"Hey, Windmill, how are you doing, have you been hurt again?"

"No, I'm fine."

"So are your previous injuries healed?"

"Don't worry, it's already fine."

"Oh."

There was a noise on the other side of the phone, and soon Ifrit's voice came.

"Hey, yo-yo, when are you coming back?"

"It should be soon."

"Then don't forget to bring me a gift, oh yes, to tell you a good news, my little Mo flew back again, hehe, she really likes to be with me."

"Well, that's good."

"Okay, I won't tell you, I'm going to play baseball with Ergou, you come back early, someone bullies you and calls me at any time, I'm Lord Ifrit to burn ......."

Before she could finish speaking, Big Brother Ace snatched the phone.

"Hey, Xia Feng, how are you doing?"

"It's going well, I'm waiting for a chance."

"Be careful yourself."

"Well, how is the headquarters doing, Rich hasn't made any moves."

"Not at the moment, the situation is similar to before, and there are basically no people coming to this street."

"Okay."

After that, Xia Feng briefly inquired about the progress of the medical department, as well as whether Ansel was used to his work.

Hanging up the phone, Xia Feng glanced at his bracelet.

Critical period: 4

Countdown to the next cycle: 8 days

It has been more than a week since he came to Notting City, and he has carried out a lot of large and small tasks, and he can't be said to be very clear about the operation mode of the Chamber of Commerce, but he probably has a certain degree of understanding.

He has come into contact with the Einsatzgruppen under Frydo, more than 30 people, more than half of whom are infected, and most of them can use the source stone technique, it is no exaggeration to say that this is a gangster special forces.

At an internal gathering, he had also seen the bosses of the seven districts of Notting City, the average age of these bigwigs was forty or fifty years old, and the youngest was in his thirties, not even a stunned young man like Edge and Simon, all of them were very deep, it can be seen that the respective forces of the seven bosses under Frydo have been very stable.

The bosses of these seven urban districts treated Xia Feng quite politely, especially when they knew that he was the "hero" of the Bloody Harbor Gang, they all came up and praised him again and again, but it was only polite, from the perfunctory expression hidden under their expressions, they didn't take Xia Feng too seriously in their hearts, they just regarded him as a tool man who could fight a lot, nothing more.

This week, Xia Feng basically lived in Nanfeng's house at night, after a few days of getting along day and night, he and Nanfeng became more and more connected, and the relationship between the two skyrocketed, and now they are almost like brothers.

To be honest, at the beginning, in his relationship with Nanfeng, there was indeed a small part of the ingredients used, and through Nanfeng's integration into the base camp of the Foridor Chamber of Commerce, he came into contact with some core businesses, especially the source stone business, which was one of his purposes.

But as time went on, he felt more and more that Nanfeng was a good guy, and at the same time, he felt that he valued him.

Combined with the plans of his department, Xia Feng felt that he could also do something for Nanfeng.

..............

On this morning, Nanfeng suddenly said that he was going to visit "Grandpa".

Xia Feng knew that the grandfather in his mouth was not his real grandfather, but an honorific title.

The two drove all the way south until they were almost out of the city, and there were no buildings on the side of the road.

After nearly 20 minutes of driving down a bumpy dirt road from the wide road, a dilapidated residential area appeared ahead.

As Xia Feng guessed, this is the designated living area for the infected in Notting City.

This is the first time that Xia Feng has come to the real infected area, and although there are many infected people living in the Kilt neighborhood, it is almost indistinguishable from a normal street due to the privileges of the city.

The towering wall stretched endlessly on both sides, and the large iron gate was now open, and there were a dozen people in military uniforms standing at the door, who seemed to be the military police in charge of guarding the entrance and exit.

"Beep beep!"

Nanfeng drove the car to the big iron gate, honked the horn frantically, and after reading the license plate of the off-road vehicle and the person sitting in the driver's seat, the military police on guard did not become angry, but stood in place a little bewildered.

A moment later, a captain-looking man stepped out of it, walked to the window, bowed his head and said something inside.

"Brother Nan, you're here."

"Yes."

Nanfeng just casually said "en" and didn't pay attention to him anymore.

The captain waved his hand, and the military police standing in front of the iron gate immediately got out of the way, and the south wind kicked the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle roared in.

It is still relatively easy to enter the area of the infected person, especially with an identity like Nanfeng, which even crosses the application and registration.

But the people who live in it want to figure it out, but it's not that simple.

This is the real living quarters of the infected, and Xia Feng is mentally prepared that he may see something different from the glossy and prosperous big city.

The area was large, with low bungalows as far as the eye could see, and it was very dilapidated, and because the road was narrow, the southerly wind had to slow down and the off-road vehicles carefully weaved through the streets.

The road was a little bumpy, and Xia Feng didn't see anyone along the way, and occasionally there were a few thin pedestrians, all of whom were gloomy and vigilant, and at the same time there was a deep despair in their eyes.

There are no shops, no hospitals, no public entertainment facilities, and although the muddy streets and dilapidated houses give it an oppressive atmosphere, the summer breeze does not see the hysteria, blood flowing haphazardly, and corpses piled up and burned.

I found that Xia Feng had been looking at the street scene outside the window solemnly, and the south wind driving said loudly.

"The environment here has improved a lot compared to a decade ago, when I was a child, there were homeless infected people in every port, they were draped in straw mats, and no one even knew when they died in the corner, and now at least everyone has a sheltered house, although it sucks."

"That's what you grew up in?"

"Yes, don't be surprised, even now, the infected areas in most of Victoria's cities are still in that environment."

This is true, Victoria's policy towards the infected is good enough, most people can maintain a minimum of survival, maybe a few people will starve and freeze, but at least there is no need to worry about being strangled and expelled, if in Ursas, the infected will not be able to sleep well.

Although he is very sympathetic to Nanfeng's childhood experience, Xia Feng doesn't want to ask about that kind of long-term thing, to put it bluntly, this is everyone's fate, at least he survived.

However, Xia Feng was concerned about another issue now, and he felt very strange about the reason why he and Nanfeng were here.

"Nanfeng, why does your grandfather live in the infected area?"

"Because he's infected."

The summer breeze turned its head sideways.

"With your abilities, it should be easy to take an infected person out and live a normal life, don't tell me you can't do it."

Nanfeng sighed.

"Of course I did this kind of thing, but grandpa didn't want to, he said that only by living here can he live."
