Chapter 256

At this moment, the group of ten who had entered the capital fell silent.

Sister Shen silently started using sign language, afraid that if she spoke too loudly, she would be arrested.

Do you think it's too late for us to leave now?

I don't think it'll work.

Song Yu made an "X" gesture, implying that it was easy to get in but difficult to get out.

"How come you two both know sign language?"

Chen Jianjun of Jiuyao asked in a whisper.

The next second, he was reminded by the AI.

(Speaking in a breathy voice is extremely impolite; this is a second warning.)
We won't.

Song Yu and Sister Shen both shook their heads simultaneously, connecting with the explanation of the mental force field.

This is a tacit understanding between us.

Sister Shen might, but Song Yu really wouldn't.

Let's explore this place and see what's going on.

Fog Bell, the leader of the gray fog, looked around. Since they couldn't get out anyway, they might as well gather as much information as possible.

(Please don't look around, just focus on yourself.)
"..."

Gray Mist's lips twitched slightly, and his faint smile was about to crumble.

This "law tower"—just a few words put together can become legal provisions, right?
So it's a distorted version.

Song Yu winked at the gray mist. Compared to this, her emotional monster was still better; it wasn't this perverted.

Sure enough, she's a good person, a really good person.

Even when emotional monsters are born, they are all so friendly.

Song Yu thought with a sigh.

After several warnings, the ten people walked silently down the street, obediently maintaining their smiles and not daring to look left or right or make any strange movements—an abnormal level of honesty.

This was the first time the group had felt so frustrated, unable to do anything. They hadn't felt this bad even when they first entered the dungeon.

Even the non-intelligent machines in the Mech instance weren't as miserable as them.

Like a quail in jail.

【Why don't you, Sister Kidney, sacrifice yourself and let them drag you in to see what's going on?】

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Song Yu finally couldn't take it anymore and made a suggestion.

There was no one on the main street except for the judges in black robes walking back and forth.

Those weren't judges, they were death itself.

Song Yu couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Fortunately, they were quite capable; otherwise, their inner thoughts might have been monitored and they might have been arrested.

[Wow, Song Yu, my life matters too!]

Sister Shen was furious and yelled in the mental field, "That damn woman is going too far!"

However, everyone except Sister Shen agreed with Song Yu's suggestion.

Kidney disease is the biggest destabilizing factor.

With her madness and ruthlessness, she might be surprisingly effective against the Law Tower.
That's what everyone thinks.

Song Yu was joking, but there was a hint of sincerity in her words. Whether Sister Shen was willing or not was up to her; she was just saying it.

The main problem is that I simply can't stand this extremely oppressive atmosphere anymore.

The group of people wandered aimlessly but with a clear purpose.

They want to find residents in the capital, including ordinary residents and players.

No one knows the current situation in the capital better than them, and the weaknesses and loopholes in the legal system.

Never underestimate human wisdom.

Since the Law Tower has stopped expanding its territory, it means that there are still many humans in the capital that it has not yet subdued.

Finding these humans would at least allow them to escape their current predicament.

It's so frustrating!

"We've been in the capital for over 24 hours, and we haven't found anything while just walking around," Liu Yi of the Qingfu Group complained.

Moreover, you can't walk fast, because walking fast will violate the law.

However, they soon arrived at a residential area and found a house without curtains and with shadowy figures inside.

The ten people were so excited that they couldn't wait to rush up and hug that person!
Unfortunately, reality doesn't allow it.

Song Yu and her group of ten walked quietly along the road. Only after entering the residential area did they realize that there were still people living "normal" lives here.

A perfect smile, sparkling eyes, a voice that never exceeds 40 decibels yet is clearly audible, and the distance she walks is measured with a ruler with every step.

Upon seeing Song Yu and the others, he smiled and nodded in greeting.

"Good morning."

Every resident spoke in the exact same tone and manner, their voices were extremely similar.

Song Yu and the others knew perfectly well that these were probably the residents who had been transformed by the Law Tower.

That's really fast.

They imitated these people and greeted them.

You can't not greet them, or you'll get arrested.

After enduring this ordeal, the group finally arrived at the door from the window where they had just discovered the person.

Building 7, 1306.

Several people stood in front of the door, and the AI ​​issued a series of commands.

(When visiting someone's home, please knock on the door, state your identity and purpose, and only enter after obtaining the host's permission.)
(It is extremely impolite to visit someone's home without bringing a gift.)
(It's impolite to show up for a meal at mealtime without prior invitation.)
These are things that any normal person would do, so it's alright.

But besides these, there are many other minor and numerous rules.

You have to wear shoe covers, there are rules about what gifts you can bring, and you need permission from your neighbors to stay at your accommodation...

Only after they had done everything were they finally able to knock on the door.

Song Yu knocked a few times, neither too hard nor too soft, and a calm, unhurried voice came from inside.

Who is outside the door?

"Your old friends Song Yu, Xiong Yuanfeng,..."

Song Yu answered in a very formal and methodical manner.

Who knows who's inside? And even the people inside might not know who they are.

However, the law stipulates that visiting strangers' homes is not allowed, so Song Yu had to make up an identity.

Friendships can be formed even after only one meeting, right?

They don't seem like relatives.

"My friends Song Yu, Xiong Yuanfeng, ... welcome to our arrival."

The gate was opened, and the resident inside revealed a standard smile, speaking in a very strange manner.

However, you can tell from her eyes that she is still a normal, living person.

Her eyes look so tired.

"Please come in quickly."

She invited.

Ten people entered the room one after another, filling it to the brim.

Everything was in perfect order, proceeding entirely according to the regulations of the legal tower.

After closing the door, the resident's expression remained exactly the same as before, but when she turned her back to the window, she asked very urgently.

"Are you here to rescue us?"

"Player?"

"Don't answer me yet. In a confined space, as long as the judges don't read our lips, we don't leave their surveillance for too long, and we don't speak too loudly, we can still communicate normally within certain limits."

After saying that, she quickly turned around, exposing herself to the surveillance of the judge in black robes.

"..."

Life is so hard.

Song Yu shed a tear for the residents of the capital.
