Tang Ye walked slowly, and from ti to ti, soldiers patrolling the street in their vehicles would offer him a ride, which he declined. It wasn’t because he feared that man would recognize him; rather, he wanted to take a good look at what his world had beco.
"Brother Wu, where are you heading?"
"Just out for a look."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the soldiers’ expressions turned odd, thinking they had misheard. Recently, it had been rare to see the powerhouses from the Peace Party outside the Central United District. As ti passed, they even thought there was a ban from the Party preventing Level 6 New Humans from venturing out.
"Brother Wu, maybe it’s better not to go in case that thing abducts you."
Yu Hangwu, unbothered, casually waved his hand and said, "Ah, don’t worry. It’s been so long, and that person hasn’t shown up. He must have left. Besides, the snow has just lted, and the scenery outside should be beautiful. It’s too stifling to stay in the Central United District all the ti. I’ll go out for a look. I’m not that unlucky; I’ve always been lucky."
Yu Hangwu’s words left the soldiers speechless. One of them, who had stayed close to Li Xiaoyan initially, now found the resemblance in their phrases bizarre.
"Then, Brother Wu, we won’t stop you. Just rember to activate the alarm if anything happens. We’ll co to support you as quickly as we can."
"What are you saying? How could that happen?"
"Yu Hangwu" feigned anger but eventually waved his hand and said, "Go ahead with your own tasks. How could anything happen to ?"
"Oh oh, then take care, Brother Wu."
Yu Hangwu didn’t say anything more and walked alone out of the Central United District. After leaving, he didn’t have a clear destination in mind but headed towards the place where Li Xiaoyan had his incident.
It wasn’t far, and soon Tang Ye arrived at that place. However, he didn’t linger; he simply passed by and continued forward. Tang Ye slightly furrowed his brows. He didn’t encounter any strange people as he passed through that area, and, like that, he walked several rounds around the United District without running into that man.
When he returned in the evening, Tang Ye hadn’t encountered any trouble.
"Boss, has that guy really left?"
Sitting on the sofa, Tang Ye’s eyes held a contemplative look. He was wondering why that man hadn’t acted against him—could it be he had seen through his real identity.
"He probably really has left," Ah Fu said from nearby, also thinking that might be the case.
Tang Ye stayed silent for a long ti before speaking, "That can’t be right. If he just left like that, then why did he kidnap Ruan Chao’en and the others?"
"Just purely to abduct a few people?"
Xu Haishui nodded. That was also a plausible thought.
"It could be that these days we’ve kept everyone locked in the Central United District, giving that guy no chance to make a move. He took a few days to rest, and it just so happened that nothing occurred when you went out, boss."
"That’s possible," Tang Ye nodded.
"Damn it, being pushed to this point really sucks!" Ah Fu complained. After all, the United District was their turf. Being scared into hiding in the Central United District and not daring to venture out was embarrassing.
"Enough, Ah Fu. You can’t even beat him; just play it cool for now," Xu Haishui comnted from the side.
"Hey, Old Xu, have you been floating on air recently?"
"No more than you."
"Whatever."
"Stop arguing! I’ll go again tomorrow. If that guy hasn’t left, eventually I’ll catch him."
"Boss, that’s true, but going out like this might make that guy suspicious. I think it should look more natural if there is a specific purpose."
"So, what’s my reason for going out?"
"Yu Hangwu handles these kinds of comrcial matters. There’s a lot of shops outside, and these past few days, haven’t we prohibited them from going outside the Central United District? Just take this opportunity to create so trouble at a few large stores, preferably needing Level 6 New Humans to resolve it."
"Let’s do that then. Arrange everything by tomorrow morning; I’ll head straight there."
"Alright."
In the following days, several resistors appeared in the United District, sabotaging the economic industries of the Peace Party—all because of a mysterious individual. This forced many of the Party’s top figures to retreat into the Central United District, not daring to co out, and also stirred up so people to take action.
So said these were strong people sent by the opposing forces of the United District; otherwise, such acts wouldn’t occur.
Others said the Peace Party might have been targeted by so monster.
Regardless, the ergence of these saboteurs brought many people’s thoughts to life, possibly seeing this as an opportunity to overturn the Peace Party’s rule.
They continued to appear at the Peace Party’s industries in the United District, wreaking havoc and causing nurous casualties each ti, which forced Yu Hangwu, a Level 6 New Human, to step out of the Central United District to respond.
However, a single Level 6 New Human was insufficient, and soon, those with ulterior motives took this opportunity to greatly expand their underground forces, unaware that these so-called saboteurs were rely actors.
"Brother Wu, there’s trouble again!" At Yu Hangwu’s residence, two soldiers hurriedly entered and shouted upon seeing him.
"What’s the location this ti?" Compared to the soldiers panicked deanor, "Yu Hangwu" appeared calm, seemingly accustod to these occurrences.
"Yajin Exchange Zone," one soldier explained.
"Yu Hangwu" frowned, "Why always that place?"
The Yajin Exchange Zone was specifically for the residents of the United District to exchange Evolution Crystals for Yajin, a key economic supporter of the Peace Party, making it a logical target for those individuals.
"We... don’t know?"
"Alright, how many people?"
"About seventeen Level 5 New Humans, a few of them are Hong Tangren’s n."
"Heh, let’s deal with those guys after handling this."
Yu Hangwu’s gaze hardened. The recent rise in resistance, with Hong Tangren being one of the most active, a Level 6 New Human, probably thought he wouldn’t draw Yu Hangwu’s attention, hence his brazenness. After all, that abductor was trouble enough.
But Tang Ye was running out of patience. Except for resting the day before yesterday, he had been out every day without encountering that man, and he doubted it would happen this ti, though he felt the likelihood was slim.
