Feiya, who was leading, turned her head to look at He Ao, whose steps had halted.

"It seemed pretty lively here before,"

He Ao's gaze shifted from the sign on the ground that read "[······Research Institute Commercial District]" as he lifted his eyes to look at the various 'shops' with their doors wide open.
