Great time travel

Chapter 48. Professor Guo who stumbled

Under the strong request of these two rookies, in order to explain the urban management dog tooth international column, a supernatural force organization in China, why there is a unit with a seven-dollar sign and accepting the leadership of the seventh level, but it only provides temporary workers for most members. Professor Guo had to first briefly explain the basic situation of this department, as well as the historical origin of the supernatural power organization in New China.

According to Professor Guo's introduction, regardless of the period of the Republic of China before the founding of the People's Republic of China, from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to the reform and opening up, there were no supernatural organs inside the new Chinese government-because it was not necessary at all!All political commissars with firm beliefs will be able to crush all monsters and gods directly!

——In the past history of human beings, whether the so-called supernatural powers, magic, gods, or devils all originated from the fantasy in human thinking.Therefore, it is not God who created man, but man who created God.

For mortals, gods and ghosts, such fantasy products, exist if they believe in them, and they don’t exist if they don’t believe in them.

If you don't believe in God, then God doesn't exist for you at all.If you don't believe in ghosts, then all ghosts can't do anything to you.

Since humans can create ghosts and gods, then nature can also destroy them.And the scientific communist atheism belief is the special medicine to eliminate all imaginary races—if the gods and demons are bacteria, then communism is antibiotics; if the gods and demons are computer viruses, then communism is formatting software!No matter what kind of gods and devils they are, no matter they bear the name of Jehovah, Allah, Buddha, Hades, or Lucifer, they cannot appear in front of real communists.

Therefore, in those passionate years, all unscientific fantasy products could not gain a foothold in mainland China where the red flag was flying.And all kinds of ghosts and monsters that the old society once had have been swept away in previous ideological movements.

But the problem is that with the arrival of the spring breeze of reform and opening up, the long-closed door of the country has been opened, not only all kinds of new ideas and technologies have come in, but also some flies and mosquitoes have come in.All of a sudden, various legal religions and illegal cults blossomed all over the country, and all kinds of supernatural events also began to revive in the land of China.The sudden appearance of traversers and wormholes, as well as the strong support of traditional anti-China and anti-communist forces outside the country, have enabled some ambitious religious leaders to possess real supernatural power, and began to make waves increasingly rampantly.

In the face of true communist beliefs, these supernatural powers certainly have no room to display.But the problem is that the firm and pure red belief that can withstand thousands of tempers has gradually disappeared in this era.

However, all kinds of evil existences have begun to move around again, threatening this increasingly collapsing world at any time.

Thus, from the end of the 80s, the public security, the General Staff, and the National Security Bureau went into battle together. ... Wait for a lot of supernatural organs.In the end, the organization became bloated and there were too many redundant staff. Not only did the functions of each other conflict with each other, but it was also somewhat unaffordable financially.

Therefore, after entering the 90s, faced with the confusion of beliefs, the increasingly severe new situation, and the crises created by various anti-China and anti-communist forces and border separatist rebel groups, the country had to carry out a large-scale investigation of the supernatural institutions. The simplification of the range, in order to reduce staff and increase efficiency.

However, there is a very serious problem that the civil servant industry has always been an iron rice bowl, smashing any post will cause an uproar, and civil servants engaged in secret work are even more difficult to arrange.The most terrible thing is that the leading cadre actually responsible for the downsizing has no courage and lacks practical work experience, so he finally came up with an unusual downsizing plan-all the soldiers were abolished, and all the officials were kept.

"...That is to say, all those supernatural beings who have no foundation and connections have been abolished, while the officials who eat finances have all stayed."

Professor Guo explained this calmly, and Wang Qiu and Ma Tong wanted to pour a cup of Sanlu to the party after hearing this!
——The supernatural department without supernatural beings...is this messing around? ! !
This is as absurd as a hospital without doctors and nurses, and a bus station without drivers!

Well, even if the country holds the ultimate strategic power that can obliterate all abilities, there is no need to come up with such a money-wasting trick, right?
Although Wang Qiu seemed to have [-] alpacas running majesticly by in his mind, Professor Guo continued to narrate calmly.

No matter how trivial, how absurd, or how unimaginable this streamlining plan is, in short, after this substantial streamlining, the financial expenditure of the ability department has finally come down, and there will be no conflict between each other because of power. Divided and clashed again.

The only trouble is that, after such a streamlining, all the supernatural issues are left alone.

——Professionals who can work have all been fired, and the rest are a bunch of pampered laymen and redundant staff...

Obviously, the result of such suicidal nonsense can only be the complete paralysis of all relevant departments and the anger of the central leaders.

Therefore, in order to solve this problem, led by the Supernatural Phenomenon Processing Office, other major supernatural departments followed up, learned from the advanced experience of local departments, and started the business of authorizing agency subcontracting work.

Since then, China's supernatural front has become the stage where the new arm of "urban management" dominates.

"...In short, after deducting those redundant staff who will only eat empty pay, our country's supernatural front is actually relying on various temporary workers and labor dispatch workers to play the leading role. Most of them, They were all included in the urban management system.

Originally, in addition to our "Canine Tooth" unit, there were a series of other units code-named "Huya", "Dragon Tooth", etc., but after long-term competition and elimination, it is our "Canine Tooth" that currently dominates—because we Under the banner of the international column, it is easier to cooperate with overseas organizations, and it is more convenient to carry out overseas tasks, unlike other units that can only circle around an acre of land in China.

In addition, there is also a supernatural reconnaissance team that has been operating around the world for a long time under the banner of a science and education TV program crew as a cover, providing us with intelligence and clues.Our insiders nicknamed this film crew 'The Burial Agency'..."

Holding the teacup in his hand, Professor Guo introduced Wang Qiu and Ma Tong in this way, "...Oh, by the way, you should have seen the series of science and education programs they filmed, which is the "Into Science" "..."

— On top of Marx!There are too many complaints to count!
Wang Qiu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, feeling that he wanted to make a cup of Sanlu for the party more.

But what I have to admit is that this cheating practice of authorized agency still has some legal basis.

As we all know, China's "urban management and law enforcement" can almost take over all public powers, so how was this powerful institution born?
So far, urban management in various places has generally been authorized by the local government to act as an agent of part of the rights (mainly punishment) of the departments of industry and commerce, public security, and health, but there is no urban management headquarters in the central government.In essence, the emergence of urban management is nothing more than subcontracting the power of administrative punishment previously exercised by various local departments to a violent organization.

In other words, this is the result of various departments transferring the power of administrative punishment to urban management because they find it troublesome.

——But the problem is that it is very easy to hand over something like power, but it is very difficult to get it back.

That being the case, the major supernatural departments can naturally follow suit and subcontract their various violent operations to the corresponding urban management agencies through the method of authorized agency-because it is a job on the secret front, even the external Publicity can be waived.

It really is the pinnacle of bureaucracy developed to the extreme!

——"Ci Hai" explains "bureaucracy" in this way: "National functionaries are divorced from reality and the masses, and only know how to issue orders. It is manifested in ignorance of the actual situation, indifference to the sufferings of the masses, arbitrariness, and suppression of democracy. So much so that it is domineering, domineering, domineering, etc.; it also includes many departments, overstaffed organizations, many levels, arguing with each other, overstaffed people, too many vacancies, and low work efficiency."

Just as the bureaucratic Japanese imperial ministers were seized by samurai, and the bureaucratic Soviet Union was brought down by the "new thinking" of the map boss, the bureaucratic dragon group has also been defeated by the hard workers. The hard-working urban management team members were evacuated.

Hmm, sure enough, our city management has the power!
However, Wang Qiu was still puzzled by one of the questions:
"...Even if we want to engage in authorized subcontracting, why do we use the most deceitful labor dispatch contract for the hired supernatural beings? Those formal urban management are also organized by public institutions? Could it be that the government is so stingy, even so Are you reluctant to give out any salary and benefits?"

oh!I see!The bureaucracy in our country has always been like this - let the temporary workers do things if they have something to do, and if there is a problem, the temporary workers will be responsible. The leading cadres only need to conduct a deep self-criticism, and then expel the temporary workers in a righteous way. You can explain both above and below.Afterwards, you can quietly recruit the original team back again, which means nothing happened... Could it be the same on your side? "

"... Cough, Comrade Xiao Wang, don't imagine the country and the government too darkly! You should look at the bright side more and feel the positive energy of society. Do you understand? The reason why the organization has created so many In fact, there are many temporary workers who have to deal with it.”

Professor Guo reprimanded him with a stern face, but then he sighed again, "...hey...how should I put it? At the beginning, the treatment of members of the organization was not so miserable. But as time goes by , There are more and more supernatural beings and time-travelers popping up all over the country, but the funds allocated by the state finances have not increased, and the unit establishment has not expanded much, so the level of treatment has naturally gradually dropped..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Subcontracting almost the entire frontline of supernatural forces to the city management is only temporarily solving an organizational problem that they created themselves.But with the passage of time, especially after entering the 21st century, China's supernatural department began to encounter new challenges.

——After entering the 21st century, the rapid popularization of computer networks has not only brought an unprecedented information explosion to mankind, but also brought the global supernatural world into a new era of "fantasy explosion"!

As I said before, whether the so-called supernatural powers, magic, gods, or devils all originate from the fantasy of human thinking.If human thinking is lifeless, like a machine, then all these unscientific things will naturally have no room for germination.And if the human imagination is richer, then all kinds of strange powers and gods will emerge more and more.

However, with the rapid popularization of computer networks and the explosion of online literature in a short period of time, people's spiritual life and imagination have been greatly enriched, leading to the emergence of various fantasy, fantasy, and science fiction types of whimsical ideas in society. Overwhelming, although the piety is seriously insufficient, the activity and imagination far exceed those feudal superstitions of the past... As a result, all kinds of supernatural events are further flooding, and different types of supernatural beings frequently appear , so that the relevant functional departments were overwhelmed and exhausted for a while.And the rapid expansion of the team of traversers also prevented the state agencies from having enough funds and staff to accommodate them, so they could only barely control them in the form of temporary workers.

On the other hand, it may be because modern people are active in thinking and lack the pious religious beliefs of the ancients, so the supernatural powers of this year always appear and disappear from time to time.Among these modern supernatural beings, no one knows when their supernatural power will awaken, how long it will last, when it will disappear, and when it will reappear.

In the past, the relevant departments of the country used to spend countless money and time on the most rigorous all-round training for carefully selected supernatural beings. Not only did the trainees shed blood and sweat, but the training party also cost a lot of money.However, when the trainee finally completed all the trainings and was able to formally carry out the exploration mission, at this juncture, his abilities suddenly disappeared!As a result, all the country's previous investments were in vain... After such a heavy lesson, in addition to the cultivation of political commissars who can "break all laws", the relevant departments on the front of the supernatural force simply gave up the training profession The plan of the supernatural beings is changed to mandatory employment of supernatural beings as temporary workers. Only a very small number of outstanding people will be formally staffed, so as to ensure the mobility of personnel and prevent unnecessary waste of funds—anyway, supernatural powers There will always be those at any time, and they will never be opponents of the political commissars, as long as they are incorporated or controlled when the time comes.

In addition, there is a new problem that is even more unexpected by the relevant departments, which is the large-scale emergence of so-called "travelers".

——As I said before, in this material world, gods and ghosts, the products of fantasy, exist for mortals if they believe in them, and if they don’t, they don’t exist.In the same way, for mortals, things like "traveling" are also possible if you believe it, and if you don't believe it, you don't have it.If there are many people who believe in the existence of such a thing as "time travel", then such a thing as "time travel" will really happen!
However, since entering the 21st century, time-travel novels have become popular among the general public, and almost all nerds and nerds who are used to searching for spiritual food on the Internet know about this kind of stuff.In the north and south of the river, inside and outside the Great Wall, I don’t know how many people who are not satisfied in real life are daydreaming about time travel all day long, imagining that one day they will be able to travel through endless time and space, looking for a land that is more suitable for them to display their talents. Xintiandi, break out a brilliant life of your own!

So, after years of accumulation of such a huge fantasy power of hundreds of millions of people, people really began to travel through it!

Well, well, if it’s just that some people have embarked on the road of no return through another world, then it’s not a big problem to the real world. Anyway, China is so big, and there are inevitably 10,000+ or ​​even hundreds of thousands of missing people every year.If it's the soul traveling after death, then it doesn't matter - you are not a living Buddha who needs the approval of the government above the city level to be reincarnated!Who cares whether you were reincarnated on the earth after death or in another world?

But the problem is that a considerable number of traversers just wandered around in another world, and then came back inexplicably.Some of them became magicians, some became vampires, some became murderers, some became gladiators... These are obviously unstable factors that endanger social order.

Fortunately, when the vast majority of traversers ended their adventures in different worlds due to various reasons and returned to the modern earth, all their special abilities and bloodlines disappeared automatically, and they regained the street-fighting qualities of ordinary people. , basically only the memories in their minds are preserved... This prevents the earth from becoming an unscientific fantasy world where demons dance wildly and gods and ghosts run rampant.

"... Comrade Xiao Wang, Comrade Xiao Ma, although what happened to you is very strange, don't take yourself too special."

In the gradually dimming twilight, Professor Guo said with a flat face, "...there are no fewer than twenty transmigrators I have seen in the past few years, and some of them have become magical girls, and some have become Those who were werewolves, and those who became kings in the ancient world... Although like you, um, I should also add myself, in short, they came out of the infinite flow space. It’s worth the fuss. Alright, did you bring the pocket that connects to the Doraemon world from Wang Qiu’s house? I’m just about to see Doraemon again!”

"...I brought it, I brought it!" Ma Tong said quickly, and at the same time took out a seemingly ordinary pocket from the handbag, and after pulling it hard, it turned into a bag with a diameter of about [-] centimeters. The round space door is still shining with colorful halos.

"...As long as you get in here, can the other side come out of Doraemon's pocket? This is very interesting!"

Professor Guo rubbed his chin and thought about this space door, while muttering in a low voice, he picked up the dorayaki as a gift, stepped in... the next moment, his body disappeared at an abnormal speed. into the bag, accompanied by a piercing scream!

Well?What exactly happened here?
Wang Qiu and Ma Tong exchanged glances in confusion, and finally Wang Qiu took a step forward and poked his head in to see what was going on... Then Doraemon over there stretched out his hand and grabbed his hair. It was pulled out of the four-dimensional pocket, hanging in mid-air and dangling.

——At this time, Doraemon-dono is in the sky above downtown Tokyo, using [Bamboo Dragonfly] to fly back to Nobi’s house as usual...

"...Wang Qiujun, what happened just now? Why did someone fall out of my pocket all of a sudden?" Doraemon held Wang Qiu in one hand, and pointed to a human-shaped pit on the roof somewhere below, depressed. He asked eagerly, "...Look, the roof of Grandpa Matsui's house was smashed!"
