Today, September 24, 201X, is a very important day for Ji Zai and Uncle You. Not only their own life and death, but also whether their family members can survive or not depends on the results of today's experiment. Shuangyinglong and several men with tattoos and knives have been closely monitoring the two since the morning to prevent them from escaping.Jizi sighed: Where can we go in this situation?It is impossible to leave parents and younger brother alone.Just as Uncle You can't leave his daughter behind. Jizi and Uncle You are busy working together to adjust and check various equipment.The office is full of all kinds of things: radio sets, various transceiver antennas, laptops, emergency generators, exercise bikes, etc., many of which were collected and assembled by Brother Long.

"Whatever you need, just tell my subordinates." Brother Long said at the time: "The most important thing is to get this done." The emergency generator was originally powered by diesel fuel, and Uncle You added two exercise bikes and converted it into a human power generator. , and Long Ge's men took turns stepping on it.This is an unwelcome drudgery. Every time the two young and Dangerous boys cast a vicious look at Jizai and Uncle You, Jizai is very scared. Kat Tsai was originally in Form 6 and will take the Diploma of Secondary Education examination next year. Although he didn't go to a prestigious school, he was a top student, especially in mathematics and science, so he should have no problem entering university.Now he thought of the pile of textbooks at home and laughed.I don't know if there will be any exams or universities in the future.

It's a relief not to have to go to school, because I don't have to see the "guys" at school anymore.Jizi's real name is Kittichai. His father is from Thailand. He came to Hong Kong to work as a chef and married a local to settle down. Kitzai was born in Hong Kong, so he doesn't even speak Thai well; but after he introduced himself in Form 1, he was spotted by a few precocious and tall students in his class. "Huh? You are Muay Thai! You must know Muay Thai!" Since then, he has often been used as a "boxing" object.Jizi has endured it for five years. He thought he would have to endure another year to get out of the misery. How did he expect his school career to end in such a strange way?

At this time, Jizi helped Uncle You adjust the antenna sticking out of the window.Uncle You was still wearing a sloppy white vest and thick glasses, concentrating on measuring the antenna's sending and receiving signals. "Come to the right... stretch out a little more... good!" The two cooperated seamlessly.They didn't meet after the "big shutdown", they were friends for three years.Apart from his studies, Jizi is very obsessed with computer program cracking, and is also very interested in amateur radio. Although his family cannot afford such an expensive gadget, he often goes to relevant online forums to absorb knowledge, and then does virtual research by himself (Dad said this Quite slightly: "Shanzi, what kind of technology are you doing, Hong Kong, you are so hard!" - but Jizi has lived to this day because of this interest).

Jizi met Uncle You on the forum.Uncle You is a typical electrician idiot. He has a very powerful radio set at home. He knows Jizi's enthusiasm for radio. We all live in Prince Edward, Mong Kok, so he invites him to his house to play.Both of them are "autistic men" in the eyes of others, but they have become year-end friends. Does dad have some terrible addiction...). Like many ham radio enthusiasts, Uncle U has an emergency generator at home. "Hmph, if there is any catastrophe in Hong Kong, I will rely on me to seek help from other places!" He often said proudly, patting his chest.

As a result, the "Big Shutdown" really happened.Jizi went to his house immediately after the accident.The two tried for a long time but still could not contact the outside world.Uncle You knows from experience that the communication is blocked by external interference signals. "It could be military-grade interference," he said after listening carefully to the noise, explaining to Jizi how to hear a pattern. "As long as there is a pattern, it can be cracked." Jizi said while touching the laptop.But cracking takes time and resources.Now it's a situation where I don't even have the next meal.

They finally decided to find Long Ge, the most powerful boss in Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei.Since the accident in the pond last time, Brother Long learned from the pain and took the risk of taking his men down to attack the police. Finally, he grabbed a batch of guns and consolidated his position. But Brother Long knows that his power cannot last long: Hong Kong is completely blocked, and there is no import of any new materials. Sooner or later, the food resources will be exhausted, and his organization will inevitably collapse... What will become of Hong Kong in the end, even he himself does not know. Dare to imagine.

When Jizai and Uncle You came to him with suggestions, he agreed without hesitation, and tried his best to provide the necessary supplies and protection, and also provided food for their family. ——Being able to break through the blockade is better than sitting still... At least see what people outside know... Jizi input the interference signal into the computer for analysis, as long as the signal pattern is determined, the radio can send out a synchronous signal, Avoid distractions. But it's not easy after all.After a month of research, Brother Long was already impatient.Uncle You had no choice but to conduct the first test today.

Although he said "experiment", Uncle You knew that if he failed, Brother Long's complexion would be very ugly.Whether they and their families can survive is really not sure at all.The two felt that Brother Long's eyes behind them were like sharp nails... "OK, here we come." Uncle You said, with sweat dripping from his forehead, instructing Jizi to control the power of the radio.The signal pattern calculated by the computer is sent from the antenna protruding from the window. Brother Long behind also showed a very nervous expression. After ten minutes.Uncle You kept switching channels and shouting his call sign.There is always no answer.Brother Long's expression became angry.Uncle You's vest was soaked.

"Can't you..." Jizi moaned in despair. Suddenly, a human voice in English came from the loudspeaker: "EW8KL..." Uncle You burst into tears when he heard the long-lost radio call sign.
