"Where are you going?"

In the darkness of the night, Alpha awoke from his deep slumber and glanced at the bedside time, 9:44.

There was an extremely important meeting tonight, and Alpha quickly got up and walked to the bathroom, and after setting the water temperature, the warm water in the 30s was soon drenched.

Alpha's expression was a little blank, she had just had a dream, after eating in the afternoon, working until 7:30 Alpha returned to his dormitory and took a nap, although there are a lot of things in the New Year, but now the security situation in various places is relatively good, and today's things are dealt with.

Drip, drip, drip

A burst of contact came, and Alpha directly raised his hand and brought up a call panel with the tidy.

"What's wrong, Jill?"

"President, what are you doing now?"

Alpha sensitively felt that Jill seemed to have something to say to him.

"Tell me something."

"It's nothing, do you want to have a drink tonight?"

Alpha smiled helplessly.

"I'm going to an important meeting later, someone will help me get a take-off and landing plane, I'm going to travel soon, is there really nothing to talk to me about?"

"No, I just made an appointment with a few classmates, and I plan to have a drink tonight."

Despite his doubts, Alpha said.

"Have fun, contact me directly if you have any urgent matters."

After hanging up the phone, Alpha quickly changed into a uniform, but at this time, the hazy dream in his mind made Alpha feel a little cold, what exactly Alpha didn't remember, she only remembered that Jean seemed to be going to a far away, and it was a place that never came back, the only thing Alpha remembered was that the mood in the dream was a little sad, she couldn't help but ask Jean where he was going, but Jean didn't answer.

Soon Alpha sorted out her mood, lit a cigarette, and glanced at it There were still 10 minutes left, she lay down by the window, tonight's informal meeting will definitely involve a lot of things, but these things are problems that must be solved for Alpha.

This informal meeting was unruly, and the fact that such private contact between parliamentarians and people in the section was found to be a very serious problem, but now it can only be done.

Over the years, the practices of the legislators and the practices of the Acting Section have become more and more opposed, and there have been many off-the-table frictions between the two sides, and the two sides have fought each other countless times on the issue of urban construction.

However, it was not because of political discord that greater problems arose, but it was precisely because of these discordant opinions that better opinions could eventually be promoted, and finally better and more reasonable bills were born.

Now there are a lot of problems within the department, many of which Alpha can't say or even do, and the only thing she can do is to do everything she can within her own scope of competence.

After extinguishing the cigarette butt, Alpha turned and walked out of the room quickly.

10:09 a.m

Jill put down the phone, and Noah next to him looked at him with an anxious expression.

"What did she say?"

"She said that there was an important meeting, and she didn't notice the situation here for the time being, and I have asked the regional section officials who sent people not to report it, and I will be directly responsible, no matter what is found."

Noah snorted, this matter is extremely serious, Anna has killed 7 people, and now that Anna is nowhere to be found, she has self-shielded the signal source, or her own signal source has been tampered with.

Now the first thing is to find Anna, where did it go, has used the main program of AI12 to query Anna's signal source, but has never found anything, the last connection was before the killing, Anna lost contact with AI12 for about 2 seconds, and then AI12 tried to connect to Anna's signal source, but never got connected.

The search continued, Noah felt his heart pounding, if this thing was exposed, it would cause a lot of problems, so the action of the 5 departments could not be too big, Jill had already distributed Anna's signal anthropomorphic NDA data, and now the people of the 5 departments on the street are checking one by one, and it has been expanded to the scope of 10 districts, at the intersections of many regional highways, the people of the 3 departments have been blocked, but the blockade has not yet been completed, and the scheduling of the entire operation department is too slow.

In such a New Year's festival, especially at this point in time, the flow of people is quite large, Noah is very anxious, and Jill sighs.

"Wouldn't it be a little too early, an experiment with anthropomorphic robots?"

"There's no way around it, we have to start experimenting steadily now, so we don't get scrambling when the next era really begins."

Jill snorted, subconsciously touched out a cigarette, he only started to smoke recently, the daily work pressure is a little high, he is almost out of breath.

"If you don't talk to Alpha, she might ........"

Jill shook her head.

"Some things are useless no matter how much you say, the meeting is too powerful, most of the things in the department are taken care of by her alone, even things from other departments, many times I can easily complete the work, also thanks to her relationship."

Noah nodded understandingly, but Noah had some doubts about the meeting that Alpha was going to attend tonight, because the secretary Noah would also go, and he didn't have time to go to push it to Noah, so King Xue invited everyone to the All-Field Academy.

"I'm going to have to work hard for you tonight."

Jill shook her head.

"I always feel like it's really bad now, our students from the Academy of God."

Noah nodded.

"It's going to be fine, definitely!"

10:23 a.m

Located on a junction street in District 21, near the upper floor of the college district, R quietly stared at the members of the 2 subjects around him, and was arranging tasks, and soon groups of 2 subjects dispersed, they were all dressed in civilian clothes, and on the other side of the street was the all-field college, and now there was only Xue Wang alone in the college, and the students had already gone home for the holidays.

From time to time in the night sky, take-off and landing planes landed in the academy, and in a canteen behind the main teaching building, the lights were already on, and Wu Qun was busy in the kitchen where he made food, making food for 21 people alone.

Alpha and Latis were carrying out some old wooden tables and chairs, while Heath and Brandon were bringing out some of the wine they had brought over, and Freya was chatting with the chiefs.

Except for Locke Jiahui, who was not present, the section chiefs of the other 11 sections, plus the secretary of the 10 sections, Noah, were all there, as well as Wu Qun, the leaders of their eight major factions, plus King Xue, a total of 21 people.

It was supposed to be a happy first day of the new year at a dinner party, but now there are so many problems that can't be put on the table that they have to be solved.

The aroma of food filled the air, and at this time, everyone began to enter the kitchen, helping to serve food and take out some spices, although Wu Qun only made some simple dishes, but the color, flavor, and taste were very good, all the food was sent by Wu Qun directly to Chen Qiao and the people from their company.

"Let's start eating."

Freya said, everyone began to gather, the simple and quick dishes had been served, each person had a meat steak, Xue Wang sat at the bottom of the long table spliced together, and immediately praised after eating a bite.

"It tastes really good, Councillor Wu Qun."

Wu Qun wiped his hands, sat down and raised his wine glasses, and everyone took a sip of the wine glasses in their hands.

"Let's start with the most important 3 questions!"

As soon as Freya's words fell, the smile on Osman's face, who was still smiling just now, froze, and he nodded, everyone knows tonight that many questions will be directly put on the table.

"What exactly is the current funding gap for pensions!"

"No, just a few more months of patience and ........"

Freya's eyes swept over sharply, and Osman on the other side lowered his head and swallowed a piece of meat steak without saying a word.

"You can be patient, it doesn't mean that the families of the dead, and those who are injured can be patient, this is a very cruel thing to do Ottoman section chief."

The atmosphere was very solemn now, and King Xue gently put down the wine glass in his hand, wiped the sauce on his lips, and added with a gentle smile.

"Now that the polls of the 3 subjects have fallen to the bottom, if you don't continue to do something, there will be more troubles in the 3 sections in the future, the Ottoman section chief, what is the funding gap."

"The total pension is 1,559.28 million, basically according to the degree of death and injury, etc., at least not less than 300,000 pensions."

Wu Qun pressed his head, and Wang Ying slapped it on the table.

"We can come up with 300 million on our side."

Osman was a little moved, and whispered a thank you.

"The current gap in pensions is a little more than 1 billion."

Lin Xiao took a sip of his wine glass.

"This is a very serious problem, if the 3 departments continue to have problems in the future, it will be detrimental to the city as a whole, but most people can only see what is in front of them, because many people only need to live in the present is enough, the more people like this, the more difficult it is to manage, and our industrial association can only come up with 100 million at most."

Noah laughed, and the crowd looked at him.

"Otherwise, it would be better to open some technical permissions to science and technology companies in advance, and directly charge a fee, 1 billion is just a small problem, and a technology will allow them to pay at least 100 million in advance, and there are currently 138 technology-based scientific research companies in the city, they should be happy to pay this money."

"What kind of technology, can you reveal it, Secretary Noah?"

Baozhen asked, this is also something that everyone is extremely concerned about.

"There are three types of domestic robot technology: service, guard, and functional."

Noah said and called up a rough-looking template with many types of robots marked with various functions.

"Our robot technology has reached the level of complete flexibility as people, but the cost of construction cannot be reduced at present, these things need to be solved by enterprises, and we are only responsible for providing technology."

"No way!"

Wu Qun said directly, and a large piece of fried meat steak on the plate was already a little bit left.

"Now is not the time!"

Noah waved his hand, not going to say anything more.

"I'll find a way to get you 300 million, Chief Ottoman."

Baozhen said, and everyone was a little surprised.

"Is that guy Sully really going to give you this money?"

Alpha asked suspiciously, Alpha has always been not very good about Su Li's impression, her mercenary approach over the years, as well as her practice of controlling the clothing industry, including some things in the family circle, have made Alpha not have a good impression of Su Li, but Su Li has a very good relationship with her sister Niya.

"Suri isn't alone, Alpha."

Baozhen said, Lin Xiao spoke.

"It's really gratifying to get 700 million so quickly."

Noah smiled and muttered again, and after feeling everyone's gaze, he closed his mouth and quietly drank wine and ate steak.

"We'll take care of the remaining 300 million."

Wu Qun said, everyone nodded, and Osman stood up and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, thank you!"

The harm of watching the fire from the other side, Freya and they know better than anyone else, there are too many places that need to use 3 subjects in the future, among which the stability of the city is indispensable to 3 subjects, in some emergencies, although 5 departments can be mobilized quickly on a large scale, but if only 5 departments are responsible, they will be overwhelmed, and only with the assistance of 3 departments can they deal with some big problems in the city.

Now Freya feels the most disturbing place is the situation in the barrier area, although the 3rd Division destroyed the largest gathering place of the criminals in Jizhigrad last year, but a large number of criminals are still wandering in the barrier area, and they will still sneak into the city from time to time, causing some problems, just yesterday morning there was a vicious incident, the criminals who came back from the barrier area created a case, although they have been arrested, but the damage caused is irreparable.

Last year's tragic defeat has made everyone wake up, the problem of the barrier area is bound to become more serious in the future, as long as you can get seeds, build a small farm underground, and use fluorescent lamps to grow plants, it is feasible, although the crops planted are not very good, and even the quality is very poor, but with these crops, the people in the barrier area can be satisfied.

Ice cubes can be found in some places close to the mountains, and the method of extracting water molecules is extremely simple, and the most important thing is that the solid water smuggled out of the city only needs to be smuggled once or twice a year to survive many people.

These are real problems, although the social security is now very good, but there are still some lawbreakers who are secretly active, once they are investigated, they will immediately go to the barrier area to take refuge.

"The orchard project can't be carried out."

At this time, Wu Qun spoke, everyone was sandwiching other dishes, and everyone stopped for a while, and Clark laughed.

"This can't be helped, the current polls are very concerned about this plan, they only care about when the plan starts, and they don't care about the extremely difficult land recovery process before the plan begins, and the investment in the security plan before the land recovery, these things have not started yet, we are just looking for some land sites in the east that may be recovered, and are conducting experiments, and the most critical 3 departments are now unable to move."

Everyone present knew that this orchard project was the next large-scale construction of the city ordered by the gods, and in order to make the bright city have a more stable climate circle, it was very necessary to build plants on the periphery, but it was obvious that it could not be completed in a short period of time.

"That's it, everyone!"

King Xue stood up, smiled and pressed the frame of his eyes, bowed slightly, and said.

"How about a practice volunteer?"

Freya frowned slightly, she immediately understood what King Xue meant, and Alpha also understood, and everyone present looked at King Xue with some surprise.

"This is the most effective method at the moment, if the machinery is used, the construction of this plan will not be related to most people, and if the workers are involved in the reclamation, it will inevitably plunge the city into a greater economic winter, and the 12 departments are currently hoarding a lot of food."

"Is anyone really going to do it if there is no money?"

Wu Qun muttered, and King Xue shook his head with a smile.

"Obviously, it's impossible, everyone should have studied history, there were pioneers in many eras, and everyone should know what their purpose was."

"I see."

Duan Kong laughed, this method is indeed feasible.

King Xue's meaning is already obvious, only to provide food, water and shelter to the people involved in the reclamation, including the tools used in the reclamation, and these reclaimed land will be owned by the pioneers, and the things planted on the land in the future will naturally belong to the pioneers, which is a very fair approach, such a vast land in the barrier area is an endless wealth, and those who can work harder can not only solve the problem of labor, but also calm the dissatisfaction of the people at the bottom with the status quo.

This is a win-win-win solution, and it can solve the problem of unemployment in the city, but it is limited to the participation of people at the bottom, so that the working position at the bottom can be more relaxed, and as long as some land can be really recovered and planted fruit trees, there will be a large number of pioneers involved.

"We can limit an amount, a pioneer, and have a maximum of 1,000 square meters of land, what do you think?"

"That's all I can do."

Freya sighed helplessly, so that many pioneers have a bottom in their hearts, and 1000 square meters of reclamation, if a person wants to complete, it should be able to do it in two or three years, and if the land is owned by the reclaimer, the reclaimer will definitely treat the place he has reclaimed with his heart, and for his own things, people tend to be more focused, more careful, and learn some things faster.

King Xue sat down with a smile, holding a wine glass, and the faces of everyone present at this time also relaxed slightly.

"I think this matter can be raised in a few days at the city meeting, and it is a question of which side will raise it."

Pullman spoke.

"It's up to Section 1."

King Xue said, everyone also nodded, this matter is bound to eventually need to be reviewed by Section 1, because it is a city problem, Freya and a few others also plan to go back and start to arrange the work of mobilizing the bottom in advance.

"But you can think of this solution, it really helps us a lot."

Clark said, King Xue smiled and shook his head, all this is what King Xue saw in the past in the era of wandering, in the past, the city had just been established, in the era of urban pioneering, the land was owned by the state, and the merchants had to buy the land with Congress, and then hire workers to carry out reclamation planning, this practice is understandable.

All this is to drive the city's economy, at that time Xue Wang once thought, why with his own physical strength to reclaim the land is not his own, and he can only get a low salary, at that time Xue Wang did not understand the relationship too well, but now he understands, but in this construction proposal, the use of this method is completely reasonable, not only to pull out a large employment space for the bottom, but also to relieve the pressure of the bottom, but also to let the people at the bottom see some hope.

"I'll draw up a detailed and specific plan, what do you think? I would separate the reclaimed area from the housing area, and the housing area is reserved land. ”

"What a genius."

Wu Qun laughed, he had already understood, although the reclaimed planting land belonged to the reclaimers, but the nationalization of housing land was the most effective means of control, and when the time came to build some houses near the planting land, the middle-level businessmen could participate in the construction, and the middle-level economy could be driven.

At this time, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, and Alpha also showed a rare smile, this method is indeed feasible, and most of the problems can be solved in an instant, and it is not difficult to build a pioneer site in the barrier area, because in the past, there were many human remnants of towns in the barrier area, and only need to use these dilapidated towns as the basis to repair these buildings, and the resources required are not very large, and the only thing needed is the climate problem in the barrier area.

Once this bill is launched, it will directly drive the industrial development of the city, and now the automobile industry has fallen into the dilemma of unsalable, but after the bill begins, the city will usher in a new round of dawn, and it will not affect the construction of Angus.

"I'll go get some more food, this core problem is solved, I think we can have a good drink tonight."

Wu Qun said, several section chiefs also got up and planned to help, everyone raised their glasses, clinked glasses with each other, and the tense atmosphere was completely eased, all thanks to King Xue.

"It doesn't feel like it was improvised."

Alpha muttered, and King Xue smiled and shook his head, but at this time, everyone noticed Duan Kong's embarrassed expression.

"I started looking up some past data after the announcement of this orchard project, and one day it suddenly occurred to me that I could help you solve a big problem, and I feel very honored!"

11:01 a.m

", what are you doing!"

At the base in the Alatan Ula Mountains, a gang of criminals raised a gun in his hand and looked at several people behind him who looked extremely angry, and a sobbing woman whimpered.

"Get out, believe it or not, Lao Tzu collapsed you."

This man was a member of the criminal gang from Jizhigrad, and it was only one day, and this was not the first time that such an incident had happened, and several men and women at the door, although angry, could only turn away.

In another cave, several criminals armed with weapons entered and began to search for all the materials that could be used inside, and the expressions of the people living in the cave were extremely angry at this time, but they could only watch as they were allocated food and water, as well as some clothes and bedding, were taken away.

Some of the people from the original base were kicked out of the original cave and let them rest in another cave that was still being cultivated, the criminals who came over found their own places to live, the research tower was only inhabited by the core members of the gang and a few leaders, a lot of food was moved in, and some former researchers were repairing the smashed gate.

The entrance to the base was still in full swing, several leaders were directing a group of people, and in the field in front of the research tower, some people had already begun to work, surrounded by criminals with guns on guard.

Many of the criminals who had been reduced to experimental subjects here had thought that they had seen hope for a short time and had finally escaped the control of others, but this group of greedy and brutal criminals had come back again, and they were completely reduced to slaves, and they could only listen to the dictates of others every day.

At this time, with a burst of screams, several women were brought out of the tower, and some of the criminals laughed, grabbed the women and walked towards the nearby cave with a stone wall.

Agata took a pleasant bath, just rested for a few hours, she walked to the window, looked at the situation below, and did not feel that there was any problem, this was their spoils, she had already discussed with a few leaders, those worthless people would be executed in a few days, after all, this place was now enough for them to live comfortably, so it was enough, and the people who were still stranded in the mines in the northern foothills of Jizhigrad, Agata only planned to send someone to fetch useful people at that time.

It has been discussed with the other leaders, and the useful people are the young and strong, and the women, including some children who can feed, these are the future forces of the base, the men can work every day, and the women can comfort the men, and the children are relatively easy to control.

In the past, it was only possible to get along with the exiles in those barrier areas and establish a certain degree of order, but now it is different, Agata knows very well that this place can neither bring hope nor warmth to people, and the Acting Section has more powerful weapons, and if you want to survive in a long-term and stable manner, it is best to slowly build a huge underground mountain country.

"Now we just need to pay attention to the movements of the Operations Division."

Agata smiled, but at this time, Agata flashed the appearance of Lao Cheng in her mind, and she quickly shook her head.

"I'm not going to do anything for anyone! It's good to be able to survive in this kind of era, what an idiot. ”
