Weird Live Broadcast: I Can Deduce Endlessly

Chapter 198: Sharing a Drink (2)

"Just because it's so, does it make it right?"

Gu Yi took a swig of liquor, his gaze intense.

Er Gou was startled for a moment and looked at Gu Yi in surprise.

"What are you trying to say?"

"Do you know about Gu Yi?"

"Yeah, of course." Er Gou laughed, "He was quite the celebrity at our school. But after graduation, I never heard about him again. Just a few days ago, I got the news that he made a big mistake and has been demoted to a third-class citizen."

"Do you know how he answered during the final exam?"

"He must have sacrificed himself to save others, right?"

"No, he dealt with the person who posed the question.

The trolley problem is the most boring thought experiment in the world and also the most insoluble one. It attempts to hijack human nature, forcing you to make a seemingly correct choice.

Once you start to think about or even answer the trolley problem, you have already lost your humanity. No one has the right to strip another human being of their freedom, to decide someone else’s life and death.

Even 'Him' too."

"That's a fascinating idea, but it's hard to implement, the power of one person is ultimately limited."

"That's why you need everyone's strength.

The dopamine that freedom can bring is second only to s*x, and this feeling can be addictive. So, those miners, even knowing your prices are unfair, are still willing to trade with you.

If you want to realize your ideals, they are your true comrades."

"The crowd is a mob, have you forgotten what school taught us? Once humans join a collective, they lose rational thought and become senseless beasts."

"You've said yourself that the school's teachings are wrong. Why do you still treat their fallacies as absolute truths? Aren't you even using their knowledge and wielding their weapons, trying to defeat them with that?"

Er Gou blinked, smiling, "You talk like a philosopher writing prose."

"A good analogy," Gu Yi responded, "suddenly makes me feel like going home."

"Hehe…"

The two exchanged a smile.

Finally, at this moment, Gu Yi could confirm that the man in front of him was the "deceased" Chen Zeyu, and Er Gou also confirmed Gu Yi's identity.

At last, the system's prompt came to his ears.

"You have gained Er Gou's complete trust."

"Your plot exploration rate has increased."

"Your current plot exploration rate is 10%."

...

In the Real world.

Qu Kangping watched Gu Yi debate logically and thoroughly with Er Gou, taking a deep drag of his cigarette until his lungs burned before finally exhaling.

"A philosopher writing prose? Heh, Ah Jian also liked to use that analogy," Qu Kangping said with a laugh, "Gu Yi has grown up."

Suddenly lights went out.

The cigarette was extinguished.

Inside and outside the house, darkness enveloped everything.

As wars raged barbarically across the globe.

...

The next morning.

Kanon got up from bed and passed the courtyard, just in time to meet Er Gou, who woke up early. He nodded at her, which counted as a greeting.

By now, Er Gou had effectively put her under house arrest.

Once she left the casino, not only would the police robots keep an eye on her, but the casino's thugs also blatantly followed her, almost as if they had "We're tracking you" written on their faces.

"How annoying..."

Kanon frowned.

Er Gou was impervious to her charms, her attempts at seduction were nearly ineffective against him. Under such close surveillance, Kanon had no freedom at all.

Kanon dared not make any rash moves, as any behavior that might unsettle Er Gou could put her in danger.

"I really don't know why Gu Yi dared to pursue Er Gou's route?"

It was only then that Kanon realized that among all the paths, Gu Yi's was the most difficult.

Er Gou is a very suspicious person, and working with him means having to pass his tests over and over again.

A slight mistake, and it's all over.

Kanon worked hard in the mine, knowing that the only way to evade her pursuers was to hide in the women's bathroom.

Er Gou’s men included no women, so as long as she could get into the women's bathroom, her problems would be solved.

Moreover, she could meet Xiao Xue in the bathroom, possibly the only chance she now had to make contact with her.

After work, Kanon headed straight for the women's bathroom.

After her bath, Kanon sat quietly by the door waiting, and, as expected, Xiao Xue arrived.

Kanon approached with a smile, initiating conversation.

"Hello."

"Hmm?" Xiao Xue turned to glance at Kanon, "What is it?"

She had some impression of Kanon, but not a good one.

"I'm looking for a job."

"A job?"

"Yes, I don’t want to mine anymore, it’s too tiring."

"Ha? You were mining?" Xiao Xue pinched Kanon’s shoulder, feeling its flabbiness, "You don’t have a shred of muscle, and you say you mine?"

"I've been doing it for three or four days, I just can’t continue, it’s not suitable for me."

"Do you know what I do?"

"Of course."

Xiao Xue lifted Kanon's chin, examining her, "Not bad, good quality. Are you sure you want to work with me?"

"Of course."

"This is a job where dignity is kicked around like a ball; you can’t act like a princess here."

"Hey, in this world, who cares about dignity and life? Just yesterday, I saw a man suffocate in the mine because he refused to rent a breathing apparatus. After he died, the supervisor wouldn’t even cover him with a cloth; they dragged him out like a dead dog."

Kanon watched Xiao Xue closely; her words seemed to have struck a chord.

"Okay, I get it. Come with me, you can’t receive clients dressed like that, so follow me."

Xiao Xue and Kanon left the bathroom together.

As expected, Er Gou was indeed lurking nearby, and he was visibly shocked to see them together.

"See that man?" Xiao Xue pointed towards Er Gou in the distance, "Better stay away from him; he’s a criminal, nothing good comes from being with him."

"He’s the casino owner, right? He’s had people tracking me these past few days."

"Oh, that’s typical of him."

Xiao Xue shook her head and walked off toward the red-light district.

Er Gou caught up and blocked their path.

"Where are you going?"

"To work."

"Can’t you find another job?"

"What’s it to you? Didn’t you say you no longer have a daughter?"

"That was said in anger." Er Gou shook his head, "You don’t know how dangerous it is out there."

"Dangerous? Is there anywhere safe in this world? Just get out of my way."

"You both come with me."

"If you keep blocking me, I’m calling the police!"

Xiao Xue's eyes darted around, aware that ordinary police robots were no match for Er Gou and only real police could handle him. She grabbed Kanon's arm and headed resolutely towards the police station.

"Stop!"

Er Gou grabbed Xiao Xue's shoulder.

Seeing this, Xiao Xue immediately screamed at the top of her lungs: "Help, police! I'm being assaulted!"
