This is the most important bargaining chip for Noah Technology and the Ecological Bureau to check and balance each other, but Xie Ji feels that now is not the time to play this card.
After the car smoothly drove onto the road, Xie Xuan asked Yu Wu, "What's the situation inside the Ecological Bureau? What are the positions and thoughts of most people?"
This is also what Chongming wants to know. He can get objective and neutral facts from the Internet, but people's ideas are not enough.
"Most people don't want the Ecological Organization to collaborate with District Six on a so-called universal human evolution project," Yu Wu said, pausing. "But they also initially didn't fully support Director Si's idea."
Yu Wu spoke in a calm, even voice, "For them, maintaining the status quo is the best option. Their work, while dangerous, is lucrative and provides them with a high social status. If the wall collapses, whether all of humanity is infected or the infection is completely eradicated from the planet, it will mean the end of such a comfortable life for them."
Xie Xuan could understand these people's thoughts very well, because not long ago she was also one of those who held the same idea of lying down.
Yu Wu took another deep breath before finishing his words. "However, after your performance today, many low-level psychics have changed their minds. To them, the danger of their jobs outweighs the high pay. If they could truly return to the days before the infection, they feel their lives would be even better than they are now."
When Xie Xuan heard the prefix "low level", she knew that Yu Wu was about to take another turn.
Yu Wu continued, as expected, "But high-level psychics, such as the vast majority of those participating in today's operation, generally tend to favor the ecological organization. This is because their abilities are certain, and the probability of them becoming infected if everyone is infected is lower than for ordinary people. In the future planned by the ecological organization, they will still be a small group of people standing at the top of society."
This was also what Xie Xuan had expected. After all, people are selfish in nature. The idea and blueprint of returning to the pre-infection state proposed by Xie Xuan was like heavenly music to most ordinary people who were struggling to survive in the wasteland era. However, these high-level psychics, as vested interests, certainly did not want Xie Heng to break this pattern.
But judging by the number of people, more than half of the people in District 6 must support Xie Xuan, but unfortunately, more than half of the small group of people who control most of the resources are against her.
Xie Xuan was destined not to have an easy path, not to mention that this path was now filled with countless traps dug by ecological organizations.
But now that things have come this far, Xie Xuan can't turn back.
Behind her, countless people have spent countless days and nights, and even paid the price of their lives, to help her get here.
It takes more than an hour to get from here to 98th Street. After Xie Xuan asked the information she wanted to know, she let Yu Wu take a rest.
After all, he had pretended to look for her seriously for an hour in the ruins of the court.
Chongming and Xie Xuan continued to read people's opinions on the incident online.
Similar to what Xie Xuan thought, most ordinary people support her, and even keywords related to her directly occupy the top three of the hot search list.
The first one is "Creator", the second one is "Xie Xuan Creator", and the third one is "10th Street Hijacking Incident"
Scrolling down, there are ten items on the list that are related to her. Everyone is desperately trying to know who Xie Xuan is.
The official announcement from the Ecological Bureau was that Xie Xuan had died in the explosion, but everyone could see that after the explosion, Xie Xuan's supernatural powers lingered above the ruins for an hour before completely disappearing. If he was really killed in the explosion, the supernatural powers would completely disappear the moment the supernatural person died.
Everyone completely disagreed with the Ecological Bureau’s announcement, but the official Ecological Bureau just started playing dead.
The discussion of this matter was unprecedentedly heated, as if everyone had stopped working and started watching the progress of this matter.
But no matter how much everyone watched, no one knew where Xie Xuan had gone.
Xie Xuan herself was reading these posts while feeling extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
By the time they finally arrived at 98th Street, the online discussion about Xie Xuan had reached the point where someone in the 45th Branch of the Ecological Bureau, where Xie Xuan had previously worked, was holding up Xie Xuan's ID photo and talking about her past glorious deeds.
The simple thing is that he was still a D-level psychic when he joined the company, but he became an A-level psychic within just one month, and was finally transferred to the development department for unknown reasons.
Xie Xuan turned off the terminal screen, and the onboard system of the energy vehicle prompted them that they had entered the range of 98th Street.
Yu Wu didn't know when he woke up and was looking at the peaceful street outside the car window.
"Put on some protective gear," Chongming said. "Although it's conspicuous in protective gear, your face is even more conspicuous now."
Xie Xuan also thought so. She took out two protective suits from the supplies prepared by Xie Ji and threw one of them to Chongming.
Yu Wu was already preparing weapons, and Xie Xuan and Chongming also symbolically took some after putting on protective clothing.
For Xie Xuan, the most handy weapon right now is still this dagger.
Thinking of this, Xie Xuan asked Chongming curiously, "Do you know what my dagger is made of?"
Chongming turned his head and glanced at it. "It's an infection. If you must say what it's made of, it's made of mycelium."
Xie Xuan was silent.
She remembered a short video from more than a hundred years ago in which a blogger specialized in making knives out of various objects. She didn't expect that her dagger was based on a similar principle.
However, Xie Xuan did not dwell on this issue for too long, because it was still daytime and they could not directly enter the headquarters of the ecological organization's District 6, which was still operating normally, in broad daylight.
There was still some time before dark, so Xie Xuan suggested going to the hospital affiliated with the ecological organization, which she had visited last time.
Chongming also knew this place. It was closed down due to an out-of-control infection incident several months ago, and it has been closed and shelved until now.
Chongming didn't ask Xie Xuan why she wanted to go here, and directly changed the destination of the navigation.
Yu Wu asked, "Why do you want to go here? Because it's unused now. Could it be used for research?"
Xie Xuan said frankly: "Before I went out of the wall, Xiao Yao and I went here. I had a strange feeling at that time, but because of the rush of time, I couldn't find anything."
She paused and said, "Anyway, we're just waiting for dark. The affiliated hospital is very close to the ecological organization, so we might as well find a place to kill time."
The first time Yu Wu went on a mission with Xie Xuan, he felt that Xie Xuan was worthy of being a woman who could say that she wanted to be a creator. Even the places she found to kill time were so fresh and unworldly.
