-You don’t believe in politics, religion, science, what do you believe in

-Sex and death

I remembered the sentence of Mr. Lai Shengchuan I read earlier this year, "The only thing a person knows that will happen in a lifetime is death."

Probably because of this, Woody would believe in death. As for sex, it is the most primitive instinctive impulse of human beings or living bodies. I think it can prove whether two people are compatible, in all aspects.

In "Fools in Science City", in the world two hundred years later, even the most basic impulse is satisfied by machines. What is the point of the heroine having the title of Doctor of Oral Sex? It feels a bit ironic here. If you think about it, if the world really becomes like that one day, everyone will be very empty. After all, everything can be satisfied with some high-tech products. So what should we pursue? This is probably the reason why underground organizations will appear in that world.

I don't know if their revolution succeeded in the end, and what happened to the flattened nose piece. The kiss at the end may show something, Miles finally brought that kind of free, wild and primitive impulse into the new world.
