Survivorship Bias

      The folds were all revealed in front of Shen Ti's eyes.

    The wind blew An Wujiu's hair, he raised his hand and pulled the hair on his cheeks behind his ears.

    “Not now.” An Wujiu said.

    Shen Ti asked him why.

    "Because you don't want to say it yet." An Wujiu pursed his lips, looking at Shen Ti's eyes so clear that it was like the only lake in this wilderness.

    "When you want to say it, you will naturally say it."

    The atmosphere between them changed from joking to serious due to the serious attitude of An Wugui.

    Shen Ti stopped joking and walked forward side by side with him.

    It was a wonderful experience for both of them.

    Having participated in so many rounds of games, Shen Ti has never had a companion. The reason is very simple, he doesn't need it or is interested. It was the first time for him to come back to reality together like this.

    It is even stranger to the safety of amnesia.

    "You said I would take you in..." He turned his head sideways, "Where is your home?"

    Shen Ti smiled, "I have no home. I have nowhere to go."

    "Then where did you stay after you returned to reality from the altar last time?" An Wujiu frowned slightly, it seemed to have a pitiful beauty, but he himself Speak directly, like an interrogating police officer.

    Shen Ti made a thought, paused, and then showed the expression that he finally remembered, "Underground Club. I bought a special cocktail of synthetic ingredients, the name is PianoMan."

    Listening to him talking about underground clubs and wine, An Wu Jiu felt a little curious in his heart.

    "Is it good?"

    "Generally, it smells like chemical synthesis. But it's so strong, I fell asleep after drinking it."

    An Wujiu kept looking at him, "Where do you sleep?"

    In An Wujiu's impression, underground clubs are very messy places, and they are usually not legal, but the current government's control is limited, and it is difficult to reach out to other places. Behind those clubs are often big capitalist conglomerates, which seem to be places for entertainment, but in fact there are many criminal strongholds hidden behind them.

    Drugs, human trafficking, pornography, illegal circulation of virtual currency, countless crimes.

    “How dare you lie in that kind of place all night.” An Wujiu said slowly, “I heard that many people are stunned in underground clubs. Compulsive **** becomes a **** partner, almost as an organ provider."

    This word sounds very high-sounding, but in fact it means that people can harvest organs and provide them to those who buy them at a high price and fit them. Today's environment is so polluted that six out of ten people suffer from diseases that require organ transplants.

    An Wugui didn't expect that after hearing his words, Shen Ti's first reaction was so biased.

    "Then do you think I belong to the category with good qualifications or poor qualifications?"

    I was walking forward non-stop, when I heard this question, An Wujiu stopped.

    He turned around and took a closer look at Shen Ti's face, especially those eyes.

    This person even has brown eyelashes, which become translucent in the sun.

    Usually speaking, being scrutinized by a person will cause more or less discomfort, and always feel that your appearance is being stared at. But it was very strange, when An Wujiu stared at it, Shen Ti actually thought it was very interesting.

    As if scanned by a sincere artificial intelligence.

    The scan was, "The good one."

    An Wujiu retracted his gaze and added a sentence in his heart.

    Still the best.

    Shen Ti chuckled softly.

    “How on earth did you become like this?” An Wujiu walked forward, so Shen Ti followed, “When you’re kind, you don’t lie at all, your sincerity is terrible. Bad It's just unscrupulous at times, and there is no bottom line."

    An Wujiu didn't know the reason.

    So he walked forward silently without answering.

    Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up, accompanied by the loud noise of the engine and wing wheels turning. An Wu Jiu turned his head, his long hair was lifted by the wind.

    This is a retrofitted vintage aircraft, similar in size to past helicopters, in the shape of an ellipsoid. The aircraft gradually descended, and the cracked glass window also descended. A person stuck out half of his head and pushed the flying glasses up.

    It's Wu You.

    Thinking of Zhong Yirou's locomotive, this was the second thing that surprised An Wugui after returning to reality.

    Wu You controlled the button and opened the door of the aircraft. Although it was old, there was enough space for two people.

    He proposed to take An Wu Jiu for a ride, An Wu Jiu didn't say anything, Shen Ti first got into it.

    "The seats are quite comfortable."

    Wu You put on the glasses again, "I bought it from the second-hand market. The previous owner was a fat man who died of a venereal disease and a new type of tuberculosis."

    After he finished speaking, he added, "This is what the product description says."

    Shen Ti's face turned bad in an instant, he lifted his butt, and saw that An Wujiu had already sat in, so he just sat down again.

    "It has been disinfected seven or eight times." Wu You glanced at Shen Ti from the rearview mirror, and whispered, "I'm afraid of dead ghosts."

    An Wujiu also found that many parts in the aircraft are of different colors, old and new.

    It's like a patchwork.

    There is no good quality in the flea market.

    "Who said that." Wu You pressed the safety button and observed An Wugui's reaction from the rearview mirror.

    An Wu Jiu also looked at him from the mirror.

    "I found out from the next morning." An Wujiu said, "You are not simple at all. The panic, impulsiveness and timidity you showed after entering the game were all disguised. Because you wish I could sympathize with you, or take advantage of you."

    Wu You is noncommittal, "Then how did you find out?"

      Before you transfer, take off Yang Ming's jacket, Lao Yu's shirt, you will also take care of it afterwards."

    Wu You shrugged, "It's so smart, it's a pleasure to work with you."

    After finishing speaking, he asked An Wu Jiu's destination. After thinking for a moment, An Wujiu gave the address of a hospital. Wu You nodded and called out his name, "Vivian."

    [Good morning Xiaoyou. ]

    Wu You repeated what An Wujiu said about the hospital, "St. Georgia Hospital."

    [Ok, navigating for you now. ]

    The intelligent navigation system of the aircraft emits an electronic female voice with a natural and soft tone. The timbre preference of ordinary men for synthetic speech is often sweet type, or the aura of the royal sister, but this one is obviously different, not so much gentle, but more loving.

    Soon, a blue line immediately appeared in front of the windshield of the aircraft, showing intricate maps and navigation routes within 0.3 seconds.

    [Based on current air traffic conditions, the following two routes are recommended for you. ]

    One of the blue lines on the glass turns orange and the other turns pink.

    Wu You clicked on the pink route.

    [Received, navigation enabled, estimated time 19 minutes and 23 seconds. ]

    [Start flying, please be safe. ]

    The aircraft travels at an extremely fast speed along an air route invisible to the naked eye. Soon, An Wujiao, whose back was tightly pressed against the seat, saw them from the glass window away from the wilderness and into the city.

    The city did not deviate much from his recollections.

      The greasy walls are cast into shells, and the small windows are close to each other, like countless eyes that come together.

    It's frustrating.

    The male model of the adult advertisement holographic projection is as tall as the Philadelphia government building behind him, and the air medium causes his image to keep flashing, like an old TV with poor signal. He held a small jar of pink medicine in his hand, shook it, took another one himself, and then showed a fluttering look.

    In the advertisement, he stepped on the floor of the sewage flowing in the administrative square, and his head was higher than the slogan on the building - freedom, health, wealth.

    On the ground, all kinds of people pass between the legs of the male model, everyone is wearing different VR equipment, their eyes are not squint, their expressions are numb, and no one cares about the huge hanging above their heads. of projected genitalia.

    Among the numb people, there are also some hunched and scrawny people, young men and women, old people, and even children who do not look more than one meter four.

    "This is the most chaotic neighborhood in Philadelphia." Shen Ti held his face in his hands, with a sarcastic smile on his face, "I'm afraid the children here are born with poison."

    Wu You continued: "It is a lot, most of them are thrown in the waste street. After all, contraceptive products are expensive enough for them to buy ten small bags of abortion pills, and abortion will be arrested here, so They have no choice."

    Orphanages are packed like canned sardines.

    An Wujiu asked: "Didn't these people go to the altar?"

    "No, there are a lot of people like them." Wu You said, "It's just that they won't survive the first round."

    I don't know if it was because of the air, An Wujiu felt suffocated, he raised his head and looked up. The city's tall buildings plunge into the clouds, like the towers of Babel in Babylon.

    The route of the aircraft was adjusted upwards, An Wujiu saw a relatively not so high building, the roof of the building was a beautiful sky garden, the sun penetrated the clouds, and the rare roses were illuminated To shine like a ruby.

    The melodious sound of the violin could be heard in the garden, and men and women dancing with red wine glasses could be vaguely seen.

    Free, healthy, wealthy.

    An Wujiu sighed slightly and briefly, and looked away. His head hurts a little, like the sensation of the electrodes irritating the skin.

    [Destination reached. ]

    Fast.

    [The parking fee in this area is 50 USD/1 hour, whether to park…]

    Wu You interrupted: "Put us down, and then you drive to a place where you can park for free and wait."

    [Okay Xiaoyou. ]

    Shen Ti deliberately imitated Vivian's tone, "Okay Xiaoyou." As a result, Wu You almost got trapped in the aircraft by controlling the seat belt.

    When they came down, Wu You whispered to An Wujiu, "Why do you want to be with this kind of person?"

    Such a person?

    An Wujiu looked back after listening, Shen Ti stretched his arms like a cat, "Rich people area, hello."

    “He wants to follow me.” An Wujiu turned his head and said directly.

    St. Georgia Hospital is the best hospital in Philadelphia.

    According to An Wujiu's childhood memories, their family originally settled in Shanghai, but due to work reasons, it seems to be a Sino-US cooperation project, the father came to Philadelphia alone, and later, they The whole family moved here temporarily.

    Why didn't they go back afterwards?

    The memories of childhood and adolescence are very vague, and there is nothing wrong with it. He came to the door of the hospital with two other people. To screen patients for treatment, four uniformed security guards stood outside the hospital gate.

    An Wujiu raised his eyes, there are eight tiny cameras on the upper edge of the door.

    Soon he wondered why he was so sensitive to surveillance.

    "Please show your three-year net income and online banking statements." A white-gloved security guard reached out to stop them.

    "You need to see these..."

    Wu You turned around silently, rolled her eyes, and lowered her hat lower.

    An Wujiu said, "I didn't come to see a doctor, I just wanted to consult..."

    The security guard interrupted and repeated his previous words like a robot with a low level of interaction.

    "Please show your net income and online banking statement within three years."

    There is no other way, An Wujiu thought of the altar, he opened the panel and showed them the balance on it.

    "You still have more than 53,000 points? It's almost 600,000 US dollars." Wu You was a little shocked, "You don't win all the time, right?"

    An Wujiu pursed her lips as an answer.

    The security guard in front of him was finally no longer as inhumane as a robot. He waved his hand towards the hospital, "The left hand of entering the door is the consultation interface."

    An Wujiu nodded and walked into this hospital. It is clean, advanced, and orderly, which is very different from the neighborhood just now. Wu You didn't follow. He said he had to keep an eye on his aircraft, and walked alone to the street opposite the hospital.

    They found the consultation interface, a huge floating electronic screen, which displayed other hospitals under the same system, with rainbow logos and spiral DNA logos.

    In the middle is a prompt: [Please touch the relevant page for consultation].

    An Wujiu stretched out his hand and tried to click on the [patient inquiry] on the right of the center.

    But suddenly, his index finger stopped in mid-air.

    "What's wrong?" Shen Ti asked.

    An Wujiu turned his head, looked down at Shen Ti's hand, and made a strange request, "Can I borrow your gloves?"

    Shen Ti frowned, but let go.

    Is this his anti-reconnaissance habit?

    Seeing that he hesitated, An Wujiu thought he would be rejected.

     "Take off yourself." Shen Ti stretched out his hand towards him.

    I felt a little strange, but An Wugui couldn't say what was strange. But it would be better if Shen Ti was willing to borrow it. He nodded, his fingers grabbed a little leather glove in the gap between his fingertips and pulled it out, but he found that it was difficult to pull it off, so with both hands, starting from the wrist, peeled off the black leather glove bit by bit. down.

    He was cautious, as if tearing the skin of some kind of viper.

    After taking it off, An Wu Jiu was stunned.

    Shen Ti's hands were covered with bizarre and twisted purple-black patterns, like tattoos, but not exactly like tattoos. These patterns were intertwined and extended into his invisible cuffs.

    When touching it, An Wujiu realized that those vine-like lines were slightly raised, invisible to the naked eye, but obvious to the touch. In an instant, other pictures jumped out in front of his eyes, like a frame in a video.

    It is a picture of him being tightly entangled by many things like snake tails.

    An Wu Jiu felt a strong sense of suffocation.

    "Scared by my hand?"

    Shen Ti lowered his hand and said rarely without gagging, "That's why I never show it to others."
