Chapter 32 Chunxiu's Regret
"Yeah, haven't you been vying to register? I'm going to be kind this time and let these people be yours."
Chunxiu is a complete face control. Although she is required to register all the newcomers, she can't bear to stare at their pockmarked and imperial-style faces.
There are too many people working hard for the deputy base commander, so there is no shortage of these five people anyway.
Thinking this in her mind, Chunxiu turned her head and drove the person away with her actions.
Shocked by the ugliness, she didn't notice that this time Jiang Kai didn't lead the newcomers in her direction, but was getting closer and closer to Chen Xue.
Chunxiu's attitude did not anger Chen Xue. On the contrary, she was very happy.
Ten days ago, she was appointed by the base commander to take up the position of city entry registrar, but so many days have passed and not a single person has registered under her.
The blank form on the paper had not changed for several days and was almost covered with dust, which showed that Deputy Base Commander Zhang Jun had caused great harm to the base and his influence had penetrated to such an extent.
Creepy.
The rival's concession rekindled Chen Xue's enthusiasm for work. She wasn't actually the base commander's confidant, but the commander was kind enough to give her this job, which paid well and didn't require her to achieve anything.
Chen Xue didn't want to let down such a good base commander, so she pulled out a pen and took the initiative to call Qin Simu, who was standing in front, to come over.
"Hey, newcomers, come and register with me."
The ugly square face and disgusting pockmarks were getting closer and closer to her. Chen Xue didn't think they were ugly at all. Instead, they seemed kind and cute.
These are her first customers.
Qin Simu, perceptive, noticed the undercurrent between the two women at the window and asked in a gruff voice, "Auntie, please register with my father first. Can I sit on that chair over there?"
The latter sentence was what Qin Simu was asking Chen Xue.
It was obvious that there was an old man with difficulty walking in their team.
Chen Xue was stunned for a moment, then realized that the man was talking to her and agreed with a smile.
"Of course, go sit down."
A sharp female voice rang out from the side, sounding extremely sarcastic and harsh: "No! You, a bunch of misfits, still want to sit in the VIP chairs?"
In fact, the place was originally intended for the new residents of the base to rest, but Chunxiu was not happy about it. She believed that such a good location should be reserved for the next batch of new residents, and ugly people were not worthy of sitting there.
Chen Xue knew that Chunxiu was the deputy base commander Zhang Jun's person, and the entire [Residential Center] and [Mission Center] were under his control. She did not dare to openly contradict Chunxiu.
He handed over the two small stools stacked at his feet and smiled awkwardly: "Brother, let your family sit."
Qin Simu took the stool, responded, and said nothing more.
The registration information for ordinary people is very simple. They only need to tell their name, age, permanent residence before the end of the world, and the shelters they have visited.
The last person to register was Qin Simu. He did not rush to reveal his personal information, but first confirmed with Chen Xue where they would go after registration.
Chunxiu, who was doing nothing and staring outside, sneered when she heard the square-faced man's question, and glanced at him with disdain, as if he were trash.
"Just you? Where else can you go except letting the little beggar take you to the slums?"
Qin Simu was not affected by Chunxiu's words. He treated her as an unimportant and transparent person. He just wanted to know Chen Xue's answer.
From what we can see now, as long as the short-haired woman is willing to tell them, it is most likely the truth.
Chen Xue put down her pen and raised her head, attracted by the man's deep eyes. His bright eyes were totally inconsistent with his rough square face, which gave a sense of disharmony and comedy.
She would not look down on others like Chunxiu did. Chen Xue was just an ordinary person from the bottom of society, with no one to rely on and no special abilities. She was just lucky enough to meet the base commander and got this job that most people envied.
So when Qin Simu asked her, Chen Xue tried to repeat everything she knew as objectively and in detail as possible, and briefly described all the possible destinations of ordinary people and people with special abilities.
Although in her subconscious, she also felt that there were no people with special abilities among this group of people.
After getting the answer he wanted, Qin Simu slowly spoke of his ice-based abilities.
"What? Impossible! How can you, an ugly freak, be a psychic? You must be lying. The punishment for impersonating a psychic at Dawn Base is very severe. I'm going to report you!"
Chunxiu reacted violently, stood up, slammed the table, and glared at Qin Simu angrily.
Even someone like her with a delicate figure and appearance can't awaken her superpowers, so why can this man do it?
It’s fake, it must be fake.
She felt that Qin Simu just wanted to disgust her and made up such a huge lie.
Just as he was about to take out his intercom to notify the base soldiers to come over and arrest him, he saw that a crystal clear ice cube actually appeared in the palm of the man's hand, and it seemed to be shining with transparent light.
The chair at her feet was affected by the sudden gravity and made a rustling sound. Chunxiu sat down on the chair with her legs trembling. Her heart was beating so hard that she wished she could beat herself to death for her arrogant shouting just now.
Deputy base director Zhang Jun specifically sent someone to warn her that she must not miss any people with special abilities during the registration process, otherwise she would bear the consequences.
Even though her brother was a favorite of the deputy base commander and a second-level psychic, he was unable to plead for her.
It’s over…
Chunxiu quickly opened the drawer and hurriedly took out a pack of braised beef instant noodles from it, and handed it over in a flattering manner, using the most precious food in the apocalypse to express her apology.
The square-faced man had a stern expression and refused to accept her flattery.
Her palms were already beginning to sweat, and Chunxiu smiled even more attentively. She turned around and handed the instant noodles to Lin Luyan. She heard the man calling the woman "wife" and hoped that the pockmarked woman would be sensible and accept the food. She realized that her status was much higher than Chunxiu next door, so she chose to let her register again.
People with special abilities are treated differently from ordinary people. Ordinary people can hire guides like Jiang Kai for a fee, while people with special abilities can enjoy the guidance services carefully arranged by the city registrar for free.
If Zhang Jun's men saw Chen Xue leading the new residents around, Chunxiu would end up in a terrible situation.
Lin Luyan's character setting is the wife of a man with superpowers. She is an ordinary person with ugly appearance. In order to hide her edge, she cannot reject Chunxiu directly, which would be inconsistent with her character image.
Her slender hand paused in mid-air, her expression very embarrassed, implying that Chunxiu couldn't make the decision herself and had to listen to her man. While she wasn't paying attention, she signaled Qin Simu with her eyes to refuse.
The two have been together for so long that they have a tacit understanding with each other. With just a glance, they can understand what the other wants to do next.
Qin Simu pretended to have a very bad temper. He was very dissatisfied with Chunxiu's previous personal attacks and resolutely looked down on the instant noodle olive branch she threw out.
