Chapter 1,378 The Furnace Part 1(1/3)

April 29, 2223
At 10 o'clock in the morning, light and shadow screens were erected on the street, and many people began to stop and watch.
"Good morning, dear citizens, I am the secretary of the 5th Public Security Management Division, Jill!"
On the screen, Jill looked at him with a smile, while many citizens immediately put on expressions of disgust and disgust.
"In response to the recent cases of mutants going berserk, first of all, on behalf of the entire administrative department, I would like to apologize to you all!"
After Gil bowed slightly, he said with a relaxed expression.
"Please don't blame the cases caused by individual mutants on all mutants. Our department has issued a series of relevant physical examination rules for mutants, and most mutants will be tested for their physical alienation genes in the near future.
Through testing, we will definitely investigate effectively and find out the cause.”
In just two weeks, there have been 15 cases of mutants running amok in society. Many people are wondering whether there are problems with the genes of mutants as time goes by, but Congress has always strictly stated that
There is no problem. Recently, Jill, the secretary of Section 5, often gives speeches on TV, but basically the same speech is given every day, and many people are tired of hearing it.
"Sir, you are a mutant!"
A mutant stepped into the store. Just as he was about to enter the store, he saw many people looking at him with strange eyes. He grabbed the bar manager by the collar with some anger.
"What the fuck do you mean?"
There were many people taking pictures for a while. The mutant clenched his fists angrily, but finally let go of the manager. He turned and left the store. At this time, everyone felt as if they were safe and breathed a sigh of relief.
.
In just two weeks, 15 incidents of mutants going berserk have resulted in 39 deaths, 310 injuries, damage to some street facilities, and the collapse of some shops.
There are more and more voices criticizing mutants in society. Many people do not believe in Congress. Many people will stay away from mutants when they encounter them when traveling. Some people are even unwilling to hire mutants because they hire mutants.
People may harm their own business.
Such a consensus cannot be reached overnight, but is a manifestation of the intensification of conflicts between mutants and ordinary people over a long period of time. Some sociologists have called on everyone not to be hostile to each other. Mutants are not scary, but scary ones.
It is the consequences of mutual hostility.
However, no matter what, hostility to mutants has begun to spread throughout the city. For a long time, mutants have had countless conflicts with many ordinary people because of their powerful physical abilities and the ability to use supernatural powers, and they have always suffered.
They are ordinary people. This often happens before the law on mutants has been concretely determined. Ordinary people are afraid of mutants.
When the urban environment began to improve and the crime rate decreased, the mutant law had been basically revised, and mutant people began to be restrained by the law. If they fight with ordinary people, no matter what the reason is, the mutants will definitely be punished.
Heavy penalties.
However, after the city settled down, mutants took away most people's jobs. In order to save labor costs more efficiently, many businessmen only recruited mutants. Ordinary people's grudges against mutants did not happen in a day or two.
This year Congress enacted regulations that cut the income of mutants, and for the first time in history, a majority of the people in the city supported this approach.
"asshole!"
boom
Accompanied by a burst of shattering sounds, the mutant who had just been turned away from a restaurant was refused entry again. He kicked and broke the glass at the entrance of the store. For a while, many people present looked at this in horror.
There was a mutant, and within a few minutes officers from Division 5 patrolling the streets arrived at the scene.
After learning what happened, the mutant was only sentenced to pay 30 yuan for the broken glass and 20 yuan for cleaning fees, including a 50 yuan fine for flagrant vandalism on the street.
"Sir, if you have anything you can't think of, why not come to our business department? We have a lot of places here. Would you like to take you there now?"
The mutant looked at several people from Section 5 persuading him, and felt a little confused, but the next second he turned around and left. He went directly to a snack shop on the street and bought some things casually.
And left.
The Business Department did not regulate this voice, but instead allowed it to go unchecked. For those businesses that refused to allow mutants to enter their stores, they had already violated the Commercial Law, which stipulates that no business may refuse customers entry for any reason that is discriminatory or objectionable.
An order has been issued within the administrative department, requiring all administrative department members to give priority to persuasion when dealing with incidents involving mutants, and try their best to persuade these mutants to join the administrative department.
More mutants choose to endure and endure, because many mutants are quite rational. Many of them know that this is the method of Xingke, and they want to control themselves within the scope that Xingke can control.
But most mutants are unwilling.
10:39 am
Gil had just finished his televised speech. He looked with joy at the specially recruited mutants who had joined Section 5 and were studying in the Acting Section. The only places where mutants recruited by the Acting Section could go were Section 5 and Section 3. Currently, there are 1,398 of them.
Mutants are trained in the School of Acting, and after only three months, they can patrol the streets, and then study while working, waiting for the annual Acting Examination.
The door to the room was knocked open, and Alpha walked in. Gil stood up and pointed at the numbers on the light and shadow screen. Today, more than 30 mutants have registered their information, waiting for review and approval for special recruitment.
"Section Chief, it looks good. I predict that by next year, our 5th Section will have tens of thousands of mutants, so basically there will be no problem in any social conflict cases."
Alpha hummed and sat on the sofa. Jill poured Alpha a cup of tea.
"That's not a good sign Jill!"
Alpha said, and Jill understood what Alpha was going to say.
"Seizing this opportunity to control this dangerous force is our primary goal. Lord Tang Rao has made it clear."
Alpha snorted. This is indeed a good opportunity, but the principle of fairness has been completely destroyed. Originally, Alpha just wanted to rectify the chaotic mutant group and grade these mutants through a notarized examination, but this motion was proposed.
Soon after, it was used by many people, firstly for employment in the city, and secondly to better control the mutant population.
This group, which accounts for less than 1% of the city, has the power to destroy the city. However, they are now experiencing unfair treatment. The examination for rating mutants is still going on, and there are already a large number of mutants.
After taking the exam, you will know your corresponding level.
"Section Chief, do you want to have dinner together later?"
Alpha shook his head.
"I'm going home to eat. I've finished the work at hand."
After saying that, Alfa got up. Recently, Alfa always drives the helicopter home to eat. He is not in the dormitory at night. Moreover, he has put down some of the work at hand. Instead of completing some work beyond the quota every day, he does it every day.
Looking for new problems to solve, the entire 5 subjects are now easier than ever.
Jill could see that Alpha had begun to change.
"By the way, Jill, have you found the person I asked you to find this morning?"
Jill nodded.
"Of course the section chief has been waiting below for a long time and is now helping with the exam."
Alpha pressed his slightly dizzy head, and Jill was a little surprised, because this was not like the usual Alpha who would forget things.
"Tell him to come up."
Alpha, who originally planned to leave the headquarters and go home early, returned to the section chief's office. After she sat down, she just turned on the light and shadow screen. On it was a dense collection of information about members of the administrative department. Alpha had recently been checking the information of all members of the administrative department after work.
, watch them one after another, and for those who are capable, Alpha will record them.
Finally, after searching around, Alpha sensed something strange. The clerk named Tamai, whom Alpha had met several times in the past, had held many positions within Section 5, and had recommended many people to the position, and these
People are quite capable.
dong dong dong
"Come in."
"Business department number 05025854289, currently the captain of the 21st local team in District 118, Tamai is here to report, Lord Alpha!"
Alpha nodded and motioned for Tamai to sit down. He sat on a chair nearby, looking a little nervous. Alpha smiled and stood up and walked over, handing him a cigarette.
"District 16 currently only has acting regional officers. Are you interested in joining District 16?"
Tamai was a little surprised for a moment, and just as he was about to get up, Alpha pushed him back to the chair.
"Relax, I'm just looking for a simple chat with you."
Tamai became a little embarrassed. Indeed, he was very scared because the secretary asked him to come directly without notifying him of what was going on. Recently, Tamai had been very close to some people from gambling establishments in District 118.
But Tamai only went out to play with his girlfriend Baleka, and he had good relations with many local people. He felt that maybe because of this incident, he might be dismissed.
"You have promoted a lot of people in recent years, and they have done a good job in many areas."
Tamai doesn't know what Alpha wants to do, but the 5 subjects have been loosened a lot recently. Because Alpha has changed, the 5 subjects are not as efficient as before. This is Tamai's most intuitive feeling.
"Why don't you recommend yourself?"
Alpha asked. Tamai thought for a while and then lowered his head and put his hands on his legs into fists.
"I have no talent, Alpha-sama."
