1324 It’s Time to Be Reasonable

"What is happiness?"

There is no standard answer to this question. You think reunion is happiness, but some people think separation is happiness.

Everyone has different definitions of happiness and pain. We cannot simply think that things that make us happy will also make others happy!

A salary increase is definitely not a happy thing for the boss!

In Nagaril, for a young man named Akon, his happiness may be sitting with his family and watching TV.

This is happiness.

There are all kinds of brand-new household appliances in the room. The first thing the federal people did after arriving was to straighten out the living problems for ordinary people.

They destroyed the "old town," which was basically a shanty town, and forced everyone to live in houses.

People were a little uncomfortable with it at first, but now it's much better.

At least a seemingly closed space can give the family a lot of security.

The family was sitting next to the TV, watching the host on the TV who they seemed to have heard of, talking about the new federal law in Nagaril.

Then there are TV series, federal TV series.

The new things gave this poor family a different enjoyment process. Animals like humans seemed... to have an indescribable transcendent talent.

If a person wants to learn self-discipline and learn to control his desires, it may be difficult.

But let a person do what he likes to do and enjoy, and he will know how to make himself happier without even being taught.

These things, in fact, have always existed in human bones, have always been there, and have never been lost.

This family had never watched a federal TV series during this time period, but they quickly understood how to properly enjoy the fun of the TV series.

The light from the TV's light-emitting tube illuminated their faces, and everyone was laughing...

From the beginning when people demonstrated because Akumali Sage might be killed by a murderer ordered by the Federation, to when people started simply robbing roadside shops, the "fall" was actually just a matter of a moment.

Yes, these people killed our spiritual leader, we must take revenge!

We can't do anything to them directly, but we can take away their property and make them suffer!

In a week's time, Akon's family has gained something new.

During this time, through the "efforts" of Akon and his father, they have lived a very good life.

There are some brand-new electrical appliances in their home. For the first time, they are grateful for the wires left for them during city construction planning, so that the electrical appliances in their room can at least rotate, instead of being just a decoration.

There were also a lot of brand new clothes, clothes they had never even considered before.

But now, they have them!

At night, the father and son walked around outside and finally came back empty-handed.

All the stores that could be robbed have been robbed in the past two days, and some of the remaining stores are guarded.

Especially those stores with Blackstone Security signs and federal men with guns inside.

These people and the weapons in their hands are no joke. As long as someone tries to do something, they will pull the trigger without hesitation.

The first time the shooting happened, there was no complete shock that stopped the Nagarilese.

Akon was also at the scene at the time. He remembered clearly that when a man was throwing a stone at a very high-end store, gunfire rang out.

The guy lay on the ground all of a sudden as if some kind of witchcraft had been released.

The people around him were not frightened by this, but instead became even more angry. A group of people roared and rushed to the store.

In their view, this behavior was like a provocation to the angry people throughout Nagaril!

They are actually rejecting the revenge of the people of Nagaril!

Then……

Every time he recalls what happened that day, it is a nightmare for Akon.

Without hesitation, the Federals began shooting, no one knew how many Federals there were, and the gunfire kept going.

People fell in pieces like harvested wheat. In just a few seconds, there were at least dozens of corpses lying outside the shop door!

Blood flowed everywhere along the floor tiles, and everyone was frightened. At the same time, it also made them realize that stores with the Blackstone Safety brand were "restricted areas"!

There are not many places left to rob in the city.

In the evening, the family had a delicious dinner and gathered in front of the TV to watch TV.

This TV has become the treasure of the family. They never thought that life could be so beautiful, and they just have one more TV!

If there are federal people here, they will impart some experience to these people

"If only you had a fluffy couch, a bag of cheap popcorn full of butter and sugar, and a big jug of juice..."

"You will feel more intense happiness, so that everything you suffered in society during the day will become unimportant at this moment!"

Well, there are no federal people to teach them these things now, but if they want to figure out these things on their own, it probably won't take too long.

The TV started, it was the news.

“… After the Speaker and deputies of the Union Parliament voted unanimously to abolish the theocratic law, it was also agreed to conduct trial work on the new federal code of Nagalir.”

“Considering some of the problems currently existing in the new federal society in Nagaril, the Ministry of Justice requires all localities to intensify their crackdown on criminal activities, especially vicious criminal activities.”

"Since most of the provisions in the new code have been implemented in the past, this trial only revised some of them, so this trial will retain the right to pursue all past cases."

"The Ministry of Justice requires all citizens of the New Federation of Nagaril who have participated in the activities of beating, smashing, looting and burning in society during this period to surrender themselves to the nearest police station as soon as possible and strive to obtain partial immunity from liability..."

The family still ate, and Akon and his father talked about the news.

"Do you think someone would take the initiative to tell the police that they committed a crime?" Akon's father asked him.

Akon shook his head, "I don't know, but at least I won't do it."

He smiled and shook his head. The things said on TV did not deter him in the slightest.

Because the laws of Nagalier have always been like this, the Nagalier people have never believed that "they are in jail or punished because they have committed a crime." They have no such understanding.

They only think that "I will go to jail or be tortured only when God punishes me", so Aken doesn't think there is anything wrong with his actions.

Now that theocratic law has been abolished and even gods can't punish him, why should he surrender?

How stupid is that?

Aken's father didn't say anything. The two continued to eat and watch TV. The family laughed at the plot on TV.

When sleeping at night, Aken lay on the floor and looked at the wooden ceiling and thought.

He wants to make good money and have the opportunity to bring his family to the Federation in the future. They will definitely live a happy life there!

When he woke up the next day, it was already past nine in the morning. They stayed up late watching TV last night, and now they wake up a little late every day.

After he got up, he used the toothbrush he grabbed to clean his oral cavity, and then walked into the living room strangely.

It is said to be the living room, but it is actually the room with the door opening to the outside.

Akon's mother was standing outside the door, and his sister was squatting on the floor playing with those cheap dolls. He glanced at the table, and there was no breakfast on it.

"I'm hungry.", he said.

Akon's mother came back from outside with some worry on her face, "Your father wanted to eat burritos. He went to buy them, but he hasn't come back yet."

There was a kind of sadness in her eyes when she spoke. She hoped that Aken could go find his father because he had been gone for a long time.

However, the status of women in Nagaril is very low. Even after the federal people came and did a lot of work to liberate women's labor force, adult women, especially women with families and children, still have no positive social status. Variety.

She couldn't take the initiative to ask the important male members of the family to do something in a commanding manner. This was not allowed!

Aken seemed to have read what she wanted to express and walked towards the door, "How long has he been there?"

"One hour……"

"Maybe he was just chatting with someone. Lately he always likes to show off to others how our lives have changed."

"Relax, I'll go find him." He comforted his mother and then walked towards the door.

Aken put a bag on his back. There was a dagger in it, which he also snatched. He could use it to defend himself when necessary.

The place selling burritos was only about ten minutes away from his house, and it was sold by an old man.

He has a very clever recipe. The burrito tastes like meat and is completely soaked in beef broth, then cut into cubes and mixed with minced beef.

With a delicious variety of vegetables, this is a very popular food around here.

Aken had no chance to eat before because he was very poor and could not afford even the cheap price.

Now he eats it often.

Just after passing an intersection, he saw the intersection in front of him was crowded with people.

He started to pay attention with some curiosity. Someone on the roadside said they were catching some criminals.

Akon recalled the news they saw last night, and something gripped his heart.

He took a deep breath, leaned against the wall, and ran forward.

After forcing his way into the crowd, he saw the police.

No, we can’t say they are all police.

There were some police officers, some Federals in military uniforms, and some Federals in Blackstone security uniforms.

He saw his father, handcuffed and led by a steel rope, like the animals that people lead at the market.

Aken's mind buzzed and went blank.
