night

The lights of the city were brilliant, and the sun above them had disappeared, leaving only a black sky like a curtain.

The streets are still full of people, the upper, middle and lower three floors of the giant city, the middle and upper levels of the light is the strongest, only the light of the lower level is a little dimmed, most of the people living here are poor, a white figure shuttles through the street, from time to time around cast ill-intentioned eyes.

Jean was walking down the street with a cigarette in his mouth, and there were already a few people following him, and Jean smiled and turned into an alley.

Soon the front and back were blocked, Jean took a leisurely puff of his cigarette, and calmly looked at the people in front and back who were smiling evilly and holding weapons in their hands, they were wearing very old clothes, and they looked poor.

"Boy, it looks like you're from the middle class, cigarettes are a luxury, lend your wallet to us poor people to buy something to eat!"

Unmoved, Jean watched as several people approached him, and his eyes became cold.

"No matter what kind of era you are in, there are dregs who want to get something for nothing!"

After 1 minute, Jean picked up his coat on the ground, patted the dust and walked out of the alley, where the man who had just planned to rob him had completely fallen to the ground.

"Who the hell are you?"

A guy on the ground looked at Jean in pain, and he flicked his coat back.

"Jean of the 13th Branch."

This is the fifth time that I have been robbed in the lower block all night, and in addition to the police during the day, the order on the ground floor is very poor at night, and the Congress has not found a solution for the time being, because there are many dragons and snakes here, and it is really difficult to manage.

Tonight, Jean received a secret report that there would be a rioter attack at the entrance to the South Bridge, so he went straight down, planning to go over and deal with the problem, and the mutant who was caught today who could use fire was a member of the rioters, and the news was inferred from his mouth.

It's just that the police don't plan to deal with it, because no one wants to get close to the barrier area, and on the outskirts of the three districts of Bright City, there is also a barrier area that is in the dark all day long, which is a deserted and dilapidated neighborhood of the original humans, where many people who have been eliminated by the existing society live, and the Congress will give them some emergency food every month to maintain a minimum of life, but these foods are in the experimental stage, and the reason why they survive is to let the people in the upper, middle and lower layers live better.

In such a helpless world, there is no way to achieve so-called fairness, those who have the ability can live under the sun, and those who are not capable can only live in the dark, because human society must move forward, and cannot stand still or retreat.

After the disaster on the earth before, human beings were in a state of extreme chaos for a long time, and this is an order that has been built with great difficulty, and in Jean's concept, such an order is absolutely not allowed to be broken by anyone.

The smell of blood permeated the air, and in front of him was a small town on the edge of a huge ravine, the south guard station, with a high quadrangular wall, and the guard station was a bridge connecting the barrier area, and at this time, the black lights in the guard station were blind, and the soldiers inside should have been completely extinguished, Jean stood at the gate, looking at the gate made of special substances in front of him, which required a password to open, if it was forcibly opened, the Congress would receive an alarm in an instant, and a large number of troops would immediately fly over to suppress it.

There have been several bloody crackdowns before, but each time it has been suppressed by Congress, except for the people at the bottom, the middle and upper levels do not know, and this time the Congress does not want to make too much noise again, so Jean came alone.

In the garrison station, a large number of yellow-skinned and thin-skinned people panted and looked at the soldiers who had been tied up, and the corpses of the dead soldiers were lying on the ground in many places, and a strong man with white skin and a burly body pressed the head of an officer.

"Tell me the password, or I'll break your bones little by little."

Across the long and wide bridge of the huge ravine, the inhabitants of the ramparted area had formed a long line, and most of the pale people were crossing the bridge with hobbled steps.

The officer shook his head weakly.

"I really don't know, the password is only known to the chief of the 3rd Military Section, you let me make a call."

With a click, the commander's head was twisted off, but immediately the big man noticed a person in front of him, he looked over suspiciously, and in an instant he saw a somewhat hideous cheek and a pair of blood-red eyes.

"Where are you kid........

With a click, the big man's neck had already been twisted by Jean, and he hadn't even seen how Jean had come to his side and broken his neck, and he had already fallen to the ground and died.

Suddenly, the people with guns raised their guns and tried to attack Jean, but Jean disappeared in front of him.

Jean was already standing behind dozens of people, all of their guns halved, and one of them looked at the strange scene in front of him in horror, and the eyes of the tied soldiers widened in surprise, but they soon cheered.

"I'll give you one last chance to go back to the Barrier."

Jean said and stared at the people behind him with cold eyes, he had already investigated very clearly, the guy he just killed and the guy caught in the city today are two brothers, both of them are mutants, they planned this operation, the elder brother made a big fuss in the city and created chaos, while the younger brother cooperated with the inner response in the bottom block, and the inside and outside should first seize the guard station, let a large number of people in the barrier area enter the bottom block, and then seek other actions after recuperation.

Bursts of screams rang out, everything in front of them made everyone feel terrified, Jean was like a killing machine, shuttling through the crowd, and in just three minutes, more than thirty people had fallen in a pool of blood.

"Please, I ........"

With a click, Jean snapped the neck of the last person to break into the garrison, and he fell to the ground with wide eyes, and Jean looked at the people standing on the bridge who were retreating and running, and showed a sad expression.

"What kind of guardian of the Bright City are you, you are Jean, the legendary Jean!"

A teenager suddenly broke free of his parents and rushed over, shouting in horror as a uniform with 13 printed on it fluttered in the wind.

Everyone understands that this man is Jean of the 13th Branch, and the 13th Branch is a secret department that has been rumored to have existed for a long time, and the man who is rumored to be Jean is a weak guardian and a good person, but most of them have never seen Jean.

Jean quietly looked at the child in front of him, crossed the bridge and rushed straight towards him, waving his fist, Jean smoked silently, without saying a word.

With a thud, a thin, dirty punch slammed into Jean, who held it with one hand.

"Please, Lord Jean, he's just a kid, let him go, please."

Outside the red line of the bridge, the child's mother cried and knelt on the ground and begged.

"You're not a good person at all, you're a demon, we haven't eaten in days, and my sister is sick......."

"So what?"

Jean stared at the boy coldly, stood up and suddenly threw the boy out, and the boy fell on the bridge.

"Let me pass, let me pass."

The boy screamed and rushed again, but the moment he crossed the bridge, he hit Jean's body and fell back again, and his mother hugged the boy.

"Blindly demanding, blindly wailing, nothing can change, as long as the people living in the barrier area are still valuable, they can enter the sun, there are places every month, no matter what you can do, as long as there is still value, poverty is not your reason nor your excuse, all people living in the city have the value of their existence, and you? Is it valuable! ”

There was a burst of angry criticism, but Jean turned unfazed and walked over, crouching down to say something to a soldier whose eyes widened.

"Jean-sama, this is a violation of ........"

Jean said as he got up.

"If someone finds out, you just tell them to look for me in Section 13."

Jean said and patted the soldier on the shoulder, who glanced at the men on the bridge who were crying weakly, gritted his teeth and gave the order for them to come and take the food, water, and medicine from the garrison.

Soon many of the people on the bridge who heard this returned, and began to carry food, water, and medicine under Jean's gaze with joy, as if they had forgotten what had just happened.

"Why is this happening, Lord Jean, putting the cart before the horse!"

The soldier stood beside Jean, watching all this, he didn't understand why Jean did this, was it a whim of mercy or what, although the people who came from the bridge did not participate in the battle, but they did not deserve sympathy, because many of them were self-defeating people, and they did not have the slightest fighting spirit at all, most of them were people who often caused riots and crimes in the city, and many people only thought about getting something for nothing.

"Perhaps, but ........"

Jean glanced at the little boy who was still crying, but who had a smile on his face.

"Children are without sin."

After the men in the barrier area left, Jean got up to leave, and the soldiers just followed him.

"Lord Jean, I've seen so many riots, is there no way to fix it? As you just said, children are sinless. ”

Jean said with a smile.

"I'll try it when I go back, but I don't need to look forward to it, after all, it's not just here, it's the same from the upper floors, it stinks."

Under the soldier's astonished gaze, Jean passed through the wall as if through the mud and disappeared, and the wall returned to its original state.

"What the hell is this ........"

Before the words fell, the soldier's light and shadow mobile phone rang.

"Li Li, from today onwards you are the supreme commander of the South Garrison Station, the formal authorization order and the reinforcement of the army will pass tomorrow, as for everything you have seen tonight, please forget everything about Jean, otherwise....... You're the one who gets forgotten! ”

Li Li's heart trembled, he looked at the number without being stunned, 00003, it was the section chief of the 3rd Military Section who called.

6:30 a.m

Under the light of the annoying light and shadow alarm clock, Le Xiao opened her eyes, she used to lie in bed, but today she is extraordinarily energetic.

"There's no way back, I'm going to fire the squid next month."

Rakuxiao had already decided, she was going to find 13 subjects, from yesterday's brief relationship, she felt that Jean was very talkative, and when she came back last night, she had an idea, and planned to ask Jean to be her interview subject, so that not only would she not be fired, but she would be able to ........

As soon as he thought of this, Le Xiao blushed and laughed heartbeatly.

On a new day, Le Xiao finally felt what hope was, just like her mother told her that as long as she was bathed in the sun, good things would happen.
