Chapter 1091

Public canteen.

Booker and Elizabeth are waiting for the machine to take out the meal. They have been settled down by the civil servants here, bathed in an independent residence and changed into suitable clothes. Booker was wearing a sturdy gray work dress, while Elizabeth chose a goose yellow printed spinning dress.

"Booker, do you think this is another Colombia?"

"Perhaps, my first impression of these two places is always wonderful, but the connotation of Colombia is very shallow, but the feeling here is very warm." Buck looked around at the people in the canteen. They had a busy, lively and serious temperament. They ate quickly. The whole environment was noisy, but it didn't seem busy and crowded. "It seems that everyone of them has a job. Maybe they are all workers. I want to meet the artists and writers here. "

A middle-aged man lined up behind them couldn't help saying, "I'm the artist you're looking for."

Buck was surprised. "You don't look like you."

"Artists also have to work eight hours a day, leaving the rest for creation." The middle-aged man was curious about Booker. "I saw your news in the forum. Welcome guests from another parallel universe. I always thought this theory was made up by scientists. If I have a chance, I'd like to draw a portrait for you. "

People around them also looked at Booker with curious eyes. The residents of the city were warm and indifferent, and maintained a courteous closeness.

Not everyone can speak their language. Booker's communication is very problematic. The world is also the earth, but the course of the planet is different from that of Booker's original world. These differences need patient research to understand. Booker and his wife are just passing by in a hurry and do not intend to stay here for a long time.

Booker and Elizabeth are allowed to move freely in this future city with parallel time and space. As long as they do not commit acts endangering community safety, they will not be monitored and punished.

A young man is in charge of receiving the two guests.

After dinner, the man in costume came to find them again. The other party said he had gone through the crack and turned around their world in Booker.

Elizabeth said with a smile, "what did you see there in less than half a day?"

"I've seen what I should see." the man put his left leg on his right leg and sat comfortably. "There are two cities in your world, one in the sky, called Colombia, and the other on the sea, called ecstatic city. In our world, there is such a city on the earth, called Drum Mountain. They are also isolated from the world. Let me say that the two cities over there have no future if they don't make changes. The backward management system, stupid social ideas and the regime full of bourgeois fantasies have done their best just when it works, not to mention development. It is bound to collapse in less than half a century. "

Booker had a deep understanding of this, "what you said is very reasonable, but what's the difference between Gushan?"

"Gushan is not a simple city. It is a social experimental field. A successful and stable model is very important for the practice of theory. I have noticed that there are similar social trends in your world. We can strengthen cooperation, joint research and common progress, so as to make the bright future of mankind come earlier. "

Booker's communication with the person in charge of Gushan did not attract Elizabeth's interest. Booker and they also found out, so they let her go out for a stroll“ Be careful, Elizabeth. " Elizabeth just nodded excitedly.

"That girl," the man frowned, "she's great. GUSHAN is a closed space-time. I thought this closure was complete, but there was an accident like you. " He stretched his eyebrows again and made a joking gesture. "It seems that don't feel too good before doing anything."

Booker was surprised when he heard this. The man seemed to guess his idea immediately. "Don't get me wrong. I've always talked like this. If I have any implication, I won't hide it."

"You are a respected leader."

The man shook his head. "It's very insincere of you to say these words. We are all comrades with ideals. Although we live in different worlds and different revolutionary theories, we live in similar trends and have the same determination. If you like, you can stay in Gushan for a few more days. Comrade Bian Ning will take care of you. You can ask him any questions. If you want to go, you can go at any time. We will not restrict your personal freedom. However, the way you travel through time and space is very important. It is an opportunity for both our worlds. I urge you to think more about whether this gap can become a bridge for communication between our two sides. "

"We'll think about it."

On the other side, Elizabeth wandered in Gushan street. If Booker was kind to the city because he returned to the cluster of idealists, Elizabeth felt very uncomfortable here. Her ability is strongly restrained here, just like being in the siphon device, but the difference is that the siphon will draw away her energy, resulting in her inability to open the space-time crack. However, in this world, she has power, but it is difficult to observe the crack.

In Booker's eyes, the world is a prosperous human city, but in Elizabeth's eyes, it is a desert, wilderness and lifeless. There is the possibility of swallowing the world in a huge background, just like a dark abyss, swallowing all the tributaries of the river. Elizabeth looked up at the purple sky. A stranger came up from behind and stood side by side with her, also looking at the sky. Elizabeth trembled with fear as she recovered. "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't notice you. Can I help you? " Lu Zongping also looked up at the sky. "It's very different here, isn't it?" He speaks standard English“ Yes, sir, the city is very prosperous. "“ For ordinary people, it is, but for you, the city must be particularly pale. As a quantum observer beyond time and space, you can see all the possibilities of the world, but here, these possibilities are covered, suppressed and destroyed by a huge field. "“ wow No, I mean, your words are very reasonable, but I'm not as powerful as you say. " Lu Zongping shook his head. "Your ability is limited by the siphon device in that tower, but since you are in this time and space, that tower can't continue to exert influence on you. Over time, you will become stronger and closer to your destiny. Cherish your time, cherish your time with Booker DeWitt. "“ I don't understand. "“ All along, there have been many doubts. You may have noticed, but you didn't ask questions. Because you are too eager for freedom, you will selectively give up some questions for fear of complications, so you can't go to Paris. In fact, Paris is nothing good. Slowly, you will find that all cities in the world are the same, just like cages, trapping people in them. It's just the prisoners in the cage. Everyone is trying to do something to make himself look alive and free. Colombia is like this, Paris is like this, and so is Gushan. You want to be free. You don't want to be free when you go to Paris. In fact, what does Paris have? Romance, passion, praiseworthy bread, and stories. These are created by people. If you want freedom, do something. "“ Do something? "“ Yes, anything, everything. " Lu Zongping smiled simply, "sometimes don't be so compassionate and save the world. Only narcissists regard it as their mission. Any great change starts from a small place. This truth is often understood by many people, but they don't understand it. It's not that they don't understand it, but they just lack a fundamental foothold, Will be swept away by the current. Elizabeth, go live and work. When you find your foothold, it's not too late to go to Paris. "
