The wind was blowing violently, blowing up a lot of dust and sand, and there was a lot of plastic waste floating in the dust.
Under the gray-black sky, several smiling men with unkempt faces were picking up some paper trash in the wind. Not far away, there was a small town covered in fog in the wind and sand.
"After a while, we can go back in June."
A man with a dark spot on his face said, unhooked his mask, and scratched his unbearably itchy cheek. Several people looked healthy, but they all had varying degrees of dark spots on their faces, and they coughed from time to time.
Voice.
Although several people were picking up the garbage, their eyes would always look at the light in the distance from time to time. The dazzling city shrouded in light seemed like a bright light at any time.
A few people have almost picked it up, and everyone is holding a thick pile of garbage. These things were garbage dumped in the city in the past, but to them who now live in the barrier area, they are like treasures.
The six people all dragged their big sacks and walked towards the town.
Every month when domestic garbage is dumped, they can go there to get supplies and food. They were originally a criminal gang in the city. They made a lot of money by operating casinos and loan sharking. After they escaped,
All the money earned was given to Prometheus, who was the only reliable person.
Supplies and food were delivered to them at scheduled times every month. The six people soon crossed the wind and sand and arrived at the desolate and dilapidated town. This was once a gathering place for humans, and there were many buildings that could be used.
There are a total of 103 people in the entire gang, and currently there are only 61 left. 40 of them died during conflicts with other gangs in the barrier area. In this vast and desolate land, a large number of criminals have escaped. Who
I don't want to go to jail either.
The situation in the city is still the same now, and the intensity of crime investigation has not relaxed at all, but has become more severe than before.
Now they have finally found a place where they can live in the east. Prometheus will send people here from time to time. The latest time they were told that they can set off in May this year and go to the northwest. Arrangements have been made.
They can go back to the city.
This gang has been here for almost three years, and many people have reached their limit. If they don't bathe in the sun, they will really go crazy.
"When we take care of that woman, we can have some fun."
One man said, and several other men laughed. This gang originally had female members, but during a conflict with a gang, all the women were snatched away by them.
In this land, food, water, women, and clothing to keep out the cold are the only things that can be traded, and the weapons in hand are the standards to ensure one's survival.
"What's wrong with that woman? She's crazy."
"It doesn't matter what she does, as long as she is a woman."
A few days ago, these six people picked up a woman who fainted in the wind and sand and brought her back. Everyone was very happy, but the woman looked very weak and was not mentally normal. She was always saying that she was okay.
It's gone, nothing is gone, they are saying crazy things like that nothing is gone under the light.
Everyone knows that a woman is delirious, but it doesn't matter. They all just hope that the woman gets better.
After a few people walked into the town, some people leaning in the dilapidated houses greeted a few people. They took their things to the big house in the middle of the town. There were some machines sent by Prometheus, which could
Some raw materials are processed into wind-shielding tarpaulins.
Plastic and paper can't keep out the cold night, but they can keep out the strong winds.
After the six people entered the factory, they immediately looked at the woman lying on a soft bed beside her. She was still very weak, but she should be able to recover in two weeks at most. Everyone just needed to be patient until the woman recovered.
Just fine.
Every day when the sand blows the most, it is when the city heats up. People in the barrier area basically stay indoors. There are too many harmful things in the sand. Cough and asthma are diseases that everyone in the barrier area will suffer from.
It will be fatal in the long run, but some people have adapted to it, and those who have not adapted have died.
Severe lung infections have developed, so criminals in the Barrier Zone now wear veils wherever they go.

A metal can suddenly stopped in the wind as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Gradually, some figures appeared in the wind. K was holding a cigarette in his mouth and a can in one hand. Behind him were nearly 30 people, all of whom were elites from Section 2.
"Solve the battle within 10 minutes, then go back temporarily today, recuperate for a week and then continue cleaning."
As he spoke, the members of Section 2 dispersed around him, and K slowly walked toward the town that was nearly 1 kilometer away.
Throughout the barrier area, there are large and small gathering places, which are very complicated. We have been investigating for several months, and finally we have identified the gathering places of some criminals. The previous launch of optical nuclear weapons was quite successful, and they were solved in an instant.
Currently under their investigation, there is a large gathering place of nearly 3,000 criminals.
C held a cigarette comfortably and looked at the town in front of him quietly. This was already the 23rd gathering place for criminals. Since they did not plan to return to the city to accept the punishment of the law, there was nothing they could do. In the long run,
In the past, the gathering of criminals will be very harmful to the city.
We can no longer let these criminals go. In the past three years, they have lurked back into the city from the Northeast. Some hungry criminals committed crimes as soon as they returned to the city. This investigation is secret.
Only people from Section 2 know about it, not even the General Affairs Section.
What makes K feel strange now is where they got the food from. After interrogating some criminals, they said that in the middle of every month, Prometheus would deliver food. This past was spread among the people at the bottom.
The name has never been found.
K gradually felt that this guy had a very complete plan, and some of the problems created at the root must be solved directly. These criminals are currently the problem.
Getting closer and closer, K threw away the cigarette butt, with faint red particles floating in his eyes. He looked back at the city in the light behind him and smiled. The moment he turned around, K had already turned his head.
boom
With the sound of a gunshot, K immediately ran quickly. Sure enough, a hidden whistle was placed at the entrance, but the location of the bullet had already exposed the guy's position. K went straight to a dilapidated small building on the right, and the gunshots continued.
rang out, and the whole town was instantly erupted in violent gunfire.
Whizzing
As several red rays of light flashed across, the small building was cut into pieces in an instant. K walked directly past the collapsed small building and rushed directly towards several criminals who seemed to have just woken up. In an instant, their heads were illuminated by the red light.
Dropped to the ground.
The sound of gunshots went from large-scale to sporadic now. K walked past a few people who had fallen on the ground and looked at a long old factory building in the middle of the town, with a large number of tarpaulins covering all sides.
.
The personnel of Section 2 who had surrounded the factory were guarding the surroundings. K walked directly to the door, and in an instant dense and compact firepower spurted out, but all the bullets were in front of K and stagnated in the air.
The iron door was riddled with bullets. K kicked the door open. In an instant, he was surrounded by criminals who raised their hands and put down their weapons. K took out a cigarette from his pocket.
"We don't have the equipment to escort you back!"
"you........"
Wails spread everywhere, the surrounding walls were constantly being broken open, and people from Section 2 rushed in. In just 3 minutes, the remaining 30 people in the factory fell into a pool of blood.
"There were no casualties, Lord K."
K nodded. At this time, everyone saw a very weak woman lying on the bed. They sat up in fear. K walked over slowly. The woman screamed like crazy, got up and ran. K held up the light and shadow.
Using her mobile phone, she quickly compared her appearance and found out that this woman escaped five years ago and was suspected of human trafficking and sold many children as slaves.
The comparison was still going on, and the wanted murderers in each case had been compared. The woman did not run very far, and she had no strength to run. She seemed not to want to die. K exhaled a puff of smoke, and the moment he turned around,
The woman's neck has been broken.
"Okay, let's close the team! Don't have any mental burden. It's just like cleaning up garbage. Just think about it like this."
Among the 30 people, some still looked complicated, but at this time they began to destroy all the equipment in the factory, and then directly took out solid burning objects.
Soon the raging fire was ignited, and K stared at the city in the distance quietly, with a bitter smile on his lips.
"That's all!"
K took the returning members of Section 2 and walked towards the lift not far from the town. During this period, no one said anything and everyone felt uncomfortable.
There are other things going on in the city now, and K plans to go over and assist C as soon as he returns. The poisoning incident in the southern part of the ground floor has not been resolved yet. Although some plumbers have replaced equipment, the pipe problem is still a big problem.
After all, things cannot be hidden. The current water supply can only supply solid water to the public.
Coupled with the current problems in the barrier area, even though security has been strengthened in the northwest, criminals are still coming back to the city from the barrier area.
The situation at the bottom has become unstable due to last year's exposure, coupled with the stagnation of urban construction, it is necessary to minimize the damage before the problem breaks out.
There was a faint red light flashing in front of a place. As soon as K and the 30 members of Section 2 behind him walked over, the lifter automatically removed its optical camouflage and revealed its prototype.
"I'm sorry for having to involve you in this kind of mission."
K said something, and the staff behind him were very quiet. Some of them had already accepted it, while others were still immersed in the incident and seemed very entangled. Everyone got on the takeoff and landing machine, and K directly set the automatic flight, and the two
I will return to Section 2 in an hour.
