After listening to Jingnan's introduction, Lin En suddenly felt like
I see!
"Genes can change!"
It is this sentence that rekindles the hope of countless ordinary people.
Since genes can be changed, maybe if I take another test now I can become a citizen?
Even if this possibility is only one in ten thousand or one in one hundred thousand, who can guarantee that it will not fall on you?
It just so happens that all the Shangmin have to be re-examined this time. This is an opportunity. The hope of becoming a Shangmin is right in front of us.
The people's demands for "one more genetic test" must be so loud that they have to be ignored.
Today's meeting is probably related to this!
The two walked while talking,
After a while, he arrived at the door of the city main hall, pushed the door open and entered.
Most of the top leaders of the lighthouse have already arrived. In addition to the two of them, there are also Victor, the commander-in-chief of the city defense army, Mark, the commander-in-chief of the wilderness hunter, Charles, the leader of the Light and Shadow Association, Dr. Carrie, the medical director, and the chief engineer of the three-dimensional research.
Jessica, Logistics Department, Chenxi Hall Supervisor and many others,
When Jessica saw Lin En and Jing Nan coming in together, she gave him a subtle roll of her eyes.
On the high steps, City Lord Morgan said:
"Everyone is here, let's discuss it! Regarding the requirements of the dust people this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Charles stepped forward and said loudly: "I don't think there is anything to discuss in this matter!"
"The lowliness of those ordinary people is natural and is arranged by the Lord of Light and Shadow, but now they actually want to change it. This is disrespectful to the Lord. Not only should they not agree, but they should also be severely punished!"
After saying that, he raised his chin and glanced at Lin En arrogantly.
Everyone could see what he meant. These words were aimed at all Chenmin, including Lin En, who was promoted from Chenmin.
Linn raised his brows, showing no intention of indulging him. He strode up to Charles and looked at him condescendingly. Before anyone could react,
"Huh" slapped hard on his proud face,
Charles spun and flew far away, fell heavily to the ground, struggled to get up, and stared directly at Lin En, as if he couldn't believe that he actually dared to do it in front of so many people in the city lord's hall.
Slap yourself?
Lin En waved his hand lightly and said with a sincere expression: "Master Huishou, I don't know why, but when I see your noble face, my hands feel itchy. I can't suppress the desire to slap you. I
I think this may be engraved in the genes, and it must be the arrangement of the Lord of Light and Shadow, you won’t blame me, right?”
…
Phew!
"Hahaha!"
Many people couldn't help laughing, but Mark laughed out loud.
He had always been kind to the dustmen and did not recognize them as useless people. When he heard Charles commenting on the dustmen that they were born low, he was already unhappy. Before he could refute, Linn responded to Charles's words with a slap in the face.
provocative,
And the meaning behind the words is, according to your logic, then it is God’s arrangement for me to hit you, and you can’t blame me!
"Be bold!"
"You actually just did it in front of the city lord!"
"Catch him"
Several people who were leaning towards Charles seemed to have just woken up and shouted loudly with red faces.
However, the city defense troops guarding the hall only listened to Morgan's orders and remained motionless until the city lord made a statement, as if they had not heard them.
Charles had been helped up and looked at Linn angrily, but he didn't know how to refute.
Although the Society of Light and Shadow has penetrated into every aspect of the lighthouse, it is a behemoth with many people.
But there was no force involved, and he also understood that this was the city lord's restriction on him.
I can only turn to the city lord for help, hoping that he can make the decision for me.
Morgan raised his eyes and glanced at Charles' face,
"Okay, there is no need to argue. According to the law of the lighthouse, the penalty for fighting between Shanghing residents is 100 contribution points. Linn, do you have any objections?"
What objections can there be to this? Such a punishment is almost equivalent to no punishment for Linn!
Lin En smiled and shook his head, "I accept the punishment of the lighthouse law, Lord City Lord."
Charles' eyes widened suddenly and he looked at Morgan in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that the city lord let Linn go so gently.
Morgan said as if he hadn't seen him: "Continuing to discuss the topic just now, what do you think about the dust people's request for re-testing genes?"
Charles clenched his fists tightly but lowered his head. The disappointment and humiliation in his eyes made him tremble all over.
cannot understand,
I have worked hard for so many years to manage the Light and Shadow Society and maintain order in the lighthouse, and now I am being humiliated in front of everyone.
And the Lord of the City let Lin En go so easily?
right!
He desires power more than ever!
As long as you have rights, you won't let others humiliate you like this.
His father, Lord Morgan, is old and has lost his ambition.
The Lighthouse needs a bolder leader...
At this time, everyone in the hall was already noisy.
Most senior executives are unwilling to agree to another test by Chenmin.
Some people do it for their own interests, but some do it for the lighthouse,
If only Shangmin does genetic testing, it will only update the brain database. If ordinary people are added, it will become a class change. What if some Shangmin becomes ordinary people?
To take a step back,
If a large number of ordinary people really become superior people again, how to arrange these people?
They have not received Shangmin's education since they were young. How can they do Shangmin's job? Do they need to be trained from scratch?
They are already so old, why should they go to school for ten more years?
How can a lighthouse have so many resources to waste!
This is simply not realistic...
There are people who agree, but there is only Mark. He is not good at words and can only say one sentence: common people are human beings too, and they also have rights!
He has an ordinary brain and does not consider any consequences at all!
Lin En almost laughed out loud as she watched him twisting and turning over this sentence.
This Mark always misses the point.
Thinking of this, he said directly: "Dr. Carrie! Can genes really change?"
There was a sudden silence in the hall!
Yes! Will genes really change? They all just heard the rumors and anxiously discussed countermeasures here without verifying the rumors at all.
The most qualified person on the lighthouse to answer this question is Dr. Carrie.
She is the director of the medical department and also runs the Institute of Ecology.
Everyone's eyes turned to her,
Dr. Carrie, as if she had just woken up, lit a cigarette to refresh herself as if nothing had happened, took a deep breath, and blew out a big smoke ring.
Then he said slowly: "Of course it will change! Otherwise, how could humans evolve?"
