She didn't stop, but moved forward along this road that was covered by tall buildings and in shadows.

Luo Qi followed behind her without speaking.

Then I heard the girl in front of me suddenly speak.

The sound is like a wind chime passing through a calm lake, soaking out of the shadows, and finally falling to the ground.

There was only the sound of the wind humming through the buildings, and the vehicles on the overpass in the distance passed by, but they left soon.

There is a rare tranquility in the Night City on the outskirts of the city.

"From my childhood, my dad always told me that the world is mainly composed of people who are very different from my family."

Arasaka Kane's voice was very calm, "But their sense of existence is very low, and they are almost invisible, like marginal people who have been folded in this city."

"While I'm pissed off at Blade's new bikes, they're cheering on the shoddy TVs I dismiss as industrial crap."

She turned her head, found Luo Qi's gaze, and became a little less confused.

"It only costs 100 Euros, and it uses third-rate technology that has been replaced for nearly 20 years. The frame is ugly, and it looks like an antique from decades ago."

She tried her best to use her hands to draw what she saw in the photo, but she couldn't tell in the end and shook her head.

They sat in the garbage dump, using wires and signals pulled from nowhere, looking at the picture with terrible color aberration.

On the other side of the screen is the colorful heaven and earth of Night City.

Charming cars and beauties, flowers on the red carpet.Crystal-like palaces, incomprehensible paintings.The floating vehicle that seems to be in two technological ages with them, and the well-trained, majestic and inviolable security team.

And these, here in Arasaka Hanjiang, are just the aesthetics of the nouveau riche.

"I didn't understand at that time, but my father told me to see with my own eyes and feel with my own heart, because others will lie to you, and even myself will lie to myself."

Silently, she walked to the shoulder-to-shoulder position with Luo Qi. She turned her head sideways, looking at the slowly receding factory scenery, and his side face under the sky, her eyes wandering slightly.

"So you came out to the streets and witnessed it for yourself."

Roach said.

The more you learn, the more ignorant you become.

The more you think, the more confused you become.

Everyone has a different life, and people's sorrows and joys are not the same.

Especially in such a world where a good living person can live to be crazy.

She is not a chess player at the table, nor is she a loser who has lost all useless people.

Night City is enough to shut down the minds of the deepest philosophers, and Arasaka Samue is just a canary in a cage.

"Everyone born in the Arasaka family has to go through all of this."

Luo Qi suddenly realized that, just like those born with a golden spoon in their mouths, they couldn't understand the ordinary world.

I also can't imagine the deep palace compound they are in.

"Arasaka Yoshinobu is a falcon bound in the shadows, a desperate beast."

"Arasaka Hanako is a pheasant raised by Saburo all her life."

"Michiko Arasaka is a carrier pigeon that flies away."

"Then what are you... the young lady of the Arasaka family?"

Looking at him, Luo Qi realized for the first time what kind of impact Saburo Arasaka's reign of fear had brought on the world.

Even the Arasaka family will suffer this cursed fate.

It's really a long-lived old undead monster...

At least until Arasaka Yoshinobu strangled him.

"I have no idea……"

Arasaka Kane, who was originally full of vigor, was a little sluggish, and suddenly became depressed.

Growing up in the Arasaka family gave her a kind of fear and awe that existed all the time——

This point has not been effectively improved until Saburo Arasaka died.

Because she suddenly discovered that even without the Emperor Arasaka who established the dark empire in the name of fear, nothing has changed much.

The root of that crime has changed from Arasaka Saburo to the entire Arasaka.

Therefore, in Arasaka Kane's heart, a vision of urgently wanting to change this situation is deeply rooted.

It's just that she doesn't know how to do it.

The assassination of Suga Yukatsu was like an attempt, not a success, but it was not a reckless act of losing everything.

This is why Luo Qi encouraged her to start learning the essence of how the company works.

Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we be victorious in all battles.

But the things to be carried are too heavy for a girl who should spend the rest of her life in luxury and luxury.

Luo Qi didn't even dare to say that he could hold on.

Because every penny and every resource she enjoys and has enjoyed may contain the blood of countless people.

Perhaps it would be easier to just sink down and forget about goodness than it is now.

Arasaka Samue, stuck in the middle, is swimming in a sea of ​​pain, unable to tell anyone about it.

Except her father.

And now, there is another guy named Luo Qi who she confides to.

"No one should be born with some kind of heavy duty."

Luo Qi said, "Fortunately, at least you have a choice. As long as you follow your heart and make a little change, it is better than nothing."

"really?"

Arasaka Kane's gloomy eyes became a little brighter, "Is it really meaningful for me to do this?"

"The so-called right and wrong and right and wrong have never been stipulated by the natural laws of this world."

Luo Qi looked into her eyes and couldn't help but patted her on the head, "But if what you do can make yourself feel good and make many people feel good, even if it's just in ordinary life , I saw a little bit of flash, and I thought, maybe this is a really good one."

There is no need to be a great hero to save the world, no need to feel ashamed of one's own origin, and no need to search for the truth that can truly redeem mankind.

This was the first time someone told her that she was just an ordinary girl and there was no need to bear all this alone.

"Throughout the ages, countless people have come to this world, but there is still no answer."

Luo Qi said with a smile, "Relax, neither you nor I, nor any one person, can completely change everything."

"Then what should I do?"

Arasaka Kane didn't understand.

She thought about it and didn't know where to go.

She had met countless people, heard countless ideas, but never found that answer.

"We admit the absurd, but we don't make peace with the absurd, nor do we want to create an absurd society, because a society without absurdity is itself absurd."

Luo Qi looked at the Night City spreading from the bottom of his feet to the distance, and there seemed to be a whole world spinning in his eyes.

"Human power is limited, and we may never be able to reach the beauty of Utopia, but we still believe that this world should not be so absurd."

"If the times are sick, then everyone in this era is sick."

"For what cannot be changed, please give me the strength to change. For what can be changed, please give me the courage to change."

He looked at Arasaka Kane, who was already in a trance, and pulled her back to reality from the distant fantasy.

"Before that, live well and make yourself happy."

"As the saying goes, only when you are full can you lose weight. If you are sluggish, how can you save and change more?"

"Thinking too much is easy to become a fool, it is better to take one step at a time."

After tidying Arasaka Kane's crooked collar, Luo Qi took a step forward.

It's just that she was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she hurriedly caught up from behind.

"Wait, wait for me."

Arasaka Kane had long forgotten about the assistants following him.

She has read many books and met many people, but she is still at a loss about the world and her own life.

Arasaka gave her everything, but also gave her nothing.

"How did you know this?"

After thinking for a while, she was still a little curious about what Luo Qi said.

The new perspective of thinking made her feel suddenly enlightened.

"The search for truth may be as endless as science. Rather than sitting there thinking about it, I prefer to watch while walking."

Luo Qi said very naturally, "The combination of theory and practice probably means this. Simply put, it means thinking while doing. Maybe one day I suddenly understand something that I can't figure out. In fact, I am quite happy."

"Hiss, how did you say that sentence?"

"Reading is to get rid of the prejudice of the times, and traveling is to get rid of the prejudice of the region."

"Going out for a walk more can exercise the body, and going out to see more can also exercise the brain."

"You're doing pretty well, aren't you?"

Luo Qi's evaluation of Arasaka Hanjiang was still very high, which made her a little embarrassed.

"But sometimes I always feel that Arasaka is like a curse, binding me every moment."

Arasaka Hanjiang had completely regarded Luo Qi as a psychiatrist, saying one sentence after another from his heart.

"Then don't take yourself seriously. You are not the eldest lady of the Arasaka family. There is nothing you should do. This world is not much more than you, and it is not much less than you. You are heartless every day. Just eat, sleep, and eat enough."

Luo Qi was talking, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Isn't this the state when you empty your mind and fish?

"That's a pig..."

Arasaka Kane muttered in a low voice.

The words say so.

but……

She tried to think about what she would do every day if she was a carefree pet.

Eat, sleep, and bask in the sun.

It's very easy not to live for anyone.

Just like this, I spend my time doing nothing, making trouble when I have energy, and looking around when I am in the mood.

Suddenly I feel relaxed.

"But I still like motorcycles and guns."

Arasaka Kane thought for a while, and felt that his life should be more interesting.

You may not need to think too much about being an animal, but there are too few things you can do.

"Hmm~"

Luo Qi said affirmatively, "Human, there must be some small hobbies, otherwise life will be really boring."

Although her hobbies are a bit less serious.

He looked at the custom-made bright red heavy machine gun that Arasaka Hanjiang had been holding easily in his hand from just now.

Who would have thought that such a girl with excessive martial virtue would be so worried?

Warehouse next to Lawler Tunnel.

Like other areas, this parking lot and container storage area has been vacant for some time.

With weeds protruding from cracks in the ground that hadn't been maintained for a long time, there were abandoned vehicles and debris everywhere, and it looked no different from a recycling yard, except that it was more spacious.

At this time, the door of the empty warehouse was wide open, and there were some bright and beautiful cars parked around the open space. Listen carefully and the music is loud. From a distance, you can see the swaying atmosphere spotlights coming from nowhere. With a purple laser.
