Chapter 235: The End of the World (Part 9)

Xi Yue took Chu Yun to the base early that morning to register their identity information. They could then receive a resident card to prove their identity, which would also make it easier for base staff to check.

Because riots often occur at the base, someone comes to do a simple check every day, and those with unexplained wounds will be isolated in the intensive care unit.

In fact, it means going to jail.

Chu Yun was always very nervous, and Xi Yue saw it. This little alien was really bad at hiding his emotions, and what he was thinking could be seen at a glance.

Fortunately I met him.

However, the person who came to check the building this afternoon was Ren Yuan. Xi Yue was very annoyed. Chu Yun saw the two of them looking at each other and saw the same emotion in each other's eyes.

——The ghost lingers.

According to the procedure, Chu Yun had her pupils and teeth checked. Ren Yuan put his rubber-gloved hand into her mouth. Chu Yun felt itchy and wanted to move back, but Ren Yuan held down her tongue and said in a calm voice:

"Don't move."

Five seconds later, the teeth were checked inch by inch, and Ren Yuan's hands were covered with his saliva. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hands, said there was no problem, and turned to go to another store.

Xi Yue knew nothing about it. He just felt that he hated Ren Yuan even more. He was a pretentious person, and there was always a sticky smell when he spoke to Chu Yun.

nausea.

Chu Yun was very happy that he had avoided the inspection. In the evening, Xi Yue made braised chicken wings with pancakes, which gave Chu Yun the illusion that this world was not the end of the world.

Today he also saw several dirty kids in the base sharing a piece of black bread. If ordinary people wanted to get food, they had to go out and open up wasteland and farm. The worst result of working hard for half a day was being eaten by alien species, and the best result was just barely enough to eat and feel full.

At this moment, Chu Yun found it a little difficult to swallow the fragrant braised chicken wings.

Xi Yue keenly noticed that the person opposite him had put down his chopsticks, and thought that the food he cooked was not to his taste, so he hurriedly asked.

"What's wrong? It doesn't taste good?"

"No, it's delicious. Thank you, Xi Yue, thank you for taking me in... and being so kind to me."

If it weren't for Xi Yue, he wouldn't be able to eat delicious meals or sleep on a soft bed. If he hadn't met Xi Yue, he might still be lying on the road, not knowing when he would be able to sneak into the base, and the mission would not have been completed so quickly.

Maybe it was because he saw and heard too much at the base today. Everyone was struggling to survive in the harsh environment, and Chu Yun felt a little inexplicably sad.

Chu Yun's words stirred up waves in Xi Yue's heart. Chu Yun said that he was very grateful to him. Xi Yue never asked for Chu Yun's gratitude, as long as Chu Yun was with him.

Xi Yue's ears turned slightly red. These words were quite corny. The little alien was really good at it.

Although he didn't know why Chu Yun suddenly said that, he didn't have that many thoughts in his mind. He just thought that Chu Yun didn't eat much.

He knew that alien species didn't need to eat, but Xi Yue always treated Chu Yun as a human.

"Alright, alright, thank you so much. I'll just eat more..."

Xi Yue pretended to be indifferent to cover up her shyness, and turned around to wash some fruit.

"If you don't want to eat, just eat some fruit. Eating so little will make people think I'm abusing you."

Chu Yun ate it obediently.

[Mission 2: Beat up humans with alien forms]

Chu Yun spat out a mouthful of watermelon.

"Slow down, slow down. Chew it slowly, understand? No one's competing with you, just spit it out."

Chu Yun subconsciously spat out the watermelon residue in his mouth and found that Xi Yue was catching it with his hand.

He showed no sign of disgust, patted Chu Yun on the back, then took the watermelon that Chu Yun had chewed and threw it away.

But Chu Yun had no time to think. The cold system prompt sound made Chu Yun's heart cold.

First, there was no way a human could be beaten by his weak little bacteria. Second, his alien form would be exposed to humans, and he would die. Finally, why would he want to beat people?!?

001 gave a vague explanation for this. The aliens in the text are meant to cause destruction and it is impossible for them to live happily in the base. This is to maintain their character.

Chu Yun reluctantly accepted this statement.

Chu Yun first set his target on Xi Yue who went to the kitchen to wash dishes. After all, he was only familiar with Xi Yue and had no reason to hit anyone else.

Xi Yue felt a pair of gazes staring at him while he was washing dishes. He turned around and saw the little alien moving towards the kitchen door.

Xi Yue thought he wanted to help him wash the dishes, so he frowned and angrily chased him away:

"Go away, don't make trouble."

How could Chu Yun possibly wash the dishes when he was around?

Chu Yun was angry: "I'm not here to cause trouble."

Xi Yue chuckled and continued to wash the dishes:

"So what are you doing? Bored?"

"Well, I want to talk to you."

Such blunt words made Xi Yue's face flush. What did this mean? Was he overthinking it or something? Why did she suddenly say she wanted to chat with him?

Xi Yue's heart was in a mess, and his hands moved a little harder, crushing a bowl with his bare hands.

Chu Yun: ...

Xi Yue threw the bowl into the trash can and continued to imagine. Wang Qi once said that love... the first step in love is chatting. Only by understanding each other can you know whether you are suitable to be together.

So... what was Chu Yun trying to do? Test his heart?

Xi Yue was a little nervous, afraid that he would be rejected because of his bad mouth and couldn't say anything pleasant.

"You...what do you want to tell me? Just tell me."

Chu Yun scratched his head as he looked at Xi Yue, who had become strangely shy.

001: Haha.

"I want to know, what would you do if... I mean if, someone beat you up?"

Xi Yue was standing guard with one ear and keeping watch with the other, and he only heard someone trying to beat him up.

"Who? Who dares to hit me?!"

Chu Yun pinched his temples. Xi Yue was hard of hearing.

"I mean, what would happen if you got hit?"

"No one can beat me. I'm the strongest in the base. Don't be afraid. I will protect you."

Chu Yun’s face was dazed: …it seemed as if he didn’t understand what people were saying.

"I mean if."

Xi Yue frowned, thinking that his strength was underestimated by Chu Yun. How could he be beaten? It was impossible to think with his butt.

"Then I will send this man to see God."

Now it was Chu Yun's turn to stutter and remain silent: "Oh...oh, I understand."

Xi Yue felt a little annoyed when he saw Chu Yun's shivering look. He was supposed to act gentle, but he scared Chu Yun. This might be a test from Chu Yun to see if he was really a gentle person.

Xi Yue quickly changed his words: "If someone hits me, I won't fight back. Even if I'm beaten to death, I will try my best to move the other person with my sincerity and make them show mercy."

Chu Yun: ...

001: ???

In the end, Chu Yun still chose Xi Yue as the target for beating. 001 said that they could do it in the dead of night, but Chu Yun felt that no one could sleep more soundly than Xi Yue.

Chu Yun washed up and lay down on the bed. Xi Yue fell asleep quickly and came to her side and hugged her.

If Xi Yue was sober, he would never dare to hug himself like this.

Chu Yun waited quietly for changes. He looked at the red moon in the sky. A faint white light flashed, and Chu Yun turned into a ball of bacteria.

He immediately looked at Xi Yue beside him. Xi Yue slept very uneasily because his arms were suddenly empty. 001 quickly stuffed a pillow into his arms, and his breathing gradually calmed down.

Chu Yun was so nervous that he almost died. He jumped and stood at the head of the bed, like an athlete diving, ready to jump down and give Xi Yue a serious blow in the face.

Chu Yun felt extremely condemned for being grateful to others during the day and doing bad things at night.

Let's get started.

"Xi Yue, I'm sorry..."

Chu Yun jumped down and brushed across Xi Yue's tall and straight nose, then collapsed on Xi Yue's face. He immediately stood up nimbly and jumped up and down. He had no hands or feet, so this was already Chu Yun's maximum strength.

Chu Yun's self-righteous, unilateral beating.

Xi Yue felt an itchy nose in his sleep, as if someone was teasing him with dogtail grass. He sensed something, opened his eyes, stood up, and grabbed the guy who was teasing him.

A pair of black eyes stared at him.

Chu Yun didn't know what to do. He didn't want Xi Yue to know his identity, didn't want Xi Yue to drive him away, and didn't want to leave the base.

So his mind suddenly went blank.

"You are sleepwalking... Go to sleep, dear... Go to sleep..."
