Chapter 140 Mr. Robot
Mr.Robot is a corporate slave wearing black-framed glasses, with a tired face, dull eyes, and a black backpack on his shoulders.
Just look at it from Qin Mengmeng's vicious perspective.
There should be a computer inside.
The place where this person asked Qin Mengmeng to meet was also very classic. There were not many decent coffee shops in the new city, and there was only one Starbucks in the city center. So he asked Qin Mengmeng to meet at the Starbucks in the city center and asked Qin Mengmeng what flavor of coffee she liked.
Qin Mengmeng hasn't seen someone with such a big city feel in several years since she graduated.
Mr.Robot sat next to the coffee table and opened the black backpack. Sure enough, a very heavy laptop was taken out from it, along with a Bluetooth mouse, a mouse wrist rest, a mechanical keyboard, and a keyboard wrist rest.
Qin Mengmeng: “…”
Mr. Robot explained: "Sorry, I have tendonitis, so I have a little more equipment."
Qin Mengmeng nodded in understanding.
Then Mr. Robot took out a small white medicine bottle from the corner, and they finally got down to business.
"This is a longevity elixir. It is not created in our world. After testing, it can guarantee that a person's life will be extended by fifty years."
Qin Mengmeng nodded: "Such a valuable thing, what do you want me to do in exchange?"
Mr.Robot said: "Just do what you are doing now."
Qin Mengmeng knew that he certainly wasn't talking about live streaming.
Live streaming itself has no meaning or value, and it will not create wealth out of thin air.
"Give the ghosts in the new city something to do." Mr. Robot said, "No matter what they do, don't let them break into modern society and disrupt our normal social life and social order."
That's all they have planned for Hades.
"According to our observations, when the main body in the world of the living dies, the people in the underworld will also disappear, and will be taken away by the messenger in charge of the world of the dead along with the main body's soul."
Qin Mengmeng nodded in understanding.
This is easy to understand.
The ghosts in the underworld are just stuck in a bug that prevents them from living or dying. When people in reality die, life and death are determined, the bug no longer exists, and naturally, the souls in the underworld no longer exist.
"But before they die naturally..." Mr. Robot pushed his glasses: "Everything we do is to control them and prevent them from causing trouble."
"You should have thought about developing the underworld. It's like a whole new world there, right?"
Qin Mengmeng said: "Of course."
The underworld is like a completely new world. Anyone who first comes into contact with that world will think they have seen a new continent.
But the New World was exciting because it had gold, fertile land, and even high-quality slaves and new species that promoted agricultural progress.
There is none of that in Hades.
"On the app, there is not only Xincheng, and you are not the only anchor. However, all attempts to develop economic benefits for the underworld have failed." Mr. Robot said calmly: "We have to admit that although the underworld has some residents, it is a place without any economic value."
“It’s not even suitable for tourism development.”
Qin Mengmeng: “…”
Qin Mengmeng felt like she had become a kindergarten teacher.
But thinking carefully about what she is doing now...it seems to be the case.
"At present, I am just leading the little ghosts and the dormitory heads to wander around the new city. The new city is not big and cannot be compared with those famous cities, but there are still hundreds of thousands of people. If you wander around, you will always encounter some lonely ghosts hiding in the corners."
Those lonely ghosts were scattered all over the underworld of the new city, each living their own lonely and independent life, until Qin Mengmeng led the little ghosts and others passed by and asked about their needs.
Some ghosts actually don’t like dealing with other ghosts. When they see that there are fewer of them, they will attack. But after all, they are ghosts with complete human intelligence. Compared with the recently popular Cthulhu, they are more like the types in ancient social novels that are good at dealing with the ways of the world.
When encountering that type of ghost, like the one in the cafeteria of Xincheng High School, Qin Mengmeng would just record them on the map and tell the little ghosts to avoid them.
But there are also many ghosts who are actually inseparable from human society. They are cheerful and outgoing when they are alive, and after they die, they are afraid of being lonely.
It’s like the difference between e-ghost and i-ghost.
Qin Mengmeng led the team to explore the new city slowly, and slowly the e-ghosts followed them back to Xincheng High School. At this moment, Xincheng High School was like a den of ghosts.
Qin Mengmeng's decoration team naturally has no shortage of work.
"Now, almost all the students who started at New Town High School are considered to have jobs."
When there are more residents, all kinds of things happen, such as garbage disposal, patrols to ensure everyone's safety, and so on...
"It can be considered as something to do."
The small society of Xincheng Yinfu, centered around Qin Mengmeng, generally runs well.
Mr.Robot smiled like a social animal: "If everyone has a job, society will not be in chaos."
Qin Mengmeng: “…”
"But the infrastructure and renovation will be completed one day." She asked: "What happens after that?"
Mr.Robot said: "Then tear down the new city and build it again. This is how society has always worked."
Qin Mengmeng laughed out loud at such a ridiculous yet reasonable answer.
