Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

4:35 am

In a pub that was still open, many people were already drunk. There were a table of men and women, some of whom were so drunk that they couldn't get up. The boss was also a little tired and planned to close the shop. However, at this moment , the door of the tavern was pushed open.

"Besides, Alpha, don't you know how to investigate yourself? You have to drag me, and in the middle of the night?"

"There's nothing I can do. I can't do anything on my own, so I can only find you as my partner."

The boss's eyes widened for a moment, and he wiped his eyes again to confirm that he had seen it correctly.

"Master Alpha, would you like something to drink."

Seeing Alpha sitting at the bar, the boss became energetic again. After Alpha asked for something to eat and drink, the boss immediately ordered some people to do it and watched quietly from the side.

Since last year, although Alpha has not returned to management, he has been given the title of a criminal investigator, which allows him to conduct all criminal investigations without any hindrance. Alpha spends most of his time on the streets around the city, conducting some She is investigating crimes, and her partner is Mo Xiaolan, both of whom are criminal investigators.

Alpha and Mo Xiaolan's achievements throughout last year were brilliant. 109 cases were solved, 18 of which were major ones. The media was still reporting on Alpha's affairs.

At this time, many people who were still awake in the tavern also noticed Alpha, especially some women, who came over excitedly and wanted to take photos and sign autographs.

After a while, the two started eating and drinking. Mo Xiaolan didn't like this kind of thing at all. She just wanted to get married to her boyfriend as soon as possible and then quit her job. Anyway, her boyfriend Luo Wen was also working in a big company. As the head of the technical department, there is no problem in supporting himself, and Mo Xiaolan does not intend to inherit the family business. Anyway, there is no problem that his parents can continue to work for thirty-four years.

But now that Alpha is dragging him all over the city, Mo Xiaolan can still eat, drink and have fun with Alpha's public funds, but this kind of thing gives Mo Xiaolan a headache.

Tonight, she was at Rowan's house. She had just taken a shower and planned to spend the night with Rowan. However, Alpha intervened and said that she had found clues to the kidnapping case and that the kidnappers might start again tonight.

After the last two people checked for several hours, Mo Xiaolan determined who the kidnappers wanted to take action against. The two contacted the wealthy businessman and his wife in advance. After confirming everything, the kidnappers took action and were caught. , plus the two cases they committed before, it has been at least 30 years.

"I asked you, Alpha, are you tired?"

Alpha smiled and shook his head.

"What's so tiring? You can't stand such a small thing?"

Mo Xiaolan lay on the table and could only sigh helplessly.

"If I were you, I would have married Noah."

Alpha shook his head.

"Even if we really get married, the intensity of work in the future will not allow us to have too much private time, which will inevitably cause problems, so we discussed it early in the morning and we can only see each other once or twice a month. "

"I'm really impressed by you two."

Mo Xiaolan said, yawning and looking at the pile of wine ordered by Alpha.

"Hurry up and finish your drink and then I'm going back to bed."

"Cheer up, little lazy boy. You are very talented. Even Sister C has said that I will leave subject 2 to you in the future."

Mo Xiaolan shook his head.

"I'll forget it. The section chief needs to have the strength of an S-level mutant after all. You can see that I've been here for so many years and I'm still just the lowest-level mutant. My ambition is not here."

Alpha raised his hand and pulled Mo Xiaolan over.

"I will give you strict guidance for a few months and you will definitely be able to do it."

"Absolutely not."

Mo Xiaolan said and leaned his head over.

"Look at you now, your whole body is like an iron plate. When I think of Noah doing those things with you in bed, I feel sad for him, and"

Alpha pinched Mo Xiaolan's mouth.

"I'm just a little firmer, and my muscles are very tough. I don't have any extra fat. Look at you, your belly is flabby, and so are the two lumps on your chest. If I were a man."

"Too loud."

Mo Xiaolan hurriedly stopped Alpha. Both of them were a little drunk. At around 5 o'clock in the morning, they walked out of the pub drunk. Alpha planned to run back directly, but Mo Xiaolan grabbed her.

"I'll take you back, 20 minutes at most."

6:03 am

When the sun had just risen, Violet had already woken Nia up from the bed.

"Mom, can you let me sleep a little longer?"

Violet held her cell phone. The test results she received last night showed 0 points in many subjects.

For a moment Niya was completely awake.

"It's impossible. How can it be 0 points? I've done all the questions well."

Violet couldn't bear it any longer, so she grabbed Nia.

"Except for your sports scores this year, your other scores have been a mess. The teachers in the school also told me that you are too naughty Niya. Are you really willing to do it?"

"Not willing to give in."

Violet was a little relieved, but Nia quickly added.

"What can I do if I don't want to give in? I just don't know how to do these things."

At this time Niya looked around.

"Where's my sister?"

"sleeping."

Niya got off the bed with a smile.

"What are you doing? I'm going to get my sister up. She should have been exercising at this point."

Violet didn't think much. Nia ran barefoot into Alpha's room, locked the door, and tiptoed into Alpha's cup. The smell of alcohol immediately made Nia pinch her nose.

"It stinks, sister, where were you last night!"

Niya pressed Alpha's body hard, but Alpha didn't respond after pressing for a long time. She could only turn her head and soon fell asleep again.

Violet frowned and looked at the locked room, wanting to open it, but when she thought that Alpha should have been working last night, it would be bad to wake her up.

"I'll take care of you later."

At this time, there were already a lot of people on the family lawn, and lifts kept falling. Congress has finally opened this technology to some companies, but if you want to be qualified to use lifts, you need to go through strict review. , and the lift is also expensive, and only wealthy families can afford it.

A large number of members of the Angus family have come over. Today, the husband and wife council and family members held an internal family meeting to establish the preparation work for the next three to four years. The underground construction project will officially start in 2216. This Even with the support of existing technology, funds and manpower, the huge project covering the entire city will take at least 8 years to complete.

This is another big gamble by the Angus family. Although the Angus family had huge financial resources in the past, it is now more stable. The Angus family’s financial resources are enough to support this construction. The most important thing is that within the 10 With the help of Ke, various technologies completed under the leadership of Avano can provide a strong guarantee for this construction.

The city will enter an era of comprehensive construction in four years. All areas will have at least five subway station entrances, covering the entire block, and a large number of logistics transportation pipelines.

Food can be taken out of warehouses directly from the underground warehouses of various exchanges in the east and transported to logistics transfer stations around the city as quickly as possible.

Cars will begin to be gradually eliminated, so that the gods can completely build a more stable ecosystem.

In recent years, due to the unstable climate, various places in the middle and lower strata have encountered heavy rains from time to time. The underground sewage pipes in the city are also chaotic, some have been blocked, and various repeated construction problems have occurred in various places.

If we don't start to transform the city, the situation will get worse and worse.

Avano's design drawings have been approved by Witte and Li Chu. These designs are accurate to the level of detail of what is needed under each square meter of land.

This is so that when there is a problem with the city's underground facilities in the future, the problem can be easily found. The underground sewage pipes in the city will use recycled old mobile phones as raw materials to make a pipe that does not need to be replaced for a hundred years. Underground alloy pipes.

All pipes are arranged from top to bottom, and dirt will be discharged directly from the pipes into the ravine areas that will appear in the future. The new round of construction in the city requires more stones, and today's particle-level treatment technology is already very Mature.

Soon most of the Angus family members entered the large living room on the first floor used for indoor banquets. After a while, hundreds of people sat on the chairs created by light and shadow. Avano began to explain in detail The family and its family members explained the plan, and many people looked at the design drawings on the screen and felt amazed.

Violet has already begun distributing some information, which is a part that everyone needs to bear individually.

Some people at the scene raised questions, because the cost of this project was too huge, and it was obviously impossible for the Angus family to do it.

"Just last night, we have officially signed a contract with the Hillman family. We will work with them to complete this huge project."

As soon as Avano finished speaking, many people felt uncomfortable for a while, because many people had dealt with people from the Hillman family, and their entire family gave people an extremely uncomfortable feeling. They were all greedy people. An immoderate guy, he also thinks very highly of himself, is arrogant and arrogant.

"There's nothing we can do about it. It's basically impossible for the other six major families to get involved."

Someone started talking, and at this moment a middle-aged man stood up.

"Avano, our entire family will abide by your decision. However, we must be careful when cooperating with the Hillman family. Their entire family has great ambitions, and the accounts must be handled well."

Avano nodded, and now he began to explain the plan again.

Everything in front of her was exciting. Violet, who was watching her husband quietly from the side, felt relieved. This was her husband's plan 30 years ago, and now it has finally been realized. Once all this is completed, real events will take place in the city. With earth-shaking changes in meaning, the era of materialization of light and shadow will officially come.

After a while, after the explanation, everyone in the family began to discuss the possible risks in the plan and everything else. Avano kept answering various questions.

At this time, within the Hillman family, members of all the families gathered together, and a large number of businessmen also gathered in piles. Everyone was celebrating that the two leading families in the city could cooperate, because these two It was the first cooperation between the big families, and I didn’t expect such a big move.

"Everyone, this is the best era, don't you think so?"

Eddie held up his wine glass and looked at the hundreds of people in front of him. With a burst of applause, Eddie walked up to the stairs, and hundreds of people raised their wine glasses.

"Let me toast everyone first."

Eddie smiled. He knew very clearly that Prometheus had already calculated everything about the future that was hindering the destruction of his Angus family. Eddie had been waiting for such an opportunity for more than 20 years. Now the Angus family is finally cooperating with themselves.

For such a huge project, as long as there is a problem in any link in the middle, it will lead to a series of chain reactions. Even if it can be completed, in the end the entire Angus family will become the cornerstone for him to officially become the king of the city.

When he became aware of the Angus family's plan, Eddie had already started making preparations. He now fully understood why the gods gave the Angus family some plans alone.

No one can stop it. Eddie knows very well that even if the Alpha finally stands at the top of the world of power, she can't stop anything, because this time it is in the name of the city, and no one can stop the city's crushing plane. In front of all the giant battleships.

However, while Eddie was still excited, someone in the venue felt something was wrong, and some even shouted.

“Something’s taken off in the middle West.”

Eddie was also a little confused. Soon everyone ran to the lawn. Eddie looked at his phone and saw a huge object flying in the sky. A giant metal ball with a red circle of light around it was passing over the city. In the sky, people on the scene were already talking, and the whole Academy of Gods flew up and was heading towards the upper level.

The moment Eddie looked over, there was a cry of surprise on the lawn. The giant black sphere, which was still far away from the upper level, was slowly moving towards this side. Eddie immediately looked to the west.

He instantly understood that the huge piece of land vacated by the mountain peak that had been cultivated for ten years was the final landing point of the ball.

No one has gone up to see it, because it is surrounded by steep mountain walls, and Congress prohibits anyone from going near it.

Gradually, more and more people walked out of the house. Everyone looked at the giant black sphere that slowly came to the upper floor. No sound could be heard. The huge sphere almost instantly plunged the place it passed by into darkness, and the light could not be directly illuminated. When it shines on it, it looks very strange. Some people also bluntly said that there should be something on the outside that can absorb light.

A huge shadow passed over the city and could even cover the sun. No one knew what it was. They only knew that it was separated from the Academy of God. At this time, someone ran over and there was nothing but a depression. The School of God in Dakeng.

Someone soon released the measured distance. The crater was at least 100 meters deep.

Before the media in the city reported it, a national televised conference began. Locke directly told all the people that the scientific research institute in the city would be moved to the top floor, so that everyone did not need to panic, and everyone was more concerned about the black metal What is that violent red circle on the surface of the big ball?

Someone used some photos to carry out proportional enlargement calculations and came to the conclusion that this giant sphere is at least 5 kilometers in diameter.

Everyone is also discussing what is inside, but most people know that the technology developed by the gods should be stored in it. There must be many technologies that people don't know are hidden in it, and they will be opened one after another.

Many people cheered because such a behemoth could fly in the air at a constant speed. At this time, the huge sphere had reached the upper level, and people kept taking pictures with their mobile phones.

Everyone was amazed that there was such a thing in the city, but some people were also worried.

"This thing might go to heaven."

"Idiot, isn't it already in heaven?"

A man looked numbly at the street that had shrouded his place in darkness. He looked further away, at the gray-black color above the light. The sky he was pointing to was the universe.

At this time, accompanied by bursts of roaring sounds, everyone felt a strong airflow from the top. The airflow turned into a strong wind, and everyone saw the ball falling little by little at the apex.

boom

Along with a clearly perceptible ground rumble, the red halo around the huge black sphere disappeared.

"What's in there!"

Eddie looked up to the west blankly. He had already arrived on the roof, but at this time, the entire periphery of the sphere emitted bursts of bright white light. Soon everyone saw that the sphere completely disappeared, replaced by a A vast expanse of white wilderness.

"We are in a completely different era now, with the technology inside and everything outside."

Eddie let go, the wine glass in his hand shattered, and he threw his head back and laughed.

"Don't think that you can really stand in such a castle forever. There is no castle in the city, it is just a castle in the air!"

At this time, Congress announced that it would begin to gradually carry out some construction in 120 districts in the next few years, and the tender documents that have been released, all qualified people can bid within the next three years.

Eddie watched as most of the businessmen and family members who came over began to run in panic, planning to return to his company for a meeting as soon as possible. Everyone knew that this was an opportunity and they must be seized.

This year is a year worth celebrating for most people, because everyone has seen the light of a new era.

During the TV speech, Locke was still talking about something, but everyone changed the channel. Everyone was more concerned about the live news reports that had started in some TV programs.

"Hurry up, you guys."

Olivia stared blankly at some prisoners working on the farm, roared, lit a cigarette and looked at the prisoners quietly.

At this time, a prisoner suddenly fainted and fell to the ground. He was a serious prisoner. At this time, some prisoners roared angrily.

"What on earth did you feed us and what did you eat!"

Voices of dissatisfaction continued to appear, and serious prisoners were blaming these people in Section 11.

boom

Guns rang out and a male section officer fired a shot into the sky.

"Don't want to live? Work."

Olivia, who was sitting in the car, pressed her forehead. She couldn't stand it anymore. She was assigned to the school of subject 11. Now she has officially graduated. She can already work in the prison, such a boring job. She couldn't stand it, and the most important thing was that everyone was saying that Section 12 gave some experimental food to the severe prisoners, causing their health to get worse and worse, and that their bodies were used to conduct harmful experiments on genetic food.

Olivia has seen this kind of situation where she suddenly collapsed while working. She couldn't bear it and wanted to resign, but she couldn't do it for a while because the salary and benefits were really good now. It's 1500.

"Damn it, are you looking for death?"

A squad leader put a gun to a prisoner's head, and he held the muzzle of the gun angrily.

For a time, many people came over to dissuade him.

"What you are doing is worse than killing me with one shot."

"If you have any complaints, go and file a complaint yourself. Do you fucking think I want to come and watch you work every day? If you can't finish today's workload, you won't even be able to fucking eat."

It has emerged that serious prisoners have started a hunger strike. Looking at these exhausted prisoners, Olivia couldn't stand it anymore and stood up.

"Let them rest for 10 minutes, Captain."

But soon the team leader shook his head.

"There's no need to pity these guys, they're asking for it, listen Olivia, the word compassion doesn't apply in prison."

Olivia stared quietly at everything in front of her. The exhausted prisoners, whose anger and unwillingness were their reflections.

At this time, another female team member dragged Olivia over.

"Stop talking, just treat it like you can't see it. The guy who yelled just now, did you know that he violated the mother of a family in front of the children, so the Law Office sentenced him to 50 years."

Olivia stared blankly at the guy who yelled just now. She didn't know what to do for a moment, and she felt a little complicated mentally.

"But in the long run."

"Stop talking, you are serious, come and play a game between us."

Olivia sighed. She always felt that this was not the way to go. Although she had heard of the previous prison riots, so the prisoners were now wearing collars, but this had lost the original meaning of the prison. They would one day After serving their sentence, they can return to society. If these people leave prison with resentment and hatred, they may cause harm to society.

Nowadays, the voice of resistance in the prison is getting stronger and stronger. Even some light-duty prisoners feel that the methods of Section 11 are too cruel, because indeed many heavy-duty prisoners have died one after another in recent years, and everyone agrees that there is a food problem. .

Without the collar, this place would have turned into a sea of ​​blood. Olivia could not imagine that she would spend her entire future here.

Except for guarding prisoners, which made Olivia uncomfortable at times, the working environment was okay in other aspects. The male staff took good care of their female staff, and everyone would get together during holidays, that is, up and down. The level relationship is a bit too strict.

"I have nothing to do with it anymore, Mina!"

Olivia said, and the girl opposite blinked.

"No, Olivia, as long as we work hard, we will have a chance to be promoted. I should at least climb to the position of director officer. I don't dare to think of the position of secretary and section chief."

Olivia smiled helplessly. The only way for them to get promoted is to guard the prisoners without any problems. Every year, there is an annual merit sequence system within the administrative department, which will clearly rank a member of the department every year. Everything done is recorded and then scored by the captains of different teams without knowing their names and ages. The section chief and secretary will conduct spot checks.

As long as the individual's team can complete the day's work on the day when the prisoners are working, it will be considered as passing. If it cannot complete the task, points will be deducted, and if it is exceeded, points will be added.

Because one person fell, the squad leader was very anxious, so he was yelling at the prisoners to let them work.

"Olivia, can you just concentrate and see what you're playing?"

Minai said angrily, and Olivia realized that her character had been killed, and she smiled awkwardly.

"Hey, ladies, do you want to go back to your hometown with me during this vacation? I will entertain you two well."

A male clerk came over with a smile, and Minai put his hand on his chin and asked.

"How do you want to entertain me?"

Olivia's mind was not on this at all. She always felt that this approach was wrong. If one day the collar really lost its effect, the place would be turned into a sea of ​​​​fire in an instant.

But there is really no good way now. Olivia looked at the prison in the distance. If she really wanted to change, she had to climb up. Olivia immediately gave up the idea because she was better than herself. There are too many.

The administrative department is a very fair government, and everyone is aware of this. As long as you are more diligent than others, think more than others, and learn more than others after work, you can climb up and be capable. Those who have no ability can only stay where they are.

It is rare to be suppressed by superiors. If members within the team disagree or even quarrel, the captain will send one of the people involved in the dispute to another team.

Most of the team members cannot be fixedly under the command of a team leader, but are replaced once a year.

"Forget it, I'd better not think about these things anymore, thinking too much is of no use to me!"
