Bionic Era
Chapter 155 River God
The night wind pushed down the dead grass all over the mountain.
In the countryside, you can't see the stars when you look up.
"The executive bureau of the tenth district needs to be cleaned up. It is not a good phenomenon to occupy the position and do nothing."
Lu Wen walked on the mountain road at night, the soil under his feet was relatively soft
"Is it because of the investigation?" Wei Bo'an asked.
"Yes, before me, that aunt has been asked twice, but no one got useful information, do you know why?"
"Because you are rich?"
"No, because they don't have any intentions, they just use it as a form."
Executive board status is well earned.
If you take the initiative to join, you need to investigate the background education, and then the physical fitness assessment. After passing all departments, you can become an intern.
There is another kind.
Recommended by a senior executive, usually a senior executive of level 2 or above.
For example, Lu Wen, who was recommended by Xia Chuluo, many of the review process was just a formality, and he joined the job directly on the same day.
"I found that many young executives in the tenth district lack experience. After taking off their uniforms, they are no different from ordinary people. Could it be that they are all recommended by the old people?"
"You also know that the tenth district has always been said to be a good place to retire..."
Wei Bo'an kicked the gravel on the mountain road with a helpless expression on his face.
"You can apply to transfer a batch of veterans who are about to be discharged from the army, or activate more bionics."
"People who have retired from the army know that the tenth district can't be supported, and they have to go to other districts. As for the bionic man... Vasily has always supported him before. He is the best hunter."
"Is his new body almost ready?"
"Come on, the Xinhong branch is working overtime to catch up."
The back hill of the house where the murder happened.
It is a very short mountain, and you can walk to the top of the mountain along the mountain road in more than 20 minutes.
The dark night made the night forest look more hideous.
The beams of flashlights weave here and there on the low mountain.
Find someone.
The nighttime search lasted more than an hour.
The ambulance that Lu Wen notified in advance is almost here.
"found it."
As the voice of the public channel came out.
Everyone rushed to the halfway up the mountain together.
A very secret place.
Weeds and dead vines cover the sloping mountain.
No one passes by this place on weekdays, the farmland is deserted, and weeds have flooded the original road.
"Bah..."
Lu Wen swung the short knife that popped out from his right arm, and cut off the grass and vines blocking the way.
The hole is just under the withered and yellow vines.
The hole was sealed with wooden boards of different sizes, and there was a rusty iron chain.
"Ding--"
Lu Wen cut off the iron chain with a single blow.
As the most expensive bionic person on the scene, it is more suitable for him to enter this unknown cave.
If something goes wrong, he has a better chance of surviving than other androids.
Remove those planks one by one.
A dark hole.
Just enough to bend over and go in.
"There's a stench, a mix of smells."
Wei Boan leaned over and said.
A beam of light shot out from the strong flashlight in his hand, illuminating the small black world.
Rusty chains.
Dirty bowls.
tattered clothes.
...
Twenty minutes later, Lu Wen carried the skinny body into the ambulance.
Very light and skinny.
Looking at the ambulance going away, the pair of dead eyes kept appearing in Lu Wen's mind.
Years of captivity turned the bright girl into a living corpse.
"Check the missing persons file ten years ago. There is no information about her in my database. It may be that her appearance has changed too much, and the face recognition system has failed."
Facial recognition rarely fails.
The last time it failed was not long ago, when chasing Luo Ruyan.
Luo Ruyan came out of the mall with makeup on, but the system didn't recognize it, all because of Lu Wen's eyes.
Lu Wen sat on the boulder at the entrance of the village, looking up at the gray sky.
It's not over yet.
Countless stakeholders, a bloody industrial chain.
The death penalty in this world has long been abolished. Jiang Xiaonian killed several innocent Li Jian, but they were all sentenced to life imprisonment.
But Lu Wen suddenly hoped that the death penalty could be restored again, and those who trafficked his own kind would be sent to hell one by one.
"It's been less than a month since you started the machine. It's normal to feel uncomfortable when you see this kind of thing. Jiang Xiaonian may have sent you some information, but you haven't seen it with your own eyes."
Wei Boan sat aside, waiting for the news of the missing persons.
"The information Jiang Xiaonian passed on to me is actually from the central city."
"Oh? Does he also want to take down the floating city above the central city?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I've read his information. A pretentious person like him will set many goals for himself. Among these goals, Floating Void City must be one of them... Countless people have claimed to take down Floating Void City."
Those people included Xia Chuluo's father.
Some people think that Xia Tian may be the only one among those people who really has the strength to bring down the floating city.
"Have you ever been to Floating Void City?" Lu Wen asked.
"No, I've stayed in Mowu City all my life, but I've heard a lot about it." Wei Boan said: "In the central city, the earth and the sky are two worlds, and the people in the sky control the people on the ground with absolute rule."
Lu Wen remembered what Duan Tiannan had said to him.
Said that those who are in the sky want to be some kind of symbol, the legendary god.
Those people have been suppressing the development of technology and using bionics to guide people's attention.
In various cities, they suggested cutting the benefits of the bottom, making the bottom forever the bottom, making the bottom lose the opportunity to acquire knowledge, and then annexing the upper class little by little.
What they want is a slave who lives on the ground, not someone who wants to climb up at any time.
"When people become really ignorant, they will believe that there are gods in this world."
This world only needs one floating city.
Those old fellows of the Supreme Council sat on the high hall, looking down at the nine cities on the ground, like watching a group of busy ants.
"There is news." Wei Bo'an said suddenly.
"What did you say over there?" Lu Wen asked.
"The identity has been matched. The little girl who disappeared ten years ago was investigated for a while, but in the end due to the lack of cooperation of the little girl's parents, no valuable clues were obtained, so nothing happened."
"Why don't you cooperate?"
"superstitious."
The old man over there said that your girl was taken away by the river god in the river.
It just so happens that the parents are more superstitious about these things.
Back then, he had been interfering with the progress of investigators, and even deliberately gave some wrong clues.
"River God..."
There are such stupid parents in the world.
No matter what kind of god he is, if he sends a few materialistic missiles, he will have to kneel down.
"I didn't expect that in this era, there are still superstitions, and disappearances are regarded as supernatural events." Wei Bo'an sighed.
"It's unnecessary to believe in supernatural evil power. Human beings are capable of doing any evil thing." Lu Wen looked into the distance.
"Joseph Condela?"
"right."
