Crossover in the Anime World

Johnny Silverhand's singing is touching, and everyone can hear the anguish and sadness in the singing.

Duran thought to himself that Johnny was very hippie-like. Hippies were called the beat generation, but although hippies smoked, drank, and permed their hair, the U.S. empire was strong at that time and they could find jobs at any time. Therefore, the decadence of young people was actually due to the confusion of too many choices.

When you are young, you smoke, drink, and perm your hair. When you are almost old, you find a job and live an honest life. This is the common situation of hippies.

But although Johnny Silverhand inherited the hippie style, his decadence was not because of too many choices, but because he had no choices. He couldn't be decadent.

In the era of hippies, many young people were decadent, but there were also many young people who were pursuing the dream of American imperialism. Decadence was just a choice. Although they are called the Beat Generation, in fact many people just have enough to eat and can do something to show off themselves.

It wasn't that Johnny Silverhand was full and holding on, but it was that he really had no choice. In Night City, young people can do nothing but smoke, drink and perm their hair to numb themselves. They can only survive by fighting and killing on the streets.

There is no hope for such a day.

So he vented these dissatisfactions through singing, and his fans also gathered because of his singing.

Dulan looked at these people and knew at what age these fans were shunted.

"When the majority of college students are discussing how to find a job. Children in Night City are divided into public schools and private schools at a certain age, and the separation is completed. Public schools are happy to educate, and private schools are just as hard-working. Some parents do not believe in evil and are very To send their children to private schools, parents work hard and even commit crimes to earn money for their children's tuition. But once they can't afford the tuition, they still have to drop out of school and enter the street world to work hard. "Dulan is talking about the protagonist of "Edge Walker". guard.

David's single mother worked hard, even with dirty hands, to pay for David's high private school tuition. He also tried his best to encourage David to become a master and a white-collar worker.

As a result, David was discriminated against by his classmates at school, and he did not understand his goal of pursuing others. It wasn't until his mother died and he met a group of young people similar to himself that he truly understood the importance of making progress. He wants to take his girlfriend to the moon, make money, and work hard.

He has a girlfriend and forgets his mother. When my mother asks him to make progress, he is totally unwilling. In order to realize his girlfriend's wish, he is willing to risk his life.

David’s experience also proves that diversion begins with children. Children who can afford to go to private schools are superior to others, and students who cannot afford to go to private schools just need to be happy.

These happy children can only make a living on the streets, facing various crimes, or go to the battlefield like Johnny, not knowing who they are fighting for, and in the end they can only be knocked down by fate.

But these have nothing to do with Section 9. Their mission is to investigate whether Johnny Silverhand is planning to carry out a terrorist attack on Arasaka Company.

"I found it. Although Jack who held the event had a false identity, the leader of the fan club is not a fake identity. He is here." Togusa investigated various intelligence and made a big discovery, that is, the core members of the fan club are On site.

Lock quickly.

It was a green-haired guy with long hair and his favorite idol tattooed on his arm. At this moment, he was standing in the crowd, swaying wildly. Although his body was still here, his soul was resonating with the idol.

"This man may know some secrets." Togusa said.

Dulan said: "I just talked with him. He is very exclusive. If we dress like this, he will definitely not say anything. Does he have a girlfriend or family?"

"He's married and has a kid. What do you want to do?"

"We can take hostages and threaten the other party to tell the truth," Duran said.

"Stop, we are law enforcement officers and we cannot cross the line. What you are doing is illegal."

Duran said: "What you said is valid in the island country, and we must abide by the law in the island country. But in the City of Night, Saburo Arasaka is the law, and we can use any means to protect Arasaka Company. As long as we protect Arasaka Company, even if we kill and set fire It’s legal. If you don’t believe it, you can look up the Adam Hammer.”

Togusa didn't know why Duran mentioned Adam's Hammer, but he checked it anyway. It would have been better if he didn't check. But he was shocked when he checked. Adam's Hammer was a felon with many achievements, and he was responsible for three lives alone. More than ten items. But now he is still the capable person under Saburo Arasaka.

If he were in the island country, it would not be enough for Adam Hammer to go to jail ten times, but in Night City he is free and can even continue to kill innocent people indiscriminately, and no one will hold him accountable.

"As you can see, Adam Hammer is protecting the company, so all his actions are legal. Although we kidnap hostages and torture them to extract confessions, we are still law enforcers. As long as it is for the benefit of the company, everything is reasonable and legal. Yes, no one will hold us accountable, this is Night City," Duran said happily.

“But what about the innocent people?”

"They can spend money to buy trauma team rescue, they can buy police protection, they can buy bulletproof cars, and they can have their bodies modified... Only rich people are qualified to enjoy safety, and poor people without money are in Night City. It’s just consumables. These are the rules of the game.” Duran quickly adapted to the world of cyberpunk.

But Togusa didn't like this kind of thing, because his salary couldn't afford so many things, and he could only expect parliamentary policies to cover this part.

He still believes that the parliament is in charge, and hopes that the parliament can assume some of the obligations. Night City is a real company in charge, but it doesn't care about these messes, it just looks at money. If you have money, various companies in Night City will provide services, and if you don't have money, get out.

The situation in Night City is very similar to Florence during the Renaissance. There are several workshops under the huge union, and each workshop is responsible for a piece of land. And there will be cooperation and competition between unions.

Although the Eastern Roman Empire was still there during the Renaissance and the great voyages had begun, Florence was reviving the system of ancient Athens.

The reason for reviving ancient Athens was mainly because the Eastern Roman Empire was still there, and they couldn't say that they were Rome. At the same time, religion was also very powerful, and they had to fight against religion.

So they looked everywhere and found an ancient Athens as their theoretical support.

The situation in Night City is similar. The parliamentary system is still there, and religion is still there. Night City uses the geographical environment to make war money. If it wants to be independent, it can only use ancient Athens and the Renaissance as its own theory.

During the Renaissance, it was also the time of the Crusades, and Florence also made war money.

It can be said that Night City is the modern Athens, the current Florence. The more chaotic the outside world is, the more money they make and the happier they are.

In Night City, everything is centered on the company. Whether it is public security, rescue, firefighting, education, etc., they are all for the purpose of making money. Even the company's bottom employees may not be able to enjoy it.

Togusa must not be able to stand this kind of environment. Everything is given priority to the company. This is too unreasonable.

"The benefits cannot all be taken by the company." He said.

"Haha, what do you think?" Duran said: "The Renaissance is a group of city-state nobles who made war money to ensure their own interests. It is a way to fight against the Eastern Roman Empire and religion, that is, to make everything beneficial to themselves. Do they still want to serve the country and the people? Naturally, everything is based on making money, which is the most beneficial to themselves and can ensure their own advantages." "So as long as we are also beneficial to the company, torture is not a problem, believe me."

The Renaissance was not for the country and the people from the beginning, but for the city-state merchants to maintain their advantages.

"No, even though we have left the island country, we cannot forget our basic principles as law enforcers and cannot cross the bottom line!" Togusa still requires himself not to forget his roots, and not to fall even in Night City.

He still uses the laws of the island country to restrain himself, unwilling to go along with the crowd, unwilling to become a thug of the company, he must be responsible for himself and the country.
