Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 1971 The Butterfly Wings 3

2pm

Ran Zai patted his stomach, just after eating, he picked up the juice on the side and took a sip. Gene opposite was talking with the owner of the shop. Ran Zai didn't know where Gene was going to take him, but today All day should be more exciting.

"Let's go!"

After a while, Gene came over and said, Ran Zai got up and followed, but Gene just led him wandering on the street, and entered some shops from time to time to look around, Ran Zai felt a little bored.

"You wouldn't take me shopping, you should go to other women for this kind of thing."

Gene just smiled and never said a word.

An hour passed quickly, and Ran Zai was a little bored, such a boring shopping was not what he wanted, and he didn't know what Gene was going to do.

Then the two took the subway and went to the circular street in the intersection commercial center of the four districts newly built last year on the middle level. Gene would respond to anyone who greeted him, and he would even agree to a woman's request for a photo.

Time passed by, and Ran Zai was a little dumbfounded, because Jean was always taking him shopping, and now Ran Zai was sure that this was pure shopping, and Jean didn't ask anything related to the case. He just took Ran Zai for a walk.

"Aren't you going to take me somewhere?"

Ran Zai asked a question, but Gene just smiled back and didn't answer, but at this time Ran Zai's restless heart calmed down, and his fast-running head became more relaxed. He didn't know how long it had been since he had such a leisurely time. Going shopping, I feel like this might be a good idea.

The two strolled on the ring street until it was close to 6 o'clock, and Jean took Ran Zai to a street full of food shops.

"what do you want to eat."

Ran Zai chose a store with a smile, but soon his expression became serious.

"This will not be my last meal."

Gene didn't answer, and sat in with Ran Zai.

Dark night
There were neon lights flashing on the street, and the two of them had just walked around halfway during the day, and Jean dragged Ran Zai to go shopping again.

Facing the breeze, Ran Zai felt very comfortable. He drank a little wine and looked at Gene in front of him. Although Ran Zai had a lot to say, he finally stopped.

The two just wandered around casually, looking around without purpose. The best way to pass the time was shopping.

"Anything else you want to eat?"

10pm

Jean pointed to the night street in the distance, and the aroma of barbecue wafted over. Ran Zai shook his head, and Gene's hand pressed over to Ran Zai's head. Ran Zai was a little surprised, and then Jean asked.

"Where else do you want to go?"

"Which show are you acting in?"

Ran Zai pushed Gene's hand away, Gene smiled and walked slowly, Ran Zai followed quickly again.

"Go to the highest place."

Ran Zai said, Gene nodded, and the two came to an alley, Gene squatted halfway and stretched out his hand, Ran Zai happily lay on Gene's back, and Gene jumped up.

Soon Ran Zai cheered excitedly, he liked this feeling very much, shuttled between buildings, felt the extremely strong wind, and there were dense lights in front of him.

With Ran Zai on his back, Jean kept heading towards the upper floor, and soon came to the top of the LK building, which is the tallest building in Bright City.

After putting down Ran Zai, Gene took out a cigarette. Ran Zai watched as Gene lit the cigarette, and a wisp of smoke drifted over. Ran Zai watched the drifting smoke calmly, and then looked down into the distance.

The two of them didn't speak any words, they just quietly blowing the wind on the roof.

After a long time, Ran Zai opened his mouth to speak.

"It was a good day."

"I'll come back when I'm free and take you shopping."

Ran Zai laughed.

"You're so busy, don't worry."

Gene let out a puff of smoke with a smile, and at this moment Ran Zai turned around to look at Gene, and then leaned back. Gene kept smiling, watching Ran Zai raise his hand and wave, he relaxed Opened the cigarette in hand.

For a while, Ran Zai couldn't hear anything, and a suffocating cold feeling spread all over his body. At this moment, Ran Zai felt that his thinking had been frozen, and he could see bigger and bigger black blocks above.

The body has lost consciousness, Ran Zai closed his eyes, and then opened them suddenly, the ground was already in front of him, but the next second Ran Zai stopped, less than 5 cm from the ground, he would turn into meat sauce , the blue particles were flying, and Jean pulled Ran Zai up.

"how do you feel?"

Ran Zai came back to his senses at this moment, his body was already trembling involuntarily, he held up his violently shaking hands, only at this moment did he feel that he was still alive, and in the next second Ran Zai was already in tears.

Gene just stood quietly aside. He couldn't be more clear about what happened to this child. He couldn't choose his own origin. Since he was born, he stayed in the dark with his mentally disturbed mother, and finally saw the light. It's just that the light quickly fell into the darkness.

Ever since I was a child, I have only faced darkness, and I have always yearned for light in my heart, but for Ran Zai, this light is too heavy.

"Mr. Pristine's business."

"terribly sorry."

Ran Zai's eyes dimmed, he stopped crying, and a complicated and sad smile appeared on his face. He knew very well what was going on in his life, and the impulse in his heart to destroy everything, opened up every day. His mind is numb, he knows everything about crime, and it is because he knows everything that he suffers.

Gene stood aside silently, waiting for Ran Zai to get up by himself. He was curled up by the wall at this moment, staring blankly at the front. From the child, Gene could see the Brilliant City.

The shining city built by countless generations can be seen in this child. Gene knows that no matter what he does, he will not be able to change the fate of this child, because he has been immersed in black since he was born. Darkness that even light can hardly penetrate.

Gene knew that Ran Zai was living in pain, anger and anxiety every day, but he was still struggling and wanted to resist all of this. After seeing Ran Zai, Frye once said in detail to Jean that it was too late.

Everything about a person has collapsed long before the light of life is warm. Such a person either has a mental problem or will choose to die, but Ran Zai is still alive. If there is anything that can save him, maybe only his parents , but his mother is dead, and his father doesn't know who it is, just a bastard who spent money to vent his desire.

This is a child born without love, he doesn't know what love is, and he doesn't know what warmth is, so he can't understand, even though he is very smart, smart enough to know everything, but he can't feel it, because He has no ability to love, nor the right to be loved.

Gene didn't know what else he could do for this child, but the only thing he could do now was to take time out and be by his side like today, whether he was sad or happy, whatever he wanted to say, he could only Be by his side.

Gene has accompanied countless people, accompanied these people from birth to the end, and witnessed their lives. These memories are still clear to this day, and Gene remembers everything about these people.

Looking at Ran Zai's dazed look, Gene knew that no matter what words and actions he said at this time, it would be useless.

"How about I take you to the couple's house on the lower floor to stay for a few days, and I will pick you up after the school is over."

At this moment, Ran Zai had some reactions. He looked at Gene, a glimmer of light flashed in his mind, and he felt a warm feeling in his heart.

"Okay."

At around 11 o'clock, Jean brought Ran Zai to the lower floor of District 118, where Le Wen and his wife Su Xin lived.

This was a glimmer of light in Jin's mind. The kind-hearted couple still lived there. Jin would go over to have a look and chat with the couple from time to time.

When Ran Zai was placed at the couple's house before, Jean saw a different brilliance on Ran Zai's face.

11:21

Jean put down Ran Zai, the situation was still the same, a three-story building with a yellowish light, and the husband and wife still didn't sleep.

Gene walked over and knocked on the door. Su Xin looked at Gene and Ran Zai behind him in surprise.

“Mr. Jean, Xiao Ran, come in quickly.”

Everything in the house remained unchanged, a smell of alcohol came over, and Jin took out a bag of gifts bought on the road from behind, including wine and some food, Su Xin did not refuse and readily took it.

The moment he stepped into the room, Ran Zai's expression softened, and Le Wen walked out from inside, happily letting Jean and the others go there together.

"He's a kid, really."

Watching her husband pour Ran Zai a glass of wine, Su Xin reminded, Ran Zai took it with a smile, and Gene also explained the purpose of coming, hoping to let Ran Zai live here for a while, because the school he is studying at Big problem.

Both husband and wife agreed, and the house is still the same as before. Everything looks very warm and everything is in order. Ran Zai smiled happily.

The husband and wife also chattered about some things, still the same as before.

"Mr. Gene, my friends and I plan to start a company together, a biomechanical medical company called Bincai."

Gene listened to Le Wen's thoughts with great interest, because he saw many disabled people. Although the technology in the city is advanced, biomechanical technology is still stagnant. Le Wen wants to study a Materials between living and non-living things, if successful, will benefit cities.

Jean nodded very supportively. Ran Zai just listened, feeling incredible. When he looked at the couple, he felt really comfortable. Every move they made made Ran Zai feel a little warmth .

"By the way, Mr. Jean, we have decided to have a child, and the application has already come down, we just need to queue up until 2250."

"That should be soon."

Jean said, looking at the couple's happy appearance, so many years have passed, the couple has not changed at all, they are people who really live with the sun in their hearts.

Ran Zai started to interject, and the two of them talked about things after they had a child without shy away, while Gene listened silently.

After chatting for a while, Gene got up. He bid farewell to the small building. Seeing Ran Zai happily follow Le Wen to the second floor, he felt relieved temporarily.

Gene didn't leave immediately, but looked around at everything.

"If only there were more people like them."

Gene muttered helplessly that the kindness of the husband and wife can go straight to the hearts of the people. This is what Gene found out. The neighbors nearby are also very happy because the husband and wife live together every day.

It was very late at night, and Jin walked on the deserted road. There are no gang members here now, because it is too poor, and many houses have been plunged into darkness.

The ground floor will not change much in the future, because the social structure has been fixed when the city was first established, and soon Gene came to a small square that was still lit, and there was still no one there.

"Walking around, is it still the same as before!"

Jean sat by the small pool in the middle of the square, silently lit a cigarette, and showed a disappointed expression. This is the city they built by themselves.

The wind kept whistling and whining as it passed through some alleys, as if crying. Gene exhaled a mouthful of smoke and looked at the darkness in the distance in a daze.

Gene was exhausted and could only deal with some things every day. There were always countless things waiting for Jean every day.

Recently, Gene visited some old friends. Some old friends have ushered in the end of life, and Gene watched them leave.

This kind of night Jean would experience every day, where to spend it, how to pass it, or continue to deal with some cases, without any purpose, just like the darkness in front of him that could never see the sky.

The only thing that is gratifying now is that under the leadership of Niya, the administrative department has begun to change rapidly, and Michelle has fully adapted to the work of the general affairs department.

The night was already very deep, the lights in the small square were extinguished, Gene stood up and looked at the faintly visible white light in the distance, the ground floor was almost completely plunged into darkness.

Jin plans to go to Section 5 and drink with Niya. She should not be asleep yet.

3:[-]

Gene stood on the wall of Section 5's headquarters, and sure enough, he saw that the lights in the section chief's office were still on. After falling down quickly, Gene jumped directly to the window.

"Asshole, come here so late, are you done?"

Seeing Nya's annoyed expression, Gene walked over, and Nya directly assigned some work to Gene.

"If you have nothing to do, hurry up and help me get it off, my mother is really going to die, this is a human thing!"

Gene smiled and sat down. Niya directly picked up the phone, called the secretary, and asked him to go to the cafeteria to get some food. Gene had already started to process some documents.

"I have something to ask you, Gene."

Niya spoke at this time, and Gene nodded.

"My classmate, Li Ang's matter, if you have time, help me to take a look, no matter what I say, it's useless."

Gene hummed.

"What do you think the future holds?"

Gene suddenly asked, Niya smiled and lit a cigarette, and threw one to Gene.

"What happens in the future is none of my mother's business. The only thing I can do now is not to make the future worse."

Gene laughed and nodded.
