The wind floated violently, rolling up a large amount of dust and sand, and a large amount of plastic waste drifted in the dust.

Under the gray-black sky, a few smiling men, unkempt are picking up some paper garbage in the wind, and not far away, there is a town that is foggy in the wind and sand.

"In a little while, we can go back in June."

A man with a dark spot on his face said, untied his mask, scratched his itchy cheeks, several people looked healthy, but they all had different degrees of dark spots on their faces, and coughed a few times from time to time.

Although a few people were picking up the garbage, their eyes would always look at the light in the distance from time to time, and the bright city shrouded in light was like a bright light at any time.

Several people have already picked it up, each holding a thick pile of garbage, which is the garbage that was dumped in the city in the past, but to them who now live in the barrier area, it is like a treasure.

All six of them dragged their big sacks and walked towards the town.

Every month when the garbage is dumped, they can go over to get supplies and food, they were originally a criminal gang in the city, they made a lot of money by running casinos and loan sharks, and then they fled, and the money they earned was given to Prometheus, who was the only one who could be trusted.

Supplies were delivered to them at regular intervals every month, and the six of them soon made their way through the wind and sand to the desolate and dilapidated town, which was once a human gathering place and there were many buildings to use.

Of the 103 members of the entire gang, only 61 remain, 40 of whom died during clashes with other gangs in the Barrier Zone, a vast and desolate land where a large number of criminals escaped and no one wanted to go to jail.

Now the situation in the city is still the same, and the intensity of the crime investigation has not been relaxed at all, but has become more severe than before.

Now that they had finally found a place to live in peace in the east, Prometheus would send people from time to time, and the last time they had been told that they could leave for the northwest in May of this year, and that arrangements had been made for them to return to the city.

This gang has been here for almost 3 years, and many of them have reached their limits, and if they don't bask in the sun, they are really going crazy.

"When we raise that woman, we'll have fun."

One man spoke, and the other men laughed, the gang originally had female members, but when they clashed with a gang, the women were all snatched by them.

In this land, food, water, women, and warm clothing are the only things that can be traded, and the weapons in their hands are to ensure their own survival.

"What the hell happened to that woman? Crazy and crazy. ”

"It doesn't matter what she does, as long as it's a woman."

A few days ago, these six people picked up a woman who had fainted in the wind and sand and brought her back, and everyone was very happy, but this woman looked very weak and mentally abnormal, always saying that there was nothing, that there was nothing, that there was nothing in the light, and that there was nothing in the light.

Everyone knows that the woman is delirious, but it doesn't matter, they all hope that the woman will get better.

After a few people walked into the town, some of the people who were leaning in the dilapidated houses greeted a few people, and they took their things to the large house in the middle of the town, which contained some machinery sent by Prometheus to process some raw materials into tarpaulins to shelter from the wind.

Plastic and paper can't stop the cold of the night, but they can keep the wind at bay.

After the 6 people entered the factory, they immediately looked at the woman who was lying on a soft bed on the side, she was still very weak, but she should be able to recover in two weeks at most, and everyone only needed to endure until the woman recovered.

Every day when the wind and sand are the largest, that is, when the bright city heats up, the people in the barrier area will basically stay at home, there are too many harmful things in the wind and sand, cough and asthma is a disease that everyone in the barrier area will suffer, and it will be fatal in the long run, but some people have adapted to it, and those who have not adapted have died.

The lungs have been severely infected, so the perpetrators of the Barrier now wear veils wherever they go.

10:23 a.m

Click

A metal can smashed suddenly stopped in the wind, as if it had hit an invisible wall, and it came to a standstill in the wind.

Gradually, some figures appeared in the wind, K was holding a cigarette in his mouth, holding a can with one hand, and there were nearly 30 people behind him, all of whom were elites of the 2nd Division.

"Settle the battle in 10 minutes, then go back for the time being today, and continue to clean up after a week of recuperation."

As he spoke, the members of the 2 divisions around him scattered, and K slowly walked towards the town in front of him, which was nearly 1 kilometer away.

In the entire barrier area, there are large and small gathering places, very complicated, it has been investigating for several months, and finally determined the gathering place of some criminals, the previous light nuclear weapon launch was quite successful, and solved the current large gathering place of nearly 3,000 criminals under their investigation in an instant.

C comfortably sipped a cigarette and quietly looked at the town in front of him, this is already the gathering place of the 23rd criminal, since they do not plan to return to the city to accept the punishment of the law, then there is no way, in the long run, the gathering of criminals is very harmful to the city.

These criminals can no longer be left alone, in the past three years, they have been lurking back to the city from the northeast, and some hungry criminals have committed crimes as soon as they return to the city, and this investigation is secret, and only the people in Section 2 know about it, not even the General Affairs Section.

Now K finds it strange where exactly they got the food, and some of the perpetrators have been interrogated, and they say that in the middle of every month, Prometheus will bring the food, a name that has been circulating at the bottom in the past, and it has never been possible to find out.

K gradually felt that this guy had a very complete plan, and he had to solve some of the problems created by the root cause directly, and these criminals were the problem at present.

Getting closer, K threw away the cigarette butt, faint red particles fluttering in his eyes, he looked back at the city in the light behind him, smiled, and just turned around, K had already turned his head sideways.

bang

With the sound of a gunshot, K instantly ran quickly, and sure enough, a dark sentry was planted at the entrance, but the location of the bullet just now had already exposed the location of the guy, K went straight to a dilapidated small building on the right, and the gunshots continued to sound, and the whole town instantly appeared violently gunshots.

Whoosh

With several red rays of light passing by, the small building was cut in an instant, and K walked directly past the collapsed small building, and rushed directly towards several criminals who seemed to have just woken up, and in an instant their heads were slashed to the ground by the red light.

The gunfire went from massive to sporadic at first, and K walked past a few people who had fallen to the ground, and looked at a long, old factory in the middle of the town, with a large amount of tarpaulins on all sides.

The personnel of the 2nd Division, who had already surrounded the factory, were guarding all around, and K walked directly to the door, and in an instant dense and compact firepower gushed out, but all the bullets were in front of K, stagnant in the air.

The iron plate door had been shot through a thousand holes, and K kicked the door open, and in an instant, the criminals around him raised their hands and lowered their weapons, and K took out a cigarette from his pocket.

"We don't have the equipment to escort you back!"

"You ........"

Wails erupted, the surrounding walls were constantly torn open, and the people of the 2nd Division rushed in directly, and in just 3 minutes, the remaining 30 people in the factory all fell in a pool of blood.

"There were no casualties, Master K."

K nodded, at this time everyone saw a weak woman lying on the bed, sat up in horror, K walked over slowly, the woman screamed madly, got up and ran, K held the light and shadow mobile phone, and quickly completed the appearance comparison, this woman escaped 5 years ago, suspected of human trafficking, and sold a lot of child slaves.

The comparison is still ongoing, the wanted murderers of a case have been compared, the woman didn't run far, she has no strength to run, she doesn't seem to want to die, K spits out a puff of smoke, and the moment she turns around, the woman's neck has been twisted.

"Alright, wrap up! Don't have any psychological burden, it's like cleaning up the garbage, just think about it. ”

Among the 30 people, some people still had complicated expressions, but at this time they began to destroy all the equipment in the factory, and then directly took out solid combustibles.

Soon the fire was blazing, and K stared quietly at the city in the distance, a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth.

"That's all there is to it!"

K took the members of Section 2 who had returned to the team and walked towards the take-off and landing planes not far from the town, during which no one said anything, and everyone was not in a good mood.

Now there are other things in the city, K also plans to go over to assist C immediately after going back, the poisoning incident in the south of the bottom has not been solved yet, although some plumbers have replaced the equipment, but the problem of the pipeline is still a big problem, the matter cannot be concealed after all, and the current water supply can only supply solid water to the people.

Coupled with the current problems in the Barrier Zone, even though the Northwest has been strengthened, the perpetrators are still returning to the city from the Barrier Zone.

The situation at the bottom has become unstable due to last year's exposure, and the stagnation of urban engineering construction has minimized the damage before the problem erupts.

A place in front of him flashed with a red light, and as soon as K and the 30 members of Section 2 behind him walked over, the take-off and landing aircraft automatically disengaged the optical camouflage, revealing the prototype.

"I'm sorry to involve you in this kind of mission."

K said, the staff behind him were very quiet, some of them had already accepted, and some of them were still immersed in the incident just now, and they seemed very entangled, everyone got on the take-off and landing plane, K directly set the automatic flight, and would return to the 2nd section in two hours.

This trip was too tiring for many people, and for nearly 3 months, they were investigating and cleaning the barrier area.

K's idea is very simple, even if it can't be investigated in a short period of time, but the criminals who are gradually gathering can be swept away.

That's it! That's the only way to .......

K took a deep breath, tilted his head and lit a cigarette, K really wanted to retire, he had thought about it countless times, but now it is not possible, the construction of the department as a whole has not been completed, and the number of staff is still not enough to meet the growing population.

At this time, in the cold north-west, near the Aratan-Ula Mountains, some dilapidated trucks, tightly wrapped, some drivers are talking and laughing, and they will deliver supplies that will be fully distributed by the middle of the month.

At this time, a man with masked cheeks and only a pair of eyes walked over, and after the drivers saw the man, they greeted the man respectfully, and the man nodded and said.

"Drive the truck back."

Some drivers looked at the man suspiciously, completely at a loss, these drivers were selected by this mountain range organization in large and small organizations from all over the country, and they were absolutely not allowed to reveal the specific situation in the mountain range, responsible for sending food and drink to their own organizations, and making contacts.

"What do you mean? Mr. Norton, if we don't send it over, our people will starve to death, and we don't have any violations. ”

These organizations will send some mutants over here to help with the work, and the drivers have all gotten off the bus en masse at this time, and more than 30 trucks full of supplies have only completed the transportation early this morning, and now if they are not sent out, many of the people in the organization will starve.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Norton said that at this time, a truck driver was dissatisfied, and he got into the car and planned to drive the truck away.

bang

With a gunshot rang out, the truck driver fell in a pool of blood in an instant, and for a moment everyone obediently began to drive the car into a huge cave that had been dug out behind him.

The entrance to the cave is very hidden, just in some small hill pack, and it's easy to get lost if you don't know the exact location.

Soon, trucks were pulling down from a small mountain bag near a huge mountain range.

Norton drove the truck with the dead driver, slowly entered the cave, and for a while there were bursts of doubts around him, and at this time, the other managers of the mountain range also came out, and one of them said directly, Now the Department is investigating the matter here, and if this place is exposed, it will be cleaned up.

For a while, the interior of the originally noisy cave began to quiet down, and many people knew that quite powerful weapons were launched in the city, directly sweeping away the criminals in a large area.

"From today onwards, no one is allowed to leave here."

As he spoke, a large number of mutants began to approach the cave, pushing a large door with a rock mass on the outside, and the cave was soon closed.

Many of them had left through some of the passages on the walls of the cave, and Norton and the others watched the door close, and began to order their men to come down and strictly forbid anyone to leave the place.

11 o'clock in the morning

In the streets and alleys of the city, there are people watching Freya's speech, the speech has just started for half an hour, but not everyone is looking at the content of the speech, many people just casually look at a few times, and then start today's normal travel.

Angel Park, and some facilities have been opened, and there is still a lot of traffic every day, at this time, in a small shop next to a water park that sells some gadgets, a large number of children gathered, and a young and beautiful woman is selling these gadgets made at the end of work, there are many types, there are animals, industrial items, cute and novel gadget designs.

These small items are not expensive, ranging from 1 yuan to 20 yuan depending on the function, only the size of a lighter, but they are very delicate and very popular with children.

There are a large number of small shops near the water park, where you can eat and play, and shops that rent water equipment.

Hathaway looked at everything around her with some tiredness, she had been squatting here for more than a month.

There are a lot of materials and manufacturing equipment in X's underground facilities, and in an era when light and shadow materialization technology is so advanced, it is too simple to make such a small object that is so delicate and addictive.

Hathaway was waiting for someone, it had been a month, but the other party had still not come, and suddenly with a prompt sound in her ears, Hathaway cheered up, she stood up straight, looked at the children who were still picking out this small toy, and began to look at the sound in her ears.

In the distance, Hathaway saw a young and beautiful woman, dressed luxuriously, surrounded by some bodyguards, and the woman was wearing a purple document with a flame pattern, which was from the Hillman family.

According to the specific analysis of the AIs, X can only be imprisoned in the Hillman family's manor, and it is almost impossible to get in, and the place where X is held must be a place where there is no signal.

The woman in front of her is named Ran Yu, the wife of a member of the Hillman family, and the child next to her is gloomy and not too happy, named Mani, who is a member of the fourth generation of the Hillman family.

This woman named Ran Yu will definitely take her son to the amusement park on the 1st of every month, and the advertising at the small shop opened by Hathaway increased the volume, which really attracted the mother and son.

"Mani, you see what you like, you can buy one."

Ran Yu smiled, looking at his son's situation, he didn't know what was wrong, because his son was personally taught by Mr. Eddie, the patriarch of the family, and his son was very smart, even more than he knew, and often said himself speechless, Ran Yu also felt very happy.

Now Ran Yu gets along well with her disabled husband, and since her husband was in a car accident, the relationship between the two has slowly improved.

Ran Yu's meticulous care has made the relationship between the two different from the past, there has been basically no quarrel over the years, and his son is also excited and studious, very smart, Eddie also said that this child will definitely become the pillar of the Hillman family in the future, and he will praise Ran Yu in front of him from time to time.

Looking at his son who is always sullen, Ran Yu also realizes that having fun is very important for children of this age, so he will bring his son over to play every month, although his son has an unhappy expression, he is actually still a child, he still likes to have fun, although he knows a lot of things, but he still behaves like a child.

"I want this!"

Mani showed a rare smile on his face, he took a fancy to the pendant of a little tiger, this is the image of a happy tiger designed by an artist in the city, many children like it, Hathaway hurriedly bent down and began to look for it, and soon got a pendant of a happy tiger in the package, collected 8 yuan from Ran Yu, and handed it over.

There are relatively few toy objects here, but there are many pendants, and there are many styles, and sure enough, after the child opened it, Ran Yu helped him hang it around his neck, and Hathaway breathed a sigh of relief.

"The plan was a success! Now you can go back to the ground and wait for Mr. X to wake up. ”

Hathaway nodded, she had accomplished a lot of things under the instructions of AI over the past few months, and these AIs were really terrifyingly smart, calculating everything clearly, and basically there were no loopholes.

Hathaway can even get a real identity certificate, because Hathaway is already a dead person in the past identification, and she uses a new identity, which Hathaway thought of, when it comes to demographic statistics, the AI has done something, or it is part of Project X.

There should be a lot of people like Hathaway who have identification documents and records that don't exist, in order to make it easier to move around the city.

In the three months since she came out, Hathaway gradually learned about some of the things that Prometheus had done, which was very terrifying, and she and her husband never thought of using AI to commit crimes, but intended to make AI a good helper for personnel.

From the beginning of their agreement to the conditions of Eddie Technology and being taken to the manor, the two thought about leaving countless times, but gradually found that there was no way to escape, they could only leave a back door in Prometheus, as long as their two children and their husband's two children were born, they could snatch Prometheus back.

"Will it go well!"

Hathaway glanced at the mother and daughter who were happily leaving, and a burst of mechanical laughter came from the generator in her ears.

"Of course, Lord Hathaway."

11:31 a.m

"Take it."

Nia walked out with a pile of her own things, and the Angus, who were talking to the middleman, turned their head to look at their daughter.

"What do you do, Nia."

"These things can be sold for some money."

The Angus family mansion has been emptied, many of the people who served on the estate have been left to make a living, and most of the food items that are of some value have been sold, many of which are works of art from a bygone era.

In addition to the company, the Angus family has sold everything that can be sold, and is still actively raising money, as long as the funds are in place, the city can start work again, and now the city needs to solve the follow-up problems that have evolved in the construction in recent years, and the settlement of the construction project can only wait for the city to settle down for a period of time, and slowly settle to the Angus family.

Violet couldn't bear to look at the things in the box her daughter carried, there were a lot of pendant jewelry, and some valuable handicrafts, these things were all birthday gifts and New Year's gifts given to Niya by people in the family or other families for many years.

"Take it, it's not worth a lot of money anyway, Mom, you just quit school for me, anyway, the tuition fee over there is for nothing every year."

Violit was slightly furious, and Nia put down the box and left.

Avano looked at the main mansion that was locked by Micah, and in order to ignore the huge monthly maintenance fee, the family decided to move to a smaller house, which belonged to Alpha next to it.

Now that the funds have reached tens of billions, the construction from the middle to the bottom of the south can be completed, and this time we must be prepared, and we must not let any capital come in again.

The Phoebus family also helped the Angus family a lot, and now the car inspection station in the city belongs to the Angus family, which is different from the normal market business, the Congress and the Phoebus family both occupy shares, part of it is given to Congress in the form of taxes, and part of it is given to the Phoebus family, but now the Phoebus family did not ask the Angus family for a penny, but said that they would settle it later.

This kind of implicit help can't be done with the princess, because it is illegal, and the Phoebus family still has this money in their accounts and bears the taxes, but there are no complaints.

"Don't cry with a sad face, my dear, we can get through it, so many people have helped us, if we don't cross over, we'll be sorry for these people who helped us, and our two daughters!"

Violit said as Avano put his arm around her shoulder.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to be the ......."

Violet shook her head slightly, Nia had even sold her game account, and when she came over with a few thousand yuan before, both husband and wife were surprised.

No one could have predicted what would happen when the construction started again, and now all they could do was to continue the construction work, although the east and south had already produced output, but it was only a minimal, only enough to sustain the entire Angus family.

There are also many women from the family who have come here, they have all helped Violet in the past, they have brought some money or valuable things, Violet has written them down one by one, and will wait for everything to be over, and slowly repay the debt.

At this time, Niya came to the backyard of the mansion, some of her classmates were there, and Ji Mo came over and took out some money from her pocket, more than 300 yuan.

"Take it."

One after another, some classmates took out their pocket money and handed it over, and Niya counted the money with a smile.

"Hurry up, who else, give every penny to the old lady, and the old lady will pay you back twice in the future."

Niya said, not polite to anyone at all, and Jewell smiled and took out more than 2,000 yuan.

"How do you have so much money?"

"Take it."

Nia grabbed it and scratched her head.

"I don't have a good memory, you can remember the amount yourself, and when I leave here, I will return it to you when I start working!"

Quite a few laughed, saying that they didn't need Nia to pay it back.

"Okay, okay, you can get out, even if you don't need to pay me back, but the old lady will pay you back this little favor!"
