Hula

Ran Zai quietly turned the pages. In a room full of books, the books were piled up so high that there was no room to stand. A sheepskin-wrapped book that had been specially treated was nearly 50 centimeters long. Ran Zai continued to turn the pages.

This underground library under a cemetery somewhere is Ran Zai's paradise since he was a child. The air is filled with the smell of dust and books. This is the smell that Ran Zai likes most, the smell of books.

There are not many places in the city where physical books can be found. There are only a few in the art district, but most of them are books that can only be sold after being strictly examined by the Operations Department. However, paper books are much more expensive than virtual e-books. Most people buy a physical book home for decoration.

World Destroyer

Ran Zai flipped through the book that recorded many warnings, including many famous quotes from thinkers, writers, and powerful people. However, Ran Zai's favorite was the words of the World Destroyer. Who exactly he was, Ran Zai didn't know, but he was more like a prophet and a warning.

Most of the World Destroyer's words were about the future, resources, environment, universe, etc., as well as the fundamental inferiority of human beings.

Everything is just as the World Destroyer said. In the future, if human beings want to break through the current level of technology, they will definitely try to enter the taboo area of ​​life, clones and AI. Human thoughts will undergo drastic changes in the era when the social structure has been reached.

Nowadays, the social structure of Brilliant City has reached the current level of human social technology, and it is difficult to make great progress. The domino effect and butterfly effect brought about by the application of a technology are unpredictable.

Ran Zai suspected that this large-scale disease was provoked by AIs, but he could not find any evidence.

Picking up the wine glass on the book next to him, Ran Zai took a sip and shook the ice in the glass. He liked this feeling very much, spending some time in this piled sea of ​​trees.

"Perhaps chaos will come before leaving the city."

Ran Zai put down the wine glass, knowing very well that this disease could not be solved by the current medical level of human beings, and only AI could do this, but how did they do it?

After closing the book and drinking the wine in the glass, Ran Zai got up. At 3 a.m., he found a corner to sleep, pulled a blanket over himself, and turned off the light

"Name!"

Several directors of Section 3 stood quietly in a room. More than 30 top human behaviorists of Section 2 were watching Zhang Jin tied to a chair through interrogation monitoring. Several members of the special forces stood around. Came was sitting cross-legged in the corner with a cigarette in his mouth.

In several other interrogation rooms, the team members who were found outside the signal area were undergoing the initial round of examination one by one. Most of them did not understand what was going on. The total number of deaths was 75.

Team 144 has not been found yet. Zhang Jin said nothing. According to his age, he is at least 40 years old, but he is only 28 years old according to his citizenship.

It has been two hours, and no matter how the interrogator from Section 2 asked, Zhang Jin remained silent.

"This kind of person will not open his mouth no matter what you ask."

A director from Section 3 said, and an expert from Section 2 smiled.

"Because he is ready to die, he is naturally not afraid of anything. If he does not shoot, he may not be arrested."

Everyone was very anxious. As long as they could get something out of Zhang Jin's mouth, they could immediately arrest and search the whole city, and pull out some rioters in one fell swoop.

At this time, Zhang Jin had figured it out. No matter what means the other party used, they could not find anything related to the creator from his head.

Zhang Jin's memory was forever frozen on the day when the massacre began. At that time, Zhang Jin was just 12 years old. As a member of the boy soldier, his parents were the leaders of one of the nearby armed forces, and he had a younger brother and a younger sister.

Since the day he was born, Zhang Jin has only seen gray and white. He has asked his parents countless times what the place is that is far away from them but can be seen every day.

His parents just told Zhang Jin that the place was where his parents were born, but they were driven out for some reasons.

As Zhang Jin grew up day by day, he gradually realized that all the people in the barrier area were thrown out casually like the garbage in the city.

From time to time, he could see some people from the city's action department coming over, as well as those members of the action department who had mixed into the Altan Ula Mountains. Every time Zhang Jin saw these people, he felt angry.

Zhang Jin didn't understand why, and he hated them deep in his heart. When he was a child, he looked forward to the light coming out of the city, but later these lights were a bit annoying and very dazzling. Every time he saw them, he would feel angry and detached.

On the day of the massacre, everything started with the explosion of the thermal power plant. Zhang Jin never thought it would come so suddenly. The protracted bombing and countless large-scale explosions whistled in his ears. People near the Altan Ula Mountains died without even fighting back. Zhang Jin and his parents hid in the underground facilities.

Originally they wanted to evacuate, but those who evacuated found that they had been surrounded. The troops of the Operations Department were constantly searching for the encirclement and slaughtering them.

His father, mother, brother and sister died one after another. This massacre made Zhang Jin lose everything. There was only endless fear and darkness. He originally thought that as long as he had a gun in his hand, he could fight back and wait for the Operations Department to come.

Everything was in vain, even the beggars were shot.

What did we do wrong!

Zhang Jin was thinking about this question all the time, but unfortunately there was no answer. Maybe it was birth, or maybe not. He finally saw some hope. The days near the Altan Ula Mountains were the happiest time for Zhang Jin. Looking at the revived land, crops were planted, and the people around were full of hope.

Zhang Jin's ears were rumbled from time to time, with a lot of footsteps, crying, and gunshots. The underground facility where he hid with more than a dozen children was finally discovered.

"Sorry! Keep quiet and don't say anything."

In the end, the underground facility was still discovered, but a member of Section 3 who opened the facility announced to the public that there was nothing inside.

With a loud rumble, the house was blown up and the exit was blocked.

One day, two days, three days

Zhang Jin began to wait for death, without hatred or sadness, death was the final destination of the people in the Barrier Zone.

However, with a rumble, the entrance was opened, and a hand with only three fingers stretched out.

"Is anyone still alive?"

The man's voice sounded a little anxious, with a hint of unwillingness and grief. Zhang Jin only remembered that he raised his hand slightly at that time.

The man who saved them was called Frye, the director of a mental hospital in the city. After that, they were secretly brought into the city. Zhang Jin finally saw that this city shrouded in light was really beautiful.

"Director, what should I do?"

"I don't know whether to choose to give up hatred and live well, or to choose hatred. If you think clearly one day, come to Frye Mental Hospital."

Zhang Jin entered an orphanage. Only this place can take them in without being found out, and it seems that no one is willing to take care of the orphanage.

The director was a very kind person, very kind to all the children. New children were constantly being taken in, and Zhang Jin spent a happy time in this orphanage again.

Gradually, Zhang Jin found that this place was actually no different from the barrier area where he lived. The same, even if he could bathe in the sun, he could not get the sun.

Birth determines everything, and the people nearby are the same. Happy life is always short-lived. The orphanage closed down, and the children were either taken away by some middle-level people without children, or continued to stay. Zhang Jin was lucky to be taken away by a middle-level couple because he was born with a good appearance.

At that time, there were only more than a dozen people left in the orphanage. On the day of leaving, Zhang Jin hoped that the couple who took him away would help other people. The deepest impression was a little girl who was older than him, and a boy.

Zhang Jin didn't know what the little girl's name was. He only knew that her name was a colorful note, and the boy always looked gloomy, but they were both good and did not discriminate against him because he came from the barrier area.

Zhang Jin originally wanted to make some money as soon as possible, go back to the orphanage, and help the director and others. However, before Zhang Jin could enter the school, the director committed suicide, and all the children in the orphanage left.

The adoptive parents were very nice and the family was wealthy, but they had no children. After Zhang Jin stayed at home for many years, they finally went through the legal procedures. Zhang Jin also had a name and a new identity and started going to school.

During those years, Zhang Jin would go back to the orphanage from time to time to see and inquire, but there was no news about those children.

In the process of continuous growth, Zhang Jin no longer thought about the past. He accepted the new self a little. Letting go of hatred and prejudice may be the best way.

One day, a girl found Zhang Jin and asked for his help as soon as she opened her mouth, because the girl was also from the Barrier Zone. There was always anger in her eyes. Zhang Jin hesitated and helped the girl.

Once there was a second time, Zhang Jin was a little afraid, because what the girl did was very dangerous, but this naive and optimistic girl never thought that there was anything wrong with what she did.

After helping the girl many times, Zhang Jin realized that they were a group of antisocial elements. Many of them were seriously ill, including the girl. One of them, Zhao Zhen, was the most radical.

At that time, the medical industry was monopolized by the Medical Association. The medical market in the city was in chaos. There were constant demonstrations in the society. Most of the people in this organization had no tomorrow. They just wanted to create a major accident and force the Operation Department to carry out medical reform.

Gradually, Zhang Jin found that he fell in love with this girl, but her body was getting thinner and thinner day by day, and she would die soon. The expensive medical treatment made many people unable to afford it.

Finally, the day of the action came. The girl kissed Zhang Jin goodbye. Zhang Jin was still a little worried and went to the scene, a large medical seminar. Their purpose was to hijack businessmen and people from the Medical Association.

The operation went smoothly, but with the intrusion of the administrative department, the plan failed. Zhang Jin saw the girl lying in a pool of blood with his own eyes, and everyone involved in the operation died.

The news was immediately blocked, and Zhang Jin was taken to Section 2 and signed a confidentiality contract.

Medical reform has finally arrived, but what about the people who died before the reform? What did they do wrong? They just wanted cheaper drugs so that they could afford medical treatment when they got sick. They were not wrong.

"What did we do wrong? We did nothing wrong!"

Zhang Jin raised his head and stared at the interrogator in front of him with a pair of fiery eyes.

"You killed 29 people!"

There was no hesitation in the interrogator's eyes, which were cold and ruthless.

"You can do whatever you want, it doesn't matter anymore. My life will not deviate in any way because of your so-called law and order, and nothing I do will be wrong because of your definitions."

"So you can kill the other innocent people in the squad?"

Zhang Jin shook his head.

"Then you can hold up your guns and trample on innocent lives?"

The interrogator stood up, walked aside, opened a tool bag, put on a pair of boxing gloves, soaked them in a jar of liquid for a while, and then walked up to Zhang Jin.

"Tonight will be long, and so will your life from now on."

boom

Blood splattered, Zhang Jin raised his head, and scenes emerged in his mind. His life was spinning rapidly like a revolving lantern.

"Dean, what did we do wrong?"

"I can't answer this question for you, because there must be right and wrong, and right and wrong are often determined by stance, victory, defeat, and strength. This is the way the world is, and the weak will be trampled and squeezed. , you have done nothing wrong, and they have done nothing wrong, because everyone feels that they are right and only their own actions are correct.”

Zhang Jin screamed at the severe pain all over his body. His body was constantly being hit by fists. Every time the needle penetrated his body, he became more awake and angry.

Just like in the past, no one will feel pity for his own cries. The same goes for those who died, and he will die too.

drop

The first round of torture ended. In just 3 minutes, Zhang Jin's whole body was trembling, blood was seeping out from the capillaries, and the skin all over his body was burning like flames. The interrogator injected him with some body-enhancing drugs. After taking the functional medicine, he temporarily exited the room.

"It looks like he doesn't know what to say, what should I do?"

The interrogator said as soon as he came in. The experts in the room were all the same. Fear of pain was meaningless to Zhang Jin.

"We can only temporarily check on other suspected lurking rioters."

"Please tell me earlier, boy, no matter what reason you have, since you have done it, you are our enemy!"

Kamei threw away the cigarette butt and walked in front of Zhang Jin. At this time, a special operations team member in the corner came to Zhang Jin with some evasive eyes.

"What I say to you now will not help. If you want to survive, tell everything you know."

Zhang Jin froze slightly, stared sideways at the member of the special forces team behind him, and then lowered his head.

At this time, a Section 2 director in the monitoring room saw a document and stood up with a confused look on his face.

"Master Yincai is also from the Luqi Orphanage."

The discussion in the room stopped for a while, and everyone gathered together and looked at Yincai's information. According to the external information, Yincai was just born at the bottom of the family, and there was no mention of her being from a black background.

"what to do?"

Many people in the room were hesitating. At this time, the director of Section 3 took out his phone.

"I will explain to Lord Xima that we are not qualified to let Lord Yincai come directly due to the authority."

Xima, who was directing food distribution in the barrier area, received a call from a director.

"What's wrong? Is there any result?"

Xima held a cigarette in her mouth and her face became a little serious. After a while, she nodded. She held the phone and looked at the light and shadow screen. She hesitated and pressed the number 0006.

"What's wrong, Secretary Xima, is there something that needs to be handed over?"

There was a chaotic sound on the other side of the phone. Section 6 must be very busy. Xima hesitated for a while and then said.

"We captured a rioter who infiltrated Section 3. Because of his relationship, 29 people died. Like you, he was from the Luqi Orphanage."

"who!"

Xima said the name, but Yincai said she didn't recognize it.

"I've checked with his adoptive parents. He was in the orphanage before and everyone called him Black Spot Face."

"I'll go over and take a look."

Xima was a little surprised, but still hummed.

"Sorry."

Yincai, who was in Hospital 118, hung up the phone. Her mood was extremely complicated for a moment. She had just seen Allen yesterday, but today she heard about the black-spotted face. Pressing her pounding heart, Yincai stood up. Come, summoned several directors to come over, and after explaining some things, they directly commandeered a Section 4 takeoff and landing aircraft.

A series of things emerged in Yincai's mind. Yesterday, Allen said that the dean was not dead, and today, Black Spot Face did such a thing. Yincai couldn't figure it out, and what was going on with the weapons and ammunition that were stored in the abandoned facilities under the Luqi Orphanage.

"What kind of mood should I have to face my former friends."

"The Barrier District is not a good place, but this place is not much better."

In memory, Yincai asked Black Spot Face about some things in the Barrier District. Black Spot Face would say this every time. When he asked, Yincai felt that Black Spot Face's tone became a little sad.
