194 Public Reports
◎The end is near, and I will be with you◎
People walking in the square stopped, and people on the subway looked at the secondary computer or the public screen.
"Who is this woman?" someone asked. "My secondary brain is stuck."
"What does this mean? What pollution?"
"Don't you see it says urgent?" another person yelled. "Shut up! Listen!"
Cleaning center interior.
The cleaning center employees who were still at their posts stopped and looked up at the face on the screen together.
The cleaning center received the news earlier than the outside world, and a lot of rumors were leaked in advance. Those who chose to stay now have already made up their minds.
But it was also the first time they had heard the full public report, and in fact, it was even more shocking than they had imagined.
Xuan Qing, Xie Jiazu and other senior executives stopped the meeting.
Xuan Qing: "Huo Wenxi is really not afraid of death."
Xie Jiazu: "She's probably the only one who dares to make this report."
Huo Wenxi's identity as a member of the Huo family gave her great convenience. Her surname was Huo, so she could still control resources at the most critical moment.
There was a constant stream of footsteps outside the office, and the guards were running inside the center, searching each office one by one.
This must be directed at Huo Wenxi.
Huo Wenxi made a public report from an unknown place. The first reaction of the people in the Kingdom of God was definitely to cut off the network and stop him from speaking, but they found that they could not cut off the network in a short time, so they were all looking for Huo Wenxi's exact whereabouts.
Xie Jiazu put away his cynical expression and had a guess in his heart.
Huo Wenxi's investigation report may be the same as Cheng Mofei's investigation back then.
He tightened his grip on the table, and Cheng Mofei died as a result.
On the screen, Huo Wenxi listed all his evidence and inferences in detail.
From the mechanical oceanarium to the ant school, from the ant school to the deserted village, and from the deserted village to the unnatural human incident that broke out in the cleaning center last time.
Huo Wenxi guarantees everyone's right to know.
"… Area 103 has become highly polluted, and the gap with the outside world is gradually narrowing," Huo Wenxi said. "Non-natural humans have already invaded the high walls."
"They can expand their pollution zones at any time and anywhere. They can live in a world with high pollution concentrations. In their eyes, ordinary people are inferior humans, and they are the highest level of evolution."
Huo Wenxi sat in a closed office. There was no audience in front of her, only a white wall.
The object of Huo Wenxi's report is just such a white wall.
"The federal government has never publicized pollution, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
"Today I can say very clearly," Huo Wenxi said, "Yes, they exist."
"Not only does it exist, it's right under our feet. We've been living on top of pollutants for a long time."
"You may think I'm exaggerating, or that I have no idea what's going on. But I can say from my own experience that it's definitely more terrifying than you imagine."
Huo Wenxi paused. She was in a narrow room, facing a white wall, but it felt like she was facing millions of people. "This discovery proves that the High Wall Project is useless. The Human Gene Screening Project is useless."
Huo Wenxi's tone was calm, but her words were extremely cruel. With just a few words, she negated all the efforts of mankind.
Everyone in front of the screen stopped talking, and fell into a strange silence.
Huo Wenxi didn't want to admit it, but this was reality. She continued, "First-class citizens enjoy privileges, while fifth-class citizens wait to die in the garbage dump. Resources are supplied in large quantities to the upper classes. We have always felt that this was a necessary sacrifice. We expect first-class citizens to lead us out of the Dark Ages and find a way to purify the world. Today, I can clearly inform you that the sacrifice of the other fourth-class citizens is meaningless."
"Eighty years of sacrifice, eighty years of suffering, eighty years of forbearance are meaningless," Huo Wenxi repeated.
"The First District has abandoned us. The first-class citizens have left. The port is about to close. The garrison has completely withdrawn. We are the only ones left."
"I know you want to ask, after all I've said, what advice do I have now? I'm an investigator, so theoretically I should only issue an investigative report, but today I want to say, if you have money and a pass, please leave, please leave immediately. This place is not safe."
Ordinary people are not warriors, their priority should be to protect their own lives and those of their families.
Huo Wenxi made a public report before the port was closed in order to buy them time to escape.
"If you can't leave, an emergency escape manual will be distributed to all residents of the area later. Please follow the instructions on it for emergency shelter."
Huo Wenxi stopped talking here, and she paused for a very long time.
"I think you all have clearly realized that this is not an ordinary pollution incident, this is a war."
"If Area 103 is considered an independent polluted area, we have only two options: the first is to kill the source of pollution, and the second is to violently bulldoze it."
"With the current reserves of all hot weapons at the 103rd District Clean Center, including the wall's self-defense procedures, the possibility of violent demolition is very low. The use of hot weapons is too risky and could stimulate pollutants, causing a surge in pollution concentrations and accelerating the rate of contamination."
"We have only one option left, which is to find the source of the pollution and kill it. That's all we have left."
Huo Wenxi: "Since humanity entered the new century, we have been fighting pollutants for 80 years. In this war between humans and pollutants, we have continuously lost land, compatriots, and loved ones, and we have never won."
"This time, we will take back the land from the hands of pollutants, this time, we will turn the garbage city into a clean land, and this time, we will reshape the unfair rules."
"This is a war, not a war among humans, but a war between us and pollutants. No matter who you are, first-class citizen or fifth-class citizen, natural or unnatural, as long as you want to end pollution, we are a natural united front."
"I will stay," Huo Wenxi raised his eyes with a firm look, "I don't know who else will stay, but I know I won't be the only one."
"I am Huo Wenxi. The end is near, and I will be with you all."
Snap——
Countless screens went dark, and as everyone was shocked, Huo Wenxi's face had disappeared.
The public report is over and this is the whole truth.
Immediately afterwards, everyone's secondary brain received the same message, and the public screen scrolled with the "Public Pollution Emergency Evacuation Rules."
The federal government has never publicized pollution, and residents of District 103 only vaguely sense the presence of pollutants.
Most people will never encounter it, and the small number of people who do will die.
Some urban legends circulate on the Internet, but few people have seen pollutants on a large scale.
In the past, ordinary people could still live a good life as long as they turned a deaf ear to the problem and didn't think about it.
But now, that invisible window paper has been broken and they have received the evacuation rules.
Some people opened it with trembling hands, and they had to learn to face the polluted world.
1. If you have a pass, please leave before the port closes at 6:00 p.m. today.
2. If you do not have a pass, please go to the nearest anti-pollution shelter.
3. If you are unable to leave your home, please follow the following rules:
1. Prepare supplies, protective clothing, mental healing agents, strong healing agents, clean water and nutrients.
2. Please keep the door closed and do not open it no matter who knocks.
3. If you hear a cry for help, please do not pay attention to it, do not call the relevant authorities, please ignore it.
4. Please determine the number of family members in advance. If there is one more person or one less person, please do not take any extreme actions and proceed as usual.
5. When you are home alone and hear someone talking, don't respond.
6. When you find that your body has undergone any form of abnormality, inject mental healing agents immediately if you have them. If you don’t have mental healing agents, please don’t panic. Try to keep your emotions stable and postpone contamination.
7. When you live with others and find that you or your companions are on the verge of a mental breakdown, please isolate yourself to avoid infection.
…
For a time, Area 103 fell into chaos. Most people rushed to the port. The highway was jammed and traffic was paralyzed.
All necessary supplies in the stores were sold out, and other items were sold at exorbitant prices.
Someone was frantically refreshing their secondary brain, trying to get a qualification certificate for the nearest refuge and pollution prevention center.
The network was paralyzed and many people couldn't send messages at all.
District 103 fell into unprecedented chaos and disorder. Everything Huo Wenxi had said before came true, and the real dark age was about to come.
…
Bang--!
While Hoven Creek was closed for public reporting, someone broke into the house.
"Team Leader Huo," the leading man said, "Come with us."
Huo Wenxi was exhausted after giving the public report. She felt a little weak, but she did not let herself look panicked at this time.
She gathered the hair behind her right ear and calmly stretched out her hand. A pair of shackles were fastened on her wrists.
Huo Wenxi was arrested for endangering human safety. She was on the 340th floor, very close to the top floor.
This was also the highest position she could climb to. Looking out from here, the sun was shining brightly.
Huo Wenxi was taken downstairs. Wherever she passed, people were staring at her. Everyone just looked at her, but no one spoke.
Huo Wenxi only has one eye left, but discerning other people's thoughts from their eyes has always been her forte.
Countless eyes fell on her, with complicated expressions, some sympathetic, some bewildered, some admiring, some puzzled, some surprised...
The elevator descended and she was taken to the 29th basement floor.
This is a prison for high-risk individuals. Huo Wenxi once sent several people in here personally.
The surviving investigator outside the wall is on the 30th floor underground.
Huo Wenxi was locked in a room without doors or windows. The room was only one meter long and wide, like an upright coffin, and people could not lie down in it.
If you stand for a long time, you will feel your legs go numb. The physical pain is nothing compared to the psychological depression. People who are detained for a long time will go crazy.
Huo Wenxi had her hands in shackles and her back against the wall. From the surveillance camera's perspective, one could see a woman in a water-green suit with her hair tied up behind her head, with messy strands falling down.
She wore a black eye patch over her right eye, making her look even more mysterious.
Huo Wenxi forgot how long she had been standing there. She had always been the one interrogating others, and this was her first time standing in this position, so she savored it carefully.
"Team Leader Huo." A man's voice came. Huo Wenxi couldn't see the other person's face, but judging from the voice, he felt that it sounded very familiar. It should be his surname Huo.
"You have endangered public safety."
Huo Wenxi didn't say anything. Someone who interrogated others all year round would not be scared by such a thing.
Human public safety? What an interesting charge.
"Why are you doing this?" the man said, "You need someone to help you. You can't control the Internet by yourself. Who is helping you?"
Huo Wenxi at least needs a technician, someone from the technical department is helping her.
"What are you going to do? What are your plans next?"
Huo Wenxi remained silent.
"Wenxi," the interrogator's tone slowed down noticeably, "you were once the pride of our family."
Huo Wenxi is the youngest senior executive. She represents infinite possibilities. She should spontaneously safeguard the interests of the family and also maintain the deformed order.
She is an absolute beneficiary of the existing system, so why would she do something that is disadvantageous to herself?
No matter what the interrogator asked next, Huo Wenxi did not say a word.
In the end, the other party was also helpless. Huo Wenxi was not an ordinary person. She knew all the interrogation techniques, and her special abilities were very rare. The Huo family would not execute her easily.
"Do you have anything to say to the Huo family? I can convey it for you."
Huo Wenxi blinked her drooping eyelashes. She raised her eyes, looked at the empty space before her, and said slowly, "The Cleansing Center had eight core founders, one of whom was Huo Lianyu. The Cleansing Center's founding philosophy was to eliminate all pollution and purify the world."
She did not answer the interrogator's questions, but she spoke about the philosophy of the cleaning center.
Our priority is to eliminate pollution, and our highest goal is to purify the world.
Huo Wenxi grew up with this kind of education, and she often couldn't understand why, as people grow up, there would be a moment when they suddenly "wake up" and feel that their previous beliefs were naive.
From then on, he changed his role and did things that he despised.
Huo Wenxi didn't understand, so she couldn't do it. Even if she was given countless opportunities to choose, she would still go down this path.
Call her idealistic or call her ungrateful, but she wants to give it a try.
She once promised to form an alliance with Zhu Ning and would never betray him once the alliance was formed.
Huo Wenxi looked over with one eye and gave a faint smile, "How long do you think you can hold on?"
How long can the other human survivor bases hold out? How long can the Kingdom of God hold out?
Not to mention the distant future, how long can the 103 District Clean Center maintain its current rule? How long can this cage last?
Huo Wenxi once said that it is time to turn off the lights, the dark ages are coming, and everyone is the same in the chaos.
We are all ants.
…
Noble Queen Store.
Huo Wenxi's face disappeared from the screen. Zhu Ning's first reaction was that Huo Wenxi was in danger. Her remarks were almost like poking a prick in the lungs of a first-class citizen.
Zhu Ning had thought about a lot of things, but he didn't expect Huo Wenxi to use the most ruthless trick, leaving him no way out.
From then on, she was effectively cut off from the Kingdom of God.
A car stopped in front of the Noble Queen store. When Zhuang Lin pushed open the door, the people inside immediately went into defense mode, and Shen Xingqiao raised his gun.
Zhuang Lin must have come running. He didn't even have time to explain in detail. He simply said, "Zhu Ning, take your weapon and follow me. We'll talk on the way."
Zhuang Lin's presence here means that Huo Wenxi has no one to protect him.
She might need to act separately, and this decision was made in a hurry, but the deployment was very organized, and the plan could continue even if something happened to Huo Wenxi.
Huo Wenxi wanted Zhu Ning to join the Yongsheng Pharmaceutical Foundation at this time.
Zhu Ning had no doubts and didn't even ask any questions. She was already prepared, wearing protective clothing and checking her weapons and equipment.
The situation was urgent and the farewell seemed hasty.
Zhu Ning: "I originally wanted to send you off at three in the afternoon, but now there's no chance. Get out of here, you hear me?"
Shen Xingqiao put down his gun and wanted to refute but couldn't.
Zhu Ning warned: "I will confirm where you are. Don't try to trick me."
Zhu Ning hugged each person one by one, Shen Xingqiao, Ye Fei, Lin Xiaofeng, and the last one was Song Zhizhang.
When it was Song Zhizhang's turn, Zhu Ning hesitated for a moment, probably wanting to say something.
Song Zhizhang thought Zhu Ning wouldn't hug him and would at most shake hands with him, but she hugged him without any hesitation.
The protective suit Zhu Ning was wearing had a cold metallic smell and was a bit uncomfortable.
The hug was very brief, the most intimate thing they had ever done. Zhu Ning whispered in his ear, "Take good care of Xiaofeng."
Zhu Ning left after he finished speaking, without even looking at the expressions of the people behind him, and got into Zhuang Lin's car with his equipment.
