Boundary Shattered [Interstellar]

The two did not kneel. .

The mayor looked menacing in appearance, but he spoke in a soft voice, which sounded strange and inexplicably convincing.

His voice spread throughout the street:

"The quest for freedom throughout the empire has begun, starting with the slaves.

We must follow the footsteps of freedom, get rid of the control over our human rights, and get rid of all hidden dangers that can turn us into puppets!

Those who are unwilling to pursue freedom and prefer to be puppets have been expelled by us, and our path of pursuing freedom has already begun!

... Our city will assign each person with a new type of personal terminal, free from the empire's control over their own information.No matter rich or poor, high or low, our city distributes the same model to everyone. "

Tang Chu understood a part of it. It probably means that these people want to distribute a personal terminal that is not made by the empire and does not need to enter personal information to urban residents?

However, as for those "puppets" and "rebels"?

Next, identity terminals were distributed on the street.Sure enough, there is no investigation into the identity of each person, and there is no need to connect the personal chip implanted in the body, it can be used directly.

Tang Chu fiddled with the terminal sent to him for a while, and felt that these strange people, this strange "cult", at least in terms of distributing this kind of personal terminal, did a pretty good job.

But for some reason, Tang Chu felt as if he had seen the terminal in his hand somewhere before.

When the guard of honor of the mayor walked away, the two entered the temporary residence through the back door. Lian Ting held up the terminal and said to Tang Chu:

"Is it the same as the terminal you bought in 'Wind City' back then?"

Tang Chu patted his head violently.

When he and Lian Ting traveled to planet B-7, they found a place called "Wind City".

It was normal during the day, and all kinds of exotic goods were sold on a daily basis, but at night, what was sold were all things that were generally difficult to find in the market, or even impossible to see at all.The identity terminal purchased by Tang Chu is one of them.

Because the identity terminal has always been the only company authorized by the empire to have the right to produce it, it can be regarded as issued by the imperial government.This kind of accessory that every citizen of the empire has is never allowed to be manufactured privately.Of course, because of the identity chip link, no one can make it.

Unless even the identity chip is made privately, even if the terminal is made privately, it cannot be connected to the chip for use. . Even being deprived of civil rights on the charge of "stowaway" and exiled to marginal planets.

Tang Chu spent a lot of effort to find the terminal he bought from the space button, and smiled embarrassedly at Lian Ting, who had been waiting for him for a long time.Lian Ting felt a little helpless, and stretched out his hand to him:

"Space button."

Tang Chu took off the space button and put it in Lian Ting's palm.

Lian Ting said: "Since you have given me its authority, I will return it to you after sorting out the contents."

Tang Chu responded, "Okay!" He scratched his head, his eyes filled with anticipation, "Then to repay you, how about I help you rub your back in the shower tonight?"

"No need." Lian Ting refused, and then took the terminal that Tang Chu just took out from the space button from his hand.

...Sure enough, both the manufacturing method and materials are the same as the terminals distributed by the mayor.

Is there any connection between here...and Planet B-7, or Hefeng City?

Or... the mayor has a connection with Fengshi?

He was stunned for a moment, and Tang Chu asked, "What's the matter?"Lian Ting poked his mental power into the space button, and took out Tang Chu's terminal that he had put in before.

"Monley's communication." Lian Ting glanced at it.

Tang Chu took over the terminal and connected to the communication.There was only the low voice of Yu Yue.

"We...we were captured by that group of people three days ago and detained in a place. The guards were all local residents. The prisoners were divided into two groups. One part was to be publicly executed, and the other part was those of us who were unwilling to give up the products of the empire.' Puppets', deprived of the right to live in the capital city, will be dispatched to outlying cities. Mengli and I are on the way, and it seems that we will arrive at the station soon.... According to what we have learned in the past three days, the capital A change has taken place in the city since a month ago. They believe that the personal chip issued by the empire is something to collect personal privacy, and the personal resume and location linked to the identity terminal are also tools to control the citizens of the empire as puppets. Even... There is a piece of news that I don't know if it is true." Yu Yue over there swallowed.

Tang Chu urged: "Whether it is true or not, just tell us directly, and we will judge."

This time it was Monley who said: "The vehicle that took us to the outlying cities was a vehicle with an old-fashioned carriage, and there were more than 30 people in a carriage. We listened to their conversation and said that the reason why there is such a scene on the B-11 planet The action, in addition to the previous slaves who demanded to change the law, and a mayor of the capital city said that not only civilians are controlled by identity terminals and personal chips, but even nobles are implanted with chips and controlled by the royal family .So they are not afraid of being besieged at all, because no one will refuse to pursue freedom."

The nobles... are being controlled?

Lian Ting said in a deep voice, "What did they say?"

The other side replied: "It's recorded, I'll look for it."

Tang Chu found it unbelievable: "It is inferred that everyone, even the arrogant and arrogant nobles, is controlled by the uniform implantation of personal chips by citizens? Although the citizen chip is indeed too strict, it is undeniable. , if you want to rule such a large territory well, control methods like this are still indispensable."

Lian Ting pondered: "Perhaps the measures taken by the empire are too much."

Tang Chu thought for a while, and agreed: "Indeed. Those nobles... really want the concept of citizens and non-citizens to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and to make an extreme distinction. What are they trying to blur."

At this time, the other party had already sent the recording over.And Tang Chu and Lian Ting had already entered the house, Tang Chu put a layer of protection around the house, and then turned the terminal's voice to the maximum.

In the noisy and messy noise, there are two people talking presumptuously, which is very obvious:

"...Eastern Third District is much better than the capital city anyway, so it's a good idea to go there, anyway, there are no such troublesome revolutionaries."

"If this reform is successful, the East Third District will become the same as the capital city sooner or later."

"But do you think it can succeed? Forget it, what benefits can we gain from fighting against the nobles of the empire and all the people in the empire? Maybe we will leave on the front foot, and their reformation army will be gone on the back foot haha."

"By the way, why is it not allowed to wear an identity terminal? Because we are jealous that we have imperial citizenship?"

"Didn't you hear about the previous incident? When the slaves outside were in chaos, that person took the opportunity to win over the lobby, became the king of the wild mountain, and climbed to the position of mayor. At first he told us that the nobles were about to die. The royal family delegated power because they were implanted with chips that could control life and death, and the control was in the hands of the royal family. Many people were very angry, how could the nobles be treated like this..."

"Is it true? I've heard about it. I didn't come out at that time, so I don't know. If it's true, the royal family has made a big mistake. They are god-given excellent people like the nobles. That's how control of power ... disregards human rights."

"Human rights? They have human rights, anyway, we don't have them anymore? Everyone wants to verify whether the nobles are really controlled, and then that guy, the new mayor, said that the identity chips implanted at birth for all citizens are actually related to control The noble chip has the same function, and with the identity terminal, we can know our location, physical condition, and environment at any time, and even use the system to detonate it remotely!"

"Ah...is it so effective?"

"Of course it's fake. Who knows what the mayor's purpose is, maybe he wants to oppose the imperial rule and the royal family."

"So everyone is required to get rid of identity terminals?"

"Yeah, but how can we listen to their nonsense. Not all people on our planet have imperial citizenship. A mayor who doesn't know where he came from wants us to give up our citizenship? Why don't we just say he wants to?" Want to make us all slaves like that... Tang Chu?"

When Tang Chu heard his name suddenly, he wiped his face deeply.

The conversations of local residents can quickly tell them the local situation.It can be said that every sentence in this recording contains some circumstances, and they need to continue to investigate.

The recording continues:

"... I really don't know what they are doing, what is the meaning, anyway, we just let us go. What to say to get rid of control... I don't think there is any control, the products issued by the empire are treated as garbage and destroyed , it might as well be cheaper and we don’t want to hand in things.”

"It's a pity. There will be corrosive agents sprayed there in the first hour of every night, and it's not easy for us to catch leaks."

"In short, those slaves... Heh, I have to thank the new mayor."

"Aside from slaves, who else would listen to those people..."

The recording is over, and Yu Yue's voice cuts in:

"General, Madam General, I'm here."

Lian Ting looked at Tang Chu, and the two said at the same time, "East Third District."

After the communication with Yu Yue ended, the two lay down on the bed and began to sort out the clues they had obtained.

"I understand." Tang Chu pinched Lian Ting's fingers for a moment, "It's the land where we landed when we arrived on this planet, that city full of rubbish, the new mayor who persuaded the people in the capital city to get rid of the imperial aristocracy. The imperial products discarded under their control. Thinking about where the sense of disobedience is, the Garbage City should have appeared in this month or so, and the things inside are all dated very recently.”
