Neighborhood committee clerk is the lowest-level public position, but it is still an enviable job. Not only does it allocate an apartment, but it also takes care of lunch.
In the Fifth Street Neighborhood Committee office, Li Liang distributed today's lunch to House, Cain, Mizuno and Li Ru.
The lunch standard is not high. Although it is not an energy block, most of the raw materials of the dishes are algae, spirulina or chlorella. It has a strange smell after chewing for a long time. Fortunately, after the war, a batch was shipped down from Shangcheng District. Fruits and vegetables are sorted into standard rations. In addition to being distributed to citizens, they are also supplied to canteens of various departments.
The types and quantities of material rations have been calculated by Li Shuang, and are only slightly improved. Instead of directly distributing grains, oils, fruits and vegetables, the citizens of Xiacheng District can feel Xi'an's care without having other associations.
Li Liang now knows that this kind of calculated decision-making has always been throughout the development history of Xiacheng District. For example, the force of the garrison robot army cannot be too strong or too weak.
There are also price controls, education and entertainment standards, ideological orientation, etc., all of which have been rigorously calculated.
The existence of paper currency is precisely to keep gangs active in unmonitored illegal transactions, and also to allow citizens to earn visible and tangible banknotes through work, which is more practical than the numbers displayed by the system ID. It also feels more rewarding.
Zero has an insight into human nature. Xi'an's control is everywhere, but like the dew on the leaves in the morning, it is difficult for people in the lower city to detect it.
The freedom they thought was the freedom created by Xi'an. The gang rules in the dark corners actually played the same role as the law.
Li Shuang said that Zero's immortality is very "cyber", but the Xiacheng District under Zero's control has no soil for "punk".
However, the people in Xiacheng District, who are struggling with the life in front of them, don’t know that the era of civilization has quietly turned.
Li Liang tore open the aluminum foil packaging of the standard fruit ration, picked out an apple, and said casually: "How is the situation in Mexico City?"
House thought for a while and said: "It's basically stable and the rescue went smoothly, but some families have close ties with SoftBank and are not very obedient, so I..."
"People should be killed or killed. Gangs can kill, and people from SoftBank can also be killed, but killing people cannot solve the fundamental problem," Li Liang frowned. "It is easy to kill all uncooperative families or gangs. The problem is that their families must Don’t you want to kill? Do you want to kill the family members of your family members? Kill them all and the rest are just obedient sheep?”
House was visibly relieved and nodded.
"The same goes for the clans in Shangcheng District. The Temple of Gods, the Hall of Valor, the clans, and the company are very simple to kill. In one or two hours, all those who say something useful can be killed. Then what?" Li Liang weighed the apple, " You all know these truths, even if you ignore human life, you will not be afraid of people if you rely on killing them."
Li Ru said softly: "In this investigation, I will sort out a clear gang lineage, but the interests of the clan clan and Xi'an's various subsidiaries in Xiacheng District are intertwined..."
"These subsidiaries spend their energy and earn money that is like waste paper. In addition to the temple's orders, they also give themselves a gold medal to avoid death." Li Liang took a bite of the apple, "If what Hiken just said is true, Many families are hoarding arms, and SoftBank must be behind them. The existence of those messy posts on Activision Internet is certainly the result of Activision. Their good days are coming to an end."
He finished the apple in two mouthfuls, wiped his hands and said, "We can wait until Robben and the others come back to discuss the matters in the upper city. However, the gangs in the lower city must be integrated. The integration must be carried out according to the gang's rules. The joint meeting should not interfere. I will give it to the heroic spirits." According to the news from the palace, they can at most show restraint on the outside, but when it comes to the Xiacheng District, it’s up to you.”
Cain noticed his gaze, took the peeled orange out of his mouth, and said in shock: "Why do you still have to do with me?"
"Aren't you Lord Mayfly?"
"Li Liang," Cain looked up and down, "Pull up your pants... No, I should retire. You are so fucking awesome, and you want me to fight with the gang?"
"Otherwise?" Li Liang raised his eyebrows.
"This," Cain brought Mizuno over, "Mayfly's new Lord, I've appointed him, and there's King, how about Zhongjing returning to Spades?"
Mizuno shrank his shoulders, wiped the corners of his mouth, and smiled gently.
"Don't look at this bitch like a little lamb," Cain promoted Mizuno seriously, "I'm just pretending in front of you. If you don't believe me, you can ask House."
Li Liang turned to look at House. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Mizuno's eyes turned and glanced at the "ghoul".
House shook his head: "I'm not very familiar with Miss Sonoya."
Cain lifted the hem of his skirt, revealing the gun strapped to his thigh.
"But I heard that there is a Yakuza brother-in-law in Ichiban Street who is very capable and can even serve in the 'Three Musketeers'," House changed the subject without changing his expression.
"That's right," Cain pinched Mizuno's face with satisfaction, "The head of Yakuza's younger brother is this clean and hygienic Miss Sonoya."
Mizuno allowed himself to be manipulated, with a very innocent expression on his round face.
"What do you think?" Li Liang gestured to Li Ru to give him some advice.
Li Ru held the notebook and said, "Ms. Cain and Miss Sonoya are both suitable candidates."
"..." After licking his back molars, Cain turned to House and said, "President of the Joint Conference, don't even think about it. This guy looks dumb, but he's actually much smarter than you."
House was noncommittal, as if he hadn't heard this.
"Eat quickly, and go gather people after eating." Li Liang waved his hand, "The orders for the joint meeting are here. Work according to the orders. Kill when you should kill, buy when you should buy. Go through each city one by one."
Before Cain could cheat again, Li Ru leaned over and said, "I will send the list to you as soon as possible."
"Damn," Cain kicked out the door without looking back, then came back a moment later and patted Mizuno on the shoulder, "Go ahead, you picker of mayflies."
Li Liang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What about you?"
"Just like you, just talk and play the boss." Cain sat down in Director Liu's office chair and put his feet on the desk. "If you are short of money or guns, ask our president for help. Give me some ephemera." Armed to the crotch.”
Shui Ye smiled and nodded, bowed to Li Liang again, turned and left.
"I'm going to Rocky Mount City," House glanced at Cain, "Besides, gang annexation can easily cause chaos. The one who wipes out the mess is the Bureau of Order, and the agent gap needs to be filled."
"Well, you discuss this matter with Li Ru," Li Liang thought for a moment and then said, "By the way, the death lists of the Order Bureau, Supervision and Enforcement Bureau and the Citizen Resistance Organization must also be sorted out as soon as possible."
"yes."
After the two left together, Li Liang looked back at Cain, who was pretending to be asleep, and shook his head.
After going through so many strange twists and turns, this woman has not changed at all. As long as she is not in a situation where she has a gun to her head, she will never miss the opportunity if she can be lazy.
I hope the "key variable" mentioned by Master Yuanshi has nothing to do with Cain, otherwise it would be a mistake.
"Stop pretending, boss," Li Liang walked over and kicked the chair, "Where's K?"
Cain dodged for a moment and said angrily: "Who knows where he went."
"Zhou Xiaomian."
Cain sat up suddenly: "He went to pick up Chen Yishui and Old Tang."
"Director Liu will be back soon," Li Liang walked towards the door, "Let's go to the prefabricated room to continue distributing supplies... Zhou..."
Cain, who had just fallen back on his chair, bounced up, chased after him and asked seriously: "How much strength do you have left now?"
"you guess."
"..."
after an hour.
There were only a few citizens receiving supplies, and Cain had fallen asleep on the counter.
Li Liang sat next to her, with the faint smell of mint and camellia lingering in his nose, but the smell of engine oil was much lighter.
He realized that the smell of engine oil was probably not due to the fact that this woman had been on the Defiant all year round.
At this time.
The three of them pushed the door open and a small shadow flew up to the counter.
"Boss," K greeted.
Brother Shui and Old Tang behind him noticed Cain sleeping and said nothing.
Li Liang nodded to them, his eyes fell on Zhizhi on the counter, and found that the monkey was proudly showing off a bundle of things in his hand.
It was a collection of Horcruxes tangled together with ropes, including wands, weird rings and miniature skulls.
"Where did this come from?" Li Liang wondered.
He asked Brother Shui and Old Tang to bring monkeys last night to prevent uncooperative psychics from breaking out and hurting people, not to send monkeys to rob.
Old Tang Hou said fearfully: "Thanks to Zhizhi, there are really a few guys who have kept their spirits. I met three of them just at the beginning."
"Zhizhi does have control over necromancy magic," Brother Shui said in a low voice.
"Well," Li Liang glanced at the monkey who was tiptoeing about to tease Cain, "Let's go over there and talk."
As soon as the four of them reached the corner, they heard a gunshot from the counter, followed by a pop, and Cain's voice rang out: "Keep pretending dead and I'll kill you."
Li Liang didn't look back and asked without changing his expression: "Didn't the psychic always cooperate when the goblins invaded?"
"Alas," Old Tang sighed, "after Tomb died in the battle, there was no effective altar leader. Now the psychics are scattered. Some people are unwilling to work for the joint meeting anymore. The last investigation of Prometheus was very difficult. …”
Brother Shui sighed: "They saw the magic of goblins and found that their understanding of magic was ridiculous. They were probably disappointed."
"It doesn't matter," Li Liang said nonchalantly, "Originally I could do this, but the city is too big and I don't have that much time. When Robben comes back, the Tifami people's business group will also come. They are kind of portable. The detection tool can test the level of inspiration. This group of psychics is not important. What is important is how many people among humans can learn magic and Taoism. They must be organized to establish new psychics."
Brother Shui's eyes sparkled: "The new psychic can..."
"Learn real magic and Taoism," Li Liang raised his right hand, "And, I can enlighten you on seven of the 22 kinds of essences."
"Great," Old Tang became excited, "Now tell me, what essence did I enlighten?"
Li Liang patted Old Tang on the shoulder, gave an encouraging look, turned around and asked, "K, what's going on with the Natural Sect?"
"..."
K said casually: "The ones that can be dealt with are all small characters. This church has a strict hierarchy and it is difficult for ordinary believers to have access to the core secrets. I feel it is easier to start with Li Chengshu's resume."
"Well, the most important thing is the secret investigation," Li Liang took a deep breath, "I have a feeling that the waters of the Natural Sect are deeper than we imagined."
K sniffed and asked: "How long will it take for Robben to come back?"
Li Liang turned his head, his eyes seemed to pass through the wall, the sky, the gate of spiritual principles, and the dark spiritual sea, and saw the distant city of Avalon.
He said softly: "The Anchor Point Communication Base received the latest news last night..."
