Chapter 1231: Fierce Fight! Master and Apprentice 52 (B)
Time was meaningless to X, and he sat quietly on a large rock at the entrance to an underground cave, and he looked back at the houses built along the mountain walls, which had become like a trading ground in the middle of the cave hall.
At this moment, you can hear the cheers of a large crowd, this place has become a paradise for criminals, Eddie has sent 10 of the strongest mutants in the family to manage this place, where power is king.
During the chaos of the city, the Hillman family transported a large amount of supplies here, and now there are small water molecule extraction stations in many places outside, ensuring water supply, and the food is all liquid food, but tonight because it is the New Year, many people have wine to drink and smoke.

With the sound of falling stones, X looked at the cave where he was located, under the large rocks, a man was forcefully tugging at a woman's hair.
"Bastard, you're hurting me."
"It's not like it's okay, you lost tonight, you want me to vent all night."
After a while, X got up with a smile in his eyes, he was now here to test their next thermal power plant.
More than 10,000 criminals have gathered here in the Aratan-Ula Mountains, and more and more criminals will find this large mountain range located in the north of the west of the city, more than 100 kilometers away in a straight line.
Experimental farmland has been established, but there is still no way to get the genetic food technology of Bright City, which X has spent a lot of time trying to establish contact with AI5, but unfortunately, AI5 is locked in 12 subjects, and the guys who have mastered the experimental gene technology are all students of the Academy of God, and it is impossible to take anything out of them, and their combat power has far exceeded X's imagination.
The gods have done too much perfection in the control of technology, X still remembers that in the past era, in countless human wars, those technology masters were more valuable, they were tragically imprisoned and resold by one country after another, and they had no power to fight back, but now it is different, those group of technology masters can pull out any one of them, and they can kill the 10 strongest mutants of the Hillman family in seconds.
Eddie has also realized this problem over the years, and in terms of strength, it is difficult to compete with the gods, so he is now thinking of light killing weapons.
X sighed, not going to continue listening to the men and women below continue to kiss me and me, he walked down the big rock and walked up the path on the cave wall.
Now think about it carefully, it is also because of his own mouth, in the conversation with Eddie, let Eddie know that there is such a thing as light nuclear weapons in the city, and finally under the investigation of many parties, now Eddie knows that there are two light nuclear reactor cores in the west and east, and it is impossible to get them, and anyone who dares to approach should have been arrested before breaking the entrance of the underground bridge machinery.
According to X's months-long observations, there should be a light-killing weapon installed in it, and the death of the trespasser is such a thing, so X can only rely on the AIs who are connected with him, and groped for a long time in the vast virtual space before finally spiking the tip of the iceberg, and it is by relying on this tip of the iceberg that Prometheus in Eddie's hand began the theoretical construction of photonuclear physics.
Eddie is determined to be above God, he is not a madman, but a conspirator through and through.
The gods found out that this was a matter of time, so X's advice to Eddie was to hide this place as much as possible, so that it could be concealed without causing any problems, after all, this is a mountain range, and the situation of the mountain is complicated, as long as the people here don't mess around, they can keep it hidden, and when the time is ripe, everything here will become beneficial to themselves.
"As long as you continue to be patient, this long-distance race only needs one champion!"
1:48 a.m
A woman hurriedly held a child and ran through a sparsely populated street, looking in front of a deserted area that was almost uninhabited, on the edge of Area 120.
The long, crooked staircase at the woman's feet was particularly long, and her eyes were full of hope as she looked at the faint lights in the distance, but they were extremely bright in such an environment.
"I'm sorry sister, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"
The woman's mouth kept chattering, and with each step up, the sadness on her face became thicker and thicker under the faint light, and the woman was a little tired, and the baby in her arms had just eaten.
The wind was a little violent, the woman quickly sank into a dilapidated house, the wind passed through the holes in the house, whining, the woman lowered her head, looking at the baby in her arms, this is the daughter of her late sister, only half a year, the woman is exhausted, and if she continues to take it, the woman knows that she will have no future.
She is not married, and it takes a lot of determination and courage to raise a child, but unfortunately the woman knows very well that she has neither, and her only way now is to send the child to the Luqi orphanage.
At this moment, the girl's heart is extremely sad, this child has been with her for almost half a year, and in the past six months, watching this little guy grow up day by day, the girl can't bear it.
But today, the boyfriend gave her an ultimatum to either send the child away or he go, the child was born with some bad health, and for the treatment, the girl had spent all her savings, and she knew that she was about to collapse.
The girl even wanted to do a special body deal, but in the end she dispelled such thoughts, she still has a future, and there are still many things to do.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry......."
The girl looked at the baby girl who had woken up and smiled at herself, and she tore a pendant of colorful notes from her neck and put it on the child.
"Xiaoyin, if my aunt is a little better one day, she will come back to you."
The baby girl had no name, and the daughter found out that she liked the pendant of colorful notes, so she called her so.
The wind was a little lesser, and the girl turned and walked on, her expression gradually becoming indifferent, and no matter how much the baby girl in her arms tried to communicate with her, she no longer looked at the child.
In front of you is a dilapidated single-plank bridge, and opposite is a wartime fortress facility, which is lit up with a slight light, and you can hear the sound of singing and the laughter of many children.
The woman quietly walked across the bridge, ran to the dilapidated gate, opened the door and put the child in the door, and after making sure that it would not be blown by the wind, she turned and ran, and her figure quickly disappeared into the dark night sky.
A middle-aged man is in a slightly colored paper hall, directing the children of the orphanage to sing, the children are singing hard, but all the children's eyes are fixed on some cakes on the table, this is the most important thing for most children to eat in the New Year, there are more than 40 children in the orphanage, large and small, there is not enough to divide.
This man's name is Lu Qi, this orphanage has been in business for nearly 20 years, but now it is no longer good, in the past, Lu Qi opened a small company, but since last year's crime investigation turmoil, his company has also been involved in gang members to launder money, has been investigated and punished, and the economic source has been cut off.
Now that the orphanage is suffering from an unprecedented crisis, Luzi does not know what to do next, and although he has applied for relief funds with the department, the money has not been sent for a long time.
At this time, the singing ended, Lu Qi picked out some younger children, said that they sang the best, let them eat the cake, while some of the other children looked a little lonely in their eyes, Lu Qi said with a smile.
"It's okay, I'll be there in a few days."
Seeing that some of the children consciously planned to go back to their rooms to sleep, at this time there was a crisp bell sound in the wind, and a burst of laughter, the sound became more and more obvious, Lu Qi ran out, and some older children also followed.
"Hmph, there is another mouth for eating, throw it into the pit below."
Lu Qi quietly looked at the little baby at the door of the orphanage, playing with the crisp bell pendant in his hand, and hesitated for a while, but only two seconds, he walked over and picked up the baby.
"It's a New Year's gift!"
"Gift on the fart, Dean!"
A child who didn't get the cake began to cry, and soon the cries became a piece of crying, and everyone knew that if someone was discarded at the door, there would be another mouth in the orphanage to eat.
"Of course it's a gift, each and every one of you is a gift, for me, okay, hurry up and go to sleep, I'll work harder tomorrow!"
Lu Qi looked at the baby in his arms, did not cry or make trouble, but had a very good smile, he felt a little uncomfortable, because if he was in prison, the child here would die, so the 5th branch did not report himself, he was spared, but now that the financial source is broken, Lu Qi selected some of the older children, let them take care of the baby tomorrow, and he will continue to run for the survival of the orphanage.
2:23 a.m
"As a result, Rick didn't get anything, and Vanney got the highest reward......."
Pullman smiled softly, turned off the light and shadow screen, looked at his wife Fang Qin, who had just eaten on the bed, squinted in confusion, and was about to fall asleep.
At this moment, Pullman felt that he was extremely happy, he listened to Freya's words, and really married this girl who was many years younger than himself, at first he was a little uneasy, because he was afraid that there would be a gap, but all this worry was unnecessary.
Fang Qin opened his eyes again.
"What's the matter, this little guy kicked you again."
Fang Qin looked at his stomach and shook his head.
"What do you think Letty will do in the future?"
"I want to train her to be a good lawyer."
Fang Qin pouted dissatisfiedly.
"I don't think it's okay, your lawyer's work is so heavy, and ah, you don't want to think about it, for an elegant and quiet girl, that picture is really unthinkable."
Pullman laughed.
"Aren't you classmates with Ms. Baozhen? How about making my daughter an independent fashion designer in the future? β
Pullman hummed, thought for a while, and nodded.
"It's okay, but I still think it's better to be a lawyer."
Fang Qin didn't say anything more.
"I can't resist you, listen to your dear."
Pullman scratched his cheek a little embarrassed, and after kissing his wife on the forehead, he lay down on Fang Qin's stomach, and stood up after gently stroking it.
"Good night!"
Pullman arrived in the studio a while later and pulled up a document that marked the locations of all the current orphanages in Bright City, a total of 321 in 120 districts.
The number of orphans has climbed a lot in recent years, nearly 50,000, either parents have committed crimes, or because the birth subsidy is gone, some parents have ruthlessly abandoned it, of which only less than 10% of the orphanages run by formal charities, the remaining 20% are living on social donations, and 70% are concentrated at the bottom, and the situation of those orphanages is really precarious.
Pullman has already submitted the abandonment law and the issue of adoption to the General Affairs Division, and at present, it needs specific program details, such social problems are unavoidable, but because they are caused by society, they need to be collectively borne by the whole society.
This is only the number of orphanages on the surface, but the number of orphans is much larger, and some have become juvenile delinquents.
Pullman only began to think about this problem after his wife was pregnant with a child, although he knew in the past, but his own ability was limited, and he couldn't do anything, but now it is different, Pullman has raised a lot of money, but the target amount of 25 million is still too little, only more than 7 million, and it is too difficult to raise 500 yuan for each of the orphans in these orphanages to live for half a year.
Pullman also donated his savings 500,000 yuan, and now he can only find Freya to think of a way, after all, many orphans are too young to have any ability to support themselves, and they have to find a few other guys to help, the most important thing is that Congress must find a way to allocate a part of the tax revenue, but this is too difficult, the taxes are paid by people in the area, and there should be a considerable number of people who oppose it.
It is also difficult to launch large-scale social donations, there have been many use of donations to defraud in the past, although those fraudsters have been punished very severely, but this kind of thing is still repeatedly banned, the next step is to increase the sentence of fraudsters, now it is 10 years to start, but Pullman intends to increase the sentence of fraudsters to 30 or even 40 years.
A fraudster may not be able to make a splash, but a bunch of fraudsters will eventually kill the last bit of compassion of most well-intentioned people.
Now, thanks to Alpha's crime investigation, most of the guys who make a living from donation fraud have tasted the bitter fruit, and more than 300 people were arrested and sentenced in the whole year last year.
Six percent of them were scammers in the name of the orphanage, which made Pullman very angry and lost control of his emotions in the Law Hall several times.
The city's taxes have indeed increased a lot, but the next construction projects still need to consume too many manpower, material and financial resources, and many problems have begun to be marginalized.
"What should I do?"
3:15 a.m
Helen quietly handles some things in the DMV, and she is now the general manager of the Angus family's southern DMV.
"Mom, I'm done."
Helen glanced at the side and had already done what she would have taken an hour to do in 15 minutes.
"You don't always follow what you're taught in school, but that's fine."
Leona yawned, the office was still in chaos, and Leona opened the thermos box and began to eat supper.
"Why don't you go to Ivy's house?"
Leona pouted.
"You also know the situation, Mom, Ivy is going to marry that soft guy at the end of the season in the future, I'll be angry when I think about it."
Helen smiled helplessly.
"What about you? Isn't there a boy in school who looks the right eye? β
"Don't mention it, those boys wear the same pants as Niya, and I definitely won't want a boy who has an affair with Niya."
Helen smiled and got up and leaned in.
"Hasn't Nia changed in recent years?"
"Change? You're so naΓ―ve, Mom, she's the public enemy of all our girls, and she really hates it to death, Mom, do you remember the time when my head was broken before? β
Helen smiled and nodded.
"It's all Niya's stupid idiot, who suddenly let go, and I almost died after bleeding a lot that day, that rude idiot stupid idiot is the most hated person in my life."
Looking at her daughter's angry appearance, Helen knew that her daughter just said that she hated Niya, but in fact she would still play with Niya, and although they were bickering when they met, the relationship was actually quite good.
"By the way, Leona, Chen Jie's kid ......."
"Don't ask my mom, you ask Nia, but the only thing I can tell you is that when I saw her mom go to pick him up, the two of them didn't even seem to have souls."
Helen was a little worried, she hadn't been to Angus's house for a long time recently, and she had no idea what was going on in the family circle.
"Let's hope it's okay!"
3:29 a.m
In a small room, a beautiful and quiet music surrounds the room.
Tick
Squatting next to a large wooden basin, there are some muddy and different colors of paint inside, Skymark carefully held a strip of neon tubes, put it in and took it out, hurriedly picked up the drying machine next to it, handled it carefully, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
At this time, in the room outside, there was a coughing sound, Tianji was a little happy, but the action was still very careful, a light and shadow music box was still playing music, and my sister Tianai was sleeping.
"Dad, why are you only coming back now?"
Tianming entered the house, coughed twice, dragged off his old coat, smiled and nodded, and carried some food in his hand.
"If you're hungry, go get something to eat yourself."
Scar smiled and took a large pile of food from his father's hand for the New Year, took out some sausages, swallowed them and ran to the kitchen, Tianming continued to take over the work in Scar's hand, and did it seriously, coating the lamp with neon.
Tianming knows that his physical condition is still not very good, he can't do heavy physical labor, he can only do some errand work, and now the income is not bad, helping others buy things and running errands, most of the money bought is for food, and the people in the company take care of themselves, because they know that they still have two children to raise.
"Tianji, you must remember that it was Mr. Lewen and Ms. Su Xin who helped us, do you know?"
Skymark snorted, his ears were calloused when he heard this.
"I will make a lot of money in the future, and I will definitely repay them."
"To be a man, you must know Entubao, Tianji has been busy with work these days, you have to take good care of Tianai, you know? You're the older brother. β
Scar snorted, and it was a completely coping answer, he just wanted to eat the fragrant fried sausages now.
After a while, the scar came out with something.
"Dad, do you want to eat?"
Tianming shook his head.
"I won't eat it, I've just eaten it outside."
Seeing his son's happy appearance, Tianming plans to continue to grit his teeth and earn money for his son to go to school, his son is very smart, he has learned a lot of words, and he is only 7 years old now, even if it is a few years late, it should be too late.
After glancing at his sleeping daughter Tianai, Tianming smiled and sped up the movements in his hand, after Tianji was full, he planned to come to help, but Tianming asked him to go to bed quickly, because he had to take his sister to get vaccinated early tomorrow morning, and he needed to queue up.
Scar climbed onto the bed, lifted the quilt, and lay down in it, as if there was a warm little stove next to it, and Scar quickly fell asleep with his sister in his arms.
Tianming smiled, pressed his chest, covered his mouth and coughed, he had recently been able to buy cheaper drugs on the black market in order to cut his medical expenses.
"As long as the child can grow up healthy!"
Late at night on the street, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning, Alpha carried Nia who was already asleep, covered Nia with her uniform, and kept jumping between the floors, and soon she saw the location of the family.
After a while, Alpha came to the first avenue, some bodyguards were already waiting, a car was quietly flashing its headlights, and Micah came over excitedly.
"Miss!"
"I'm sorry, I took Niya to a friend's house, I was a little late."
Micah took Nia, Alpha put on his uniform, turned around and was about to leave, and Micah stopped her.
"Miss, no matter what, this is your home."
Alpha smiled and nodded, and ran, quickly disappearing at the end of First Avenue.
In the dark night, Alpha kept running towards the headquarters of the 5th Division, and she planned to continue to deal with things after going back, and then go to the General Affairs Section after exercising at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning and having breakfast.
"Let's go to the fat brother's side and rest again."
Alpha knows very well that at this point, Jean should still be shuttling around the city, solving all kinds of problems, from dealing with some criminals to some trivial things in the streets and alleys.
"I'm not going to lose to your Uncle Jean! Even if you are God, it is the same. β
Bang bang
Jean stared silently at the chemicals scattered all over the ground in front of him, more than a dozen people were already lying on the ground, and he quietly looked at a leader with a frightened look in his eyes.
"What can you do when you make these things and make money?"
"You don't know how difficult it is to live at the bottom, and you self-interested people don't know anything."
Jean pulled out a cigarette and looked at the leader in front of him, looking out the window with a cold look in his eyes.
"Indeed, I don't know, and I don't want to know, what kind of misery you have experienced in the past that would make you pass on this misery to someone else, but a crime is a crime! Nothing else. β
Jean took out the phone as he spoke, and in the back room, there was a loud noise, and a sleepy-eyed little boy walked out.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Jean looked at it in a daze, and the leader immediately said with a gentle smile.
"It's nothing, it's really no problem, you go to sleep quickly."
The man looked at Jean pleadingly, and after Jean nodded, the leader walked in with the little boy in his arms, and soon he walked out, his hands outstretched.
"Your child will be sent to an orphanage, and he won't know what you've done or where you are for a short time."
The leader choked up and nodded, and at this time, a burst of sirens sounded outside, and a large number of members of Section 5 rushed into the house.
"Lord Jean, thank you for your hard work, this ........"
Jean picked up the uniform on the ground, patted it, and said to the officers who came over to him not to let the boys, and the children of these people, know what they were doing, and then turned and walked out of the room.
"You don't need to report my business, just tell the above directly, you cracked it!"
The officer nodded flatteredly, and when he saw Jean go out, he ran out quickly, but Gene was gone.
Section 13 is relatively mysterious to many people in the acting department, except for knowing that the section chief of the 13th section, Jean, is handsome and there is never a shortage of women around him, nothing else is known, but his style of acting is a little strange, and many times people are confused.
With a pale blue glow falling into an alley, Jean pressed the two robbers who were counting the money to the ground, and then quickly delivered them to the door of the security office, and left.
The night was already very dark, Jean looked at a lonely orphanage in the distance, standing in the mountains, he came to a food store, quickly bought a large bag of food, carried the food to the orphanage quickly, and then jumped into the courtyard wall.
"You're ......."
Looking at the man who had put down a large bag of things, Luzi was a little stunned, and the man opposite made a boo gesture at him.
"Don't wake up the kids! Sorry to bother you, but this food is my New Year's gift for the kids! β
Before Luzzie could ask anything, Jean had already jumped out of the courtyard wall, and at this time Luzi opened a large bag of food, and was a little shocked, there were still a large number of banknotes in it.
"If you want to win me, it's 100 years early!"
Jean smiled, looked at the lights on the upper floor, and sat quietly at the top of a building, silently smoking a cigarette.
"No, it's 1,000 years early!"
