"Were there any special steps involved in the operation?"
"To put it simply, that's probably it..."
The Cheshire Cat's jewel-like eyes twinkled. "Isn't it beautiful? Beautiful things are usually poisonous. People and objects alike. By the way, did you know that inactivated poppy seed bread is delicious?"
"..." Chu Shangli was silent for a moment: "I'm sorry, I haven't eaten it, so I can't comment..."
"Why? Aren't you allergic to linseed oil? Can't you eat poppy seeds?"
"So... would you eat it? Or does Family sell that kind of product?"
"No, no, not at all." The Cheshire Cat sighed softly, "I didn't eat it, and I never sold it."
"Then why..."
"But it was once a favorite of my mother's. I vaguely remember her eating poppy seed bread as a snack—Is that interesting, or should I say, terrifying?"
The Cheshire Cat twitched the corner of his lip——
"She once told me it was delicious, and I felt a refreshing sensation when I smelled it—but unfortunately, I'm a very timid person. Although most people would want to pursue the taste and warmth of their mother, I believe that if something is beautiful but poisonous, there is no need or value in pursuing it—"
The Cheshire Cat covered his eyes with his hands. "My eyes are beautiful, but they weren't created by my own will. But since they've become what they are, I'm not dissatisfied. They're very bright, after all. And, of course, very convenient. However, the feeling of peering into someone else's brain, or having one peered into, is incredibly disgusting. It took me a long time to get used to it."
The Cheshire Cat paused, folded his hands on his knees, and showed a calm expression.
"If I could choose, I would definitely not choose it - but, when given a choice, more people choose the worse option -"
"The worse option—do you mean the eyes?"
"Yes, I mean the eyes." The Cheshire Cat spread out his five fingers and gently covered the non-existent wall of air.
"I wonder if you can detect any special meaning in what I said?"
Chu Shangli thought silently——
I hadn't noticed that those people were all visually impaired.
However, with that density, it's impossible for it to be all visual impairment.
So, it must be another reason?
There is a huge gap between the time when many things were first invented and their subsequent uses.
For example, a diet that was originally used to treat epilepsy patients was eventually widely used for weight loss.
Among Chu Moyin’s industries in his previous life, in addition to the “hospital”, he also monopolized most of the beauty industry in the empire.
If the technology originally used to treat binocular vision gradually spreads to ordinary people, it would be very common.
No, it's pretty normal.
Therefore, in the final scene that flashed across the streets of the empire, it was difficult to see ordinary eye colors.
Just like the increasing popularity and spread of hair dye—if special agents are added to hair dye, few people will be able to avoid being affected by the special substances in the hair dye—
"So, there are things that can be seen without surgery—"
Chu Moyin gave this speech in front of everyone -
This sentence actually contains other meanings.
The pure black pupils are like ink splashed across the night sky.
