After hesitating for a moment, Xia Yixin still asked Lu Yuan if she could take another look.
She was worried not only about Hongfeng's condition, but also about Chen Zhe and Hongfeng's relationship. She had noticed Chen Zhe's feelings for Hongfeng before, and he had twice defied law enforcement for her sake. Since a third kind of relationship was still taboo, she was worried that something would happen between them.
Lu Yuan did not refuse her request.
Hong Feng, Chen Zhe, or even Li Rui—to Lu Yuan, their value lies solely in being members of Xia Yixin's team. Her cherishing of them is the reason Lu Yuan brought them here for "protection."
However, he didn't know that he would soon find that he had oversimplified things, or at least some of them.
The "special area" is the place that Li Rui had shown Xia Yixin before. It is located on the top three floors of the PO Executive Headquarters, in the highest protection zone. In addition to Li Rui and her group, there are other people here who need "protection".
There are three floors in total, with a U-shaped design. The central white plaza, which is 100 square meters in size, serves multiple functions, including a playground, activity area, and canteen. To avoid confusion, they all stood outside their assigned residences, on the railings, watching Lu Yuan and Xia Yixin pass through the central activity area under the protection of the enforcers.
Xia Yixin was initially focused on Hongfeng's situation and didn't pay much attention to them, but gradually, some unfriendly gazes caught her attention.
Not everyone is a fool. Those who were sent here for "protection" gradually realized that they were actually under house arrest, and their gazes toward Lu Yuan became more hostile. However, they were all wary of the enforcer and could only protest with silence.
This is something that even those in positions of power cannot do—ensure that everyone's interests are met.
Amidst all these gazes, Xia Yixin suddenly sensed a peculiar one. Following its direction, she was shocked to see a "familiar" figure—the girl she had spoken to on the Eden!
She was wearing a gray uniform for a Grade B gene donor, and greeted Xia Yixin with a smile when she met her gaze.
Xia Yixin learned from V that Qian Dahai had emptied the Eden, and the girls had been sent to the preparation zone. She had previously lamented Lu Yuan's "ruthlessness," but now it seemed that things might not be so simple.
And she didn't know if V had overlooked it or what, but he hadn't mentioned this to her before.
