Volume 3: The Waking of Insects Chapter 93: Ascension to Heaven (1)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was 5:23 in the morning when Li Yanhua was awakened from her dream by the ringing of the phone.  ¡üSo she instinctively realized that something unusual had happened.

    In today¡¯s era, everyone is very busy, bound by strict regulations like a robot, doing what they should do in a box.  There is a lot less freedom, but also a lot less surprises.

    People rarely encounter "temporary overtime" - if your normal working hours are from 8 a.m. to 23 p.m., how can there be time for you to work overtime?

    So Li Yanhua immediately sat up from the bed and answered the phone.

    What she heard was MJ's extremely serious voice: "Something happened. Come here right away."

    This is the first time MJ has spoken to her in this tone.  MJ is her superior, a French immigrant twenty-six years ago - at that time he was only a child of six or seven years old.

    Two people work in the same department: the Pingyang Department of the Human Resettlement Project Ascension Program Office.

    Although the name "Human Immigration Project" is in front of the unit, which is supposed to ignore all rules, Li Yanhua knew from the first day of reporting that the "Ascension Project Office" and the "Space-Based Engineering Office" are completely different things.

    Space-based projects are highly anticipated, visible and tangible.  Walking on the road after get off work on a clear night, when you look up, you can see the huge silver hairpin embedded in the Milky Way.  No matter how much criticism there is, it is the pride and hope of all mankind.  Most people want to board that spaceship and go to another place one day, instead of

    Ascend to heaven.

    Because things like ascending to heaven are really unbelievable.  Even within the unit, there are always many older people holding cigarettes and saying privately in a dismissive tone: "What is ascending to heaven? Isn't it just becoming a lonely ghost? Even that thing is  What¡¯s the point of living without it?¡±

    Whenever this happens, a few people will laugh together in understanding, and Li Yanhua will blush.

    But if MJ, the office director, was here, they would not dare to say that.  MJ is not the kind of leader who keeps a straight face and is critical all day long, but he manages his subordinates well.  As a French immigrant, he, a French immigrant, had thoroughly studied the officialdom culture and thick black science that had been handed down in China for thousands of years.  No matter how picky you are, you have to say that MJ is a good leader.

    And mj also knows how to be romantic.

    For example, in today's era of shortage of supplies, he can also get chocolates or roses from time to time to give to Li Yanhua privately.

    So after the two had a limited number of intimate gatherings and slept together in the same bed, Li Yanhua felt that she had fallen in love with him.

    Although she knew that MJ had a wife and children.

    Before she could ask what happened, mj hung up the phone.

    Li Yanhua sat on the bed and was stunned for two seconds, not sure if something was wrong with him.  Make mj angry.  She was also a little worried that his wife knew about the two of them.

    With an uneasy mood, she put on her clothes, washed briefly, then took her mobile phone and hurried downstairs.  When I walked to the second floor, I heard a "ding-dong" sound.  The phone screen lit up, conspicuous in the dark corridor.

    Li Yanhua unlocked the lock screen and took a look while walking.

    The push message said that a huge volcano erupted in Antarctica.  She realized that this matter might have something to do with being called out - this was an internal network, and this information was not something civilians could know.

    She breathed a sigh of relief - since it wasn't the kind of thing she was worried about, it wasn't a big deal.

    Nowadays, humans want to leave the earth, and the eruption of a large volcano is not a big deal.  But Antarctica¡­

    Li Yanhua and many ordinary people only have an impression of Antarctica as a continent covered with ice and snow.  Are there penguins or polar bears up there?

    Oh, polar bears are in the North Pole.

    But after all, we are in the southern hemisphere, not in the empire.

    It¡¯s far away.

    Li Yanhua went out.  I found that the streets were not as deserted as before.  There were actually pedestrians.  Although there are only two or three, it can be considered "lively" at this time.  In the dim light, those people were walking in a hurry, and they seemed to have been woken up at the same time as her.

    Five minutes later she got on the bus.  This is a shabby bus that sways left and right when driving.  Li Yanhua estimated that this car had been scrapped originally, and now it was pulled out.

    Because there are too many people to carry.  Twenty years ago, the number of private cars in Binh Duong City was 13 million units.  Twenty years later, even after the catastrophe, the population dropped sharply to less than one-tenth of its former size.  But now the number of private cars in Binh Duong is

    zero.

    It¡¯s all for the immigration project.  NoAllows a waste of resources.

    Fortunately, there were not many people going out at this time, so Li Yanhua found a seat.  She wanted to close her eyes and take a nap.  But soon.  The conversation between the two people behind her attracted her attention.

    Those two people should also be staff within the system.  They were discussing the eruption of a volcano.

    Through the few words she heard, Li Yanhua realized things seemed not as simple as she thought.

    Are you kidding me, a volcano the size of a quarter of the Antarctic continent?  !

    She listened for a while, then finally turned around and asked, "What will happen?"

    The two men behind him were slightly surprised, and then realized that this was a young and beautiful girl.  Smooth skin and well-dressed.  Looks well nourished.  This means that she is not the kind of "coolie" who stands on a factory assembly line for hours.

    Li Yanhua squeezed out a smile from the corner of her mouth and explained: "I'm at the immigration office. I was also called up."

    The man behind him was stunned for a moment, and then asked with great interest: "Tianji Office or Ascension Office?"

    Li Yanhua said: "Ascension to heaven."

    Then she expected the two men to give her the look she was used to seeing when someone asked her where she worked.  She will say Immigration Office.  Then people will have a look of envy and surprise on their faces, and then ask the same question.

    Once you find out it¡¯s the latter.  Either he said, "Oh, that's not bad," sincerely, or he changed the subject.

    Because the ascension technology was not even invented by the empire itself - it is said that it was created by species and dinosaurs.  Neither of them is "my tribe", so who knows if their hearts must be different.  Therefore, compared with the "Tianji Office", the "Shengtian Office" is really a Qingshui Yamen - they don't even know the progress and core technology of the Shengtian Project.

    But Li Yanhua discovered that the two people this time were different from those before.  The two men looked at each other and shook their heads: "Girl, you are really lucky."

    It doesn¡¯t look like a joke.

    Li Yanhua blinked in confusion.

    The man who spoke to her smiled: "My name is Wan Shanhong. We work in the Department of Resources."

    He looked around and lowered his voice: "You are going to get angry."

    Li Yanhua still doesn¡¯t understand something.  Question: "how did you say it?"

    "This is a big eruption. In the geological history known to mankind, there has never been a volcanic eruption of this level." Wan Shanhong whispered, "We estimate that it won't last long. At most, it will only be half a month, and at most one  months, the ecological environment will deteriorate. This earth will no longer be suitable for human habitation."

    Li Yanhua was stunned for a few seconds before subconsciously letting out a sigh.

    She never thought it would be so serious.

    "The space-based project has not yet been completed. In the past, others were not optimistic about you because they all thought about space immigration. At this time, where will so many people move to?" Wan Shanhong shook his head, "Whether they like it or not, they all have to ascend to heaven.  . It¡¯s just that I didn¡¯t want to ascend to heaven before, but nowif I want to ascend to heaven, I have to queue up. Girl, tell me. Did you have any plans before? If it really starts, how many people can you pick up in a day?"

    The sudden news made Li Yanhua¡¯s thinking a little confusing.  She looked at Wan Shanhong blankly for a while, then said: "II don't know"

    Wan Shanhong smiled.  He just thought that the girl suddenly realized the importance of the work she was doing and became reserved.  He said: "Haha, we don't care about this."

    He pointed at himself and the slightly silent man next to him: "We should go to heaven. There were rumors before, and we both happen to be engaged in technology - even if the space base station is not completed, there will still be one or two million people."  It¡¯s over. We¡¯ll need geologists when we get to Mars. I¡¯m just asking, nothing else.¡±

    Li Yanhua looked at his expression.  That expression was filled with a subtle, confident, and carefree sense of superiority.

    She knew that the other person's expression was not directed at her.  But even so.  It made her feel depressed.

    Because she suddenly realized something What should she do?

    She used to work in the Shengtian Office, and she thought it was okay - at least she didn't have to be so tired, it looked respectable, and she always knew more inside information.

    But now, after hearing this man's words, she suddenly realized that she actually had nothing.

    No parents, no husband, no family.  There is only one "love" that she doesn't know is reliable or not?

    And she doesn¡¯t even know whether she wants to immigrate or ascend to heaven.

    In the past, I originally planned to follow MJ.  If mj wantsAs a citizen, she also immigrated.  At that time, there were still many immigration quotas, and it was said that healthy insiders like them could probably leave.

    But after listening to Wan Shanhong¡¯s words.  Li Yanhua realized that immigration quotas should be more popular nowadays.  Wan Shanhong was so popular that he didn't think he could take that path at all - "Girl, you are so lucky" - he was just better off than those who had to queue up to ascend to heaven!

    Li Yanhua forced a smile and turned his head.  After that, she had no intention of listening to what the two men behind her had to say.

    Twenty minutes later, Li Yanhua arrived at the office.

    She was the last one to arrive.

    Five or six colleagues surrounded MJ, listening to him.  When he saw her walking in, MJ waved to her: "Xiao Li, come and listen too."

    Usually, MJ calls her Xiao Li in front of others.  But today it sounded harsh to Li Yanhua.

    But she walked over calmly and saw MJ holding a cup of coffee and said: "Everyone must have seen the push message. A volcanic eruption in Antarctica is a serious geological disaster. So starting from today, the global Ascension Project Office will enter an emergency  State, organize evacuation.¡±

    "A document came from above early this morning. We are required to count exactly how many people in Binh Duong City plan to ascend to heaven within two days. Then we will select some of these people with suitable conditions and start the operation."

    "I will assign tasks now - everyone in our office must go down to the grassroots level. Go to the offices in each district to do supervision work. At this time, people are panicked, and there may be trouble. What I ask you to do is to maintain stability and prevent incidents.  ¡­¡±

    At this point, someone interrupted: "Director, what should we do? If the ascension plan has to be advanced, does the immigration project have to be advanced even more? What if someone wants to immigrate?"

    MJ looked at the speaker and took a sip of coffee: "Do you want to immigrate?"

    The speaker hesitated for a moment.  He said with a smile: "I'm just asking. I plan to find someone to do some activities and see if I can leave early."

    "Don't think about that." MJ put down the cup and sighed, "Originally, it was said that most of us could go to heaven. But at that time, we planned to complete the space base station and be able to run back and forth several times to pick up everyone who wanted to leave.  But until now. Let me tell you the truth - it says that at most one or two million can be picked up, one way."

    After he finished speaking, people fell silent.

    If you had heard about this kind of thing more than ten years ago - that only one or two million people out of hundreds of millions could leave, people would have been shocked and outraged, and immediately rushed to the streets to protest.

    However, he first experienced the fear brought by species, then experienced the greater fear brought by ancient gods, and finally was ruled by iron-fisted policies for ten years

    They are no longer the people of the golden age.

    MJ also stayed with them in silence for a while, sighed, clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, please keep your spirits up. Look around. Now ascending to heaven is the choice of most people. You should all know that there are only six prototypes in Pingyang.  The number of people who can be transformed is limited. Even if they ascend to heaven, it may not be the turn for many people. But I promise you, no matter what I say to the higher-ups, no one in our house will be left behind."

    ?Obviously this does not satisfy everyone.  But after all, it still makes people feel a little confident.

    It is better to die than live.

    MJ talked for a while and announced that the meeting was adjourned.  He assigned tasks to everyone, including Li Yanhua.

    Then MJ walked to his desk and sat down, waving to Li Yanhua: "Xiao Li, you are leaving later. Go to the information department to get me something."

    Such a delay.  Everyone else packed up their things and went out in twos and threes.

    MJ stood up, strode to the door, closed it, turned around and changed his expression.

    "Don't go with the fireworks. Things are not going well." MJ stood in front of the door and shook his head.  He looked a little anxious.  He grabbed Li Yanhua's shoulders and said, "It's not as optimistic as I said. The space base station can pick up up to seven or eight million people. The rest, probably only ten or twenty million, can catch up with the first wave to ascend to the sky."

    He looked into Li Yanhua¡¯s eyes: ¡°So now the quota for the first wave of ascension is not easy to deal with!¡±

    Li Yanhua had already been mentally prepared.  But when MJ said this, although he still looked anxious, Li Yanhua felt better.

    ¡°At least this man didn¡¯t want to leave her behind at this time.  The feeling of helplessness that had briefly existed in my heart disappeared instantly.  Such emotions can even calm her down.  He raised his face and asked MJ calmly: "What about you?"

    MJ was slightly surprised by her reaction.  But he quickly sighed: "Me? It's impossible for me to be among those seven or eight million people. I can only ascend to heaven. But if you want to immigrate I will try my best to give you a try."?There is a friend who is¡ª¡ª¡±

    Li Yanhua threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly. She pressed her cheek against his chest and heard his heartbeat.

    She suddenly felt a little happy.

    ¡°I¡¯ll go with you,¡± she said passionately, ¡°I¡¯ll go wherever you go.¡±

    MJ¡¯s body stiffened and he slowly held Li Yanhua in his arms.  After a while, he said in a seductive voice: "Fireworks, I still have a wife and I can't give you anything -"

    "I don't care." Li Yanhua interrupted him for the second time.

    MJ tightened his arms a little more.  He whispered: "Okay. I will arrange it for you as soon as possible and get your name on it first. In fact, the first wavemay start this afternoon."

    Li Yanhua raised his head in surprise: "So fast? How could it be so fast?"

    MJ looked down at her: "Many people now don't know how serious this volcanic eruption is. It is said that there may be more in the future. Once people realize the seriousness, they may attack the Ascension Office, and some may even want to snatch the equipment.  . When chaos breaks out at that time, maybe we won¡¯t be able to leave.¡±

    "What I want them to go out to count now is actually the second batch. It will have to wait until four days later. It's hard to say what the situation will be like by then."

    "What about you?" Li Yanhua asked.

    "I can't leave now." MJ said, "If I run away now, I will be shot. Maybe I am in the second or third batch. I can survive until then. But it doesn't matter to you. I will do it  I have arranged for you to leave first. I have a quota here. Although I don¡¯t know what kind of social structure it will be after ascending to heaven, there must be someone to maintain order - you use this quota to leave, and it is justifiable."

    Li Yanhua bit her lips, feeling that the emotion in her chest was about to force her tears out.  She hugged MJ tightly, not knowing what to say.

    "Come on. Don't let others see it, follow me." MJ whispered, "You go first, I will definitely find you."

    ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù

    Li Yanhua saw for the first time the ascension equipment that was once highly confidential.

    She originally thought this thing would look full of technology, but when she saw it in person, she was a little disappointed.

    It looks bulky, even a little rough, like a huge old-fashioned boiler.  Densely packed pipes protruded from the bottom of the huge white machine and were connected to devices in the room that looked like motorcycle helmets.

    More than a hundred helmets were placed on the seats, and Li Yanhua was sure that the seats were exactly the same as the chairs used to receive guests in their office.  That is by no means high-tech.

    "So you seehow urgent it is." MJ said to Li Yanhua.

    The room is almost full.  People with different looks were sitting on chairs, holding helmets in their hands.  Most people were silent. Occasionally, a family of three would be together, and they would seize the last moment to hug, pull, and talk, but they also deliberately lowered their voices.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
