Reestablishment of Order

The matter of whether Tom stole the crystal from the metal forging factory can be put aside for now, but at least the order to return the level 5 red crystal that Tom brought back to him was done by Shen Jiayi

Although there is a receipt signed by Tom in the document, upon closer inspection, the forged signature will definitely be exposed. Tom doesn't even have a record of entering and exiting the security department, so it's impossible to claim his large crystal.

Han Haodong fell into the trap and is now under direct control on site. As for the matter regarding the arrest of Tom by Inner Security Department, since Song Ren has implicated Zhang Guxing, the relevant evidence will definitely be followed up and fabricated. It can be said that Tom's charges are not easily cleared.

However, Shen Jiayi activated her own abilities at this time, greatly improving the efficiency of her brain in analyzing things. Despite the lack of key intelligence and evidence, she could still quickly infer the suspicious points behind Tom's case.

After thinking for a moment, she said coldly, "The wanted list for Tom and Ouyang Haotian has been temporarily revoked. Bai Tingting, you are responsible for following up on this case and then organizing all the evidence and handing it over to me."

The Liu Zhen from the internal security department said unwillingly, "But the general manager... without new evidence, their suspicions cannot be cleared, they cannot..."

"The special regulation in Article 3 of Section 9 of the Crime Disposal and Response Act of Haiwei Mini Industrial Shelter stipulates that in order to ensure the safety and stability of the shelter, when the shelter is threatened by crisis, the A-level managers of Haiwei Mini Industry have the right to temporarily recruit criminals and suspect, provided that the offender is helpful to the safety and stability of the shelter."

Liu Zhen couldn't remember so many bills, and his eyes were blank. "There... there's this one..."

"Of course there is." Bai Tingting said with a hint of anger, "The general manager can remember all the regulations and rules of the entire Haiwei Mini Industry."

Shen Jiayi continued, "A mutated Yuanbao chicken is wreaking havoc in my industrial area, threatening everyone's safety. As a 3A level manager, I have the right to temporarily recruit Tom, Ouyang Haotian, and his friends to serve me. I will personally examine the charges against Tom by your internal security department and make a judgment. If the evidence is conclusive, I will withdraw the recruitment order and return it to you for disposal. Of course, I can also exercise the General Manager's authority."

Some have the power of amnesty, pardoning him from all charges

As the highest leader of the shelter, Shen Jiayi's willingness to say such things in person is already very legal and compliant. In other words, Song Ren would basically say, "What I say is a law, execute it immediately.".

Not to mention that some people still have the amnesty power of national leaders, even if you plant it perfectly, what will happen?

So Liu Zhen had to retreat with the people from the internal security department, and before leaving, he gave Tom a resentful glance.

Bai Tingting walked up to Tom and explained, "Tom, if you are innocent, please rest assured that the general manager will definitely clear your name."

"Cut..." Ouyang Haotian turned his head to express doubt, but Tom advised him twice, so he had to lie back on the stretcher and be carried away.

Shen Jiayi withdrew her powers, nodded to Tom, and then walked towards the motionless Yuanbao chicken.

"Give me an explanation that you disobeyed my orders without leaving a living word."

Tom followed behind Shen Jiayi and also came to the mutated chicken. He felt that her speech was a bit more popular than before, and immediately explained, "The mutated creature that can control hair belongs to the second level mutation. It has just eaten people, and if we just make it dizzy, we cannot guarantee what kind of mutation it will produce when it wakes up from sleep. I guess your shelter has not had the experience of capturing and studying this second level mutated creature. If the facilities that restrict living beings do not meet the standards, once it is freed, it will cause huge harm to the laboratory and researchers."

Shen Jiayi nodded and said, "I didn't consider it carefully. Once it mutates again, it is very likely to become stronger, even stronger than before when we became smaller, which would pose a greater threat to the shelter." She turned around and said, "Tom, I value your understanding and response to the end of the world. This battle shows even more that you have rich experience in dealing with mutated creatures on the spot. You refused before, but now I want to mention it again, join us and fight together for the safety and development of the shelter."

Tom felt a great sense of relief upon hearing these words, and it seemed that Shen Jiayi had indeed been deceived. "I have applied, but whether it is the special ability team or the security department, they have all rejected my application."

Shen Jiayi's face changed and she let out a long sigh, "Song Ren, he has another motive for framing you. Bai Tingting's response to me was that you have switched to PTSD, which is post-traumatic stress disorder, so she refused my request to join and is no longer willing to participate in the battle. I am glad that you are still so brave and clever when facing this mutated Yuan Baoji."

Tom smiled, and then he thought of Shen Jiayi's situation just now. Curiously, he asked, "May I ask what type of ability is your?"

Shen Jiayi's expression flashed with a hint of fatigue, but she quickly restrained. "It's nothing, but after activation, her thinking becomes more agile and her memory improves. She can recall things she has experienced, seen, and heard before, just like..."

"Computer?"

Shen Jiayi nodded and said, "It looks quite like a computer. Do you think I'm not human anymore, like a cold robot?"

Tom sighed and said, "It's the end of the world. To survive and lead others to live together, sometimes we have to let go of personal emotional interference when thinking about problems. In order to preserve the collective, sometimes we may have to sacrifice ourselves. Fortunately, I don't have to take such a step through these things. On the contrary, since the first time I met you, I think you are quite human."

"Thank you, and... how do you know that covering its eyes can make it dizzy?"

Tom chuckled and said, "When I wandered to the countryside before, I saw two children playing. One of them grabbed a chicken, bent its head under its wings, and then grabbed it and turned it around a few times before gently putting it down. The chicken would stop moving. Just now, I decided to give it a try, but I didn't know that the chicken had mutated and actually worked."

Shen Jiayi nodded in agreement with this method.

As the personnel from the security department gathered, Bai Tingting instructed them to isolate all the scenes of the battle here, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach. Then the R&D department was notified to send a research team as soon as possible to conduct on-site analysis and treatment of this mutated chicken.

And Shen Jiayi naturally led Tom to several factories where she was implicated to inspect the property damage of the inspectors. On the one hand, she wanted to hear Tom's opinion, and on the other hand, she also made Tom responsible for his safety.

Tom has always felt that Shen Jiayi is unlikely to be a participant or indulgent in framing these things. Now that she has shown sincerity, she naturally wants to blend in as much as possible. Because he is no longer alone, Ouyang Haotian, Liu Lian, Cheng Fuhua and others have been implicated because of his relationship. Even if he wants to leave, he must fight for their rightful status and interests, so that they can establish themselves in the shelter.

A total of three factories were damaged to varying degrees by mutated chickens, and the specific number of casualties is still being counted, but the pacification work has been carried out in an orderly manner.

In the end, they returned to the starting point of this disaster: Lianhua Meat Processing Plant.

In order to ensure the nutritional structure of the shelter personnel, in addition to vegetable plantations, there are also natural places for raising meat and poultry.

The breeding ground is basically built outside the shelter, adopting a feeding and slaughtering assembly line operation, and then transporting the meat into the shelter.

In order to ensure the supply of fresh meat, the shelter will also transport live chickens and ducks into the shelter when they are just hatched, and the meat processing plant will be responsible for feeding them. They will be slaughtered and distributed on the same day according to special needs.

This type of captive breeding has a small quantity and strict management procedures. After learning that organisms can mutate when they eat humans, the management of the shelter has particularly strengthened the security measures for captive poultry in meat processing plants, and regularly held safety training exercises to ensure that everything is safe.

But everyone didn't expect that a strictly monitored Yuanbao chicken had mutated, and it was still a secondary mutation.

It was precisely because of the secondary mutation that the power of this Yuan Baoji completely exceeded the factory's expectations, which led to its destruction and escape of the iron cage.

Of course, what everyone didn't expect was that it would relentlessly pursue Shen Jiayi, the awakened one, and none of the five awakened ones on the scene could stop it.

When they were inspecting the meat processing plant, the R&D department also reported that a total of three crystals were found in the body of this Yuanbao chicken, of which the fifth level crystal was indeed red, a powerful crystal.

The second level mutated organisms that Tom has encountered are not good at reinforcement, but even so, they are very difficult to deal with. At that time, he was thinking how strong it would be if he encountered a fifth level red crystal mutated organism.

Today, it seems that this second level mutated chicken, which seems to have mutated for not long, is already very strong. If Tom didn't kill it, but instead followed Shen Jiayi's request to only capture it, then once it becomes strong during transportation, it won't be so easy to deal with it next time.

Shen Jiayi immediately understood this after being awakened by him, and now she was not surprised to hear it.

The specific reasons for the mutation still need to be gradually screened, monitored, and recorded daily, as well as the testimony of workers. These are all handled by specialized personnel from the Security Department of the Special Investigation Department. Shen Jiayi only came here to inquire about some situations on site and arrange for the implementation of some rescue measures.

This is the place with the highest number of casualties, in addition to those eaten by mutated chickens, there are also clerks in the office building who were unable to evacuate due to the fire.

After handling this, Shen Jiayi set off and returned. Before leaving, she specially hired Tom as the special advisor for the psychic office, which is the organization that manages the psychic team and has the right to hold and use crystals in the shelter, which is like a lost dog before. Compared to his situation of escaping through the ventilation vent, there was a 180 degree turn.

In addition to having his own dormitory in Courtyard 8, Tom also received an electric four-wheel bike allocated for him to run errands.

The ant colony became lively again, and after a simple examination and treatment, Ouyang Haotian returned to the colony. Liu Lian, Zhao Yingying, Cheng Fuhua, Gao Disheng, and Fan Jie returned happily.

Shen Jiayi gave Tom a day off and then went to the Awakened Camp in the Eighth Courtyard. The temporary name of the unit was called the "Mighty Office" to report.

On the afternoon of Tom's day off, all the things that happened to the ant colony members in the past few days were summarized in front of Shen Jiayi's desk, along with Zhang Guxing, the former deputy head of the internal security department who was suspended from work.

Shen Jiayi gathered her hands in front of the table and said in a magnetic voice, "Officer Zhang, tell me your evaluation of Tom."

"Having a sense of responsibility and loyalty. When he learned that I had been suspended from duty and the evidence they had collected was nowhere to go, he attempted to hunt down Song Ren and others alone, hoping to clear the threat for his friends. Although this was a violation of order, I must admit that violence is often the most accessible shortcut when justice is out of reach, even if it brings destruction."

"I heard that Tom has also been calling you Officer Zhang, which actually represents the desire of many people for the return of national order." Shen Jiayi blinked, "There are still many people who do not feel a sense of belonging and security to my Haiwei Mini Industry. So Officer Zhang, help me establish the order and authority of Haiwei Mini Industry, and make them proud to be a part of this place, can you?"

"Thank you for informing me of the darkness behind the micro disaster. Since the national order of the entire Earth has been disrupted, we can only establish order ourselves to ensure that the survivors live with dignity..." Zhang Guxing said, tidying up his collar and standing up to salute Shen Jiayi, "Zhang Guxing, I report to you!"
