Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

January 1, 2208

The midnight bell had just struck, and another eye-catching enrollment news appeared on all media. Each of the 32 colleges under the gods is recruiting 1,000 people.

For a time, there was quite a commotion in various places. As more and more students dropped out of school, most people's doubts about the 32 schools with numbers from 1 to 12 were gradually solved.

There used to be rumors that it was a school that would provide high-end talents for all walks of life in the city, so many people struggled to get in more than two years ago. However, the reality is very strange. Many people were dropped out of school and returned. The students said that it was not a school at all.

Today, there are less than 50,000 students in 32 schools, and more than half of them have been eliminated in just 2 years.

Most people who dropped out and returned from school said that going to school there was a waste of time. Although there was salary available, it was pitifully low and the management was closed. The most exaggerated thing was that there were fights and chaos every day. , this is unacceptable to many people, and both men and women must undergo combat training.

Some people dropped out of school with bruises and bruises, and the only content taught was economics, law, and the exercise of power. Many of these things are of little use in the city. The most important thing is that people who study law in school cannot take the bar exam.

This is the reason why many people leave, and the so-called exercise of rights is to learn the regulations of the business department. Although many people know that this is to train the next manager, no one can stand such a cruel teaching environment. Every year Those who fail the exam three times will be immediately expelled from school.

The most unacceptable thing for many students in schools is the relationship between superiors and subordinates. It is very strict. Each type of school has section chiefs, secretaries, and directors to teach, and the students are responsible for the subjects according to the section officers. Teams, and ordinary members are divided into levels.

What is taught in schools with 12 subjects is completely different after the subjects are divided. Many people can't stand this atmosphere and drop out of school after a few months. The overall atmosphere is far away and has no end in sight for many people.

Many students who came out said that it was like a prison. As the students came out, the latest technology used in the school, the concept of light and shadow materialization technology, was also revealed. A large number of families, Businessmen have been asking Congress all day long when they will open up such convenient and high-end technology, but the answers given by Congress are all soon.

This technology has surpassed people's imagination of the future in the city. Any object can be realized through light and become a physical object. As some students said, you only need a piece of permanent toilet paper to go to the toilet. It can be restored to a physical object. All the non-mimetic atoms on the mimic toilet paper will peel off and end up in the garbage disposal.

Even clothes are made of light and shadow materials. You can directly measure a person's surface body data through AI technology, and then get a piece of clothing that fits perfectly. Moreover, the clothes can be easily stored in the light and shadow storage, which can be realized with one click. When changing clothes, you no longer need to wash the clothes. You only need to restore them to the light and shadow storage. All the dust on the clothes will fall off during the restore process.

Some people boldly say that the future will be an extremely convenient era.

"Hurry up! If you can't finish it tonight, you won't have to celebrate the festival tomorrow."

A large number of people from Section 12 are busy carrying out detailed soil resuscitation treatment for a wasteland.

Clark was holding a bottle of wine and sitting on the top of a car, quietly looking at the members of Section 12. Nearly 1,000 members were still busy. Currently, there are 1,911 people in Section 12, which is considered 12 departments. The number of people is relatively large.

However, nearly half of the staff are dissatisfied because their daily work may be more tiring than the prisoners. From the second year of teaching, they came to this land and began to work on it according to the teaching content. Some wastelands are undergoing land revitalization work.

This work of reviving artificial land is extremely complicated. If something is not done well, you will have to start over.

"Section Chief, can you come and help me?"

A female regional officer pouted dissatisfiedly and looked at Clark, who was already drunk on the roof of the car.

"I can indeed help you, but this is your task as a section member, so hurry up. After we are done, we will go back to school to have barbecue, cold beer, and delicious barbecue! You can weigh it yourself."

Clark burst into laughter as he spoke, and some of the governing officers who were patrolling next to him also laughed.

At this time, a car drove over, and Natasha got out of the car, still wearing heavy makeup.

"What's wrong? Are you finished with your work, Miss Secretary?"

Natasha jumped onto the roof of the car lightly.

"The division has almost been completed. The division of more than 1,000 middle boundary towers has been completed. The areas near the food exchanges in the north, west, and south have also been planned. That is where Latis is now. They said they wanted to plan a new prison, but the original prison facilities were too old. Song Man and I discussed it and gave them enough space."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Clark said with a casual look, Natasha turned her head and stared at him with her chin in her hand.

"Something has begun to happen, the prisoners' bodies!"

Natasha said and Clark laughed.

"Don't worry. Since everything is left to us, don't interfere with our actions. Those heavy-duty criminals will be fine if they have some food. There is no need to show any mercy to them."

Natasha still felt a little guilty, Clark said and looked towards the prison with lights on in the distance.

"Tomorrow I will go to the prison in person and talk to Latis and ask her to give us the recent physical data of the prisoners, as well as the type of food each prisoner eats."

Natasha nodded. Although the tragedy that occurred since the last prison riot has been buried, the students who graduated from the School of God all know what happened there. Section 2 has all the information. In the past few years, everyone has learned what happened that night and what the principal did.

This is why Clark was so determined to start supplying experimental food to the prison for food experiments.

"I've always felt that this was inappropriate, Clark."

"What's wrong? Do you remember what the principal said? Those who cross the line are not worthy of sympathy. If they still have some role, they are to make a small contribution to people in the city eating safe and reliable food. This is also It’s the only contribution to those serious criminals.”

Natasha held her chin in her hand, took out a cigarette, and handed one to Clark.

"Your heart is not here at all. What you actually want to go to the most is Section 1."

Clark nodded.

"Indeed, what I want to study most is subject 1, but my grades determine everything from the beginning. When it comes to agriculture, I unexpectedly have a very talented side, and there's nothing I can do about it."

Natasha moved closer.

"Hey, I wanted to celebrate the Chinese New Year this year, do you want the two of us to do it?"

"Please allow me to refuse. Rabbits don't eat grass from the edge of their nest. Although you are very beautiful, I have decided that I will never fall in love or even get married with the girls in the School of God. After all, you are all too smart. If so, After getting married, there will be a long married life. If I do something, it will be easily discovered. I can already think of it."

Natasha sighed.

"You are really narcissistic, Clark, do you think I might pursue you? You are overthinking it. I just said that I want to go to the president's house for the holidays this year. After all, more than two years have not passed. The president gave it to me yesterday. I called, let me inform you all, and if you are willing, you can go directly there tomorrow."

Clark still refused.

"I recently saw a beautiful girl handing out flyers on the street. She looked pretty good. The key is her clumsy feeling. I like it very much."

Natasha was a little surprised, Clark said.

"Don't doubt it. I will confess my love to her tomorrow, and then if possible, I will get married."

Just after 1 o'clock

After Song Man explained everything to a bunch of section staff, he returned to the section chief's office.

"Song Man, how are you?"

As soon as Song Man entered, he greeted several trustees and seemed a little tired. Nowadays, in addition to the school, the prison is also a school for the 11th subject. Nearly 4,000 students will come to the prison in batches to directly conduct on-site training. Inmate Management Internship.

Latis was still looking at some design drawings on a light and shadow screen. This year, the prison will add some sports and entertainment facilities for prisoners in four outdoor areas, such as basketball courts, small football fields, billiards and tabletop entertainment games.

"How about Latis, we can all take a break during the holidays this year. Where do you plan to go?"

Latis smiled and shook his head.

"I plan to go to the market and learn about some materials. You guys can go and have fun for a few days this year."

"But, section chief, most students are saying that prison life is boring and boring. They just guard prisoners and cook for them every day. I estimate that of the 32,000 newly recruited people this year, not many of them will be able to persevere. of."

A director said, and Latis stood up with a smile and planned to go back to the dormitory to sleep. In the past two years, students in Section 12 have been studying the structure of the prison in order to contain the riots like the last time to the greatest extent. The occurrence of vicious events.

But in the end, after conducting various field investigations, it was found that if problems really broke out again one day, there would definitely be another riot in the prison. However, now that there are light and shadow collars, most prisoners are much more honest.

The prison is aging in many aspects. It is unrealistic to build on the existing basis. The only way is to build a new prison, which must be able to fully control all prisoners.

After Latis saw the ears of wheat hanging down one time, he thought of a way. In a high-rise prison, vicious criminals would be locked up on the upper floor, at least 100 meters above the ground. In this way, the only way for them to come down is the elevator, even if they break the wall. There is no way to escape.

"We and you are almost done, don't stay up late."

Latis looked at a bunch of directors who were still playing cards. Song Man also joined them. She walked directly into the office. In a long corridor, many department members were planning to take a rest. When they saw Latis After hearing this, he immediately stood up straight and saluted.

After returning to the dormitory, Latis called Alpha.

"Have you slept?"

"Still working on some cases, what's wrong?"

Latis smiled and lit a cigarette.

"Let me tell you, I won't go there tomorrow."

"Why?"

Latis frowned slightly.

"Alfa, can you stop asking such dumb questions? By the way, Alpha, let me ask you something!"

After Latis was silent for a while, he originally wanted to ask Alpha about giving experimental food to heavy-duty criminals, but he still didn't say anything. Clark had talked with him about this for a long time, and Song Man also supported Clark. How to do it, but currently only people in subjects 11 and 12 know about it.

"That's what you said!"

"Forget it, it's nothing. You should go to bed early Alpha."

Immediately, Alpha's dissatisfied voice came from the other side of the phone.

"You are very strange, Ieratis. Is there anything you can't tell me? Have you got a boyfriend? Then I have to help you take care of it."

Latis laughed.

"That's not the case! I'm going to sleep."

Before Alpha could ask any more questions, Latis hung up the phone. She pressed the sides of her forehead. Originally, she had wanted to discuss with Alpha about letting the heavy-duty prisoners in the prison eat experimental food. These foods There is no safety guarantee. Only after the prisoner eats it and the body's feedback can the experimental food be further improved.

Clark and Latis talked for a long time before, and it seemed that he was affected by the previous prison riot. Finally Latis agreed. Song Man was very supportive of this approach, and other students in Section 11 also supported it.

Nowadays, only people from Section 11 and Section 12 know about this matter. Latis initially wanted to ask Alpha for his opinion. After all, this approach was not very humane.

Latis, who was slightly tired, entered the bathroom. Following the falling water drops, Latis silently looked at the wet floor. The water mist was steaming in the bathroom. She seemed to understand a little bit. What exactly did the gods leave everything to them? mean.

Some things cannot be judged as right or wrong, and can only be defined in the name of order. This vague feeling has existed in school. Looking back on everything in the past, Latis never thought that one day he would stand on A position where you can control the life and death of others.

In such a position, there are too many things to consider, and one decision may be able to change a lot of things. Therefore, after the pilot project began, Latis began to plan to build some entertainment facilities for the prisoners, so that this prison society can have a daily life. There were some happy moments, which may be a way to make up for his conscience. Latis smiled bitterly and shook his wet long hair.

"We're still immature!"

1:16 am

Along with a burst of crying, Avano hurriedly hugged his wife Violet. The wife held a cane in her hand and looked at the messy kitchen with some anger. Several servants said they would clean it up. , Niya, who had just turned 2 years old, was holding the corner of the big table, covering the buttocks that had just been spanked by her mother, still crying, but not crying.

"Is food for fun? Nya."

Violet asked sternly, Niya shook her head, and soon the housekeeper Micah ran over and squatted next to Niya with a smile on her face.

"Let go, I have to teach her a lesson today, otherwise she won't have a long memory."

From yesterday to today, the garden, living room, lawn, and now the kitchen, all were left in a mess by Niya. Her energy and liveliness made everyone in the manor love this cute little princess, and she also had a mouth. Tian, ​​although she can't speak clearly, she likes to call people, and everyone dotes on her.

"Forget it, the child is still young, just wait until the director orders her, let's go."

Avano hurriedly winked at the housekeeper Micah and took his wife out of the kitchen. Not long after the banquet ended, Niya, who was sleeping alone, woke up and went to the kitchen to make something to eat. She was full. Then he started playing unscrupulously.

"Miss, does it hurt?"

"pain!"

Niya grinned and sniffed as soon as she finished speaking, but immediately laughed again. Micah looked around and then said.

"These things are useful. Miss, if you want any toys, you can tell me and I will bring them back for you. And if you do this, it will make many people in the family have a hard time."

Niya looked around. Many people were smiling and didn't think anything of it. Mr. and Mrs. Angus were very good to the family. The servants were quite leisurely most of the time and didn't mind Niya's mischief.

"Hey, I'll put my flaws somewhere else!"

Micah frowned slightly, looking at the playful Niya, she could only pick her up, plan to clean her, and then take her to the madam's bedroom.

Niya has been able to crawl and walk since she was born, and has shown extremely high energy. She is more lively than many children, but sometimes she is too lively, but she has a good heart and will share everything with others.

Violet was brought back to the bedroom by Avano. She was taking off her makeup and planned to take her daughter to bed after Niya finished cleaning. Avano was still trying to persuade her.

"Every child has his or her own nature. Don't you think Alpha was very noisy when he was a child? Why don't you let Mr. Jean do it?"

The couple glanced at each other and stopped mentioning that if this daughter was given to Jean again and she became like her sister Alpha, then the Angus family would really have no heirs.

"There is no moment to settle down. When she gets older, find some art teachers to teach her, musical instruments and painting. You can also take her to do farm work in the plantation, and slowly let her calm down."

Violet laughed, and after a while Micah came in holding Nia who had just taken a bath. Avano kissed his daughter's forehead and took a look at the red mark on her buttocks, and patted it with some distress.

Niya was smiling, but as soon as she saw her mother coming over, she stopped smiling. Soon the mother and daughter fell asleep, but Niya was still uneasy.

"Niya, can you stop being naughty? Girls should be quieter."

But soon Violet felt a small hand reach out to her belly, and she stroked her daughter's back.

"Does it hurt?"

After a while, Niya stopped moving, she had fallen asleep, and Violet laughed. This daughter was more energetic than her sister Alpha, but she felt a little inappropriate when she thought of slapping her so angrily today. .

"You still have to reason with her."

The nights are getting darker and darker, and the streets have become lively this year. All walks of life that were originally stagnant have seen slow growth, and most families have become more comfortable because of maternity subsidies.

"Sir, if you really can't afford to go home, we can take you back."

Several administrators looked at a man who was arguing with someone on the street. He looked drunk. The man laughed with red eyes.

"You guys keep working hard. I just wanted to vent. It's okay now. I'm going to keep playing for a while. I won't cause any trouble."

Many administrators looked at the man leaving in front of them. Although he was drunk, he seemed to be very conscious, so they did not continue to chase him.

Ma Tao looked back at the young administrators behind him and smiled. He was dismissed from his post due to the incident last year and was investigated. Originally, he still had the slightest expectation in his heart, but now this expectation has turned into helplessness. .

33-year-old Ma Tao knows very well what kind of life awaits him in the future. Although he has explained most of the problems, he still has a lot of money in his hand, which can be enough for him to start a small business. But now he is being targeted. However, if it is discovered that he has made improper payments, he is likely to be subject to a second review.

So now Ma Tao can only work honestly in a middle-class restaurant. This is something he has never thought of. Originally, he came from a relatively wealthy family in the middle class. He has never been as miserable as he is now. Now that his parents have passed away, he has left two houses, one of which is rented out. Although life is a bit more stressful, he can still eat, drink and have fun every day.

At this time, Ma Tao saw a few men sneaking around on the street. They looked a little drunk. There was no one to support a woman who was completely unconscious, but she did not look like a drunk woman. She looked excited. As if he was going to rush to the hotel to have some fun, he followed him unknowingly.

"You guys!"

When entering a back street, Ma Tao shouted.

A few young men looked a little panicked. They looked to be in their early 20s at most. The woman being supported was as motionless as a corpse.

"What's up?"

One of them looked at Ma Tao with some dissatisfaction. Ma Tao laughed and curled up in the corner drunkenly.

"If you violate this little girl tonight, it will start in 30 years. If you can bear the consequences, you can continue."

"What nonsense are you talking about? She was drunk and we just sent her home."

One man started to panic, but then the other man turned around angrily and winked at the others, and the five of them continued walking.

"Thirty years is not an easy time. Moreover, collective assault like yours is a felony. It starts with at least 50 years. Think clearly, if she wakes up tomorrow and finds an abnormality in her body and reports it to the police, you will definitely be arrested. , although I don’t know what you gave her, but it can be detected in the body, and an investigation will be inevitable at that time.”

The five people were a little panicked for a moment, and three of them were obviously a little scared, but after the other two said something, the five people still took the girl into the hotel.

Ma Tao sighed, took out the phone, and pressed the number.

In less than 10 minutes, a local management officer arrived with a large number of people.

"Old Ma, this is really a big help. Oh, if it is handled in such a timely manner, it will be a good sign for me at the beginning of this year."

Ma Tao just smiled, and soon the hotel owner and front desk person were handcuffed. For a hotel like them who knew there was a problem but let people check in without asking anything, which eventually led to the crime, it was necessary For those with joint and several liability, the minimum starting time is 3 years.

Soon an ambulance arrived, and several female administrators pulled the girl down who had just been helped up. She was disheveled and unconscious at all. Soon the doctor detected a high level of coma in her blood. Medicine comes.

The five people lay on the side of the hotel with their hands on their heads.

"Now I am arresting you for collective assault. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will become evidence in court. You have the right to call a lawyer, because it involves felony assault and you have no right to any bail! "

The five people looked sad and looked angrily at Ma Tao, who was sitting opposite and still drinking.

Ma Tao smiled. If they haven't committed the violation yet, it may only start in 5 years, but if any one of them can't wait, it will start in 30 years for all five of them.

"Sir, she did it voluntarily, we did not force her, and she..."

One of them wanted to say something more, and the people next to him winked at him hastily, but at this time one of them stood up.

"Please stay down."

The person who got up took his ID card. After the management officer inquired, his expression immediately became serious. One of them was a member of the Hillman family. The name on the ID card was Red Hillman, the current Hillman. Nephew of Eddie, the patriarch of the Mann family.

"Can I go?"

The manager immediately nodded with a smile. Red smiled and glanced at the guys behind him, then glanced at Ma Tao and gestured at him to wipe his neck.

Ma Tao stood up in shock. Several people on the ground immediately said that it was Red's idea and that Red also brought the medicine. In short, everything was put on Red's body. They saw a man in the nightclub. The sad little girl, who was drinking alone, leaned over.

"Old Ma, I should have told you to leave first."

As the manager said, Ma Tao had already stood up and started walking quickly. A small character like him in the Hillman family could not be offended. Soon Ma Tao went home. He knew very well that he had to leave here as soon as possible. OK, otherwise you may suffer retaliation.

"It's really dark, my life."

Red quickly returned to his car, took out his phone, and smiled with a fierce look. This way of having fun in the nightclub was more exciting than going to the body exchange to find women. Red would also Take a video and take it back to other relatives in the family to enjoy.

"If you dare to cause trouble for me, you are seeking death."

Soon Reid dialed the number. After talking for a while, in less than 5 seconds, the person on the phone identified Ma Tao and had formulated a complete plan.

"I want him to die, but before he dies, you have to show me what he looked like before he died."

Red lit a cigarette and smiled grimly.

"Excuse me, Mr. Prometheus."

Red said and hung up the phone. The man named Prometheus on the phone was a problem solver who existed in the family for some time. The patriarch Eddie trusted him very much. Anyone in the family who had problems would be the one to solve the problem. You can go to him to solve it, and it can be solved very well.

Ma Tao ran quickly on the street, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart. He didn't know what would happen to him tomorrow. He knew some of the rumors about the Hillman family after working at the bottom for so many years. Most of the loan sharks at the bottom The financial backers behind it are all the Hillman family, and now that I am being investigated for malfeasance, it is very dangerous.

Suddenly, Ma Tao stopped and took out the phone. He swallowed, and the image of Alpha emerged in his mind. As her immediate boss in the security field, she has been handling many cases over the years, and the management officers have all He was very scared, but when Ma Tao was summoned, he saw Alpha, the woman with a strong aura and her upright eyes.

"Whether it's life or death, we can only give it a try!"
