Today, Masato Shimizu made a meal for two according to her past habit, but in the end she was left to eat quietly by herself and then clear away the dishes.

Don't know what happened.

Maybe it's Masato himself, or maybe it's Natsume's fault.

In short, Natsume did not stay with Masato Shimizu. He returned to the room prepared for him by the comprehensive management department of Xiongan No. 1 Shelter, and rarely came to eat with Masato.

After dinner, Masato originally wanted to go upstairs and read a book to pass the time.

As a result, after turning two pages, Masato lost interest. She came down from upstairs and dialed her brother's number.

The Qingshui family, which is one of the four major family businesses along with Su's Enterprises, Huasheng Fengmao and Cairns Energy, has a lot of money and has made a lot of efforts in good neighborly relations between China and the Japanese government in New Tokyo. Take this top-spec Xiongan 1

For example, if the Shimizu family had not taken over the responsibility for the Shelter No. 1, it would have been very difficult to complete the construction according to the planned planning standards before the disaster occurred.

Of course, the Qingshui family also left a little selfishness, that is, they prepared a villa-level private residence for Qingshui Masato at the bottom of the Xiongan No. 1 shelter. This kind of privilege should not have appeared originally, but when he was about to move in

When the people in Xiongan No. 1 Shelter learned that this privilege was reserved by the Qingshui family for the second daughter of their own family, no one would be ignorant to stand up and speak out against peace equality, because that would be too stupid.

.

But when disaster strikes, Masato Qingmizu feels unprecedented loneliness after moving into the villa.

In the past, when he was in Wangye Ecological Zone, Masato was surrounded by the energetic Momosawa Hanako, the friendly Natsume, the crooked aunt like Liang Qiuru, and the handsome uncle like Yan Haoming, as well as that person whom he had never met before.

, but they have already expressed their sincere feelings to each other, Masato feels that he is loved by the whole world.

But what now?

Hanako followed Natsume back to the Wangye Ecological Zone and never came back. She chose to stay with her mother, Ms. Liang Qiuru, and this farewell might be a farewell forever.

As for uncle Yan Haoming, Hanako still doesn’t know whether he is alive or dead...

He left her forever before the disaster struck...

Now even Natsume, who he could rely on and be his companion, is becoming increasingly alienated from him, and Masato feels as if he has been abandoned by everyone.

In order to escape such family tradition, Masato Shimizu chose to sever ties with his father.

Although this sounds very childish, the old patriarch who is Masato Shimizu's father has not responded to Masato Shimizu at all. All aspects of her life are still taken care of by the Shimizu family, but in Masato Shimizu's heart, she has no relationship with her family.

Already.

The things she was once extremely afraid of and didn't dare to face were no longer there, but when new problems appeared, Masato still felt afraid.

The phone never went through, which made Yaren very disappointed.

Joe Shimizu's work has become increasingly busy recently... It is said that the reason is because the previous serial murder case is very similar to the case in Tokyo. In addition, someone mentioned the sensitive name of Takahashi Yinji... Shimizu

The family was suddenly thrust into the spotlight.

Although logically speaking, neither the First Central Axis nor the "Beacon Council" should have time to take into account these details.

But the reality is...the managers who are leading mankind to fight against disasters at this moment are beginning to worry that all their plans have been preset with traps. If they cannot solve their worries, how will they face future challenges?

Putting down the phone, Masato returned to the living room. She had been sleeping in the living room recently, and the holographic projection played various classic movies 24 hours a day.

What is being screened at this time is a classic urban fantasy movie "Infinite Identity".

This great film, born in the late period of the blackout era, is regarded as a symbol of the renaissance of human culture. There were many films shot by traditional means during the same period, but this one indeed had the greatest impact.

The movie mainly tells the story of a boy who accidentally acquires super powers and experiences various aspects of life in the city.

At first glance, it sounds boring, but if you actually watch this movie, you will feel that the director is really a genius.

The boy as the protagonist has a superpower called "Infinite Identity".

This ability will only be passively activated when he dies, and then he will continue to live in the city as the person who killed him. Of course, if he dies in an accident, there is no "murderer" who objectively caused his death.

, then he will also change his identity, but he will become a random person.

This idea still sounds very interesting.

In terms of film shooting and final expression, this somewhat interesting feeling was further transformed into impressive artistic tension.

Especially at the end of the movie, the boy who became an old man decided not to change his identity. Although his current identity was "much worse" than any identity he had experienced before, he still chose to stop for no other reason.

Because this old man is one of the few people in this era who is still cultivating hope through his own efforts.

The hope here is the children.

A child abandoned by those ignorant people in the city, or...a future abandoned by the entire society.

Unknowingly, Masato Shimizu, who had watched the movie again, felt something stirring in her ears. When the ending song of the movie ended, she was surprised to realize that it was a phone ringing.

I hurriedly got up to answer the phone, but it turned out that the person on the other end of the phone was not Shimizu Rang.

"Hello?"

"Hello? Are you the second lady?"

"Um... who are you?"

"I am……"

…

"Brother Eng, Brother Eng, are you there?" Natsume knocked on the door, but there was no sound from the door.

Taking a step back, Natsume touched his chin and muttered to himself: "It's strange, Enge must be in the room playing games at this time, why aren't you here today?"

Li Dan was stunned: "Playing games? What games are you playing?"

"Oh, it's just those old antique electric ones. I don't know where I got them recently. After repairing them, I started to retreat." Natsume said and walked to the door of another room, but before he could knock on the door, the door opened.

Already.

Two men came out of the room, both shirtless.

Li Dan's face turned red and he turned his head hastily.

"Hey, Brother Zhong and Sister-in-law Zhong, have you seen Brother Eng?"

Li Dan was stunned for a moment and his eyes widened: 'Brother Zhongzhong and Sister-in-law Zhong? Aren't those two men?'

Looking back, I saw a slightly thin man leaning on the chest of the strong man and saying coyly: "Natsume, please don't talk nonsense, I haven't been proposed to yet."

That's what he said, but with this man's delicate voice and his smiling eyes, it was hard to tell that he was angry.

Natsume didn't care either. He laughed and said, "I finished this early. Hey, Brother Zhong, have you seen Brother Eng?"

The man known as Brother Zhong first gave the prodigal in his arms a firm grip on his butt, making him reluctant and then said: "Brother Eng was here just now, but I heard it in the room.

Someone called him, it seems there is a problem with the water circulation system."

Natsume was shocked when he heard this: "Ah?! Then I have to go and have a look!"

After saying that, he turned to Li Dan and said: "Um...Li Dan, how about you come back another day? I may have something urgent here, so I guess I won't be able to introduce Brother Eng to you today."

Unexpectedly, Li Dan had no intention of leaving. She said solemnly: "I know something about the water circulation system. I will go with you. Maybe I can help."

Natsume was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, let's go."

After saying that, the two of them ran out of the living area, leaving the "young couple" there to show off their affection.

On the way, Li Dan asked: "Hey, Natsume, that loyal brother and loyal sister-in-law are...what's going on?"

Natsume didn't look back and just said: "It's just homosexuality. There is nothing abnormal about it."

Li Dan frowned and said, "Are there many situations like them in shelters?"

Natsume probably understood what Li Dan meant. After thinking for a while, he said: "You have to go to the Statistics Department for specific data. I can only give you a rough idea based on my personal observation."

"Um."

"Not much." Natsume said.

Li Dan nodded, then felt a little relieved, and then explained with a slight embarrassment: "I actually have another mission when I come to Xiongan, which is to observe and record, so... occupational diseases."

"Well, that's understandable."

When we arrived at the work confluence area, a team of several hundred people gathered in the square that should have been empty originally. They were all wearing life jackets and looked like they were going to flood prevention and relief work.

Xia Mu saw that it was Zhang Zi'en who was directing these people, so he rushed over and asked: "Brother En, what happened?"

Zhang Zien looked back at Natsume and Li Dan behind him and said: "The pressure pump used for water recirculation was damaged by that bastard. Now only one of the three pressure pumps can still work normally. The sewage will flow back and soon it will be gone."

The sedimentation tank is about to overflow. If we don't arrange for someone to build the dam in advance, the drinking water for the millions of residents in our refuge will not be guaranteed!"

Natsume was shocked when he heard this, and then he realized the seriousness of the problem.

Li Dan fell into deep thought after listening to Zhang Zien's description. She frowned and said to herself: "If the water circulation system is planned and built according to the primary standards of the shelter, two to four backup pressure pumps are usually reserved, and the sedimentation tank is also

A drainage system will be reserved to prevent sudden siltation and waterlogging. How come the sedimentation tank overflows because the two pressure pumps are broken? Isn't this too abnormal?"

Zhang Zi'en heard this and looked at Xia Mu and said, "Who is this?"

Natsume immediately introduced: "Oh, Brother Eng, this is my college classmate, her name is Li Dan, and she now works for the First Central Axis."

Zhang Zien did not show too much surprise after hearing Li Dan's true identity. He nodded and said: "Sister, what you just said makes sense. Now I also suspect that the problem is not as simple as what is reported below, so I will

A flood prevention team has been organized in advance to prepare for emergencies."

Li Dan smiled and said: "Brother Eng is overly praised, so I just said casually that you are the commander-in-chief and I am just a passerby. You don't care about me too much."
