Drawing cards can't save the weird world
Chapter 10 American Freedom
Anyway, things finally came to an end.
I can be regarded as an official now, even though I am a temporary worker. But at least there is no need to think about how to deal with Sir's cross-examination!
Today's experience was too dreamy, Zhao Hao didn't have so much thought to weigh and think, he just wanted to go back to his humble little home, eat a high-calorie dinner, and then sleep. Let's talk about the rest when we wake up!
Colt still took good care of Zhao Hao, and specially sent someone to drive him to a nearby subway station.
Only at this moment did Zhao Hao remember to check where he was.
According to the subway map, he found himself in an area of Brooklyn near the sea.
It is sparsely populated and there are few large communities to be seen. On the contrary, there are quite a few agencies that have never heard of Zhao Hao's name.
Zhao Hao's home is in the suburbs of Queens, at least twenty kilometers away!
Fortunately, the subway is still convenient.
It's just that taking the subway in Liberty City is definitely not a comfortable thing.
Liberty City is an international metropolis, it is very prosperous and developed. Like the subway, here are the first few cities in the world to have subway lines. It has a history of seventy years.
The problem is, Liberty City's subway lines keep adding, but those grandparents' subways are still in use, with limited repairs. This has resulted in some lines being extremely aging and obsolete, and the environment is dirty and messy.
Zhao Hao walked down the steps to the ground, and some of the small tiles on the walls on both sides had been broken, and traces of repairs could still be seen. Some tawny water-stained star cloth compass, which shows that there are frequent water leaks here.
Walking a few steps forward, I saw a row of waiting chairs. Six of the ten chairs were broken, and the rest were filthy.
Not far away, there is a large trash can that is already "full". I don't know how long it took for no one to clean up, resulting in a lot of garbage such as packaging bags and fruit peels falling nearby. It's just a small garbage spot!
The most outrageous thing is that Zhao Hao actually saw two mice poking around near the track!
Dim lights, outdated equipment, and limited space... People who are economically able seldom take the subway. They prefer to take a taxi or drive themselves in traffic jams.
Zhao Hao couldn't care less about criticizing the decadent and backward capitalism and neglecting people's livelihood, so he just wanted to go home.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, a subway came. Zhao Hao took seven or eight stops, then returned to the ground and took a bus. At least another 30 minutes on the bus!
Just when Zhao Hao was dangling on the chair and was about to fall asleep, suddenly several gunshots came from outside the window!
"Bang bang bang!"
Zhao Hao was so excited that he quickly bowed his head instinctively.
what happened? Did Sir find a black man without ID?
As a result, he peeked out the window and saw a skinny black man running out of a convenience store. Clutching a handful of loose bills in one hand and a pistol in the other, he turned and fired as he ran.
As a result, a person also rushed out of the convenience store, holding a shotgun in both hands, and fired several times.
Zhao Hao saw that his gun was fired several times, and there were loud bang bang bang bangs, and then the black man fell to the ground with his legs hugged and howled.
Hitting a moving target at a distance of 20 meters can still hit the leg, the young man is good at marksmanship!
At this time, the experienced driver had already stepped on the accelerator and left the place of right and wrong in a hurry, so Zhao Hao couldn't continue to watch this excitement!
"Good guy, as expected of Liberty City, the country of freedom, freedom robs freedom and hurts!" Zhao Hao immediately came up with a jingle, which rhymed quite a bit.
According to my original memory, the law and order in Liberty City is really not good. Especially in special areas such as some slums and gathering places of certain special groups.
The outside of this city is glamorous, with high-rise buildings, busy traffic, neon lights reflecting on the window, and well-dressed gentlemen and ladies in a hurry...
But in the dark and dark alley, the old and dirty trash cans were overturned, the homeless fell asleep holding the wine bottle on the paper shell, and the floor was full of syringes and stunners.
The small colorful theaters in the remote streets were crowded with people, and the dissolute young men and women in bars, nightclubs, and discotheques hugged each other, even took off their clothes and fought fiercely on the spot.
On the street, hippies with long hair, leather jackets, ear piercings and even nose rings and lip rings drove a remodeled motorcycle and roared away.
There are still a large number of gang members gathered in the streets and alleys, staring at pedestrians with malicious intent...
Americo has just ended its golden age, and its rapidly developing economy has stagnated. After years of wars, the younger generation's anti-war sentiments are high. They would rather indulge and degenerate than make even a little contribution to this country.
High unemployment and high inflation coexist, and economic problems amplify social problems. A large number of low-income or even no-income social idlers move around, bringing great security risks.
Zhao Hao also read a report a few months ago, saying that the crime rate in Liberty City has risen sharply in the past six months, the city residents generally feel insecure, and the trust and expectations of Sir have dropped to the lowest point in history.
During this period, although the number of A sirs continued to increase, the equipment of A sirs continued to improve, and the consumption of bullets and black people increased greatly, crimes intensified instead.
The slums are the most dangerous places, where blacks, prostitutes, drug addicts, homosexuals, murderers, and gangsters often live here.
Speaking of which, many places in Queens are also considered poor areas, but the status is different.
Zhao Hao sorted out his memory and judged that he was definitely not reborn in the past. Instead, he came to a parallel world that seemed plausible.
Although from a microscopic point of view, it seems that Americo is similar to Laomei. But from a macro perspective, the history of this world has changed drastically!
These are not butterfly wings at all, this is a roc with wings spread twenty thousand miles!
How much does this affect the world?
Zhao Haoyuan was able to be admitted to Liberty City University in a public high school in a backward neighborhood, which is considered very hard work.
According to the history he knows, is very powerful.
However, this kind of seclusion does not mean living with eyes closed like in the late Qing Dynasty, but rather a meaning of being too lazy to communicate with backward areas.
What can best reflect this is that Ami’s high-tech products can basically find things with different principles but similar effects. What refrigerator, dryer, car, TV...
In the middle of the last century, the industrial revolution in Europe made bandits in many countries advance rapidly, occupying large colonies all over the world. Productivity is booming, and products are dumped all over the world.
Naturally, some countries have their eyes on the densely populated and wealthy land in East Asia. After all, that country is full of gold, which can be regarded as a traditional European folk tale.
Then the great powers of various countries were violently beaten, let alone open up the market. Even the United Kingdom and the United States Fleet, which attempted to open the Fuso market, was severely beaten! Known as the Black Ship Incident.
In the past hundred years, the great powers of various countries felt that they could do it, but they all got education with blood and tears there.
Under this background, anyone with a strong backing will not be reduced to being beaten and scolded at will on the street and become the end of the chain of contempt.
Of course, no matter where you are, there are always some people who like to wander.
Although officials seldom talk to the outside world, they do not prohibit non-governmental exchanges. There are still many people who come to foreign countries for various reasons.
After many reformers failed, they could only live in exile. There are also some who did not do well in their hometowns, who were eager to venture out, and who had to leave their hometowns for various reasons.
Generally, Fusang, Korea and the affiliated countries in Southeast Asia are good places to go. There are also people who have traveled across the ocean to Americo or Europe!
It is said that the first group of people who came to Americo had already arrived in Americo during the westward movement in the last century.
And they came in a group, quite a lot of people.
It is even said that some of the Indians survived in the end because they later formed an alliance and finally defended the west coast and several nearby inland states. Several large tribes were able to join the United States of America as a "country"...
All in all, the mix is not bad. Although the neighborhoods where people live in agglomeration are not as good as those famous neighborhoods, they are not bad. At least it's safe enough. It can be regarded as an elite block in a slum area.
But Zhao Hao's home is not nearby, because the housing prices there are already very high.
Back then, for some unknown reason, his mother brought Zhao Hao, who was only five years old, to Americo. Although it was a bit expensive, she had no choice but to buy a small house in a safer suburb.
The housing prices in Liberty City vary greatly due to different regions. In the most expensive place, a bathroom is more expensive than a house in a remote place~ Zibenism features!
There are very few office buildings in Queens, and even the buildings on the street are mostly two or three-story buildings, with no more than five floors at most.
More of them are rows of small one-story houses with courtyards, not to mention that Zhao Hao's place is still in the suburbs, and the land here is cheap.
After arriving at the station, Zhao Hao saw rows of gourmet carts on the street, selling sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, and rice bowls, much like the stalls buying pancakes and finger cakes near the station in his previous life.
All kinds of aromas mixed together and penetrated into Zhao Hao's nostrils, ravaging Zhao Hao's shriveled stomach.
purchase!
Zhao Hao rummaged through his pockets, and there were more than forty knives! Enough!
He bought enough food for three people. He was so hungry that he ate while walking. He barely made it to the bottom after eating two hot dogs and a big hamburger.
I don't know if it's because of my improved physique, but my appetite has also increased significantly.
After walking for another ten minutes, I finally returned to the community, and I could see the roof of my house from a distance.
Happy Children's Day everyone!
I wish you all go through thousands of sails and come back as a virgin~
