Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 2023 Encounter

2276. 4, 2

8 o'clock in the morning

Le Xiao got up from the bed, just celebrated her 26th birthday last night.

"Work hard!"

Every morning, Le Xiao raised her hands and shouted these words, then got up quickly, ran to the bathroom of the small apartment, wiped her face with some water, rinsed her mouth, wiped it with a towel, and smiled in the mirror .

snort!Today is also an ordinary day, but we have to work hard.

Le Xiao had just passed her 26th birthday, and today she went to the middle-level ring street to look for news. If she couldn't find any interesting news, Le Xiao's job index for this month would be on the firing line.

This is already the ninth job Le Xiao has been looking for. After quickly changing her clothes, Le Xiao came to the mirror again and pressed her raised hair. At this time, the phone rang, and Le Xiao hurried over. It was her mother calling here.

"What's wrong with mom?"

"Are you really okay?"

Although Le Xiao was embarrassed, she still said confidently.

"It's okay mom."

"Hey, I really can't go back to the bottom floor and do something"

Le Xiao coughed.

"Mom, I'm going to be late for work."

Le Xiao said and hung up the phone, she didn't want to go back to the bottom floor, as long as she worked hard, it should be fine.

9 o'clock in the morning

Accompanied by a violent roar, Gene stood quietly at the door of a room billowing with smoke, leaning against the wall. There were bursts of roars, and then a shirtless man rushed out with a gun. Looking around, the moment he saw Jean, he raised his gun and pointed at it.

砰

The gun rang, but the next second the man watched in horror as the bullet near Jean's forehead was disintegrated little by little under the blue light, and then disappeared into particles. He trembled in horror.

"Tell me what you know, sir."

As Gene said, he held down the man's hand with one hand. The gun in the man's hand fell to the ground, and sweat oozed from his forehead. Gene looked at the gun in his hand, but did not find any serial number.

"Sir, attacking the section chief with a gun is already a very serious crime. I have the right to execute you on the spot."

Gene said and threw the gun aside, and then took out a cigarette. The man was almost crying, and he knelt on the ground and held his head.

"I'm from the barrier area. Do you know where that is, Mr. Jean."

Gene smiled easily, looking at the 5th Section personnel who had already arrived, Gene raised his hands, they stood in the distance and did not come over.

Gene has been tracing this line for a while, and now he has finally found a key point. There have been too many hijackings and riots in the city recently, all caused by these people who sneaked into the city's barrier area.

The city has reached a delicate stage again, and many things surging in the dark are about to break through the darkness and come to the world under the sun.

The man on the ground began to explain, and Gene listened quietly, he looked abnormally terrified, and seemed extremely self-blaming.

"That's all I know."

Genn let out a puff of smoke, then smiled.

"Thank you, sir. You will be sent directly to the prison. You will face at least 30 years in prison. Of course, you can also choose to go to the barrier area after being imprisoned for a period of time."

The man completely collapsed, sat on the ground and started to cry loudly. At this moment, people from Section 5 came over. Gene looked at the ring street not far away. According to the man's account, today a mutant from the barrier area will Caused a riot on the ring street, and Gene planned to squat over there.

After Jin handed over the man to Section 5, he jumped directly to the opposite roof, lit a cigarette again, and looked at the city in the distance under the sun.

"Time flies really fast."

Twenty years passed in a blink of an eye, and the city came to such a time before he knew it. Gene couldn't remember how many times this happened, and the investigation almost reached a dead end.

Who are the people behind the scenes who are trying to subvert the city, and when did they start planning? Gene, who has no way of knowing all this, has been a little impatient recently, but fortunately he found a breakthrough.

In the past 20 years, the city has been developing rapidly, and the connection rate of light and shadow materials has reached 90%. Only the outer circle of the bottom layer has not been fully connected.

But the light and shadow material is still unbearable for the people at the bottom, and the bottom has not changed much, and there are many slums, which is not what Gene wants to see.

In recent years, Gene has been actively promoting the plan to establish an agricultural and animal husbandry base in the barrier area. Unfortunately, the city's economy does not allow it, and it is extremely difficult to promote it. crop.

It is very difficult to pass this bill. Gene submitted this bill five years ago, but it was almost rejected by all votes, and the time agreed with several other guys is only 5 years.

Gene couldn't find any solution when the phone rang.

"Come over for a drink tonight?"

When Niya's voice came, Gene agreed after thinking for a moment.

At this time, sirens sounded on the ring street in the distance, and Gene ran over quickly.

A few minutes later, Gene stood on the roof, looking at the mutant who had destroyed some facilities with flames and took hostages. Gene waited quietly. People from Section 5 had already surrounded the scene. He was waiting for the special management team to come over, but this mutant obviously wouldn't wait any longer.

Now Gene is more convinced that their purpose is to stir up troubles in various parts of the city, spread panic, and find opportunities to break the balance of the city through such things that can cause panic.

Jean was still looking at the mutants from the barrier area below who kept saying things that could stir other people's hearts, but these things seemed meaningless to Jean.

Soon he threw away the hostages at hand, and released a beam of violent flames towards the Section 5 personnel who had already set up their shields, and then ejected out. Gene stood up and fell down instantly.

The crowd scattered, and a woman sitting on the ground seemed to be frightened. Gene had already dealt with the mutant in front of him and didn't talk nonsense with him. Gene turned around and stretched out his hand to the woman.

The girl in front of him looked very young. Gene seemed to have seen this girl somewhere, and he stretched out his hand to help the girl on the ground.

Then, under the girl's surprised eyes and the voices of many women around him, Jean left.

It's just that Gene soon noticed that the girl had stuck a tracker on her body. Gene didn't care, and walked leisurely on the street. Tianai was here to promote a product this morning. Gene had already communicated with She made an appointment to meet in the park.

Walking all the way, Gene found that the girl had followed. After entering an alley, Gene quickly jumped onto the roof. After a while, Gene came to the park, stared for a while, and Tianai appeared in the park and ran away. come over.

"How about we have dinner together tonight?"

Jin smiled and told Tianai that she had agreed to Niya's invitation, and Tianai immediately said that she would go too.

"Where's Hawk?"

Gene asked, and Tianai told Gene that Hawk was nearby. At this time, Gene also noticed the girl following and hiding in the bushes not far away. He immediately turned around and went to the grass in an instant. Terrified, Gene took her hand.

"Miss, it's bad behavior to secretly take pictures, and I'm afraid you won't be able to buy today's lunch when you come here at this time."

It's just that Jin's actions made Tianai instantly show hostility to the little girl in front of her. After a while, Jin took out an orange, which is the latest product of Section 12, and the fruit will be on the market soon. People in the city Should be very happy.

An orange resolved the upcoming quarrel at the scene.

"Be careful next time, miss, the bug has been returned to you."

Gene returned the tracker to the girl, then turned around and left with Tianai, leaving only the dazed girl who was still savoring the fruit.

All day long, Gene wandered around the scene where Tianai was filming the advertisement. The interrogation will start tomorrow, and Gene plans to go to Section 2 tomorrow.

In the evening, they drank with Niya until 1:[-] a.m., and then Gene left.

In the dark night, Gene shuttled through the upstairs rooms. He just wanted to find a little bit of something. On the street that was still lively at night, Gene was still investigating.

The current situation in the city made Gene more and more impatient. He was a little tired, and the only thing he could do was to prevent the city from collapsing again.

This sense of powerlessness drove Gene to keep running, and the resistance in his heart to the era of mechanization became weaker and weaker, because there was nothing he could do.

Gene really wants to go on leisurely every day like the other guys. After this matter is resolved, Gene will consider retirement.

The night is always so long, at 4 o'clock in the morning, Gene dealt with some things and returned home, he sat quietly by the window, watching the lights on the street outside.

Gene did not let his consciousness sink into the darkness all night, but waited until the sun was about to rise. Gene came to the rooftop and waited quietly for the rising sun. This is what Gene would do every morning .

However, no matter how eager to welcome the sun, the city is always engulfed by darkness bit by bit.

After the sun rose, Gene sat cross-legged on the roof, looking at the endless darkness in the distance. The barrier area has become a place that the city doesn't want to mention at all.

When did that place become like this.

The real solidification began in this decade. In the barrier area, the upper, middle and lower layers, there is a huge gap with no visible edge between each layer.

The city has not seen class counterattacks for many years in a row, and Gene can see all of this.

Countless people who want to cross the class will basically fall back to the original class, or even fall to the lower class.

The people are basically desperate for the future, as long as they can get by, this is what most people think, and the whole society is becoming more and more indifferent.

All kinds of remarks that caused riots continued to appear, and the people in the whole city became more and more anxious.

Why on earth did we build this city?

Gene has been thinking about this question a lot lately, but has no answer.

The city needs something fresh, something that can make everyone feel hopeful, but such things are hard to come by.

In this solidified city, it is difficult to find some points enough to pry everything.

Gene has tried many methods, but none of these methods have any improvement.

Over the years, many capable people have been promoted to the upper level of the administrative department, and the administrative department has completely transformed. The administrative department that used to have frequent problems in the past has now become a complete and efficient machine.

Gene hopes to change everything from the top down, but it is clear that in this rigid society, it is very difficult to make changes.

At around 9 o'clock in the morning, Gene came to Section 2. Everything inside was still the same, but when facing a kid who provoked him, Gene let him lie on the ground.

After entering the underground interrogation room, Gene heard a burst of arguments. He walked over and was a little stunned for a moment. The girl who was caught in Section 2 turned out to be the girl he met yesterday.

Seeing that she was about to be tortured by Lilian, Jean stopped Lilian.

It's that kid!

After knowing the girl's name, Gene was a little surprised. He couldn't help but think back to the Sun House that was always full of laughter in the past, as well as the accident in the past. So far, Le Wen has not found any whereabouts. Gene's heart He probably knew where Le Wen was going now, but he didn't go any further.

Because in Gene's heart, he was always uncertain, and Le Wen should not do such a thing.

Finally, under Gene's intervention, Le Xiao was released. Gene waited quietly at the door with a smile on his face. He waited until Le Xiao came out, and Gene walked over easily.

Le Xiao in front of her was obviously stunned.

"Miss, if you encounter any unhappy things, just look up, the sun will dispel everything."

The girl in front of him began to cry, very sad, Jean let her cry in his arms, waited for the girl's emotions to stabilize after a while, and then left directly.

In the dark, Gene saw Le Xiao who was chasing after him. She seemed to have remembered something. Gene returned to the top floor of a house. At this time, the girl had already shown a smile. It has long been forgotten.

Gene was investigating something all day long, and when the city fell into darkness again, Gene thought of the girl who was looking for herself on the street.

"Le Xiao!"

Gene turned on the light and shadow screen, and soon found Le Xiao's information.

After watching it for a while, Gene smiled helplessly. He felt that this girl was quite cute. It seemed that their family had not completely collapsed because of Le Wen's accident over the years. Gene hadn't paid attention to Le Wen's case for a long time. up.

"Go to the prison department tomorrow."

Gene turned off the light and shadow screen, and the shadow of Alpha flashed in his mind. Alpha has become much more stable in the past ten years, and Gene would go to the prison department every once in a while.

At this time, Gene seemed to have thought of something, and Le Xiao's face appeared in his mind again, and then Gene laughed, and his expression became much more relaxed.
