Gong Xuan's mother, Chen Ziyue, received an invitation letter from the government.

Their family is part of the people living in the A layer. Although there was no hierarchy and class, the edifice was not an egalitarian society. There is still a difference between the relative quality of living conditions. Except for a few people who have special feelings for the F-level and actively stay on the F-level, most of the people choose to live in the higher levels. The government allocates the authority of each level of residence to each person according to the degree of contribution of each citizen in the system. This relatively fair approach has won the approval of the majority of the population.

Gong Xuan's father was a police officer at the Central Police Station of District 8 on the F floor of the coalition government. After the rebels launched by the anti-government forces, he died in a battle with the anti-government forces in the battle against the 8th district. After Gong Xuan's father was killed, the coalition government gave Gong Xuan's family special permission to live on the A floor as the survivors of heroes. Gong Xuan and his mother, who originally lived on the E floor, were taken to the family compound of the martyred heroes in the center of District 2, which borders District 1 of the United Government Headquarters on the A floor.

The government invited Chen Ziyue to attend the inauguration ceremony of the new energy ecological environment residential area in District 13 on the first floor of the A.

Gong Xuan knows that the coalition government has been building new energy ecological environment residential areas in District 13 in recent years. District 13 is a vast and sparsely populated area, and the government has basically not carried out large-scale construction of this area since the establishment of the building era, and in the original plan, this area was used as a blank area for the government to carry out various technological breakthrough research.

With the passage of time, the progress of technology, and the research and development of war technology after the building era, so the scope requirements for the site of various experiments began to weaken. Ten years ago, the coalition government passed a resolution on the construction of a new energy ecological environment in the 13 districts, and the vigorous project kicked off.

On January 9, Gong Xuan did the math, and three days later it was the tenth anniversary of the adoption of this resolution. Mothers, who are the bereaved families of heroes, do qualify for such celebratory events.

However, only Chen Ziyue was invited to the invitation letter, and it was surprisingly emphasized that only Chen Ziyue was allowed to go. This made Gong Xuan inevitably have some doubts in his heart. Since his father's death, he has taken on all the responsibilities of caring for his frail mother, who suddenly became seriously ill during this time, so he took a break from school to take care of his mother in his first year of college.

The government is not unaware of the mother's situation, and even if she is not qualified to participate in the ceremony, it is not necessary for the government to invite the mother alone for the sake of the mother's safety, and it has specifically emphasized it.

He hesitated, but in the end he didn't worry about his mother going alone. He thought that even though only his mother was invited, it probably wouldn't have much of an impact if he had one more person to attend.

He and his mother arrived at District 13 a day early.

It's a vast land. Today, it is a bustling scene. The construction of the new energy ecological environment zone is based on the standard of imitating the F-layer green environmental area of human beings, with the pavilion culture of hundreds or even thousands of years ago, supplemented by modern construction technology and energy supply, and finally took ten years to complete. Those who are fortunate enough to live here will be able to experience the wonder of the combination of human culture and modern technology in the pre-edifice era.

The staff of the ecological zone warmly received the two, and after Gong Xuan explained his intention and reason, the staff hesitated for a moment, and finally acquiesced to Gong Xuan's behavior.

The ceremony took place in an unprecedentedly open square, a vast plain with such a vast space that the surrounding ceremonial platforms and pavilions seemed extremely distant to the people in the middle of the square.

Gong Xuan thought to himself how many people could be standing in such a large square. Ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or more. In his memory, he had never seen a square of this scale. The number of people invited to the inauguration ceremony here must be an astronomical number.

As a matter of fact, when I arrived a day early, it was already crowded with people, and everyone's face was filled with extremely pleasant expressions, and they regarded the invitation of the government as a great honor in their lives.

That night, Gong Xuan and his mother were arranged in a small pavilion near the giant square. Above the pavilion carved with dragons and phoenixes, Gong Xuan could vaguely see the center of the square in the distance, and under the cover of night, the ceremonial platform was dyed with a faint layer of silver-white.

It's late at night, the lights are gone, and most people choose to rest early to prepare for the next day's ceremonies.

It was the first time that Gong Xuan had seen the bright moonlight in the sky more than 6,000 meters above him so closely. Hundreds of years have passed, so many earth-shaking changes have taken place in human society, such a real moonlight, he has never seen it since he was born until he moved to the A floor, and it is the first time he has been so serious and so careful to appreciate such a beautiful scenery.

The moon projected by the system is still too different from the real thing. He couldn't help but sigh.

The grace of nature is not something that humans can easily replicate.

He thought about the events that had taken place in the intervening years. I heard that something strange was going into the building system, and it was rumored that the government was trying to hide this shocking secret from the people. It's just that no one has yet been able to say exactly what the government is hiding.

I don't know when it began, the perfect society brought about by this originally perfect system is slowly deteriorating. The war, which he had never seen before, had actually happened not so long ago, and his father had lost his life. The original rapport between people seems to have changed unconsciously. Gong Xuan couldn't say what had changed, but he vaguely felt that there seemed to be more unexplained and treacherous substances in society, mixed in the relationship between people.

My mother was frail and sickly, and after my father left, I seemed to have become my mother's last and greatest hope, and the world was gradually no longer peaceful, and I should also think about the way forward, so as to better protect my only relative.

He stayed up all night. When the first rays of the morning sun shimmered in the vast sky in the distance, he rubbed his eyes, so close to the sky, in contact with the real unadulterated light.

There was already a crowd of people in the central square.

The opening time of the inauguration ceremony was 10 a.m. sharp. The pavilion was not too far from the central square, and Gong Xuan accompanied his mother to the square half an hour before the opening. There were a lot of people, Gong Xuan and his mother Chen Ziyue stood at the edge of the square, and the figures were very dense when they walked inside, and he didn't want himself and his mother to get lost in the endless stream of people.

The sun is slowly getting warmer in winter, but thanks to the powerful geothermal function of the building system, people are well protected from the cold.

Gong Xuan looked at his watch, the time was already half past ten, half an hour later than the original opening time. There was no movement on the surrounding altars, and there was not the slightest hint of the ceremony about to begin.

The crowd, which had been happily communicating, gradually quieted down. There was already a part of the people in the square who began to complain unconsciously.

Eleven a.m.

A full hour has passed since the opening time, not to mention that there is a sign of the opening of the ceremony, and not even a relevant government official has appeared. Some people are already impatient to leave.

Gong Xuan saw that there seemed to be more people on the tall platform.

He stood near the edge of the square, still a considerable distance from the altar on the edge, and the crowd was so strong that he could only get a rough look.

The figures in the distance moved in an orderly manner, and soon lined up after appearing on the stage. On the ceremonial platform that surrounded the entire huge square, there were soon a line of people standing in a row. Gong Xuan didn't see who it was.

He heard a sudden exclamation in the distance. Voices came from the edge of the square.

The people around him began to talk again, the platform was too far away, and no one here knew what was going on. Exclamations and chattering slowly spread inside. Gong Xuan's faces gradually became frightened when he saw several people a few meters away. There are words in their mouths. Gong Xuan heard the words "government" and "army".

"Da Da Da", "Da Da Da" 、、、、、、

A hurried voice rang out.

The people around him began to panic, and screams filled the crowd at once.

Gong Xuan's face changed drastically.

This is, gunshots.

Above the center of the exit of the ceremonial platform. The four members of Nan Qiyun's group leaned on the railing of the ceremonial platform and looked at the crowd below.

"Team leader, they've been ordered to do it." Chu Han reported to Nan Qiyun.

Nan Qiyun nodded, his expression a little hesitant. "yes, got it."

He thinks that he has been mentally prepared for everything from the beginning, but to this day, when he really faced this scene, his heart was still shaken after all.

The protocol for aggregating these infected people was proposed by 1. Qi Yue asked them to give them a place to execute the infected and provide a corresponding plan, and the government would give full support in the specific implementation. No. 1 is aimed at the previous government's construction plan to develop a new energy ecological environment zone, considering that this area is almost inhabited, and the vast land is convenient for a large number of people to gather, and it is relatively close to the headquarters of the "Heiti" Countermeasures Bureau.

The eco-zone happened to have been completed not long ago. She offered to gather the men on the land in District 13 on the pretext of attending the inauguration ceremony of the eco-zone, and the government, with the cooperation of the military, carried out the corresponding execution plan.

Qi Yue agreed to the No. 1 plan, and notified the government departments and agencies involved in the construction of the new energy ecological environment zone to cooperate with the plan. Considering that there are some infected people who will not participate in the invitation for various reasons, Chu Han then added the treatment of these infected people who do not attend the meeting. The police forces subordinate to the Countermeasures Bureau in each district were ordered to dispatch plainclothes police to carry out covert handling of these people.

This is not at all the ceremonial venue for the construction of the environmental zone, rather, it is a complete slaughterhouse.

Gunfire raged wildly in the square, and people scattered in panic and fell one after another in a dense rain of bullets. Screams, wails, cries, and cries for help came and went.

There are too many people, more than 90 percent of the millions of infected people who accept the invitation, and even if the government transfers a large number of troops, it will not be able to solve all of them in a short period of time.

After a long period of panic, some people finally began to come to their senses, and some of them began to flee towards the exit of the square.

"Intercept." Nan Qiyun ordered.

The exit is the place where the government forces focus on containment, and here is the largest number of main forces, and with the most ferocious and intensive firepower, the infected people fell in batches in a hail of bullets.

The order in the square was chaotic. Gong Xuan pulled his mother to hide in a corner where he could avoid most of the firepower, waiting for the situation to change.

He didn't know why the government was doing this, and he couldn't think of any reason why the government could carry out such a frenzied and barbaric massacre of so many innocent people at once. There has never been a precedent for the government to take the lives of people who commit the most serious crimes in the building system. But now it's happening.

Instinctively driven by the desire to survive, people fled desperately despite the strong fire of the government forces at the exit. The endless crowd frantically pressed towards the exit.

Groups of people fell, and groups of people rushed up. Corpses, piled up.

More than 900,000, nearly a million infected, are constantly attacking the government's containment and firepower network.
