Chapter 683: Managing Cultural Conflicts Requires Serious Measures

As time goes by, each player regretfully withdraws, and this e-sports gradually enters a key stage where a few heavyweight players compete for the championship.

Now the contestants in the second arena are two people we are very familiar with: Iori Yagami and Kyo Kusanagi.

Please don't complain about the players, please!

The two old enemies, who would inevitably break out into a war whenever they met, would now appear on such a platform, using an e-sports game to decide the outcome. This is really shocking, and only the cruel ones can The Space-Time Management Bureau can make this happen. Now, the game has begun, but Kusanagi Kyo and Iori Yagami have not sat down yet. Instead, they are looking at each other across the table, as if they plan to overpower each other before starting.

"Hmph, today is destined to be your day of defeat. Come on, I can give you three moves!" This was Kusanagi Kyo's speech with a high chance of winning.

Iori Yagami showed no sign of weakness: "Boring, I'll give you three moves, you take action!"

"I can stand still and let you hit me."

"Use cheating to get infinite anger! I won't resist!"

"If you have any super kills, just use them! Even if I move, I lose!"

"you first!"

"Let you go first!"

I watched with tears in my eyes below: Yagami chose Kusanagi Kyo, and Kusanagi Kyo chose Yagami-an. What kind of trouble are you two going to make?

"time over!"

audience:"……"

Get off here you two bastards!

The game was going on in this miserable atmosphere, and what was the final result... Well, anyway, I remember it was like this:

The Immortal of the human race defeated the humans of the trolls, and the tribe was extremely frustrated because the alliance suffered a defeat. Nanagasha used Yagami Temple to defeat Nanagasha of Kusanagi Kyo. Shichikasha was defeated by Nanagasha and defeated it with Kusanagi Kyo in the resurrection game. In the second game, the New Eden human player used Protos to teach the humans under the control of the Protos player. After the Protos player was defeated by the Protos opponent, the Protos audience became excited. , so in the second round, he worked hard and defeated the human players with humans...

In the second half of the development, it was like this: the Troll players used the Protos to defeat the Zerg of Nanagasha, Kyo Kusanagi used Kyo Kusanagi to defeat Kyo Kusanagi of Iori Yagami, and the night elves' orcs were defeated by the night elves. After Chris defeated Chris, Chris entered the finals. After Leanna's Leanna was defeated by Leanna, Kagura Chizuru entered the finals. Nikaidou Benimaru's dizzy unfortunately lost to dizzy. The audience outside the stadium Divided into several groups, the tribe was shouting for the alliance, the alliance was shouting for the tribe, humans were planning to kill humans, Protos remained silent, the fighters in the King of Fighters world shouted long live El, and the Stormwind delegation began to wave Lianna flag, Tex Finlay was taken down from it in the middle of the game. It was said to be a self-protective shock caused by severe mental disorder, but Sarah Kerrigan completed it with her amazing perseverance. In the second half of the live broadcast, Zeratul led a group of Protos elders to distribute flyers outside the arena calling on people to regain calm. However, one of the elders suddenly shouted that he would leave for the sake of a blue and clean world, which led to his action. It didn't go well. Shadow City finally dispatched a large number of urban management to suppress the enthusiastic King of Fighters fighters, because they announced that they would protest for one day as long as the Mother Ship was weakened. Sandora ate all the food stalls outside the arena during the game. , her shallow eyes are drawing mosquito coils. I can’t imagine what strange associations today’s inspiration will bring to her, but I’m afraid a more ferocious worldview destroyer has been activated.

As for me, as you can see, I haven't sorted out who won the game just now...

But one thing is for sure, if I continue to be so serious, I will lose.

Well, should we be glad that there is no bubble participating in this game?

"Wow, this is delicious!" The blond girl walking beside was holding a large handful of strange-shaped barbecue in her hand, and in the other hand was a woven bag that looked like it could hold thirty to fifty kilograms of rice. She was eating it now. His mouth was full of oil, "Ajun, would you like to try this?"

Turning my head to look at Shandora's bright sea-blue eyes flashing with a heart-stopping brilliance, I fought hard to suppress the urge to be killed by cuteness in my heart, and turned my head hard: "I'm not hungry."

You must not forget the painful memories that you brought to yourself after you accidentally ignored this girl Sandora's recipe just now.

What can Sandora eat? This is as stupid a question as what Sandora can't eat. Theoretically speaking, as long as the symbols appear on the periodic table, anything you pick out can fit into Her Majesty the Queen's stomach. This girl has a big mouth. With one card, you can eat directly from hydrogen to uuo, and then turn around and eat it in random combinations. But I just forgot about this common sense question. When Shandora enthusiastically recommended a barbecue to me, I was moved. This girl's big shining eyes were confusing...

How should I put it? The barbecue in Shandora's hand reminded me of the high-energy dishes that the other party once grandly launched. They all have such incredible ingredients and have such shocking effects. If dropped on the ground, they can burn an egg-sized dish. hole.

I sigh again that the world is so wonderful. There are so many weird species in the multiverse. How do you think they eat this kind of thing?

The assembly hall was as crowded as ever, but the situation around today was obviously more orderly than in the past two days. After the first two days of problems caused by inexperience, the commanders of Shadow City and various The world's coordinators have gradually mastered the tricks of organizing such large-scale events, at least the tricks of avoiding certain situations. Under the guidance of those guides who have gradually gained experience, the order during the carnival has become more and more satisfactory. .

After spending most of the day walking around with the two girls, we visited several places of interest in the morning. Although it was called "inspecting the venue for a private visit", to be honest, we were really clean this morning. played.

Unknowingly, we have gradually arrived at the edge of the assembly venue, entering the intersection with the inner city of Shadow City. My interest in sightseeing is far from extinguished, but I have already been somewhat discouraged: those weird things at the carnival Celebrations are indeed interesting, but you have to allow people to have moments of aesthetic fatigue. We are not like Qian Qian, who always has maximum energy. After wandering around all morning, it’s time to take a rest.

So after I asked Sandora, who was about to feel hungry again, to accompany Qianqian to wander around the food streets of various realms, I left the meeting place alone and walked into the Shadow City, planning to go to Sylvia's shop first to check out the food. No snacks or anything like that.

Ten minutes later.

"I should say, I really met you here..."

In Sylvia's small shop, I looked at the red and white miko sitting in front of me by the window, making tea with the tea set she brought with her, tasting the desserts in the shop and basking in the sun, and I completely resigned myself to my fate. The ground sighed.

"Ah, don't be so serious. Today's patrol is over anyway."

Reimu, who had finished his morning work, had already entered tea drinking mode. Even when he spoke, he had a soft and lazy tone. Although I was sure that this guy was here before the patrol time ended, but looking at the other person's expression of enjoying the sun Looks like, well, forget it, I hope that Lingmeng will be disciplined, I might as well hope that Dingdang doesn't fail the exam.

Showing an expression of complete indifference towards the other party, I shrugged and waited calmly for Sylvia to bring the coffee: We are different from Reimu, a guy who openly makes tea in other people's shops!

"It's already the third day since the carnival started."

After a moment of silence, Lingmeng suddenly said something faintly.

"Then it's been the tenth day since I've been here."

"Um, want to go home?" I looked at the one hundred thousand yuan in front of me with some surprise... Lingmeng's sudden sigh made people a little confused. Could it be that she had accumulated great moral integrity skills in the past few days and finally remembered that she was still a blogger? The boss lady of Rei Shrine?

"Suck yo yo~~" The girl held up the teacup and sipped the steaming tea inside, while the huge bow on the back of her head swayed, "How should I put it, I'm a little worried."

"If the miko of Hakurei Shrine and the strongest guardian monster of Gensokyo are not here, how long can those guys stay peaceful?"

"It shouldn't be that bad, right? Although the monsters seem to have their own personalities, they have lived in peace for so many years. They should be more or less accustomed to peaceful days."

"You really don't look like a monarch, you are too optimistic," even the unscrupulous Reimu pointed out this point to the point, "It's good to think about things for the best, but you should really worry a little bit about things over there. It's not easy for monsters to live in peace, and there are no monsters that don't attack humans. If they knew that Zi and I were not at home, they would definitely become commotion."

"It's not in line with your character to worry about this."

"Suck yo yo~~Of course I want to sleep peacefully first, but if there is a big mess in Gensokyo, I will also have a headache. The fox was so seriously injured. Although it doesn't look like it was caused by a monster, it still feels like it happened. It looks like something like that, suck~~ It’s not that I don’t believe what the prophet said, but if I can go back as soon as possible to check the situation, it will make Zi feel more at ease. Then I can completely relax and have a good cup of tea.”

Sure enough, after all, I have been annoyed by Yakumo Purple these past few days, so I am complaining here, right? !

“Sa, but having said that, it’s really peaceful now——”

Lingmeng held up the tea cup in front of him, letting the heat inside steam on his face, and sighed with enjoyment, "Want to drink tea? 20% off~~"

You might as well package it up and sell it on the shelves.

No, this girl has already packaged herself up for sale!

How should I put it? You should probably wonder if a certain Kohaku's physique that attracts mutations is consistent with his own physique that attracts trouble. Hakurei Reimu, who had just had a half-day free, had just finished lamenting that the world is really peaceful, and there was a vague feeling. The commotion of about 10 years ago spread from afar.

From the sound, it seemed to be from a nearby shopping street.

"Ah, have we started arguing again?"

Sylvia held a plate of chocolate pastries, slowly turned her head to look out the door of the store, and muttered something quite accustomed to it.

"Starting to quarrel again?" I glanced at the other party in surprise, "Has anyone been having sex here recently?"

"It's not ***," Reimu Hakurei put down the tea cup in her hand dejectedly, "It's just two vendors from different worlds who have been noisy at this time all day long because of some customs. Ah, what a bad luck, as usual. Just ignore it, but you are staring at me today."

What this guy means is that she has known for a long time that someone is causing trouble on the shopping street and still ignores it every day, right? I said that although I know that you are used to being lazy, at least be told in front of your current boss, okay?

Worried about the possibility of someone having sex during the carnival, I dragged Reimu, who looked reluctant, to the shopping street. There were already many people gathering in the direction of the noise, from all over the world. There were people there, but what was a relief was that although it was noisy and lively inside, there seemed to be no sign of a fight: otherwise the people from the neighborhood committee would have come out by this time.

When they arrived at the scene, Reimu finally showed a serious look. He took out the urban management armband from his pocket and put it on the wide sleeves of the miko uniform. The girl waved the coin bundle with one hand and a loudspeaker with the other and started. He yelled: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! The city management is coming! Those guys who are causing trouble, blocking traffic, affecting the construction of spiritual civilization in the shadow city, and interfering with the imperialist harmonious society were found to have been deducted five points once and found to have had their business license revoked twice and found to have been forcibly deported to the original world three times. Another big note. For more details, please refer to Chapter 3, Article 14 of the Shadow City Public Security Management Punishment Regulations. Get out of the way—I’ll take a breath first.”

Lingmeng's embarrassing voice was so effective that the onlookers on the third floor and the third floor immediately dispersed. It seemed that the name of the God of Urban Management had spread among these idle people.

After the crowd dispersed, the two parties involved in the quarrel were exposed in front of us.

Two middle-aged people wearing obviously different styles of otherworldly clothes, one wearing a wide robe with big sleeves, and the other wearing a tight-fitting leather suit. Although it is not clear what the original identity of this kind of dress is in their world, but from behind them, It can be seen from the small stall that these should be two "traveling merchants from other worlds" who temporarily set up stalls in the Shadow City. With the amazing business opportunities during the carnivals of all worlds, there are many such businessmen who temporarily change careers to engage in small business. .

The other party was a little stunned at the moment. Obviously, the drastic changes in the surrounding environment had not allowed them to recover from the heated argument. However, when they saw Reimu, the two of them reacted immediately, and then shouted loudly in unison. Exclaiming: "Oh my God! The red and white devil!"

A certain witch immediately became angry: "Your license will be revoked!"

I pushed Reimu back and stepped forward to ask the reason for the quarrel between the two. The answer made me laugh or cry: it was because of the color of the other person's clothes.

"Yellow stripes on a blue background are the symbol of a cultist! Even in the Holy City, as a monk, I cannot turn a blind eye to such blatant blasphemy!"

"You talk nonsense! Your robe with a black background and red edges and white emblems is obviously the prison uniform of a death row prisoner! I would rather die than go out on the street wearing something like that!"

"You # ¥ # cultist!"

"You should be sent to the gallows, damn ¥ # ! ¥!"

I was in a cold sweat listening to it. After doing it for a long time, it turned out to be this kind of thing again.

Yes, this is not the first time that riots have occurred due to cultural conflicts.

Shadow City is now the Capital of All Realms, also known as the Holy Capital. Visitors from God knows how many worlds and civilizations have gathered here. The dogma they believe in has already made Paopao cry and call his mother and act cute. , so many cultural systems are mixed together, and it is natural that there are places where cultural beliefs conflict with each other. A large part of the various riots that occurred in the Shadow City during the Carnival were also caused by this reason.

In fact, Shadow City has always had relevant regulations to mediate or suppress cultural conflicts between members of various ethnic groups, such as dividing areas between two ethnic groups with acute conflicts, and persuading minor conflicts.

But how can I put it? After all, there are many birds from whichever forest they come from. A loose civilian organization like Hongjie cannot be as orderly as the various tribes of the imperial servant army. Disputes like today are still unavoidable: even if the parties involved interfere There is no fight over local regulations yet.

"In other words, you can't stand the other party's clothing that offends the taboos of your own culture, right?"

I rubbed my forehead and asked thoughtfully. The two people in front of me nodded repeatedly: "We also know that there are rules, but this guy keeps wandering around in front of us, and we are really angry!"

"Well, it's not appropriate to chase one of you to another neighborhood just for such a case, and there are too many similar things. I have to find a way to solve it once and for all..." I thought about it and expressed my thoughts. "In other words, do you think the other party should respect their own culture?"

Nod nod.

"Then I agree with your insistence on your own culture."

The other party suddenly showed an overjoyed expression. Although it seemed that they did not recognize that the person in front of them was the supreme ruler of this place, a person who could make even the gods of urban management obey must be a high official - this was the judgment of the two of them. Since the senior officials have spoken, there must be no problem with "protecting my rights"!

"But," seeing the change in the expression on the other person's face, I changed the topic, "Of course you can ask others to follow your own cultural traditions, but in contrast, you must also be respectful and at least know other people's cultural traditions. This There shouldn’t be any objections, right?”

The two looked at each other inexplicably, but nodded: "That seems to be the case."

"Hey, why do I think this is a bit contradictory?"

Lingmen secretly tugged on my sleeve and murmured in a low voice, but I didn't answer her. Instead, I said to the two people in front of me with a smile on my face: "Okay, this is what you said, you must first master other people's opinions." Only with cultural traditions can we be qualified to be respected by others.”

The two of them were obviously a little confused, but my words didn't give them any time to refute or think seriously, and in the face of this theory that sounded very reasonable, the two of them finally nodded.

"Okay, let's take a look at this thing first."

I nodded with satisfaction and took out two large piles of things from my carry-on space.

Two tons of printing paper were slammed onto the ground, causing the entire ground to shake like a mountain falling. The two middle-aged men who had been busy arguing were dumbfounded.

"This is a summary of the cultural and traditional information of all races currently participating in the carnival. Of course, these are the catalog parts. You can look at it first. Tomorrow I will send two transport planes to airdrop the remaining information to you, about twenty or thirty tons. Well, it’s all detailed information, and at the end there are about forty-two tons of attachments, all pictures and the like. According to normal logic, if you want others to abide by your beliefs, you must first understand other people’s cultures, and respect is mutual. ...Well, where do you want to start reading first? I still have half a ton of brief history here and more than three tons of collections of local customs... Uh, who is that? Reimu, contact the medical center. There are two people here who need to be rescued. .”

There was no response from the side. When I turned around, I found a certain Hongbai looking blankly at the mountain of copywriting and the paper falling like snowflakes on it. After a long time, he looked at this side with admiration: "You win, it turns out. It can still be like this!”

"This will be the rule from now on. If anyone doesn't abide by the cultural management regulations of Shadow City and quarrels over trivial matters, then they will have to carry this thing!"
