Chapter 2 Review (Recommendation Vote Requested)
When the second hand of the old wall clock in the activity center, which could stop at any time, creaked three and a half times, lines of text finally appeared on the LCD screen.
Meng Xia and the others quickly looked for their names, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Most of them are not satisfied or uplifted, but they are not unhappy either. For them, this is no different from taking exams normally, as long as the results are not too bad, anyway, their fathers, mothers, grandparents, and grandparents are also like this.
The rest are more confused because they don't know who they are marrying, what floor they are from, or what department their parents belong to - even if they both go to university and receive higher education, the people they know are still concentrated in the same department and "neighbors" on the same floor.
Long Yue Hongzai looked up and down several times carefully, and couldn't help but whisper to himself:
"Why is there no name on me?"
"Because your name is not good enough." Shang Jianyao's expression next to him did not change at all.
"......" Long Yuehong wanted to refute, but sadly found that she somewhat agreed with the other party's conclusion.
This time, there are thousands of people who are forced to participate in the unified marriage, and there are only two more men than women.
Long Yuehong paused for a moment and said sadly and angrily:
"There is no name on you!"
He didn't see which woman Shang Jianyao was successfully matched with.
Shang Jianyao raised his right eyebrows slightly and said:
"Didn't I say it? I have applied to give up this unified marriage."
"This, this, really? How could the company agree, how could it agree......" Long Yuehong was stunned and confused, feeling that her worldview had been subverted.
He has lived for 21 years, and he has indeed heard that anyone who meets the conditions has not participated in the unified marriage, but there are good reasons: the other party is either lying in a hospital bed and may die at any time, or he has participated in the external operations of the Ministry of Security, and I don't know if he can come back.
No one who is in good health and meets the requirements within the company dare to violate the regulations.
This is one of the core obligations of being an employee of a company.
Long Yuehong was dissipated by this incident, and looked at Shang Jianyao and said:
"Are you ready to accept a reduction in the share of energy rationing?
"This is not bad, the most terrible thing is the deduction of contribution points. You can't eat enough at all! What is the concept of us who can only set D1 level, only 1,800 points a month, and can only eat meat once a week, deducting one-third at a time?"
"The company agrees, no need to deduct." Shang Jianyao smiled slightly.
"No, it's impossible, it's impossible......" Long Yuehong muttered to himself, and suddenly thought of something.
If Shang Jianyao really applied to give up this unified marriage, it would mean that there was only one more man than woman participating in this marriage.
There was only one more person......
I, I am the only unlucky one...... Long Yuehong's mouth was half open, and a strong sadness welled up in her heart.
At this time, the display screen began to turn the page, briefly introducing the basic information of those who were successfully matched with the residents on this floor, so that they could find each other and register their marriages in the various "Order Supervision Bureaus" under the "Order Supervision Department".
"Meng Xia, your husband is an outsider!" After everyone watched for a while, the woman took the lead in exclaiming.
Meng Xia's expression was slightly calm, her eyes moved slightly, and she whispered:
"Zhang Lei; Man; Born: Wilderness Wanderer; Age: 25 years old; It was absorbed by the company 3 years ago and has been performing well; There are no hidden dangers to the body; Residence: No. 192, Area A, 622nd floor; Employee level: D4; Electronic Card Number: 04311029189......"
"There are really outsiders......" Long Yuehong was also attracted by this matter and turned her head to discuss with her companions.
They all know that the company regularly recruits wilderness wanderers to replenish the population and improve their genes, but because the residents on this floor have never been colleagues with outsiders before, and no one has married them, everyone treats this matter more as an anecdote.
"Meng Xia, it's actually okay, although he used to be a wild wanderer, but now he is a D4 level employee, only 25 years old, very powerful!" The girl wearing a green top and blue trousers comforted her friend.
D4 means that from ordinary employees to senior employees and senior employees, they can serve as deputy positions in small research projects, squad leaders in factory production lines, deputy team leaders in security forces, and order supervisors in certain floors and districts, with at least 2,000 points higher than D1.
"But the effect of genetic improvement after adulthood is not so good......" The young man on the other side of Long Yuehong muttered.
At this time, he saw the information of his marriage partner:
"Zhou Qi; Woman; Born: Internal employees; Age: 30 years old; once had a husband, died 5 years ago, and is currently raising a child; the department took the initiative to apply to participate in this unified marriage; There are no hidden dangers to the body; Residence: No. 27, Area B, 569th 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, like most of his peers in the company, has a fair face, a strong body, and a good look, but he is slightly handsome and looks more introverted.
Hearing Long Yuehong's words, Yang Zhenyuan's face turned red, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
After a while, everyone finally wrote down the corresponding information, and then left the activity center one after another, ready to find their spouse, or go home and wait for the other party to find it.
At this time, in the hall where there were still 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, subconsciously turned his head to look at the door.
A woman came in at the door of the activity center, she had a mature and charming appearance, and although her clothes were simple and monotonous, she could not hide her proud figure at all.
"I'm Zhou Qi." The woman glanced at Yang Zhenyuan and nodded in satisfaction, "Let's go to your house to talk first?"
Yang Zhenyuan was startled at first, and then nodded frequently:
"Okay, okay."
"Then let's go now?" Zhou Qi smiled like a flower.
"Okay, okay." Yang Zhenyuan said as he walked over quickly.
Long Yue looked at the pair leaving the activity center in a daze, and couldn't help but lament:
"What should I do next?"
Shang Jianyao turned his head sideways and looked at him seriously:
"Great causes await you."
"......" Long Yue's red face muscles twitched, "Speak human language!"
Shang Jianyao smiled and said:
"Wait for next year's unified marriage."
"Yes." Long Yuehong sighed, "Hey, I don't want to do this anymore, I hope I can be assigned a good position tomorrow. Also, Shang Jianyao, I always feel that you are becoming more and more abnormal, I mean the brain."
As he spoke, he pointed to his temples.
The most important thing for them next is to wait for the assignment of work, which will directly determine their future life - except for those who are booked by the corresponding department in advance due to certain specialties, the rest of the higher education graduates have to wait for assignment.
Before Shang Jianyao could respond, Long Yuehong saw Chen Xianyu, the director of the activity center, turn off the display screen and walk over slowly with a cylindrical metal water cup excavated from the ruins of the old world, so he asked casually with some apprehension:
"Grandpa Chen, what department do you think we will be assigned to?"
Chen Xianyu coughed:
"As far as I know, those who have just gotten married and are about to start giving birth will be assigned to safer internal positions.
Long Yuehong's expression suddenly collapsed:
"I, I have to go back and tell my dad and mom the marriage results."
He didn't wait for Shang Jianyao's response, and walked out of the activity center with a sad face.
"Your father and mother haven't gotten off work yet......" Shang Jianyao whispered, followed him away, and came to the aisle outside.
This is the 495th floor of the underground building, there is no sky, only a 4-meter-high ceiling, and the long tube lamps are uniformly inlaid on it, scattering a fairly bright light.
For employees within the company, the street lights are on during the day, and when the street lights are off, it is night.
Shang Jianyao looked up at the street lamp in front of him and turned to another place in Area C.
On both sides of the road, the rooms are closely adjacent to each other, and the width is only about two meters, as if the beehive in a textbook has spread out to the same plane.
Compared to them, the activity center is spacious like a square.
After walking through the two "streets", a relatively open place appeared in front of Shang Jianyao, where twelve elevators were placed.
This is an elevator that goes directly to the "research area".
In this underground building of Old World origin, to prevent congestion and accidents, the elevators that lead to the "factory area", "research area" and narrowly "inner ecological area" are separated and located in different areas of the floor.
The "Management Zone" and "Energy Zone" are merged with the "Research Zone", but you only need to swipe your electronic card to confirm the permissions before you can arrive.
Shang Jianyao waited for a while, entered an elevator in the middle, and pressed the number "21" casually.
Because it was working hours, the elevator did not stop in the middle and continued to descend smoothly.
During this process, Shang Jianyao suddenly took out his electronic card and swiped it in the corresponding area.
Then, he pressed the metal key representing the third floor.
The elevator continued to descend, and it took a while before it stopped.
Shang Jianyao got out of the elevator, turned to the left, and saw a large metal door that was closed and opened opposite, and there were four armed security guards wearing bionic armor like upright lizards outside the door.
Shang Jianyao didn't try to get close to the metal door, but walked along the aisle outside the door to the right.
There are several rooms lined up at the end of the hallway, but none of them have door signs.
Under the light of the fluorescent lamp on the ceiling, Shang Jianyao knocked on the door in the far corner.
"Please come in." A soft female voice came out.
Shang Jianyao twisted the handle, pushed open the door, and saw a lady in a white coat.
The woman sat behind a log-colored table, looking in her thirties, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.
Her hair was neatly arranged, with only sporadic strands hanging down.
"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 smiled as if he were going home:
"Good afternoon, Dr. Lin."
"Good afternoon, Xiao Shang." Dr. Lin lifted his hair, took a folder next to him, and spread it out in front of him.
Then, she played with the black pen and asked casually:
"How are you feeling lately?"
"My appetite has become a little bigger, my sleep is normal, and my body is very healthy." Shang Jianyao said as he made a movement that highlighted the biceps.
Dr. Lin nodded:
"I have already helped you apply to give up the unified marriage, do you see the result?"
"Well, thank you." Shang Jianyao smiled and said, "Can I sing a song to thank you?"
"No." Dr. Lin shook his head without hesitation.
She then pestled the pen:
"Actually, I'm curious, why do you have to give up the unified marriage? Your condition is not serious."
Shang Jianyao's expression was straight, and he said in a deep voice:
"To save all mankind."
"......" Dr. Lin picked up the pen and drew a circle somewhere in front of him.
There is a line written in that circle:
"Moderate mental disorder (suspected paranoia, to be observed)."
