"What do you mean?"

3 p.m

The scorching temperatures did not dampen the enthusiasm of the workers, and Angus Construction has come to a halt again, and most of the workers have been increasingly dissatisfied lately, and there was a fee during the shutdown that is no longer there, even for those who have signed long-term contracts in the past.

This is located in the middle of the southern 57 district Angus construction company headquarters, the foreman of the nearby construction site led most of the workers over, everyone locked the door of the 12-storey Angus construction company headquarters surrounded, so repeatedly started and stopped, so that many workers are dissatisfied, a month may only start work for half a month, but this month has just started for 13 days, and the work has been stopped.

Some workers have not received their wages for more than 60 days, although Angus Construction has said that it will be settled before May 4 of next month, but it has been so long, after everyone in the worker circle has communicated with each other, it is found that Angus Construction has not yet begun to settle, which is the same as they said at the beginning because of the huge amount, when docking with the wallet management department, and most of the workers want cash, so the settlement cycle is a bit long.

But now most people no longer believe this statement, but feel that Angus Construction will continue to be in arrears, such repeated shutdowns are unacceptable for many people, and the cost of time and energy is greatly consumed.

More and more people gathered and waited in some cool places on the nearby streets, and the people of the 5th section had already carried out evacuation work, but most of them just went farther away and continued to watch.

Fortunately, this time the situation is different from the past, many people do not make a fuss, just wait quietly, the people of the 5th section also let these workers gathered near the Angus construction building pay attention to the heat, so as not to suffer from heat stroke, the traffic on the street is not hindered, the last time such a large-scale riot, many people still remember it vividly, everyone knows that if it causes chaos, it will cause harm to the city.

Many of these workers had previously participated in the riots, and the economy of the south, which had almost collapsed after the last large-scale riots, was only slightly better thanks to the resumption of construction by Angus.

3:19 a.m

A black sedan stopped at the foot of the steps of the General Affairs Section Square, and Violet, accompanied by the butler Micah and the bodyguards of the next three cars, stepped on the steps.

Violet, wearing a loose skirt and a sunhat, with a low brim, walked briskly into the square, where there were still many clerks in the bureau, and at the gate of the General Affairs Section, Locke had already run out with some of the councillors.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Angus, but I want you to run on such a hot day, please!"

As soon as Locke came over, he bowed and made a gesture of please, and when he lowered his head, he saw Violit with a nervous expression and a haggard face.

"I don't know if Section Chief Alpha has been back recently?"

Violet shook her head, the reason why she chose such a large visor that could almost cover the upper part of her cheeks was because she didn't want anyone to see the haggard and anxious on her face.

"Nope!"

Locke smiled awkwardly, and didn't know what topic to find for a while, but now the urgent problem is that the Angus family has stopped working again, and the reason for the shutdown Locke also knows that Avano has fallen ill, and now he is still in the hospital, because of excessive fatigue recently.

Today's Angus family, Avano is responsible for construction and technical problems, Violet manages financial problems, although Violet has said to her husband many times, so that he does not have to worry about financial matters, but it is impossible not to worry, and finally Avano fell ill, in order to minimize mistakes, Avano will carefully investigate everything at each construction site.

Now that Avano is ill, the project can only be temporarily suspended, so that Avano himself is in charge of the review from last year.

In the past, when the Angus family first started to build, because of crime, riots, and the Hillman family, etc., which led to the current high debt, all of which is inexplicable, the Angus family is currently facing huge losses, and today Violet came to the General Affairs Department to get 3 billion of the Congressional tax reserves last month, so that he can settle the cost of wages and building materials.

The current amount of wages and inspections has reached 2.1 billion, in just three months, the funds have begun to dry up again, and now Violet must get the money, and then start to settle the salary, most of the people who manage the accounts will collude with their construction team to use their brains on taxes, this part of the situation Congress has not let anyone review, but only needs the Angus family to review themselves.

Although most of the workers hope to get the full salary and pay taxes themselves, in fact, most of the workers will not go to the tax in a short period of time, and they will only pay taxes obediently when the department comes to the door, and now the mandatory part of the tax is not mandatory to the point that the employees must pay taxes before they can get their wages.

Only some companies with long-term contracts do this, and those who do not have long-term contracts, although their wages are lower, most of them are not taxed.

Under the leadership of Locke, Violet followed Locke directly into his private lounge, Jin Meng and Vivien were there, the two of them hurriedly got up and bowed and said hello after seeing Violet, the current use of congressional reserve tax funds is no longer like in the past, it is up to the executive department to decide, and at least 3 or more faction leaders need to participate.

All of this requires the signatures of all members of the Council and the corresponding sections of the Division, as well as the details of the use of the tax reserves.

"Wait a minute, Mrs. Angus, Wu Qun, they should be here soon."

As soon as Vivian's voice fell, the following had already arrived, Wu Qun, Freya and Beckinsale had already arrived.

After Violet sat down, Vivien handed her a cup of tea, and Jin Meng also knew that Violet was in a hurry, and sat down next to Violet.

"Don't worry about Mrs. Angus, everything has been taken care of, just need to sign it, it's no problem, 3 billion congressional tax reserves, 1 second to your family's account."

Violet hummed, and as soon as she picked up the water glass, there was a knock on the door of the room, and after Locke opened it, the two councillors walked in with Wu Qun, Freya and Beckinsale, and the three of them immediately greeted Violet.

In just a few minutes, on the light and shadow screen of Jin Meng and Vivian, everything has been completed, Wu Qun and Freya nodded to each other, the two quickly signed the documents, and then Beckinsale also joined in, a document that had been prepared was quickly signed, and finally only Violet's signature remained, at the moment when Violet signed the name, a prompt appeared on her mobile phone, and after opening, 3 billion had been sent to the account of the Angus family, which was very clear about the various project payments, and workers' wages and other construction-related settlements.

Violet stood up.

"Thank you for your help."

After drinking the tea in the cup in one gulp, she turned around and walked out, and everyone did not stop her.

"Really a very determined lady!"

Wu Qun said with emotion, and at this time, Luo Jiahui took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet.

"Let's drink a little before we go back, if it's okay."

Wu Qun smiled comfortably and nodded, Freya shook her head, she can't drink, she just gave birth to her second child more than a month ago, it's a boy, but on the seventh day of childbirth, Freya returned to work, and now she is still breastfeeding, so she can't drink.

"Sister Freya, I didn't say you, you should recuperate for at least a month."

Vivian said, took a big sip with a wine glass, Jin Meng also nodded, and took a sip, there are still a lot of things waiting for the two of them to go back to deal with, but the two decided to be lazy in the general affairs department for two hours, relax a little, Wu Qun looked at Vivian, still the same as before.

"Lao Wu, I've heard a little bit of ........"

Vivien was only halfway through her words when Locke frowned.

"Don't even think about Wu Qun."

Beckinsale laughed, took the wine from Vivien, and drank it down.

"What do you think Lao Luo?"

Locke Jiahui angrily took a glass of wine and handed it to Wu Qun, he took a sip disapprovingly, and compared it to a thumbs up.

"The military spending of the 3 sections will gradually increase from this year, and the future is not optimistic!"

Freya pointed out such a problem pointedly, and for a while, the ease on everyone's faces disappeared, and Locke sighed.

"To balance the current problem, both of us have to find a way to solve it, after all, if the 3rd section continues to have nothing to do, there is no need for the 3rd section to continue to exist."

Beckinsale nodded.

"I'm afraid this march in the barrier area will not be easy, block the news!"

Locke thought the same thing, Jin Meng said with a smile.

"There are a lot of armed criminals stationed in the barrier area, and they will not sit still."

This 3-section battle plan for the march of the barrier area has not been announced to anyone in the city, and the 3rd section has already submitted some matters that need to be done in the follow-up 3 sections, and the establishment of some armament stations in the barrier area has not yet been approved, and this plan is risky.

The National Assembly cannot afford to spend so much money to build an armament depot for the three sections, so it can only proceed slowly, and only when the time is right, can this bill be passed.

"I just hope the plan goes a little bit smoother!"

Locke sighed, according to the investigation of the 2nd Division, there are at least nearly 40,000 criminals stationed in the barrier area, these are the criminals who have escaped to the barrier area during the crime investigation over the years, as long as they are caught, they can get a certain degree of sentence reduction.

If these perpetrators are tracked down, it should also be possible to recover a sum of black gold, which can be invested directly in construction.

"Either way, this is a major test for all of us, a problem for the perpetrators!"

Wu Qun put away his smile and said seriously.

Locke glanced anxiously at the time, 3:38.

"Let's hope everything goes well."

The city wall near the ravine at the eastern garrison station is full of take-off and landing planes, many of which are from the prison department, and they are still waiting for the signal, once the offender in the barrier area is caught, he will be sent to the temporary detention center near the 12th section that has been set up, and he will confess the crime while serving his sentence, and then wait for the trial to officially serve his sentence.

If the offender resists, he will be shot directly, and the people in the prison department who are still waiting in the take-off and landing aircraft at this time feel a little uneasy, just wait for the green signal flare to lift into the air, they can go directly to the area where the signal flare is lifted off according to the distance calculated by AI, and accurately find the location according to the identification signal on the ground with the cargo.

"The prison department was already overcrowded, and now if we get so many criminals back, we will be under a lot of pressure."

Several members of Section 11 standing near a take-off and landing plane were smoking cigarettes and chatting.

"No, those guys just let them die in the barrier area."

Someone smiled bitterly.

Suddenly, located in the east and north of the eastern guard station, a dark green light cluster instantly exploded in the sky, and immediately several 11 people entered the take-off and landing plane, and directly started the medium-sized take-off and landing plane, everyone took out their weapons solemnly, lifted the safety of the weapon, and after loading, the take-off and landing plane slowly rose.

Ling Hong quietly watched the more than 100 criminals lying on the ground with their heads in their hands, 5 squads had blocked everything near this dilapidated town, the bodies of more than 30 criminals were being carried, and some staff members were setting up communication equipment stations.

Ling Hong lit a cigarette and looked at the bodies of the criminals who were constantly being moved to a fairly intact room for NDA collection and comparison, as long as they were compared with the NDA residues in some crimes in the city, he could roughly know what crime they had committed.

There were no casualties among the 3 sections and 5 squads, and after 6 hours of marching, Ling Hong's team arrived at a place where the criminals gathered, and sure enough, they encountered resistance from weapons and mutants, but Ling Hong quickly arranged the tactics, and he led the assault team to attack directly, and easily let these criminals surrender.

According to the confession of the criminals, their food is liquid food from the north, Ling Hong has also seen this kind of liquid food without any label, it is an ordinary storage sealed metal can, and the composition of these liquid foods has been analyzed by people, and there will be results soon.

A squad leader ran out of a room.

"Lord Ling Hong has a similar composition ratio to the 67 companies that produce liquid food on the market, of which 3 have the highest similarity, but none of them exceed 50%."

Ling Honghu looked suspiciously at the pile of liquid food that had been searched out of the ground, which might have been produced in some small workshops in the city that were specially supplied to criminals.

At this time, in the distance, three take-off and landing planes of the 11th Division flashed rapidly with red light, and a member of the 3rd Section with a short-range signal recognition stick stood at a higher place.

Soon the three take-off and landing planes hovered over this dilapidated town, slowly falling, a large number of confiscated weapons and liquid food, including some equipment in this crime gathering place, were moved to a take-off and landing plane, and those criminals who were lying on the ground with their heads in their hands were all put on collars and handcuffs, and they entered the take-off and landing planes one by one after registering their names in front of a take-off and landing plane.

Many people entered the take-off and landing aircraft with an embarrassed face, and many people were still thinking about ways after surrendering, but in the end, they saw the members of the operation section carrying a large number of weapons coming from all directions, and they could only raise their hands to surrender, and no longer had any thoughts of escaping.

Drip, drip, drip

Ling Hong immediately took out a short-range communicator.

"Ling Hong, in a place on the west side of 8 kilometers away from you, the communication has been interrupted, I am rushing over there, you move quickly."

Ling Hong threw away the cigarette butt, summoned the captains of the five squads, and after quickly arranging the matter, put on the veil, and instantly ejected, red particles floating around the body.

5 minutes ago

A gathering place for criminals located in a mountain col, two criminal teams easily took down this small col less than 1 kilometer long where only more than 40 criminals gathered, and there are many facilities built next to the mountain wall in the past, because the col is horizontal, just avoiding the strong wind from east to west, it is a relatively comfortable gathering place.

The breach went very well, the perpetrators had just eaten, rested in the facility, and no one was standing guard.

After the two perpetrators were killed, they quickly surrendered, and while the leaders of the two squads were communicating, one of them took out his flare gun and walked briskly towards the mountain pass, intending to fire flares in an open area.

The squad leader raised the flare gun in his hand and aimed it at the sky, the wind and sand were not too violent, he just pulled the trigger, and in an instant, accompanied by flying blood, and a gunshot hidden in the wind and sand, the squad leader's head was directly smashed and fell to the ground.

"Enemy attack, it's long-range sniping, looking for cover."

With a shout, the moment the clerk was about to find cover, a ball of blood exploded in his chest, and he fell straight to the ground.

Gunshots rang out, and one after another 3 people fell to the ground, completely unaware of where the shooting came from, and with an unusually high level of accuracy.

Several members of Section 3 who had already rushed into the house trembled and took out their communicators.

"Team 023, call for support, we'll ........."

Sou

With a rapid sound of breaking the sky, flames erupted in an instant, accompanied by a violent explosion, and the entire room was instantly blown apart.

Dense gunshots rang out, and many of the criminals who surrendered had been beaten into a sieve before they could enter the house, and the members of the 3rd Division who were still alive could only hold their guns and shoot back frantically, and they could already see the figures that appeared in the chaos, but with some white and red particles, it was determined that they were mutants.

At this time, on the top of a hill in this small col, there are many elite mutants of the Hillman family, and on the top of the mountain on both sides of the col, there are high-power signal jammers.

The gunfire continued to fade away, and the 50 cyborg mutants below had completed their mission.

Crunch

With a crisp sound of mechanical friction, one of the modders walked to a room, the heat detector built into his eye already clearly sensitive, and three others huddled in a half-collapsed ruin.

"Target found!"

With a mechanical voice, a transformer's eyes were filled with pathos, his hand ripped the veil off his cheek, his mouth began to fall apart, and two pocket missiles flew over in an instant.

With a violent explosion, the 50 transformers quickly floated into the air, with two white circles of light on both feet, and soon they reached the windward side, entering a take-off and landing plane that had just removed the optical camouflage, and the take-off and landing plane quietly lifted into the air.

bang

With a violent sound of landing, Ling Hong quietly stared at the places in front of her where there was still smoke, she ripped off her veil irritably, looked at the dead squad leader on the ground, and the flare gun that fell to the side, after she picked it up, she immediately changed to the mode of emergency, accompanied by an orange signal flare into the air.

Ling Hong's communicator rang again.

"All gone, Team 023 and Team 024."

Ling Hong squatted on the ground, used mental power to hold up the dead squad leader, and came to a messy small col, full of corpses, and black smoke in many places, it seemed that the battle had only happened for a short while, Ling Hong began to jump quickly, and after a while, she came to the mountain wall on the right side of the col, she squatted on the ground, carefully examined, and sure enough, found some traces.

Ling Hong also saw the bodies of some of the criminals, and it was conceivable that someone with heavy fire had ambushed the mountain wall less than 100 meters above the ground, and then quickly evacuated.

Ling Hong put down the signal recognizer and began to run, and soon ran around the col, still not finding any traces.

A number of 4 section take-off and landing planes have landed outside the col, a large number of 4 section members down, everyone was surprised by this scene in front of them, Ling Hong returned to the middle of the 4 sections, some nearby squads on the normal marching route also began to lean towards this side, the construction of the signal transmission station is still in progress, and long-distance communication cannot be carried out.

Whoosh

In the distant sky, several red signals for emergency distress rose into the air, and near an area, Ling Hong immediately ran towards it quickly.

In an old town of some size on the northwest side of the col, 10 squads suppressed the situation in a fan-shaped manner, and the situation was temporarily controlled, but several squad leaders still fired signal flares for emergency reinforcements.

Heavy gunfire erupted in the middle of the larger town, and the team members did not break into the town, but instead suppressed the fire at the edge of the town and made the criminals inside surrender.

Sou

With a violent sound of breaking the air, a small missile flew over, but as early as a few seconds ago, the staff in this area had already dispersed, and after the explosion, some staff members were injured by the shock wave, and were quickly pulled back by the two team members.

Whoosh

The men of Section 3 began to return fire with small missile launchers with heavy firepower, and many buildings in the town collapsed in an instant.

The whole place has been reduced to a battlefield, and at this time, all the squad leaders have ordered the team members to retreat 1 kilometer, and many people have been injured by stray bullets, but fortunately there are no deaths.

"You brutes, die!"

With a roar, on a street in the town, several mutants rushed over with weapons, and immediately several mutants in the team went directly over, facing the flying bullets, accurately containing the large area of bullets that flew over.

In the distance, the sky shimmered with bursts of red light.

"Confirm the evacuation signal! OVER！ ”

The voice rang out from the short-range communicators of the squad leaders of all 10 squads.

"Confirm! OVER。 ”

A pitch-black flying machine with a unique shape, long and pointed in the front, and wide and rounded in the back, instantly crossed the top of the town.

There was a rumbling sound, and in an instant, there was a violent explosion in the center of the town, and the explosions were directly connected, and then the black flying machine slashed through the town again, and one side of the town also fell into the sea of fire after the explosion.

At this time, the 10 squads, which had already evacuated nearly five or six hundred meters, began to turn around, took out heavy fire weapons, and began to attack the town frantically.

Round after round of bombardment, until the entire town was completely reduced to a sea of fire, the black flying machine began to slash over the heads of the members of the 3rd Division and continued to return home.

"The bombing mission is over! OVER。 ”

A total of 49 staff members were injured, including 3 serious ones, the take-off and landing planes of the 4th section have landed, 3 seriously injured people were carried into the take-off and landing planes, and the people of the 4th section directly began the operation.

Led by the mutants in the squad, the 10 squads began to walk around the town after waiting for the flames to start extinguishing, and began to shout for the guys who were still alive to come out and surrender, and several squads had already approached.

Ling Hong had also arrived with several councillors, and she directly led people to break into the town that had been largely reduced to ruins, only seeing most of the corpses, and the bombing was very thorough, this was to deal with such a large-scale gathering place of criminals and in this marching mission, the latest type of directional bomber authorized by the Congress to be used.

Ling Hong approached the center little by little, she covered her mouth, and after seeing a charred corpse in the ruins, she couldn't help but turn her head, and a trace of burning in her heart was born.

It's women and children!

Ling Hong exhaled, and at this moment, on Ling Hong's left side, there was a faint sound, and in an instant, several furious roars accompanied by the sound of gunshots, Ling Hong closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and the moment he turned around, the person had already ejected, and the oncoming bullet was instantly bounced away.

With a violent flash of red thunder, several people who came out of a basement with the lid exposed, their mouths wide open, their eyes wide, their bodies charred, and fell to the ground with black smoke.

"What the hell are we doing?"
