Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

"Why haven't you seen Miss Kelly recently?"

Verla asked. In front of him was the square where Jean often went to drink coffee. There was no one in the square now, and everywhere was filled with the sound of rumbling machinery. Some stalls still had the marks left by their long placement.

It's a pity that there are very few people in the square. Many people are either sleeping at home or have already started making goods.

Human life has been completely disrupted, and both Jean and Viera can see this very clearly.

"Are you really not going to do anything?"

Gene came to the place where he had been drinking coffee and sat down. Not long after the two sat down, a passing state worker came over.

"Sir and Miss, have you completed your production today? If not, please go back home and finish it, and then come out and enjoy the time after you finish it."

Gene and Vila took out their mobile phones one after another, and the staff member smiled after confirming.

"Sir, Miss, you actually move so fast, you can do more."

Gene smiled politely, and Vila stared at the leaving staff with playful eyes.

"If it were before, I would have killed this annoying fly directly."

Vila took off her sunglasses, her blue eyes full of anger. She crossed her feet. She didn't like the red high heels on her feet because they were the only style available, and they are basically what everyone uses now. They are all similar products.

Goods are almost no longer good or bad. Most people work now just because if they don’t work, they will be arrested and forced to work to complete production. Apart from entertainment, there is almost not much material that can be consumed in life. place.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation have become very cheap, even to the point of being negligible. Many things have lost their original value, or in other words, these valuable things are tied to everyone's labor force.

Now everyone feels unprecedented fatigue, and life is already a bit messy, because no one plans for them. Some people can only plan their own lives, but this kind of life seems to be different from what many people imagined.

Vera stood up, took Gene, and took his arm towards the park opposite. Although there were some people in the park, many of them looked a little dazed. It was obvious that such a leisurely life was what many people dreamed of.

But now this kind of life can only be accompanied by noise, which is non-stop from morning to night. Many families have pretended to have soundproof walls, but there are still some people who have not installed soundproof walls.

"He is doing such a terrible thing. Are you really not going to stop him? Gene, if we do it together, it will only take a week to destroy this country."

Gene blinked, then laughed, and he pressed Vila's head.

"What are you thinking? We can't interfere in anything now. Didn't we already say that?"

Vila curled her lips and laughed.

"I just look at such a dull world and feel very unhappy. After all, for us now, what Tommy will do in the future is crazy. The only way to stop him is now."

Gene looked at a bench, pulled Vila over, and the two sat down.

"Is there really any way for you and me to stop Tommy now? He has completed his self-evolution, whether it is knowledge, energy or strength. He has evolved to a place that we may not even imagine."

Vila snorted coldly and said.

"Such a city has become very dull and boring. Everyone has lost their vitality. Once humans lose their vitality, many people will go crazy."

drip.

A piece of news popped up, and Verla turned on her phone. Gene glanced at it, then reluctantly lit a cigarette, took a puff and exhaled the smoke. He raised his head with a slightly helpless expression.

"Look, a well-known actress committed suicide. She was still participating in the show last night, and she committed suicide today. She was only 30 years old."

Gene snorted. At this time, the suicide note of the actress after committing suicide was published on the news.

Although this actress has earned too much money and devotes herself enthusiastically to work every day, she feels more and more anxious because the money in her hands will never be used up in several lifetimes. Like ordinary people, she seems to have tried to do some interesting things in the past, but these things cannot fill the emptiness in her heart.

"This won't work."

Vila looked at the news. In many news, the game industry has reached unprecedented heights, but many games have negative reviews, because most games are made by the state and individual game companies no longer exist.

Many people are dissatisfied with the boring game modes, cookie-cutter game mechanics, and some confusing games. Moreover, the types of games are all related to war, as well as a variety of highly confrontational games. .

These games simply cannot meet the current huge market demand, and some of them even seriously instill some mechanical concepts.

Of course, Vila knew that this was part of Tommy's strategy, because in this way, the entire country could be completely turned into a huge factory, because there are now many step-by-step game modes, and these games also have monetary rewards.

This sparked a lot of interest, but now that interest is waning, and soon Vierra saw a presidential order prohibiting individuals from developing and manufacturing games, and it would be a felony if arrested.

"Hahaha, he really wants to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, and he wants to turn everyone into screws."

Gene put out his cigarette butt and looked into the distance. There were really few people on the street, because such a low-desire society is very uncomfortable for human beings who pursue fresh and exciting feelings.

In particular, human beings who have experienced the era of information explosion are even more dissatisfied with the current society with extremely strict information control. Many people are increasingly feeling exhausted and tired.

Although some sports, such as football or basketball, have emerged in various places, it is obvious that these sports have long been of no interest to modern humans. Although there are some fans, they are only a small part.

These sports were very popular around the world in the past. However, with the advent of human disasters, the sports have been abandoned for two centuries. People now have no good impression of this primitive sports.

"Let's go, we're going back too."

The two stood up because another state worker came to remind them. They patrolled the streets tirelessly every day and reminded some people to go back to work at home. This approach made many people feel uncomfortable.

The staff of these countries were also the same. They looked irritable and anxious. Soon there was a conflict between staff and citizens. The two sides started to quarrel. Soon the PLC came to calm the situation.

The two continued to walk, and before returning home, they encountered six attempts by state staff to persuade them. They returned to the apartment where they lived. The president did not show up in the past few days, and even after issuing some presidential orders, he did not show up to make public statements. Television speech.

"Although this country has become very good, materially and economically, it has met everyone's needs, but spiritually, it is going backwards."

Gene entered the elevator and Verla laughed.

"I don't think a country that lacks spirit can win the final victory. Many people will become increasingly numb because their desires have been suppressed in their hearts."

After returning home, the two of them laughed helplessly after looking at the large and small machinery and a lot of supplies in the house. Vierla sat by the window and looked at the quiet city outside.

Now the consumption of electric energy has dropped sharply, down 50% compared to the past. Such a drop is unimaginable, because humans rarely travel now, and a large number of flying cars have been replaced by electric energy. Now there are very few Fly into the sky.

Cars could occasionally be seen flying by on the shoulder of the building, which was incomparable to the density in the past. Gene sat opposite Vila, holding a bottle of wine and pouring some for Vila. "I don't think a country like this is the answer to the future. This era is even more terrifying than the mechanized era you envisioned."

Vila said, and Gene hummed.

"In the past, our idea was to divide all job positions according to the stages of human growth from birth to adulthood, but we did not cancel the market and businessmen. After all, sometimes many things are born because of the desire for profit, so Society has come to a complete standstill, as if time has completely stopped."

"Think carefully about Jean. If we take action now, we still have a chance to prevent and completely stop this war."

Gene shook his head again.

"I no longer want to continue thinking about the future of mankind. This is not something we have to worry about, because we have no obligation now to help mankind survive."

Vila smiled helplessly.

"When did your thoughts change?"

"As early as 100 years ago, I had already thought about it. I have been watching something reborn, and then watching it collapse. I have experienced the helpless despair countless times."

Virla laughed.

"Indeed, didn't you find new hope?"

Gene laughed out loud. In his mind was the ignorant girl he saw on the ramp when leaving the Agriculture Department at dusk.

"I just gave the child a little help. I didn't expect that she would do many incredible things, but these things are not enough to change mankind, let alone lead mankind to overcome difficulties. Now I just want to be a bystander. Or, take a good look at the final outcome of this world."

Vila shook her head.

"So what if you saw it? Can you find the answer?"

Gene shook his head.

"Maybe it can be found, maybe it can't be found, but the current situation is already very good, and I don't need to lead everything anymore. Because all of this should be made by humans."

Vila took a sip of wine. In her impression, Jean was not like this. Now Jean was a little lost, as if he had lost interest in everything. He no longer had the sense of calmness he had before. Now Gene was more like a corpse that had seen everything and no longer wanted to breathe.

"But it's a bit boring now. We don't know when the captain will come to take us away. After all, there is nothing interesting in the world now. This world is lifeless."

dong dong dong.

The door to the room rang, and Gene walked over and opened it.

"Sir and Madam, now we have adjusted according to the production capacity and sales structure of this community. You now need to manufacture other things. We are here to recycle the machines."

Soon, several national staff members came in and brought new house-making machines. Vila seemed very upset, and two staff members began to teach them how to use the new product-making machinery and what kind of products they should produce.

All this made Vila increasingly irritable, and Gene patted her on the back.

"It'll be fine in a while."

Soon some unused machinery and raw materials were taken away from the house, and new machinery and raw materials were moved in.

"Please two of you start working quickly to complete the production capacity of today's new machinery."

The door to the room closed, Vila took off her sunglasses, and then said angrily.

"I've had enough Gene, I don't want to do anything anymore."

Verla lay on the bed, Gene smiled helplessly.

"I'll just do it."

Verla looked at Jean, who looked serious. She seemed to have thought of something. After a while, Verla got up.

"You really work hard and don't complain. You have been doing this kind of thing all your life."

Gene smiled.

"No matter what kind of thing, how difficult or difficult it is, or how reluctant you are to do it, someone has to do it. This is how the world is."

Gene said, picked up some raw materials and started mixing them, then looked at Vila and said.

"We are the same, just like it is a mission, we must complete it, otherwise, our existence will be meaningless. The same is true for the humans here. Once the war starts in the future, such things should happen It’s over, once there is a sense of crisis, humans should take action.”

Vila sat down, she sighed and said.

"Since we can't wait for Captain John, we might as well wait somewhere where we are, such as Steka, or the country of kangaroos."

Jean laughed easily, and Vera stood up and came over. She planned to help Jean complete the production capacity of the newly arrived machinery today.

However, at this time, the door of the room was knocked open, and it was a neighbor.

"Mr. Jean, can you help me today? We have something to do today."

Gene nodded and said.

"Give me the key. I will finish this later and will go to your house to finish your part."

"Thank you Mr. Jean, I really appreciate you."

Vila snorted coldly.

"How many times has this happened? Every time you say something is wrong, Jean, please don't go over to help."

The neighbor hurriedly turned around and ran away with a smile. Gene closed the door and smiled helplessly.

"There's nothing to do when you're idle anyway." (End of Chapter)
