"That's what happened. I hope you can tell Tian'ai later that I'm leaving first!"
2:03 pm
Gene stood up from the chair, and Hawke looked at Gene with a solemn expression. What happened made Hawke feel a little incredible. Tianai's concern was correct. If Tianai didn't do anything, Tianhen would definitely die.
In the barrier zone.
"That bastard Li Chu."
Hawke cursed angrily. As the foundation stone of the first generation of Brilliant City, he knew clearly what was in the Black Mountain and how those cruel experiments were conducted. Many of the perpetrators were sent by Hawke himself.
Went to the Black Mountain Experimental Base.
Hawke also knew what would happen if things in the research base were leaked. What made him most angry was that Li Chu did not solve the matter himself, but asked people from Section 3 to solve it. In the end, he even wanted to silence him. This kind of
Things have happened many times in the past, but the fact that something like this happened in this era made Hawke feel shocked and extremely angry at the same time.
Jean turned around and started walking, but at this moment, Tian Ai, who was out shopping, had returned.
"Jean, why are you back? Where is my brother? Is he okay?"
Tianai put down the pile of seasonings he was carrying and hurriedly came to Jean's side.
"It's okay, Tianhen is still alive and well, Tianai, I still have something to do, so I have to leave first."
Although Tianhen wanted Jean to stay for a while, he still nodded obediently. After watching Jean leave, Tianhen let out a long breath.
"Now you don't have to worry about that idiot brother."
Hawke smiled.
"Well, love, Tianhen is fine. Jean came here specifically to tell you about this. Tianhen will be back in a few days."
Tianai picked up the basket and ran directly towards the kitchen, humming a song.
After Tianai entered the kitchen, Hawke's expression became serious. He knew that Jean came here to tell him the reason for what happened to Tianhen. Hawke did not intend to tell Tianai those things, as long as she knew about Tianhen
Just be fine.
For a time, many things came to Hawke's mind, and the same thing happened again. The answer to whether the barrier zone should continue to exist was already obvious, because the barrier zone was originally decided by the gods after discussing many things.
From the initial process of allowing the criminals to escape into the barrier area and survive through the military personnel at the time sending supplies to the outside world, to later Osman's proposal to distribute a certain amount of food to them, it was just a huge experimental process.
Such a cruel social experiment, in Hawke's view, is very unspeakable. The gods naturally know this. When watching the internal pressure increase day by day, the barrier zone has become the only means to relieve the internal pressure. So
Over the years, the existence of the Barrier Zone has become a tacit understanding among the city's top brass.
The greater the population in the barrier zone, the higher the output value of liquid food in the city. The supply chain in all aspects will only continue to expand, so that many workers can be fed continuously and the city can rely on the barrier zone to continuously create more people.
Value comes, and the economy will continue to grow because of the existence of barrier zones.
In terms of medical treatment, they began to conduct large-scale drug experiments in the barrier area, as well as monitor and treat some special diseases in the barrier area, including performing autopsies on their corpses and a series of measures. The medical treatment in Bright City improved in just ten years.
In the past few years, it has achieved unprecedented development, and the price of medical treatment has been greatly reduced because of the existence of barrier zones.
The prison has also reduced too much pressure because of the existence of the barrier area. The barrier area must continue to exist, even if it threatens the safety of the city. Nowadays, Section 3 is no longer criticized and has become the weakest among the 13 departments.
Section.
Early this morning, reports about Section 3 being attacked by armed forces in the barrier zone have been rampant. Many actual combat scenes have appeared, and the reports almost uniformly repeat the dangers of the barrier zone.
The biggest purpose of this operation is to rectify the name of Section 3. This is what Hawke sees. In the future, there will not be too many voices to oppose some actions of Section 3 and reduce the funding of Section 3. Section 3 can be justified.
Take all actions.
It is also true that several districts near Montenegro in the north are always harassed by criminals. The voices supporting Operation 3 are almost overwhelming. This is what Hawke least wants to see. Those real voices have been suppressed by the huge
Public opinion was covered up, just like the referendum that year, so the barrier area began to experience explosive growth in population after the referendum.
Feeding so many people with the cheapest food, and extracting high value from these people at the bottom, is what capital is very willing to see, and it is also an important link in urban development.
No one can easily change all this. Hawke once asked Jean why he didn't stop it, but Jean didn't answer, because Jean also knew that if there was no barrier zone, there would be big problems in the city.
Everyone chose to stand from the perspective of the city when making the final decision. This is what Hawke has seen over the years. All the people in the management team chose the city. Although Niya was an exception, Niya was the only one who chose the city.
This approach cannot last forever, and she can only choose gray between black and white.
From the standpoint of the society of the times, it is just and reasonable to stand on one side of the city, because the city is the barrier for human survival. If there is a problem in the city, human beings will not be able to survive, and the development of the city will stagnate.
Not moving forward.
The development of cities is inevitable. Hawke knows the most fundamental reason. The planet is dying day by day. In the end, the entire planet will turn into dust in the universe. Before the planet is destroyed, humans must develop into a planet.
Civilizations that are capable of living in the universe will then go to the vast universe to find the next habitat.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hawke knows that he will not be able to see this day, but now the entire human society is working hard for the continuation of the human race. This is
Hawke looks pathetic.
Hawke clenched his fists. Everything has entered a chain of cycles. No one can solve it. Even if Jean travels around every day to solve some problems, this chain of despair is still going on.
Dragging it along will one day drag the city into the abyss.
A new round of crisis in the city has quietly approached. The second aging society in the city is about to come. In the first time, because there was no restriction on population fertility and the loss of a large number of labor forces, there were no big problems in the city. But now
It’s different now. Although the decades-long population and birth control policy is gradually opening up, the urban crisis is quietly approaching.
The city still has 20 years to go. If a relative population balance cannot be reached in these 20 years, the city will collapse again.
"You don't have much time left Gene!"
2:19 p.m.
Gene jumped on the window edge of Locke's private rest area and opened the window directly. Locke, who was taking a nap, suddenly woke up and his face immediately became ugly.
"Don't you know how to take the main entrance?"
"Then why don't you go to the office and work?"
Locke sighed, stretched and stood up. At this time, Gene turned on the light and shadow screen and walked to Locke.
"Little Fatty, please help me submit this bill to Congress."
When Locke blinked, Gene had already walked to his personal storage cabinet.
"Can you be polite?"
Jean took out a bottle of wine and drank it by himself.
Locke read a bill passed by Jean, which was a bill for the population return to the barrier area, with a quota of 1,000 people per month, and a review mechanism set up at four guard stations, with 250 people at each guard station.
People who have lived in the barrier area for more than three years are eligible to return to the city. Priority is given to children and people who can still generate value, but the premise is that people without major criminal records have been refined in many places. Locke is very
I almost finished reading it.
"What did I think it was? Why do you suddenly want to submit a bill? You won't go there yourself?"
Gene took a sip of wine, stood up with a smile, drank the entire bottle of wine, turned around and jumped onto the window edge.
"I'll leave it to you, little fat boy."
Locke sighed. Seeing that Gene was about to leave, Locke asked.
"Did the march to the barrier zone go well?"
Gene smiled and nodded. After Gene left, Locke was a little uneasy. There had been casualties in Section 3, and some casualty reports had been submitted. Then Locke got up and planned to go on a tour.
As soon as I walked out of the private rest area and passed by Michelle's countermeasures room, I heard Michelle's angry voice. The directors and 30 secretaries of the general affairs department in the room all lowered their heads at this time, and all looked embarrassed.
.
"I have said countless times that issues between departments need to be detailed and subdivided. What are you thinking about every day? Call them all back for review. If there is any problem, just tell me and I will go directly to take a look."
At this time, a pair of eyes looked like asking for help. Locke smiled awkwardly and planned to walk in, but Michelle walked over directly the next second.
"Your Excellency, Chief Manager, I hope you can sort out the reports submitted by Section 3 as soon as possible. I will need them in an hour."
boom
Before Locke could speak, Michelle bowed and closed the door. Locke scratched his head.
The current General Affairs Department can be described in two words. It is tragic. Everyone in the General Affairs Department is afraid every day because they don’t want to be reprimanded by the Secretary-General. The same goes for the people who come to the General Affairs Department to handle affairs. Many people in other departments are not.
I really want to come to the General Affairs Department to do some work.
"This doesn't seem to work!"
Locke scratched his head. There was no doubt about Michelle's ability. In just over a month, the General Affairs Department seemed to be completely transformed, and its work efficiency increased several times.
To be continued...
