"Unauthorized entry is prohibited. Please leave immediately."
Lu Yuan swiped his ID card on the machine, and the robot's red eyes immediately turned green.
Welcome home.
Two robots stood to the side, and the roller shutter door opened suddenly. Lu Yuan led his family members inside one after another and found their respective rooms according to the building numbers indicated on the keys.
The facilities in each room are basically the same, with an area of about ten square meters. Each room has two beds, and the rest of the room is empty, without even a dining table or chairs.
There were some discarded garbage bags, used tissues, and other dirty things scattered on the ground. The room smelled strongly of mold. Lu Yuan not only covered his nose but also kept Xiao Shan out of the door.
"It's too dirty inside, we need to clean it up. Let's go check on the other people's rooms and help Grandpa and Grandma tidy up their rooms."
Xiao Shan nodded and then walked towards the next building. The rooms where everyone lived were basically all in this building, which was a nine-story building with no elevator and only a narrow staircase. Most of the area was used as living quarters.
At this moment, there was no one in the entire building, and even the sound of voices echoed. Lu Yuan went to his grandparents' room and found that their room was quite clean. Occasionally, a ray of sunlight from the sky would shine in, adding a touch of warmth to the dim room.
"Oh, this room is actually quite nice. Let's tidy it up first."
As he spoke, Grandpa took off his backpack and prepared to re-lay the bedding on the bed, while Grandma went to the public water station to fill a basin with water to wipe the stains on the bed.
Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan found brooms from a distance and started cleaning. Everyone was busy.
Finally, everyone finished their work and, feeling bored, gathered around the narrow balcony.
"Now I can finally relax. I can focus on work tomorrow. By the way, what are your plans for the future?"
Zhou Tong, with a cigarette dangling from his lips and a steamed bun in his hand, turned to look at Lu Yuan and asked.
"Let's wait a while and see. At least let's get familiar with this area first."
"Well, that's good. At least they'll know which direction to take in the future. But Grandpa and Grandma aren't in good health. Should we let them work in the factory too? And are it really appropriate for the two children, who are so young, to work in a factory?"
Zhou Tong looked at his daughter running back and forth in the stairwell with some concern.
"Let's go take a look first. At least Brother Long doesn't seem like such a bad person."
"You can know a person's face but not their heart. We still have to be careful. Didn't Chen Linyu seem very friendly before? In the end, he still tricked us."
Lu Yuan couldn't help but grit his teeth at the mention of Chen Linyu.
"That bastard, and Gu Wenzhong and Jiang Mingxuan, although they ran away, I will settle accounts with them sooner or later. I'll let them go for now. It seems I really have to be careful and keep my eyes open."
Zhou Tong nodded, glanced at Han Wen in the distance, and hesitated before speaking.
"Sigh, they don't seem too chaotic right now. We'll have to see if it gets as chaotic at night as it is in District Nine."
"Yes, if things continue to be chaotic like in District Nine, we'll have to stay in the factory for at least a few more hours."
Lu Yuan was also somewhat worried, fearing that the same chaos would occur here as there.
After finishing their dry rations, everyone chatted idly for a while before feeling extremely tired. Since there were no shower facilities, they could only rest in their own rooms, wearing their old clothes.
Lu Yuan rested his head on his arm, unable to fall asleep. He was still pondering how to escape his fate of working in the factory.
He would rather use his dimensional space to start his own small business here, ideally owning his own little farm, living his own life with everyone else, without getting involved in anything else; he was truly exhausted.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yuan finally fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Lu Yuan had even forgotten whether the same robbery had occurred in District 8 the previous night.
It was only after asking Zhou Tong that they realized that a similar robbery had occurred in District 8 as in District 9.
However, it seems that the people targeted by the Eighth District are mostly senior executives; they are the main targets of these people.
They arrived at the entrance of the oil mill together with the others.
The nearby workers couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan and his group a few more times, but they didn't say anything and went into the factory with their belongings to start working.
Before long, almost everyone had gone inside. After waiting for about half an hour, Brother Long finally came back with a few people.
"Newcomer, come this way."
Brother Long waved to Lu Yuan and the others.
What skills do you have? Can you do physical labor?
Lu Yuan quickly took two steps forward, pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket, and handed it to the other person.
After taking the cigarettes, Brother Long took a closer look and realized that they were a pack of 95 Supreme cigarettes.
"Where...where did you get this cigarette from?"
He clearly hadn't expected Lu Yuan to be able to get his hands on such cigarettes, and looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of surprise.
"Oh, I bought it on the black market before, but I've never been willing to smoke it."
"Oh, no wonder." After saying that, Brother Long glanced at Lu Yuan again, carefully pulled out a cigarette, lit it, took a couple of puffs, and handed it to the person next to him.
