Just past 0 o'clock

One is located on the ground floor near the outer circle, two men carry a bag of things, and after looking left and right for a while, they walk briskly towards a dilapidated no-man's land not far away, most of the houses here have been abandoned, and some black homeless beggars will live here for a short time.

Soon the two men turned and walked into a somewhat dilapidated wooden three-story house, and when they entered, there was a foul smell, and the two of them sat down on the ground and put the food they were carrying.

There were more than a dozen people in the house, all of whom didn't seem to be in good spirits.

"Is it already dead?"

A man spoke, and a woman in the corner whimpered, constantly tearing her body, and her fingers just scratched the skin, and the skin was directly peeled off easily, and she watched in horror.

"I'm scared, I'm going to die, I'm going to die."

In the corner of the room, there were three men who had been dead for a long time, and the whole room was silently eating food, and everyone looked extremely weak without exception.

At this moment, with a glimmer of light, a tall man raised his fingers, and a faint white particle was released, and the light in the room was brighter.

"Don't use telekinesis anymore, it will accelerate organ failure."

A man who was nibbling bread said, the man leaned against the corner, smiling slightly, his face was full of four colors, everyone's skin looked very weird, as dry and rough as old bark, casually buttoned, a layer of skin was directly detained.

"What the hell are we?"

At this time, someone asked, and for a while more than a dozen people in the room were silent, and some women began to cry.

"It's nothing, just a bunch of protein synths."

Someone mockingly said that everyone in the room has a string of numbers on the back of their hands, starting with CL, with numbers in the middle and ONE at the end.

A few months ago, they had just escaped, and only a few hundred of them managed to escape, and after a few months, there were only about 10 people left, all of them clones.

At this time, there was a sound of leather shoes on the street outside, stepping on the empty street stone slab very crisply, and more than ten people in the house were nervous for a while.

"I saw that Lolita was ....... by a researcher"

Squeak

The door of the room opened, and for a moment the two mutants in the corner slammed into it, but in an instant, their eyes widened, and their necks were directly broken.

Jean watched silently at the room full of clones, the last of the clones to escape from the accident a few months ago.

"What are we, you demon? What exactly have you done to us. ”

Without any hesitation, Jean walked in with a cold gaze, looking at a few clones who were still eating, he just watched quietly.

"Finish eating first! There's still a little time. ”

Some people cried, some laughed, some cursed angrily, Jean took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff, this is the final finishing touch, the future cloning plan has been successful, tomorrow Congress will announce to the whole city, the official success of the life vaccine, blight, deformity, abnormal defects in the body growth process, infertility can be officially solved, in the next few months, the whole city will be injected, and the most exciting thing is that the DNA length of the currently successful life life vaccine is accurately measured, The lifespan of human beings can be extended to at least 140 years, and according to individual differences, especially mutants, they can even live up to 200 years old.

The taboo door of medicine has been completely broken, and even for some specific individuals, there are two and three types of life expectancy vaccines, and the ultimate life span of human beings has been first explored.

In recent years, the fertility rate has been almost close to zero, and if it continues, the whole society will be overwhelmed, and now the socio-economic structure has begun to decline.

"Tell me, what are we!"

A woman wept and kept stuffing bread into her mouth, and the rest of the room knew that it was useless to resist, and even if they didn't, they would only have a few days to a month or two left at most.

"I'm sorry!"

Jean bowed as he spoke, and the moment he turned around, a female mutant screamed angrily and rushed at Gene, only to have her neck snapped off soon after.

Jean stepped out of the room, closed the door, and watched a recovered take-off and landing plane slowly drive in the distance.

Gradually, the take-off and landing plane fell, Tang Rao walked out of the take-off and landing plane with a cigarette in her mouth, she glanced at the house, and the smell of blood in the air.

"You could have waited for them to die a natural death."

"It's a torment for them to continue, so I'll leave it to you here."

Tang Rao patted Jean on the shoulder.

"I don't need you to comfort me, I won't stop, I won't look back on the past, everything in the past has been buried, and a new era will come."

"I'm not talking about this, what are you pretending to be deep, come in and help me."

Tang Rao kicked the door open with a big kick, closed her eyes and walked in.

"Remember! We've all promised those who have passed away that a new era will come, don't hesitate not to be confused, Jean, if even you ......."

The bitterness on Jean's face vanished, and he pressed his hand to his chest.

"Whether we're alive or dead, I've been getting less and less able to hear my own heartbeat lately."

"Idiot, that's because Noah and Noah, the two boys, led the students of 10 subjects to create a power suppressor specially for us, after all, if we don't think about it, our own power can't be controlled by consciousness."

Jean smiled, and the two began to carry the clone's body onto the landing plane.

0:18

In the seminary, the students were busy putting some machinery on the take-off and landing planes.

Several major events that happened last year have finally stabilized now, but the thing that made the students of the whole school feel uneasy was the prison riot, although Song Man had told a lot of students about the time, but the students were most concerned about the fact that the principal Jean had dealt with it himself, and the prison riot ended 1 hour after Jean arrived.

C, R, and K never revealed what exactly happened in the prison, but the whole thing was completely suppressed, and people in the city didn't even know that there was a prison riot on this day last year.

Alpha asked Jean many times what was going on, but many people guessed it to some extent, and according to what Latis saw several times when he went back and forth to prison, everyone knew more or less about how Jean personally dealt with it.

The equipment, which will be delivered to the prison tonight, was developed by the students of 10 subjects, a kind of light and shadow collar, which all inmates will need to wear in the future, no matter when and where.

This kind of neck ring, which is difficult to disassemble after wearing, once the prisoner forcibly disassembles it, will release a high-voltage current, which can instantly subdue the prisoner, while the mutant is slightly different, because the mutant himself is physically strong, and even if he is subjected to a high-voltage current, he can still retain consciousness.

This kind of collar also has a function, the mechanism located behind the collar can shoot light through the prisoner's skin, and the moment it is directly embodied inside, it can destroy the prisoner's central nervous system, and can make the prisoner lose his ability to move in an instant.

Once the central nervous system is destroyed, it is basically tantamount to a dead person, and last year's prison riot, nearly 600 stewards and administrators, of whom 318 died, and the others were more or less severely traumatized.

Of the 5,798 prisoners who died, 3 percent of the prisoners, especially female prisoners, died at the hands of some male prisoners, and the remaining 7 percent were all executed directly by Jean.

"Are you going to my house this year?"

Alpha asked, Latis, who was checking the light and shadow collar, she shook her head, took a puff of cigarette, and smiled and came to Alpha's side.

"We'll go back in a few days, let's go shopping and buy some clothes."

Alpha shook his head.

"Why do we buy clothes, we can't take off this uniform."

"Then you can always wear it in the dormitory, after all, we're girls, aren't we?"

Alpha smiled and nodded.

At this time, looking at Noah, who was scratching his head and passing in front of him, Alpha stared at him with a little anger for a while.

"Noah, are you going today? I ask you one last time, there is a limit to my patience. ”

For a moment Noah didn't seem to hear, and Noah laughed.

"I'll go."

"You go aside, you guy with your own cold field effect."

Alpha said as Noah suddenly stopped.

"I almost forgot, I'll go."

Alpha snorted, and Noah laughed.

"How could I forget."

"By the way, where did that guy go?"

At this point, Clark asked.

"He went out with Huashen before, and many students from the 4th subject also went out."

The students of the 4th department, who had left the basement three months ago, had been vaccinated and seemed to be more cheerful, and from time to time they would go to hospitals around the city to continue their medical internships.

Most of the students choose to take a three-day break and continue to travel around the city to review the affairs of their counterparts in the 120 ward management offices.

Tomorrow there will be a news release that will shake the whole city, the successful development of the longevity vaccine, everyone in the city can be injected, and the hospital clinics will be extremely busy during this time, and the vaccines are free to be injected.

The vaccine factory in Montenegro has begun to distribute vaccines to major medical companies in advance as early as one month ago, and now the vaccine reserve is enough for 20 million people to be vaccinated, and the current urban population is 17 million.

It is only a matter of time before the vaccine is announced, and it will begin to be delivered from the warehouses of major medical companies to every injection site that has been designated in the city, and it will be possible to vaccinate everyone in the city in a maximum of 3 months.

A new era is coming, but there are 4 million people with an average age of about 55 years old, they are the founders of the first cities, and the role of vaccines for them is already minimal.

In recent years, the largest industry in the city is the funeral industry, the arrival of an aging society is accompanied by the rise in mortality, this industry is currently the hottest industry, because there are more than 4 million elderly people, will die in the next 10 to 30 years.

In recent years, the development of cities has been very slow, the unemployment rate and the employment rate have basically reached a close level, the development of all walks of life has almost come to a standstill, and most of them cannot find workers, so they can only go to the grain base in the east to carry out planting and land reclamation work.

In the early years, some people said that it would be faster to simply use machinery, but now many people seem to understand that if they really use machinery, then most of the people who can't find a job will starve to death.

Cities have become more and more fixed, and many industries have become completely saturated, almost unsalable.

It's just that since June last year, four security stations have been built in four directions, south, east, and west, and such a huge project has alleviated a large number of jobs, and at the top of the mountain, a large number of workers have poured into the upper floors, and the entire mountain has been reclaimed, although I don't know what the gods are going to do, but the employment gap has been alleviated.

Many jobs in the city have been stabilized, and the pace of urban development has been completely slowed down.

At the beginning of the new year every year, it is as lively as ever, and the streets and alleys are immersed in the atmosphere of the festival.

Frye walked on a street on the ground floor, he didn't wear a uniform, but wrapped his body tightly, many of the lower floors are hit by rain and snowflakes every year, and the temperature is relatively low, such nights, the temperature is minus 10 degrees.

Soon Fry entered an alley, and after nearly 20 minutes of continuous shuttle through the alley, Frye came to a place full of garbage, he picked up the garbage, and soon found a staircase entrance that went down, and after entering, he could see a large amount of garbage piled up.

In a small room on the third basement floor, Fry took a tube of potion, woke up the clone Lolita lying on the bed, and injected her with the potion, at this time the clone Lolita was very weak, and after the potion injection, she curled up in pain.

"I'll put these things here, I'll come here once a month."

Frye was about to get up as he spoke, and a hand grabbed him.

"Can't you come once a week?"

Frye shook his head and smiled bitterly, he didn't know what he was doing, why he rescued this clone Lolita in last year's accident, it was just a disturbing place in his heart that made Frye want to continue his research on cloning.

"I'm sorry, that's all I can do for you, maybe ........"

With a touch of coldness, Lolita put her hand in Fry's clothes from behind and pressed it to his chest.

"Wrong, maybe you've realized Frye, this kind of research is wrong."

Frye didn't answer, just lowered his head, and the scenes in the laboratory kept coming to mind in his mind.

"Even if you get a long life, human beings will always repeat the mistakes of the past, which will only prolong the suffering of human beings, have you ever thought that many people will need to spend a long time in depression and depression for the next 100 years?"

Frye snorted.

"You've told me about Monica, is this really the new era she wants? Frye, is this really the new era that Nabe and Kull want to see? Or is it the new era you want to see? ”

Frye sat down, and the clone Lolita gently hugged Frye from behind.

"Why! You are obviously a clone of Lolita-sensei, you should know what is the most urgent thing in her heart, you should know that she is for this ........"

A hand was placed on Fry's mouth, and Lolita, the clone, gently rested her head on Fry's shoulder.

"A new era? For humanity? It's just that human beings continue to pull each other up, transition from one era to another, and the human beings who can survive in the end are only the ones who are chosen after everything has been prepared. ”

Frye was a little surprised, the clone Lolita pressed the door of his head, although his memory was a little confused, but these plans were more or less mentioned to Lolita by the seven gods.

"Please don't think of me as your teacher Lolita, in the past six months of experiments, I have thought a lot, we will all die one day, everything we do when we are alive after we die, in fact, has nothing to do with us, no matter what we do in the end leads to good or bad results, in fact, it has nothing to do with us! Lolita may have volunteered to take everything on her back and become a pioneer, but I'm different. ”

Lolita, the clone, said, stood up, took one of the coats that Frye had brought with her, and draped it over her body.

"You know Frye, I was thinking a few months ago about what death meant to us, before the experiment was successful! It's nothing, human beings have opened the forbidden door of life, which will lead to countless tragedies in the future, if the Lolita you know, is a pioneer, then I am a divergent, I don't agree with this way, in the past, maybe in my ontology, in her thinking, I agree with all this, but in my thinking, in everything I see, I don't agree with this way, in my opinion, many students who participated in the experiment have different degrees of psychological problems, You're the same Frye. ”

Frye was silent, he didn't know what to say, but after a moment Frye exhaled.

"I live in grief every night!"

"You are a child who is extremely cowardly and inferior in your heart, you are used to looking for light from other people, as if you follow Monica, you feel warmth from her, as if when you met Nabekul father and daughter, you saw the light from them, when you met Jean twice, you also felt the light from him, and then you met Huashen, maybe you felt a strong light from him, and then you entered the school, and you saw countless lights, The light, which is so strong that it can burn you, comes together. ”

Frye trembled slightly, keeping her head down, and Lolita hugged Frye's head and gently hugged him into her arms.

"You've been chasing these lights all your life, but have you gotten them? Have you ever held the light? ”

Frye shook his head, his eyes moistening slightly.

"I can't teach you anything Fry, but the only thing I can tell you is that at this moment, I am bright in my heart, because I see what will happen to human beings in the future, this misery will be slowed down by the extension of life, and finally under the nurturing of time, this misery will be infinitely magnified, which is cruel to everyone in the future, has Lolita ever thought about this? She may have thought about it, but she also ignored what happens to people who have been bathed in the sun for a long time when the sun disappears one day. One day, two days, three days may be bearable, how strong the light is, how dark the shadows are, everything will continue to repeat itself, I can't turn a blind eye, so I will make my own choice! You have to help me Fry. ”

Looking at each other, Frye trembled slightly, and what he thought of in his mind was more Hua Shen, who chose to silently quit at the beginning of this experiment and use another way to help the students of the 4 subjects, may have realized at the beginning that opening the door of medical taboos is a tragic thing for human beings.

There must be a cause and an effect, and when this price is constantly amplified in the brewing of time, no one can predict what will usher in in the end.

"You have to help me Fry, no matter what the future holds, I just want to be able to see it clearly, and cut the chains of this tragedy with my own hands, so that I can live, you have to help me Fry."

Frye looked at Lolita in a daze, as if he had made a decision in his heart, but his own cowardice and inferiority made Frye feel that he could not bear all this.

"I probably won't be able to!"

Lolita let go of Frye and shook her head.

"I don't need you to do it, I just need you as a doctor, I'll do the rest, you don't have to choose, if you have selfish intentions, I'll help you do it, resurrect Nabe and Kul, two people dear to you."

Fry's eyes widened, and for a moment the tears that had already filled his eyes slipped down, and Lolita stretched out a finger and pressed it on Fry's cheek, and held up a crystal tear with her fingertips and put it in her mouth.

"No matter how many times, let me live as long as Frye, I've decided, I may die countless times, resurrect countless times, what Lolita can bear, I can too!"

Frye nodded his head slightly, he lowered his head, and couldn't hold back crying for a while, every sad point in the past was oppressing Frye like a nightmare every night, he could only continue to bask in the sun, and he could temporarily forget the darkness behind him, because he couldn't sink into the darkness, and he couldn't catch the light, he couldn't do anything, he could only look at the light and darkness in front of him, constantly clashing, and the result of the conflict was that countless tragedies were created, artificially created.

"I....... Want revenge....... But....... I don't have the power! ”

Frye squatted on the ground in pain, the anger in his heart for the Hillman family, at this moment completely exploded, he thought about tearing the Hillman family apart countless times, but he couldn't do it, Fry has no power, no power, these two are too far away for him.

"Don't worry about Fry, one day, someone will do everything for you, you should have realized that the people with light in their hearts hide the bottomless darkness!"

Fry's eyes widened, and for a split second she had only one person in her mind, Alpha.

.......

"It's been revealed, I'm miserable."

Su Xin lowered her head and looked at Lewen opposite with an embarrassed face.

"It's okay, I'll accompany you home, after all, I'm your boyfriend now!"

Su Xin pouted dissatisfiedly and looked to the side.

"Forget it, my mother will definitely not agree, you will be scolded by her to the point of a headache."

Le Wen shook his head, got up and dragged Su Xin out, at this time a lot of snowflakes fell in the sky, and it began to snow again, and the two of them ran in the snowflakes like children.

"I'm about to graduate, and I have a year to go, and I'll start a business with my friends after graduation, but can you marry me first?"

Su Xin blushed, but her head still nodded firmly.

"Maybe the days will be a little harder in the future, I plan to settle at the bottom of the floor, everything is cheap there, and I don't like the atmosphere of the middle and upper classes very much, I always feel uncomfortable."

Su Xin stopped, smiled and walked to Lewen's side with his hands behind his back.

"Don't be in such a hurry, the days ahead are still very long, aren't they!"

Lewen nodded.

"Although I don't know what kind of life I can give you in the future, I promise that I will always love you."

Su Xin's somewhat dissatisfied hand pressed Lewen's mouth.

"Why do you like to say this kind of thing more and more lately, the same thing, you only need to say it once, and the rest of it just needs to be buried in your heart!"

Lewen was a little surprised, Su Xin ran up, at this time the snow sprinkled in the sky began to decrease, the two walked through the crowd, this year's festival, the two came to the most lively middle ring street, planning to spend seven days together happily.

The food and accommodation here are not too expensive, the key is that there are really a lot of things to eat, and the taste is very good.

It's not uncommon for couples like the two to frolic in the streets, and most of them are holding hands, looking at the young couple and smiling knowingly.

It's just that there are people on the street who have just experienced bitterness, Gu Lin just came out of the taste of food, she was a little drunk, and wanted to find Wu Qun, hoping to get some advice from him, but unfortunately Wu Qun only said one word.

"If you really like him, go with him, no matter what he's hiding!"

"What is it, old Wu, this is called a suggestion?"

Gu Lin stomped his feet in a hurry, Fit inexplicably broke up with himself yesterday, Gu Lin didn't know what he was thinking at all, in the past two years, he and Fit have gotten along very happily, but because of his work, the two get together less and leave more, but Gu Lin really likes him.

Just after walking a few steps, Gu Lin staggered and almost fell, she was too drunk, and soon she disappeared into an alley, and after vomiting out the contents of her stomach after a while, Gu Lin finally felt a lot better.

"Miss, are you alright?"

A hand wearing black leather gloves stretched out coldly, and although Gu Lin was unconscious, he still said vigilantly.

"Sir, don't worry about me, it's only 5 meters from the street, please stay away."

Gu Lin supported her body, and at this time she was just about to scream, the man wearing a black mask in front of her was holding a tablet, on which was a video, and Fit was picking up things in the room and smashing them on the ground, looking extremely angry.

"It's a field surveillance video, not a recorded lady."

For a while, Gu Lin sobered up a little.

"What do you want to do?"

"Take you to Mr. Fett, Mr. Fett has not been very obedient lately, we have found the reason, if you want, you can go and accompany Mr. Fett, we will provide you with everything."

Gu Lin looked at Fitt in the video in a daze, his fist had been smashed and was bleeding, but he was still roaring angrily.

Gu Lin glanced around, she was already blocked by six or seven people in black, and she knew very well that she had no way to refuse.

"I'll go."
