Chapter 297: 297. Sunshine Base’s Situation

"Conflict between the awakened people and the people in the base," Uncle Matthias replied. "Their death rate is higher because the medicine is not distributed to everyone who needed it. Well, in short, many people couldn’t get the medicine in time and passed away. Thus, those who managed to awaken outside the hospital has grudge with them. Just this morning, some people started to make trouble and the people we sent to monitor them sent news about it."

Uncle Darien: "..."

Does the people there so stupid that they couldn’t see the effect of blatant favoritism?

But thinking that most of the people there were businessmen who only looked for profit or those incompetent people who took advantage of their wife’s family... he was not very surprised.

They wouldn’t care about the other people in the base when there was someone near them who fall sick.

Thus, the end result was rather tragic.

Their base alone was already in difficult situation as they were trying to cure those who were sick during this period of time. Even if the number had decreased, many people were still in the hospital.

The medicine was limited and it could only be given to those who could pay.

It was not certain whether there were some people who were dissatisfied out there in the base.

"Oh well." Uncle Darien sighed. He was not money and it was impossible for everyone to like him. What he could do was to do his best for the base and try to reduce the number of people who were dissatisfied with him.

Hopefully, everything would be alright in the future.

"I know, I’m not close with those people either." Uncle Darien nodded at the other two.

He knew that they were worried he would be soft hearted because there were some of his friends over there. But only he knew that most of his so called friends were nothing more than business partners.

They got together because of profit and when the situation was not very good, they would go on their separate ways.

There was no way they would stick together through rain and storm.

They were not that close.

So even if they came to him to ask for help, Uncle Darien couldn’t help them either. Not mentioning the fact that their distance was so far, he himself was also busy with many things in his base. If he could spare his time to care for them, he would be superhuman at that time.

Anyway, Uncle Darien was not that selfless.

"Good." The two other people nodded.

They talked a few more words before leaving.

Uncle Darien looked at their back and then shook his head as he buried himself in the large number of the documents in front of him. He still has a lot of work to do and there was basically no time for him to care about others.

...

Sunshine Base

Uncle Matthias and Second Uncle Kenan did send some people to monitor this base. After all, this was one of the three bases in City A and if something happened there, they might be affected due to the close distance.

Of course, the number was not many because they couldn’t really free their hands so much for this.

The news they received in the morning was true.

At this time, many people were protesting and currently fighting with the guards in the base. They were yelling the word injustice, but those who were at the top basically couldn’t see them.

In Williams Family, Betty and her brother, Brian, were sitting together. They were watching the window in front of them about the chaos outside.

Because of the situation there, most of them were living in high rise buildings. The furniture and decoration inside were all remodeled to make sure that they could live well when they were inside.

And those with high position was living in higher floors compared to the others.

But not so high that it hindered them to move.

Some building’s elevator has been fixed but for other buildings, the elevator remained scrap. They could only go up using the cleaned up stairs.

In the past few months, everything was going well. Betty was living very well and didn’t have to worry about anything. After suffering in that annoying apartment back then, Betty felt that the difference in life was simply the difference between Heaven and Earth.

Naturally, she let go of her worries.

And it was only recently when she heard that her former friend was here that she started to pay more attention to these people who came to the base. Naturally, she would not let go anyone who tried to harm her.

But then the awakened people started to appear. Their abilities were all very remarkable, making one felt that they were powerful. Even if they were not that powerful yet, they would be in the future. The current them only needed time to grow up and practice their abilities.

Some people started to feel threatened.

And thus, it led to today’s chaos.

Betty and Brian were not allowed to go out by their father, so they stayed in the living room in their ’house.’ The house was more like a floor that was dedicated for their family to stay.

Their neighbor, who were living upstairs and downstairs were all also important people in the base.

Jake was also living in this building, but his floor was much higher.

Betty would go there to pay a visit to him or the opposite, he would come down to pay a visit to her.

"Do you think they will come to the base and threaten us?" Betty asked as she looked down where many people were fighting on the street.

"No. They’re too weak to do it," Brian answered calmly. "There are not many resources they could use and their weapons are only like that. Who gives them the courage to fight against the powerful base who had more guns and ammunition?"
