Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Ivy woke up from a deep sleep and saw a dark shadow appearing in the house. She was not alert. Instead, she sat up straight and pressed the sides of her slightly aching forehead. Just after 7 o'clock, the street lights on the street outside the house were already gone. It lit up, a little dazzlingly.

"Sorry, Ms. Ivy."

The person standing in the corner of the room revealed himself, it was Ran Zai.

"Didn't I already say that his matter has nothing to do with me, so don't come here again."

Ivy turned on the light directly, closed the curtains, stood up and stared at Ran Zai coldly, he nodded with a slight smile.

"I need to contact you urgently at the end of the season. He said he hopes you will do him one more favor for the sake of his daughter."

Ivy smiled bitterly, snorted coldly, and watched Ran Zai walk over with the phone.

The kid in front of me is one of the 20 children that Ivy and Ji Mo took care of more than 20 years ago. At that time, they needed to pay for college tuition, but their family was very poor and could not afford the money, so Ji Mo enthusiastically took over. A quota of 20 students was allocated to support them in the name of their husband and wife.

Just over 10 years ago, after these children graduated, Ran Zai found their home. After that, he often hung out with Ji Mo. He often came over late at night and went to the basement to practice with Ji Mo. Ivy also helped. Practiced a lot at the end of the season.

Although Ivy didn't know what Ji Mo and Ran Zai wanted to do, it wasn't until she heard what Ji Mo did from King Xue that Ivy was shocked. She still didn't understand why Ji Mo did what he did. After finally climbing onto the throne, he left without saying a word, bearing the responsibility of being the most harmful person in the city.

Later, Ivy once suspected Ran Zai, but this kid has been living under the supervision of the administrative department for so many years, and it is impossible to achieve anything. After becoming the section chief, Ivy once read Ran Zai's information and found out. If this kid had done anything, he would have been arrested by the administrative department by now.

"I don't want to say anything to him, and I don't want to ask anything. Just tell him that I'm very disappointed in him!"

There was a bit of anger in Ivy's tone. Over the years, she had worked hard to help Ji Mo. She had been helping him since she was a council member. It was the same when she entered the executive department. In order to let Ji Mo pass For the secretary exam, she spent all night helping Ji Mo take a lot of notes. After Gene helped get some records of people who had passed the secretary exam in the past, Ivy tried her best to help Ji Mo, and Ji Mo also passed the exam smoothly. Passed the secretarial exam.

At that time, both husband and wife were still worried. After all, it would be too difficult to be a secretary, and Gene had no intention of letting Ji Mo become his secretary. Ten years after passing the secretarial exam, the former business section chief was under too much work pressure. , applied for retirement, but was promoted to the position of chief of Section 9 at the end of the season.

During the section chief appointment stage, Ji Mo and Iwei stood out from the directors who passed the secretarial examination and the secretaries of all 12 departments. At that time, Iwei did not compete with Ji Mo, but made an unconditional choice. Withdrawing, Ji Mo successfully became the section chief of Section 9.

In the past six months, in order to help Ji Mo, Ivy has almost abandoned the company's affairs and handed it over to her cousins ​​to manage it. She has helped Ji Mo implement every proposal he proposed.

The phone was still held in Ran Zai's hand. He smiled and looked respectfully at Ivy, who was sitting by the bed, with a sad look on his face and anger on his face.

"I really don't know why I married that guy. He actually suspected that I was having an affair with another man. I worked hard to help him for so many years, but he just patted my ass and left. He didn’t look back, and he didn’t even say the last words to me, haha.”

Ivy covered her cheeks in disappointment, feeling a burst of sadness in her heart.

"Ms. Ivy, only you and your wife know whether the shoes are suitable or not. I'm just an outsider, so I can't interfere. The guy may change, but that's not necessarily the case."

Ran Zai showed a smile as he spoke, and then continued.

"I collected all the evidence of interactions with the creators at the end of the season and submitted it to Section 2."

For a moment, Ivy's eyes widened and she looked at Ran Zai in disbelief. She couldn't figure out what this child wanted to do. He was a very weird child. He would have very vicious ideas from time to time, but he actually did it. But things were fair. Ran Zai gave Ivy the feeling of being extremely black on one side and extremely white on the other.

"Why do you do this?"

Ran Zai sat on the ground, then raised his head and looked at the ceiling.

"Ji Mo has often told me since a long time ago about the fervent thoughts in his heart, hoping to change everything in this city and make the city full of hope and light, because he feels that the city will have no future if this continues. It is said that there is a huge conflict between his ideas and Mr. Jean’s ideas, which is why he interacts with the creators. I actually knew it very early, and I also reminded him at the end of the season, but he was very paranoid. , Ms. Ivy, you should know better than me about this, what kind of man he is at the end of the season."

Ivy lay on her back on the bed, staring at the ceiling quietly.

"He is a man like the sun."

Ran Zai smiled and nodded, then stood up.

"Maybe soon you will know why I did this, Ms. Ivy, I said it a long time ago, I want to be"

Ran Zai raised his head with a smile, slowly raised a hand and pointed at the night sky outside the house.

"A hero of justice is a hero who can light up this darkness!"

Ivy smiled helplessly. At this time, Ran Zai put the phone in her hand and pressed the call button. This old-fashioned phone without a screen immediately made a harsh noise. Ivy sat up straight. He leaned against the bed and looked at the phone quietly. His palms became sweaty for a while.

"No matter what, after all, you are a couple who have lived together for decades, and he is Xiaoqing's father. Just think about it, Ms. Ivy, your marriage is indeed a marriage between the families for the sake of strength. There is no love and even the process is just simple and rough. Yes, but is this man interesting?”

Ivy smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"A complete idiot!"

"Ran Zai, me."

"it's me!"

Ivy sat up straight, holding one hand in front of her, holding the phone to her ear with one hand, and kept rubbing the phone with her fingers.

"I'm sorry, Ai"

"You are sorry for me, you are sorry for your daughter, and you are sorry for Mr. Jean's high expectations."

Ran Zai bowed to Ivy, turned around and walked out of the room and closed the door. The moment he stepped out and closed the door, there was a shimmer on Ran Zai's left cheek, which looked extremely bright, while the right cheek fell into darkness. He His eyes were a little strange, looking a little hollow, but also a little deep, as if he was looking at everything in front of him from another world.

"The world is like this. Caged birds are constantly bound and dragged by the past. So are you, Grandpa!"
