She was in a trance, and almost couldn't stand still.

"Who?" the staff called her.

"The Tribunal..." She murmured the word again, "Is their judgment accurate?"

"It is probably accurate. The accuracy rate of each class of students in the Tribunal can be controlled at more than 10%. The average accuracy rate of students who officially joined the Tribunal this year is more than 10%... Who, do you need help? Who?"

The memory was like a blank tide, blurred. She lost her lover, and from that day on, she and Lu Xun gradually became estranged, and she almost lost him.

- In fact, she was losing her child every day.

On the day when the outer city was bombed, listening to the shock coming from afar, Lily crawled into her arms.

"Why did they blow up their own city?"

"To make humans safer."

"But the people there are also children of the Garden of Eden." Lily said, "If children are not important, why do they lock us up here?"

"They have their own reasons. For the sake of a higher goal, they have to make some choices." She hugged Lily and said softly, "The main city and the outer city are both our children. Children are sometimes willful and sometimes hurt their mothers and their cells. Only if we understand them will we not feel pain." As she said this,

the blood that seeped from the cracks in the door when she was a child, the badge of the Tribunal on Lu Xun's chest and the mushroom cloud rising in the distance overlapped in front of her eyes.

Lily also asked the same question: "Does that person understand?"

She did not answer, but rested her forehead against Lily's and closed her eyes: "I really hope you will never experience this kind of pain again."

Like a sad piece of music coming to an end, Anzhe slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself lying beside the rose bed. Looking up, the deep red and green leaves swayed, and glass fragments flickered in between. A black shadow passed in front of him, so he looked up again. The hole in the dome that originally only allowed the queen bee to enter and exit had changed. The hole occupied three-tenths of the dome. Its broken edge was shining, and a bee as long as a human arm was flying through it to the outside.

The wave had disappeared, and there was no trace of the queen bee on the dome, but the glass had been shattered. In the night sky outside, cannons exploded like fireworks - the human army had started fighting, and I wondered if they had killed the queen bee. But it was difficult to hit a bee in the vast space at night. An Zhe saw the small bee gradually flying higher and higher, and disappeared under the silver light of the moon.

Then there were several black shadows, accompanied by the buzzing sound of wings, and five, ten, countless bees swarmed from the front and back, some of which were still carrying white cloth fragments. An Zhe looked at where they came from, and the 22nd floor was empty, with no one in sight. Everyone turned into bees, and they flew out in a blanket.

Bee -

another erratic picture appeared in An Zhe's mind.

It was a bee, an ordinary bee that did not eat people, but only picked flowers.

It was a summer, the season for bees to breed. But the bee accidentally flew into a human city. The city was in chaos, and people kept their doors and windows closed. The bee just wanted to find edible pollen, but it could never do it.

Finally, it saw a bright red, blooming rose behind the glass.

A woman was taking care of the flower. She stood by the window, looking at the rose with a smile. After a long time, she looked at the sky outside in despair. She seemed to want to open the window and touch the sky outside.

So the bee waited for a long time, until the woman left and came back, until she looked outside and shed a tear.

She seemed to have finally made a decision and opened the window. The wind from outside, the free wind, rushed in. She closed her eyes, as if she could fly with the wind.

The bee had been hungry for a long time. It attached itself to the stamen of the rose, pollen covered its velvety hind legs, and it probed the center of the flower with its slender mouthparts.

But it was soon discovered.

The woman stretched out her hand towards it, her fingers trembling slightly, her eyes trembling slightly, even a little crazy, as if this was the first time she had seen such a life in her life. Her speed was very slow, and it didn't seem like she was going to push it away, but the bee's instinct determined what would happen next.

When her fingers were only a few millimeters away from touching it, the bee subconsciously touched her.

The bee died. When its body left the woman's fingers, part of its internal organs were pulled out and hung on the end of the stinger. A bee can only use its stinger once in its lifetime.

But it didn't seem to die. Its body fell into the rose bush, and its consciousness seemed to become a part of the woman's consciousness. It lay there for a long time. No one knew of its existence. Even the woman herself thought she was only stung but not infected.

——Until that part of its consciousness was gradually activated by strange fluctuations in the distance.

The memory of the bee is very simple. Apart from this experience, there is even nothing to say. When An Zhe opened his eyes again, those things gradually faded out of his mind, and the roses in front of him were still bright. Who gave the flower to Lu Xiaoren?

Only two people would give her flower seeds, her former lover or Lu Xun. The reason they gave her flowers was simply to make her bloom more.

So when the roses bloomed, the beautiful scene touched her heart, and she wanted to bathe in the sunlight and air outside, and met the bee chasing the flower.

The wind from outside blew in, and An Zhe gradually woke up. He sat up from the ground - there was nothing around. Torn clothes, communicators and people's miscellaneous items fell to the ground. He could imagine that when he was affected by the strong wave and fell into the picture in Xiao Xiaoren and the bee's memory, everyone present was also infected by the wave. Hundreds of people turned into hundreds of bees, flying through the hole in the dome into the sky.

He was an exception, still maintaining his human body, just like the time when he was bitten by an insect, he did not change.

At this moment, a dangerous intuition rose from Anzhe's heart. He looked up at the top of the dome, where three small military helicopters were suspended. They were where the people who had just fired at the swarm of bees were. Anzhe squinted and looked over there, but found that at this moment, a black muzzle of a gun was sticking out of the window of the helicopter, facing him.

At the same time, there were hurried footsteps coming from the door, alarms rang out, emergency lights and red alarm lights flickered wildly, the floor was shaking, and fully armed emergency response soldiers rushed in, and An Zhe was surrounded by them—each of them was holding a heavy weapon, and each gun was pointed at him.
