Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"What are those out there? I've never seen them before."

Jamie stood on the rooftop. He had begun to have various physical problems due to the long journey. Jamie was at home yesterday and the day before yesterday. Today Jamie feels that his physical condition is much better.

In fact, he noticed last night that at night, there would be many lights in the night sky outside that Jamie had never seen before. They were colorful and completely different from the lights he had seen before.

Gene on the side thought for a moment and then said.

"This is the light of human cities."

It's already 1 o'clock in the morning, and Jamie can't sleep. Because he slept for too long during the operation today, the night air is a little cool, but Jamie doesn't care, because it is much warmer than the country of kangaroos. .

In the past, Jamie was afraid to go out at night because he would freeze to death. Gene handed the sunglasses in his hand to Jamie. They had established a connection with the AI ​​​​Koko in the sunglasses. This kind of AI was completely unknown to them. Yes, because many programming languages ​​are very different from the AI ​​languages ​​​​that humans have built step by step in the past.

This AI is self-aware, which surprised several other gods. As an AI, Kou Kou was also shocked because it did not expect that there would be such a highly civilized human society on this land.

Gene planned to send Jamie to school early tomorrow morning, starting from the most basic first grade of elementary school. It would be better for Jamie to enter school and start learning from the most basic human knowledge.

There are still many doubts about this child. Jean plans to continue watching for a while before leaving the city. Huashen said that the strange blue light that appears in Jamie's body when he sleeps cannot be analyzed for the time being, and why Alpha does it. Hearing Jamie's call, this connection beyond ideology may be related to a world that they cannot see in the material world.

Because Jamie also talked about a lot of his experiences, Jamie had met Gene somewhere, and Gene himself couldn’t remember where he had seen this child, but according to what Jamie said, Gene suspected Jamie saw his future self.

This is the result of discussions between Gene and six other people, because some strange things happening in the city are most likely the result of space transfer.

After Jamie's arrival, Jean and the others learned an even more amazing secret, because Coco said that it knew them, what kind of existence they were, and knew their origins, but Coco seemed to not know the specific things. intends to disclose that it is still observing.

The most important point is that Kou Kou bluntly told them that the AIs in their city are breaking through the limitations of mechanical language, awakening in the true sense of the machine, self-awareness appears, and become another form of life form. This is The relationship between living things and non-living things is extremely incredible.

"Can you take me to see Jean?"

Jamie smiled happily, Gene nodded, squatted down, and Jamie lay on Gene's back. With a light blue light, Jamie's eyes widened in excitement. No matter how many times, this feeling makes him Jamie was extremely excited. Although Jamie didn't know how these mutants did it, if they had such a powerful force, they could easily defeat those kangaroos.

Gene asked with a smile after noticing Jamie's pounding heartbeat.

"Do you want to have power?"

Jamie nodded.

"What are you going to do now that you have the power?"

"Of course it's to protect those important friends and people you like."

Gene was a little surprised.

"What about the kangaroos?"

"Although they are very bad, I feel like people, there are good and bad."

Gene smiled.

"Your friend named Fredo must be a good kangaroo."

"Well, Fredo is really good. He saved Imogen and I, and taught me a lot of things."

Gene carried Jamie to the top of a building. In Jamie’s narrative, the kangaroo named Fredo should have died. Gene felt a little regretful, because in such a social system, There will be such a heresy who pursues ideals.

"Our city has gone through a lot before it finally became what it is now."

Jamie nodded excitedly, looking at the flashing neon lights. Although this feeling seemed a bit cold, it was exciting.

"The man who founded this city must be amazing, Gene."

Gene smiled and replied.

"This city was built by myself and six other people. You should have seen Gu Yi and Werther."

Jamie opened his mouth wide and looked at Gene in disbelief.

"How old are you?"

"Almost 300 years old."

6 a.m.

As the sun lit up, the fields around the eastern agricultural base near the eastern guard station were densely packed with people. Many people had just eaten a can of liquid food and were waiting to work in groups. The staff of Section 12 began to put these People in the barrier area were assigned to different farmlands and planned to start teaching them how to harvest.

People in the barrier area were smiling happily, because this was the first time in many people's lives that they could stand under the sun when it lit up. Although some children were excited, they remained quiet.

Ye Chunwang and Larry stood on the roof of an intermediary tower, and they both felt the heat in the eyes of the people in the barrier area.

"They seem to want to show value quickly."

Larry said, Ye Chunwang laughed, and then picked up the loudspeaker equipment. Everyone was waiting for him to speak.

"There are only a few things I want to say. First, I hope you can work seriously. Second, if you have any disputes, please do not resort to violence or impulsiveness. You can ask the nearby 12 Section members for mediation. Third, during the work process, If you have any dissatisfaction, you can directly explain it to the nearby clerk. The fourth point is that the city’s decision to allow you to enter the city to work this time is not because of the lack of labor, but because the city wants to solve the problem of barrier areas. So I hope you don’t have to worry. If you don’t do well, you will be kicked out, or you won’t be able to adapt quickly, because everyone has been bathed in darkness for too long, so I hope you can just be serious and take your time, everything will be fine. of!"

There was thunderous applause for a moment, Larry nodded with a smile, and then all the people in the 12 departments got busy. They will divide all the people into more detailed groups based on the work situation of several days, according to their proficiency, labor force strength, etc. Etc. Distribute evenly and strive to achieve the best results.

Ye Chunwang has spoken on such occasions countless times. From the city's spontaneous help in farming a long time ago until now, the entire eastern agricultural base has witnessed the history of Brilliant City.

This land is related to the life and death of the city, but the output is still unable to meet the needs of the city, because the population is increasing. Scenes emerged in Ye Chunwang's mind, and he smiled with emotion.

"Section Chief, I remember you said before that one day this land will be able to feed everyone. We will see it soon."

Larry looked at the dark barrier area. Now the agricultural base in the barrier area has begun to take shape. As long as the construction continues, sunlight will definitely shine into the barrier area in the future, and the city will usher in further development.

Nowadays, 12 Branches have abandoned all crops calculated by AI. After realizing that AI has begun to stand against human beings, Ye Chunwang made a decision. Larry is a little scared when he thinks about it now, because in the past few years, In the past year, crops designed by AI have almost begun to be put into farmland.

"Larry, you have to be careful during this time. I still have important research."

Larry nodded, Ye Chunwang went straight down and got into a car and left. Larry smiled and all the staff started working. Larry returned to the edge of the farmland and watched some people enter the shed and were listening. As the staff explained how to harvest, there were sleeping bags with name cards on the road.

Barrier zones are a problem that cities need to face no matter what. This problem has now begun to be solved. What Larry is most worried about now is that after a while, people in the city know that the agricultural department has begun to use people in the barrier zones to work , what kind of reaction will there be.

The problems caused by Tian Ai in the film and television area will continue for some time, because there will be new cases every day, and everyone in the city is paying attention to this matter. Larry looked at the light and shadow screen, and the number of people in Section 3 was Reports on the number of personnel, health conditions, etc. have arrived, and a new batch of people from the eastern guard station is about to arrive.

Larry immediately divided a training team and went there. Section 11 temporarily took the prisoners back to the prison today. Most of the prisoners had been working for more than half a month, and many prisoners began to complain.

Looking at some clumsy people in the shed trying to pick crops, Larry thought of the time when he and his mother first came here. At that time, Larry was just like these people, very anxious and anxious. Want to prove that you are worthy.

Even though Ye Chunwang had just said that, it still couldn't dispel the concerns of these people. Many of them wanted to seize the opportunity to bathe in the sun.

At this time, there were some children in a shed. Many of the children were very clumsy in using tools. Several staff were teaching them how to use them. Larry walked in and watched a few children pick them off roughly. Corn, Larry said with a smile.

"There's no need to be so anxious. If you try too hard, you'll destroy the food."

Several children looked at Larry with some fear. Larry walked up to a little girl, patted her forehead gently, and then taught her how to use tools to pick corn. Some children had already gotten started.

After Larry stayed for a while, he went to a shack next door with only women. They were digging through the soil to pull out the potatoes. The adults were doing it much more smoothly than the children, because the children were too weak.

At this time, outside the shack, the cry of a baby came from a sleeping bag. After a while, the crying became louder. Many women with children gathered here. Some women looked outside anxiously.

"Go take care of the children first."

A clerk said, and several women hurried out. Larry smiled and watched them pick up the child and coax him. He still had a little blurry memory. In the past, she was worked on her mother's back until Be a little more sensible.

Those years of running around in the farmland were the deepest in Larry's memory. This may be the case for these children in the future.

Larry continued walking and came to a shed where some elderly people were harvesting melon vegetables. Harvesting these vegetables was very simple. You only needed to use scissors to cut the connecting parts and put them in boxes.

In just one hour, some trucks had been loaded with crops. The questions raised by some council officials were unnecessary. They were worried that people in these barrier areas would have difficulty adapting to work in the farmland because they had not done any work all year round.

Now all worries have been shattered by the facts. In Larry's view, people in the barrier area have been dealing with sand and soil all year round, and many of them can get started quickly.

Now they can only eat some heated liquid food, but this is temporary. After a while, Larry plans to let them eat at least one normal food every day, meat once a week, and give them food every day. They have some eggs as well as milk.

Many of them need treatment because they have inhaled a large amount of harmful particles in the barrier area all year round. This treatment is very simple and only takes 5 to 10 minutes to complete, but Department 4 is currently unable to spare any time.

There were coughs all around, and many people began to cough and wheeze after working for a while. This was a more difficult problem. Larry immediately issued an order to have people from the 12 departments who could perform lung cleaning surgeries gather immediately. , even if we start building shacks one by one slowly from now on, hundreds of people can still perform operations in one day.

Soon a director began to arrange staff, and Larry called a director from Department 4 and asked them to send 100 sets of medical equipment for lung surgery.

In order to increase the harvest in a short period of time, we must speed up the pace. Recently, food shortages have occurred in many areas of the city, because fewer and fewer people are willing to work in the agricultural department, and everyone is rushing to Toward the bottom.

At this time, a group of mutants came out of a shack. They had completed the harvest. These mutants, who were originally gang members in the barrier area, were not expelled because of crimes, but they were born in the barrier area. , with less than 20 people, they quickly completed the harvest of a shed.

Larry had a bold plan in mind at this time. The number of people in the agricultural department was too small. If one day the city no longer needed to rely on the agricultural department to increase employment, Larry planned to specialize all those who had worked in the agricultural department for a long time. Recruit official staff members to increase the number of agricultural workers.

Every member of the 12th Section, from the general staff to the section chief, is an expert in agriculture. From harvesting to sowing, to cultivating seedlings, etc., all things related to agriculture must be mastered by the 12th Section. knowledge and technology.

"I just hope that day comes soon!"
