4 a.m

Trucks carrying municipal garbage lined up past the southern barracks, and soldiers standing at the gate were being led by an official to check the barracks.

In recent years, a large number of criminals have fled the barricade by hiding in garbage trucks.

At this time, a truck slowly stopped at the checkpoint, several soldiers held infrared thermal detectors, just about to measure, the officer stopped them, and then he walked directly to the truck driver, the truck driver threw a bag of things to him, he took it in his hand and weighed it, took it apart and glanced at it casually, nodded.

The truck passed through the checkpoint smoothly, the officer called several soldiers on duty, took out some money from their pockets, and distributed it to them, and several soldiers nodded happily and stood aside, continuing to check the passing garbage trucks.

In just one hour, there was a large backpack behind the official, which was full of banknotes, and the dozens of soldiers accompanying him were smiling with satisfaction.

It was just after 5 a.m., and more than 10 garbage trucks lined up on a hill in the southern part of the walled area, and a large number of criminals got off the trucks and began to carry some of the materials in the garbage.

Most people plan to wait for a few years to live outside, and then to get into the city when the limelight in the city has passed.

Many people are reluctant to go to jail, and decades in prison are unimaginable for many people.

In addition, there are more and more voices in the city calling for the death penalty of criminals, and in today's longer life expectancy, most people do not want to die, and if the Diet does introduce the death penalty, it will be fatal for many criminals.

The vast area of the fortress has now become a paradise for criminals, and the remnants of a large number of buildings of the past of human beings are dilapidated, but they can be relied on to live, as long as you have money in your hands, or if you are more ruthless than others, you can live here.

At this time, the criminals from different forces began to gather in twos and threes, already holding weapons in their hands, everyone was quietly tidying up their houses, almost no sound, no one believed anyone, they were all on guard against each other.

Soon hundreds of people began to go their separate ways, the most group of more than ten people, the least two or three people, they carried a large amount of supplies, began to go towards a large area of abandoned vehicles to discard, a team of 5 people was lucky to find a car that could still move, but it needed to be repaired, and several people began to work hard.

bang

A few people who were repairing the car were startled, and a flash of fire appeared in the distance, and several people sped up in horror, wanting to escape from here as soon as possible.

At this time, less than 1 kilometer away from the abandoned vehicle dumping place, a gang of more than 10 people was surrounded, and there were almost 30 people opposite, there were two RPGs, they were dressed in thick clothes, veiled, and with excited smiles in their eyes.

"Leave the stuff behind, or don't blame us for being polite."

"How can you do this, you take our things, we will starve to death."

The leader laughed.

"What does your life or death have to do with us?"

In the end, more than a dozen people obediently handed over the materials and turned around and walked, but the leader was already completely angry at this time, and immediately made a gesture in his eyes, and several of his subordinates also understood, looking at a bunch of people carrying materials, and began to scatter around.

Soon, with the sound of gunfire, a shootout began.

The side with the mutants quickly won the victory, and the leader laughed at the more than 20 corpses on the ground, as well as the captured looters.

"Be forgiving and forgiving."

Bang bang

The gunshots rang out, accompanied by bursts of screams, and the captive looters were all directly shattered by the guns in their knees, and the leader carried the guns and shouted at everyone to start cleaning up, and after a while, a bunch of looters who were still howling whimpered in pain, but soon the wind and sand drowned out their voices.

With the launch of last year's crime investigation, more and more criminals fled to the barrier area, and the military has carried out several clearance operations, but the effect is not obvious, and the harsh environment and complex terrain of the barrier area provide effective shelter for these criminals.

At this time, on the southern wall of the military camp, Osman quietly looked at the fire that had just been extinguished in the distance, and he glanced back at the soldiers who were training in the training ground below.

Many people didn't seem to be able to lift their energy at all, Osman sighed helplessly, scratching his head, several military operations last year had failed, resulting in more than 200 deaths, and now there are more and more dissatisfied voices in the army.

The problem of the barrier area must not be left unattended, and the criminals leave the city everywhere, and finally infiltrate the city from the northwest, and after changing their identities through the black market, they set foot in the sun.

When the prison is overcrowded, most offenders are confined to the administrative center in the area, where they are under the watchful eye of the administrator and carry out street cleaning or garbage disposal work every day.

"What's wrong? It's hard to see you look like that. ”

A soft voice rang out, and Osman turned his head to see Zijuan carrying a large bag with a large amount of money in her hand.

"About 200 more offenders left the city early this morning, with the help of military officials."

Osman sighed, the corruption of the army is also a serious problem, many raw materials for the manufacture of weapons are flowing out of the army, and this is understandable, the current army of nearly 30,000 people, the only thing that can be done every day is to exercise and learn some tactical courses that many people do not know when they will be able to use.

The only role of the army is to strike directly after the shortage of manpower on the farms or a mass riot somewhere in the city, and there is nothing important to do in the army.

Osman looked worriedly at some of the soldiers who had finished their daily daily training, training was just a daily work for them, many of them were completed with a coping attitude, most of them would return to the dormitory after training, and several people gathered to start playing cards and chatting.

"Let's try to see if we want to apply for the next battle to clear the criminals in the barrier area."

Zijuan said, and Osman shook his head.

"To be honest, I don't have much confidence, maybe I'm not really suited to be the leader."

Zijuan squinted at the barracks below, now the barracks should have started to make a commotion, someone reported this morning's incident, Zijuan quickly came over to deal with it, collected the stolen money, and arrested more than 50 people.

"This environment has been formed, although there are some difficulties, but we have to think of a way, to change the status quo is never done by relying on one or two slogans, but also need to judge the situation, Osman, your way of doing things is too straightforward, the current army is basically a plate of scattered sand, because there is no leader to dominate everything."

Osman looked at Zijuan in some surprise.

"Do you know what I mean, Osman, the reason why the leader is called the leader is because everyone can see it, let's take it step by step, start with the daily training and adjust."

Osman's heart was hot, but then he quickly sighed again, last year's several operations to clear criminals in the barrier area, it can be seen that the army's combat capability is really too poor, whether it is coordination, mobility during the battle, and the degree of execution of orders, are too low.

"In order to prevent criminals from leaving in a dignified manner by bribing people in the army, I have asked Noah and them to make a large measuring instrument, and there will be no need for manual testing in the future."

"I'm sorry Zijuan, there is only one thing I can do, find a way out, because there is no way out, these people who have dedicated their youth to the barracks know that when they leave here, there will be nothing left."

Zijuan sighed helplessly and walked to Osman's side.

"You're thinking too much, you're always thinking about other people, but have you ever thought about what they need? In the past, when you were in school, everyone thought you were a warm-hearted person, but after that, many people thought that you liked to think about others too much, which was not a good thing, and don't have too much psychological burden, it was not anyone's fault, and no one could do it in one step. ”

Osman snorted, the current army is like a chicken rib, it is a pity to eliminate it, but if it is not eliminated, it will cost a huge amount of financial resources every year to support.

There are already many voices in Congress who have cut military spending, thinking that the army only needs to stay in the grain base in the east to be on guard, and other places can be handed over to local administrators, and there is no need to invest such a large amount of money in four places every year.

In the past, the role of the army was to guard the prisoners working in the agricultural base, but now that the prisoners have worn neck rings, the role of the army has been weakened.

The Ottomans tried all sorts of ways to get the current army to find a way out, but many attempts over the years have failed without exception.

Because there is nothing that can mobilize the enthusiasm within the army, the army can only stand by and strike when there is any major problem in the city.

After the end of last year's large-scale crime investigation in the city, many people have become richer and more stable.

"If you can't find a way, do you want to ask the headmaster?"

Zijuan said, and Osman nodded.

"I've got to go and talk to the headmaster about the future of the military."

5:31 a.m

In a cell located in the prison, the alarm sounded, and soon some members of Section 11 ran out of the management room, opened the door of the cell, and a heavy prisoner was shivering, his whole body was convulsed, and he was taken away foaming at the mouth.

For a while, many prisoners woke up and watched through the small window on the door, at this time in a cell, several prisoners looked solemn, many such illnesses of unknown cause have occurred recently, and the prison explained that it may be caused by an unknown infectious disease, and the cells were also cleaned up with germs.

Nowadays, the situation in the prison has indeed improved, there are many more entertainment and sports facilities in the wind field, and there are also some more entertainment facilities indoors, and many prisoners can move freely when they do not have to go out to work, but recently many people have been discussing that there is a problem with food.

This is the first time that a serious prisoner with such symptoms has been taken away, and some prisoners have protested, but the prison authorities claim that the food is absolutely fine.

A few minutes later, a landing plane silently landed on the walls of the prison, and Clark walked out with a large number of governors, who were carrying a lot of equipment, and Marcus and Frye got off the landing plane, both of whom looked a little solemn.

"Is it really okay? Clark, that's already 61 more. ”

"That's why I asked you to come over and have a specific physical examination for the sick."

Soon a group of people arrived in a medical room, and Latis was already up and waiting.

"How's it going?"

Latis shook his head.

"The physical condition is not very good, and the vital signs are fairly stable."

Soon Marcus and Frye walked in and began to conduct physical tests on the patient's physical condition.

"The immune system has started to be destroyed, and tumors have appeared in the body."

Frye said, looking at the patient on the hospital bed with a somewhat indifferent expression, and Marcus was testing the patient's blood.

"Clark, what did you give them for so long?"

Clark pulled out a food report and quickly flipped through a GEN1938BA32 of rice.

"Different from the genetically modified food in order to prevent pest erosion in the past, it is a high-efficiency mature crop, which can be ripened 3 times a year, but it needs to consume a lot of nutrient solution to maintain the growth of crops, which belongs to a new type of biological gene proliferation technology, but many of the genes of the proliferation part have not yet been analyzed, as for what will happen to people when they eat it, it is only in the initial experimental stage."

Frye's face was solemn, and Latis sighed.

"Stop such unsafe experiments."

Clark immediately laughed.

"Termination? No kidding, this is the brainchild of our 12 subjects for several years, and it is a breakthrough made with the help of AI2 and AI5, according to our calculations, if we want to meet the food needs of more than 25 million people in the city in the future, the amount required is extremely huge, if any of you can solve it, you can replace me, otherwise shut up and assist us in completing the experiment. ”

Everyone was silent, and Latis glanced at the dying prisoner, who had been a murderer and was in good health, and had begun to reform after entering the prison.

"Don't have any sympathy and doubt about what we're doing, and if you hesitate, you'll only get half-hearted results, Marcus, Fry."

For a moment, Marcus and Frye looked at Clark in a daze.

"It's only a matter of time before he dies, we need to get a clone of him and then continue to see what happens after eating the food."

"Isn't there any other way?"

Latis asked, and Clark turned around and pressed his hands on Latis's shoulders.

"How? If there is a way, I don't have to stay underground every day, desperately researching, if there is a way, now this person will not lie in bed, the output of the grain base is now decreasing, because of the climate problem, we must not fully build the phantom membrane city ecosystem before the teachers, the production of food is raised, this is what we should do, if there is anyone who can replace us, at any time, but who can replace? ”

Latis didn't refute, pushed Clarke's hand away, turned around and walked up, Fry quietly held the scalpel of light and shadow in his hand, he hesitated a little, knowing that this kind of thing should not be done, maybe it should be easier to throw it to others, but Fry saw the strong light in Clark's eyes, he took a deep breath and began to use the knife.

"Thank you both for your cooperation! Thank you. ”

Clark bowed seriously, there was already a disagreement within the 12 subjects, and Clark kicked Natasha and some of the students who opposed it out of the research plan, and asked them to follow Ye Chunwang to conduct the farmland land recovery experiment.

"If you don't want to help, just shut up and watch!"

Clark still remembers a few months ago, he had a big fight with Natasha, and in the end the two of them made a move, after being stopped by Ye Chunwang, the two parted ways, Natasha took the students who were unwilling to help to carry out the work of land recovery, without mixing any genetic food problems, and in isolation, Clark could only apply to 10 subjects for AI2 genetic engineering and AI5 plant engineering assistance, and finally Jean approved.

Now, Clark plans to continue to apply for the assistance of the AI6 meat protein project, which will increase the production of meat protein products on the basis of the current cell proliferation technology in the city, so that everyone in the city can eat eggs and milk as much as possible.

It is absolutely impossible to keep up with the expanding population by relying on the original methods of crop cultivation, and this is something that the teachers have clearly explained to the people in their 12 subjects when they are in the academy.

As well as the current relatively large construction plan in the city, it is not possible to do without an adequate food supply.

In just over ten minutes, Marcus and Frye finished their work, and they began to look at the number of people who had recently had abnormal physical conditions, the number of which had exceeded 2,000, but many of them had not yet become ill.

This disease, which is caused by the long-term use of unknown genetic food, has no medical treatment for the time being, and Frye originally wanted to try to study it, but was stopped by Clarke.

"It's going to stop, I feel like I'm getting a little weird now, Fry."

Marcus said, and Frye nodded, he used to feel uncomfortable when he was doing these things, but now he doesn't, just doing the task at hand very often.

"Otherwise, we don't want to ........"

"Somebody has to do it, and somebody has to take care of everything, and if we don't do it, what will happen to that Clark guy's hard work? How many of us in Class 4 do you think would be willing to continue doing this kind of thing? ”

As Marcus spoke, he pulled out a tube of potion.

"What is this?"

Frye's eyes widened, and Marcus smiled.

"Modified Gene Injections for Animals!"

Frye was a little surprised for a moment, and Marcus smiled and put his arm around Fry.

"I know what you've been up to lately, Fry."

For a moment, Fry felt creepy.

"I just want to step into a more advanced field of medical treatment, I think the use of animal genes to complement human genes is inevitable in the future, and can even benefit mankind, but such research has never been able to start, I am not as smart as Huashen, nor as persistent as Akimie, but I also have my beliefs, Frye you are the same, help me! Let's finish this great study together. ”

For a moment, Fry felt a chill steaming up his back, he swallowed and looked at Marcus in front of him, completely changed, and the whole person looked a little cold.

"Marcus, why don't you go to Teacher Deguna, she can make you forget everything, you don't have to ........"

Marcus shook his head.

"If you think I'm being affected by something, unfortunately I can tell you no, Fry, it's true that I sometimes dream of the clones struggling and crying in the basement research, every time I wake up, the future will only be more cruel, I have foreseen Fry, because I always feel that the teachers' actions will cause irreversible results in the future, so I think we need to prepare, in order to deal with those unpredictable futures, Of course, I don't care about what you're doing, we just need to work together on this matter, Fry! ”

Frye looked at Marcus quietly, he turned around and walked to the patient on the hospital bed, his time was running out, after Marcus walked over, he directly injected a tube of animal genes in his hand into the man's body, Frye looked at Marcus in front of him in a daze, as if he was possessed by something, his eyes were full of evil, and he had a cold and weird smile on his face.

"Fry, everything we do, or what we do now, can no longer be called human, or we couldn't be called human a long time ago, but you need to be clear about one thing, what exactly are we doing these things for, no need to find any reason or excuse, we are not fit to live in the sun, Fry!"

Marcus said and pressed a hand on Fry's shoulder, Frye lowered his head, and didn't know what to say for a while, he went to see the clone Lolita in the early hours of last night, her body has begun to deteriorate seriously, and she will die soon, and in the past few years, she has relied on some genetic complements developed by Frye himself to maintain the life of the clone Lolita, but now this maintenance has reached the limit, Frye knows very well what to do next, but he can't do it alone.

"You'll have to help me today, Marcus."

"Looks like you're finally willing, Fry, and it's good, we'll just have to take care of it."

Marcus smiled and tilted his head, then took a tube of the potion out of his pocket, and for a moment Frye's eyes widened as he looked at the particles of color floating in the transparent potion.

"You guy."

"What is the key to the future? There's only genes, Fry, don't you think? As God's teachers, don't you want to know what it's all about? We too can become gods in the future! This is just the first step, Frye. ”

Frye looked at Marcus incredulously, he knew very well what was in the liquid in this tube, the gene of the gods, because the current lifespan vaccine is mixed with the genes of the seven gods, in order to be able to reconcile and balance the vaccine well, but these genes are not so much genes as a high-potency active growth.

"Go on, Fry, finish today's work, you take me there, we need some time to prepare."

Frye nodded, and the two continued to look at the prisoners' recent information, and at this time, the patient on the table suddenly opened his eyes, and some fine black hairs appeared on his skin, Marcus's eyes widened in surprise, and the patient's life was instantly contributed, and then quickly put it into the body bag.

Frye looked at what Marcus had done, and then at his own hands.

"What the hell am I doing!"

The sun's rays began to sweep over the city, and the city began to heat up, and the streets and alleys were full of people, many of whom went straight to some of the nearby supermarkets, waiting in line to buy everything they needed for this year's Chinese New Year.

A car slowly stopped on a street, accompanied by a burst of earth-shattering cheers, and for a while a large number of people began to commotion, and they all gathered around the car, and a plainly dressed and sweet-looking woman entered the supermarket under the escort of a large number of supermarket security guards.

"Tracy!"

Someone shouted, and for a while the woman nodded with a smile and raised her hand to greet many fanatical fans around.

The woman's real name is Stella, and she is the heroine of the special effects TV series "Special Warfare Zero" that aired in August last year.

This special effects drama looks very funny, the actor Zero is a little person with only one heart, always relying on his enthusiasm to deal with some criminals, every time he ends up in the hospital with an injury, it is a low-budget special effects film full of funny flavor, but it has set off a wave in the city.

The heroine, Tracy, is a news reporter who met Zero in a certain case and was moved by Zero's beliefs, and then ran around the city with Zero to fight some criminals.

Today, most fans came to this supermarket to shop in order to meet Stella and ask her for autographs, and the supermarket invited Stella to the supermarket to do some activities in order to promote it.

Soon Stella entered the supermarket workshop first, she sighed helplessly, and the agent next to her said with a smile.

"Stella, it seems that your popularity is already very high now, and the next investor wants to make a movie of "Special Warfare Zero", and we will soon be among the first-line."

Stella sighed and lit a cigarette.

"I don't want to play this kind of heroine anymore, can you find me some serious TV series?"

The agent was a little embarrassed.

"Ms. Beckinsale's ........"

"Just help me push it off, to be honest, shooting a film with this kind of theme is easy to cut off my back road, and the taste of mockery in the film is too heavy."

The agent also knows very well that this kind of entertainment with a strong satirical flavor is indeed not a good thing for Stella's future development.
