Chapter 899: Returning Home (Part I)
4 a.m
Lewen walked quietly on the street, just from the northwest 3rd Street where his home is located, that street is now crowded, and the originally narrow street is now impassable.
At this time, the situation in the entire 118 district is the same, it is obviously late at night, but all the street shops in the entire district have been lit up, and some mutants can be seen carrying large light and shadow storage boxes, waiting for the checkout at the door of some shops.
The neon lights filled the streets, the streets were full of people, and the people of Section 5 were constantly investigating, and some people complained that they had been checked three or four times.
Le Wen quietly stared at the small light and shadow screen in his hand, which was still reporting on the events of Area 79, Le Wen's face looked a little serious, especially after seeing the corpse of the transformed person who was allowed to shoot on the screen, Le Wen's mood was heavy.
Colorful Medical Prosthetics Company, once Lewen worked in this company, as one of the main leaders of the development department.
In the rapid development of the city, usually accompanied by the occurrence of accidents, some people who are disabled in accidents, the next life is like falling into the abyss, the development of medical prosthetics is imperative, Le Wenyi and friends have no hesitation to devote themselves to the trend of ergonomics and mechanical engineering.
Having a group of like-minded friends is far more important than anything else, and a group of them worked hard day and night to carry out research work, and finally established the medical mechanical prosthetic company Color.
Mechanization is an indispensable existence in the future, and it is also a problem that human beings cannot escape, but their concept has never been to replace the role of machines with humans, but to become the helpers of humans.
The lofty concept has always been the support point of Lewen and his friends, and the days at that time were really difficult, Lewen would often visit the homes of some businessmen, hoping to get financial support, but the result was in vain.
It was during this period of time that Lewen met Su Xin, and he fell in love with this woman at a glance, and finally this woman broke through the resistance of the family without hesitation and eloped with Lewen.
They came to District 118 and have settled here ever since, even after Lewen and his friends finally got the funds and successfully founded the colorful company, with money Lewen did not move to the upper floor.
Colorful became the only company in the Bright City that had the technology to produce mechanical prosthetics, and it was at this time that an order from Section 10 disrupted their original pace, and they were required to develop a prosthetic limb for combat, and Section 10 provided them with a large number of corpses that had already undergone mechanical modification of the inside of their bodies.
There is a disagreement in the company, although the medical mechanical prosthetic has completely occupied the market, but can not continue to expand, of course they know what the department wants, combat special machinery, how strong the human body is, but with the passage of time, the function of the human body will decline, but the machinery will not, only need regular maintenance, broken can also be replaced.
The company began to change, with a large amount of money pouring in, and some technology that they didn't know about, and the company was also under the control of the bureau, and the originally dynamic company became dead.
Lewen is resolutely opposed, such a project as a mechanical biochemical transformation man, began to start within the company, forced to helpless, Lewen can only lead the team to develop, after the integration of the technology of each part, can make this mechanical biochemical transformation of people move.
It was at this time that Lewen's daughter Le Xiao was born, and the technology of transforming people became more and more mature.
"Husband, Lele has broken her head, now in the hospital, you hurry up."
One day, Le Wen received a call from his wife, Le Xiao fell directly from the third floor because he was naughty, his head fell to the ground, and he was sent to the hospital for rescue, which was when Le Xiao was 3 years old.
Although the operation was successful that day, the doctor also said that Le Xiao may have speech and physical difficulties when he wakes up, and even some complications in the later stage, so he can only recuperate slowly, and Le Wen resigned from his job as the director of the development department the next day and returned home, wanting to take care of his daughter with his wife.
However, a strange thing happened, Le Xiao's broken head was completely healed in just a week, and there was no abnormality in the body at all, Le Wen, who is an expert in biology, sensed the specificity of his daughter, and with doubts, he extracted Le Xiao's cells.
The discovery of a shocking phenomenon of cell innovation, the genome in the body also began to proliferate, which is a sign of becoming a mutant person, but very happy Wen injected Le Xiao with a gene stabilizer developed in the laboratory, this drug that was originally used for genetic stability in the mutant human body, after the injection, the genome proliferation phenomenon in Le Xiao's body was eliminated.
However, the phenomenon of cell innovation has not disappeared, and the situation in the company has become increasingly serious, and many people have been forced to sign confidentiality regulations with the business department, and soon everyone in the company will be taken to the 10 departments to continue research.
Lewen was most worried about the physical condition of his daughter Lexiao, because if the body awakens prematurely and becomes a mutant, there is a very big risk of death, but Lewen does not dare to take his daughter to the hospital, if this phenomenon of cell innovation is found in his daughter, his daughter may only be able to live in the laboratory in the future.
In the end, Le Wen took advantage of the gap within the company to create a bioconductive substance from the biological matter that connected the mechanical and flesh nerves in the modified human body at that time, and this biological substance between living and inanimate can stabilize the abnormal activity of those special innovative cells in his daughter's body.
Lewen explained to Su Xin, this thing must be worn by Le Xiao for a long time, Lewen doesn't want his daughter's affairs to be exposed, he just hopes that his daughter will grow up healthy and happy like an ordinary person, and she doesn't need to achieve any lofty ideals or lofty goals.
After that, there was an accident in the laboratory, and Lewen is still wondering why such an accident occurred, which is still a mystery, when they completed the implantation of the brain-controlled chip at the core of the biochemical mechanical transformation man for the department, the biochemical robot that was originally operating normally suddenly launched an attack.
Many researchers were killed on the spot, especially those of the high-level models, who were so powerful that they were desperate, and the department came to stop them in time, and after being asked about something, they were told to go home first.
The accident caused an uproar in the community, and it also included another project of the company, the Virtual Sleep Project, which was later exposed one by one.
Lewen originally planned to go home that day, but when he went to the subway, he was stopped by a young boy.
"If you go home, I'm afraid you'll spend the rest of your life either in the Barrier Zone or in prison."
Lewen had no idea what the weird-looking kid in front of him was trying to do, he didn't listen, and then just as he got out of the subway, his wanted notice appeared on the news, including the other technicians in the company.
The crime is the crime of undermining the safety of the city, Lewen was dumbfounded, and was directly arrested by the people of the 2nd section as soon as he got off the subway, but the kid who advised him before made a move, easily knocked down everyone in the 2nd section, and escaped from the lane of transporting materials with Lewen.
"Why, we are simply ........ according to the instructions of 10 subjects"
"There is no why, it doesn't matter what the cause of the accident is, the important thing is that they got what they wanted, all your research results, including data, have been taken away by 10 subjects, even if you are the main creator and developer, but now you are no longer needed, and besides, the cause of the accident is probably not so simple to investigate."
The young man who saved Lewen is called Ran Zai, and then a series of developments are as Ran Zai said, Lewen became a wanted criminal in LV0, and the reason for the accident was that they tried to subvert the city, and the results of the investigation were also announced, with conclusive evidence.
More and more problems are exposed, and the colorful company has become an unforgivable company, and Lewen feels that everything is over for him, especially his family, and he is worried about the situation of his wife and daughter.
"Why did you save me?"
"The reason why I saved you was because of your inadvertent act of kindness, Mr. Lewen, don't you remember? You once bought food for a child who had been hungry for days, one night a few years ago. ”
Lewen doesn't remember much about this kind of thing, but he will encounter some such things from time to time, especially on the street at the bottom, you can indeed see some hungry children, he can't do anything but give them a little food.
Ran Zai didn't say anything superfluous, he took Lewen to a cemetery somewhere, and told Lewen that he could continue his research here, and he would provide everything he needed.
Later, Lewen learned that what happened to Ran Zai, after losing everything, Ran Zai had wandered on the street for a while, as if he was hiding from someone.
The past continues to come to mind, Lewen always has a glimmer of hope, for many years he can basically only watch his wife and daughter from a distance, and can do nothing, especially every time he sees his daughter crying nose, he can only watch silently, Ran Zai has warned himself, don't do this often, sure enough, one night ten years ago, that night was his daughter's graduation party, Lewen went in disguise.
As a result, Lewen was caught, and was transformed by a group of people, when he saw these people who captured him, Lewen was shocked, the biochemical transformation technology he developed back then is now so mature and stable, and they don't seem to be people who do science.
Because since Jean had been to his house, he had never harassed his wife and daughter again, and his leg was lame at that time.
After that, Lewen no longer went to see his wife and daughter every once in a while, as before, until now, after he and Jean talked that day, he was able to walk around the city as he did now, and no one would come to catch him.
Lewen has been trying to know who caused them to become criminals who intend to harm the city, and Ran Zai seems to know, but every time he asks, Ran Zai just smiles and says that the enemy is invisible.
Lewen didn't plan to ask any further, he knew that there were several forces surging in the city now, and he now had the technology in his hand that could counter those biochemical mechanical transformation people, and he wanted to use this technology to trade with Jean and get a chance to live with his wife and daughter again.
"Sir, please take off your hat and show your identification."
Le Wen hurriedly took off his hat, smiled and took out the identification certificate that Ran Zai gave himself, and after checking the people in front of him for a while, he nodded, and Le Wen continued to walk.
"Please keep order in the morning, please don't push, and shout the slogan when you welcome."
On the street, Ma Tao shouted directly with a megaphone.
"You all give Lao Tzu some spirit tomorrow, this is the day when the people who get ahead in your place officially return home to perform their work, and ah, if anyone dares to make trouble tomorrow, Lao Tzu will let him not eat and walk around."
Lewen put back his hat, pressed his nose with one hand, tears overflowed in his eyes, and with the laughter of the crowd, he also laughed heartily, shaking his head helplessly, because he never thought that his daughter, who had not been very clever since childhood, would one day get ahead, and now his daughter is already a high-ranking person with great power in the city.
