birthday, expressing her hope that in the future, on her birthdays, she could enjoy a hearty meal without having to plan her food intake so carefully throughout the day.

Chen You's base, without the aid of machinery, can only strive to draw on this system to maintain fairness. This proposition is strongly supported and favored by several children who are together.

Lin Hongyan informed Chen You that in the Red Nation, it is also inevitable for small member states to experience violations in terms of public security, politics, and civil matters

Fortunately, due to the savings from past planning, it is not too worrisome

It is also for this reason that Chen You and Dugu Ming have had a falling out today

In this discussion, the details of assistance methods for three households in particularly difficult circumstances have been incorporated into the regulations of the land provisions, ultimately refining the arrangements for daily routines and establishing strict guidelines for dietary allocations

The two waited for the days to pass, hoping for a swift return to calm and tranquility

What is there to pity? These people are so impoverished that they resort to stealing food, but have you not heard? Those scoundrels even rob other poor individuals who are not involved, committing robbery, destruction, and indiscriminate murder. Even if they are driven to rebellion, they should not engage in such acts. Just because they are poor, can they harm others like this? These scoundrels do not deserve any leniency when it comes to punishment

In the cities of the Deep Blue Nation, there are generally no formidable combat machines. Suddenly encountering such a turn of events, this group first charged into the prison to liberate a number of criminals, and then proceeded to kill, destroy, and seize a large amount of food in the city.

On the side, Dugu Ming listened, feeling somewhat relieved in his heart

Every day, I practiced martial arts with Dugu Ming, teaching him some of the techniques I learned from the Lin Hongyan simulation trainer, and then we sparred.

In such a short time, the peak of Du Gu Ming's emotions had passed, and he had calmed down a bit. There was no way he would bring it up again. He was also aware of Chen You's temper; if he were to mention it once more, the two of them would surely part ways.

Upon arriving at the place, the girl, seeing the two of them bringing a pile of food, was so delighted that she stood there in a daze for quite a while before coming to her senses. She let the two of them in and then joyfully busied herself with preparing the food.

People in various regions live in constant fear, not knowing whether the next disaster will strike their own area

Chen You has been playing with coins in his hand since childhood, flicking them against the wall while walking, and they would bounce back with remarkable accuracy, never missing even when swatting mosquitoes

After the addition of three more children, the specific division he adopted was the method he heard from his mother, the way of the Red Country

I understand. Why not just agree? It's not that I intentionally didn't consider your feelings. You said, if we secretly break the rules, when others break the rules in the future, won't you feel guilty when you penalize them? If we don't impose penalties, what is the purpose of having rules? We must always act without remorse, right? Don't be angry anymore, let's go borrow from Wang Laoda first. In the future, we will work harder after the designated work hours, which won't affect the normal harvest, and they won't say anything. Your issue can also be resolved.

Chen You did not agree, stating that the regulations of the base had been established a long time ago, and just because the girl wanted it, it could not be made an exception. Among the other three children, who wouldn't want to enjoy such comfort and indulgence?

In the end, he successfully borrowed it as he wished. Chen You said he would not go to the girl anymore, as Dugu Mingfei insisted on taking him along. He mentioned that it should be considered a shared intention, and that they could not disregard the effort he had put in. Chen You replied that this would diminish the value of his intention, which was not good.

Today is her birthday. According to the regulations, we can send a little extra food as a celebration, but it must also adhere to the prescribed quantity; it cannot be limitless. Don't say anything more; this rule regarding books cannot be broken. It's not a matter of whether we can make up for it; this reasoning simply cannot be entertained. Can such thoughts ever have an end? After a satisfying meal, can one not think about it anymore? Isn't it true that we all hope to live in a time when we don't have to worry about food every day, but that is simply not possible at the moment

I didn't expect the girl to say again, "That guy's abilities can't be greater than yours; you are still the most capable person among us!"

The people in the slums where Chen Youyi resides are all wearing frowns and cursing the introduction of this regulation

Dugu Ming listened to the girl say this again, finding it difficult to refute. Seeing that he did not respond, the girl then asked Chen You.

Dugu Ming thought to himself, with so many people, it really is difficult to handle them all

In recent years, the Deep Blue Nation has introduced numerous regulations for the protection of environmental biology in response to international environmental pressures. The indiscriminate hunting of animals and logging have been prohibited, which has cut off the primary livelihood for those who cannot engage in scavenging

Damn it! Chen You, you are being so unreasonable. Do you think you can just wield a feather as if it were an official order? Do you consider yourself above everyone else? I am seriously considering breaking up now and taking what I deserve with me

Among the companions of Chen You, three boys have lost their family members due to illness.

Dugu Ming pondered for a while and decided to fulfill the girl's wish today

Dugu Ming possesses an exceptionally high level of insight, and in terms of skills, he is on par with Chen You. For Chen You to defeat him, he must employ his unique ability of tossing coins.

You do not know, I merely possess the formidable sword bestowed by my mother. In terms of ancient internal martial arts skills, there is not much difference between Dugu Ming and me

Of course, this is an exaggeration. The girl said, "Even if You Ge has a lightsaber, he cannot contend against so many people; I heard there are several thousand of them."

Allow interested citizens to discuss and express their opinions on this matter according to the law, and to conduct a vote on the established date, with the final outcome determining the resolution of the event. If found guilty, the quantification of the punishment will also be determined by the voting results.

In the event of such occurrences, all testimonies, evidence, and materials collected and organized by the mechanical flying police on the network established by the government are uploaded there

In no time, this matter became known everywhere.

In various regions, during the peak season when many travelers from outside are present, it is prohibited for scavengers to wander the streets. This is primarily due to concerns about public security and the potential negative impact on the image of the Deep Blue Nation

They moved together into his "base," which had been established not long ago, specifically into an abandoned vacant house not far from Lin Hongyan's residence

The girl was so moved that she shed tears, clearly indicating that she knew how well Du Gu Ming treated her. In the end, she also mentioned that she was aware of how capable You Ge was.

The people around Chen You have been discussing this matter during this period. The girl whom Dugu Ming likes said with concern that those people might come here to commit murder and robbery.

Under his proposal, while establishing based on the land, he and Dugu Ming consolidated their income and expenditure statistics, merging everything together. They discussed how to handle the matters with each other

However, it was unexpected that Dugu Ming, due to his relationship with this girl, fell ill in his heart

The girl unexpectedly remarked that it was still You Ge who had the greater insight and that what he said was reasonable. Meanwhile, Dugu Ming felt frustrated; he actually thought the same but did not dare to voice it.

I damn well want to break up today! What about it? Are you still not satisfied and planning to hit me?

Dugu Mingzui agreed, feeling quite pleased at the moment. Where does he truly intend to say this?

After the meal, the maid inquired about what had happened. Before Dugu Ming could speak, he hurriedly interjected that they had obtained it together, and that the specifics were not to be concerned with. In any case, it was neither stolen nor robbed

The establishment and revision of various regulations in the Red Nation are all decided through this method, with participation from the entire population in voting.

Chen You still did not agree, just said:

This statement immediately infuriated Chen You, yet he suppressed his anger, maintaining a composed expression, and stared at him, saying: "You said you want to break up? Say it again."

Chen You pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's go together to borrow some from Old Wang. We can work a bit more every evening to pay it back, which won't affect the normal harvest. How does that sound?"

Dugu Ming, filled with fervor, shouted loudly: "Those damned bastards, dare to come here and watch me? I will make sure they suffer a devastating defeat!"

Theoretically, that group of bandits should not have chosen this place. However, out of fear of being intercepted by the government forces, they specifically selected this city, www.hetushu.com, which others believed they would not dare to approach

Machines do not possess likes or dislikes, do not have human emotions or relationships, cannot be bribed, nor can they be threatened. They do not feel moved, nor do they experience fear or anxiety, and they do not become indignant. Indeed, they achieve a level of impartiality.

What is unexpected is that a large tourist commercial city adjacent to the Magical City has seen a significant influx of refugees this year due to the turmoil in the neighboring country

Her tone softened involuntarily as she said softly, "What I just said was out of anger."

It is not possible. The matters regarding the territory have been decided. If you truly wish to take action here, call the three of them for a discussion. If they all agree, you may proceed first and make up for it later. Otherwise, you can only borrow from Wang Laoda and repay together later

He and Chen You were working in the base to store food, which could completely satisfy the girl's wish at once. Thus, he pulled Chen You aside to discuss this matter privately

Then, observe the results. If there is a tie in the number of votes for opposing opinions, a second round of voting will be conducted based on the reasons provided for each of the two attitudes.

Therefore, laws and most political systems must completely eliminate injustice and the phenomenon of shielding.

Chen You cannot deny this, only stating that most of it still belongs to Dugu Mingzheng, primarily reflecting his heartfelt intention

Dugu Ming, feeling anxious, thought of a way to say: "But I have already promised her! Does that mean I can't help? Am I to lose face in front of her?"

Chen You dragged the silent Dugu Ming along, speaking as they walked towards Wang Laoda.

After stating the reasons for the position, take an open box and use small iron bars of two different widths to represent the attitudes of agreement and disapproval. Hold them in hand and place them inside the box

Therefore, the regulations of the Red Country have consistently been ahead of those of other nations in terms of completeness. Although there have been instances of misjudgment, the primary reason for this is largely due to the erroneous judgments of the majority of the populace. The operational procedures themselves do not allow for the possibility of human interference

Among them, there is a formidable figure who possesses significant influence within the urban underclass

The management and execution authority and processes of the mechanical flying police can only be interfered with by the central intelligent processor. Its management and modification powers, as well as maintenance and other tasks, are all subject to public decision-making and are reflected in real-time footage on the network, conducted in a completely transparent and open manner

He had no interest in her and the * picture * book cover; even if he did, he wouldn't flatter her so much, he just said it directly

Chen You naturally assumed the responsibility of overseeing the execution

Those people are also pitiable. Just like us

At the end of the year, that fellow suddenly called for a revolt among those around him who were struggling for a livelihood

Chen You had no choice but to agree. However, he emphasized that when the girl asked, he would only say that he was responsible for running errands for him, and that the items were obtained by him.

The incident of the riot has not yet concluded even after half a month. That group of rioters seized some government weapons and reportedly fled to other places, causing devastation in the towns they passed through. However, it is said that the Deep Blue Nation is particularly concerned about this matter and has dispatched a large number of rapid military forces to eliminate the threat.

This skill is not something that Dugu Ming can master, and it seems he cannot comprehend it either

Chen You still adhered to his own principles, and once again did not eat much. No matter what Dugu Ming and the girl said, it was of no use. They had no choice but to let him be

Dugu Ming confronted him with words, suggesting that he had not yet come to terms with the earlier matter, correct

Before Chen You could finish speaking, Dugu Mingqi, extremely annoyed, impulsively said:

Dugu Ming understood this principle, but at that moment, thinking of the girl's pitiful and delicate eyes, he particularly hoped to fulfill her dream.

Chen You thought this was indeed a matter of fact. He usually practiced sparring with Dugu Ming, and they were evenly matched, with neither able to gain the upper hand. He had the advantage of weapons, which indeed provided him with more benefits. Thus, he did not respond to this remark

Initially, it was purely for amusement; later, as my internal skills improved, the force became greater, allowing me to pierce through small trees, demonstrating considerable lethality

Chen You remained silent for a few seconds, then fixed his gaze on Du Gu Ming. Noticing that his anger had subsided somewhat, he spoke slowly, word by word: "If you truly want to part ways, then let me hear you say it one last time."

To put it nicely, just this once, it will be deducted from his harvest, and in the following days, all his expenses will be confiscated to balance the accounts.

I can only comfort myself by saying that those people are unlikely to come here. Although this place is not large, it has strong defense capabilities due to the presence of prominent figures who have spent their later years here.

Chen You has grown accustomed to everyone praising him, and he chuckled, but he did not forget to say

The introduction of this regulation has rendered the livelihood issues of these populations unsolvable, leading many to illegally engage in logging and hunting, all of whom have been apprehended by the flying police
