The last day of May every year, that is, the 900th day of the year, is the day of the annual coming-of-age ceremony of the giant hall.

On this day, all the children who have reached the age of 16 in the giant hall will go to adulthood, on this day, they will be tested and planned by the International Academy of Political Sciences, and through crystal analysis, the protagonist of each coming-of-age ceremony will be positioned for career planning and couple identification.

When I opened my eyes from the dormancy chamber and raised the dormant hood, there was already a lot of noise and chatter outside.

The girl holding the plate today, it seems that the lipstick has also changed color, very bright and bright, from my father's original hometown to the political research area here has been nearly 6 years, this is the first time I have taken the initiative to pay attention to the lipstick girl who handed me the plate for 6 years, the reason why she is called the lipstick girl, is because every time I wake up from the dormancy warehouse, the first thing I see is her, to be precise, she will wear all kinds of lipstick every day.

In fact, the girl is as big as me, but I forgot that today is the coming-of-age day of the giant hall, and I guess today's lipstick girl is also intentional.

I suddenly turned to the dormant chamber behind me to wake Liu Li, but Liu Li was nowhere to be found.

"She left early." The lipstick girl spoke.

"Oh." The lipstick girl's mouth spoke, which made me a little uncomfortable, I always thought that the maid girls didn't speak.

"Hey, isn't Brother Zhang here either?" I then asked the lipstick girl.

"Assemble at the temple too." The girl was smiling, very beautiful.

"Oh." I'm still not used to it.

"You go too, I'm waiting for you, I can leave only when you go." The lipstick girl seemed a little impatient.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" I took a red pill from the plate, took some water and swallowed it.

"Uh-huh, why isn't it brown today?" After swallowing it, I realized that the food was a little different today.

"You'd better hurry up and go to the temple!" The lipstick girl didn't care about my problem at all, as if she had been attracted to the temple, but her body was still here.

"You go first, I'll tidy up and go over." I let the lipstick girl go first.

In the giant hall, it seems that everything is orderly and unchaotic, from career to work, from survival to love.

When the temple was built 300 years ago, a complete system of interconnected government management was already in place, which eliminated the problem of scarcity and uneven distribution of resources like the earth.

It seems that the implementation of a planned economy, not just a planned economy, everything is planned.

I still remember that the handwriting of 300 years ago is recorded on the paper in the museum, and it can be clearly seen: during the 500-year planned economy period, rest and recuperate in the giant hall, scientific research is better than everything; In the 500-year space military period, the space military will mature within 500 years; In the 500-year period of wisdom upgrading, it is necessary to upgrade and pass on the wisdom of human beings.

As early as 300 years ago, the ancestors planned the direction of human beings on the earth, and it may be the disaster on the earth at that time that made human beings cherish the hard-won unity even more.

Through scientific research, we will thoroughly grasp the complexity and laws of the universe, strengthen the expansion of human beings on earth and the exploration of new continents through space military, and strengthen human domination of the universe through the upgrading of wisdom.

I was not in a hurry, took the vertical staircase from the dormant area to the platform in the hall, and entered the square through the flipping staircase, the square was not as lively as in the past, and today it is uninhabited.

Maybe it's because I've been worried about my father's disappearance for nearly three years, and I've been in a state of disengagement, and when I came to tell me about the coming-of-age ceremony a few days ago, I was asleep and didn't pay attention to the coming-of-age ceremony at all.

I followed two of my peers who were running in a hurry, and I knew they must have been on their way to the temple site as well.

The faster I followed them, the faster I accelerated, the more they looked back and fell to the ground nervously.

"What are you running for, are you going to the temple?" I chased after me and asked the girl with two braids.

"It has nothing to do with her, if you want to arrest you, you will arrest me!" The man who fell to the ground looked at me and said.

"Catch you? Why should I arrest you? I asked, confused.

"You? Didn't you come to arrest us? The man stood up and seemed relieved.

"I just want to know how the temple passed?" I continued to ask.

The man pointed in the direction of the pointer behind me and said, "There's an entrance there, and you need to enter the temple, but everyone in the temple should be handing it out." ”

After saying that, the man took the pigtailed girl and ran, "Then you ......" I didn't have time to speak.

I walked lazily in the direction the man had pointed me out.

After wandering for a long time, I didn't see any obvious signs for the entrance.

"Why are you still hanging around here?" Brother Zhang patted me on the shoulder.

"You're embarrassed to say that you're protecting me, where did you go early in the morning? Can't finish the task? "I kicked Brother Zhang's legs, too strong, my legs hurt a lot, three years of getting along, I and Brother Zhang are already as familiar as brothers.

"Why don't I have any entrance cards?" I asked Brother Zhang.

"I got it for you earlier, you fell asleep yesterday, and I got it for you when I got it." Brother Zhang anxiously urged: "Come with me." ”

I saw Brother Zhang insert a small thumb-sized sign into a tightly locked one next to it, and he couldn't notice that this was a fork in the door, a blue light flashed, and the tightly sealed door was opened.

The quiet and terrible square, and in an instant, a noise came from the door.

"Wow, that's how the temple was opened?" I was blown away by the view in front of me.

I have heard of the temple, which is divided into the east hall and the west hall, according to the current position, I should be in the west hall, and the west temple is only open to the public every year on coming-of-age days. There is a collection museum in the west hall, which houses many objects from the ground period and is preserved with great value. The west hall also contains many seeds and seedlings of plants and animals, and is a large man-made surface cabin. In fact, the west hall is also a catapult cabin, in an emergency, the people of the giant hall will pass through the square, enter the west hall, lock the west hall, can catapult into space, the resources and planning contained in the west hall, it is said that in accordance with the pre-planned situation, the people in the giant hall can continue to live for 100 years, through 100 years of recuperation, the west hall can also continue to study, continue to seek livelihoods and ways out.

I was led by Brother Zhang to the stage of the West Hall, and the stage was performed round by round, and I saw that the lipstick girl also presented a dance on the stage.

A scientific research man, he didn't have the heart to understand these entertainments at all, but he still fell into deep thought, and thought that if my father was here, I would be able to discuss many things in adulthood.

At this time, a police officer walked up to me and took out a career selection list for me to check, scientific research practitioners, blue leaders, police departments, grassroots and several of the following checks are all gray, it seems that I can only choose the first three, too abrupt.

"Brother Zhang!" I shouted Brother Zhang, it seemed that the environment was too noisy, "Brother Zhang! "Brother Zhang!"

I shouted a lot before Brother Zhang turned around, "What did you choose as a profession at that time?" ”

"Police Department!" Brother Zhang didn't seem to pay much attention to me.

Scientific research is what I do now, and the police ...... The four words of the blue leader seem to be particularly conspicuous! If my father were still here, would I be proud of my father!

The devil sent the gods, I checked the option of the blue leader.

The officer looked at me in surprise, "No change, Dr. Ding?" ”

The police officer seems to know me, and it's no wonder that, although young, he still has a reputation in the giant hall as the head of the scientific research center.

In fact, there are 10,000 words in my heart to scold this police officer, why do you ask such a sentence! I can't listen to such a question, otherwise I would have changed back to scientific research!

"If you don't change it, why change it?" I answered the officer in no uncertain terms.

"It's okay, I'll just ask, don't get excited!" The officer was taken aback by my firmness.

"In the following session, adults and girls, do you remember the red food you took in the morning? This food has been modified to test your DNA, your character, physical qualities, hobbies, and even intellectual abilities and professional abilities, all of which can be detected. Now that the results of the DNA analysis have come out, let's ask friends who have discrepancies between the results of the analysis and the data you filled in to express your decision. If it is reasonable, the on-site approval team will approve it, and if the approval team rejects it, you will accept the career arrangement unconditionally. "The host is very handsome, whether he has changed the genetic code, I doubt it.

"Ding Tongjiang!" When my name was read, there was an uproar! Even I was stupidly crying by myself! Brother Zhang dragged me and said, "You? What's going on? ”

I walked up to the stage tremblingly, feeling a little like being chased to the shelves!

"I ...... I filled out such a form without warning. I stumbled as I described.

"You can rewrite it now, Dr. Ding!" One of the elders in the reply group seemed to give me the stairs down, but I was already standing on the stage, so I couldn't give me an image of rebellion in front of all the people of the giant hall.

"Nope! Blue Leader! That's right, I'm going to join the army! "I was even more forced to be firm in my choice.

"Okay, start your description, if the description is reasonable, we will rationally approve it, and if it is unreasonable, we will reject it directly." A slightly younger officer pointed at me.

"I want to ask everyone here, what is scientific research for? Isn't it right to understand and master our broken world? As you all know, in terms of research, I am the head of C2. Then I also want to ask, what are the soldiers for? Isn't it right to keep us safe and safe from the Great Hall and even the safety of the Earth? If I join the army, a soldier who can not only master the power of science and technology but also devote himself to the battlefield, is it an extremely important aspect for the progress and advancement of our human race? When alien civilizations invade, traditional soldiers would only fight, or turn to scientific research departments for help. What if I were a soldier standing directly in front of an alien civilization? When a disaster strikes on the surface, soldiers also need front-line scientific researchers to assist and fight. Blue Leader, my choice is serious and well thought out! I described.

"We have a lot of scientific researchers who are invested in the front line, you are the person in charge of the scientific research center, and your investment in the front line is the loss of the scientific research institute, and we will not approve this description for the time being."

"My father was a soldier and died on the Antarctic Ding Mountain, which I named after him! He and his comrades-in-arms exchanged their lives for the survival of the surface people of Australia, and as the head of the scientific research institute in the C2 area, I have not even been in contact with the surface people, so what qualifications do I have to conduct scientific research? Even our humans don't know enough about it. I need front-line experience, I need to go down to the surface, I need to go to space, to the moon, to more of our supply stars, to wormholes and the boundaries of the fourth dimension, and even I can accompany the exploration forces in search of a new home. My mother is gone, my father is gone, home is my greatest desire, family is the longing of all of us who are still alive for 300 years after surviving the disaster, isn't it? We are all family today. ”

An older female approver held up the sign, followed by all but the older one.

"Ding Tongjiang, although we approved it, the military will go through a strict physical screening, and if you can't pass the screening, you will still be rejected." The female applicator looked at me and said.

I myself was a little surprised at what happened at this moment, it seemed that everything was not arranged by me, and I seemed to be pushed into a scene by fate inexplicably.

The next link is the most carnival time for boys and girls, couples are matched!

I saw that Lynn was also here, and Lynn was holding a note in her hand, as if she couldn't wait to get up to the selection table.

The link of couple's selection is like this, you can choose both sides, after the review of the approval group, you can also choose unilaterally, after the consent of the selection object, you can also want to choose, there is no choice of object, it will be matched by the data analysis of the approval group, this item obviously accounted for the majority in the past. Of course, there is also the right not to choose, that is, to give up temporarily, like I should be the latter, anyway, there is nothing for me in this link.

I saw Liu Li and Lin both standing on the stage, and Lin seemed to be a little surprised when she saw Liu Li's eyes, and she didn't raise her head shyly.

"Ding Tongjiang!" These three words are my name, right? If I'm not mistaken, I'm ready to turn around and leave.

What's the matter today, I was forced everywhere in a daze since I woke up and took the red pill, and now I was forced to the stage again, standing opposite Liu Li.

I looked at Liu Li's upright facial features, today's Liu Li seems to be more charming than her in the past, I don't even dare to look directly, after being transferred to the C2 area, it should be the most beautiful in the C2 area, at least in my eyes.

"Dr. Ding Tongjiang Ding, Researcher Liu Li's choice is you, are you willing to accept Liu Li's pursuit?" I have never been able to understand why there is such a way to choose, at least love should be free, although this way is very free, I do have a long-term love for Liu Li, but in the end it is still extremely awkward.

"I ...... I ...... "I couldn't give a reply, I looked at Lin next to me, hoping that this childhood sweetheart could give me some reminders, but Lin's head was lower, lower than me.

"I said Dr. Ding, you are also second to none, why don't you have the courage." The following began to heckle.

"The missing father has not been found, the crisis of the earth's wormhole has not been resolved, the energy of the giant hall is still worried, and the affairs of the world are not yet decided, how dare you talk about this, Liu Li is sorry." I looked at Liu Li and rejected her.

Liu Li raised her head and smiled at me, walked to me and gave me a hug, a hug with mixed tastes, I seemed to feel Liu Li's tears dripping on my chest, and my heart was filled with a trace of ripples, but I didn't dare to be presumptuous.

Liu Li confidently and arrogantly stepped down from me.

I was embarrassed and at a loss to adapt to such a day, standing on the stage, seeing Lin opposite me, I really wanted to hold Lin like when my mother left when I was a child, and I seemed to be holding my mother who left, and I didn't seem to be able to bear Liu Li's departure at the moment.

Lin kept her head down and didn't dare to raise it, and before the shout of "next" could be spoken, Lin ran off the stage with her head buried and disappeared into the crowd without a trace.

I strode towards Brother Zhang, who punched me hard in the chest, and I was so painful that I didn't make a sound.

"You, prepare to be cruel!" Brother Zhang's words seemed to have words, and even Os, who was usually as cold as a block of ice, shook his head.

I didn't go anywhere, I came to the rest room, the lipstick girl was not there, I lay down in the cabin by myself, and fell asleep as if I had never left.

It was a bleak day, and even I didn't know what was happening, like a fate or a deliberate decision.

The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth!

As an adult, there are still hurdles that can't be overcome, and there are corners that can't be turned.

Lying in the rest room, the moment I closed my eyes, a blue collar flashed in front of my eyes, like my father, like Captain Juventus, or like Lynn's father beckoning to me, Liu Li smiled at me, standing among the flowers, wearing a red dress, like a lipstick girl's lipstick, but also like the sun's dazzling red......
