When Xin'er came out of the space, it was already afternoon. Although many people had left the main store, it still felt very crowded.
As soon as she reached the store entrance, Leng Luo pounced on her.
"Xin'er!"
Xin'er raised her hand to keep the person an arm's length away, "When did you get here?"
They dislike excessive physical contact with others.
Leng Luo knew her temperament and consciously refrained from trying to get closer to her.
"I arrived at noon and have been waiting for you for quite a while."
Xin'er led her to the office on the third floor of the supermarket. "Yeah, I was busy just now."
Without her even asking, Leng Luo was already chattering away, telling her story on her own.
"Your ability-awakening potion has caused quite a stir. I'm here on my old man's orders to see what's going on."
"I knew you wouldn't play games, and sure enough, you really meant it."
"I've sent all my people to line up to pay the fees."
"By the way, did you know that my family is moving into the base?"
When the topic shifted to something that interested Xin'er, she finally asked a question.
Why the sudden decision to move in?
The two arrived at the office and sat down. Leng Luo lazily slumped onto the desk, waving her hand listlessly.
"Well, it's because the base talked to the old man."
Her eyes held a hint of resentment, clearly indicating her dissatisfaction with the outcome.
"The old man said the base has the capability, and being with the base is a good choice."
"Not only us, but the Mu family as well, all have to move here. The base will send people to escort them."
"They call it escorting, but it's really just a disguised form of transporting goods."
As Xin'er listened, she took out a teapot from her spatial storage and brewed some tea.
With her supermarket at the base, there won't be a shortage of supplies. Now that there are also power-awakening potions, it's no exaggeration to say that the authorities will definitely recognize people with superpowers in the future.
It would certainly not be a wise choice for either of them not to enter the base at this time.
It can only be said that the base offered a way out, and everyone accepted it, resulting in a happy ending for all.
Xin'er simply said, "It's good to join the base."
Leng Luo sat up straight. "Since you've said that, it must be right, right? It just means we won't be as free in the future."
Xin'er poured her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her.
"There are gains and losses in everything, these are all minor issues."
Leng Luo smiled and said, "Sister, the way you talk gives off a kind of ethereal feeling that you've lived for hundreds of years and are just short of attaining enlightenment and ascending to heaven—so fairy-like, like a fairy sister."
Xin'er raised an eyebrow slightly, "I'll take that as a compliment."
As the two chatted, a carrier pigeon returned with news. Carl and the others were busy, so Xin'er checked the message herself.
It was Qin Siye who sent the news from Nanshi. They had investigated the base and found that the administrators of the Nanshi base were secretly conducting human experiments.
Those high-ranking officials monopolized the relief supplies that should have belonged to everyone, and then used the supplies to sell at high prices to curry favor with others.
The fresh vegetables were grown by wood-type ability users.
The base uses various methods, including violent suppression and threats against relatives, to imprison wood-type and water-type ability users and use them as slaves.
The survivors in the base suffered even more, with people dying of hunger and disease almost every day.
Xin'er frowned as she looked at the message on the note.
Seeing this, Leng Luo said, "They should be almost done queuing up. I need to go check on them."
"good."
"If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know. Although my superpowers aren't that great, I still have the Leng family."
As Leng Luo spoke, she jokingly added,
"I trust my dad, and I'd be happy to have his help."
Xin'er smiled gently, not offended by her words. She liked being with Leng Luo, not only because he was more relaxed and at ease in front of her, but also because he was intelligent and knew how to maintain proper boundaries.
"I won't hesitate to ask if I need it."
The two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.
As soon as Leng Luo left, Xin'er picked up a pen and wrote a reply, which basically told Qin Siye and Qian Leduo to go directly back to Anshi and not to worry about the affairs in Nanshi.
At the same time, she also sent a copy of the news from Nanshi to Lu Zheng at the Xinghuo Base.
How to handle it is up to Lu Zheng.
Over the next few days, things gradually stabilized in the store, and it seemed that everyone who could produce 10,000 crystal cores had been completely taken advantage of.
With the combined sales of the three supermarkets, the crystal cores in Xin'er's space had piled up into a small mountain.
More people are going out of the base every day, and everyone's enthusiasm for hunting zombies and acquiring crystal cores is higher than ever before.
All existing crystal cores are recharged into the space and converted into points.
With points surpassing 10 million, we're one step closer to our 100 million goal.
I believe that once the supermarkets at other bases open, her points will increase even more rapidly.
After recharging the points, the system Xiao You on the second-floor door panel was upgraded again, with much richer expressions and more human-like speech.
"Dear Master, Little You has completed her upgrade!"
Xin'er leaned against the shelf, tossing the strategy system in her hand, and asked casually with little interest:
"So, now you know where Strategy System 777 came from?"
o(╥﹏╥)o
"I'm sorry, Master, Xiao You did not find any information related to Strategy System 777."
Xin'er looked disgusted. "Still useless."
Xiao You's tone was somewhat anxious, as if she was about to cry.
“Master, Xiao You is not a waste. Although Xiao You has not found any information about the Strategy System 777, Xiao You can now devour and merge other systems to find the answer.”
