No one knows when it began—
But the world was split in two.
Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

"It doesn't matter whether I have any personal contribution or not, I just hope..."
This time, Withers interrupted Alfonso before he could finish.
"Alfonso, I know you feel very uncomfortable about having you return to Wild Wind Pass."
"But you are also an important talent in District E. We are not abandoning you, but trusting you."
"Under your management, Yefengkou was very stable before, but that kid from the Jialin family just arrived and caused such a big mess."
"After weighing the pros and cons, you are the only one who can clean up this mess."
"If we can reach an agreement with Region G and take Wild Wind Pass back into our own hands..."
"This position of commander is firmly yours."
"I promise!"
Alfonso's passionate voice came from the receiver.
“Thank you for your trust, District Chief!”
"It should be done."
Withers had clearly run out of patience: "Good night, Commander Alfonso."
Pop.
The phone was hung up.
Alfonso's face was extremely cold.
Looking at the hung-up phone, he said coldly to himself...
"Chief District Officer Weathers, I will not betray your trust in me."
…
On the other side, after hesitating for a while, Weathers immediately made another call.
The person who called was the Director of the Intelligence Department of Region E.
Weathers received all the so-called news from the outside world from here.
After the call was connected, he spoke directly without even saying an opening remark.
"I have some news. Go and confirm it."
