deviation

The city outside No. 57 is shrouded in dense fog all the year round, and it is rare to see a day when the sun is shining brightly. Today's sunset accidentally squeezed in a lot, and sprinkled it on a person without hesitation.

This person stood on a high railing, obviously without any support around him, but he stood extremely stable, and opened his hands very leisurely, trying to embrace the sun.

The whole city was terribly dead, like a silhouette that had been sealed for a hundred years, except for this person, no real trace could be found.

Ji Yi vacated and stood behind him, he realized who this person was——Ji Yu.

Ji Yu turned around, found Ji Yi, and slightly licked the corner of his mouth towards him.Ji Yi subconsciously rushed towards Ji Yu, trying to catch this person.

It's a pity that what he held was only void, it turned out that even Jiyu was fake.

Ji Yu's figure was crushed by Ji Yi, only the smile remained, and Ji Yi seemed to see Ji Yu asking, "Are you happy?"

In the past, Ji Yi was a collection of survival desires. Now Ji Yi has a body, can step on the body, can be happy, angry, sad, and happy, but he doesn't know whether he is happy or not.

The season fish was completely shattered, turned into powder and floated around Ji Yi, Ji Yi grabbed the air, and had the illusion that he could touch the season fish.

"Ding--!!!"

A voice that was so loud that it was hard to ignore woke Ji Yi up from his dream. He opened his eyes suddenly, and there was still a familiar room around him, without any trace of Ji Yu—everything about Ji Yu had been thrown away long ago.

It took a few seconds for Ji Yi to realize what happened. The loud noise outside was an alarm, and it was a first-level alarm.

·

In 2157, the world's population decreased again and again, and the size of cities gradually shrank accordingly.

After several turbulences, the distribution of cities is now barely finalized. From the core cities to the fifth-tier cities, the scale is getting smaller and smaller, and the resources owned by the lower-tier cities are also getting fewer and fewer. Of course, the order is chaotic.

Among the third-tier cities, City No. 57 can be considered a relatively marginal city, with a small population and a small area. There are only inner and outer rings in the city.

Most of the people and most of the city's operating facilities are concentrated in the inner ring, while the outer ring gathers a group of people who were abandoned for various reasons.The difference between the inner ring and the outer ring is very big, the main reason is not the people, but the protective shield above them.

There have been many ruptures in the protective cover of City 57. The protective cover of the outer ring is very fragile and thin. No one can guarantee that it can last for a few years. casualties.

It's a pity that even the overlords of the Li family and the Lu family can't do anything. The protective shield is not something that small local forces like them can control. Even if they want to repair it, they don't have the ability.

So I can only carry on like this day by day, and after getting used to it, I can go on numbly. The residents of City 57 have long since lost the panic that they had more than ten years ago.

It has been like this for more than ten years, and it seems that it is not impossible to survive for another ten years.

However, it turns out that there is no such miracle.

Just today, the shield broke.

The rupture this time is different from the past. In the past, it was just a large bowl of cracks, which could be repaired quickly, but today it really cracked. The speed of repairing the protective cover has no meaning at all. The surrounding area was split, but within ten minutes, a hole the size of a basketball board had been opened!

All kinds of toxic gases from outside rushed in, and the colors were so clear that it was completely impossible for people to continue self-hypnosis.

And this opening happened to be above Ji Yi's house.

And Ji Yi's house is at the junction of the inner and outer rings, which is an awkward location. In the past, it was barely considered a safe area. The residents in this area are living in peace and stability. They may occasionally worry about the protective cover, but I can quickly convince myself that even if it is going to rot, it will be the edge of it.

It's a pity that this crumbling protective cover didn't know what these people had guessed, so it was caught off guard and cracked at this position.

The cordon has been pulled up long ago, wave after wave of robots are busy, the residents below have been evacuated, and various protective tools have been put down by human hair...

Standing in the crowd, Ji Yi looked at the location of his home, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Whether it is the city or the people living in the city, they rely too much on this layer of protective cover. Of course, they have thought of countless emergency countermeasures on weekdays, and they can copy them one by one if something happens... But compared to emergency, the more serious The collapse of faith.

Ji Yi listened to the cries around him, it was too loud and noisy, he couldn't hear what emotions were contained in it, he only knew that an indelible fear surrounded Ji Yi, and he was almost suffocated.

These things did not emanate from Ji Yi's body, but from the people around him. It was their years of repression and their fear of the future.

Ji Yi seemed to be pushed into the icy water all of a sudden. He was stiff and unable to move. He could only watch himself sink to the bottom... When all the light sources were about to disappear, the sinking and cold water around him suddenly It was gone, leaving only Ji Yi standing there helplessly.

Ji Yi waited for a long time before he heard his own breathing. It was very steady, and it was impossible to tell from the outside. Only he knew what happened just for a moment.

The robot started to chase people away and continued to expand the protective circle. Ji Yi couldn't remember when he was stuffed with a protective mask. He put on the mask slowly and followed the flow of people to escape.

Occupying this body for so long, it was the first time that Ji Yi had a real sense of being alive.

In the past, through Jiyu's perspective, he could see everything around him, but he couldn't feel emotions. It wasn't until today that he realized emotions for the first time.

It is not simple joy and anger, not simple sadness, but also spread from these emotions themselves, one after another real people.

So this is living, Ji Yi thought.

He looked up, and the protective cover was more severely cracked, and the lingering black gas finally had a chance, and it was stuffed into it desperately...

will i dieJi Yi came up with such an idea.

The tendency of the shield to rupture is very fast, and the city has no ability to deal with it. The current state is almost irreversible. It will be a matter of time before the entire city falls.

At that time, most people will definitely not be able to survive.

There were people running around, the robot was busy maintaining order, and Ji Yi stopped.He just knew what it was like to be alive, and before he had time to savor it carefully, he was about to face death in a blink of an eye.

What is the meaning of living?

In the past, Ji Yi wanted to survive, because he didn't want to be inferior to Ji Yu, so he could only take a peek at the world from Ji Yu's eyes.

Now Ji Yu's eyes, Ji Yu's body, Ji Yu's everything is her own, and then...?

Ji Yi is not in a desperate situation, he can take advantage of the chaos and escape now, the Li family who is in charge of traffic has just been paralyzed, he is not hopeless, escape from this city, leave here, go to a safe place...then what?

Ji Yi couldn't stop thinking about Ji Yu, over and over again.

Ji Yu, why doesn't he want to live anymore?

An exclamation interrupted Ji Yi's contemplation. He subconsciously followed the prestige and found a group of people in uniform rushing over - they were members of the alliance.

There was an accident in the protective cover, and it seemed that there was no way to save it, but anyone with a little ability must have been preparing to flee, and the only ones left at the scene of the disaster were robots and people with nowhere to go.

But now, the alliance has come.

The alliance is not the supreme ruling power obtained because of the hearts of the people. I have never heard of them dedicating themselves to the people and the city.

But the emergence of the alliance is a fact.

There are not many people from the alliance, and the leader is particularly conspicuous.

Ji Yi's mind shuddered, he remembered that there is still a big man in City 57, Shen Pengsan.

Ji Yi doesn't believe that Shen Pengsan's coming out at this time is for righteousness. Since he dared to stay, he must be sure to deal with the current situation.Ji Yi was very curious about this layer of protective cover. After calculating the situation, he started to go retrograde and moved towards the location of the alliance army.

There are not many opportunities to see the Union Army manipulating the shield with your own eyes.

The alliance army brought in a lot of equipment, all of which Ji Yi didn't recognize, but the symbols on them were not difficult to recognize. Every machine was painted with a black trumpet flower.

Ji Yi was taken aback.

The emblem of city No. 57 is blue cornflowers, and the black morning glory is the symbol of city No. 2. These devices are all from No. 2 city.

City No. 2 is so far away from City No. 57, it is obviously impossible to be temporarily transferred here.Shen Pengsan and the others knew that the shield would break, so they came here with the equipment? !

But how did they determine the time of rupture?Theoretically speaking, the protective cover is unmeasurable, at least based on the current public information, it should not be possible to predict the damage time and scope of the protective cover.

Is it possible that there has been a new breakthrough in the study of core cities?

The information is too confidential, Ji Yi can only make some vague speculations, but the scene in front of him is enough to point him to a new path - Shen Pengsan's arrival is likely to be related to the protective shield.

After all, the protective cover is much more important than the Li family's Lu family.

The surrounding people have been evacuated almost, the alliance army has circled this area separately, and the robot is patrolling back and forth to check if there are any people who have been missed.

The robot has a detection system, and Ji Yi couldn't hide, so he was quickly found. Several robots surrounded him, and the rigid mechanical voice kept repeating to ask him to leave the accident scene as soon as possible.

Ji Yi was escorted by two robots all the way, and retreated to the "safe area", where many residents were settled, and they all realized that the people of the alliance were repairing the protective cover, and they kept looking forward with their hearts hanging.

This place is already far away from the rupture. The robot almost drove them to the core area of ​​City 57. Even if they stretched their necks, they couldn't see any details, but the various colored gases permeating above gradually dissipated. After that, no new poisonous gas will flood in afterward.

The alliance really blocked the breach.

Although the protective cover has been repaired, the influx of gas has not been cleaned up, and they are still required to stay where they are, waiting for the alliance to command.

This wait is a whole night.

Throughout the night, no one was able to sleep peacefully, and they all waited for the verdict with their own fear.No one could cheer when they heard that the alliance had confirmed that the danger had been eliminated. All the emotions accumulated during the day were densely condensed on the surface of people, making them depressed, suffocated and numb.

The sky turned white, this whiteness was not pure, it was wrapped in endless black mist, it looked the same as every day in the past.

But that's just what it looks like.

The countdown to the city's destruction has been naked|naked|naked in front of everyone, even if they are blindfolded, they can hear the rustling of time.

Ji Yi looked at the sky, a little dazed, he didn't have time to think about the demise of the city, he just watched the gas that came in was collected and then disappeared...

The protective cover is too important in everyone's heart, so everyone else only remembers to pay attention to the repair process of the protective cover. Only Ji Yi witnessed the whole process and saw how the poisonous gas dissipated.

It's like being purified.
