The "villa district outside the safe zone"—the name implied they would have to detour around the exterior of the safe zone to get there. But Chester Sawyer was leading them down a small path from within the villa district they were already in.
"The villa district you're here to clear out and the one we're in now were originally a single, complete community. To wall off that other half, several of us Second Level Earth Ability Users worked day and night to build that wall. Honestly, Chief Sterling set the prices for these villas so high because he doesn't want people who are too weak living here. That way, if those damn things on the other side of the wall ever go crazy and break out, not too many people will get hurt." Chester Sawyer explained to Flora Bloom and her group as they walked, hoping the four of them would understand his well-meaning warning and turn back.
