At this moment, a familiar female voice interrupted their discussion.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZWBRvlbst
"Hey, isn't that Herowl? What a coincidence to meet here," she had a pair of slender female long legs, and a yellow short skirt just covering her buttocks with golden feathers, shining brightly in the sunlight.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW5u0cu4f9
Herowl looked towards the voice, and it was the well-known female anchor Canaria.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu1nbSnYZL
Canaria stopped by, looking at Herowl and Snowily with a curious expression in her eyes even though she didn't ask anything out loud about their relationship.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b3NrLDzPM
Herowl admired Canaria, and Snowily stood nervously beside him, stuttering anxiously, "Go...Canaria, hey, I..."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEDT82PagM
"Wow, it's the famous female anchor Canaria! I love watching your news reports!" Without waiting for the response, Snowily enthusiastically stepped forward to greet her as if she were a long-time fan, of course, this was just pretending.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAoyIplATY
Canaria looked at Snowily up and down, then at the nervous Herowl, seemingly thinking of something. "Thank you, what happened to you guys? Why are you all injured?"
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoVsTEHzCu
"It's nothing, I just fell last night, and I don't know why Snowily got injured either."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoozUSZWoP
After directly introducing Snowily to Canaria, Herowl explained the injuries, and Canaria responded casually, "So you're Miss Snowily, hello."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOd09TqLr5
"Yes, we're just friends," Herowl felt the need to clarify their relationship, as if afraid of being misunderstood.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmOYrnxHz0
"Haha, you don't have to tell me that. I'll go now, goodbye." Canaria was also considerate and didn't continue chatting to block the two.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0Ps35Eq1J
Unable to explain further, Herowl could only bid farewell politely, while Snowily maintained a polite smile and waved.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrq5qk5DmC
After Canaria left, she also respectfully saluted the passing poleace and excitedly linked arms with poleace for a photo, leaning her whole body towards them. The masked poleace stood upright, looking dignified and serious.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH3sOcn5QZ
Unlike Snowily, Canaria truly approved of poleace from the bottom of her heart, supporting their actions, which is why she reported the news with such dedication, just like Herowl, who has not changed his beliefs.After Canaria turned around, Snowily immediately dropped her polite smile and questioned Herowl, "You seem nervous, do you like her and are afraid she will misunderstand you?"
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUIDhLlFNX
Herowl was quite surprised that Snowily could see through his thoughts, and she added, "Not just me, she obviously also noticed, so she deliberately teased you just now, she has no interest in you at all."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHsWFZnrDn
"I know, she is a famous broadcaster, how could she be interested in someone like me, a small reporter..."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH62WkR2M0f
Snowily was straightforward and comforting, patting him on the shoulder and saying, "Don't be too self-deprecating, someone will eventually notice you."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hjZ6zeVN2
"Really... haha..."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveFGqDlmPl
With Snowily leading the way, they arrived at a market with shops on both sides, some bustling with customers while others were deserted. Herowl was curious about this situation, and Snowily explained that the citizens who were labeled as "Flyania invisible patients" by the government chose to support businesses with similar beliefs and understanding of the true situation.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdPVDCK04V
After hearing about this strange concept, Herowl questioned the divisiveness of this behavior and didn't understand the need for boycotts.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMhnCQ3OWj
"City 4 has always been so free, the money you earn is yours, why can't you decide how to spend it?" Snowily responded to Herowl's doubts with a question.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyjp85pIxp
While Herowl found the point valid upon further thought, he shook his head and sighed, "It seems too naive."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9goB0KVL8W
"Many things start from seemingly naive beginnings and progress step by step."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv6pKqEtTV
Stopping in front of a restaurant, Snowily continued to explain, "When you go in, you will see that The Birddies actually help each other out."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4Pg8To2yM
Herowl was confused about who the Birddies were. The Birddies were a term used to refer to those who knew the truth about the information tower explosion a year ago, reminding everyone that they lived in the same concrete forest, shared the same beliefs and goals, and should not easily give up.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmovwzRgtE
"Oh, then it's the big caterpillars, right?" Herowl accidentally blurted out poleace's term.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9E1WJl1hR
Snowily glared at Herowl, who quickly waved his hands in denial. "I've just heard it too much and subconsciously borrowed the term, I hate that nickname too, it makes everyone lose their sense of empathy."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwZN0zMu4Z
Snowily didn't pay much attention to the explanation, as she and all the Birddies knew why Mayor Pengury referred to them as big caterpillars. It was a form of brainwashing to make everyone distrust informed citizens and divide society.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHK9j9oSzO
"They only need obedient citizens who work hard to earn money, have three meals a day, and live in peace and contentment. When everyone is focused on their basic needs, they will have no time to pay attention to anything else unless their interests are impacted."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6faxEA1L16
This explanation left Herowl awkwardly smiling, "Yeah, I thought the same way..."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RI419BkQQ
"It's okay, we used to live like pigs in a confined life."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi9Kx0iw7H
Sensing the negative atmosphere, Herowl quickly changed the topic, "By the way, I plan to repay Mr. Petrelo and Mrs. Petrelo during the vacation. Do you want to join?"
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfqjpsi24q
"I actually had plans with them today, but they said they were busy and rescheduled for next week," Snowily said, revealing that she didn't intend to be alone with Herowl.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ3JIk7cgs
Seeing Snowily about to ignore the line and enter, Herowl hurriedly looked at the queue and stopped her.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGELBECoyi
"Don't worry, I have a reservation for this place," Herowl assured.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5kAlXAwTR
Once the two entered the restaurant, Snowily continued to explain The Birddies' beliefs, immersing Herowl in the atmosphere. Herowl noticed a sign posted in an inconspicuous place near the cashier, which was the symbol of evil in his understanding: two white clouds with blue wings.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM77dz2LakH
In the following days, Herowl met Snowily before work and personally experienced various information that seemed like fake news to him. As a journalist, Herowl made it clear that he wouldn't blindly believe these words and would maintain an objective perspective. 216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZqkWxfzg4
Snowily didn't push him, believing that the time for Herowl to believe had not yet come, and that every individual needed a trigger to awaken.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31g1sLzwNr
"Some things are just too absurd. It's ridiculous to think that the poleace, who are supposed to uphold the law, would kill citizens, let thugs roam freely, and incite chaos in society," Herowl explained his thoughts to Snowily, clearly not awakened enough after that night.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSInP2JTYoC
Talking about the regime, Snowily still had a helpless smirk, "Ha, absurd things, the more exaggerated, the better, best if it's so exaggerated that no one believes it."
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9BSyRJaDB
Not knowing how to respond, Herowl awkwardly thanked her, which left Snowily puzzled.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngFpTBgto1
"Thank you for showing me so many new things," Herowl said, even though he actually thanked Snowily for the events of that night. If she hadn't mentioned Flyania, he might not have tried to glide down. And, she wasn't obliged to explain these things to him repeatedly.
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK3PgOyu7r
Snowily also noticed his thoughts, "Seeing what you and I have experienced together, I just don't want you to live a clueless life. Aren't you supposed to help other citizens?"
216Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqJUjv6cHL
"Mm..."
