The World's First Contract [Rebirth]

Chapter 2 Numerical Society

Watching the spliced ​​remains of his parents being sent into the cremation furnace, Xi Yang slowly pursed his lips, his already thin lips almost forming a straight line, adding a bit of coldness to the soft facial features .

The boy's hand holding the railing was tightly clenched, and his slender fingers turned white under the force.He stared closely at the closed door of the cremation furnace, his pupils were extremely dark green, and the fundus of his eyes was dark, looking like an ancient well with no waves.

He has seen his parents' remains.

Although Fan Rong called it "the body that has been spliced ​​together", in Xi Yang's view, it was not a complete body at all.The big explosion in the laboratory shattered all the surrounding walls, and it was impossible for the researchers in the laboratory to keep the whole body.

The so-called parts that have been spliced ​​are just relying on genetic identification to distinguish each individual, and try to identify the muscle texture, identify the specific parts, and barely arrange the meat pieces according to each part.

…Four years ago, he naively believed the results of the investigation report, thinking that it was just an accident, but the truth was not as simple as he thought.

The big explosion in the laboratory was man-made!Someone deliberately blew up everything in the lab!

His parents were killed!

Xi Yang is no longer the naive boy he was back then. The four years he experienced in his last life, each year seemed as long as a lifetime.

Thinking of everything he had experienced, he felt more and more how stupid he was back then, and even a bit of sarcasm appeared on his face, which merged with the lines drawn from the corners of his mouth earlier, making his expression like a blade Generally cold.

After talking with the staff in charge of cremation, Fan Rong turned around and saw Xi Yang's expression that did not match his age, and he was taken aback for a moment.

He was hired as a private lawyer by Xiyue and Xia Ziying 18 years ago. He can be said to have grown up with the child Xiyang, and he is quite familiar with the child's character, not to mention: Xi Yang has been a little cold since he was a child, and he treats people with a slight sense of alienation, which is completely opposite to Xi Yue and Xia Ziying's husband and wife who have always treated others with enthusiasm.

However, although Xi Yang's character is opposite to that of his parents, his heart is as kind as those two couples, and this is the first time he has seen Fanrong's expression now.

This stern expression almost overlapped with the face of the person in his memory, causing Fanrong's breathing to freeze for a moment—just a 16-year-old child, it gave him an uncontrollable sense of surrender... In the final analysis, should blood be the cause?

Seemingly noticing his gaze, the young man turned his head, and after meeting his eyes, he showed a slightly confused expression: "Uncle Fan...?"

That expression immediately destroyed the previous sternness on the young man's face, as if breaking some kind of indescribable spell, Fan Rong immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

He took two steps forward and stood beside Xi Yang, and followed his previous line of sight to look at the door of the cremation furnace: "After the cremation is over, I will accompany you to the sea of ​​tombs." Seeing Xi Yang nodded in agreement, Fanrong finally After reporting the itinerary: "The compensation has been approved, and the list of your parents' inheritance has also been sorted out. After going to the tomb sea, you can decide where to go for the formalities based on your physical condition."

The implication is that if Xi Yang feels uncomfortable, he will bring all the documents to Xi Yang's house for him to sign.

Xi Yang shook his head: "Arrange to the office directly, and finish the things that need to be dealt with at once."

Fanrong seemed to disapprove, but he still nodded: "I will make arrangements, don't worry."

Xi Yang glanced at Fanrong.

After fifteen days of recuperation, he has completely recovered.

Xi Yang's heart is like a mirror, he has resurrected his life, after being tortured to death, he has returned to the day that changed the trajectory of his life.

No matter what kind of opportunity he got to give him the chance to live again, but everything he suffered before his death... everything he suffered in the four years after he got everything, he will return it to the giver in double.

And is the private lawyer hired by his parents related to everything he encountered in his last life?Not long after he inherited everything left to him by his parents in the last life, he listened to Qiao Xiu's slander and did not continue to hire Fan Rong. Now it seems that Fan Rong must have something wrong - otherwise he would be as stingy as Qiao Xiu. People who spend extra energy on other goals will not "focus on taking care of" Fan Rong.

So, did the man do something after he was out of his sight?If the answer is yes, what role does he play?

He will find out all these slowly.

It doesn't matter, he has plenty of time this time.

The deep orange light in the cremation furnace dimmed, and the cremation process was over. According to Xi Yang's request, the ashes of Xiyue and Xia Ziying were placed in the same urn—if his parents who had been loving for many years Knowing that we can be with each other in this way after death, I must be happy.

Xi Yang took the urn, and looked up at Fan Rong lightly: "Let's go."

The two walked out of the body disposal facility, and Fan Rong called out the translucent crystal screen on his wrist, and within half a minute after a few light touches, his personal flying machine drove over and hovered in front of the two of them.Xi Yang followed Fanrong into the aircraft, and after Fanrong set the destination, he switched off the autopilot mode, called up the crystal screen again and began to arrange the next itinerary.

Xi Yang held the urn and looked out the window.

The skyscrapers are almost invisible, and the speed of the aircraft speeding on the various traffic arteries is extremely fast.With the development of science and technology to the extreme, the human country has experienced several times of separation and reunification. In the end, the national border collapsed, the countries merged into one, and the world was divided into regions... What finally appeared in front of human beings was a social system supported by numerical values. .

Since birth, human beings will be implanted with chips equal to life in their wrists, and at the same time endowed with a constant social value. The social value is consumed as both currency and lifespan. The social value is completely controlled by the individual. In theory, no matter what Whether the increase or decrease is the result of autonomous actions, and because of this, once the social value is zero, no matter what the reason is, it will be judged useless by the society. At the same time, the chip implanted in the human body will release Concentrated neurotoxins kill people instantly.

The society provides minors with minimum basic necessities of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and opens up access to basic facilities such as schools and hospitals, so that people's education and health are protected accordingly during their growth without consuming any social value.But after adulthood, all needs will be deducted from the corresponding social values.

There are only two ways to obtain social values, one is to pay the corresponding labor for social work, and the other is to act as a gift authorized by others.

Some people spend their whole lives working for the society and spend their lives in peace; The corpses were cleaned up and transported away in batches.

In other words, in this society supported by numerical values, the life and death of human beings are in their own hands, and no matter what actions they take, they need to bear the risks and subsequent costs for them.

This is the original intention of the establishment of the numerical society. When this social system was first established, everything was indeed developing towards an ideal country as the planners expected. But I don’t know when this ideal state began. Essentially misrepresented.

Xi Yang's thoughts sank to the scene he saw in the dark alley in his last life...

"...Xiao Yang?" A deep male voice came from outside the aircraft. Accompanied by that voice, the side door of the aircraft opened with a "chuck", and Fanrong's face appeared behind the opened side door: "We are here. .”

Xi Yang, whose meditation was interrupted, only nodded slightly, and bowed down from the aircraft holding the urn.

The tomb sea is a place to store the ashes of the dead. Although it is called a "sea", it actually exists in the shape of a honeycomb.Within the huge protective crystal wall, densely packed tombs are closely packed together, just like every tall building seen on the way here, the top of the sea of ​​tombs is also invisible.The maximum space inside each tomb is large enough to hold the ashes of dozens of generations.

No matter how developed, humans are a species that cannot share the soil of death with outsiders. Therefore, whether it rises or falls, a grave is a family.

Xi Yang's parents were both orphans, so what Fan Rong applied for as an agent was a brand new tomb.

After Xi Yang landed at the entrance of the tomb sea and verified his identity, he waited for a few minutes before seeing a hexahedral tomb slide down from a high place along the protective crystal wall, and finally stopped firmly in front of him.

The young man took a look at the tomb: the tomb number marked with seven digits was the same as the one his parents placed in the last life.

Xi Yang stepped in, chose the best place in the entire tomb, squatted down and pressed the place he liked, and saw a circle of fine silver light glowing at the place he touched, Xi Yang stood up and took a step back, Watching a hexagonal prism of the same color as the tomb rise "soaring" from that place.

Xi Yang put the box containing the ashes of his parents on it, stared deeply at it, then turned and walked out without hesitation.

As soon as he came out, he saw Fan Rong leaning against the entrance of the tomb sea. The latter was slightly taken aback when he saw him coming out—Fan Rong thought that Xi Yang would stay in the tomb for a while, saying goodbye to his parents Whether it's good or sorting out emotions, it takes time, but I didn't expect Xi Yang to come out so soon.

Obviously, Xi Yang just walked in, placed the urn and came out.

If it was not very clear that Xi Yang was very close to Xi Yue and Xia Ziying, Fan Rong would have thought that the relationship between Xi Yang and his parents was not good... Thinking of the cold look that Xi Yang saw in front of the cremation furnace, Fan Rong Can't help but start to guess how likely it is that the painful blow of the death of his parents will have a related impact on Xi Yang.

... No, if there is any change in Xi Yang's mental state, his attending doctor Du Li will not agree to discharge him from the hospital.

Because Xi Yang's state seemed abnormal, Fan Rong was about to suggest that he go to the office another day, but he didn't expect that he met Xi Yang's eyes in the next second.

Those dark green pupils could hardly be seen under the sunlight, and the dark color was like a bottomless abyss.Being watched by such a pair of eyes, Fanrong couldn't say what he wanted to say anyway, only heard the young man Qingyue's voice conveyed with indifference:

"Let's go to the office."

The author has something to say: Note: The relevant settings of social values ​​are actually based on the "time" setting of "Time Planning Bureau". Readers who are interested can check it out. It's a science fiction film, quite a while ago You see, when I made up the social setting, I remembered such a setting with reference value, so I thought about it and finally decided on such a social system, don’t you think it’s very interesting! =w=

PS: Xiao Shou is so cute that I don’t want it
