Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

As the sun's rays became more and more intense, some of the main streets on the ground floor were already overcrowded. People from Section 5 were maintaining order and ensuring that there were movable passages on every street for watching the live broadcast.

Today, more people have moved out the seats and benches. Yesterday was the first time for many people at the bottom to watch the live broadcast. Some children were imitating the battles of mutants, playing and playing, and they looked decent. .

boom

Accompanied by a burst of clapping, Cheng Chen hit an abandoned stone with his fist. The stone shattered directly. The children nearby kept crowding around, clinging to Cheng Chen and asking him to teach them.

"I said captain, it's almost time for us to leave."

The members of the special management team looked at Cheng Chen with some disgust. In the past two days, they had been at this orphanage, helping them repair their houses, cleaning them, and buying some things with their own money to help decorate the children's rooms.

"You go out into the streets and help maintain order."

Cheng Chen said, and the members of the team turned around and left. A group of people invited them to the Public Security Management Office to watch the exam comfortably and then drink.

The time is approaching, and he will go to the Weeping Bridge tomorrow morning to personally expel those who are involved in the Cocos Polyester Riots. However, Cheng Chen is sober at this time. Regardless of the past or the future, he just wants to continue to do something about himself. Just do what you can within your capabilities.

Some time ago, Cheng Chen kept asking himself, maybe what he did was just self-satisfaction, but after thinking about it for a long time, there is actually nothing wrong with self-satisfaction. In the eyes of many people, he has gradually become a Alien.

But Cheng Chen will never forget that his inadvertent act of kindness saved two lives. There are too many similar voices around him, and why bother with so many is just one of them.

Cheng Chen clenched his fists. He knew very well what he could do, as long as he continued as usual, and now that the city was willing to reach out to the bottom, it was good.

The bottom class is not as prosperous and developed as the middle and upper classes, and some people even don't have enough to eat. However, Cheng Chen likes it here very much. The relationship between neighbors is very good and they often help each other. Because of poverty, everyone understands the truth. Only Help each other to survive.

Some people who have never been to the lower class have the impression that the lower class is dirty and often full of violence and illegal activities. This is one point, but today's public security is much better than in the past, and consumption is cheaper than that of the middle and upper classes. Many, many areas close to the ground floor, the general public prefer to go to the ground floor to play.

Since more than 10 years ago, Niya promulgated a five-section regulation. All districts on the ground floor must ensure that 85% of the area is patrolled by members of the administrative section every day. At first, many section members were very dissatisfied, and a large number of officers appeared. It's just that Niya is very tough and will get out if she is dissatisfied.

After Cheng Chen left the orphanage, he walked to the street. However, at this time, he found that in an old house on the roadside, several people from Department 7 were taking pictures inside. They seemed to be talking about something, and a large number of people were surrounding them. Outside.

Cheng Chen went to inquire and found out that Section 7 had opened special loans for people at the bottom of the class, and family conditions were the first review factor.

"As long as it's 800 yuan, sir, I will definitely pay it back."

With his wife and children in the house, he begged. A person from Section 7 nodded and took out a form. After filling out the form, the family immediately received an interest-free loan of 800 yuan.

For a moment, people nearby clapped and praised, and Cheng Chen smiled and continued walking. After a while, he came to a main street. People from Section 5 gathered around the door of a pub, and people from Section 1, Section 8, and Section 9 were also there.

"I only borrowed less than 300 yuan from them, and finally paid back 1,200 yuan. They still refused to let me go, saying that I still owed them several hundred yuan."

A ragged citizen spoke to the camera. Everyone in the room squatted on the ground, holding their heads in their hands. One of them glared at this ordinary citizen fiercely.

Cheng Chen was a little surprised. He had never thought that it would be so fast, opening up loans and investigating loan sharking.

"Don't be slanderous. We have signed a contract. You signed the contract voluntarily. You and I are borrowing money privately. Sirs from the Business Department, isn't it illegal to borrow money between friends?"

For a moment, the people behind the little boss started shouting, and this ordinary citizen was a little scared.

"Forget it, as long as you don't want me to pay back the few hundred yuan, I'm leaving."

While talking, in full view of everyone, this citizen wanted to run away, but Cheng Chen walked over.

"If you are threatened or intimidated in the future, you can report the crime directly to the 5th Section. If you threaten or intimidate ordinary people, depending on the seriousness of the case, it will start at least three years. In such a special period, such threats and intimidation will last at least 10 years. Starting, or even expelling, if you don’t believe it, you can give it a try.”

Cheng Chen stared at the people in the room and pulled the ordinary citizen over. It was now the stage of investigation and evidence collection. Without key witnesses, the work of several departments could not be carried out.

"If any member of the public is willing to stand up, please come forward and accuse these people of their crimes, no matter how small they are. Our 5th Section will never be soft on illegal crimes. Please think about why Section 13 Secretary Le Xiao will be stationed on the ground floor."

The street was boiling for a while. Many people came over and pointed at the group of people in the house. Most of them had been violently treated by this small gang.

At this time, Cheng Chen also discovered that the people in several departments in this district were not so motivated, but now they were doing everything seriously. To solve this problem, there must be 5 or 7 departments. and 8 departments to conduct a joint investigation.

Along the way, Cheng Chen discovered that in just a few days, the mood of the people at the bottom had changed. There were extremely obvious changes. They were less sad and more smiling.

Cheng Chen quickly returned to the Public Security Management Office of Section 5 of Area 118. However, when he entered the cafeteria, he found that the members of Section 3 were waiting quietly with weapons and equipment. Cheng Chen was a little surprised.

What happened?

"Lele, do you really want to do this?"

Gu Ningning trembled and looked at Le Xiao. Le Xiao hurriedly covered her mouth, looked left and right, then glanced at the surveillance camera with a smile on her face, and then dragged Gu Ningning out of the room. The two of them came to a row of temporary rest rooms for officials located next to the examination room, a deserted place.

"Anyway, when the time comes, half of it will be you and half of me, Ning Ning!"

Gu Ningning's eyes widened in horror, her head shaking like a rattle, Le Xiao pressed her hands on her cheeks.

"Don't be afraid first. I'll go through what I want to say first. You have to give me some advice."

Gu Ningning swallowed and looked at Le Xiao as if she was joking. After she got up from a nap, she felt that something was still wrong, so she persuaded Le Xiao to follow the speech script that Michelle gave her. The content says, it’s better not to worry about the truth or not.

"Then I'm 70%, and you're 30% ready."

Gu Ningning's eyes widened.

This is simply not something we both can afford!

"Okay, okay, all the fault is mine, just say I planned it, okay?"

Gu Ningning still shook her head, Le Xiao crossed her hands.

"Ning Ning, if you don't help me, I will tell the secretary-general about your family."

Gu Ningning was horrified and pushed Le Xiao to the wall. The back of Le Xiao's head hit the wall with a crisp sound, and she was lifted into the air by Gu Ningning.

When Huashen discussed this matter with Le Xiao last night, he told Le Xiao that if Gu Ningning didn't agree, just tell Michelle about Gu Ningning's family affairs, and she would definitely help.

After a while, Gu Ningning looked uncomfortable, feeling uneasy in her heart. She felt like she was riding a tiger. She should have stopped Huashen last night, but now it was too late. Le Xiao in front of her seemed determined to make the matter public.

"I'm about to start practicing. If you think something is wrong, Ning Ning, remind me and we can change it."

At this time, not far away from the two of them, Wu Lei was holding a pair of gloves in his hand. He did not go over, but looked at the two secretaries from a distance. Michelle was still sleeping.

"I always feel that something is not going well. Do you want to report it to the manager?"

Wu Lei hesitated. He vaguely guessed something. If it were anyone else, Wu Lei would not even think about it, but this little girl with thick nerves would always do something that makes people feel like their brain circuits are broken.

While Wu Lei was thinking, he suddenly saw Le Xiao running towards him and directly took the gloves from Wu Lei's hand. They were a pair of work gloves that could fit the skin. They were very soft and would change according to the material. to change the flexibility suitable for human hands.

After Le Xiao put it on, she banged it on the wall, making a clear sound. She patted Wu Lei's shoulder with great satisfaction.

"By the way, what are you doing so mysteriously!"

"I will tell everyone the truth at the press conference at 1 o'clock."

Wu Lei groaned and pressed his head with one hand. However, as soon as he turned around, he felt a surge of electricity rush directly from the soles of his feet to his forehead. His eyes widened instantly, and he felt as if his brain circuits were burned out at this moment.

"What!"

"I said, I want to..."

Gu Ningning hugged Le Xiao from behind, covered her mouth, and looked at the dumbfounded Wu Lei in front of her.

"You're kidding, how is that possible?"

"Lord Gu Ningning, this kind of thing is probably not a joke."

Cold sweat broke out on Wu Lei's palms, back, and armpits. In the conference room of the General Affairs Department, 13 section chiefs and 6 gods were present. Publicizing the truth would never be allowed.

Wu Lei turned around decisively, and Le Xiao suddenly grabbed Wu Lei's hand, weighed his feet and hooked Wu Lei's neck with his arms, and said with a smile.

"You know now that you are an accomplice."

"Please stop joking, Le Xiao. Once the truth is announced, the city will be hit hard."

Le Xiao turned to the front of Wu Lei.

"Who are you kidding? You should know the current situation in the barrier area, right?"

Wu Lei nodded. As the secretary of the General Affairs Department, he naturally knew.

"No matter how good the barrier area is, there is only one thing in the city."

"Many ordinary people have become ill in the city. The number of 15 million is too big a concept for me, but I know very well that if we wait for a large-scale disease to break out, the bottom floor is likely to become the next barrier area! "

Wu Lei looked at Le Xiao blankly.

"Please help me Wu Lei, find a way to hold the Secretary-General down for me. She will definitely come to me when she wakes up later and ask me to memorize the speech. I haven't memorized it at all. How can I answer it?"

The blood all over Wu Lei's body seemed to have solidified. Such a grand announcement of the truth was inconsistent with his own philosophy since he was a child. His father once told himself that lies can solve many problems to a large extent. The reason why people in power lie , because there is no solution, so we use lies to cover it up. When we find the solution, we can solve the problem smoothly. The result will be the same, and the process can calm down the things caused by the problem.

"I'm sorry Le Xiao, I have to report it to the General Affairs Department."

In an instant, Gu Ningning had raised her hands, planning to knock the guy unconscious and then tie him up, but Wu Lei quickly reacted and dodged to one side, and Le Xiao quickly hugged Wu Lei's hand. waist.

"This matter is absolutely not allowed in the face of correct rights."

"Why are you like your father? Don't you want to surpass your father? Then help me now. Ningning and I are discussing how to say something reasonable later so as not to cause confusion. You can help me." Let's think about it, you have such a smart head, why are you like a stone? After all, your father and his gang of guys from the Food Association didn't do this. No one wants to be responsible for it. That's up to me. Come on, if you are wrong, you are wrong, but as long as you can admit your mistakes when you are wrong, you can avoid making the same mistakes again, right? I don't know about lying like this again and again. I don't know what rights are, but I only know that as a person, I should have What is conscience?"

Wu Lei stopped, and Le Xiao had been dragged more than 10 meters away by her. Le Xiao's fingers were tightly clasping the mobile phone in Wu Lei's hand, and one hand was desperately holding Wu Lei's waist.

At this time, Wu Lei's head was buzzing, and he felt very heavy. The little girl holding him could usually be lifted with one finger, but now it felt very heavy, so heavy that he could lift it with just one finger. This little girl is going to drag her to the ground.

From a young age, what I have been instilled in me is that rights are correct. Those who exercise power must stand in the right position. No matter how unbearable and dirty there is under their feet and behind them, they must choose the right path.

This little girl is an alien, an alien from outside the system, just an ordinary person!

A series of serious consequences that occurred after Le Xiao announced the truth were listed one by one in Wu Lei's mind, like a long scrolling list, flowing in his mind.

Wu Lei regained his strength and directly opened the special communication channel of the General Affairs Department. In an instant, Le Xiao let go of Wu Lei and started running like a fool.

"Come to Ningning with me, and I will announce the truth now."

Wu Lei's eyes widened, seeing that Le Xiao was about to run to the door. Wu Lei didn't press down his raised fingers, but quietly watched Le Xiao run to the door. He didn't know what was wrong with his body and couldn't move. , he couldn't stop it, a beam of white light shone on Le Xiao's body.

boom

"Ouch!"

Le Xiao screamed and almost fell to the ground, but at this time Gu Ningning held her with one hand. Qin Dong looked at the situation in front of him in surprise and hurriedly stretched out his hand. Le Xiao grabbed his hand. stood up.

"What's going on!"

Lexiao raised her head and pressed the painful nose.

"Why are you all like iron? It hurts me to death."

At this time, Wu Lei put his phone back into his pocket with trembling hands. Qin Dong originally just wanted to come over and ask about Michelle's situation, but he bumped into Le Xiao.

A few minutes later, Qin Dong's eyes widened and he looked at Le Xiao. His head was buzzing. He suddenly thought of the people still imprisoned underneath and those who were arrested for protesting outside the 5th Section headquarters. Endeavor people.

"follow me!"

Qin Dong took out a handkerchief from his pocket with trembling hands and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. What echoed in his mind was what Niya told him last night. No matter what he did, Niya would help him. He took it upon himself.

Wu Lei followed Qin Dong quietly. Just after 8 o'clock, there was still some time before the exam started.

"Master Qin Dong, shouldn't you be the same?"

"Secretary Wu Lei, do me a favor and hold the Secretary-General back. I will briefly convene a meeting between secretaries to protect this action of announcing the truth."

Wu Lei's eyes widened.

"Are you crazy? Master Qin Dong, obviously."

"please!"

Wu Lei stared blankly at the three people who were walking quickly and stood there. At this time, Le Xiao turned around and waved to him.

"If you help me, I will definitely introduce you to a beautiful woman!"

Wu Lei smiled bitterly and raised his head slightly. He was speechless for a moment. He turned around and quickly came to the door of the room where Michelle rested on the second floor. He looked at the two general staff who were guarding him. The department personnel asked them to evacuate. He lay on the balcony filled with sunshine, quietly meditating.

Now Wu Lei really wants to call his father Wu Qun. He is very confused.

Qin Dong took Le Xiao all the way to the third underground floor, where more than 200 arrested people who knew part of the truth about the incident were held.

"Why did you bring us here?"

Gu Ningning's tone changed from usual and became very serious. Qin Dong did not answer. He stood at the entrance to the cell and had already evacuated everyone.

"I can't, I can't face these innocent people, let alone answer their questions."

"Le Xiao, I hope you can go in and answer their questions, and they also know something about the poisonous food accident. This will be of great help to the truth you want to announce."

Watching Qin Dong walk into a visiting room next door, he dragged Gu Ningning in.

After the door closed, Qin Dong held the phone, his hand trembling slightly.

"She can't do it alone, Gu Ningning, we have to help her. Now is the time to make a decision. Maybe things will be very bad, or maybe they won't be very bad. No one can tell."

Qin Dong said and directly pressed the number 000201.

"Can I ask you a favor, Sister Lilian!"

"You will come to me personally, it's true."

Qin Dong swallowed with a heavy expression.

"I need a special quantum network for secretarial intercom video calls that can't be traced by anything."

"What on earth do you want to do!"

Lilian's voice turned cold.

"Please, Sister Lilian, no matter what I want to do, please help me!"

"Forget it, just think of it as the debt of gratitude I owe you. It will be paid off now. If you want to do anything, please inform Hima. She has just returned to the Eastern Guard Station."

The call was hung up, and Qin Dong immediately used the call authorization code, and within a few dozen seconds, he obtained authorization for a quantum communication network.

Section 3, Section 6, Section 7, Section 8, Section 9, Section 12, Gu Ningning watched Qin Dong press the numbers of the secretaries of the six sections in sequence.

After a while, light and shadow screens appeared in the room.

"It's Master Le Xiao!"

The cell became lively again. People who were resting on the small beds next to the wall quickly came over. Le Xiao swallowed and smiled.

"I want to ask everyone what you have discovered in your investigation."

For a moment, everyone looked at Le Xiao in surprise. Meiling stretched her hand out of the iron fence. Le Xiao hurriedly walked over and looked at the girl with half of her cheeks swollen. Others in the cell were somewhat injured.

"Lord Le Xiao, please tell me, have you already started investigating?"

Le Xiao nodded.

"Don't worry, everyone, you did nothing wrong. I will make the truth public, everything. So I hope everyone will tell me everything they know, but now everyone may have to wait for a while. Please be patient!"

At this time, on the six light and shadow screens, except for Chloe who was laughing, the other five secretaries listened to Qin Dong's words with shocked faces, and Qin Dong pressed his hands on the table.

"I want to ask for your help!"

"Help, of course I help. For such a fun thing, I will definitely be the first to raise my hands in favor."

Chloe said as the secretaries all started to move and ran to an unoccupied corner.

"I'm very happy Qin Dong!"

Xima lit a cigarette with a tired look on her face.

"I don't care, but there are a lot more people this time. Once the blame comes from above, just don't involve me!"

Gu Ningning's nervous heart was completely relieved. At this time, violent cheers erupted in the cell, and even some of the awakened members of the Protest Endeavor Association who were imprisoned behind Le Xiao also shouted fiercely.

"What are you doing standing here Wu Lei!"

Wu Lei was startled and hurriedly stood up straight.

"Your Excellency, Secretary-General, I have just finished handling the work at hand. Let them go to rest first, while I will stay here to guard them."

"Where's Secretary Le Xiao!"

Wu Lei immediately showed a slightly helpless look.

"She said she was hungry and went out to eat."

In an instant, Michelle looked furious, turned around and took out the phone. Wu Lei held up a phone with the logo of Section 13 with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Your Excellency Secretary-General, it seems that some friends of Master Le Xiao came over, and she went out with them."

"Why didn't you stop her?"
