At night in the outer city, every household keeps their doors and windows tightly shut, and no one dares to look out, let alone go out. Only patrolling robots remain on the streets.

In contrast, the inner city was much more lively, and under the white moon, one could still see the second-generation gods "racing" in airships.

If only a small number of people were infected, it would indeed be troublesome. But now that everyone has become infected, there is no difference. On the contrary, normal people stand out and are more likely to be targeted.

The worm gazed at the bright white moon and suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

"The moon seen from the outer city is red, its light like blood, and prolonged exposure can cause many diseases. But that moon is a fake moon created by the inner city, its purpose being to prevent lower-class citizens from sneaking around at night."

"Because Eve was not in a position to manage the outer city, the gods simply devised a way to restrict the movements of lower-ranking citizens."

Yin Zhu also glanced at the moonlight: "Oh, I see. Then why is the inner city area white?"

“That cover,” Hirano Shan reminded Yin Zhu.

As they entered the inner city, they clearly sensed something separating it from the outer city. Similarly, the dome filtered out the artificial red moonlight, leaving it only for illumination.

"Based on the prince's description, this should be the place."

Although they no longer need to worry about being located by Eve, the three of them, without the Good Spirit Officer, still move very carefully, trying to stay in seclusion and avoid running into the patrolling robots.

The "meeting place" the prince mentioned was a bar in the central area near the outskirts.

Yin Zhu looked up and saw that even the bars on the outskirts of the area looked to be more than ten stories high. Most of the rooms upstairs had their lights on, with only a few rooms having their lights off.

People were coming and going from the entrance from time to time, so it wasn't desolate.

Perhaps because Eve is in charge of the inner city and the verification process is very strict, unlike the outer city which requires security guards to stand at the entrance, even Yin Zhu and his group can swagger in.

The bar was just as dimly lit as the night outside, and the group of people, caught up in the revelry, wouldn't notice whether Yin Zhu was a benevolent spirit.

"A Bloody Mary from '82, please."

Yin Zhu stepped forward and gave the bartender the agreed-upon code.

The bartender gestured for someone to come upstairs: "You'd like to go to room 20 on the 5th floor."

A few minutes later, Yin Zhu and the other two arrived at the door. Yin Zhu and Worm looked at each other, debating who should knock first, when Hirano Shan moved, stepping between them and gently knocking on the door.

The doors to the bar's private rooms open upwards, giving them a feel of a spaceship's mechanical cabin door.

Inside the private room, a boy who looked to be only in junior high school leaned back on the sofa, slightly raising his chin. Despite being shorter, he had a condescending air about him: "Come in."

After the three entered, the door closed, and the worm cautiously touched its headphones.

"Don't be nervous. I just didn't want Eve to know about our conversation, so I did some filtering. You know, we Class A citizens always have some privileges. Rules are for the lower classes, after all."

The moment this brat opened his mouth, he exuded an air of condescending nobility.

He waved his hand and said, "But I'm very kind and I won't look down on you low-level citizens from out of town. You can find a place to sit and relax. If I wanted to harm you, I could have located you and sent the Bureau of Supervision to arrest you as soon as you replied to my message. Although your hackers are quite good, they are still too green compared to A-level citizens."

Yin Zhu frowned, suspecting that he might have some misunderstanding about "not looking down on people".

However, this little guy probably thinks he's speaking the truth, so he's completely oblivious to his own limitations. Oh well, young people are always proud and arrogant; he'll learn his lesson later...

"Get to the point."

The worm noticed that this boy was talking a little too much nonsense.

“We’re here to help you rescue her, but how do you want us to cooperate?” Hirano San slowly pointed out the key point of the meeting. “Do you know where she’s being held? Do you have a detailed plan? What role do we need to play in this?”

This series of questions completely baffled the prince.

He froze for several seconds, then pretended not to care, rested his head on his arms, leaned back, and sank into the sofa: "I'm just a kid, you adults should be thinking about these things."

The prince hadn't considered it. The prince chose to give up.

Yin Zhu habitually glanced at the others around her, only to see Hirano Shan smile gently and wink at her with her beautiful peach blossom eyes:

"I'm just a minor, right, sister?"

Unexpectedly, Hirano Shan is now using Yin Zhu's old excuse as a new one. Hirano Shan also refuses to offer any advice and shifts the blame to Yin Zhu and the worm.

Now that they've entered the final round, how will Yin Zhu and the Worm shift the blame?

“I’ve always felt that women are a great gender, capable of creating life, so I don’t think I’m qualified to make the overall decision. Bamboo, we believe in you.” The worm solemnly patted Yin Zhu on the shoulder, its words completely illogical and purely an attempt to shift blame.

"Ah... okay."

Yin Zhu had mixed feelings about making this decision, but since everyone else was doing the same, she had no choice but to accept it.

This was the first time she had been involved in decision-making involving multiple people.

Yin Zhu has a domineering personality. Logically speaking, she should like to boss others around, but since childhood, everything about Yin Zhu, whether it's her studies or hobbies, has been decided for her by her parents and older sister. Over time, Yin Zhu has developed a very awkward habit.

She wants others to listen to her, yet she fears making the wrong decisions, so she immediately wants to rely on others. This is a change in her simple personality under the influence of life.

However, if she really had the opportunity to make a decision, she wouldn't strongly decline it.

Yin Zhu found a sofa, sat down, and looked at the semi-transparent display screen that appeared on the coffee table. She began to summarize: "First of all, our ultimate goal is to rescue Ta Lang Bu Zhai Hua..."

"You could say we don't pick the flowers," the prince added quietly.

“Okay, anyway, we need to save her, so first we need to determine her location.” Yin Zhu looked at the prince and the worm, as she was completely helpless in this regard.

The prince took out a portable computer, quickly connected to the network via the cable in the private room, and reviewed the surveillance footage again—because of Eve's presence, most of the inner city could be monitored at any time.

Because she was identified as a Class A citizen, Eve wouldn't mind him seeing her data and it wouldn't trigger an alarm.

"He's locked up in a building near the temple." Soon, the worm and the prince found their destination.

"So the next step is to figure out how to save her."

As Yin Zhu spoke, something else came to mind.
