【Summer Five】Iron City Wall

It was the end of the year, and the unified examination for the whole district started again.Regardless of origin or value, anyone with a student status can participate.If you can enter the school in the three districts, you can be promoted together with your family.

After the half-month exam, a candidate leaped to the third level with a full score in all subjects and was admitted to the state university in the second district.When the news was announced, the entire Fifth District was boiling, but anyone who had a little knowledge of high school knew who this "genius" was.Immediately, she was secretly angry with jealousy, congratulated with admiration, and almost stepped over the threshold in a hurry to curry favor, Minako had to pack her luggage in advance and leave the fifth district one day earlier.

Thanks to the contacts accumulated from receiving commissions, Xia You quickly found a house in the third district.And because he has a lot of savings, it is not difficult to buy a high-end apartment in Bailaiping in a good location; Minako and Hiroki are both "high-level talents" who are guaranteed, and they quickly found a suitable apartment and lived a stable and fulfilling life. Life.

Parents no longer have to look at other people's faces, don't have to swallow their anger in front of vulgar and superficial leaders, and don't have to waste their talents in vain and waste their visible lives on trivial matters in life.There are many old friends in the third district, many of whom are warm-hearted and generous like Professor Manderson. When they heard that Xia You's family was able to return, they immediately contacted them and sincerely expressed their willingness to help.

The life in Dongcheng District is comfortable and leisurely, neither remote nor uninhabited, nor too noisy like the downtown, which just suits Mei Nanako and Hong Shu's wishes.Xia You himself is also busy with school in the second district, and he can only go home by boat every other month. He only stays for a while, and then leaves in a hurry.

Life seems to be back to childhood, everything is harmonious and beautiful, and the fragrance of firewood, rice, oil, salt and tea and flowers fills the heart, which is exactly the "happiness" that people can imagine.

Xia You thought so too.The academic level of the state university is extremely high, and the Drive Armor Comprehensive Research Institute he attended has many knowledgeable people. Even if he usually attends classes on time and submits thesis reports, it will be beneficial to increase his knowledge.As for the "gap" mentioned by his father - as long as he doesn't listen, read, or think, nothing will happen.

Every midnight dream, when he was hit by a huge emptiness and pain and woke up calling a certain name, he would always use this sentence to prevaricate himself.

Regardless of whether the fat aunt in the canteen is often abused by the supervisor; the cleaners are beaten and cast aside just because they are below a certain number; let alone think about the lava that fills every inch of soil in the second district: that is a cold and sharp number, with flesh and blood Divide the sky from the tears, even if you try to reach out, you can only cut the palm of your hand dripping with blood.

And summer oil has had enough of this taste.

When he just returned home from the third district, he stared at the information belonging to another person in the ring all day and all night, stood in a daze in the weak light source of the virtual screen, and heard the sound of flesh and blood being separated from his chest clearly.The heavy dull pain ruthlessly crushed the ribs and heart, mixed with blood-sucked iron filings, and twisted it into something more terrifying than phantoms.The thing was throbbing in his palm, making him want to scream, cry, and vomit his aching guts.

Over time, the body's protection mechanism begins to take effect.Xia You gradually stopped thinking about him, and only said to his parents that he was "taken away by his family", and everything was back on track.He is still the calm and intelligent Xia Youjie, friendly and unflappable, no matter who he faces, he can calmly talk for a long time.

Even at night, Xia You can fall asleep.He would only wake up on certain nights like drawing an easter egg, and find himself stretching out his hand to the void, with his fingers curled up like a humble retainer.

Then, just sit with eyes open until dawn.Even though the eyelids are complaining about releasing tiredness, the brain is extremely awake, and each frame is filled with some vivid and distinct memories.Summer Oil puts it down to discomfort.It is only because I am too used to the presence of another person around me that I have a stress behavior similar to a withdrawal reaction.Given time... time will take everything away.

On this day, he shuttled between the teaching buildings as always, with a shoulder bag cross-body, and his leather shoes echoed crisply on the floor tiles.

"Hey, that pair of sisters—the cleaner's daughter, the one who accidentally fell to her death last week—here again, Brado and the others are looking for a place to block them, hurry up!"

After a pause, he turned slowly and followed behind the malicious student.They looked to be in their early twenties, with uneven builds, but they all wore the same disgusting smile.

Several students walked to the gap between the gymnasium and the storage room, and greeted the people inside. "Come on, these two guys usually run fast enough that they can't be caught. This time they finally got caught, so we can't just let them go."

——The value of the iron city wall is not one hundred, because no matter from the perspective of reality or morphology, there is no perfect human being who "does no harm to society".On this premise, the number second only to [-]% has an overwhelming position. It represents a rare opportunity in hundreds of years, and it is the kindling and fuse of civilization's take-off.

Domination, dignity, indifference and reason, everyone bows to him, and everyone is convinced.

The leader started to untie his belt, and the "83" on his Adam's apple was eye-catching.

"I've been wanting to play with you to death for a long time, just stay here and don't make a sound!" The student was gearing up, salivating, and the shadow shrouded the petite figure at the end of the gap.They were bruised and bruised, their young hands and feet trembled, tears flowed all over their faces, and their sobs were as soft as mosquitoes.

The sisters hugged each other tightly, their eyes of fear and despair fell on the "high mountains" that pressed their sight, and the cry for help was choked in their throats, gradually fading away by sobs.

——The law is naturally just, because its objective nature is the cornerstone of maintaining social stability.And the effect of the law is naturally unfair, because human beings distinguish each other by value, the higher price is beneficial to society, and the lower price is insignificant and dispensable.

Victims inflict harm on the innocent, and those in power impose penalties before any hidden dangers of legal sanctions.Silent, neat and efficient, government machinery has always been like this, only acting for one-way interests, waiting for people to justify its name: "Society is stable above everything else."

The fire is extinguished when it is born, the moonlight illuminates the people in the heavenly palace, and there are no more fireflies in the darkness.

Three students guarded the entrance, the young man wrapped the belt around his hands a few times, and grabbed the black-haired girl.He was very strong, the girl punched and kicked, and even the toothbrush was used, but she couldn't shake it a bit.

"A mere mopping the floor, with such a strong temper?" The student got excited and shook the girl in the air, "It just so happens that the dead old woman assigned a social practice paper, so it's not just for you to 'practice'!"

The heavy fist was about to fall, another girl who was limp on the ground suddenly rushed forward, grabbed his hand tightly, and screamed: "Don't touch Mimiko!"

But it only takes a light kick to shake off that feathery resistance.As the black-haired girl yelled, her petite body was kicked a few meters away and hit the wall, and the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground and bones breaking could be heard muffled.

——Even this life was given to you by others.

If he hadn't revealed his identity, you should have been tortured in that cold and damp prison, and died miserably in the end.Talking about dreams, if there is no sympathy from this noble lord, ordinary people should have disappeared without a sound, worse than Xuehua, without leaving a trace.

In the final analysis, I am not a lucky person who is favored by God after all.Since there is no way to go, they use their own feet to make a way; for thousands of years, predecessors have done this, and today, these traditions are still unshakable.

In the dark teasing and beating, Mimiko kept watching the twins curled up in the corner, and her tears gradually dried up.She didn't close her eyes, even though her dress was torn vigorously and her neck was touched by rough and slippery hands, she kept her eyes wide open, clearly seeing how she was engulfed by the viscous and malicious darkness.

Before her despair subsided, she heard a different voice.

"call out."

Very light, shallow and fast, like silver needles across brocade.

The person on her body paused, and suddenly collapsed on her back without warning, crushing Mimiko to the ground.She pushed the body away with difficulty, moved out of the restraints with trembling legs and feet, and ran to the wall to lift the twins up.Nanako weakly opened her eyes, called out "Mimiko", her pupils suddenly shook.

The girl raised her hand and saw herself covered in blood reflected in her sister's eyes.

The student fell face-on, and a four-finger-wide hole was opened from his back to his chest. Blood sprayed out one after another, and a deep red lake formed on the ground.Outside, the Wangfeng trio lay on the ground in a mess, their faces were black and pale, and although there was no wound, they were obviously dead.

The girls raised their heads tremblingly, looking up at the boy standing in the pool of blood and corpses.

He was wearing a shirt and trousers, with a handsome face and a relaxed posture, not at all like the desperado who killed four people in a row half a minute ago.Wiping away the blood splattered on his forehead casually, the boy frowned and smiled wildly and fragilely.

Xia You stretched out her hand to the girls, her slender fingers slowly overlapping with the last rays of light before sunset.

He asked, "Want to come with me?"

After disposing of the corpses, Xia You took the two girls to the hospital, bandaged and prescribed medicine, and then brought them back to the modest apartment in the second district.Mimiko and Nanako rested in the master bedroom, and when he returned to the living room, he heard the sound of his brain running fast.

He has never been so calm.What should be done next, how not to arouse suspicion, what actions should be taken in the future; these things are clearly listed in the mind, as if they have been rehearsed countless times.

Hell has always been opened only for the foolish and fearless, and he is determined to step into it, even if the answer at the end of the quagmire is already doomed.

"Hello." A number was dialed, and a low and hoarse voice came from the receiver, as if he hadn't drank water for a few days.

Xia You waited for two seconds before saying, "Andre, do you still keep the information network of the remnants of the Revolutionary Army?"

Straight to the point, the person on the other side obviously didn't expect this kind of questioning, and said anxiously: "Why are you asking this suddenly? The Revolutionary Army has long since..."

"I just need answers. Yes, or no."

It was rare for him to be so cold and hard. Andre was silent for a moment, his voice becoming more tired: "Yes. I was planning to go back to the first district and destroy it directly. I just received your call, let's talk."

Xia You: "I heard that Uglevedon's family are all businessmen, why don't you make a deal with me?"

"Give me everything you have about the rebel army; in contrast, I can completely eliminate the identity of Andre Nzolas. You must also know that this name has participated in too many uprisings, Even if you are not discovered by the police for the time being, the risk of settling accounts after the autumn is still very high. As long as you hand over everything about the Revolutionary Army to me, I can help you once and for all, and you will never have to worry about false identities again in this life, how about it?"

Andre suppressed and roared: "What are you going to do?"

"I said before that the policy of the rebel army is too child's play, no matter how much help there is, there will be no future." Xia You said coldly, "But I am smarter than you, and I am smarter than most people."

During Andre's stunned pause, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and the ink in his lacquered eyes gradually condensed, like a cold glow.Heaven is far away from him, and hell opens its arms; the black flames hunt and dance, and the world is overthrown and burned.

In the collapsing and crumbling world, a flash of bright silver as vast as the sky flashed across the eye sockets.That person once looked up at him by the campfire, talking about some taboo and bold words in his mouth, with a frank smile, which ignited him like a sudden fire.

After 251 full days of parting, the fire really kindled, destroying barriers, defying redemption, and consuming everything about him.

"Master Andersia, let me go down the road you can't walk."
