Midnight, Hanging Street
In terms of this planet's time, the real midnight should be 15 o'clock, after all, a day here lasts 30 hours.
However, 12 o'clock is still the time when normal people rest.
Yet on Hanging Street, the colorful neon signboards almost fill the entire street.
The night is more dangerous than the day.
Rainy Night with a Knife and No Umbrella just stepped out of the capsule hotel when he encountered a drug vendor quietly injecting himself, a forced shopping virtual advertisement, and a fanatic religious figure loudly preaching the 'AI Blasphemy Theory.'
The voice of the latter had an unimaginable infectiousness.
Unlike the previous two, this one hit him almost without any time to react, leaving him with an 'AI aversion' state, causing him to instinctively feel discomfort around artificial intelligence.
"Damn it."
Even with the staunch will of this early-game bigwig, he couldn't help but curse.
