Homo sapiens

January 2, 2019.

Luzon.

Manila city area.

In Manila, south of the Pasig River, Li Qingye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Manila branch of Homo Sapiens Company. What he saw was undoubtedly paradise:

Towering and majestic commercial buildings, busy office buildings, dazzling shopping malls, and high-end hotels are undoubtedly prosperous and busy.

And he gently turned his engineering chair and looked calmly towards the Manila-Tondo area north of the Pasi River.

A house built casually out of iron sheets.

There is almost no space between the two houses, like garbage piles stacked together.

At least ten people live in those rooms that are less than twenty square meters.

The surrounding environment is either a garbage mountain or a septic tank.

Separated by a river, heaven and hell can be seen in full view.

Looking away, Li Qingye came to Manila this time and brought a lot of people with him. Chen Jianxiong, who was dealing with some things, hurried to him.

"Boss, this is the information I have investigated over the past three months. Please take a look at it."

After flipping through the information, Li Qingye still had an expressionless face. Even though there were countless horrifying descriptions in it, it still did not shake his heart one bit.

Zhang Wei, who followed, looked a little pale at this time.

Li Qingye glanced at him and casually pulled out a page of information: "This is what you want."

With trembling hands, Zhang Wei looked at the contents on the paper with his heart beating fast. After a few minutes, his face became even paler and tears burst out uncontrollably.

"Let's go! Go and see what darkness is!"

After speaking, Li Qingye walked out with Feili and Chen Jianxiong, and Zhang Wei also stood up, holding the piece of paper tightly in his hand, as if there was an unbearable weight on his hand.

A dozen modified jeeps left the parking lot of the branch building and drove toward the northwest of Tangdu District.

After crossing the river, in the streets and alleys of the slums, all kinds of eyes were watching the convoy.

There is greed, envy, prying, awe and hostility.

The convoy stopped until it arrived in front of a tin house. A group of security personnel were alert to the poor people around them. The safety on their pistols had been activated and they were ready to fire at any time.

In the jeep, Li Qingye asked calmly: "Jianxiong, do it!"

"Yes." Chen Jianxiong picked up a portable pheromone biocomputer and entered a series of instructions. Soon, the pheromone honeycomb placed on the roof of the jeep began to continuously release various pheromones in all directions.

More than twenty minutes passed.

Some feedback popped up on the biocomputer's screen.

Chen Jianxiong immediately reported: "Boss, the mission is completed."

"Let's go down for a walk." Li Qingye opened the car door.

A group of people walked on the messy streets of the slums. Flies were flying everywhere. The strong smell of spices and fried food filled their nostrils. It was a special delicacy called "pagpag".

Many of the shops on both sides are restaurants selling "pagpag".

Walking on the road where sewage flowed and garbage was strewn, Li Qingye did not feel uncomfortable, because in his eyes, the rest of the world was just as dirty and dark.

At the end of the street is a group of buildings surrounded by bricks and iron sheets.

There was only a distance of more than 300 meters, but everyone walked very slowly.

A father and son passed by Li Qingye.

"Dad, I got first place in the exam today. When I make money in the future, I will definitely take my parents and sister to live in a big house in the south..." the child said full of longing.

The father smiled reluctantly and rubbed the child's hair: "Haha, study hard and I will reward you with a pagpag today."

"Really?" The child swallowed involuntarily.

Not far away, a skinny little girl heard the conversation between the father and son, her eyes showed envy, and her stomach growled louder and louder.

Suddenly she seemed to have made up her mind and rushed towards Li Qingye. Fili reacted instantly and drew his pistol without hesitation.

Before Fili could shoot.

The little girl knelt on the ground and shouted in a weak but firm voice: "Sir! Please, take me away! I am willing to do anything, as long as you give me a little food, I eat very little... "

Fili tilted the muzzle of his gun towards the ground, as if waiting for an order.

The little girl's eyes were full of longing and pleading: "Sir, please, I'm really willing to do anything..."

It was the light of wanting to live. Even though she was so weak, she was extremely tenacious. She knew that this was her last chance. If she missed this time, what was waiting for her might be starving to death in a corner.

"Nice eyes, like stars, I suddenly appreciate you a little." Li Qingye looked into her eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

The moment when Li Qingye slowly walked past her.

Despair completely enveloped her eyes.

‘Rejected? Have I stopped here? How unwilling! Maybe this is my destiny! Like rotten fruit in the garbage dump, it is not even qualified to be picked up and made into pagpag...'

"Follow me! If you still have the strength."

What? The little girl's desperate eyes suddenly glowed with ecstasy, and the light was like a supernova explosion.

Although she was about to lose consciousness due to hunger, her desire for life supported her to keep up with Li Qingye. Her body, which had already been exhausted, was once again squeezed out of the last bit of strength.

The poor people around him were extremely indifferent to this.

Come to the end of the street.

There was silence inside the wall. Suddenly, several figures wearing masks and caps appeared at the door and pushed open the closed iron door.

Li Qingye led a group of people and walked in without hesitation.

This is a relatively closed neighborhood, among dozens of iron houses, it is very quiet at this time, when the iron gate is closed again.

Chen Jianxiong said: "Boss, the person is inside."

When the soldiers led everyone into a room, Zhang Wei completely lost control of his emotions: "Brother! Wuwuwu..."

He recognized at a glance the decadent middle-aged man lying in front of a computer. The man's feet were chained with an iron chain, and one of his legs was disabled.

And the others in this room weren't much better.

This is one of the dens of the Fuqing Gang in Manila. More than a hundred Chinese people who were deceived were detained here and engaged in online gambling.

The Fuqing Gang specializes in tricking Chinese people into coming to work, and what they are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg.

Zhang Wei's brother Zhang Hao was deceived in this way. The other party used high salary as bait to defraud Chinese people.

After these deceived people arrived in Manila, they were either extorted, locked up in slums as hard labor, or forced to work as drug donkeys, or even had their organs removed. As for the girls, it was even more miserable.

Since Zhang Hao was a programmer, his treatment among these people was already calculated. It was just that he was disobedient at the beginning and had one of his legs broken.

After leaving the room, Li Qingye stood in the middle of the block.

Although Chen Jianxiong on the side had seen a lot of darkness, the shocking sight before him still made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Li Qingye's eyes became increasingly cold: "This stinking world really needs to be cleaned up."

"We have already controlled the leader of the Fuqing Gang in Manila, but branches in other countries will probably notice the problem here soon," Chen Jianxiong reminded.

"It doesn't matter, I never worry about the threat of dead people."
