Chapter 290 Justice Must Exist

Ye Tingbai: "What's the situation in the city now? Are there any sudden pollutants?"

Tian Rui: "No, but the whole city is restricted by a strange rule. If we do anything out of line, we may be punished."

"Every polluted world has its own rules. This is normal. At least we are living normally now, which is rare."

Ye Tingbai got up and stretched his body, then left the room. The pub, which was usually very lively, was now deserted. Except for a few permanent staff members, there was no one to be seen.

He didn't see many people when he came to the street. He looked carefully at the window next to him and found a lot of vigilant eyes. Suddenly, he heard a fierce quarrel from the residential building next to him, and then a woman's scream.

Ye Tingbai ran to the source of the sound. After running to the door, Ye Tingbai kicked the all-steel security door open with one foot. When he opened the door, he saw a man with both arms cut off lying on the floor of the living room.

"What happened?"

The woman pointed at the body on the floor in horror: "Just now, his hand suddenly broke, and then he died."

The secondary personality squatted down to check the man's body and found that he really died of natural causes. One of the two arms that fell to the side of the man was a mechanical creation. This was considered his contaminated transplanted organ. Now this part was violently cut off, and the body directly died.

Second personality: "Explain it clearly."

"He couldn't help hitting me again, and then he was punished by God. It must be like this, it must be like this."

The woman looked terrified and a little crazy.

Second personality: "This seems to be an ordinary person. His mental state should have been abnormal for a long time."

Ye Tingbai: "This is the rule that Tian Rui said. This God of Desire is really interesting. He uses this method to achieve his obsession."

This rule should not be as strict as Ye Tingbai imagined. It is not that he kills people at will. Broken hands do not hurt his life. It's just that this man is too unlucky. The mechanical transplant part happened to be in his arm.

The secondary personality came to the edge of the city again and found that it was completely covered by black fog. The range of the black fog did not reach the city gate, making the range of activities of the people in the harbor much smaller.

There were still many people wandering in front of the black fog, looking like they wanted to go in, but they didn't dare to go in.

At this time, an old man took the initiative to come up: "Young man, you can't go in this fog. Look over there, there are corpses. Going in will be dead!"

Ye Tingbai looked in the direction of the old man's finger. There were many skeletons with bright red meat hanging on their bodies. Judging from the condition of the bones, these should be people who have received mechanical transplants.

Secondary personality: "How did they die?"

The old man had a smug expression as if he knew everything.

"Just watch, a fool just went in without listening to advice, and he will be back soon."

The secondary personality and the old man waited on the side of the road. Sure enough, ten minutes later, a strange figure walked out of the black fog, and the man shouted happily.

"I'm out, I'm finally out!"

Looking at the man's ecstatic look, it seems like he has been trapped in the black fog for many years, but after a closer look, the man is indeed pale, with no flesh on his face, as if he has been trapped for a long time.

The old man beside him gloated a little.

"Just watch, this man will soon become a skeleton."

When the secondary personality heard this, he immediately ran towards the man. During the run, the man's body seemed to be eaten by countless insects, and his clothes and flesh were all decomposed.

Ye Tingbai: "Go over and hit this old man and see what happens."

The secondary personality nodded, turned around and slapped the old man who came over behind him. The old man pointed at Ye Tingbai in disbelief.

"You, you, you, you, I saved you, why are you hitting people?"

At this moment, with a click, the arm of the secondary personality that hit people was broken into 90 degrees.

The old man covered his face and laughed: "Look! Retribution!"

The secondary personality just frowned and forced his arm back without frowning. This level of injury is still a bit troublesome for them, because the stronger the body, the slower the recovery. His nanorobots have been divided into several parts, and now the remaining ones are even more powerless.

However, the secondary personality's increasing control allows him to constantly stimulate the body to recover, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.

Secondary personality: "I didn't realize what attack we were attacked just now?"

Just now, his hand seemed to break itself, and the muscles outside the arm didn't feel any pressure at all. Some kind of attack directly acted on the bones inside the body.

Ye Tingbai: "This is not an attack at all, but some rules that were added temporarily. You control other things to hit the old man."

The secondary personality controlled the stone around him and threw it on the head of the gloating old man. The old man's head swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. The stone that hit the man exploded like a small bomb, but the actual operator of the secondary personality did not suffer any damage.

The old man was beaten and rolled on the ground holding his head. He didn't dare to shout anymore. Judging from the old man's clothes, he was probably a homeless man. He was usually submissive in the harbor. Now that there is such a rule, he dares to be so arrogant.

So, in many cases, rules are a protection for the weak and a restriction for the strong.

Ye Tingbai: "It seems that this rule can only limit the injustice visible to the naked eye. That thing cannot understand the principle of your attack, so it cannot determine that you attacked it. This is good news."

Secondary personality: "I still have that piece of paper. I can contact Johnson to try."

"You still have this thing?"

Secondary personality: "No need to throw it away. Use it as a dagger sheath."

The paper was given to him by Si Youxu when he entered the polluted world alone. This thing can ignore any obstacles. The words written on the paper can appear on the body of the book outside. Later, this book was given to Johnson, and the two of them also used it to contact.

Now two days have passed, and the outside world should have noticed the problem of the harbor a long time ago, so Johnson is likely to be paying attention to that book.

So the secondary personality took out the yellowed paper that had been rolled into a cigarette shape and wrote a word on it: "In?"

There was no immediate reply on the paper. It is not known whether it was invalid or Johnson did not notice it.

Since he couldn't go out, the secondary personality had to return to the tavern. He found Tian Rui, and the two of them went to the basement. He wanted to see what the sea below the harbor was like.
