Broadcast the corpse

“Come here, Vegel. Slower than me.” A voice from the dark shadow reflection of a large man Stand facing the window. It was quiet in the abandoned house. They expected this to be a blind spot.

“Then why are you turning off the lights?... Ma Tong. Didn't we start today?” Vegel asked. She thought she was in a room too dark to breathe easily.

two weeks ago The people of Lifetopia live on the path of truth in peace. Lifetopia was founded by Lieutenant General Nadir more than three hundred years ago. Lieutenant General Nadir's family has branches, descendants have passed down the rule of the city for generations. Continuously accepting new citizens from other cities Pure-hearted citizens are the main ingredients of Lifetopia.

As for the people of the new city, there are sins attached to them. The soul is polluted. Lifetopia would be a place to cleanse the impurities within their hearts. and step over the gate into the city of honesty and dharma

Yaño stopped in front of the city gate. The young woman's face looked weary. Her body was full of Lifetopia lineage. She wandered across the city and came to the forbidden forest. An image of the downtown commercial district flashed in her eyes. Vendors shouted and called out to customers. She was used to the picture in front of her. Because this is my hometown.

“Why did you come back like this?” said Triash, the current governor of Lifetopia. asked his sister After the townspeople saw her lying unconscious in front of a butcher shop.

“I was very hungry. I remember trying to walk to the house and…”

“So what?”

“Then the picture became darker. I must be really hungry.” Yaño reiterated her hunger.

“This is pumpkin soup. After eating, we have something to talk about,” Triash said, handing her a bowl of soup.

Yaño took the time to eat a meal to replace yesterday's portion. And the day before yesterday was no more than fifteen minutes. Then he walked out to find his brother. He was sitting in the living room watching television, waiting for her. But everyone in Lifetopia knows that she is not a guest in this house.

“Is it getting better?” The question conveys the concern of the family. emanating from the elder's mouth

“If you have some strength,” Yaño replied, “I'm about to be killed by them.” Her face flashed with worry.

“Dr. Reva, right?”

“Do you know that?” Yaño was shocked by Triash's unexpected answer.

“Everyone is spreading rumors, but no one dares to interfere.”

“I got caught. I heard that it will buy the governorship of Geres. We have to inform the president about this matter.” Yaño turned around and looked into his brother's eyes. He is sitting on the sofa. She stood blocking the television screen, causing only his sister to be interested in Triach's eyes.

“She has already graduated. Come back here. You don't have to go back and let them kill you,” Triash replied, dismissing the matter.

“I said so. After graduating from government, I should be able to help you take care of Lifetopia.”

“Don't bother running my city,” Triash snapped back.

“I forgot that our city doesn't have elections like other cities. There is probably only one city in the world with an heir succession system,” Yayo sarcastically said.

“Our great-grandmother founded this city. And this system gives our family power.”

"I still have the same personality."

“I will never change. If I were still in this position.”

“Is the population of our city the same as before?” Yayo deflected the issue. If we continue to talk about this matter, it might make my brother upset.

“If you don't count those who illegally enter the forbidden forest, It's probably the same,” Triash answered calmly, picking up the cigar on the wooden table next to the sofa and smoking it.

“And does the system work normally there?” Yayo asked further.

“If you want to know, I'll show you,” Triash stood up. Lead Yayo down to the basement.

The room was filled with screens showing live broadcasts of the townspeople's movements. and the operation of every thing in Lifetopia's hundreds of thousands of channels

The first phase of the announcement of the new law drafted by Lieutenant General Nadir reads: Every house in the city must be equipped with CCTV cameras to broadcast live views. control action and keep an eye on corruption It may happen in homes. and hidden spots Many citizens oppose Lieutenant General Nadir. invasion of privacy

and violation of personal rights is the main reason. But the power of the city's founder Most of the inhabitants of Lifetopia had to accept the new law with reluctance. The rebels traveled to the new city. Leave your homeland To find a city of freedom and privacy

Pictures of the lives of the townspeople are being shown on the town television channels. Everyone in the city has viewing rights with a password based on their ID number. What time will you visit? Anywhere in Lifetopia Some channels show pictures of the golden-haired family. Blue eyes sat in the kitchen eating together. The other rooms in the house were quiet and normal. Some channels project bedroom images.

On a large white bed, a husband and wife were showing their warm love through their bodies. Some channels showed images of old men with gray hair and bald heads taking a shower to wash themselves off. The characters in the various channels are the inhabitants of Lifetopia. Everyone is not shy. Live according to human instinct And of course, immoral events are never portrayed.

It meets the purpose of the city's creators very well. Everyone is a doer. And everyone is every patrolman in this city. The installation of CCTV cameras is the only secret of the people in Lifetopia. and the right to order punishment belongs to the governor. only one person

“Honey, I have news,” Ma Tong said after opening the door. He walked towards his wife.

“Where is it?” Vegel asked back, now the two of them were sitting on chairs. There is a wooden table in the middle. On the table was a vase without a bouquet of flowers but filled with cobwebs. On the ceiling, there was a circular light bulb that provided a soft glow at night for the two of them for a while.

"It's at the governor's house."

“Then let's do it. Our plan is for you to flirt with that kid. and brought it here.”

Ma Tong's expression began to change when he heard his wife's plan. “Why do I have to pretend to love him?”

“Because love is the easiest to deceive.”

“I'm not very sure...that I'll succeed.” After finishing his sentence, Wegel narrowed her eyes at her husband and slowly stood up from her chair. Walk lightly. and sat down on Matong's lap

“I believe you can do it,” Vegel whispered in his ear. Press your nose down to snuggle. Moving on to soft cheeks Press your lips against your husband's. The two used their mouths to crush each other, exchanging sweet kisses before intensifying until they were in bliss.

After starting the plan... every morning Ma Tong headed towards Yaño. Using his charm and handsomeness to pull a twenty-five-year-old woman into a love trap.

“You come to me every day. What do you think of me?” Yaño asked. Now the two of them were in a famous coffee shop in the city. The interior of the shop is decorated with the atmosphere of the original Lifetopia.

“I don't come around every day to find someone I don't like,” he replied with a smile, the fake smile of a married man.

“Where do you know me from?” she asked, embarrassed. Her eyes tried to avoid the glistening eyes of the handsome young man in front of her.

“I met you at the butcher shop. You were unconscious on the road at that time.”

“That means you took me home.” She raised her clear eyes and looked at Ma Tong.

“I've been looking for your house for a long time. Until I take you to deliver to the governor. Uh...your brother got it.”

“I want to go to your house.”

"Alright, are you free this Saturday? I'll take you." The young people persuaded each other shortly. After making the appointment, we headed home like always.

“This Saturday, you prepare yourself,” Ma Tong said after walking into the abandoned house.

“Miss, can this be our last job?”

“I think the same as you. After this work is over, we will go to Europe together.” Maton walked up and embraced his wife from behind.

“You got half your salary, right?”

“Yes, but not enough for the two of us. If you succeed, you will have some leftovers,” Ma Tong replied.

Saturday morning, Yaño was applying nude pink lipstick in front of the bedroom vanity mirror. She wore a sweet pink dress painted with a native Lifetopia pattern. This type of fabric is woven with the wisdom of the people of the city and passed down from generation to generation. She walked out into the living room and prepared to meet Ma Tong as per her appointment.

“Where are you going this morning?” Triash walked out of the kitchen holding a coffee mug.

“To the coffee shop,” Yaño replied to her brother.

“There's coffee at home,” Triash said quietly.

“I made an appointment with a friend there.” Finished, she quickly walked out of the house and headed towards the appointment point.

"Excuse me, did you wait a long time? I talked with my brother for a long time." Yaño ran up to greet Matong. When she reached the town coffee shop The girl was panting from exhaustion. The face was clear, slightly stained with sweat.

“No, I just arrived too,” Matong replied. “Shall we go?”

“Yes,” she responded in a soft voice. “But who do you live with at home?”

“I live alone,” he said, leading her to an abandoned house at the end of town.

“Why have I never seen this house before?”

“You are the famous founder of the city. You really don't know this place?” Ma Tong said.

“How do you know me like this?”

“It's not hard to guess.” Vegel opened the door from the abandoned house. In his hand was a dagger with a silver handle. “Don't resist and follow me,” Vegel continued. Matong grabbed both of Yaño's arms and tied them around the middle of his back. The strength of a thin girl cannot compete with the strength of a muscular young man.

Every television in Lifetopia broadcasts footage of the abandoned house. Although this house's channels do not receive attention Because it's said to be deserted. Many people think that no one in Lifetopia would commit a crime. Everyone knows that even though it is an abandoned house, the cameras in that house are never abandoned as well.

Many townspeople were watching the brutal incident. Some people accidentally found it. Some people invited their friends to watch, and a loud noise resounded throughout Lifetopia. Many prayed for Triash to see what was happening. and ordered special police officers to go help his sister immediately. …He can only give orders in this city.

“Who are you?” Yayo's first question. She was pushed down onto the dusty wooden floor. Her arms and legs were tightly bound with dark brown hemp rope.

“You probably remember that from several weeks ago. What did you know?” Vegel said and circled around Yaño. The rhythmic sound of high heels hitting the old wooden floor.

“Dr. Reva sent you guys, right?”

“I don't think you need to know who sent us,” Matong replied. He walked over and wrapped his arms around Vegel's waist.

“Yes, darling. You're such a mess that you don't understand.”

“Even the voices of those who chose Dr. Rewa are fake. And when it comes to language management in the city, it won't be fake.” Yaño shouted in the face of the husband and wife.

“Whether it's fake or not, in the end, everyone benefits. Dr. Rewa became governor. People in Geres get money Everything is going well if you don't tell the president about this,” Vegel said, reaching out and pulling her hair.

Yaño shook her head and lowered her head. “Geres City will definitely be destroyed.” A trembling voice said with a smile at the corners of her mouth.

“Stop haggling.” Matong walked over and grabbed the dark spike from Vegel's hand. He ran up to Yaño and used his knee to push her back. A white hand lifted the girl's chin to make her face look up.

“Even Dr. Reva's secret will die with me. But everyone in Geres knows that he is the governor. Like..uk.” Yayo's voice didn't finish. A sharp, shiny knife slid onto White's neck. Torn aorta Blood flows all over the body. She fell on her back and lay on the floor. The mouth opened wide but there was no sound of gasping for breath. Eyelids stuck and refused to close.

Images of Yaño's corpse are broadcast throughout Lifetopia. Screams from the frightened A momentary cry of pity rang out. It's like a late-night horror movie from another city. But Lifetopia has never been on television. City residents watch live broadcasts of people in the city as a medium of entertainment. An event like this has never happened.

They have seen people die in hospitals and in homes. Even though they are suffering, every death is caused by the deceased person. Lifetopia has never had anyone killed. An unrequited prayer Triash did not order the police to stop the incident. The townspeople thought that Triash probably wasn't watching the channel.

“He's dead, sir,” Maton said into his cell phone.

(I saw it I'm going to tell Dr. Reva that it can be removed.)

“How should I dispose of the corpse?”

(Leave it in that abandoned house. And you guys can go back to Geres. No one in Lifetopia would dare talk about this matter.)

Ma Tong talked on the phone for a moment and hung up.

“Darling, Mr. Triash has transferred the remaining money to us.” He walked over and shook his wife's hand. With a happy smile

“We returned to Keres to collect our things. And let's move to Europe, right?"

"Of course. We will go and start a new life."
