The night in Old Turin is always like that. Countless factories stand on this land. Thick smoke rises from the chimney inside and turns into gray silhouettes in the dim light. The steel whale is as usual, Wandering in this gray and black ocean, from time to time he moved his eyes to the ground, and then there was light.

Joey was leaning against the window. It was late at night. The world outside the window was quiet. Only the faint noise of the machine came from a distance. The stove there never went out and the machine never stopped operating.

It seems that the day’s work is a bit too tiring. Joey looks very tired. There is a ticking sound in the room behind him. A large Geiger counter is standing in it. It works day and night in this stronghold.

The rest of the people had already got off work, and the room was empty. Joey rubbed his eyes. Finally, he was not on duty tonight. He should have gone to bed earlier. Then someone pushed the door open and Red Eagle walked in.

“Are you on duty today?”

Joey was a little surprised. Although he lives in the stronghold, he is just an ordinary person, and he can’t stay vigilant for 24 hours, so someone will come to watch for him, but he didn’t expect it to be Red Eagle.

“if not?”

Red Eagle said with an unhappy expression.

“I’m just a worker, and I don’t want to, but the schedule is so arranged, I can’t use the knife to cut Arthur, right.”

Red Eagle spoke and leaned against the window, seeming to want to see where Joey was looking, his eyes flicking back in the night view.

Joey didn’t speak, just stared outside, after a long time, unfathomable mystery smiled.

“what happened?”

Red Eagle curiously asked, Joey behaved strangely.

“You know? The doctors at Black Mountain Hospital often tell me that people will become negative and… sad at night, so he suggested that I sleep well at night and don’t think about it.”

“So are you thinking about it now?”

“probably.”

“Then what are you thinking?”

It’s time to say that I am an old colleague, you just talked about unfathomable mystery.

Two people stood in an empty room, and as the night wind poured in, papers full of handwriting floated up. Red Eagle also forgot that he was on duty, and Joey also forgot that he wanted to go back to the house to sleep after the handover.

“Lorenzo once told me that he is a person who is prone to overthinking. Let his thoughts diverge and keep thinking. It may be influenced by him. Sometimes I will do this too…”

“such as?”

“For example, I saw those at the end of the horizon…”

Joey stretched out his hand as he said, pointing to the factories that were clustered like jungles. They showed gray silhouettes, and the extended chimneys were like twisted branches and leaves, weird.

“When I saw those factories, I would associate unfathomable mystery with the news about Salicardo Duke. You should remember that in the case of the’Study of Blood Letters’, because of the oppression of the survivors, the scene against Salicardo Duke Attack.”

Hearing Joey’s words, Red Eagle also thought of those, and that incident was the first time they came into contact with Reverend Lawrence.

“Is that incident over? In fact, none. The problems about the survivors have not been resolved, and the status quo has not been changed. Salicardo started to develop civilian airships. In order to speed up the pace, the factory works around the clock.

Joey is babbling.

“The result is that there were several riots in the industrial area a few days ago. It was the survivors and the Irvine people.”

“Are you starting to care about these?” Red Eagle slightly frowned.

“No, it’s just the association brought by overthinking. I know that thinking about these things is useless, but people have empathy. This is a flaw. It allows us to understand the sadness of others, even if he is not from Irvine, even if he is not a person… …Even those of us who fight against Demon will have this kind of heart.

When I see the poor puppy, I feel pity and feel that I am also suffering the same pain as it…”

Joey paused, then said.

“Actually, I don’t know what I’m talking about. I just casually say what I think of. But Red Eagle sometimes feels that this World is a bit too desperate. I know that we people should be used to these things a long time ago. It does not mean that you are not afraid. Even soldiers who are familiar with war will feel fear when they clenched their weapons.

There are many such factories. The entire world is a huge factory. We seem to be free, but we are only in a bigger prison.

Everyone is like this. It is forcibly stuffed inside the machine and becomes a small gear. Maybe this size is not appropriate, but I will wear out to a suitable look during long-term operation… In fact, sometimes I also Forget about what I live for. I am not referring to the kind of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but more advanced…things worth pursuing. “

Red Eagle looked at Joey sluggishly. He knew that Joey was a guy with a higher level of thinking than himself, but he never thought he could…associate so much.

“I feel like you are a philosopher.” Red Eagle said.

In the eyes of Red Eagle, Joey does have the temperament of a philosopher and Scholar. He was born in Upright Sect inside, and he knows the manners strictly. He is different from people like Red Eagle who crawl out of the lower city district, and Joey will always be like that. He is approachable, just like strange obsessive-compulsive disorder and cleanliness, he is always so neat.

Sometimes Red Eagle even saw him after the battle, the first thing was to change into clean clothes.

“It’s just a little sentimental.” Joey replied.

“Don’t be humble, I’m not complimenting you.”

Red Eagle continued, and he looked at Joey from top to bottom.

“You feel like a philosopher who is depressed, and people like you usually can’t help but jump from upstairs behind the horns of thinking.”

Red Eagle spoke and gestured. The palm stood up, like a leaping bird, flying to a high place, and then fell to the ground to death. In order to be realistic, he made ridiculous onomatopoeia.

Joey was not amused, but he thought about it seriously.

“Suicide? This is unlikely.”

Taking into account many factors, Joey pessimistically found that he has many constraints and concerns even if he is seeking death.

“Why do you need a serious answer?”

Red Eagle felt that he couldn’t keep up with this slightly sad guy.

“Wait, Joey, you won’t…”

Red Eagle thought of something, and asked worriedly.

“No, I haven’t touched hallucinogen for a long time, and if I did, I wouldn’t be so conscious of talking to you.”

Joey replied decisively as if he knew what Red Eagle was worried about.

“Then… Then did you use hallucinogen because of this trouble before?”

Red Eagle only knew that Joey had used hallucinogen and stayed in Black Mountain Hospital for a period of time. He didn’t know the more detailed information.

But this is also normal. After all, the working clients are demons. The Knights of the cleansing agency will inevitably have some strange symptoms. Sometimes you don’t have any symptoms but a special one.

“Hmm…not really, I just joined the cleansing agency at that time, dealing with these evil things all day long, after each action, it takes a period of psychological counseling, and then… and then I ran into hallucinogen, I I want to escape those nightmares, but I don’t know I’m caught in a bigger nightmare inside.”

Joey conceived his own ideas, and then said them little by little.

“People shouldn’t live just for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. They should have more noble things. Of course, everyone has different definitions of nobility. For Lorenzo, cutting Demon is noble, and for you, clothing, food, housing and transportation should be noble.”

As he said, he looked towards Red Eagle, Red Eagle, he seems to never feel sad, at least not as sad as Joey, he seems to be an easily satisfied person.

“Almost, in fact, this must be combined with personal experience. If our identities are exchanged, maybe I will be as sad as you, but we are not.”

As if to enlighten this sad friend at night, Red Eagle said.

“You should know that before I joined the cleansing agency, I was just a gangster in the lower city district. I was ganging up with a friend of mine, robbery and fights. If I didn’t meet Burlau, I might have died in a dark street corner. Up.

So I’ve always been fortunate and feel that every minute I’ve spent now is a gift of life. Although this job is a bit weird and the risk is greater than in the lower city district, it can at least guarantee food and clothing. Not only that, but it also guarantees food and clothing. It is perfect to make an insignificant contribution to all mankind. “

Red Eagle was still proud of unfathomable mystery.

“The more you think, the more painful it will be. I really envy single-celled creatures like you.” While Joey was envious, he didn’t forget to laugh at his colleagues.

“?”

Red Eagle looked puzzled. This guy who had never gone to school in the lower city district to go through arduous training or hard work had obviously suffered an illiterate loss at this time.

“I just feel a little confused, Red Eagle, we keep fighting against Demon, day after day, I know this is for more people, but sometimes I always think about what I want.

People should have higher pursuits.

But then I thought of the survivors, those who worked day and night in the factory, just for a meager income, to maintain their on the verge of collapse… In fact, they should be like me, what they want Things, but they were tightly trapped by the cage of reality. “

Red Eagle said, “Do you love the world?”

Joey looked like a sad statue of Holy Mother in his eyes, maybe Joey would come to forgive Red Eagle’s sin in the next second.

“No, I just know the pain between everyone, but I am at a loss. Everyone has worked very hard to live, but the iron curtain still keeps falling down…”

He shook the head and said his strange feelings.

“I can’t help anyone, I can’t even help myself, I can only witness its fall until it crushes everyone.”

Joey paused, then said again.

“Not to mention that there are those who have jumped back, such as the former survivors who were expected to get a formal identity… at least a formal job position, but they were destroyed by those who are also the survivors, even our Irvine people. Just make sure you live well.”

“Of course this is just my cranky thinking. People are always emotionally low at night, right?”

Red Eagle nodded.

“It’s really what you can think of. If you change me, I might not think so much.”

“what will you do?”

Red Eagle thought about it carefully and then drew out the weapon he was wearing.

“Loudly shouted’Dog stuff! You betrayed the working class!’ Then ventilate his head, like this.”

Joey is still expressionless. It seems that Red Eagle’s jokes are difficult to save the sinking mood of this colleague. He put down his weapon, and then some helplessly said.

“Yeah, in fact, I sometimes feel depressed. For example, Arthur assigns me some terrible actions. Before each action, I have to write a will, and it says that I don’t have much property or much. Family, wow, you made me feel depressed too!”

“But what can I do, at most it’s eccentric to Arthur.”

Red Eagle said, thinking of something, and continued to enlighten Joey.

“Remember Nicolas? Perpetual motion pump. Actually, I think his point of view is quite interesting.”

“what?”

“Meaningless.”

Red Eagle said.

“Everything is meaningless, we still have them, Irvine and this World, everything is meaningless.

We will die, buildings will collapse, Kingdom will perish, even knowledge will pass away in the torrent of time, everything is meaningless.

Our battles, our monuments, and those enemies, demons, those shadows all over the world, monsters, and even Salicardo Duke. What is the use of even more wealth? It cannot buy eternal life, it cannot buy eternity, it is meaningless, wealth is determined by people, when we all die, it is just a golden-bright and dazzling metal.

Everything we do is in vain, just like shooting stars in the night sky, glorious in a flash, nothing can even remember these forever.

Our pain, sadness, anger, and guilt are meaningless. “

Red Eagle said and hung his head. He didn’t know why there was so much bullshit today. It might be the reason for being infected by Lorenzo. That bad guy is like that, always saying something unfathomable mystery. He pulled Joey to keep him away from the window.

“Yeah, it makes no sense.”

He shouted loudly.

“Everyone will die, and the troubles we have will dissipate when we die.”

Everything that is confusing and greedy, no matter how much money and glory, will only become nothing after death. Even if someone remembers it, it will wear out in the long river of time.

Red Eagle extend the hand, resting on Joey’s shoulder.

“So don’t think about it, Joey, I brought a supper, do you want to be together?”
