Chapter 287: Expectations
"Our previous generation, about thirty or forty years ago, was not like this......"
The background is still the volcanic area, and since it has been decided that it will be "sold" to the fire-loving red dwarves, this area naturally needs to be preserved.
The special service teams also followed the order and began their own work.
Some of the new monsters are being exterminated, and the shaman of the Red Dwarf Clan has already been contacted, but it will take a week to arrive at the earliest, and during this period, a certain "maintenance cost" is required.
And for Lu Ping'an, this is a good thing....... In the middle of the volcano, a red beast egg is still absorbing nutrients and geothermal heat and hatching.
Give it more nutrients and time, and it should become more complete.
Part of the Secret Service went back to sleep...... The first and fourth teams were all on the battlefield again after completing a three-day continuous rotation, and now they have already reached their limit, and it is time to relax.
The battlefield here is left to the fifth and third teams...... It's just that the two teams get along with each other is still a little embarrassing, mainly because the five teams are not very upset now.
But the work still has to be done, and before the reinforcements of the "gods" arrive, the regular clearance must be done, and compared to the previous stubbornness, the pressure has actually been greatly reduced.
For some reason, the strength of the newborn monsters has also weakened significantly, and even the temperature and otherworldly sense of this exotic land are obviously not as strong as before.
The reason for this is intriguing, but it is naturally a good thing for those on duty.
A blockade has been erected on the periphery, and the inside is regularly disposed of...... The only thing worth mentioning is probably that before the first and fourth teams left, several teams joined together and cleaned up the fourth and fifth floors of this shopping mall.
Then they were tired and tired of what to do.
Only the full-time captain Lu Jun not only did not leave, but also pulled Lu to talk safely in high spirits.
Looking at the volcano that seemed to be sleeping, he seemed to fall into the memories of the past, and told Lu Ping'an about the past.
“...... My previous generation, at that time, the mystery was still in the shadows, and we secret keepers were real secret walkers, and everyone was actually very envious of ordinary people in the light, who could live a comfortable and carefree life......"
Lu Jun's eyes seem to have traveled through time and the past.
In his old days as a child, the gods and mortals were not as close as they are now, and all kinds of strange creatures and supernatural phenomena were out of public view.
A night watchman secretly guarding the safety of the public? Oh, it's just some unlucky guys who lost their daily lives because of an accident.
Life has entered the countdown, and in order to continue life, it must be advanced, and it must step into this extremely dangerous and gloomy world, and exchange combat exploits for higher-level knowledge and resources.
Perhaps, it also saved a lot of people along the way.
But there are some things that are done, done, and can't be stopped.....
"It's already a rotten life, at least the starting point works....."
His father, uncle, and grandfather all came over like this, counting the days and staying up for years.
It's just that sometimes I stay up, and what I want the most is still .....
“...... Many people even curse their fate, curse why it is themselves, why everyone else can live like a person, but what they desire most is that the exploits of their predecessors are known, and the sacrifices of their companions are remembered, not when they fall, there is not even a place for the corpse to be buried......"
Lu Jun looked at Lu Ping'an, and sure enough, it was a smiling but indifferent face, this young man did not pretend to be afraid, did not express loyalty, and did not even listen to his heart.
Lu Jun smiled, the times are really different, and young people in the new era have their own ideas.
“...... When I first became a secret keeper, the times were different, at that time, many secrets had been forced to be made public, and the personnel at the bureau level basically had an understanding of pollution and occupation, and the pressure of dealing with them increased day and night, so that the power of the Church of the Gods increased wildly, and the so-called righteous god access system was also established at that time, by the way, there is also a special service system....."
The blades under the shadow of the original, independent hunting organizations, began to gradually come to the front line, forming a special service police force system directly under the government.
There is no other reason, it is exactly the same as now, it is only because the original "manpower reserve" is not enough, and the establishment needs to be expanded to deal with more and more supernatural cases.
“...... Now, it is obvious that there is another round of expansion, the army and the big war regiments are pulling in various large exotic regions and battle fronts, even in relatively safe cities, it is not enough to just be a 'police' official force, perhaps, a large number of civilian forces will be drawn next, so what is it? The era of the Great Militia? Or is it the era of national superman? ”
Lu Jun's words are full of self-deprecation, what is this? In order to avoid the expansion of polluting knowledge, my ancestors and fathers have done a lot of things in order to keep secrets and even kill people, and now they are directly teaching them?
into the eye, full of strange and unacceptable new gadgets, put in their grandfather.... No, when I was young, let alien gods settle in the city? A crime against humanity, direct death is a light sentence.
Now, what used to be regarded as a felony is regarded as an everyday act, and although it is not incomprehensible, it always feels uncomfortable in every way, very uncomfortable.
Is his party a remnant of the old era, or a stepping stone to the new era?
In the end, all the exclamations can only be reduced to one sentence.....
"Times have changed.....
Lu Ping'an has seen, heard, and thought, and other people are not blind, so they naturally have their own plans.
Lu Ping'an smiled, but he was a little impatient in his heart, his time is quite precious, not to listen to your memories.
What's next? Moral education or family and country feelings?
"Do you think that when I came to you to say this, I asked you to work hard, work hard, and fight to protect your family and defend the country? Huh".
Isn't it? Lu Jun's sudden smile made Lu Ping'an a little surprised.
"No, I'm just saying that in the flood of times, we are nothing. We are only a special force, and in the end, we are only members of the 'law and order' force, and catching supernatural criminals is our limit. If you want to do something bigger, there will naturally be a stronger organization and a bigger stage to welcome you. ”
Lu Jun was very calm, there was a reason for him to find Lu Ping'an to talk privately, whether it was the information that was so high in secrecy that the deputy director of the local alien management bureau could not access it, and the potential that the young man was showing now, he was sure of it......
“....... You will definitely have a bigger stage in the future, but for now, you are a police officer, and policing is your job, so as long as it is for the order within the scope of work, you let it go and do it........."
I can't say this too clearly, but Lu Ping'an understands.
What provides order? Strength.
What is Strength? Stronger equipment and more human resources mean that such taboo things as "smuggling arms" and "secretly hoarding arsenals" will be fully protected by them.
If the Red Dwarf Clan's arsenal was really established in the Zion District, several special forces in the entire Zion District would be fully tied to it at this time.
As the patron of order, Lu Jun did not try to suppress the ambition of young people, nor did he try to find out the secrets that young people must hide.
"Your previous performance has proven your position, and it's enough. There's going to be a lot of pressure on you to do the next thing, and I'm going to help you with that. But you have to promise that as long as you are still in your post, you will do your 'law and order' work. We are short of people, very short of people. ”
After speaking, he seemed to notice that the atmosphere was a little heavy, and he also squeezed out a smile.
"You're still young, don't think too far, and don't see only the negative like us old people. We are all locals, or unlucky people huddled together for warmth, and when we can, we will naturally shelter each other. Our power is limited, and it is already the limit to be able to keep a place safe. If you really have the ability, there will naturally be a bigger stage in the future, and it will really develop when the time comes, if you remember the little bit of affection in the initial stage......."
He was silent for a moment, then added.
“..... Don't forget, help the villagers get a few more tickets. ”
