Annihilation of the solar system

Cao Rui walked into the Yadan Devil City with jagged rocks in the desert again. He walked through the jagged formations of light and dark rocks and couldn't find his direction. Finally, through a gap in the strange rocks, he seemed to see the Populus euphratica forest again.

oasis.

Before he could take a step forward, the wind-eroded rocks around him began to collapse, and even the sand on the ground became as sticky as syrup, and the whole person began to sink. He struggled to leave, but the more he struggled, the faster the quicksand became.

Pull him down hard.

Cao Rui suddenly woke up from his recliner with sweat on his face. The doctor next to him handed over some tissues:

"Director Cao, did you find what you were looking for this time?"

Cao Rui took the tissue, wiped the sweat from his face and shook his head:

"It's still the same. Just as we were approaching the oasis, everything around us collapsed. But this time we were a little closer. Also, the way those strange rocks collapsed was very strange. They looked exactly like the real Yadan rocks.

But when it collapsed, it was like it was made up of countless small pieces, all collapsing from the top downwards."

The doctor nodded:

"This fragmented memory of yours should have been recorded into your subconscious mind with the help of adrenaline before you fell into a deep coma. Our hypnotherapy can help you recall those fragmented memories. But the subconscious mind is difficult to control.

, it may take time to achieve clear memories.”

Cao Rui stood up and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Professor Zhang. Let's take our time."

The professor waved his hand:

"You're welcome, Director Cao, Lao Zhou and I are also very good friends. Come over and try when you have time, and you will always find the fragmented memory you want."

Cao Rui returned to the Secret Service and put his cell phone in the basket at the door of the office. As soon as he walked into the office and sat down, Zhang Jie came in holding a laptop.

"Director Cao, you asked me to keep an eye on the Internet of the national material distribution system. I found something recently, but it's not too abnormal. Come and take a look."

There was a form on the computer. Cao Rui looked at it for a while and said:

"You mean, there is a discrepancy between the food ration stocks in these cities and the registered amounts received?"

Zhang Jie nodded,

"Yes. The errors are beyond the allowable range, but the margin is very small. I searched and couldn't find anything more suspicious, so I'll show you this."

"Is your phone turned off?" Cao Rui asked.

Zhang Jie said angrily:

"Don't worry, I've followed you all the way across the northwest. You don't have any discipline at all, and this computer is not connected to the Internet. Don't worry!"

"According to your table, several super cities headed by Shancheng have this phenomenon, among which Shancheng is the most prominent." Cao Rui said while looking at the computer.

Zhang Jie called up the specific data on the city's material rationing on the computer:

"Yes, and I have verified with the agency responsible for the supply of daily necessities in Shancheng City. Of course, it is not in the name of the Secret Service. Their explanation is that for a city the size of Shancheng, the supply of daily necessities is very large, and the inventory is

It is entered manually. Since the rationing system uses a system, errors are inevitable. Moreover, the excess is very small and should fall within the normal range."

Cao Rui touched his beard and stared at the form on the computer screen for a long time:

"Although a city like Shancheng with a population of 20 million does have a large supply of materials. But because of the large base, the actual amount corresponding to slight deviations is also very large. If this happened in the past, I really would not pursue it. But now

In this case, I think it is necessary to investigate further."

"You mean, this might have something to do with Rain Man?" Zhang Jie asked with raised eyebrows.

"It's hard to tell now. Let's go and have a look. Let the technical department and logistics department prepare the necessary identities for us, and we will put on makeup and set off immediately! The secret was exposed last time in the northwest, but don't worry. The northwest is vast and sparsely populated.

, it is too easy to attract attention when a stranger appears. This time in a densely populated big city, it should be no problem to do a good job of concealment. "

Cao Rui and Zhang Jie came to the mountain city and first investigated several meat warehouses with large entrances and exits as refrigeration equipment inspectors. They found that the actual meat reserves in the warehouses varied even more than what was reflected in the data. However,

They remained silent and visited several distribution stations related to the warehouse in the name of food hygiene investigation.

Back at the safe house, Zhang Jie took the information obtained from the distribution station and circled dozens of names in the middle:

"Lao Cao, look. These are the people whose actual ration amounts are inconsistent with the ration amounts they should receive. This is the actual data from the ration station, and it should be much more accurate than the data I found through the Internet."

Cao Rui took the long list and looked at it for a while.

"These are department managers, directors, university professors, all upper-level people."

"I have analyzed the data, and the extra food rations they receive are all given out as performance rewards," Zhang Jie said.

Cao Rui put the list on the table and checked out a person's name with a pen.

"Look, this person is a workshop director. The data shows that he received a total of 28 kilograms of ribs and 20 kilograms of pork last month alone. You can check this person in the database."

Zhang Jie searched the database on her laptop for a while:

"His wife is a government employee and is also rationed. The child is an adult and is in a scientific research institution in another place."

Cao Rui pointed to the name and said:

"Ask the communications department to contact the factory where he works and ask them to temporarily cut off network communications tomorrow in the name of technical failure. Let's go meet with this delicious workshop director."

Early the next morning, Cao Rui and Zhang Jie came to the factory where the workshop director was located in the name of the production capacity supervision team, and then asked the factory director to recruit the workshop director they wanted to meet.

When the workshop director came to the factory director's office, Zhang Jie almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. He was a slender middle-aged man. His rough hands and withered face showed that he was a technical backbone. Cao Rui

I just exchanged a few words with him and let him go back to his job.

When they returned to the car, Zhang Jie laughed out loud:

"Anyway, I would never believe that he could eat so much meat alone. Moreover, the factory director and workers all reported that the workshop director is an old employee of the factory, and he is down-to-earth and hard-working. It is unlikely that he would use the extra rations to trade other things.

.”

"The data is fake and has been altered by others. The people who took away the extra rations were not the people in the data. These people only looked reasonable enough to take the extra rations from the data sheets. But when they met the real people, they couldn't stand it at all.

It’s time to think about it.” Cao Rui said in a low voice.

Zhang Jie also put away her smile:

"Then who took these extra rations?"

Cao Rui turned the car into an alley:

"Do you remember the group of young people we captured at the beginning of the crisis era? And the three security guards and cleaners you met in the northwest who almost killed you? What kind of behavior did they have?

Similarity?"

Zhang Jie thought for a while:

"They are all from the bottom of society!"

Cao Rui nodded:

"Yes, compared to the upper-class people, the desires of these people at the bottom of society are easier to satisfy, whether directly or indirectly, and easier to control. Moreover, their social circles are narrow and their lifestyles are simple. They are not easy to be seen by outsiders.

Clues.”

Zhang Jie frowned:

"However, the industrial park we went to today alone has hundreds of thousands of low-level workers, and there is more than one such industrial park. How can we distinguish those who are suspects?"

Cao Rui said:

"I speculate that in such a dense crowd, direct control is unlikely. They should indirectly control a group of lower-level workers. However, these lower-level workers also have obvious shortcomings compared to the upper-level people, that is, the details are very complicated.

It’s easy to give clues.”

"Then what are you going to do?"

Cao Rui smiled slightly and said:

"Ask the General Administration to recruit more people, call all the people who can be summoned, dress up as workers, and disperse them to the factory area. You don't need to do anything else, just keep an eye on those workers who went home without serving meals in the canteen when the shift was handed over.

After sharing so much meat, you have to go home and eat it!"
