After Vasilev took over the Forbidden City, many institutions changed. There are fewer self-sufficient jobs in the city, and most people are assigned to help some companies produce parts or handmade products. Although most of the factories are now fully automated, the handmade products produced by the Earth Alliance have always been sought after in other star countries. In fact, the rich people who buy these goods in the star country do not know that most of these handicrafts are made by these criminals in the forbidden city.
This method of Vasilev brought a lot of benefits to the Forbidden City, so the salaries of the guards increased, which made many of the guards who did not support Vasilev very much defected. But at the same time, everyone's workload has doubled due to fewer people supporting the inner workings of the city. And everyone has a fixed amount of tasks every day, and they can't even eat food if they can't complete it before dinner.
Ethan's new task was assigned to the garbage station, sorting the smelly domestic garbage every day, and moving it to a fixed location for incineration and landfill. They don't have the most basic gas masks, only a simple cloth to cover their faces, which can't stop the thick stench from rushing into their nasal passages. Every day, I carry countless bags of heavy garbage, and my hands and feet are shaking when I finish work at night.
Ethan couldn't finish his tasks on time in the first few days, and usually had to stay in the junkyard until curfew with several other betas and omegas who were obviously not as good at manual labor as he was before dragging his limp legs back. However, he didn't dare to rest after going back. Once he saw that there were other Alphas in Tito's room discussing matters with him, he had to hide in the bathroom and wait until there was no one else to go back. If Tito was having sex with an Omega in his harem, he might have to sit on the toilet all night and sleep against the wall of the cubicle. On weekdays, he hides from Tito as long as he can, but when he can't dodge, he will inevitably be beaten, and then like a slave, he will pour tea and water for the other party, go to the bathroom to wash his feet, and sometimes he has to massage the other party. Uncomfortable, another beating.
There are several Alphas in Tito's staff who always look him up and down with a look that makes his hair stand on end, as if stripping him naked in the air. One of the Alphas, Black Falcon, was particularly interested in him. One day when Ethan came back, Tito locked the door, and there was a groan of pain and gasping from the inside. Ethan had no choice but to go to the bathroom and wait, but he didn't want someone to suddenly squeeze in behind him just after entering the bathroom, push him in, turn around and lock the door.
Before Ethan could get up, he felt his collar being grabbed and pressed against the washstand, and a rough and powerful hand was rudely pulling at his pants. He struggled, tugging at his pants while shouting loudly. The hot breath sprayed into his neck, and the black falcon bit his earlobe and said, "Damn, don't move, let me cool!"
Ethan forced himself to calm down and said through gritted teeth, "If you don't want to die, let me go now!"
"Ha! The mouth is quite hard!" After all, the opponent's strength was much stronger than his, and he ripped off his outer pants. Ethan hurriedly clamped his legs and grabbed the edge of his panties, struggling and twisting like crazy, and the Black Falcon really couldn't hold him down for a while. Alpha was so angry that he pressed his head and slammed into the mirror, shattering the lens and cutting his forehead. Ethan only felt that red covered his field of vision, and there was a strong smell of blood in his mouth.
There was probably too much movement, and the toilet door was knocked hard. I just heard another Tito's subordinate shouting angrily, "Heizi! The boss tells you to come out quickly! Otherwise, you won't be able to eat and go!"
Of course, the Black Falcon was still afraid of Tito, so he scolded him, and finally kicked Ethan's calf again before reluctantly letting him go.
From then on, Ethan was even more trembling, he didn't even dare to sleep too hard, and the slightest disturbance would wake him up. After a period of time, his cheeks were sunken, the bruises under his eyes became more and more obvious, and the whole person showed a sick look.
At the same time, he was also trying to find out what was going on in the East Side. Among the people he worked with at the junkyard was a red-haired Beta who doubled down on sewer cleaning, so there were frequent opportunities to meet people from the Eastside. Ethan did a lot of work for that Beta to get the following news.
It is said that Samuel has been escorted back to the forbidden city, but the situation is not very optimistic when the identity of Omega is exposed. It is said that there is already chaos in the East District. Originally, Samuel's subordinates have now become the laughing stock of Alpha. A group of Alphas have honestly obeyed Omega for so many years. Use it as promotional material. Many Alphas feel that they are completely unacceptable after being deceived. They seem to try to block Samuel in the alley and plot against him to regain their Alpha dignity. However, after a bloody battle, Samuel actually withstood the siege of the four Alphas by himself. Although he was beaten to the point of vomiting blood, the four Alphas were even worse. Two of the Alphas were kicked and his ribs were broken. The hand was dislocated, and one had two front teeth knocked out.
And Schneider was also taken to the forbidden city two days ago, which is said to have caused a riot.
After all, how many chances do you have to see the captain of the guard who once commanded him to be forced to put on his prison uniform and become the same scum of the forbidden city? Not only non-humans, but even the guards had a lot of excitement to climax. On the day Schneider entered the city, the inhumans in his dormitory tried to mark him.
But apparently because Schneider was popular among the guards, many guards took care of him so much that the chaos was stopped in time. Schneider was also moved to Samuel's bedroom.
Vasilev deliberately leaked the results of Schneider's trial, saying that some inhumans were willing to testify in court, saying that he had an affair with Samuel, and the two covered up evidence that they were Omegas for each other. Now everyone knows that Samuel and Schneider have an affair.
Having two Omegas together, even if one of them is actually bisexual, is deviant and disgusting for most conservative Earth Alliance citizens and non-humans alike. Not only Alpha, but even many Omegas in the forbidden city are pointing at those two people, saying they are perverts. They were isolated among non-human beings, and Alpha made trouble for no reason several times, and even the food divider deliberately gave them two expired food. In short, their current situation is very bad.
Ethan inquired and inquired, but did not hear that Taifeng was implicated. It is even heard that he is now assigned to work in the warehouse, which is a very rewarding idle job.
According to Vasilev's usual habit, Taifeng can never be so free. Unless, he really is the inner ghost who betrayed Samuel and Schneider that Ethan suspected.
Ethan originally didn't want to believe it, but now it seems that he has no choice but to believe it. He didn't know when Taifeng was bought, maybe after he was assigned to the team led by Vasilev on Muscle. Perhaps Vasilev promised that if he betrayed Samuel, he would be rewarded. Perhaps Vasilev's violence threatened Taifeng. Maybe Taifeng had to betray his friends because he was too scared and just wanted to protect himself.
Ethan tried his best to understand the reason for what he did from Taifeng's point of view, but he still felt very disappointed and heartbroken.
The Taifeng he knew would never do such a thing of revenge. Although I know that everyone is in danger in the forbidden city, and that everyone will change after staying in a terrifying and difficult environment for a long time, but it really happened around him, and it happened in front of him, and it still made his throat bitter and unacceptable. .
But on second thought, why hasn't he changed? He has killed so many people, and now he can still live like this. Even when personal safety is threatened, the first thought is to use that evil power to kill people.
I don't know when, he is no longer the regular, cowardly but always kind-hearted self. The dark thoughts in his mind are getting more and more dense, and maybe they have begun to affect his behavior.
The Forbidden City changed everyone.
Ethan is so worried about Samuel and Schneider's situation that he decides to infiltrate the East End anyway to meet them. It's just that there are a lot of robot police monitoring them near all workplaces and places of residence. The monitoring program sets that they can only appear in three places every day: the place of residence, the canteen, and the workplace. Any attempt to set foot in other places unless it is a After special approval, otherwise they will be locked and attacked by the robot police. So it's not that easy to get away.
Ethan thought of turning to an organization—the Benefactor Society.
Although the entire Forbidden City is now in panic, the Benefactor Association seems to have not been affected in any way, and it is even allowed to hold two daily worship gatherings in some idle venues. Ethan guessed that Chen Zeng and Vasilev reached some kind of consensus that he did not know. Maybe Vasilev wanted to control the entire forbidden city by controlling the Benefactor Association.
Ethan has to say that Vasilev's series of methods are very resolute and hit the nail on the head. In less than a month, the Forbidden City was already operating under his iron-fisted rule, and life became more difficult, but there were not even a few games. Ethan guessed that Chen Zeng also played a role, such as persuading his followers to stay safe and not cause trouble.
Because of this, Chen Zeng must have certain privileges.
It is very easy to know who is a member of the Benefactor Society in the West District. Those people always hang a cross around their necks, but this cross is different from the general Catholic cross. The horizontal bar is combed. longer. There were five or six benefactors in their garbage station, so Ethan started to get close to them on purpose, helping them sort their garbage, and won a lot of goodwill. So when he asked to attend the usual weekly East and West meetings in the sewers, the other party readily agreed and gave him a similar necklace to hang around his neck that day so that the cops wouldn't shoot him. .
So on the day of the rally, Ethan went down the drain. Having worked at the place for a year and a half after all, he is familiar with the common plumbing like his own backyard. He spared a few fork in the road and successfully avoided the benefactors. As a result, he didn't hear one thing that the believers planned to do when they listened to Chen Zeng's sermon.
Ethan lifted the manhole cover and drilled out from near the food store on the East Side. It is remote, but there are still some robot police. Ethan hid all the way, and it took a lot of time to return to his former residence. But after entering, I stood in front of the original bedroom and knocked on the door, only to know that the owner of the bedroom had changed. The strange Beta looked at him inexplicably and closed the door angrily.
When he turned his head, he saw that Tai Feng was standing a few steps away from him, looking at him with a complicated expression.
Ethan stared at him coldly through the lens, like a stranger.
"Ethan..." Tai Feng said, "Why are you here..."
Ethan didn't want to say a word to him, "Where are Samuel and the others."
Tai Feng pursed his lips, as if hesitating whether to say it or not. In the end, he still murmured, "It's probably over a few houses on the south side of Sixteenth Street. I don't know the exact address."
Ethan then walked right past him, and in the moment of passing, he whispered to Tai Feng, "If something happens to Samuel, I won't spare you."
Omega's body shuddered a bit, and finally he didn't explain anything.
Ethan leaned against the wall and swiftly passed through the winding alley between the small buildings like a thief. But when he approached the 16th Street area mentioned by Taifeng, he found an abnormality.
The so-called street was actually not wide, probably only one land-air vehicle could pass through. But at such a time of curfew, the streets were crowded with people holding flashlights.
There are hundreds of those people, who are surrounded by a small building, shouting something angrily, and the robot police next to them is standing silently, as if they are completely blind to those people.
Ethan walked around the back alley, hiding in the corner of the adjacent building and looking over.
Those people are all members of the Benefactor Society.
As soon as the ominous premonition in Ethan's heart rose, he heard a burst of cheers and scolding, accompanied by a lot of spit. When he fixed his eyes on the exit of the small building, he couldn't help gasping for air.
I saw that Samuel and Schneider were tied up with five flowers, and were pushed out by more than a dozen Alpha believers with painted faces. The corners of their faces were bruised, obviously after a struggle. The moment they appeared, the surrounding believers were cursing loudly at them, calling them shameless bastards, spit at them and threw things, as if they wanted to devour them both alive. Those people, especially the expressions of hatred on the faces of some Omegas, seemed not to hate two people who were almost unfamiliar and had nothing to do with them, but hatred for those who had a deep hatred. It is a collective hatred that makes people chill.
Ethan felt his eyes warm, and the situation he was most afraid of happened in front of his eyes.
