Chapter 2 Let’s Eat Something Good! Tasteless stuff!
Seven years old, slums.
But he became a teacher for a small child.
"When I come back in the evening, remember to do your homework. Copy the wrong spelling ten times and make a sentence each time. I will check it."
Chigenmaku showed a smile that was like a devil in Nakahara Chuuya's eyes. Nakahara Chuuya held the literacy book in his hand and shivered uncontrollably.
"……I see."
Leaving the dilapidated warehouse, the young man, wearing a gray cloak, wandered in the darkness of Leibo Street like a shadow.
The diameter of Raihachi Street is about 2km. In fact, Raihachi Street is close to the port coast and is located in a relatively central area of Yokohama.
After the disaster, Leibo Street implemented a strict information blockade. The losers who were forced to leave their homes walked into this uninhabited area and built houses bit by bit. At first, there were probably just tents or wooden houses, and later on, small dwellings were built. But due to poor development, there is no water or electricity here, and life is almost primitive.
The urban area near Leibo Street is very chaotic, but this is a good thing for Qianjianmu. Chijianmu skillfully knocked out the thugs following him and made a wave of purchases for 0 yen, then turned the corner and gave all the books directly to the used bookstore on the corner.
Money and food are the last things you should bring into the slums. Even a 500 yen coin can lead to fights and bloodshed in the slums. So he was used to spending his daily income, and his main expense was buying books.
He only needed to read it once to gain energy, but even so, he only gained 120 points of energy intermittently in the past half month. This is enough to show how rotten the world's literary world is.
Literature is the origin and end of a world. When people in a world stop thinking and writing, the end of this world becomes meaningless nothingness.
All I can say is, I hope the world’s literary world will rot and stink along with this world. (violent words)
120 points is almost nothing in Zero's eyes. However, after some testing, Qian Jianmu finally determined that Zero could do more.
Zero is obviously just a low-level offline computer, just like if you ask your computer what it can do, it will tell you something vague. It won't tell you that it can also set up systems, crack data, hit people through the network cable, and even form the most basic AI with some effort, even though it is not yet connected to the Internet.
Many things are realized only afterward, and only when he asks will Zero tell him that it is okay. Qian Jianmu spent a whole day and only managed to explore a little bit of the form of his ability.
Qianjianmu is having a really hard time these days. There is no electricity and no lights on Leibo Street. He usually studies during the day, goes out in the evening and comes back at night. Zhong is much busier than him, having to play the role of both father and mother to support an organization. Qian Jianmu once went to watch the sheep and could not agree with it. Their original intentions were very good, but as fragile as bubbles.
Orphans without abilities can gather together for warmth, but if the orphans still have no abilities after gathering together for warmth, then they are doomed. What's even more terrifying is that they got a wolf cub who is like a pillar of the family but has not yet grown into a wolf king. It is like a child in a family who, when both parents go to work, will hardly have any sense of crisis about not having enough food and clothing, and will not work hard. Such families are very common in normal society, but they are in the slums.
At first, they may be grateful to the "parents" who adopted them, but when the children forget the hard days, they will realize that their protectors are actually peers who can play together and there is no sense of intimidation. They are brainwashed by the law of the jungle and don’t think they are weak. They have no ability but are arrogant. Under the protection of adults, they have a middle school student mentality and feel that they can do anything, so they start to rebel.
It’s like children will say “My father is xxxx” and “My friend is xxxx” to intimidate others. Once they succeed, they will develop an arrogant feeling that they are xxxx, enjoying the benefits without taking any responsibilities. As a result, they will point fingers at the upper-level units, try to exclude those they don't like, point the blade outward at the parents, and decide to start a revolution in their own small world.
Qian Jianmu once asked Zhong Ye:
“Do they know your birthday?”
It is also said:
“Birthdays are not important to us.”
You see, after being together for so long, they never even asked about Chuuya Nakahara’s birthday. Even Qian Jianmu knew about it, but no one remembered it, and no one did anything for him.
The future is clearly visible, and everything has not collapsed yet. The sense of awe has not dissipated, and Zhongyuan Zhongye has not noticed the signs of the collapse of the building. Qian Jianmu is unwilling to pour cold water on the young man's enthusiasm, nor is he willing to get involved in the muddy water. He simply became a tenant-lender with Nakahara Chuuya, who provided him with shelter and appropriate protection, taught him to read and write, and occasionally provided him with money and food. In this way, everything is peaceful.
It's not all peaceful. Recently, Chuuya has been coming home later. If he doesn't come back all night due to something, my face turns pale when I think of the homework I have to do the next day. I feel terrified and ashamed when I see his expression.
No matter when, teachers are the natural enemies of students.
Zhongyuan Zhongya is a naturally good boy, and he has a strength that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve. When a person is born at the top in a certain aspect, he will have more energy and wealth to think and form his own understanding. Especially since he is at the top of the combat power in Leibo Street, no matter how big the difficulties are, they can be easily solved in his eyes. Survival is not a big problem in his eyes.
Not being oppressed makes his mind very clean, especially since he has a good foundation. His thinking is positive, innocent, gentle and fearless. Qian Jianmu didn't hate such people, but he could also foresee that he would suffer in the future.
The mindset is fixed in adolescence, and then changes direction in the future life, either shining or fading. This is probably what human pleasure is.
This made Qian Jianmu think of the education he received, which had no taboos and did not matter as long as it created value, even killing and arson. They are only taught how to become managers and are not expected to develop any camaraderie.
There is absolutely no moral education in the course, which is full of negative energy. Students at the same class are either paranoid or crazy. A group of crazy people were playing a game, and while they were playing, humanity disappeared. Without humanity, there would be no sin, and everyone was happy. That was all good and good.
Nakahara Chuuya noticed his abnormality. No matter how hard an adult pretends, he can't become a child, and he didn't pretend at all. But Zhong Yuanzhong is indeed a good boy. He still takes care of him seriously, keeps his promises and is considerate and meticulous.
In return, Chijianmaku gave him additional math and English classes, which made him miserable.
I even bought him a math tutorial book today to help him improve.
Chuuya, who was a little happy because he came back early, suddenly looked pale.
The two worlds are very different, but they are consistent in mathematical physics. Chigenmaku is a genius. A lot of knowledge that is simple for him is like a dimensionality reduction attack to Nakahara Chuuya.
Nakahara Chuuya is more interested in literature. He likes to read poetry, both short poems and haiku. But in this world, Qian Jianmu could not find any excellent literary enlightenment books. Even if he wanted to recall the books from his youth, he found it difficult to apply them to this world.
Moreover, Qian Jianmu hadn't read a book for a long time, and there were basically no paper books in his world. This made it difficult for him to access books after the entire Electronic Riot network went down.
His greatest understanding of literature came from an old friend he met in his twenties, a writer who lived a poor but free life. He liked the tobacco brought by Qian Jianmu, so he would tell stories in the misty smoke. There were piles of older straw papers, and on the desk was an e-book he had copied himself. His handwriting was also beautiful. Qian Jianmu even sealed his manuscripts and buried them in a safe after his death, thinking that if humanity was revived, perhaps something would be left behind.
After his old friend died, he didn't read for more than ten years or even decades. The articles he had memorized had turned to ashes and disappeared in his endless memory. If it weren't a hard requirement, reading books would just be a hobby for him.
Literary explosions come from the clash of ideas, and most of the heyday of literature comes from wars. Suffering creates literature, and literature heals suffering. But in this world, war has no effect on literature at all, as if all those who were thinking painfully had gone to war.
Maybe the resentment was so deep that even Zero could feel it. One day, Zero suggested that the landing procedure provide something that was not very useful but somewhat useful. The energy of the landing program belongs to the power that transcends time and space, which is also the reason why he can come here, collectively referred to as the source of time and space. The remaining space-time sources are used as emergency energy for him. If he is too miserable in this world, this backup can give him an extra option, such as avoiding death.
The space-time source and world energy grow together, which is reflected in the degree of feedback from world energy. If Qianjianmu has a certain promoting effect on this world, then the origin of the world will feed back to it a certain amount of power, and this power can be used as a source of time and space. The origin of this world is "books", that is to say, if he has a certain promoting effect on literature, the origin of the world will give back to him.
It would be fine if the origin of this world was "books", but it is a bit too much if a world where the origin of the world is books could make the literary world so miserable.
But it’s useless to know it, because the proposal of this energy is too advanced.
However, the proposal of the source of time and space is the result of the burning of Zero's CPU. It means that when more time and space sources are accumulated in the future, some literary works can be smuggled from other worlds.
But he already has so much energy, why would he smuggle books?
It's artificial intelligence, but it's trying very hard, well, it's artificial intelligence that tries very hard.
There is no other way but to study hard. He was also teaching a nine-year-old student who was just in the learning period. Zhongyuan Zhongye was very smart and talented, but no matter how good he was, he could not grow a flower without soil. I can only try my best to give him something edible, and let him eat more, and then I can give him something better when conditions permit.
Under the candlelight, the ochre-haired child made a bitter face as he used a pencil to draw auxiliary lines for the triangle and square on the back of the paper. He looked very painful but had to continue. After struggling for half an hour, he was given a pile of draft paper that flew everywhere.
Qian Jianmu sat next to him, sighed softly, and judged it wrong mercilessly. Then try to cpu him.
"This is very simple. You will succeed if you work hard. First this and then that. Do you understand?"
Nakahara Chuuya silently took back the paper, staring numbly at the auxiliary lines and thinking about life.
Qian Jianmu was also numb and he was also thinking about life.
Are all children so difficult to teach? He taught himself when he was young.
