Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Chapter 20 The Hand of Interest

In the desolate wilderness, a large amount of smoke and dust was everywhere, and a group of cars and motorcycles were driving towards the distance. Jean quietly looked at the number of armed forces that had just been counted. There were 145 groups in total, another huge amount. supplies.

Locke had just called Locke and passed on the information. Locke cried and hoped that Jean could continue to talk to these armed forces to reduce the amount of supplies, but Jean ruthlessly refused.

He Min had been asked to go to the east side to observe the situation. Jean was also planning to leave for the east side. At this moment, the phone rang again. Jean found an exposed rock and sat on it, answering the phone.

"Jean, is it really okay? They are going to hijack Sanlian's press conference."

"Believe me, don't reveal it to anyone before I come back. This is for your own good."

Le Xiao hummed, her tone softened a lot, and she hummed a little nervously, but hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"Can't it be solved peacefully? How about I go to Section 2 and deal with it first?"

Before Le Xiao could finish speaking, Gene interrupted her seriously.

"The contradiction has reached the point of being irreconcilable. No matter what you do, it will be useless. Didn't you say before that the rioters do not believe in Congress."

"It's because Congress is covering up Sanlian, Gene. I've been feeling dizzy recently. No one would feel comfortable. I've eaten bad and poisonous food for so many years. Jean, can you tell me which side you are on?" ?”

Jean lit a cigarette and took a long puff, then looked at the dazzling city under the light in the distance.

"Stand with those who are working hard for life under the sun. Okay, Miss Le Xiao, remember what I said and don't tell anyone."

After hanging up the phone, Gene took a deep breath. The cigarette was burning quickly. He exhaled a puff of thick smoke and looked to the east. He bowed slightly, put his hands into his pockets, and placed the butt of the cigarette. The moment it burned out, a smile appeared.

boom

Jean rushed out in an instant, like a blue lightning. In less than a second, he had reached several hundred meters away. The moment he stepped on the ground, flying sand and rocks flew everywhere, and everything on the ground seemed to have been run over by a road, with dents. There was only fine dust and sand.

Through such movements, Jean moves at a speed invisible to the naked eye. Such instantaneous stepping and acceleration are what most mutants can do. Powerful mutants can reach the speed of sound, and Jean's speed at this time It has already exceeded the speed of sound.

Accompanied by bursts of banging sounds and pits on the ground, Jean's body flashed with a layer of light blue light, like an enchanting flame. The moment he encountered an obstacle, Jean's eyes widened. The obstacles turned into dust.

Galloping in such a vast and silent wasteland, Gene became more aware of everything that would happen next. The script had already been written, not what he had written. Section 2 should have noticed Le Xiao's actions, because he As Le Xiao's guarantor, although she has obtained high confidentiality authority on the surface and the threat level has been reduced to 0, the same surveillance authority has also reached the highest level.

As long as she disappears from the tracking surveillance for more than an hour, Section 2 will respond immediately. However, according to what Le Xiao said, after she was kidnapped, she was underground for a day, but Section 2 did not. Any action.

Congress has probably already written a script, intending to expose Sanlian's affairs, and make Sanlian resist all the blame. What Jean had wanted before was to have Sanlian take the initiative to admit its mistakes, and then use the lack of food production to As a certain excuse, we can provide quick and reasonable compensation to minimize the impact on the entire society.

However, contrary to expectations, Sanlian Company may want to continue to suppress the matter. Gene did this to promote the establishment of the agricultural experimental base in the barrier area. Unfortunately, everything went sour because of the resolute uncooperative attitude of the people of Sanlian Company and the resolute uncooperative attitude of the people in Congress. Those guys' calculations.

There was a loud bang, and Jean stopped. A large piece of the ground sunk into the ground, and he smiled with a cold look in his eyes.

A phone rang, and Gene looked at an unfamiliar number and answered it.

"Is it Gene? I'm Qian Jiazhen. Can you come over to the company to talk?"

"Sorry, I'm not free."

Gene decisively refused, but soon there was panic on the other side of the phone, and there were several frightened voices.

"The one-time price is 50 million, Jean. You can help us settle the matter, and we can give you some of the money afterwards."

Gene didn't answer but lit a cigarette and raised his head.

"Is 100 million okay? Gene, I admit that we are blinded by profit, but in the current situation, only you have the ability to solve it. We will hand over the particle-level formula of food, and everything will be done as you say. manage."

Now there was a woman on the phone, Baochun. She was already a little incoherent and didn't know what she was talking about.

"If you had promised me a few days ago, things would have been under control. Your company would have to lose money at most and would not disappear. Now it is too late. When Congress issued the orange alert order, everything was out of control. ”

"Wait a minute, Jean, your words will definitely help. 500 million, we will pay 500 million."

Gene blew out a puff of smoke softly and said the last thing.

"A bunch of fictitious numbers won't change anything."

Gene hung up the phone, looked at the dilapidated town in front of him, and walked slowly over.

The problem that has been suppressed for a long time must have a breakthrough. However, Jean no longer intends to pay attention to this breakthrough. The biggest problem is already on the way to be solved. As long as he interviews more than 80% of the armed forces in the barrier area, for The most threatening point of this urban crisis has been resolved.

Jean had just taken a few steps when a number 00002 called. Jean frowned and was a little reluctant to answer, but soon a string of text appeared on the phone screen.

Hurry up and pick up Jean. If you don't pick up, I won't be polite until you come back. I harass you every day and use different methods of harassment. Have you forgotten? The days I tortured.

"Hello."

"Bastard Jean, you dare not answer my call, do you want to die? You didn't even come to see me and then left. If Lillian hadn't told me secretly, I wouldn't have known. You are so serious. Big bastard"

Gene put the phone away from his ear. After nearly 10 minutes of cursing, all that came from the phone was gasping.

"Drink some water first, lazy boy."

On the other side of the phone was the voice of a young girl named Mo Xiaolan, who was the section chief of the Crisis Countermeasures Analysis and Processing Section of the Second City.

"Jean, let me tell you, I gave you the phone call because of our friendship."

"I know, tell me quickly."

After a while, Mo Xiaolan's voice became thick and gloomy.

"The order from Congress has been issued, but I still want to give you a heads-up. How do you plan to solve it? Everything will change dramatically tomorrow, and Congress will also take your opinions into consideration."

"It's up to you to do whatever you want."

Gene hung up the phone before Mo Xiaolan could continue talking, and immediately set up phone message blocking, but soon other unknown calls and Mo Xiaolan's cursing messages were displayed. Gene threw away the cigarette butt, Turned off the phone.

Killing two birds with one stone, Jean had roughly guessed what Congress was going to do. The rioters had been preparing for this plan for who knows how many years. The city had already been infiltrated, and even many people in the barrier area were preparing to attack.

During the negotiation process with these armed forces, Jean gave them a stern warning, brought up the matter of the agricultural experimental base in the barrier area, and donated materials to them, successfully stabilizing the situation.

This incident can not only dismantle the plan of the rioters organization in one fell swoop, but also solve the long-standing rumors of food problems in the city, leaving Sanlian Company to take the blame, inventory all the assets of Sanlian Company, and let Congress Although it is unfair to many businessmen to make special foods, it is good for people under the sun. This facilitates supervision, because it is likely that a second Triple Company will appear in a few years.

A famous academic work once said that businessmen are a group of profit-seeking monsters. When the profit reaches 10%, they start to be ready to take risks, but when the profit reaches 50%, they can take risks. When the profit reaches 100%, they start to take risks. They dare to trample all laws in the world, and when the profit reaches 300%, they dare to risk the death penalty.

"This time things will be fine this time."

Looking back at the dazzling city again, Gene smiled.

Inside the prison tower

The wise man was handcuffed. He smiled awkwardly and looked at Jewell who looked serious next to him.

"Where are you taking me, Jewel?"

But soon Jewell released the handcuffs of the wise man without saying a word, and while pushing him into a secret room, he stuffed a blade into his pocket in 0.1 seconds. At such a speed, the wise man could not see However, the weak diaphragm in the pocket of the prison uniform made him clearly understand that he was about to die.

In the room, there are several department staff wearing black uniforms with a gold-backed white scale pattern and the word "1" on them. They are the 1st City Management Section. Although they need to hand over to the General Affairs Section, most of the time they hand over to Congress, directly. Responsible for all directives from Congress.

One of the young men smiled and placed a glass of water in front of the wise man.

"Sit down, we're just here to ask you a few questions today."

While he was talking, several people from Division 1 came behind the wise man.

"You don't need to mobilize forces like this. Jewell, you are here. The day Gene came over, I didn't reveal a word about anything deeper than the food issue when I came over. There is surveillance to prove it. I just want to spend my old age in peace."

Suddenly, the person behind him had taken out a black string, and the wise man continued with a sneer.

"If I die here today, Jean will know everything. With his character, do you think some people can get away with it? I helped you indirectly this time, and Jean also solved the core problem brilliantly. The two issues are the antidote and the armed forces in the barrier area. If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try. If you really want to see that monster come back, you can kill me.”

As he spoke, the wise man took out the blade from his pocket, but his neck was soon strangled. His eyes widened angrily. The door to the room opened, and a smell of smoke came in.

"Everyone stop it."

Jewell said that everyone around him retreated.

"You understand Jewell, after all, that guy is a real monster. I will help you keep the secret, but you have to let me live in the upper cell. If Jean discovers a problem, I can give you a solution." Idea, what do you think?"

Jewell sat opposite the wise man, took out a cigarette, lit it and handed it to the wise man. He took a leisurely breath and revealed a sinister smile.

"The monster Jean has stabilized in the past few years. If you are able to subdue him, you don't need to keep me alive. After all, I am the one who knows the monster best."

Jewell nodded solemnly.

"I can trade with you, but you have to find a way after Jean comes back."

At this time, the wise man laughed even more arrogantly.

"At the end of the season, check it out carefully. What he is investigating is very dangerous."

Jewell's eyes widened, he immediately stood up, took out his phone and turned around.

A drop of sweat seeped out from the wise man's forehead, and the fingers holding the cigarette trembled slightly. He survived again, relying on his free acting skills, understanding of the situation, and Gene's death-free medal for some people. Deterrence of people.

"We must find a way to get Jean to take me away, otherwise I will definitely die here."

Just after dawn, Le Xiao was woken up by a rapid knock on the door at 5 o'clock in the morning.

Shi Ke and Mana stood at the door.

"It's time to start taking action. Today is Sanlian's press conference."

Le Xiao was shocked, but when she thought of her mother, she could only nod and start getting ready.

Everything began to burn quietly, just like the rising red sun, the light radiated into the city little by little, and the shadowed corners under the light began to light up.

Outside the building of Sanlian Company in Zhuque South District, it was already crowded with people just after 7 o'clock. More than 500 reporters were present. All media wanted to get first-hand information from here. The security personnel at the door had already formed a human wall. At this time, the crowd in the distance became commotion. Under the protection of the mutants, all the heads of Sanlian Company walked towards this direction, and reporters immediately swarmed up.

Le Xiao was dragged by Mana to walk quickly in the surging crowd, but she still felt a little weak all over.

At this time, Le Xiao saw the three founders of Sanlian Company entering the company building under the escort of security personnel with ashen faces.

“What a God-send.”

Shi Ke smiled coldly, and Mana also laughed. Le Xiao heard early this morning that most of the people in the 3rd Military Section and the 5th Public Security Management Section went to the middle and lower levels. Once the problem breaks out, blood will flow. Conflict is inevitable.
