In the blink of an eye, the training camp is about to end.

Xia Yu took a day off and left the mountain patrol team one day in advance.

He planned to use this day to go to Baidao City, Gao Yanxin's hometown, to meet his sister and mother.

Xia Yu was not at ease with Gao Yanxin. He witnessed Gao Yanxin betraying and killing Hao Saihong in order to save his own life.

Although he had warned him with his family, Xia Yu was suspicious, prudent and cautious by nature, and he was not sure how important his family was in Gao Yanxin's heart.

He was worried that Gao Yanxin was the kind of person who could abandon his family, so Xia Yu planned to go and see his family in person, to see his mother and sister, and to see the relationship between his family and Gao Yanxin, so that he could make a judgment.

Speaking of his suspicious nature, Xia Yu found that he was gradually becoming like Cao Cao. Cao Cao was a suspicious person by nature. He killed Lü Bushe's family just because he heard the sound of sharpening knives.

…………

Xia Yu rode a flying Pokémon to Bodao City. Because flying Pokémon cannot be ridden in the city, Xia Yu could only take a car to Gao Yanxin's home after arriving in Bodao City. He first withdrew some cash, bought some fruits and snacks, and took a taxi to Gao Yanxin's home.

Gao Yanxin's family was not well off. They originally lived in the surrounding countryside, but since his sister was admitted to a key high school, the family moved to the city for the convenience of studying. However, even if they lived in the city, they lived in the urban village where the rent was the cheapest.

His home is located in a dilapidated tube-shaped building in the old city's urban village. The building is crowded with all kinds of people, including young men with dyed yellow hair, young women who dress up and hide during the day and go out at night, and young people with tattoos. Thousands of people live in the small tube-shaped building.

Although there are many people, the environment nearby is not good. Not only are the surrounding supporting facilities poor, but water and electricity are inconvenient and the environment is extremely bad. There is a landfill not far away, and a large number of garbage trucks pass by every day. You can smell the pungent smell of garbage all the way.

Therefore, anyone who lives here and has a little money chooses to move away. The only advantage here is that the rent is cheap, there is public transportation right outside, and transportation is relatively convenient.

The slums are like a pool of mud, except that some people would rather sink into the mud until they die, while others would work hard to break free from the mud.

…………

Most of the people living here are lower-class residents of Baidao City, wearing shabby coats. You can see some dirty children rolling on the ground, raising clouds of dust, making all kinds of Pokémon out of mud, playing house, and shouting that they are the number one trainer and so on.

Xia Yu wore a mask, not only for his own safety, but also to be fully armed to avoid being recognized and causing trouble.

When Xia Yu walked towards the building, the residents around him couldn't help but look at Xia Yu out of the corner of their eyes. It was obvious that they had never seen Xia Yu, or it was rare for rich people like Xia Yu to appear in the urban village.

Even though he was wearing a mask, they could still tell from the way he was dressed that Xia Yu came from a wealthy family and was not a local.

The building was old and mottled, with moss growing in the corners. Xia Yu walked on the road and asked an old man sitting in a chair basking in the sun about Gao Yuwan's news.

"Uncle, does Gao Yuwan live here?" Xia Yu skillfully handed over a Meloetta cigarette. This kind of cigarette is also a high-end cigarette in this world and is known as a luxury among cigarettes.

Even though Xia Yu never smoked, he still prepared some just for times like this.

Taking the cigarette from Xia Yu, the old man put it in his pocket and said to Xia Yu with a smile, "Yu Wan hasn't finished class yet. Only her mother is in the room, in the corner of the third floor."

"Thank you, uncle." Xia Yu handed over another cigarette and walked towards Gao Yanxin's home.

…………

"Who is this guy?" Watching Xia Yu leave, a thin gangster wearing a thick down jacket and with dyed yellow hair walked up to the old man and asked.

He had been paying attention to Xia Yu since Xia Yu came over, and couldn't help but ask about Xia Yu's background.

"I don't know. Who would have recognized him if he hadn't seen him wearing a mask?" The old man looked at Xia Yu's leaving figure and said, "But this guy is quite rich. See? Meloetta cigarettes."

As the old man spoke, he took out a cigarette and put it to his nose and sniffed it gently. He smelled the faint smell of tobacco and showed an intoxicated smile on his face: "It smells good, really good."

"Who is he looking for? Do you know?" the yellow-haired man continued to ask.

"Gao Yuwan." The old man said, "I've long said that the little girl from the Gao family has great potential. Look, she has married a rich man and become a phoenix."

When the yellow-haired man heard what the old man said, his mind became active and his eyes moved around. I wonder what he was thinking about?

…………

Coming to the third floor and walking in the long corridor, Xia Yu could hear frequent coughing sounds. Living in such an environment for a long time, most people would have some lung disease to a greater or lesser extent.

Xia Yu's appearance still attracted a lot of people's attention. People like Xia Yu should not appear in a place like a tube building. Some residents upstairs poked their heads out, with curious eyes.

The neighbors upstairs and downstairs were quite familiar with each other. When a stranger came, everyone came out to watch the fun, curious about who this young man came for.

"I bet five bucks it's for Gao Yuwan."

…………

Xia Yu walked to the room at the end. The shabby wooden door was slightly closed. Standing at the door, Xia Yu knocked gently.

There was a rapid coughing sound from inside the house, which was heart-wrenching, as if the lungs were going to be coughed out. The coughing sound lasted for a long time before it stopped, and then a hoarse voice came from inside the house.

"Who? The door is unlocked, come in."

"I'm Gao Yanxin's friend, he asked me to come and see you." Xia Yu opened the door and entered while talking.He looked into the room. There was no light in the dim environment, the windows were closed tightly, and the room was filled with a pungent smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Are you Yanxin's friend? Come and sit down." In the dim light, Xia Yu saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the house. She looked haggard, with a sickly pale face, skinny, and sunken eye sockets. The middle-aged woman was about to get a stool for Xia Yu while talking: "I'll go get you some water."

"No need to bother, just sit down and have a rest." Xia Yu took a table and sat down, putting down the fruit and milk in his hand: "Yan Xin told me that you are not in good health, this is the fruit and milk I bought for you."

Listening to Xia Yu's words, a smile appeared on the middle-aged woman's pale face: "How is Yan Xin? Is he doing well working on the construction site? He told me that he was promoted to team leader some time ago and his salary increased a lot? How did you two meet?"

Xia Yu listened to the middle-aged woman's words with a smile on his face, and responded one by one: "He and I are friends. We both work in the same place, and we are all young people. We became familiar with each other after a while."

After hearing what the middle-aged woman said, Xia Yu already had the answer. He was able to keep in touch with his family frequently and deceive his mother with white lies, which proved that his relationship with his family was at least not too bad.

"That's great." Gao's mother was happy to hear news about her son who was far away. A kind smile spread across her face. "Yanxin is a stubborn kid. He is not very obedient at home. Has he offended anyone?"

"Auntie, let me tell you." Seeing Gao's mother's heartfelt smile, Xia Yu also smiled and said, "Yan Xin is doing well. His leaders appreciate him and everyone likes him. Just relax."
