Tokyo underground city

Chapter 55 Diary

Of course, Lin Huai'en believed that even without the backpack, the human skin map, which looked like part of the remains of "that lord" mentioned by the mummy swordsman, should have survived.

But the same cannot be said for the diary.

Lin Huai'en opened the diary and checked it. He was very sure that this was really just an ordinary diary.

The diary looks like it was written in the handwriting of a preschooler, with some crooked patterns written on it. Even the cursed body's built-in reading and writing functions must be read very slowly in order to read these abstract ghost symbols. Translate the meaning in the diary.

【November 11】

[After leaving home for twenty days, there is no need to sleep in the car. 】

【I saw the Holy Spirit, it is so beautiful. 】

[I told my mother and she asked me to write it down. 】

【I started writing a diary. 】

.

【November 12】

【First day in new home】

[The uncle and brother next door were very friendly. A sister with long hair gave me two pieces of chocolate. I thanked her. 】

[My mother started teaching me to keep a diary. 】

.

【November 17】

[I have been playing with my friends in rooms 102 and 103 these days. 】

[My mother asked me to write a diary, but I always forget it. 】

[She is angry today. 】

.

【November 19】

[I asked my mother what happened outside, but she didn’t want to tell me. 】

[I asked my dad, and he said the weather outside was getting cooler. 】

[So everyone must live in the city. 】

.

【November 22nd】

[I saw the Holy Spirit again today. He was wearing a white (crossed out) robe and was more beautiful than the big sister in cabin 103 next door. 】

[The eldest sister in cabin 103 is probably the most beautiful person I have ever seen, except Lord Holy Spirit! 】

.

【November 24】

【I like my new home! 】

[Although the area is not large, everyone is a good person and all my friends live nearby. 】

[I feel very happy (cross out) happiness! 】

[Mom taught me a new word today, happiness! 】

.

【November 26】

[I heard my father talking to the adults in other cabins about things outside. 】

[Not everyone can live in a new home. 】

[Only the kindest people can. 】

[They are praising the Holy Spirit. 】

【Praise to the holy salt! 】

.

【November 28】

【I am six years old today. 】

[My mother taught me how to pray. 】

[She made me drink water soaked in holy salt. 】

[It says it can purify my soul. 】

[But let’s be honest. 】

【So salty! 】

.

【December 1st】

[The new January has begun. Mom and the others have contacted schools outside and plan to send us to school. 】

[I don’t want to go to school, but the Holy Spirit said that you can’t become a kind person without going to school. 】

[If you cannot become a kind person, you cannot be chosen by the goddess and become a citizen of the Eternal Kingdom. 】

【So I have to study hard! 】

[Just like mom and dad, be a very, very kind person! 】

.

【December 2nd】

[I left my new home today and was shocked by the outside world! 】

[It turns out that not everyone can live in a new home. 】

[Except for us, only a few people have their own rooms. 】

[Everyone else sleeps in the same bed! 】

[What a huge bed that must be! 】

.

【December 7】

【I was very unhappy at school today. 】

[My mother asked me what was going on, and I told her that we were isolated from other children. 】

[Our clothes are very clean and we can take a shower every day. Others can only fight for water. 】

[So they exclude us. 】

[Refer to us as the "Children from Above." 】

[I don’t want to be the kid above. 】

.

【December 8】

[Dad and I chatted. 】

[He told me that the children above are the kindest children and are the chosen ones. 】

[The children below are unkind children, children who were not chosen. 】

[They exclude me because they are not kind. 】

[But I can’t be angry with them because they exclude us, because then I won’t be kind. 】

[People who are not kind cannot enter the eternal kingdom with the Holy Spirit. 】

[So I don’t want to be an unkind person. 】

.

【December 9】

[Anrusen in cabin 102 hit someone. 】

[He injured several people because Annie was bullied by the children below. 】

[The others and I looked on, not daring to speak. 】

[Only Jon rushed forward, hugged Anrusen, and stopped him! 】

[I think Jon is like a hero in the Holy Spirit’s words. 】

[We girls all like heroes like him! 】

.

【December 12】

[Today was supposed to be a day off, but there were curse words coming from Cabin 102. 】

[I’m extremely surprised. I haven’t heard any curse words “up there” yet. 】

[The uncles and aunts of 101, 102, and 103 are very kind, and my father and mother are also very kind! 】

[We are all good people of the Goddess of Salt! 】

.

【December 13】

[Jon told me that the Anruson family moved away because Anruson beat the children of the people below. 】

[As the people above, we are happier than the people below, but this is not our right, but a reward for our kindness from the Holy Spirit and the Goddess of Salt. 】

[I must keep this in mind, otherwise I will become like Andrewson and his parents. 】

[I heard from Jon that Anrusen had been crying when he was taken away by the guards. 】

[His mother is also crying. 】

[Only his father kept apologizing to others. 】

[I don’t know why, although I don’t like An Rusen, I feel bad. 】

.

【December 15】

[New residents moved into cabin 102 today! 】

[Mom told me that they came from below to take the place of Andrew’s family! 】

[The new family are all devout believers of the goddess! Their child is a girl the same age as me, named Diana! 】

[I have a hunch that I will become good friends with her! 】

【She is so cute! 】

.

【December 20】

【……】

Lin Huai'en sat on the dressing table in room three and read through the diary in the child's backpack bit by bit.

The diary has only 52 pages, of which only 20 contain recorded contents.

The content before December 20th is relatively coherent, while the content after December 20 is relatively scattered.

Most of them are written by the little owner of the diary, recording her daily life, what she learned today, where she went to play with her friends, whether she saw Lord Holy Spirit again today, and what the adults talked about today.

It's a bit of a rundown, but there's still a lot of very critical information.

At least, from the little girl’s notes, Lin Huai’en learned the name of Lord Holy Spirit——

"Telaris".

At first glance, it sounds like a female name, but in fact it is indistinguishable from male to female.

Because He could also be written as "Telaris", the little girl didn't know how to write His name and just wrote the pronunciation.

"But judging from the term 'Lord Holy Spirit', maybe it is really hermaphrodite, or genderless..."

Lin Huai'en recalled the descriptions of the gender of angels in various stories and myths in his mind, and he had some vague guesses in his mind.

In addition, Lin Huai'en also learned about the political structure of this shelter from the little girl's diary.

"If I understand correctly, this sanctuary should be managed by a religious organization called the 'Holy Salt Sect'."

"Holy Spirit Lady Terraris should be the actual manager of Salt 10 Shelter."

"And this religious organization claims that using holy salt can purify the souls of believers, allowing believers to enter the eternal kingdom of Salt God after death and become people of the Goddess of Salt."

"But the salt of purification will not be awarded to everyone, and only those who are the kindest are eligible to receive the holy salt."

“The more Masses are made with holy salt, the more opportunities there will be for the Holy Spirit after death.”

"There is even a chance to become an existence like the superior Holy Spirit Terraris."

Regardless of whether such teachings are true or false, at least from the little girl's description, Lin Huai'en can feel the effect this teachings have on the lower class people.

"It's as if 'goodness' is used as the only criterion for selecting the ruling class, and the actual means of controlling believers are in the hands of the church and the Holy Spirit Terraris."

"A fairly advanced centralized system of democracy." Lin Huai'en thought for a moment about what would happen if the powerless upper-class little girls from various countries in ancient times were placed among the children of the lower classes.

"Either the little girls from the upper class are riding on the heads of the lower class people and domineering, or the children of the lower class people are gritting their teeth and trying to kill the children of the upper class people."

None of these things happened. In fact, only the children at the bottom were jealous of the children at the top.

Considering that they are still in such an extreme environment as the shelter, it can be said that the Holy Salt Sect has achieved the ultimate in "Government by Virtue".

This situation reminded Lin Huai'en of Karl Marx's famous saying -

["Religion is the sigh of the oppressed, the heart of the world that has lost its heart, the soul of the soul-eating situation, and the opium of the people.\
