The way toward any higher district was blocked by a thick wall and a tal gate that only opened from the other side. This ans if soone from District V wanted to enter District U, then the only way to have soone from District U open the gate.
Or they can always try climbing the slick concrete wall over two hundred ters tall and monitored by arm guards.
However, in the history of slum districts establishnt, no one has ever tried to climb the wall because it was aningless since they would be instantly spotted the mont they climbed to the top or by the security at the other side. More importantly, they were too weak even to live, much less climb such a steep wall.
Yet, this didn't stop Cyrus from heading toward the wall of Slum District U, and it was completely unguarded since no one wanted to waste ti observing BoD patients walking.
Just a few ters away from the wall was a clear area which was the market area where so stalls were located that sold so daily necessities like rotten grain, old clothes, and so ho appliances. The at was like gold here, which only appeared once a year.
But these market areas were all controlled by a higher-level district, and everything was of the lowest quality, and their prices were simply out of these people's reach.
The currency in this place was small Copper Coins which could earn by doing odd jobs.
Cyrus was used to selling junk here for one copper coin; sotis, he won't even have enough to make one copper coin. Just 100 grams of grain cost three copper coins, so one could only imagine just what kind of situation these people live in.
Cyrus felt rage bubbling up when he looked at the man with black hair and a green uniform. With this rotten smile, he sat behind a counter nad 'Junk Exchange' as he enjoyed a hot breakfast.
This man was nad Logy, and he was one of the police force and was in charge of one of the stalls. The job of police could only be described as a luxury in this place since they all get clean clothes and three als a day.
But this job was only for those who were not infected by BoD, and they had to have good physical strength as well.
But these supposedly protectors loathe the one they should protect the most and never do their jobs, even if soone files a complaint.
Anyhow, Logy was soone who had wronged Cyrus from his hard earn money multiple tis and even once slapped the poor fellow, nearly breaking his weak jaw when he tried to speak up.
From that day on, Logy deliberately bullied Cyrus by fiddling with the weight, and Cyrus could do nothing but ground his teeth and endure since he knew he wasn't a match for a perfectly healthy police officer like Logy.
However, now Cyrus should be at least as strong as Logy, and Cyrus was soone who held a grudge even in his past life. He never let those who offended him have the last laugh.
This ti wasn't different either.
Since old Cyrus hated Logy, this hate was inherited by the Lust God, and he had never felt so much hate for a very long ti.
Cyrus looked around, and shops were still closed since it was very early in the morning, so there weren't people there.
Only those junk collectors like him work whole nights to earn their keep, so Logy opened his stall quite early and closed it early.
With cold eyes, Cyrus headed toward Logy's stall, and when Logy noticed soone was walking, he lazily looked over while holding a tray filled with plain bread and a cut of hot tea.
Logy's brown eyes instantly widened when he saw the hair over Cyrus's head which was the sign of a healthy ordinary without being effective from BoD.
But this kid was wearing District V's rotten clothes, and District V shouldn't have a healthy ordinary amidst them, so Cyrus naturally falls under suspicion.
He placed his breakfast down, took out the baton attached to his belt, opened the small counter door, and stopped a few ters away from Cyrus.
Logy coldly questioned while clinching the baton, "Who are you? Quickly surrender for investigation, or I'll beat you into submission!"
Cyrus's appearance was a world apart from yesterday, so Logy naturally won't recognize him. Even if soone beat him and told him it was the sa scrawny kid who he constantly bullies, he would never believe it!
Because it was common sense that a patient of BoD was destined to die and it was incurable.
Cyrus glared at Logy with murderous intent, "Tell , how you guys trade supplies from the other side to this? Since that gate never opened, there has to be a passage, and I want to know where it is!"
Logy was startled before he laughed out loud, "Hahahaha… you little piss ant, do you even…."
However, before he could finish his mocking, Cyrus's empty hand suddenly shrouded in a dark mist before it moved in a blur, and before Logy could react, the sharp edge of Lust Sword was only an inch away from piercing through his eye!
Logy's eyes almost popped out of his sockets from sheer horror as sweat beaded on his forehead while he looked at Cyrus with horror.
Cyrus coolly said with a cold grin, "Are you telling , or should I just stab your eyeball?"
The baton in his hand quickly fell on the floor as he instantly replied with a pale face, "S-sir U… Unique, I was blind, please spare !"
Cyrus frowned and coldly replied, "If you speak another word besides the answer I seek, you won't have a life to beg for anymore!"
Although there wasn't anyone around, it didn't an there won't be at any mont. Cyrus didn't want to waste more ti and get out of there after acquiring the information he sought!
