Chapter 280: Glorious Image
Song Lan never expected that the education problem would come so suddenly, leaving him unprepared.
He hadn't seriously thought about raising children in his two lives, but now that Lu Xiang said this, he felt that he should really put this issue on the agenda.
Because the educational environment in 2166 is very different from the 2020 he is familiar with, they are popular with compulsory education, and the vast majority of children will go from primary school all the way to high school, but in 2166, school is a direction that only families above the middle class will consider.
And the expensive tuition fees and implanted prostheses are for most middle-class families, and they also want their children to go to school, hoping that their children can be selected by the company in the future and become a "company person".
As for children of the same age whose families cannot afford to go to school......
Most of them have already started to buy weapons and join the gangs.
And there are quite a few "aspiring youths" who have made a name for themselves in the gang.
Even after several rounds of targeted gang crackdowns, the law enforcement department only eliminated the big gangs in the 17th district, and now most of the remnants of the gang have gathered together and scattered around the city to form small gangs, and robberies still occur from time to time.
The only difference is that with the help of the hornworm detection team, the robbers are often caught on the same day.
However, after the return of the border trade routes, many people did go to the mercenary guild to register their identities.
In this city with high unemployment, not minors, even adults must always prevent themselves from being laid off and going home.
The new mayor has set out to address these issues, but the effect of any reforms will not be immediate, especially with large corporations in the way, and it would be a merit that he was able to save employment in the 17th district during his first term.
Song Lan assessed that with his and Lu Xiang's salaries, they could only be regarded as upper-middle-class families in the 17th district, and their income had been greatly reduced because they had offended the Foster family and the inspection department.
In these days, there is no way out for ordinary people.
The purpose of smashing pots and selling iron land for children to study is ultimately to make them become "company people" who are exploited and oppressed by large companies, and the young gangs have no future at all, and sooner or later they will have to enter the bureau.
"Director Lu, what do you think?"
"What do you think?"
Lu Xiang, who was processing this week's documents, raised his head and glanced at Song Lan suspiciously.
"On the issue of children's education."
"You mean Amphia?"
「…… Hmm."
Song Lan hesitated for a moment and did not push the topic too far ahead.
"Respect her personal wishes, if she wants to go to the core area after graduation, I can also find a way to contact her former classmates, since I have said this, I need to pay more attention to her psychological state recently."
Although the large number of military-grade prostheses implanted did not turn Amphia into a cyber maniac, it made her temper very short-tempered, and she belonged to the kind of person who would draw a gun if she didn't agree with her.
This is very common among gang members, but in school, pulling a gun at a classmate can be punished.
"Because of her parents, Anfiya is easy to be teased, and I'm worried that she will be too angry and will send people directly to the hospital."
Again, this is a bit of a tact.
With Anfiya's prosthetic body, once she has murderous intent, she can easily break the neck of an ordinary person even if she doesn't have a gun by her side.
She didn't want to receive a notice from the school one day, telling her that Anfia's child had a conflict with her classmates at school, and then sent the other party directly to the morgue.
"Not really, as long as you show up on the day of the report, the children of those big company executives shouldn't dare to provoke Anfiya."
"Why?"
Lu Xiang was puzzled, judging by her experience as a law enforcer, the children of those big companies were not fuel-efficient lamps, and they usually caused a lot of eucalyptus.
Breaking someone's arms and legs is small, and the backlog of files in the department records many historical legacies of the victims who were beaten to death.
It is not uncommon for the dead to be in the 17th district, and after the crime is committed, their parents pay a sum of money to the family of the deceased, and after intimidating them, the family of the deceased often does not pursue it anymore.
"I looked at the list of their classes, and several of them have left a record with us."
"It used to be like this, but now it's different."
"Haven't you heard?"
Song Lan took on the drunken exaggerated tone of those good deeds in the Gold Digger's Bar, "The people on the road say that the current law enforcer is the boss of the city, and even the new mayor has to look at our faces."
"Who said this, how did I not know?"
This is absolutely blatant slander!
She is strict with herself, and she will not tolerate the unhealthy tendencies within the department, why has the reputation become the same as Chai Ke Group now?
"We have never done anything to threaten the new mayor," she said.
In fact, since Aurelinoa's successful election, they haven't spoken to each other at all, and everyone has a lot of work on their hands.
"Why not? Didn't you go to the new mayor's office and have a big fight with him and then flip someone's desk?"
Song Lan pulled up a small news from her mobile phone, and the headline on it read, "The real mastermind behind the 17th district? - Death threats from law enforcers! 》
"You didn't tell me to go!"
Lu Xiang felt a tightness in his chest, which felt like a dumb loss, but this report was accompanied by a photo of her scaring Aureliano stupidly that day and brushing her sleeves away.
"Your acting skills are amazing, even the new mayor himself was scared by you, but don't worry, later the mayor mentioned this incident in an interview, and he clarified the misunderstanding, saying that this is a trap set to lure the killer to appear, which not only did not damage your image, but was also praised for being brave and resourceful."
Song Lan said, "In short, the glorious image of you is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the executives of those big companies will definitely not want to provoke you in this special period, not to mention that even if Anfiya really has an argument with her classmates, isn't there still Elmon to help watch?"
Almon: That's a good kid.
Mature, calm, and ambitious, Song Lan believes that he will divert the two people on his head before something irreparable happens.
"I've found out."
Lu Xiang took a deep breath, "You did everything, and I carried the pot for you."
"How can this be considered a black cauldron? This glorious image was coveted by the Inspectorate and the Foster family in the past."
"No, if you don't compensate me, I really can't swallow this bad breath."
Having said that, Lu Xiang's face didn't show any anger at all.
"What kind of compensation law?"
"This is not the place to talk."
Lu Xiang glanced at Song Lan, "I'll talk to you in detail when I go home in the evening."
