Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Going up to the second floor of Harrison's house is a small living room, with the kitchen on the right and a balcony on the left, separated by a partition.

There is a long carved wooden table in the middle of the living room, which can seat 6 people. Six chairs are placed on the wall on the left. There is a sofa directly opposite. The furnishings are very simple, and the convex surface where light and shadow material are transformed The body is on the partition that separates the balcony and the living room.

At this time, there were some dishes on the table, and bursts of fragrance came from the kitchen. Ran Zai came out with the hot dishes. Jean and Ada also came upstairs. Jean walked to the balcony and placed the longevity flowers on the He sat next to a lounge chair and opened the window. At this time, the clown below was riding a unicycle and still playing the accordion with both hands. His body in a special bloated suit was swinging back and forth. It looked extremely funny. Some passers-by watching would give it a thumbs up from time to time. For a small amount of money, most people will only give a few cents to 1 yuan at most.

The average consumption in the Art District is not high, and there are many stylish places. There are many bars in this area. A little further away, there are many painting bars and musical instrument lounges, as well as some small underground venues, mainly some The place for bands and independent singers, art, wine and sex are the three major themes here.

You can see couples everywhere on the street hugging each other and kissing in the street under the stimulation of such an atmosphere and the influence of the situation. There are also many unmanned hotels in this place. The purpose of everyone coming here is to enjoy freedom. Here You can indulge in everything, immerse yourself in the strong artistic atmosphere, and experience the atmosphere of freedom in the neighborhood.

However, this atmosphere will be temporarily cut off by the appearance of uniformed members of the administrative department. This street is only 10 meters wide. Many shops will put some tables and chairs directly out at night, and place some neon lights in the middle of the tables and chairs. Or create some new and interesting furnishings, so the street looks narrower.

"The street is blocked. Please go to a spacious place."

A person from Section 5 squeezed into the crowd and yelled loudly. For a moment, the happy atmosphere created by the clown disappeared. Many people dispersed and pointed, and the clown fell off the unicycle. , and caused many people to laugh. The clerk did not say anything and continued walking on the street.

Tolerating criticism is a compulsory course for members of the administrative department when working in the Art District. There are many young people in this area. Large-scale conflicts and bloodshed have also occurred here. After that, all schools in the university district directly issued bans with the intervention of the administrative department. If students cause trouble here, they will be expelled and will not be accepted by any school, and will be directly put on the education blacklist.

Under such a cruel ban, it was extremely cruel to most people living in the art district. At first, some people tried to take the law, but in the end they were directly expelled. After that, the place was desolate for a period of time.

After that, Niya came over to check the situation in person and defined the severity of many problems. For example, for some minor fights, the school only allowed the school to give a certain degree of punishment. Only when large-scale fights occurred would they be expelled. Gradually The art district has just returned to life, and so far there have been very few fights and conflicts. Even if there are signs, the adults in the store will stop them in time.

"Boss, please pay attention to the bottle problem here and ask the waiter to come and sort it out in time."

The person from Section 5 shouted to a shop before he walked a few steps, and the boss hurriedly came over to collect a lot of beer that had rolled onto the street.

"thanks for the effort!"

Jean said with a smile. The person from Section 5 went away and quickly disappeared on the street. Jean couldn't help but sigh. It was right to let Niya climb to the position of Section 5 chief. In the past, Section 5 was very important to the city. The management was cold and hard, but now it is flexible.

People from Section 5 would patrol the streets day and night, rotating every five hours starting from 9pm. Jean smiled, remembering that Niya had just become a section member, and when she patrolled the streets for the first time, Ji En smiled. En saw the clues, so he kept observing for several days. At that time, there was not so much surveillance. Niya would fool him casually every time and just find a place to sleep using her uniform as a pillow. During the day, she would go to some Killing time in the mahjong room and tea restaurant.

"How long will it take for you to go up like this?"

"Ah? Go up? Can I go up like this? Don't be kidding Gene, I think I will be expelled after a while."

"Indeed, so I plan to ask the section chief to transfer you to the bottom level."

"Are you kidding me? The salary is low, it's dirty, messy, and poor. I can't do it. I'd better make a living by reselling controlled substances. Don't worry about the money, just pay it back."

Niya was still transferred to the area with the worst security. As a result, within a few days, Niya injured people and even smashed up other people's stores because of conflicts with some gangs. Fortunately, 5 Keko was there at that time. Like Jean, he was very optimistic about this girl and took a lot of blame for her.

"Now, he has grown into a person who can carry the city!"

Gene lit a cigarette and turned around. The dishes had been placed and the wine was poured. Ran Zai had already started eating. Harrison looked a little reserved under the light. He was obviously at his own home. Ada Holding a wine glass.

"What's wrong, don't you want a drink? Do you still hate me?"

Ada smiled, Gene sat down, Harrison lowered his head and pressed his hands on his thighs. At this time, Ada took out a wrapped gift from her arms and handed it over.

"Take it apart and take a look."

Harrison finally moved and opened the package. He looked at a faded key inside with some trembling. He held it in his hand and started to tremble.

"Didn't you throw this away?"

Harrison was a little surprised. This key was from the last time he went to find Ada. He used all his savings to buy a house and planned to give the house to Ada, hoping that Ada could go with him. Unfortunately, Ada threw the key directly into the gutter next to it and said it was too shabby.

"When you left, I picked it up again. The house was pretty good. After all, you gave it to me. Then I sold it. When I was down and out, I bought it back. Now I'm giving it to you. Happy birthday Harrison."

Harrison still clearly remembered the day he came to the Art District in despair. When he woke up, he was attracted by the sound of a ticking clock. He walked in and said he wanted to learn, although the old man of the clock shop immediately drove him away, but Harrison kept sitting at the door. The old man finally agreed to Harrison. In the years that followed, Harrison was immersed in the world of watches and came out of the haze, but he never found a girlfriend again in his life. .

"When you're full, come up with me."

Jean said as Ran Zai swallowed a fish ball and was dragged upstairs by Jean. Jean casually took a bottle of ordinary wine.

"Sorry Harrison!"

Ada's cheeks were slightly red, and she took a sip of the extremely fragrant wine. Harrison lowered his head, holding his hands, his little fingers trembling slightly, and there were obvious scars on his fingers. Back then, Harrison was caught stealing something from a gang. After being caught, he was almost beaten to death, and the bones in his hands were smashed. Gene rescued him and took him to the upper level to work as a doorman in an entertainment venue. It was at this time that Harrison saw him. The charming and charming Ada was deeply attracted by her.

"Whatever you were talking about, it's all over."

"Well, I often thought later that if I really followed you back then, I would have been very happy. Now we are all old, and the years I used as a weapon have passed. I am now serving as a district councilor in District 29, If you have time in the future, if you can walk, come and see me."

Harrison's eyes widened. The woman in front of him was still the same as before. She was always the same and beautiful. Harrison tremblingly picked up the wine glass.

On the rooftop, Gene was leaning against the guardrail, holding a cigarette in his mouth. There was only half a bottle of wine left in the bottle. Ran Zai was a little unhappy because he wasn't full yet.

"You did it on purpose, taking advantage of someone else's birthday to deliberately reconcile those two people. Would a workaholic like you take a vacation? It's simply impossible!"

Gene tilted his head and said with a smile.

"It's just a coincidence. It happens to be Harrison's birthday today, and I happen to be on vacation."

Jean looked east quietly.

I don’t know what’s going on with the adolescent kid over there, haha, being young is really good!
