Age of the Mist

Chapter 227 Complacent and Sudden Calmness (Part [-])

"Huh?" Shi Tiexin looked up at the girl in the red skirt with a very surprised expression, he didn't expect her to say such a thing.

"I don't understand? It doesn't matter whether you are going smoothly or getting promoted at every step, it's just a superficial phenomenon. Today I advise you, don't be too complacent." Tie Xin looked at each other: "The next thing you have to face is a more severe situation. If you like to listen, I will tell you. If you don't like to listen, then forget it."

Shi Tiexin stopped playing and straightened up to look at the girl in the red dress.He put away his surprise, and the young heart felt a little displeased when he heard the girl in the red dress say so abruptly.But after he was silent for a moment, he still said in a deep voice: "Good medicine is good for the disease, and honest words are good for deeds. Please give me some advice."

"Okay." The girl in the red skirt put down the cue, walked over and stood side by side with Shi Tiexin, and sat on the edge of the pool table with her hips.Under the leather outfit, the legs look very slender.

The distance between the two is two punches, not close but not distant.Such a shoulder-to-shoulder way of communication makes people subconsciously feel that the other party is on the same side as themselves.The nose smelled the slight fragrance of the girl in the red skirt, and the unhappiness just now dissipated with the wind.

"Tokyo is a lawless place now, but compared to the truly chaotic South America, Tokyo's order is much better. It is clear that the government here can hardly control anything, but the law and order environment here has not deteriorated to the point where residents cannot survive. There aren't too many shootings either."

"Do you know why?"

The question posed by the girl in red made Shi Tiexin scratch his head.

He didn't think about it.

Even if he thought about it, he couldn't figure out the answer to the question with his knowledge.However, what the girl in the red skirt said was indeed true. There is lawlessness here in Tokyo, but the level of force in gang fights is not high.Deadfire shootings are not common on the streets, and the newcomers are armed with katana swords, not submachine guns.

A truly lawless place should not behave like this.

Shi Tiexin looked at the girl in the red dress.

The girl in the red dress gave an answer that surprised Shi Tiexin.

"Because I dare not."

"Don't you dare?"

"That's right. There are many reasons for the current social situation, which are very complicated and cannot be explained at the moment. But one of the most important points is the mutual restraint and the fear of the military power of the East and the West."

"Think about it, who are the people who come to Japan to mess around? They are all losers who can't get along in their own country, or speculators with no big background."

"You may think my words are harsh, but that's the truth. Those powerful people here who seem to be in charge of the wind and rain are actually losers who fled here to survive, or gamblers who don't regret throwing their lives away. Hongshunshe Brother Ouyang is a loser, and your immediate boss, hehe, is a gambler."

"And among the people who make up the upper-level power here, the losers make up the vast majority. Because although they are losers, they are much better than unrooted gamblers."

"At the stage when the military power of the Eastern and Western countries is stalemate, Japan seems to be indifferent. But does it really care? This is the world's second economic power, and the military must compete. It's just that the real boss is still playing games outside the court, and has no official entry. It's just a field."

"Those losers are just trying to survive in the cracks. The guillotine above their heads may fall at any time, and they must be cautious and trembling. Under such circumstances, can they not be afraid and careless?"

"It's not that everyone doesn't have guns, it's just that they don't dare to use them, and they don't dare to send weapons into the hands of lunatics."

"This is a balance that all the losers know tacitly and maintain together. They come to take refuge, to survive, to make money, not to fight desperately. And they will not dance too much, afraid It was noticed. Even if they really have any ideas, they are just messing around in the underworld, and they dare not put them on the table, so the order here in Tokyo is still passable."

Hearing what she said, Shi Tiexin suddenly understood Daxing's thoughts.Thinking about that helmsman, he has always been a mediocre, shady, timid and mediocre person, which makes people think he is a waste.

Hearing what the girl in the red dress said now, he somewhat understood what these people were thinking and understood the cause of the current situation.

"It's a pity, some people don't play cards according to common sense." The girl in the red skirt looked at Shi Tiexin: "A group of losers broke into a desperate gambler in a high-end game, and then this gambler flipped the table. For a while , Of course, this gambler is going smoothly, and he looks like he has won a big victory. But guess what will happen to this gambler next?"

Shi Tiexin was a little embarrassed: "Probably they will be targeted collectively."

On this point, Wang Dafa actually told him, but it was not as clear and thorough as what the girl in the red skirt said, and she didn't explain the cause and effect clearly.

"Being targeted is just one of them, and it's the least important one." The girl in the red dress looked like you were still too young, and shook a finger: "The real trouble is that Tokyo is a weapon arsenal. Now those weapons that were not dared to take out will be taken out step by step with someone taking the lead."

"There is no way. Successful gamblers set an example for more gamblers, and captured losers also provide lessons for even more losers. Other gamblers must be ruthless if they want to seize the opportunity to earn a vote." Rape. Other losers can only fight back if they don’t want to sit still.”

"The situation here affects the whole body, and now that it has been affected, the whole body will of course follow suit."

"Do you understand now? You are blooming like a brocade now, and the fire is cooking oil, but on the other hand, it is also a blessing and a disaster. I see you building a tall building, watching you entertain guests, but I don't want to see your building collapse."

"Because, as you said, you're not a bad person."

The girl in the red dress raised her hand and patted Shi Tiexin's shoulder, got up and went to get the club again, as if that was all she had to say, no more to say.

Shi Tiexin didn't move, he leaned on the table and thought deeply.

What the girl in the red dress said made sense.Even if you don't believe it all, most of the content should be meaningful and not bad.

For a moment, Shi Tiexin was a little alert.

During this period of promotion and salary increase, staking land, and being famous in the streets, he asked himself, he was indeed a little complacent.If heaven wants to destroy people, it must first make people crazy.The consequences of self-satisfaction may be an abyss.

What the girl in the red dress said made Shi Tiexin calm down.After calming down, I couldn't help feeling a little scared.If you continue to be complacent, if you meet your deadly opponent again, if the opponent no longer wields knives and punches but focuses on machine guns as soon as they come up, will your boxing skills still be useful?

After thinking for a long time, Shi Tiexin finally thanked the girl in the red skirt earnestly: "Thank you for reminding me. Speaking of which, you have such insight, it seems that you are not a simple person."

"I'm sorry. In troubled times, who doesn't have the ability to save their lives?" The girl in the red dress took it for granted, "Besides, being as beautiful as me, I need some insight to live freely."
