Chapter 38 The Beast Enters the Camp
The boy looked at Ai Zhe helplessly, his eyes full of helplessness, worried that he would be driven away.
At this time, Colonel Sting came over from the side.
"Colonel, have you completed the identity verification?"
Noson was still staring at the boy with sharp eyes, observing his every move.
"It's been checked."
Colonel Sting frowned slightly.
"Because the identities of most refugees cannot be traced now, many people joined this temporary camp midway, and there is a lack of complete records, so..."
He paused, looked at the boy again, and then added to Northam:
"According to several refugees, he just joined last week. When he first arrived, he was covered in wounds, looking like he had just survived a hunt by alien species."
When the boy heard this, he shrank his shoulders slightly, as if some frightening memories were brought back to him, and he unconsciously leaned back in his chair.
"They said he usually helps catch fish in the camp, and sometimes helps drive away small alien beasts."
Sting continued, his tone not being 100% certain, but to be honest, they were not so strict in checking the identities of other refugees.
"How were the results of the physical examination?"
Sting looked at the doctor again.
"Nothing serious, blood and mechanics are normal."
The doctor said as he flipped through the briefing in his hand.
"The physiological reaction is slightly stronger, but within the normal range."
"I'll have him participate in the unified refugee identity verification process later."
Sting added, motioning the boy to come in for an identity check.
After saying that, he went to deal with other matters.
Northen and Aizhe were also preparing to leave. After taking two steps, they looked back at the young man a few times.
Just as the two of them turned around.
The white-haired boy's eyes turned cold instantly.
The originally moist and gentle eyes were immediately covered with a shadow, filled with hellish hatred.
Staring at their backs intently.
*
At night, we began to arrange accommodation for these refugees.
Zeta built an additional camp area on the existing camp to accommodate the new arrivals.
A series of verification processes including inventory and polygraph testing began.
After verification, the teenager's identity was indeed correct.
No signs of identity fraud or hidden violations were found.
"And there haven't been any enemy allies trying to spy on us Zeta lately."
"He looks... in good physical condition."
"Let's observe for a while, and if it's appropriate... let him play a role, how about that?"
The boy squatted in the corner of a wall in the camp, listening to people's discussion about him.
He lowered his eyes and did not look up.
In the evening, it was time to divide the temporary residence.
The boy did not take the initiative to step forward, but sat in the corner, leaning against the edge of the broken wall, without looking up or saying a word.
Someone seemed to remember and gave him some food. The boy took it pitifully, buried his head and ate slowly.
Northen was originally distributing new clothes, and he was using his own exchange money to do so.
But this time he bypassed the boy.
The refugees were originally very happy, queuing up, talking and laughing.
The boy who didn't get any clothes didn't say anything, just lowered his head.
"Nosen, why don't you send it to him?"
Ai Zhe was a little confused.
Northen was a little angry and a little aggrieved when he was caught bypassing the boys.
He did bypass the boy.
When the boy heard their conversation, he seemed very scared. He quickly lowered his head and took a few more bites of food.
“I don’t want to post it.”
Northen turned his head away and spoke in a cold tone.
Northam is the one who pays for the exchange of coins and the decision-making power lies with Northam.
But Northam never excluded or treated anyone differently...
This was the first time he...
Ai Zhe sighed.
"Then... I'll pay him with exchange tokens and give him a new set of clothes?"
"As long as you're happy."
Northen's face was dark, and it was the first time that Aizhe saw him so cold.
The emerald eyes no longer looked at him with the same warmth and sparkle as before, but were a little cold and hard.
Although he was trying his best to appear polite and hold back his anger.
But this was the first time he couldn't control his anger, and his emotions were clearly written on his face.
Northam looked very angry, and I don't know why he was unhappy.
The boy squatted in the corner, quietly raised his head to look at them, then quickly lowered his head again.
"Hey." Ai Zhe hit Northen's shoulder.
This guy has never been like this before.
"I don't hate this person, nor do I discriminate against anyone."
"I discovered that he had the intention to harass you, didn't you notice?"
"I can see it clearly."
Seeing that Aizhe didn't say anything, Northen used his last bit of strength to regain his sanity.
"Yes, I know I am nothing. What I say is useless."
"I'm not yours, so I certainly have no right to stop anyone from getting close to you."
"I'm a fool. Yes, I'm thick-skinned and I have no shame."
"I just care about you. I instinctively feel threatened by anyone who comes close to you. But all my actions, in your eyes, are just thick-skinned."
This was the first time that Northen acted like this. He was extremely serious, his eyes no longer smiling, and he wanted to leave.
There was no one around, so Ai Zhe grabbed his shoulder.
It was the first time he saw Northam so angry.
Northen's eyes were red, and he was trying to suppress his anger, his whole face was tense.
This is the first time he has done this.
Aizhe grabbed his shoulders again, but this time, Northen didn't hug him happily like before.
Seeing that Ai Zhe didn't say a word, Northen seemed a little disappointed.
Ai Zhe's hand was shaken away.
He only left Ai Zhe with his back, and his dark golden curly hair looked messy and stiff.
It was like accepting their fate, they were teammates after all.
Yes, they are indeed just teammates.
Northen turned around and walked away quickly, wanting to leave the scene quickly.
In the eyes of men, what are they if not teammates?
He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the dull pain in his chest that could have knocked him down in an instant.
The boy was squatting in the corner eating, he hadn't changed into clean clothes yet, and was looking at this place secretly.
Ai Zhe didn't follow either.
As soon as he turned around, the boy immediately lowered his head and continued eating his food.
Seeing Ai Zhe returning to the house, he put down the food and followed him immediately.
"Why are you following me? The refugees are temporarily placed in tents next to the camp. We will separate you and arrange accommodation for you later."
Seeing the boy following him, Ai Zhe felt something was strange.
The boy looked at him without saying a word. Ai Zhe was obviously in a bad mood.
The man lowered his head and looked at the ground, obviously distracted.
Where the man couldn't see, the boy stared at the man with a focused, even terrifying look.
But soon a sense of pride and 100% success emerged, as if he had grasped the victory.
With a frightening, creepy feeling of possession.
"If you want to shower, you can go to the public men's bathroom in this camp."
Looking at the young man twisting his fingers, his clothes still torn, he couldn't bear to chase him away.
It does look pitiful.
"You wait."
Ai Zhe went into the house and took out one of his old clothes.
"You should be able to wear this."
Ai Zhe handed him the clothes.
"Thank you, sir."
The boy's eyes were bright. He lowered his head and looked up quietly.
In the moonlight, the golden eyes shone a little, hiding the true cautious emotions.
Holding this dress tightly, I felt like I had obtained the most precious treasure in the world.
A light of joy, attachment, and some obsession emerged from his eyes.
The intertwined joy and obsession seemed a little terrifying.
