When Chen Bin was four years old, he mastered the basic situation of the world.

This planet is called Starfish. It is 500,000 times larger than the Earth and has a surface area 6,400 times that of the Earth.

But on such a huge planet, the continent that gave birth to human civilization is not much different from the land area on Earth.

Beyond the land, there is an endless blue ocean.

Compared with the vast ocean, this land inhabited by humans is more like an island, not even an island, just a large grain of sand in the sea.

Small and fragile grains of sand.

Although the grains of sand have been artificially divided into many countries, the differences between countries, regardless of culture, habits or language, are actually very small, and even the skin color is exactly the same.

By the standards of the earth, they are proper yellow people.

But the aborigines here do not have a concept of skin color, and even very little of the concept of a country.

A large reason for the weak existence of the state is the existence of associations, or rather, the existence of superhumans in this world, which seriously affects the domination of violent institutions.

The big fist has the final say, this is the universal principle of the whole universe.

One hundred and seventy years ago, the founders of the association ignored the protests of the five major countries and replanned the continent into seven regions, and set up an association headquarters in each region.

Chen Bin is now in the headquarters of the association in the third district - an autonomous region covering an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 500,000 - although he has already found the information, but when he really steps here, he can feel the strength of the association almost single-handedly.

The regional headquarters of a non-governmental organization is even larger than the average county seat!

Chen Bin was pulled in front of a high-end office building.

In this huge area, there is only this office building with an all-glass curtain wall.

Chen Bin stood in front of the building and looked up.

The June sun pierced him from opening his eyes.

The height is not topped.

It is the fifth tallest building in the world and the only office building of the Association in the 3rd arrondissement.

The association has always been a pragmatic style, it wants to build a high-rise building, and will never decorate luxuriously for the sake of face engineering, let alone deliberately increase the height in pursuit of the world's first false name.

Everything is at the service of demand.

Build as much office space as you need.

A 620-meter-high, 150-storey skyscraper, all used for offices, shows the size of the association.

Chen Bin stopped at the door for a moment, took a photo and sent it to his mother. Then he walked into the office building.

The two beautiful young ladies at the front desk had professional smiles on their faces, and after learning of Chen Bin's intentions, one of the young ladies said, "Is it registration? Please show your admission letter." ”

Chen Bin scratched his head and said, "I haven't received the notice yet, but I have an admission text message and unified inspection information." As he spoke, he showed the young lady the text message on his phone.

The young lady glanced at it quickly: "Can you give me your ID card?" ”

After making the record, the young lady handed Chen Bin a temporary access card.

"Go to 2307 on the 23rd floor to report to Director Zhang. ”

Chen Bin thanked the young lady and took the elevator that is said to be the fastest vertical lift in the world to the 23rd floor.

Personnel.

As soon as I got out of the elevator, the three golden words at the elevator entrance came into view.

The internal structure of the association is similar to that of ordinary listed companies, and the ten subordinate departments include business departments such as R&D department and equipment department, as well as functional departments such as personnel department and finance department.

Following the guidance sign for the registration of new students, Chen Bin quickly found 2307.

This is followed by a series of formalities and processes.

It was more cumbersome than Chen Bin imagined, and four or five contracts were signed alone.

said that it was a contract, but in fact, it was not much different from life and death.

Of course, high risk means high reward. There is a monthly allowance of 50,000 yuan during the trainee period, which is unimaginable in any industry. In addition to this, there are various benefits and privileges, which are not measured in terms of money.

It is no wonder that old people in their seventies and eighties, who are trembling when they speak, and young children who are not yet able to speak clearly at the age of three or four, all agree that membership in the association is the best profession in the world.

Chen Bin agrees with this, provided that the trainees can be discharged from the army at the end of their term.

Next, go to the communication department to record fingerprints, iris, facial information, and whole body information. Then there is the implantation of communication chips that makes Chen Bin the most uneasy.

It's not that he's afraid of pain, in fact, the chip implantation technology association has developed quite maturely, nano-level wounds, millisecond-level implantation time, not only no pain, but even a little itchy.

What he is afraid of is being petty by the association. He was born as a hacker, but the human chip was ahead of its time, and he didn't know anything about the field. He doesn't know if there will be a "back door" hidden in it, and whether there will be a hidden danger of information leakage.

His sad countenance surprised the staff.

"I've been doing this for almost ten years, and you're the first new student to be neither curious nor surprised, but sad and sad. ”

Chen Bin put on his clothes, forced a smile and said: "Maybe I'm more conservative, and I always feel that I shouldn't have this kind of electronic product in my body." ”

The staff was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"You are so young, how can you think the same as the people of the last century. ”

“......”

Although the starfish's technology is more advanced, it is not a century ahead of the earth, right?

Chen Bin couldn't help but complain in his heart. He felt that he, an old soul from a global village, had been despised and insulted by the people of the city.

Coming out of the office building, Chen Bin had to report to the student dormitory.

"It's ......"

There is no end in sight to the formalities and processes, which are the same on any planet.

He hitchhiked into the commuter car.

The benefits of digitalization are numerous: hands-free, efficiency, easy regulation, and more.

But there are downsides.

As soon as he got into the car, he was identified by a monitor overhead.

In this autonomous region, there are almost all the streets and alleys with such a recognition function, and there is nowhere to hide.

For a moment, he was a little at a loss.

He has always been hiding in a dark corner, peeping at others through the screen along the network cable, but now his identity is reversed, and he has become the one who is being spied on.

It's unpredictable.

"Probably because I hacked too many cameras in my last life, God punished me ......"

He thought wildly, and the commuter bus had arrived at the student dormitory.

"Hey!"

As soon as he got out of the car, someone stopped him from behind.

It's a fourteen or fifteen-year-old kid, with a pot lid on his head, a mediocre appearance, a medium height, and ordinary clothes. When he was waiting for the commute, Chen Bin saw him, but adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile, he did not take the initiative to pull the relationship.

It wasn't surprising to be stopped at this moment, because the fart kid was staring at him almost all the way.

"Hello, I've been observing you in the car for a long time, and you're also a new student, right?"

"Ah, yes. My name is Chen Bin, are you?"

"My name is Lu Renlong. ”

"Uh...... What does Passerby A have to do with you?"

Lu Renlong was stunned for a moment and laughed: "Passerby A is also me, my nickname." ”

Chen Bin glanced at him more.

Should I say that this fart kid is simple or stupid, being given such a nickname, and there is actually a kind of proud rush.

Passerby A...... Uncle, isn't this my dream......

"What a coincidence. Chen Bin said, "My nickname is similar to yours." ”

"What's yours?" Lu Renlong looked curious.

Chen Bin smiled: "I'm passerby B." ”
