I am Blue Five.

Blue blue, number five.

It's not my name, it's just my code name.But I always use it as a name, and I don't have a name of my own anyway.

I am an outcast.When I was two years old, my parents took me to a small town I had never been to.I don't know how far it is from home, I only know that I followed them on the train for a long time.When we got there, they put me at the gate of a police station and told me to wait, they were going to do something and they would pick me up in a while.I believed it, but was wrong.From the time they turned and left until now, I have never seen them again in the past 33 years, not even a single glance.

Healthy boys are also thrown away?

Some people may find this strange, but it's really not surprising at all.As long as you feel that you can't afford to support yourself, both men and women will be abandoned, otherwise there should be only girls in the orphanage.

I don't hate them, I mean the parents who threw me away, I just pity them.Pity their ignorance, their ignorance.Since I know that my living situation is not stable and my family is not rich, why do I have to give birth to so many children?How many am I?I don't remember, it was either the fifth or the sixth anyway.Why do you want so many children?Is it used to test your own cruelty?Ridiculous, sad, pathetic.

There are people in the society who constantly satirize our family planning policy, often pretending that they are not Chinese, saying what is so and so about this national policy, and what about a certain foreign country.In fact, how many of these people really understand foreign society?How many of them have actually lived in the country they raved about?In my opinion, it should be very few.If they really understand as they say, then they should know that what should really be satirized is not the one-child policy, but those people who are still playing with their lives under such a system.

This is ignorance.This is ignorance.It's completely my own business and has nothing to do with society or anyone else.A society is made up of the people. If the people are ignorant, the society will naturally not progress.You can't ask the society to make you not ignorant while you are being ignorant. No society has this ability. Only you can do this kind of thing.

Taught me this truth.It was one of my adoptive fathers, a soldier who looked like a big and three rough.Ever since I was abandoned by my unscrupulous parents, I was carried back by the police at the police station.I have lived in the homes of many policemen, and also in their dormitories.I don't remember how long that period of time was, I only remember it was a long, long time in my vague memory.I also knew they were trying their best to help me find my parents, but they couldn't find them.

Later, I was sent to a large yard, where there were many children like me, both male and female.Big and small.We ate together, studied together and lived together there like one big family.Many years later, I found out that the big courtyard was not an orphanage, but a base for the education of a state institution.

Around ten years old, we had a round of testing.The content of the test is many, including the knowledge already mastered.Self-learning ability, physical fitness.Mental quality and so on.The most important of these is to review our character to see if we are suitable for the job we will undertake.I didn't know what the job was at the time, all I knew was that people who failed their tests or wanted to go back to their families stayed there.Those of us who qualified were sent to another place.

That place was in a deep mountain, and once we got there, we were divided into many groups, each represented by color.I was in the blue group, number five, and since then.This name became my name.Although after many years, when we walked out of this deep mountain, everyone can have a real name for themselves, but most people still choose to use their own numbers, and I certainly do the same.

Although the new living place is deep in the mountains, the conditions are not bad.It's just that we have more things to learn and more stringent requirements.Each of our groups had several adoptive parents, ranging from able-bodied soldiers to bespectacled scientists.They are responsible for teaching us knowledge and skills, ranging from astronomy and geography to life encyclopedias, in addition to fighting skills, firearms, mechanical manipulation, even makeup, tracking, etc. There are many kinds and varieties.Of course, in addition to being our teachers, they also take care of our lives, take us to play and talk to us in their spare time, just like real parents.Therefore, we are always reluctant to call them "instructors", but have been calling them parents.

Among these adoptive parents, the one person I respect the most is the soldier who taught me the principles of life.Although he looks big and thick, but his mind is very delicate, and he is also very kind.It is he who taught me a lot of truths, allowing me to correctly understand the world and look at society.It was also he who eliminated my resentment of being abandoned and the hatred of my biological parents, so that I did not move towards the darkest corner of my heart, but towards the light.Many years later, when my companions and I walked out of that mountain and became a member of the "Research Department" with a new identity.He has changed from our adoptive father to my boss, code-named Lao Ding.

Yes, I became a soldier of the Secret Service, which is the "agent" in the public perception.It's just that my responsibilities are different from those of ordinary secret agents. I work in the "Research Department".

You read that right, it is "relevant departments".This is not a sarcasm, but the truest portrayal of what I do.It doesn't matter where there are strange creatures that have never been seen before, or a flying saucer is seen in such and such a place, or even whose cat can talk, it is the same.Almost all the strange things that exceed common sense are related to our department, so we are called "relevant departments".We will rush to the location of the incident as soon as we receive the notification, conduct investigations as "relevant departments", and try our best to verify the authenticity of the incident.If it is fake, it will naturally be handed over to the local public security agency.If it is true, then we will continue to investigate and try to find out the truth of the incident.

There are such organizations in many film and television works or novels. Without exception, these works give such organizations a very prestigious name, and describe it in a mysterious way, as if every member of People who belong to this kind of organization are themselves aliens.In fact, our department is called the Institute, and the name is not prestigious at all.Also, we are not secretive.In other words, it is not our intention to make people think it is mysterious.It's just that, under normal circumstances, we don't take the initiative to reveal our identity.Even if the identity is clarified, we usually do not explain the situation to the parties in detail, but instead use sentences such as "Sorry, the question you raised involves state secrets, and I have no comment." Such sentences refuse.

It is indeed necessary to do so.Our jobs are dangerous and weird.Most of the time, the things we encounter are things beyond the normal scientific system, and it is difficult to explain clearly in the language that ordinary people can understand.For example, "The ray numbered [-] can change the inner-rotation structure of mitochondria, making it evolve into a tower-type hemi-rotation state." Can ordinary people understand this explanation?But that's the truth, there's no other way to describe it.Even, sometimes, we don’t even know how to explain the facts we discover, so how can we announce them to the public?

This is one of the reasons why we often keep silent, and there are many other reasons, one of the more important ones is "to prevent rumors from appearing and destroying the stability of people's lives."Our ancestors once said aphorisms such as "three people make a tiger" and "a man's words are terrifying". The harmfulness of rumors can be seen from these words.Regardless of whether the person who first spread the rumors was unintentional or intentional, once the rumors are formed, they will definitely have an impact on the lives of the people, and even cause serious harm.Some time ago, as a big salt-producing country, didn’t we have a frenzy of salt grabbing because of rumors?The things we have seen are far more weird than table salt. If someone who does not know what is going on spreads the word, the consequences will definitely not be as simple as losing some money.

For the safety of all, we must remain silent - this is what Lao Ding often says.

Ordinary people will never imagine how their actions will affect others, nor will they understand what the phrase "responsible for their words and actions" really means.Today's society is very impetuous, and people are even less concerned about their own words and deeds. They often even think very self-consciously that what they do has nothing to do with others.In fact, no one in the world is alone, no matter how lonely the person is.Destiny is like an invisible big net, which includes everyone.Every one of our actions is actually inseparable from other people. A good deed or a bad deed, no matter how small, will definitely affect others.A handy hand may save an old man from falling and dying, and an unextinguished cigarette is likely to burn down a house.There are countless examples of this kind, but, in many cases, people don't know the impact they have caused.

These words are also said to me by Lao Ding.But I didn't expect that one day, I would personally verify these words.

That day, Lao Ding disappeared.

Lao Ding's disappearance raises many questions and attracts many people.One of these people caught my attention because it was the second time he had come into my sight.

Mu Qisheng, this is his name. (To be continued..)
