However, Yan Jing didn't know what was going on.

He was busy searching for the whereabouts of a certain child.

After sitting around the playground the day before, the mustard seeds were missing.

"She is a local, but she has a more withdrawn personality, she has always been alone, and even eats behind our backs, every time we look for her, she refuses, and then we don't go." After the little girl finished speaking, she looked around tremblingly: "I heard that their family is a forbidden union and has a criminal record, so she has to live with her grandmother before her parents are released."

The word taboo is all too familiar.

There are strict regulations on marriage and childbirth in the empire, such as royal relatives and nobles can only marry with the opposite sex of the same family background, businessmen and politicians are not allowed to combine with people in the same industry, and high-quality genes above grade B cannot choose a mate independently, etc.

In terms of childbirth, there is no limit to the mental power of grade A or above, and only one or two children can be allowed at BC level, as for others, you need to apply, and you can only get pregnant if you pass the application.

According to their meaning, they will screen for excellent genes and slowly eliminate secondary humans.

This has also caused that for a long time, people who have no mental strength or low-level humans have been ostracized everywhere, and they can only run to the suburbs in piles to do those smuggling and poaching and other tasks to make a living.

In this cycle, the empire on the surface is glamorous, and even the construction workers are middle-level humans, but the truth is that as many as ten percent of ordinary people have become criminals of last resort and have been exiled to other planets.

Yan Jing had seen them write a bill, and the marriage law was more than 300 pages long, which made him staggered.

Obviously, mustard seeds are also one of the combined products of these 'lawless' human beings.

Yan Jing gave full play to his eloquent nature, and skillfully talked to others.

"She's also a classmate, and the textbook says that you can't leave your companions behind to help each other, and Mustard Seed disappeared after discussing it with us, should we go find her?"

He also has no way, his terminal is still in the intensive care ward of the alliance with his body, and now this does not support him to hack into the network at all, not to mention, Inlai, as a first-class military school, has done a very strict job of information protection.

And when he went to inquire just now, he got the news that the school would take care of everything, so he didn't have to worry.

Of course, Yan Jing also understands that they are just preparing for cold treatment.

Inle advocates fairness, they will accept students like Mustard who are admitted to the school by virtue of their strength, but they will not give preferential treatment, and will even show her life experience so that her classmates can get along with the situation.

The parents are still in prison for their private union, and the grandmother at home is old, even if she dies, there is no one to ask for an explanation, and the school will certainly not care.

But this conflicts with Yan Jing's people-oriented philosophy.

Soon, Anji replied: "Mustard Seed's home is at No. 659, Sanwu Lane, Bajiao Street, not far from here, we can go over and have a look."

It was an urban village, and it was also the last gathering place for ordinary people in Inle, and I heard that it would be demolished and rebuilt in two days for reasons that would affect the aesthetics, and I don't know if it will compensate the residents.

Anji's treasurer dad, it's so good.

Yan Jing asked Anji to send the address and went out by himself.

He had also been in Inle for two years before, so he was familiar with the road and arrived soon on a shared airship.

He really didn't expect that there was such a place behind the Octagon Street, which was known for the antique trade—a whole capsule-shaped house dwelling in square inches, the outside was full of debris, black grease and erosive unknown goo piled up at the mouth of the sewer, full of flies, and the doors of each house were made of discarded iron pieces or industrial waste, which looked like they were pretending to be not protected from wind or rain.

Yan Jing couldn't imagine how to live in such a place.

A glamorous human like Yan Jing was not common here, and the ragged people poked their heads out curiously and quickly retracted them.

"Do you know Mustard Seed, she is studying at Inle Academy." Yan Jing watched for a long time, and only found a young man who was willing to talk.

The man nodded in a hurry: "At the last house, the little girl hasn't been out since she came back in the afternoon, and my daughter didn't call out when she went to play with her."

"This afternoon?"

The man touched his head and muttered, "I don't have a good memory, it seems to be just now and it seems to be yesterday... Forget it, you'd better go and see for yourself. ”

At this time, Yan Jing was not too worried, but when he arrived at the door and saw the situation inside, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

In the center of the hall was a coffin, which looked to be a few days old, emitting a foul smell and a rotten smell coming from nowhere, running from the nasal cavity to the internal organs, making it impossible to breathe.

Yan Jing shouted the mustard name a few times, but did not reply, he said sorry to the air, and then bent down and walked in.

The space inside is unobstructed, even a whole room, and the coffin is piled with miscellaneous items next to it, and there is a curtain on each side, which seems to be a sleeping place.

There is almost nowhere to put his feet, and the whole space is dusty, and it is only thanks to the holes in the ceiling that there can be a little light, which is also the status quo of most ordinary people who have been exiled by the Empire.

Yan Jing walked over with a cold expression and arrived in front of the coffin.

Lying inside was an old man, with goosebumps, dry like an old tree, judging from the corpse spots on his body, he had walked for at least three days, but strangely, there were corpse spots and corpses that stinked but did not decompose.

You know, although it is late summer, the weather is still hot.

Yan Jing frowned, turned this place upside down, and finally found mustard seeds in the wooden pile in the southeast.

To be precise, the corpse of a mustard seed.

Yan Jing looked at the mustard seeds who were still talking yesterday, and died quietly in his own home, together with his grandmother, which was quite unpleasant.

But there were no external injuries or internal injuries to the mustard seed's body, and it looked like he was asleep, and Yan Jing was in a mess for the first time.

Now in order to save land and resources, the deceased will have a special funeral agency, without a trace, and the ashes will be made into diamonds for their loved ones, which only costs very little money, so he can't quite understand why Mustard's grandmother has been dead for so long and no one has collected the body.

And why did the mustard seed die violently?

Yan Jing popped up the terminal and was about to make a call to the school, but he didn't know if it was inferior or what, he couldn't connect to the star network, he carried the body of mustard seeds and put it on the bed, and came to the door.

The terminal is still red.

It's weird, usually the star network is not so difficult to link, and today it seems that something has a big failure.

He was about to find something to repair himself when a familiar feed came from the terminal.

At the same time, "Yan Jing, what are you doing at my house?" ”

Yan Jing suddenly froze in place.

For from the slender shadow on the ground, he saw a man who should not have been standing behind him.
