Epoch of Twilight

The office director, Chen Xinjie, is inconspicuous in the establishment sequence of the Sword department. Whether it is the seemingly strong Lin Feiyan or Luo Yuan who doesn't care about everything, they are all superior. Even ordinary Sword members can order her to do things.

This beautiful young woman usually seems to be a housekeeper, serving every member of the sword department. But anyone with a little bit of political savvy will know that this ordinary person with the highest position in the Sword Department of Hope City is in charge of all the logistics work, and at the same time, he is also a semi-open eyeliner in the Sword Department.

Report the state of mind of Sword members, personal political leanings, and collect all kinds of useful information.

Of course, she is very measured in doing things, and her personality is as soft as water, and she is not offensive.

"Vice-captain, you are really a rare visitor. Why do you want to come to my place today?" Chen Xinjie opened the door and said with a soft smile.

She has a pair of crescent eyes, and she has a charming smile, but Luo Yuan is not interested in admiring her at this moment. Seeing her turning around slowly, as if she was about to make tea, he quickly stopped her and said, "Don't bother me, I came here to tell you something important."

Chen Xinjie was stunned for a moment, seeing that Luo Yuan's face was serious, obviously it was not a trivial matter, she restrained her smile a little, walked over to lock the door, and said, "Vice Captain Luo sit down first, what's the matter?"

At that moment, Luo Yuan told the story of the discovery of the intelligent robot of extraterrestrial civilization the night before, including the time and place, without any details.

Different status means different weight of words. If an ordinary person said that, even if Chen Xinjie didn't treat it as a joke, it wouldn't attract much attention. At least he would need to wait for more evidence.

But Luo Yuan is a super evolutionary, the deputy captain of the sword department, usually behaves normally, and has no tendency to be mentally ill. His words already carry considerable weight, and he will not and cannot joke about this kind of thing.

"Vice Captain, is what you said true? Can't this be a joke?" Chen Xinjie opened her mouth, her smile was already a bit forced.

Luo Yuan knew that the other party didn't really doubt him, but he just couldn't believe it. Anyone who heard the news would be skeptical. Facing her slightly absent-minded gaze, Luo Yuan nodded solemnly.

Chen Xinjie exhaled, and said with a heavy heart: "Vice Captain, you may not be able to go out today. This matter is too important, and you may be going to Xinjing soon."

Luo Yuan nodded, he was already prepared for this.

Immediately, in front of Luo Yuan, Chen Xinjie picked up the phone, hesitated, and started to make a call. After a few minutes, she hung up the phone, her forehead was covered with thin beads of sweat, as if she had collapsed.

She regained her composure and called the train station to book a ticket.

"We'll take the next train and leave right away."

…………

Next, the two hurried to the train station.

Compared with the underground railway station in Motu City, the underground railway station in Hope City is several times larger, especially the nearby freight station, which is almost the size of several football fields, and the containers inside are piled up like mountains.

Now the sea transportation has stopped, and the road transportation is limited to short distances. Most of the goods come and go rely on the relatively safe underground railway. As one of the main cities in the reconstruction area, the daily throughput here is astronomical.

However, compared to the busy freight traffic, the passenger traffic is extremely sluggish. There are only 20 to 30 people in the huge waiting hall, and judging by their clothes, it is obvious that most of them are business contacts. Not as good as a station.

The reason why it was built so large was not only to consider the possible improvement of the situation in the future, but also to transport troops.

Luo Yuan looked at it for a while, feeling a little pessimistic in his heart. Such a good situation is hard-won, and I don't know how long it can last.

...

It didn't take long for the train to arrive at the station. The two entered the carriage and sat down, silent, each thinking about their own thoughts.

Luo Yuan leaned on the armchair, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

What happened in the past few days really made him exhausted physically and mentally. Although his injuries have fully recovered, his heart is full of worries. What he saw that day has become an unbearable burden. Civilization puts too much pressure on him, no matter how good his mentality is, in this case, it is impossible to be heartless. This is not self-comforting, pretending not to be there, it can be resolved.

Today, I thoroughly explained the burden that has been hidden deep in my heart, and I can't help but feel a sense of relief in my heart. The sky is falling, and there is a tall man carrying it. Although, this is also self-consolation, even if the reconstruction area knows, it will not help. As an extraterrestrial civilization capable of interstellar voyages, the level of technological development is far superior to that of humans, and it is completely crushing the reconstruction area. With a little push, the redevelopment area will evaporate.

At this moment, Luo Yuan suddenly felt his palm go soft, and found that Chen Xinjie was holding her tightly, her body trembling slightly.

Luo Yuan watched and sighed, and held her palm firmly with his backhand. Even he was so unbearable in the face of this matter. As an ordinary person with weak strength, Chen Xinjie was obviously under more pressure. He didn't even tell Huang Jiahui and others, as if he didn't want them to bear such a crushing pressure .

Chen Xinjie didn't speak, she lowered her head and remained silent all the way.

The train drove for two hours and gradually approached the station. The two followed the crowd and filed out. As soon as they walked out of the train station, a strong pungent smell rushed over. Luo Yuan frowned slightly and looked outside. glance.

The Xinjing in front of me is shocking.

On both sides are towering and steep cliffs with a height of three to four hundred meters. The entire Xinjing City is located between the mountain gorge. The cliffs have been wrapped in cement and look gray. Natural formation.

Except for the narrow passage between the two mountain gorges in the east and west, there is no exit in the entire Xinjing City.

No wonder the higher authorities gave up on Hope City and placed the capital of a country here instead. The conditions here are really good. With the cliffs on both sides, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Looking at the shocking scene in front of him, even the haze that had been in Luo Yuan's heart for the past few days could not help dissipating.

But also because of the terrain, the air circulation here is not smooth, and the air pollution level, compared with here, Hope City can even be called fresh air.

There was a faint mist all around, and the sky above the head could hardly be seen.

There are a large number of industrial bases here, releasing huge amounts of pollution every moment, and the ubiquitous thick and pungent poisonous gas. If you have a pre-apocalyptic physique, you may not be able to live here for a year.

There was already a car waiting outside.

The car is a pre-apocalyptic brand. Since the apocalypse, this kind of family car is no longer produced. Instead, it is replaced by various heavy trucks and armored vehicles. Except for some government vehicles, it is difficult to see them on the street today.

Seeing the two people coming out, a big man in military uniform came out of the driver's cab, and opened the rear door swiftly: "General Luo, Director Chen, the No. 2 chief is already waiting, please get in the car."
