MTL - Players Please Get In the Car-Chapter 1431 good and evil
Chapter 1431 Good and evil have bounds
Li Kun thinks what Duan Cheng said makes sense, "The key to the two missions is still the gems. It's a pity that communication devices cannot be used in the fairy tale world. Otherwise, we can find out the situation in Moon City in advance."
Now there are two key tasks to clear the customs, one is in Gem City and the other is in Moon City. In seven days, if you go to Moon City, you will basically give up the first task.
"Then you have to think of an honest way to enter the castle," Yan Jiayu said, "If you sneak in, you will definitely be chased and beaten."
"Is there any news about recruitment in the castle?" Xu Huo said, "The fresh vegetables and fruits sent to the castle every day should also be a channel."
"This is a way, but it's a bit time-consuming." Duan Cheng nodded. The key is that they can't directly replace the people who enter and leave the castle.
"I didn't expect to find a job in the fairy tale world one day." Li Kun said with emotion.
"Aren't you bounty hunters?" Yan Jiayu said, "Don't you have to follow other people to catch thieves during the day?"
"The premise is to have information about gems and thieves." Duan Cheng glanced at her.
"Didn't there be three thieves last night?" Yan Jiayu said as a matter of course: "If you catch the burglar who broke into the castle, can you also enter the castle in a fair manner?"
Li Kun and Duan Cheng looked at each other, and they felt that it made sense.
But this is also uncertain. After all, according to the information they inquired before, those players who brought the "thief" and gems did not enter the castle.
"At least that person broke into the castle last night, and he must have taken something out. Even if it wasn't the gemstone before, the other things were stolen." Yan Jiayu said firmly.
"Are you planning to arrest people too?" Duan Cheng asked Xu Huo.
"Split up," Xu Huo said, "We still have performances at night, and we have to prepare things during the day. If we can't catch the players from last night or enter the castle as a delivery vendor, this is also a preparation. Maybe the king will think about it." Watching a circus performance from out of town."
Although I think this possibility is very small, and even if it succeeds, it may take more than half of the customs clearance time, but Duan Cheng and Li Kun have no objection, because there is no loss for them. If Xu Huo's path really works, they You only need to pretend to be a member of the circus and follow into the castle, which saves a lot of trouble.
Deliberated and finally decided, Xu Huo went to purchase items according to the original plan, Yan Jiayu and Duan Cheng went to hunt down the players from last night, and Li Kun went to find a job.
The four separated on the street. Xu Huo walked according to the map given by the people of Gemstone City, and bought a cart in advance to store the purchased items. In order to make the evening performance look reasonable, dolls and plush toys He also added a little bit of windmills that children often play with.
Although the residents of Gem City during the day had already devoted themselves to their normal lives, the center of the topic was the thieves last night. Xu Huo listened as he walked, and stopped to talk to him from time to time while shopping.
"Why have so many thieves come in and out recently, and even broke into the castle, could it be that there are bad people in the castle?" Xu Huo asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, the residents who heard it laughed, "It is absolutely impossible for the criminal to hide in the castle. When he commits a crime, he will be branded as a criminal, and everyone will recognize him at a glance."
As for how to find out, they are vague, but this kind of vagueness is not because of intentional concealment, but because they take it for granted to "distinguish criminals at a glance", just like they can tell at a glance whether the person standing in front of them is Gem City people are still outsiders.
"Will the thief escape outside the city?" Xu Huo asked again.
The people in Gem City also had the same concerns, and said: "If they escape outside the city, then they cannot be punished."
"That's right," another person said, "People who have committed crimes can no longer enter the city, and lost things can never be found again."
"As long as the criminals can be kept out," the residents were good at comforting themselves, and soon there was a smile on their faces again, full of longing: "Jewel City has always been so peaceful."
Xu Huo pushed the cart to the next place, where he met a vendor who had been to Moon City, and asked if the escaped criminals would go to Moon City and bring danger to Moon City.
Vendors obviously also have such concerns, because Moon City and Gem City have different laws for criminals. Although the ultimate consequence of crime is death, after the new king of Moon City came to the throne last year, some "criminal acts" were abolished, such as not Carefully enter someone's house, accidentally trample someone's flower, or whip an animal.
Especially the whipping of animals, the vendor seemed very angry: "Animals are good friends of human beings. If they turn back on their owners, there must be a special reason. How can you beat them indiscriminately!"
Note that there are only two concepts of animals in Gemstone City, one is poultry, which is specially raised for food, and the other is livestock that are used as pets and labor, and the vendors are talking about the latter.
As for others such as snakes, insects, rats and ants, they are generally only found in the wild, and people in the dungeon world have the same view of them as the outside world.
From this point, it can be seen that Gem City has clear standards for good and evil, and no one can cross the line in the middle.
Naturally, when it comes to this, I may have to talk about children. In fairy tales, children will always do things that violate the rules because of their innocence. Even if they receive education, it takes a certain amount of time. This dungeon world is not like Platinum Eyes. In that way, robots can be used for all-round protection, so they made a compromise, that is, children who violate the rules before they grow up to a certain age will not be regarded as crimes, including homicide.
Children in the fairy tale world are certainly not bad enough to kill people. The most common things are just sneaking into other people's homes to play or stealing things from adults, or telling lies to deceive others-these generally do not have serious consequences.
Then when they reach the prescribed age, the children have also learned from the big population what can be done as a crime, and then they officially enter a new stage and become one of the guardians of the rules.
What is amazing is that the laws of Gem City are not public, and the only legal document is in the King's Castle.
That is to say, Gem City will not take the initiative to tell outsiders what behavior is a crime, and there is no way for outsiders to obtain what not to do, but once a crime is committed, everyone knows that a person has committed a crime, and they will write it when they are executed. come out.
"A person with a sound mind is very clear about what behavior is allowed and what behavior is an offense to others. It doesn't need to be written in black and white at all." The shop owner said to Xu Huo with a smile.
