Chapter 37 - It's disgusting

"I'm Brandon, we were told that we cannot enter the city," Brandon said.

Not understanding why these people were not allowed in, the mayor turned his questioning gaze to the bald man.

"Sir, these people are well armed, so they can do harm, I didn't want to take responsibility for that," John replied.

Frowning, the Mayor gave John a reproachful look, and then spoke to Brandon with a smile.

"Friends, this is just a small misunderstanding, of course, you can visit our pearl and use all the services that are used by our city, after we use the services of our city, come to the mayor's office, there we will more detailed our cooperation."

After that, he turned his attention to Nate.

"Dear, who are you?" Mayor asked.

"I'm looking for my son. He was kidnapped. Nate answered.

"Well, McDonagh? Diamond City security will investigate this? What about the rest of the missing people statements that they ignore. "Piper suddenly intervened.

"Don't listen to her. Unfortunately, our security service is not able to investigate every case, but we can help you, I'm sure. In Diamond City, provide any service. Undoubtedly, someone from our worthy townspeople will be able to give time and help you. The Mayor replied.

Nate asked hopefully. "As the mayor of this beautiful city, you probably know everyone. Who could help me? "

"Mmm… We have several detective agencies in town. The Valentine Detective Agency will help you with this thinking. And now I have to take my leave, I am a very busy person. Enjoy your stay in our city! "McDonagh says.

Piper breaks into the conversation again. "This is a scandal! Diamond City Security Can't Get People? I demand the truth, McDonagh! For what reason does no one ever investigate a kidnapping? "

Angry, he points his finger at her and speaks loudly. "Enough with me, Piper. From now on I will not take my eyes off you and your little sister "

After his words, he blinked and headed inside the stadium.

Piper sighed and started talking while looking at Nate.

"Hmm, a personal greeting from the Mayor of Diamond City himself. Do you feel the honor? Okay I need to go . Come to my office later? I have an idea for a new post that you would be perfect for. This also applies to you. "Piper points to Brandon.

After that, she turned around, and also went to the entrance to the stadium.

As Nate was about to head for the settlement as well, Brandon suddenly put a hand on his shoulder.

"I heard you say that you are looking for your son, I hope that you will be able to find him here, but if you are not lucky, come to the White Stone City, we have more khm .. more informative sources of information, I think I can help you ... And yes, do not despair, I think your son is alive and well, in the wastelands children are not simply stolen "

Smiling bitterly, Nate replied. "Thanks, I hope for the best."

When the traveler left, Victoria approached Brandon and asked.

"A pity ?"

Brandon shook his head and answered. "Not really, just a little interest, I know a little about him, he is a very interesting character, I wonder how his search will end."

Rolling her eyes, Tori said. "Okay, let's go and see the pearl of the Commonwealth, I've never been here."

When the squad passed through the corridor leading into the stadium, they were faced with the spectacle of many large rusty iron boxes scattered here and there, scattered here and there, without any organization. These boxes are the homes of the residents of Diamond City. Apart from the houses, the most notable is the mud, mud is everywhere. People in gray, tattered, dirty clothes walk around smearing more dirt everywhere. If you look closely, you will notice that some do not even wear shoes.

After Brandon organized sewers throughout Whitestone City and covered everything with footpaths, dirt became a taboo for the citizens of their city. Accustomed to comfortable and clean clothes, as well as a daily shower, the inhabitants of their city do not want to return to the dirty and gray world outside, so everyone considers it their duty to keep the city clean. Thanks to this, their city can be called the cleanest, unless of course you count the underground bases, etc.

"It's disgusting, but when I was little I dreamed of living in this city in my dreams and considered it the best of the best, how wrong I was," Puffing out her cheeks, Victoria said.

Laughing Brandon rubbed his head with his hand and said. "Come on, the first thing every person is concerned about is their primary needs. Probably when you read the information on the computer you missed the boring part about sociology. So, here's a little lecture. "

Clearing his throat, Brandon took his wand and drew a pyramid with seven divisions on the dirt.

"This pyramid is called Maslow's pyramid of needs, named after its creator, it reflects the basic needs of a person for his motivation and existence. For example, the foundation of the pyramid is Physiological needs: hunger, thirst, etc., followed by the need for security, comfort, constant living conditions. These two categories are called Primary needs, followed by secondary ones such as social, prestigious, cognitive, aesthetic and self-actualization. "

In addition to Victoria, there were also three of the escort squad around the drawing, nodding and agreeing with Brandon's words, and also mentally thanking him for a little enlightenment.

Brandon continues. "Thus, we see that a person who finds himself in a dangerous wasteland first thinks about food and safety, and what is the best place for this? Bingo, Diamond City with their high walls and good security, so once they get here, they don't even think about thinking about aesthetics, but I assure you, this will not last long, after 5 or 10 years someone will definitely appear someone who will be interested in stopping living in the garbage. "

Rubbing her sweet chin thoughtfully, Tori asked. "If you follow your logic, your family should also strive to ensure that safety and food are the first priority. But when I spoke to Abigail, she said that you originally planned to build a clean and beautiful city, how do you explain that? "

Hearing the young girl's question, the escorts also nodded their heads, expecting to hear an answer from Brandon.

"You see, sociology is not an exact science, there are always big errors in it, I would say that this science is effective only when a large number of subjects are studied, but not as small as the Parker family."
