Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

The crowd surged, and on a huge light and shadow screen, the results of this year's examination of the business department were announced. Some were happy and some were sad.

Among the crowd, there was a woman with a strong figure, wearing a gray waistcoat, with a dirty look on her face. Her lips were chapped, and her strong and thick arms were still stained with dust. Yin Cai looked at the names announced one by one with some disappointment. The only one who doesn't have his own name is the one who publishes the list with a score of 70 or above. Others must go to the information desk next to them.

"What a pity. It was almost 80 points."

Every year, the examinations for the business subjects are such a grand spectacle. The number of people taking the exams is increasing year by year. Some have been taking the exams for more than 10 consecutive years. However, there are no rules for the annual examination questions of the business subjects. They are all based on the city. The question comes from changes.

Yincai, who was just 27 years old, took the professional examination for the first time in her life. She and others rented some materials and studied hard for more than a month before taking the exam directly. The foreman thought she was crazy, but Yincai really came to take the exam.

Yincai is a little disappointed and feels inexplicably in a bad mood. There is no even his name on the bulletin board. The number of people taking the business examination this year is more than 20,000. Although the passing line is 60, it will be adjusted according to the proportion of the number of people taking the exam. After reaching 70, most people were directly brushed off. Only 1,787 people's scores were announced, but they may not be admitted. It also depends on whether the personnel selection officers of each subject organization can take a fancy to them in the interview process.

Yincai was carrying a somewhat worn bag and was about to leave, but she glanced at the information desk next to her and felt a little reluctant because she didn't know how many points she had scored.

"Sorry, I want to check my score!"

Yincai lowered his head, his eyes averted, and shyly licked his chapped lips. The member of Section 5 who was taking a nap in front of him glanced at Yincai.

"Little girl, if it hasn't been announced over there, it's better not to check it out and work hard next year."

Yincai swallowed, feeling a little helpless.

"Go back, little girl."

The middle-aged man saw Yincai's appearance and probably knew her identity. She should be a worker and her body looked very strong. Yincai hummed and turned around to leave.

"Check it for her!"

With the smell of smoke drifting over, Yincai saw a handsome white-haired man wearing a white shirt and holding a uniform from the corner of his eyes, looking at him with a smile.

So handsome!

"I understand, Sir Jean."

The scores came out after a while, and Yincai's cheeks began to burn. She was a little embarrassed. She scored 6 points for power, 3 points for economy, 2 points for law, 8 points for weapons, and 2 points for actual combat. A total of 21 points, ranking 21984th. the last place.

Yincai lowered her head and ran quickly, as if she wanted to escape from here.

"Lord Jean, there is no way a little girl like this can pass. In fact, I am not biased."

Gene smiled slightly, picked up his uniform and started walking.

"Maybe so!"

Pedestrians were flowing on the street, and many people who had passed the exam happily ran out of the gate of Section 5, cheering with their families waiting outside.

Yincai sat in an alley, looking at the mud on her trousers, pressing her forehead with one hand, feeling a little at a loss, and looking at the ground blankly.

"Is this your first time taking the exam?"

Yincai hummed, and Gene next to him squatted down.

"Would you like to try again next year?"

Yincai shook her head. At this time, Gene next to her handed over a little shabby booklet.

"The notes of a stupid student of mine. Where do you want to go, little sister?"

"A place where you can survive!"

Gene put down his notes and walked slowly.

"I hope I can help you!"

Ye Chunwang, who had just entered middle age, was sitting under the big tree in his courtyard, while Jean, who was sitting opposite, was drinking tea comfortably.

"It's pretty good, tea from your private plantation!"

Ye Chunwang sighed, looked at the uniform next to him, and threw it on the ground casually.

"Jean, are you a little too casual in what you do?"

Gene shook his head.

"Xiaoye, this is what I've always done. How about that little girl?"

Ye Chunwang hummed.

"It feels a little better, and I have more smiles. After all, such a big thing can't be easily resolved in a child's childhood. What he did was too rough, Gene."

Gene nodded.

"I can't help it. It started because of me, but in the end it harmed the little girl. Thank you, Xiaoye, for being willing to help."

Ye Chunwang hummed.

"Jean, that child is about to graduate. I asked her for her opinion, but she just said she would just find a place to work!"

At this time, Ye Jiao walked straight in at the entrance of the yard. Gene smiled and waved to Ye Jiao to say hello. Ye Jiao bowed and walked in quickly with her schoolbag in her eyes.

"How about letting her try your department first? Although the agriculture department is also a professional department, it shouldn't be considered as such."

"As I said before, that kid is very scared. Regarding everything in the business department, he will unconsciously avoid it when he sees this uniform. It's just that he has gotten better in the past few years."

Jean nodded without saying anything more. After drinking a cup of tea, he picked up his uniform and held it behind his back. When Jean walked to the door of the courtyard, he glanced back at Ye Jiao's bedroom on the second floor. The curtains moved. He got up, smiled slightly and left.

Ye Chunwang sighed, turned around and walked into the house.

Ye Jiao's heart was beating fast. She would often see this man named Gene coming to her house, and sometimes he would tell her something. But Ye Jiao just listened. In fact, she was quite interested, but she was interested in him. That uniform is naturally repulsive.

"Jiaojiao!"

Ye Jiao opened the door to the room, and Ye Chunwang walked in.

"Do you want to take the professional examination after graduation?"

Ye Jiao shook her head, Ye Chunwang hummed, and sat in front of Ye Jiao's desk, looking at everything neatly arranged on the table.

"I used to be afraid of getting up early and unknowingly developed the habit of lying in bed because at that time I was afraid of the arrival of a new day because I would have to work day and night as soon as I opened my eyes. But later I was not afraid Because there is always a man who comes and drags me out of bed every morning and drags me to the fields.”

"Jean?"

Ye Jiao asked cautiously. Ye Chunwang stood up, walked over and patted Ye Jiao on the shoulder.

"Jiaojiao, go and give it a try. If this continues, are you going to be afraid for the rest of your life? This uniform."

Ye Chunwang pointed to his uniform pants, and Ye Jiao looked a little uncomfortable.

"It was Gene and I who suggested it. Many years ago, he suggested that you take a professional exam."

Ye Jiao shook her head, her eyes a little panicked.

"It's a great thing to turn something you fear into your strength to keep going. Think about it, back then"

For a moment, Ye Jiao covered her head and huddled in the corner of the room, staring at the grid on the floor and counting the numbers in her mouth.

"I'm sorry Jiaojiao, some things will always follow you even if you run away for the rest of your life. Think about it, if you don't understand it, you won't be able to know the essence for the rest of your life! You are almost 30 years old."

"Mr. Pullman, this is truly a wonderful lawsuit. Congratulations!"

There was enthusiastic applause all around. Pullman held the wine glass and smiled and nodded as the guests said their blessings. Letty sat aside and looked at her father with envy.

"By the way, Mr. Pullman, your wife is about to graduate and will probably take the law exam!"

Pullman nodded. At this time, Letty happily dragged her father to a deserted corner.

"Dad, when I pass the exam, maybe we will be rivals."

Pullman shook his head.

"A real rival"

"It's those people from the Law Department. I know it. They are the natural enemies of our lawyers, but they are no match for you, father."

Letty smiled arrogantly, and Pullman sighed helplessly. At this time, Letty noticed a handsome man who was out of place among the guests, sitting alone on the balcony smoking a cigarette.

"Dad, who is that person?"

"Mr. Gene, the chief of Section 13."

Letty laughed playfully.

"Don't cause trouble!"

Pullman's instructions were completely useless to Letty, who was also very happy today. Letty cautiously approached Gene.

"Mr. Jean, are you guys a little too lax about the law?"

"Miss, what do you think is not called being undisciplined?"

Gene asked with a smile, and Letty laughed. Judging from the voice, his expression was that of a talkative person, and there was no bureaucratic atmosphere. Letty simply sat down.

"I often go to listen to the debates at the Law Hall. Most of the prosecutors in the judicial department are evidence-based, but a lot of evidence actually has a lot of loopholes. Lawyers can often find these things and refute them from a sociological perspective. , so I think your approach is too rigid, so you always lose."

Gene pretended to be surprised and looked at the little girl.

"Then Miss, why do you think the law is called law now, instead of using the past law as a fixed noun!"

"Power is higher than law, this is the inevitable result!"

Letty had no fear at all because of the other party's identity, and her head was already spinning. She was itching because she saw how exciting her father's business lawsuit was, so naturally she wanted to find someone to debate and refute the other party. But after returning home, she was embarrassed to speak to many of her uncles. Her father was also busy, and she didn't want to ruin his enjoyment.

However, more than ten minutes later, Letty pointed at Jean with a red face.

"These things are just excuses."

"Then Miss, if these things don't happen, how can we promote the evolution of the law? The evolution of the law is based on the degree of opposition to public opinion from beginning to end, and is completed gradually. After all, this is an effective method that mankind has found for thousands of years. Ways to solve some real problems!”

"you"

Letty was still thinking when Jean stood up.

"It's almost time, miss. I still have to work."
