After exchanging for a large amount of food and drink supplies, the entire 09 Lab team drove a large cargo hovercraft straight to the residential area of Zone B.
As Xia Yixin left Sky City and got closer to the ground, she gained a clearer understanding of this allied nation with its vast disparity in wealth.
The houses in Area B, which are close to the ground, are about the size of a small county town before the apocalypse. Every household lives in a low-rise house, there are very few multi-story buildings, and there are even large areas of shantytowns.
The factory's chimneys spewed thick black smoke, sewage flowed freely, and the environment was filthy and chaotic.
This is almost naturally different from the clean, tidy, and high-tech environment of Sky City.
As the freight hovercar descended, a dozen children ran out of the shantytown, excitedly chasing and playing. Their innocent faces were full of novelty, not fear. Unfortunately, they were quickly pulled back by the adults, whose faces were filled with fear and wariness.
Apart from those who rely on their own abilities or have connections in Sky City, hundreds of thousands of B-level gene users live in Zone B from birth to death and cannot leave at all.
When the white cargo hovercar stopped on the playground in the center of the shantytown, it was already surrounded by a large number of B-grade gene users, a gray and dusty mass.
They watched the group of people stepping out of the hovercar with a mixture of wariness and curiosity, and those with sharp eyes recognized the pretty woman at the head of the group.
"Yes, it's the Commander's wife!"
The news that the wife of the Consul General was distributing supplies in the slums of District B spread throughout the entire District B in less than ten minutes. Regardless of whether they needed relief or not, all the B-grade gene users who were at home rushed to the place where the news was circulating, wanting to catch a glimpse of "Dr. Xia, the pride of District B" who was being talked about by everyone.
In a short time, tens of thousands of people gathered, which also alarmed the PO's execution team.
When they arrived at the scene, they were surprised to see that it was Xia Yixin. They didn't know if it was an order from above or something else, so they didn't dare to make any rash moves and could only maintain order at the scene.
Lu Yuan was in the combat system and had just stepped out of his armor when he received this message.
"Commander, the Madam is distributing food and clean water to the poor people down there. It's been going on for an hour now. Even after she's finished distributing the supplies, the people still refuse to leave and are talking to her. The atmosphere is very lively... The executors don't dare to make any rash moves. Commander, we..." Wang Cheng asked, but then he felt the chill emanating from Lu Yuan and quickly shut his mouth.
A moment later, Lu Yuan's deep, cold voice rang out in the room.
"It's getting late. The wife of the chief has worked hard to go to the refugees in Zone B as I ordered. Send two teams of executors with a thousand catties of compressed food to continue the relief efforts. It's also a way to pray for our wedding."
Wang Cheng felt as if he had been granted a pardon. After bowing respectfully, he quickly led his men down to assign tasks.
Wang Cheng wasn't stupid; he could sense the provocative intent behind Xia Yixin's actions. On one hand, he thought she truly lived up to her reputation as Dr. Xia, whom he admired. On the other hand, he was worried that her actions might lead to even more terrible consequences.
Regardless, today is a "lucky day" for those in Zone B. A thousand kilograms of compressed food is something a Grade B gene individual could never obtain in a lifetime of work.
Xia Yixin and her team worked from afternoon until sunset. Just as she expected, the executors from PO arrived quickly, but they didn't dare to make any rash moves. She took advantage of this time.
Those with B-grade genes in Zone B have lived under repression and control for a long time, and they are actually the ones who need "hope" and "key" the most.
Some people even wept with joy when they received clean water and food.
"Long live the Commander's wife!"
"Xia Yixin, it really is her!"
People shouted in a chaotic yet excited manner, their hands reaching out hopefully for food and water. Some of them had dirt on their bodies and faces, but no one was scrambling for it. The waiting executors around them represented a deep-seated fear of being dominated.
But being able to get food from Xia Yixin and see her in person was already exciting for many people.
Xia Yixin could even hear adults lecturing children, saying, "Look, that's Xia Yixin, Dr. Xia. She went to Sky City from Area B outside. She will be the future wife of the Chief Commander. As long as you work hard, you can also go to Sky City!"
The children's eyes sparkled as they looked at Sky City, a paradise in their minds overflowing with food and water.
Unbeknownst to them, this scene touched the hearts of Li Rui and the other lab members.
Especially those who also come from Zone B.
They've been gone for so many years that they've almost forgotten they once lived in such a place.
As Hongfeng distributed supplies, tears welled up in her eyes, because she knew that very few of the 100,000 B-level gene users could actually reach Sky City.
Even if you go up there, you still have to obey the orders from above.
Thinking of her "special mission," Hongfeng glanced at Chen Zhe out of the corner of her eye, and a resolute look gradually appeared in her eyes.
On the other side.
Because so many people really wanted to see Xia Yixin, there was a long queue at her place, but she tried her best to fulfill everyone's wishes.
At most, they might shake hands or hug their child.
Because individuals with Grade B genes are only allowed to have one child in their lifetime, the family bonds here are much stronger than in Sky City. Many fathers or mothers give the supplies they receive to their children as soon as possible.
Although it's often described as "single-parent upbringing," seeing this scene finally gave Xia Yixin a glimmer of hope. Human nature cannot be suppressed by systems, and neither can love.
She had already seen several young couples standing together, and although they weren't doing anything, the way they looked at each other was different.
