Xu Taiping couldn't believe what was happening right in front of his eyes.

The cost of setting up such a large underground city was very high. Based on Labrador's attitude towards Bulma and the others, he would never spend such a large sum of money on them, much less give them such a luxurious life in the underground city.

For Labrador to do all this, he must have some plan in mind. Then, what exactly was his plan?

Xu Taiping thought for a long time, and could only think of a few points. One of them was to reduce the cost, and gather all the villagers scattered everywhere into one place, which would reduce the cost of management. Also, the scattered villages had to use cars to send food to them every day, and the cost was also very high, so if they all gathered together, the cost would be greatly reduced. The other thing was, if people gathered together, it would be very easy to manage.

Other than that, Xu Taiping could not think of anything else. Perhaps, this underground city was also trying to deal with the human rights organizations?

"Is everyone's life the same as yours?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Well, yes." Bulma nodded his head and said, "Although we can't have enough to eat right now, at least we eat better than before and we're even more full than before. Moreover, this place doesn't have the intense sunlight on the ground, so it's even cooler."

"But you are humans." Xu Taiping frowned and said, "How can you live underground as human beings?"

"When we live on the ground, we're not human. Here, at least we can fill our stomachs, but what do we care if we're human or not? living like a human, can you let us eat our fill? " Burma asked.

Bulma's words left Xu Taiping at a loss for words.

"Your so-called human rights, here in our hands, are not as good as a loaf of bread. We don't need anyone to rescue us, we just need to be able to eat our fill. " "Thank you for always thinking of us, but we are all happy to live here, so this is for you."

With that, Bulma handed the tracker to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping took the tracker, looked at Bulma, and said, "Are you sure you don't want to go back to the surface? What if you go back to the surface and you can live like this? "

"How could there be life back on the surface? "Impossible." Burma shook his head.

"If you don't give it a try, how will you know if it's impossible?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I'm just a kid, how am I supposed to try? "Now, let me return to the upper levels. I don't even have a home, only a road of death." Burma said.

Xu Taiping was silent, because he felt that Bulma was right.

The so-called dignity of a human being was not worth a single bit to someone like Bulma, who had been living on the edge of starvation for a long time. Perhaps people like Xu Taiping would feel that living underground was not a good idea, and that there was no personality, but for Bulma and the others, as long as they could eat enough, personality could be completely discarded.

At this moment, Xu Taiping suddenly heard a scream not too far away.

Xu Taiping looked over.

He saw two soldiers in camouflage clothing, chatting and laughing as they pulled a woman towards the house beside them.

Although this woman was very thin, it was obvious that she was pretty. Her hand was being held by someone, and her entire body was being dragged into the room.

The woman screamed crazily, but it was completely useless. Beside her, a man was begging for mercy. He put his hands together, begging the two soldiers not to take his wife away. However, the two soldiers ignored him completely.

Just like that, the woman was dragged into the room, while the woman's husband could only stand outside, his body trembling uncontrollably.

The crowd coldly looked at this scene, no one stood up.

"Stop looking, let's go." said Bulma, moving forward.

Xu Taiping frowned and followed.

From the house not far away, the sound of a woman's wailing could be heard. It was heart-wrenching.

At that moment, the man standing in front of the door suddenly let out a furious roar, then directly dashed into the house by the side.

Roars and curses came from within the room, and all was quiet after the sound of a gunshot.

A soldier with one hand on the foot of the man from before came out of the room.

The man was dragged across the ground, leaving a long trail of blood.

The man faced downwards, and no longer had any life left in him.

The woman in the room was crying, but it was useless. The soldier that was left in the room was recklessly staring at the woman.

The dead husband was casually thrown by the roadside. Then, the soldier next to the husband looked around proudly and walked back into the room.

Xu Taiping did not step forward. He followed Bulma, walking off into the distance.

While walking, Xu Taiping mumbled to himself, "Dignity, personality, is it really that unimportant?"

Bulma lowered his head and said nothing.

Perhaps, at this age, having a full meal already surpassed everything else.

Burma had moved the bag into an open space.

It could be seen that there were already many of these bags on the ground.

Bulma wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked to the side of a person in charge of registration.

"Your bread." The man handed over a fist-sized loaf of bread.

The bread was dark and not very fresh, but it was definitely delicious for Bulma.

"Thank you." Burma bowed to the registrar, who smiled, touched his face, and said, "Burma, uncle has a lot of bread in his room. Would you like some, I can give you a lot."

"Is that so?" Bulma asked in surprise.

"Brahma, let's go back." Xu Taiping stood at the side and said solemnly.

"But he has a lot of bread for me." Bulma pointed to the middle-aged man in charge of registration.

"Just enough bread, let's go!" As Xu Taiping spoke, he took Bulma's hand and led him to the side.

Although she was a little angry, she suppressed her annoyance at the thought that Xu Taiping had once given her money.

The middle-aged man didn't get annoyed, smiling as he sat in his seat, watching Xu Taiping and the others leave.

"From now on, you can move your things, take the bread and leave, do you understand?" Xu Taiping said.

"Why?" Bulma asked.

Xu Taiping found it difficult to speak. Could it be that he wanted to tell Bulma that the middle-aged man might be a pedophile? For a child like Burma, paedophilia and sexual assault were very far away.

"Anyway, just take the bread and leave, for you and for your mother." Xu Taiping said.

"Alright then." He shrugged and put the bread in his pocket.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I want to keep them for meat." Bulma said proudly.

"You really do want to eat more meat. You're too skinny!" Xu Taiping said.

"Once we have meat, we can make meat soup. That would definitely be the most delicious thing in the world." Burma said.

Hearing Bulma's words, Xu Taiping still felt a bit sad. Although he had already seen through the world, when some things happened right in front of him, he still found it hard to control himself.

His self-control was getting weaker and weaker. This was the obvious weakness of Xu Taiping after he left the assassination world.

Xu Taiping followed Bulma back to their house as they chatted.

Their residence was on the north side of the underground city. The family lived with another family in a small two-story building. Bulma and his family sat on the first floor while the other family lived on the second.

Bulma's mother, of course, did not recognize Xu Taiping, who had turned black, and was surprised to see that Bulma had brought back a man.

Xu Taiping didn't explain anything. He asked Bulma to help him keep his identity a secret. He told Bulma's mother that he was just a friend he had met along the way.

Bulma's mother didn't think too much about it. She was lying on the bed with a few children. Although her face was still haggard, it was much better than when she was on the ground.

"You see, this is our current life. We have a house to live in and a meal to eat. There's nothing bad about it." Burma said.

"Do you really not want to go up?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I don't want to." Bulma shook his head.

"Alright then." Xu Taiping sighed. He wanted to save her, but she didn't need his help. Since that was the case, Xu Taiping couldn't be bothered to waste any more time.

Perhaps, to the vast majority of people here, being able to eat their fill was enough for them to be willing to stay here.

Xu Taiping had already made up his mind. Since everyone here was living a good life, he didn't want to do anything unnecessary.

"I hope all of you can stay here happily!" Xu Taiping turned and left.

"Thank you." Burma said.

Xu Taiping smiled, waved with his back to Bulma, and walked on.

Not long after, Xu Taiping disappeared from in front of Bulma.

Watching Xu Taiping walk away completely, Bulma walked into his house, handed the bread in his pocket to his mother, and said, "Mom, I'll carry a few more bags of food. We'll trade for meat tomorrow."

"Don't be tired." Burma's mother said.

"No way!" Bulma shook his head, then turned and walked out of the house.

At the same time, Xu Taiping had moved away from Bulma's house.

However, Xu Taiping was not in a hurry to leave. In fact, Xu Taiping was still very interested in such a huge underground city. Putting everything else aside, exploring this underground city was also a pleasure for Xu Taiping.
