Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 2 review (recommendation ticket)

When the second hand of the old wall clock that may stop at any time in the activity center zhi zhi, after three and a half turns, the LCD Lines of text finally appeared on the display.

Meng Xia and others quickly searched for their own names, and then relaxed one after another.

Most of them are not satisfied or excited, but they are not unhappy. For them, taking the exam is no different in normal times, as long as the result is not too bad, anyway, their father mother, grandfather grandma, grandfather and grandmother also come here.

The remaining ones are more doubtful, because they don’t know who their marriage partner is, which floor they are from, and which department their parents belong to—even if they all go to university, receive higher education, and know People are still concentrated in the same department and “neighbors” on the same floor.

Long Yuehong looked up and down several times carefully, and couldn’t help but mutter to himself:

“Why is there no my name?”

“Because your name is not good enough.” The expression of Shang Jianyao next to him did not change.

“…” Long Yuehong wanted to refute, but sadly discovered that he somewhat agreed with the other party’s conclusion.

This time there are thousands of people who meet the conditions and are forced to participate in unified marriages, and there are only two more men than women. If it is not for a bad life, a bad name, and bad luck, how could it be? Become one of two bad luck ghosts?

Long Yuehong paused, and said angrily:

“There is no your name either!”

He didn’t see which woman Shang Jianyao successfully paired with .

Shang Jianyao raised his right eyebrow slightly and said:

“Didn’t I say it? I have already applied to give up this unified marriage.”

” This, this, really? How could the company, how could it promise…” Long Yuehong was shocked and confused, feeling that the world view was subverted.

He has lived for 21 years. He has indeed heard of qualified individuals who did not participate in the unified marriage, but there are good reasons: the other party is not lying in a hospital bed, and may die at any time, that is Participated in the external operation of the Ministry of Security, and I wonder if I can come back.

No one who is in good health and qualified within the company dares to violate the regulations.

This is one of the core obligations of a company employee.

Long Yuehong was dissipated by this incident and looked at Shang Jianyao and said:

“Are you going to accept the reduction of energy ration share?

“This Not bad, the most terrifying thing is the contribution point deduction. You simply can’t eat enough! We can only set DLevel 1, only 1800 points a month, and only eat meat once a week. What is the concept of deducting one third at a time? “

“The company agreed, no deduction. “Shang Jianyao said with a little smile.

“No, impossible, impossible…” Long Yuehong muttered to himself, and suddenly thought of something.

If Shang Jianyao is true The application for giving up this unified marriage means that there is only one more male than females participating in this marriage.

Only one more person…

Me, me This is the only bad luck egg…Long Yuehong’s mouth is half open, and a strong sadness emerges in his heart.

At this time, the display screen starts to turn pages, briefly introducing those who have successfully matched with the residents on this floor Basic information of people in order to find each other, go to the “Order Supervision Bureau” under the “Order Supervision Department” to register for marriage.

“Meng Xia, your husband is Outsider! “After everyone watched for a while, the women broke out in exclamation first.

Meng Xia’s expression was a little condensed, her eyes moved slightly, and she whispered:

” Zhang Lei; Male; Birth: Wilderness Wanderer; Age: 25 years old; was absorbed by the company 3 years ago, and his performance has been good; there is no hidden danger in his body; residence: No. 192, Area A, 622 floor; employee level: D4; electronic card number: 04311029189 ……”

“There really is an Outsider……” Long Yuehong was also attracted by this incident, and started talking with his colleagues.

They all know that the company will regularly absorb The Wilderness Wanderers supplement the population and improve their genes. However, because the residents on this floor have never been colleagues with Outsiders, and no one has married them, so everyone treats this matter as an anecdote. /p>

“Meng Xia, it’s actually okay. Although he used to be a wilderness wanderer, he is now a DLevel 4 employee. He is only 25 years old. Very difficult to deal with! “Girls wearing green shirts and blue trousers comfort their friends.

D4 means that from ordinary employees to senior employees, senior employees can serve as deputy positions for small research projects, factory production line monitors, The Vice Group Leader of the security forces and the order supervisors of a certain floor and a certain area have a salary increase of at least 2000 points compared with D1.

“The effect of genetic improvement after adulthood is not so good. …” The young man on the other side of Long Yuehong murmured.

At this time, he saw the information of his marriage partner:

“Zhou Qi; female; birth: internal employee ; Age: 30 years old; once had a husband, died 5 years, and currently raises a child; is actively applying to participate in this unified marriage; no physical hazard; domicile: No. 27, B area, 569 floor; employee level: D4; electronic Card number: 01609052558…”

“Yang Zhenyuan, your wife is 10 years older than you…” Long Yuehong also saw this entry.

Yang Zhenyuan and most of the peers of the company The same, the face is white, the body is strong, the appearance is good, but it is slightly delicate and pretty, and looks more introverted.

Hearing Long Yuehong’s words, Yang Zhenyuan’s face turned red and wanted to say something. But I could not say it.

After a while, everyone finally wrote down the corresponding information, and then left the activity center one after another, preparing to find their spouse, or go home and wait for the other person to find it.

At this moment, in the hall with five or six people left, a voice suddenly sounded:

“Who is Yang Zhenyuan? “

“Me, what’s the matter?” “Yang Zhenyuan, who was chatting with Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao, turned his head and looked towards the door subconsciously.

A woman came in at the gate of the activity center. Her appearance was mature and charming, and her clothes were simple and monotonous, but completely covered up. Can’t help that proud figure.

“I am Zhou Qi. “The woman glanced at Yang Zhenyuan, nodded with satisfaction, “Go to your house to talk first?” “

Yang Zhenyuan was surprised at first, and then nodded frequently:

“Good, good. “

“Then go now?” “Zhou Qi smiled like a flower.

“Good, good. “Yang Zhenyuan said and walked quickly.

Long Yuehong watched the pair leave the activity center blankly, and couldn’t help sighing:

“I will next What should I do? “

Shang Jianyao turned his head and looked at him solemnly:

“A great cause awaits you.” “

“…” Long Yuehong’s face muscles twitched, “Talking! “

Shang Jianyao smiled and said:

” Waiting for the unified marriage next year. “

“Yes. “Long Yuehong sighed, “Hey, I don’t want this anymore, I hope I can be assigned a good position tomorrow. Also, Shang Jianyao, I always feel that you are getting more and more abnormal. I mean the brain. “

While speaking, he pointed to his temple.

The most important thing for them is to wait for the assignment of work, which will directly determine their future life-except for There are specialties in some aspects. Those who are reserved by the corresponding department in advance, the remaining higher education graduates have to wait for assignment.

Shang Jianyao has not responded yet, and Long Yuehong saw the activity center director Chen Xianyu turn it off. On the display screen, holding a cylindrical metal water cup unearthed from the relics of the old world, I walked over slowly, so he asked casually:

“Grandpa Chen, what do you think we will allocate department? “

Chen Xianyu coughed:

“As far as I know, those who have just gotten married and are about to have children will be assigned to safer internal positions, but they have not been assigned to the target. For those who do not need to have children for the time being, the position may be a bit dangerous. “

Long Yuehong’s expression suddenly collapsed:

“I, I have to go back and tell my parents and my mom the result of the marriage.” “

He didn’t wait for Shang Jianyao’s response. He was crying and walked out of the activity center.

“Your father and your mother haven’t got off work yet…” Shang Jianyao whispered, then left, and arrived. On the aisle outside.

This is the 495th floor of the underground building. There is no sky. There is only a 4-meter-high ceiling. Long tube lights are inlaid on it at intervals, and the rays of light are scattered. .

For the employees of the company, the street lights are on during the day, and the street lights are off at night.

Shang Jianyao raised his head and glanced at the street light in front of him, and turned to another in Area C. Place.

On both sides of the road, rooms are close to each other, and the width is only about two meters, as if the honeycombs in the textbook spread to the same plane.

Compared with them , The activity center is as spacious as a square.

After walking through the two “streets”, a relatively open area appeared in front of Shang Jianyao, where twelve elevators were placed.

This is an elevator that leads directly to the “research area”.

In this underground building from the old world, in order to prevent congestion and accidents, the “living area” leads to the “factory area” and the “research area” In the narrow sense, the elevators of the “inner ecological zone” are separated and located in different areas of the floor.

The “management zone” and “energy zone” are merged with the “research zone”, but only need Swipe the electronic card to confirm the permission to arrive.

Shang Jianyao waited for a while, entered the elevator in the middle, and clicked the number “21” casually.

Because it was during working hours , The elevator did not stop halfway, and it descended steadily.

In the process, Shang Jianyao suddenly took out his electronic card and swiped it in the corresponding area.

Then, he Press the metal key that represents the 3rd floor.

The elevator continued to descend and stopped after a while.

Shang Jianyao got out of the elevator, turned to the left, and saw a A large metal door is closed, and there are four armed security guards wearing bionic armor like standing lizards.

Shang Jianyao did not try to get close to the metal door. Go to the right side of the aisle.

At the end of the corridor, there are several rooms lined up, but there are no doorplates.

Under the shining of the ceiling fluorescent lamp, Shang Jianyao hit the corner Door.

“Please In. “A soft female voice came out.

Shang Jianyao twisted the handle and opened the door, and saw a lady in a white coat.

Behind the wood-colored table, she looks like her in her thirties. She wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.

Her hair is neat and tidy, and only scattered strands of hair fall.

“It’s you. The lady glanced at Shang Jianyao, smiled and pointed to the back chair across the table, “Sit down.” “

Shang Jianyao sat down and said with a smile as if going home:

“Good afternoon, Doctor Lin. “

“Good afternoon, little business.” “Doctor Lin picked up her hair, took a folder next to it, and spread it out in front of her.

Then, she played with the black pen and asked casually:

“How are you feeling lately? “

“I have a bigger appetite, my sleep is normal, and my body is healthy.” “Shang Jianyao said and made a move to highlight the biceps.

Dr. Lin nodded:

“I have already applied for you to give up the unified marriage. You can see the result. Right? “

“Well, thank you.” “Shang Jianyao said with a smile, “Can I sing a song to thank you?” “

“No. “Dr. Lin shook her head without the slightest hesitation.

She immediately hit the pen:

“Actually, I’m curious, why did you abandon unified marriage?” Your situation is not serious. “

Shang Jianyao’s expression straightened, said solemnly:

“In order to save all mankind.” “

“…” Dr. Lin picked up the pen and drew a heavy circle somewhere in the document in front of him.

There was a line written in that circle:

“Moderate exceptional spirit (suspected delusion, to be seen). “
