Ark Harem Project

This visit by the Supervision Department was nominally to review the third special campaign against gangs and evil in Longmen. As one of the few cities in Yan Kingdom where "underworlds" still exist, Longmen has always been in a state of tacit ambiguity between gangsters and the government.To put it nicely, it is called supporting the common governance of representatives, but to put it badly, it is called not enough means to act together.But it is impossible to wipe out all the gangsters. Both Yan Guo and Wei Yanwu know that this is a problem left over from history.

The real gangsters who are purely criminals have been swept away by the Guard Bureau long ago, but the remaining gangsters are in a sense an extension of the government to the lower city.

A considerable number of people in the lower urban area belonged to slums, and the slums were mixed with fish and dragons, and the guards did not dare to go deep into the slums.A large number of black households and infected people mixed in the crowd live in shack areas, abandoned underground facilities, container houses and other places.These people cannot rely on government control, but the underground forces headed by Shu Wang can achieve governance.

Every place has its own rules. The existence of gangsters is not impossible to eliminate, but who will manage the slum population in the lower city after they are eliminated?The censorship of cracking down on gangsters and evil is just an excuse. Wei Yanwu understands that the central government is investigating how Longmen responds to terrorist attacks. If he fails to submit an answer sheet that satisfies Yan Guo, life in the future may not be so easy.

There are not just one or two people staring at the Longmen of "Supreme Autonomy".

The Supervision Department turned around regretfully, "There are more and more idlers in Longmen, those from Ursus and Lateran, only relying on the Guard Bureau and Rhodes Island, I'm afraid they won't be able to suppress them."

On the other side, District 22, Sham Shui Po.

There are no geographical barriers between the lower urban areas, and Penguin Logistics easily sneaked into the urban area closest to the upper urban area by avoiding the eyes and ears of the Guards Bureau.Here is the most famous building complex in Xiacheng District, Sham Shui Po.

"I said before that the rich people in the lower urban areas will live in public housing, but do you know where the most expensive rent in Longmen is?" Shen Yi strolled downstairs in a series of seven-story dilapidated residential buildings in Sham Shui Po, Ignoring the eyes peeping from the shadows.

Everyone here is a charming girl in bright clothes. It is very dangerous in an area like Sham Shui Po, which is already leaning towards the slums, but no hooligans dare to do anything to them.

Because their weapons are exposed at will, whether it is double swords or firearms, these girls carry a company's firepower with them, and no one dares to provoke them in the Longmen where guns are banned.

"Tsim Sha Tsui, or those mansions on the top of Victoria Peak?" Huaihu lowered her head, not daring to look at the people here. She saw eleven canopy beds stuffed in an underground garage of about 50 square meters. The beds are divided into three layers, and there are more than [-] people.

"No, the most expensive place is here." Shen Yi said, "The most expensive place in Longmen is here. The rent for a foot is 10 Longmen coins, and the rent for 9 square meters is 900 Longmen coins. I have lived there before."

When he first entered Longmen, he was the poorest and had no choice but to live in the cheapest place, and of course the cheapest was the "cage house" in Sham Shui Po.

What is a cage house?In a room full of canopy beds, a bed is divided into three or four layers, and you spend money to buy this bed that is less than two square meters.Because a bed is stacked on four floors, the height of the space is so small that people can’t stand up straight, but it is closed and locked with iron nets, which is a home that will not wander the streets.

The bedding and daily necessities in the cage are all a person's belongings.More than 50 people can live in a 200-square-meter room, and the air is mixed with pungent smells such as tobacco, sweat and excrement, and there is no privacy at all.After living for a week, Shen Yi could no longer tolerate this kind of torture environment. He found a restaurant and worked as a mobile chef with his skills, and would rather live in a woodshed.

And this so-called cheapest is also the most expensive. Living alone for a month is very cheap, about 20 is enough, but the space is used to four beds together, which is equivalent to 100 rent per square meter!A 10-square-meter public house costs about 1000 Longmen coins to rent here!What kind of villas and mansions in the core area of ​​the upper city, compared with this unit price, it is as cheap as a free gift!

Capital has always sucked blood from the bottom.

"You said that you have done social surveys and published papers, so have you lived in Sham Shui Po even for a day?" Shen Yi said relaxedly, "Every day when you sleep, you are in the sight of more than 100 people. In the quilt, summer is no exception, resulting in a sour smell of fermentation. To take a shower, you have to go to the public toilet, with a dozen men next to you, and the smell of feces is strong. You cover your nose and catch hot water next to you. Take a bath."

Huai Hu felt nauseous when he thought about it.

"This is the slum, and this is the majority of people in the lower city." Shen Yi said, "In the lower city, there are only a few people like me who dare to stand on the streets of the city, even if they live in a cage like Sham Shui Po, 55% Things that people can't reach. You are a person from the upper city, the most chaotic place in the slums, and the Guard Bureau will not let you have the opportunity to go. There is even malaria there, and there are even unregistered infected people. You did Did it appear in social surveys?"

The buildings in Sham Shui Po are all seven storeys, because this is the place where Longmen was first developed when it was established.That's right, not only is this not an undeveloped area, it's even the place where Longmen first started.But Longmen did not build a central city here, because there are too many people here, and a clean and wealthy city should not have so many low-quality bottom people.So the Shangcheng District began to allocate, and high-rise buildings were built on the ground. The Shangcheng District recruited talents from all walks of life, and absorbed the investment of giant businessmen from all over the place, and quickly prospered for decades.

Nowadays, the houses in Sham Shui Po in District 22 are almost all dangerous buildings, but no one will demolish them, because the population density is too large, and demolition is a huge sum of money impossible for the government to pay, and the 20 residents of Sham Shui Po should pay Where does it go?How to govern?

These things are invisible to Uptowners, and never will be.The cage house in Shamshuipo, which Shen Yi couldn't stand, was a mirage that half of the townspeople could not afford.

Huaihu followed the group of people silently, seeing countless ordinary people in ragged clothes while walking.She was completely at a loss. The downtown area in her memory was a poor and messy place, but it had a lot of character.

In the 24th district, there is Bolan Street, which gradually evolved from Hualiu Street, where the best and most lively night market in Longmen is open; in the 27th district, there is the largest flea market in Longmen, where you can find all kinds of old books and records; even in the 22nd district, there is no shortage I heard that although it is the poorest area in Longmen, there is also Temple Street, which is the favorite of young literary and artistic youths. There are shops full of modern flavors everywhere. You can see the electrical street opening at eight or nine in the evening. It is also a must-see in Longmen tourism. sights.

But when cutting through the excitement on the surface, Shen Yi's statement hit the nail on the head.

Only 45% of the residents can afford public housing, and 55% of them have no place to settle down. They huddle in the corners of the city, in the corners that the Guard Bureau will never arrange tourists to go to. These people are dead and no one collects their bodies .Just like this community in Sham Shui Po, there is an overwhelming stench everywhere. In addition to the stench of life, there is also rot.

Maybe it's the rotting garbage, maybe it's the fermented body odor, maybe... There are weak children and old people who can't survive, and the bodies are thrown in the garbage ditch.

"Ayi, I think your pure heart is just trying to induce, isn't it so hard to go to the downtown area?" Angel Neng said in a low voice, "You deliberately brought people to the slums, aren't there people living in those decent urban areas?"

"Induction?" Shen Yi shook his head, "I won't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. Do you think this is a slum? The people living here at least have shelter from the wind and rain. Some people don't even have the ability to make money. Living in shacks and containers, and a large drainage system. There are pipes for heating the upper city, which can survive a winter, and at least 30 people live in the sewers... How many people are there in the entire Longmen?"

Being able to click her tongue, she never thought that someone would live in such a humble way. Although Penguin Logistics does not haunt the downtown area, it knows nothing about those poor people who are like sewer rats lingering.They have seen children whose parents were shot dead in the Colombian battlefield, and they were at a loss, but it is hard to say that life in war-torn areas and slums...is better or worse.

But misery is not something that can be compared. What Penguin Logistics is more concerned about is that they have camped for so long with Longmen as their main base, only to find out today that this city is far less beautiful than they thought.

"It's just weird, it's clearly a slum, but it's so quiet." Shen Yi looked around, hesitant.

They have already walked out of Sham Shui Po and are on their way to the outer suburbs, which is the front line of the battlefield.The more you go to the edge of the city, the more the poor people gather. Countless low-rise private houses and alleys constitute the characteristic street "shack area" of the slums. This is an undeveloped area, where countless people build reluctant shacks and containers for collective use. Life.

Originally, this place was supposed to be a gathering place for homeless beggars and all kinds of poor people, and it should be in chaos, but at the moment it was silent.

Texas and Laplande became vigilant at the same time, before Shen Yi could speak, Laplande moved his nose and grabbed Shen Yi's sleeve, "Don't go forward, there is a strong smell of blood here. "

Bloody smell?

Shen Yi looked at the low-slung shack settlement, at least a few thousand people camped here, and it was not surprising that there was a smell of blood.But since Laplande said it must be referring to human blood... But this place looks very clean, not like a place where murders have occurred.

"It's not the bloody smell of one person, it's the bloody smell of countless people." Texas also said in a deep voice, "Believe me, my sense of smell is much sharper than that of most of the Lupus, a bloody incident happened here! Not so long ago!"

Countless people!

For some reason, Huai Hu suddenly rushed from an unknown transparent person walking in the end to a dilapidated shack built with oilcloth!Penguin Logistics hastily seized the weapons and followed up, making preparations to deal with the enemy one after another!

But the shacks were empty, and several more were opened, and every shack was empty.

Broken living utensils are still stacked in the shack, and it is obvious that there were people living here not long ago.Shen Yi wanted to guess if there was any event or festival that required the whole people to travel today, but he soon couldn't deceive himself.

Because when he actually stepped into the shack, the smell of blood was so strong that even he could smell it.The ground of every household is wet, someone splashed water here not long ago, it was obviously rough cleaning...the stagnant water in several households was dark red, and Shen Yi knew what it was without thinking...

"Someone killed someone here, and then simply washed the ground..." Huai Hu said in a daze, "The people in the entire shanty town... were killed?"

She is not only a college student, but also an employee of a detective agency, and the truth can be analyzed almost instantly in such a scene.But detectives are just her hobby. She usually takes trivial cases to help rich people find out whether their partners are cheating. She never thought that one day, she would step into a murder scene.

No, this is the scene of a massacre.

"It's just being poor...will you still be killed?" Huai Hu stared blankly at Shen Yi, "Is this the case in the slums? The downtown area... is it like this?"

How could this be the case!Shen Yi's limbs were a little weak, and he thought of some humorous stalks, such as "Longmen will eliminate the poor this year", but he couldn't pull himself up.As a human being, the great fear he felt when he saw the huge death scene made his mind go blank. He didn't know anyone in this shack area, but it was like seeing tons of hair in the gas chamber.
