Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Chapter 2358 The night before setting sail (Part 2)

Located in District 47, a nine-story building with a large circular structure is divided into two from the middle. There are two gates of different colors. The one on the left is blue and the one on the right It's red, and even the stairs leading up in the middle are separated by guardrails.

The one on the left is Section 8, and the one on the right is the Law Court. One is the agency responsible for prosecuting criminals and revising the law, the other is the agency responsible for the judgment of the Law Department, and there are lawyers nearby. Associations are the three major legal structures of Brilliant City.

The Law Court is the only institution with independent judgment power that is independent of all political systems and cannot even be controlled by Congress. It represents the judicial fairness of Brilliant City.

The legal system of Brilliant City has gone through 100 centuries of development since the city was founded. It has made little progress amidst the major problems that continue to occur. Jean stood quietly opposite the building. He stood on the rooftop. , it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and he thought of many things.

Scenes of past events emerged in Gene's mind, and he still clearly remembered that extremely bad events had occurred during the construction of this building. This building was built by the Hillman family.

Gene still clearly remembers that the person in charge here deducted workers' wages for a long time. For those workers who dared to resist, the gang members would directly teach them a lesson. The workers were forced to work for more than 15 hours every day. Above, even some sick and disabled workers are not allowed to go home.

Then finally some workers couldn't bear it anymore and started to resist. As a result, many gang members came over that night and killed many workers. In front of the mutants, the power of these resisting workers was weak.

Gene was not in the city at the time. He went out to look for resources for the first time at that time. This matter was not exposed until one day when Gene saw a disabled beggar. Out of a little kindness, Gene gave him a hand. Gave him some money.

Uncharacteristically, the beggar did not accept Jean's money. Jean found it strange. Jean still clearly remembered that the beggar roared angrily, "Even if I will starve to death tomorrow, I don't need you covered in blood." The money of those who are interested in profit.

Jean was shocked at the time. He looked at the beggars moving and crawling on the ground. Jean did not continue to ask any questions. In the early days of city construction, there were too many such people.

In the next few days, Gene would always think of this beggar. He went back and took a look again. The beggar was dead. He died next to a garbage dump. Gene picked up his skinny body and planned to kill him. He went to bury it, but when Jean was disposing of the beggar's body, he found that the beggar's hands and legs were severely fractured, and the hamstrings of both feet had been deliberately severed.

Jean asked the local managers, and they said that the beggar was injured in a construction accident at a construction site, and the construction company had paid a large amount of money.

The Law Court was completed, the people in the city were very happy, and the law began to be promulgated and implemented steadily, but Jean did not forget the beggar, and he finally found the beggar's home.

Jean still clearly remembers that a little girl was dying at home. The beggar was her father. The little girl was extremely malnourished. Jean asked the little girl what happened, but she refused to say anything.

Even if he got medical treatment, it was too late. The little girl could not be saved due to long-term lack of nutrition. Gene still remembers the hateful look in the little girl's eyes before she died.

Jean asked Tang Rao and the others. At that time, they were studying technology and had no intention of managing the city. The management rights were all in the hands of the family.

Jean planned to start an investigation, and Jean easily found out the truth of the matter. Early one morning, he led people to the vicinity of the Law Hall. Many people tried their best to stop him, and some businessmen were even more anxious.

Gene dug up some land in front of everyone, and there were bones underneath. The entire ground near the Law Hall, including the Law Hall, was filled with human bones.

After the incident was revealed, people immediately fled. Jean took action. He screwed off the heads of everyone who tried to escape. Later, during the investigation, shocking things were exposed one after another.

Gene never thought that in just over a year of his absence, such a tragic thing would happen, and such a thing would be covered up by a complete blockade.

In order to scare the monkeys, Jean issued a city-wide arrest warrant. As long as those gang members involved in this incident are caught, they will be killed.

This incident caused great shock in the whole city, but in the end the Hillman family was safe because they all claimed ignorance and the people in charge of the construction resisted everything.

Jean frantically searched for the gang members who participated in this violent incident in the city. After finding them, he did not give them any chance to defend themselves, and directly broke their necks. This simple and crude method won the support of many people. .

However, Jean felt that something was wrong at that time, no matter what aspect it was. After the matter was settled, Jean began to wander around the city. It was also because of this incident that Jean and the others decided to change the management and let the family people have withdrawn from the management system of Bright City.

Many profit-seeking businessmen also paid wages as usual after this incident, fearing no more arrears, and management changes were also in progress.

After the fresh management took office, it seemed that everything should go smoothly, but things still developed in an uncontrollable direction.

How can we make everything better? Law may be the only way.

The Hydera case shocked everyone in the city. This case triggered the second round of legal changes in Brilliant City, and the capital behind it was frantically stirring up the matter.

The huge public opinion was easily stirred up. Jean smiled helplessly and looked at the law court in front of him. At that time, Jean asked five of his first-generation students to make a verdict. He influenced the outcome of the verdict. , put Hydra in jail, in order to calm the anger of the people in the city.

Gene knew very well in his heart that Hydera was innocent because he did not shoot at the beginning, but was forced to shoot after being beaten by several drunken men.

Originally, Jean thought that as long as the incident with Hydera passed slowly and he was allowed to come out, it would be fine. However, Hydera always refused to give in and refused to admit his crimes. In 30 years, Hydera has never surrendered once. .

Recently, Gene has often been thinking that maybe the incident with Hydera at that time reminded everyone that the truth is the means that can pierce all darkness, but it was too late.

Under the superposition of countless lies, the surging public opinion once again came to the forefront, and a referendum to decide whether some people should stay or go began. This referendum was meaningless. Instead, it created a super power for Bright City. question.

Everything began to move in a direction that was no longer controllable, and countless problems emerged. Although the administrative department became more and more efficient in the management of the city, there were always countless problems.

Those things that absorbed everything in the darkness emerged. Half a year ago, Brilliant City came to the edge of the cliff. The last thing Jean expected was Frye.

Gene thought countless times about what he could talk to Fry if he was still alive, or why not go and have a good chat with him while he was still alive.

On the issue of Alpha, Jean wanted to let go countless times, but in the end he repeatedly restrained the city that was about to change and restrained Alpha's determination to change everything.

Jean has thought about some issues very clearly. His origin may have determined that he can only survive in a world where the weak can eat the strong. He knows this principle better than anyone else.

As long as you work hard, this is probably because Gene has numbed himself over the years. He knows exactly what the problem is, but he can't do anything about it.

There were too many things that Jean could do nothing about, but now these things have been solved.

Jean jumped directly onto the street with a smile. When the clerks guarding the door of the Law Hall saw Jean, they hurriedly bowed and saluted. Jean smiled and signaled and walked in.

Gene used to come to this place often, looking at the terms of the revised law, and discussing some legal matters with Heathcote. Then a persistent little girl came here, and the discussion turned into nothing with this girl. End of debate.

When he arrived on the 6th floor, Jean came to the door of Letty's office. She was immersed in dealing with things inside. The governing officers around her were also discussing. Jean did not interrupt them, but went directly to 8 The section chief's office on the first floor.

Heathcote raised his head and looked at Jean walking in with some surprise.

"What's wrong, principal? Come here suddenly."

After Gene walked in and sat down, Heathcote put down what he was doing and made Gene a cup of tea.

"How's the progress?"

Gene asked, Heathcote scratched his head and said.

"It should be almost halfway through. The trade law has been initially drafted. As for the abolition of the expulsion law, there may still be some problems."

Gene nodded. This was the purpose of his visit today. Heathcote turned on the light and shadow screen, which contained minutes of multi-faceted meetings between the three major legal institutions.

The first problem is the current acceptance by the people in the city. Once the eviction law is abolished, it will involve many problems.

"Just try to do it. I am very optimistic about the changes in the city this time."

"Well, by the way, principal, there is something I would like to hear your opinion on."

Gene nodded, and Heathcote pulled out another document.

"Abolition of the Classes of Citizenship."

Gene was a little surprised.

"Have we come this far?"

Heathcote nodded and said.

"I think this may be the only opportunity, the only opportunity to eliminate this unequal system. If it is missed, I think it may be possible in the future."

"Let it go and do it. We won't interfere this time."

Heathcote smiled and nodded.

"That's good. Letty and I have already drafted a lot of things and will propose them at the next city meeting. I hope one thing can be brought up for discussion by then."

"What about Hydra?"

Heathcote nodded.

"Just do it with peace of mind. There is no need to worry about anything. Letting the public know the truth about what happened in Dannian is better than anything else. You have been collecting relevant information on this matter for so many years."

Heathcote hummed.

"I have collected all the evidence. As well as the case that divided the entire city, we must make changes and completely bury the darkness of the past. This time, we are not burying it, but putting it under the sun. , let it disappear naturally."

Gene stood up with a smile.

"I go first."

Heathcote did not hold back, but bowed slightly. He knew very well that Jean had given up everything. The city no longer needed a silent guardian in the darkness. The city had ushered in unprecedented light.

At this time, a person ran in from the door of the room, and Letty looked around.

"Where's Gene?"

"left already."

Letty frowned slightly and asked angrily.

"Why didn't you tell me when he came?"

Heathcote smiled and shook his head. Letty looked at the tea he drank at the table and said with some emotion.

"I don't know when I can see him next time."

Heathcote smiled, walked over and put his arm around Letty's shoulders.

"Let's go ahead and do it, Letty. Mr. Jean has already nodded."

Letty said with a sigh.

"I'll go to the ground floor starting tomorrow to see the situation at the waste treatment plant. After all, it's not good to leave the matter to Yincai alone. Ye Jiao and I haven't been involved in it for a long time."

"Aren't you worried about leaving it to her?"

Letty shook her head.

"It's not that I'm worried, it's just that this matter was originally a matter between the three of us, but now it's hers alone. It's really embarrassing."

"Just treat her to a meal when you're free."

Letty sighed.

6pm

The sun's rays disappeared and the whole city lit up. Gene returned to Rose's shop. He saw Jamie enthusiastically carrying some food to the guests.

"I'm too busy here."

Rose said, and Gene smiled helplessly.

"You plan"

"I just need to stay here and help Rose, Gene. I just ate."

Jean smiled. He had made an appointment with Niya tonight to have a drink together. Jean took out his phone and called Alpha.

But Alfa didn't answer, but responded with a message. She was busy, Niya had called her in advance, and she might not be able to go there tonight.

Jean didn't say anything, but happily jumped to the roof of the building and ran towards his home. Looking at the current city, Jean felt very at ease.

This kind of peace of mind is complete. He has been worried about the situation in the city the past few times he went out, but this time he doesn't need to worry about anything, because the city doesn't need him to do anything anymore.

As soon as he got home, Gene heard a snoring sound. Niya was lying on the sofa in the living room, sleeping. When he got to the kitchen, Gene saw a lot of food. He rolled up his sleeves and started to work. .
