“其叔父也曾是维特兰的参议员,外祖父曾经做过联邦副总统,整个家族在联邦都具有很高的影响力,能够有效的利用自己的影响力,推动联邦通过有利于维特兰的法案。 In this campaign, he declared after the reappointment, will promote the federation regarding the rescue of vagrant child,

gazes on the commercial building to broadcast late at night the screen of news, this screen does not have the sound, and is very far from the ground, the audience can only the captions on reading screen through the words that understand the host. 何奥注视着商厦上播放深夜新闻的屏幕,这个屏幕并没有声音,并且也距离地面很远,观众只能通过阅读屏幕上的字幕来理解主持人的话语。 When he is gazing at this screen, the front taxi driver also looked at this screen, but the driver took back the vision quickly, shown absolutely no concern continues to drive. 而在他注视着这个屏幕的时候,前方的出租车司机也瞄了一眼这个屏幕,但司机很快就收回了目光,毫不关心的继续开车。 He Ao looks at the driver tranquil expression by the rear view mirror, the slow sound said, recently probably many people were caring about the midterm election.” 何奥透过后视镜看着司机平静的表情,缓声道,“最近好像很多人都在关心中期选举。” Election, is this.” “选举嘛,都是这样的。” The driver hand places on the steering wheel, looks at the front to extend to the night end path, after all only then at this time, appeared us also is very probably important.” 司机手放在方向盘上,看着前方延伸到黑夜尽头的道路,“毕竟只有在这个时候,才显得我们好像也很重要。” Senator you have person who wants to vote?” “参议员你有想投票的人吗?” He Ao by the chair, asked in a soft voice. 何奥靠在椅子上,轻声问道。 No, I many years had not voted,” “没有,我已经好多年没去投票了,” The driver shrugs, his hand patted the steering wheel, sighed, „ young time, I always thought that I can select an outstanding leader, afterward I gradually discovered, electing anyone to be the same, my life and had no change, behind I was disinclined to elect, the final result was actually in any case same. 司机耸耸肩,他的手拍了拍方向盘,叹了口气,“年轻的时候,我总觉得我能选出一个优秀的领袖,后来我慢慢发现,选谁都是一样的,我的生活并没有什么变化,后面我就懒得去选了,反正最终的结果其实是一样的。 These candidate each can stand straight, very competent reliable appearance of performance, was selected to become some congressman by God probably, or becomes the mayor, but God will never elect the person, they were selected, but was selected by the financial group.” “这些候选人每个都站得直直的,表现的很能干可靠的样子,好像是被上帝选中要成为某个议员,或者成为市长,但是上帝从不会选人,他们是被选中的,只不过是被财团选中的。” The driver moves the steering wheel, turns toward right the side path the taxi, chooses congressman matter, actually looks is not you are able, is capable, but looked your popularity is high enough, is rich, pays cannot pay the expense of propaganda.” 司机拨动方向盘,将出租车拐向右边的道路,“选议员这种事,其实看的不是你多有能力,多有才干,而是看你知名度够不够高,有没有钱,付不付得起宣传的费用。” The driver looks to out of the window poster, pouts, „, this time is these in the person who elects the senator is richest,” 司机看向窗外尼德的海报,努了努嘴,“诺,这个就是这一次选参议员的人里最有钱的,” He by the driver seat, the vehicles speeds along under the neon light, 他靠在驾驶座上,车辆在霓虹灯下飞驰, „ But where do these money come? Federal law said, can provide the financial support through the small contribution of supporter to the campaign person, but these advertisements, these videos, these buy the money of anchor and television station, are how many must come through the small contribution of ordinary supporter? “但是这些钱从哪里来?联邦法律里说,可以通过支持者的小额捐献给竞选人提供资金支持,但是这些广告,这些视频,还有那些收买名嘴和电视台的钱,有多少是通过普通支持者的小额捐献得来的? Does not know whether you is willing to donate money to these politicians, supplies them indulge in dissipation to live. “不知道伱是否愿意捐钱给这些政客,供给他们花天酒地的生活。 I do not want in any case, these money that I make now, pay in full the house rent, but also ends the credit card by stages, but also ends the studies loan, almost did not remain anything, I wanted to give them to donate money, did not have money to contribute.” “反正我是不愿意的,我现在挣的这些钱,交完房租,还完信用卡分期,还完学业贷款,几乎就不剩什么了,我想要给他们捐钱,都没有钱去捐。” Speaking of this, the driver smiled one, he looked at around one splendid commercial building, „ these campaign people need the advertisement, needs to propagandize, needs to hire the person to organize the speech to them, these need to spend, these money will not live baseless, cannot attain from our these poor voter hands, only then looks for the financial group. 说到这,司机笑了一声,他看了一眼周围富丽堂皇的商厦,“这些竞选人需要广告,需要宣传,需要雇佣人给他们组织演讲,这些都需要花钱,这些钱不会凭空生出来,从我们这些穷选民手里拿不到,就只有去找财团。 Took others money, must handle matters to others, therefore these so-called campaign commitments, listen to be good, on their mouths was saying campaigns for us, in fact campaigns for he himself, although we in the hand are grasping the ballot, but in fact we did not decide that they can elect. “拿了人家的钱,就要给人家办事,所以那些所谓的竞选承诺,听听就好了,他们嘴上说着为我们竞选,实际上是为他自己竞选,我们虽然手里握着选票,但是实际上我们并不决定他们能不能选上。 Financial group was deciding money cast, to anyone, who making have many exposures, whom making be seen by more people, the well-known person, is certainly easier to be elected. “财团才决定着把钱投,给谁,让谁拥有更多的曝光,让谁被更多的人看见,知名度高的人,当然更容易被选上。 However these are not willing with the financial group cooperation, not the amenable financial group will, the financial group not to give them money, even sends people to destroy their speeches, even if they really want to handle anything , no one can see them, they naturally do not have the ballot, finally vanishes in the boundless huge crowd. “而那些不愿意和财团合作的,不顺从财团意志的,财团就不给他们钱,甚至派人去破坏他们的演讲,哪怕他们真的想要做些什么事情,也没有人能看见他们,他们自然也没有选票,最终消失在茫茫人海中。 Therefore regarding these campaign people, decided that who can the high-rank key exist is not grasping us of ballot, but is grasping the financial group of fund. “所以对于这些竞选人来说,决定谁能上位的关键存在并不是掌握着选票的我们,而是掌握着资金的财团。 These campaigners to these will only decide the person who truly their destiny is responsible, regardless of they said give an exaggerated account of things, when campaign commitment happy, the method of person who deceives our these not to have money temporarily. “这些竞选者只会对那些真正决定他们命运的人负责,所以无论他们说的多天花乱坠,竞选时的承诺有多美好,都不过是暂时欺骗咱们这些没钱的人的手段罢了。 Once they really elected, they to will only give them to spend the financial group exchange of gifts between friends of massive wealth initially.” “一旦他们真的选上了,他们只会对当初给他们花了大量钱财的财团投桃报李。” The front street light tarnish, the bright yellow taxi submerges in the dim light of night gradually, „ federation is this, that night news that even if just you read, that news will usually not appear on just that type of lively commercial circle screen. 前方的路灯渐渐变暗,明黄的出租车没入夜色中,“联邦就是这样的,哪怕是刚刚你看的那个深夜新闻,那个新闻平时根本不会出现在刚刚那种繁华的商圈屏幕上。 Words that host spoke, outwardly although on displays probably is very neutral, but actually in Coigny virtue, disparages other campaign people, looked is one receives money.” “那个主持人说的话,虽然明面上表现的好像很中立,但是其实都是在夸尼德,贬低其他竞选人,一看就又是一个收了钱的。” Many that you understand probably.” “你好像了解的很多。” He Ao asked in a soft voice. 何奥轻声问道。 I had attended the university before,” taxi driver fishes out cigarette, then he hesitant, asked in a soft voice, minded that I did smoke?” “我以前读过大学,”出租车司机摸出一支烟来,然后他犹豫了一下,轻声问道,“介意我抽烟吗?” Does as you please.” “请便。” He Ao nods. 何奥点点头。 I went to school before, is the student association vice-president, at that time I have also thought must be the politician,” “我以前上学的时候,是学生会副主席,当时我也想过要去当政客,” The driver opened the driving window, lit the smoke, raises along with the dim smog, more many that his slow sound said, „ afterward I contacted, discovery even more does not have money, no one supports, without the popularity, few will throw to my ticket. 司机打开了驾驶窗,点燃了烟,伴随着朦胧的烟雾升起,他缓声道,“后来我接触的越多,越发的发现没有钱,没有人支持,没有知名度,几乎没有人会投给我票。 I do not even sufficiently collect money that spoke for the first time, from the beginning I want to find the person who these supported me to run to look to collect some money, then I could not make a connection with their telephones. “我甚至连第一次演讲的钱都凑不够,一开始我想找那些支持我参选的人看能不能凑一些钱,然后我就打不通他们的电话了。 I spent for several years, tried to find out that was clear inside rule, looks these financial groups, factory, seeks the financial support, I do not have the qualifications, does not have the background, others almost looked that does not look at my one eyes. “我花了好几年,摸索清楚了里面的规则,去找那些财团,工厂,寻求资金支持,我没有资历,也没有背景,人家几乎看都不看我一眼。 Afterward I finally found wanted investment our these unknown rookies campaign person the factory, this factory lots of investments look like our not being worth a red cent rookies, I am very clear they not to appreciate me, but casts a net broadly, gives a try to try one's luck. “后来我终于找到了一家愿意‘投资’我们这些名不见经传的菜鸟‘竞选人’的工厂,这家工厂大量的投资像我们这种一文不值的菜鸟,我很清楚他们并不欣赏我,只是广撒网,试试看能不能碰运气。 „The request of this factory was very pure, took their money, must help them handle matters.” “这个工厂的要求很纯粹,拿了他们的钱,就要帮他们办事。” The driver smoked cigarette, „ my parents are the ordinary workers, I know that the factory environment bad, with their working strengths, I wants to campaign for from the beginning, is the hope can by own strength, promoting the factory to change , to promote person the living condition of like my parents. 司机吸了一口烟,“我父母都是普通工人,我知道工厂环境的糟糕,和他们的工作强度,我一开始想要竞选,就是希望能靠自己的力量,推动工厂改变,提升像我父母一样的人的生活条件。 But behind that factory financial group requests me, if campaigns for successfully, must help them promote to reduce the bill of wages , to promote to further relax the bill of factory environment limit, hinders these to promote the bill of minimum wage to carry out in the parliament. “但是那个工厂背后的财团要求我,如果竞选成功,就要帮他们推动降低工资的法案,推动进一步放宽工厂环境限制的法案,阻碍那些提升最低工资的法案在议会里推行。 Although had expected, but heard this request at that time, I gawked was very long.” “虽然早就有所预料,但是当时听到这种要求,我还是愣了很久。” The driver holds in the mouth the smoke on the mouth, the cold air/Qi and is involved from the glass at night simultaneously, side was I asked for a long time, the opportunity of fund investment having, side was my own ideal and integrity.” 司机把烟叼在嘴上,冷气和黑夜同时从车窗外卷入,“一边是我求了好久,才获得的资金投资的机会,一边是我自己的理想和操守。” He deeply smokes cigarette, takes down from the mouth the smoke, extends out of the window, „ afterward I think, goes to him, this matter who likes doing who does. 他深吸一口烟,把烟从嘴上取下,伸到窗外,“后来我想,去他么的,这种事谁爱干谁干吧。 I left that factory, ended all dreams.” “我离开了那个工厂,结束了所有的梦想。” The wind that sweeps across has blown the cigarette butt, bringing the flame to fly into the curtain of night, at that moment I know, this world I cannot change, therefore I looked for a work, starts out rented a car, although taxi company and factory same bastard, but at least, when drives after the wind, I am free.” 席卷的风刮过烟头,带着火光飞入夜幕,“那一刻我就知道,这个世界我改变不了,于是我就找了个工作,来开出租车了,虽然出租车公司和工厂一样的混蛋,但是至少,在开车经过风中的时候,我是自由的。” The cigarette of fingertip burnt the terminal, the driver received the cigarette, somewhat was for a while disappointed, he looked at the expression that He Ao calmly listened respectfully to through the rear view mirror, 指尖的烟卷燃到了末端,司机收起了烟卷,一时有些怅然,他通过后视镜看了一眼何奥静静聆听的表情, Sorry, making you listen to me to talk about so many things.” “抱歉,让你听我讲了这么多事情。” All right,” He Ao shows a smile, I also very like listening to these things, my mother is a writer, in childhood she often led me to go travelling, at every stop, she will take taxi, exchanges with the taxi driver, listening to the driver to tell the different stories, un “没事,”何奥露出一个微笑,“我还挺喜欢听这些事情的,我母亲是一个作家,小时候她经常带我出去旅行,每到一个地方,她就会打车,和出租车司机交流,听司机讲述不同的故事,嗯・・・・・・” He Ao tone slightly, your story, in I have listened to all stories, is the legend.” 何奥的语气稍顿了一下,“不过你的故事,在我听过的所有故事中,也算是传奇的了。” Right?” “是吗?” The taxi driver smiled one, actually campaigns for person industry is not mysterious, after crossing that threshold, the lots and other industries are similar, your mother sounds like a very interesting person, the story that she writes is very certainly appealing.” 出租车司机笑了一声,“其实竞选人这个行业也没有那么神秘,越过了那个门槛之后,很多东西和其他的行业差不多,你母亲听起来是一个很有趣的人,她写的故事一定很吸引人吧。” Yes,” “是啊,” He Ao looks to out of the window, he opened ultra recalled, in the invisible night, that was similar to the train of thought spread that the tidal current surged generally to enter his sensation, she reluctantly was a bestseller writer, mosts of the time, her thought some powerful and unconstrained styles, naturally, when I made mistakes, she equally was also ominous with other mothers.” 何奥看向窗外,他开启了超忆,在无形的黑夜中,那如同潮流一般涌动的思绪蔓延进入他的感知,“她勉强算是一个畅销书作家,大部分时候,她的思维都有些天马行空,当然,在我犯错的时候,她也和其他的母亲一样凶。” In the most deep place of this city, as if has some undercurrent to surge, this actually the first time is not He Ao felt this undercurrent, before he in seeking for Thies's beforehand laboratory position , the feeling has been one time. 在这座城市的最深处,似乎有某种暗潮在涌动,这其实并不是何奥第一次感受到这暗潮,之前他在寻找杰斯之前的实验室位置所在的时候,就感受到过一次。 But this time, in the tidal current that this surges, He Ao will feel some to contact shortly afterward familiar aura. 但这一次,在这涌动的潮流中,何奥感受到了一些才接触过不久的熟悉的气息。 „The mothers in this world are the same, my mother is also,” “这世上的母亲都是一样的,我母亲也是,” The driver looked at He Ao facial features through the rear view mirror, he looks at the attachment and recollection on He Ao cheeks, realized oneself as if asked a not good issue, he has not continued to go into seriously again in this issue, but steps the accelerator, then asked that 司机通过后视镜看了一眼何奥的面容,他看着何奥脸颊上的眷恋和回忆,意识到自己似乎提了一个不太好的问题,他并没有再继续在这个问题上深究下去,而是踩住油门,转而问道, „The end point that you locate seems like an abandoned Industrial Building, moreover is the artificial urgent list, did you such late in the past, what matter have?” “你定位的终点好像是一个废弃的工业大厦,而且是人工加急单,你这么晚过去,是有什么事吗?” I have a friend to be thereby.” “我有一个朋友在那附近。” He Ao takes back the vision, in a soft voice reply. 何奥收回目光,轻声回复。 He lifts wristband, looked at content on a wristband. 他抬起手环,看了一眼手环上的内容。 On wristband at this moment in the information interface, above is his chat record. 手环上此刻正在信息界面,上面是海希和他的聊天记录。 Front several chatted the record is very normal, told him, she had arrived at Plant, immediately must see that old friend. 前面的几个聊天记录都很正常,海希告诉他,她已经到了普兰特了,马上就要见那个‘老朋友’了。 He Ao inquired as usual whether she needs to help, but was rejected by her as before. 何奥照例询问了一下她是否需要帮助,不过依旧被她拒绝了。 [ We were many year of friends, meeting, trading information was very normal, this matter absolute safety, does not need to be worried, 1 : 00 am, we saw in Rotter block, when the time comes I gave you data chip.] [我们都是很多年的朋友了,见一次面,交易一下情报很正常,这个事情绝对安全,不必担心,凌晨 1 点,我们在扎罗特街区见,到时候我把数据芯片给你。] This is original words. 这是海希的原话。 At that time He Ao has tidied up the room, he left the home immediately, went to the Plant area. 那时候何奥已经收拾完了屋子,他随即离开了家,前往了普兰特区。 Then next news, after ten minutes.
