"Yes, that's right. Generally, when hunting mutant animals, whoever puts in the most effort will get the crystal core and mutant animal meat. But the meat of this insect should not be eaten. You just need to keep the crystal core." Chai Guanfeng looked at Chen Wan with shining eyes. He didn't expect Wei Siyu's friend to be so powerful.
"Okay, then I won't be polite. I'm afraid the sticky liquid on the road will corrode the tires. Why don't we ask the water-based psychics to help clean the road so that we can return to the base earlier." Chen Wan put away the crystal core and said with a smile.
"Okay." Chai Guanfeng responded with a smile, then turned to the water-based psychics and said, "Please help clear the road. We must get back to District One before dark to be safe."
The few psychics finally recovered from their shock and went to the front to help the soldiers deal with the caterpillar corpses.
The crowd was no longer so tense, and some people in the back had already started whispering.
"Oh my god, that female alpha just now was amazing. It's like she single-handedly defeated a level 3 mutant animal. What level of skill does that take?"
"Amazing! In the past, to kill a level three mutant animal, all the psychics plus the soldiers had to fire bullets at it. Now, this woman can do it all by herself. Psychic psychics are truly terrifying."
"There are more and more powerful psychics in our first district, and Chen Wan is pretty. Just wait and see. When she returns this time, there might be quite a few Omegas and Betas in the base who will take a fancy to her."
"Of course. He's got talent and a pretty face. Who wouldn't like him?"
Ke Qing also recovered from the shock just now. She thought that Chen Wan must be very powerful to be able to make decisions among people with special abilities like Shi Tou. However, she did not expect Chen Wan to be so powerful that he could easily control hundreds of zombies to kill mutant animals. This was much stronger than Shi Tou's power-based ability.
She listened to the voices behind her discussing Chen Wan's strength, and the corners of Ke Qing's lips curled up slightly. At least she was better than those people behind her who didn't know Chen Wan.
Chen Wan and others were waiting for the road ahead to be cleared. She glanced and saw Liuzi. She had some impression of this soldier. He was one of the few good people in the Funan City base.
Chen Wan didn't expect him to be alive, so he smiled and greeted him, "You're in District 1 too?"
Liuzi looked around before confirming that Chen Wan was talking to him. His face flushed, and he quickly replied, "Zhao Lei and I drove all the way to fight zombies and finally arrived at the first district. How are you guys? Are you all okay?"
”
"It's pretty good, but the process was a bit bumpy. We were even blocked by heavy snow in Beijing for three months. But at least we're alive." Chen Wan replied with a smile.
Liuzi nodded heavily: "Yes, it's good to be alive."
After waiting for about twenty minutes, the road ahead was cleared, and Chen Wan and the others got on the bus. They walked in order, with Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin at the back. They were not in a hurry and slowly moved towards the door. Ke Qing was getting on the bus, and she caught sight of Chen Wan out of the corner of her eye. Her feet slipped and she fell towards Chen Wan.
Chen Wan subconsciously supported Ke Qing and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy." Ke Qing looked at Chen Wan and thanked him, leaning towards Chen Wan's arms.
Of course Chen Wan felt it too, and Jiang Yanxin was watching her from the side, so she could feel the cold wind blowing. In order to avoid being punished, Chen Wan hurriedly shouted inside: "Omega and Beta, come out and help, Keqing is not feeling well.
When Huang Lili and Qi Jing heard what Chen Wan said, they hurried over to help the person. After Chen Wan pushed the person out, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Yanxin with some grievance, and then Jiang Yanxin glared at him.
Jiang Yanxin ignored Chen Wan and got into the car first. Chen Wan curled his lips. It was not her fault. Ke Qing should have been standing firmly, but who would have thought that she would fall backwards on the steps, and happened to be coming towards him.
Chen Wan looked at Shi Tou, shook his head and sighed. This Ke Qing was no simple person. Could it be that a straight man like Shi Tou had already taken the bait?
Shi Tou looked puzzled by her gaze, so he got into the car and closed the door. He sat next to Ke Qing as usual, but since there were two Omegas, Qi Jing and Huang Lili, next to Ke Qing, Shi Tou was some distance away from her.
Keqing bit her lip and looked a little pale, so Qi Jing asked her to drink more water to calm down.
Keqing gritted her teeth lightly, without showing much expression on her face. After all, she was an actress, so she did have some acting skills.
Keqing didn't expect that Chen Wan would hide in the end and even called Omega to help her avoid suspicion. She felt a little unconvinced, but looking at Chen Wan's look and his reaction when he just rejected her, Keqing felt that Chen Wan was not an easy person to deal with. It would be much more difficult for her to take action against Chen Wan, so she still needed Shi Tou for the time being.
Chen Wan got in the car and sat next to Jiang Yanxin, pulling the corner of Jiang Yanxin's clothes from time to time. Jiang Yanxin glanced at her and ignored her. Chen Wan pouted in grievance, but she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in the car.
Instead of explaining it to myself directly, I had to sit aside and prepare to explain it to Jiang Yanxin after returning to the first district.
After running all the way, the level 3 mutant animal that Chen Wan wanted did not appear again. Chen Wan and his friends successfully returned to the base in the first district at around six o'clock.
This time when getting off the car, Chen Wan learned his lesson and stayed eight feet away from Ke Qing, following Jiang Yanxin obediently. They went to the service area to confirm the points they each got. Chen Wan killed a level three mutant animal and got 100 points. The rest of the participants in the action got 30 points each. In the base, 1 point can be exchanged for a steamed bun. Earning 100 points for one mission is already a lot.
After returning the equipment, Chen Wan and the others also needed to return their clothes after washing them.
Chen Wan and the others were preparing to go back to rest, and then they found out that Keqing's accommodation had not been arranged yet.
Chen Wan looked over to a nearby location and saw Commander Chai leading his men to assign housing to the rescued Omegas. He looked at Keqing and said, "Keqing, Commander Chai is assigning housing. You should come over too. They'll assign you an apartment."
What Chen Wan implied was that they had made an exception by bringing her back, and they didn't want to have any close relationship with her in the future.
But Ke Qing didn't move. Her eyes turned red before she spoke. She sniffed and looked at Chen Wan, "I don't want to be with them. Can I live with you? Don't worry, I can do housework and I'm not spoiled. Can you let me stay with you?"
Chen Wan's heart was alarmed. He was talking to you guys before, so how come he was talking to himself later?
Chen Wan roared in her heart, hoping that this elder sister would shut up immediately, otherwise she would be in trouble when she returned.
"No, Keqing, our rooms have all been arranged. There are no vacancies. The same goes for Wei Siyu and the others. Anyway, we are already in District 1. It's actually the same no matter where we live. It's very safe." Chen Wan politely declined.
Ke Qing's tears welled up in her eyes. With red eyes and sniffling, she looked at Chen Wan and said, "I know. I've caused you trouble. I'm leaving now."
Chen Wan secretly complained. "Could this elder sister please stop talking nonsense? Is this acting or real?" "What do you mean by causing trouble for her? She obviously didn't care about Keqing, right?" "It was Shitou who saved Keqing, she couldn't take the blame."
Chen Wan didn't buy it, and he wouldn't change his mind just because Keqing was crying. It was obvious that this elder sister was not someone to be trifled with, so he should just stay away from her to avoid getting into trouble.
Keqing's eyes were filled with tears. She kept crying and looking at Chen Wan, but Chen Wan didn't say anything.
Qing was about to give up acting and turned around to take a step forward when Shitou couldn't help but speak.
"Chen Wan, why don't we let her come with us?" Shi Tou couldn't bear to see Ke Qing crying like this, so he hurriedly said.
Chen Wan looked at Wei Siyu: "Is there any room over there?"
Wei Siyu didn't want Keqing to join her either, so she coughed lightly and said, "There's no room left. The children have a suite, and the remaining suite is for Jin Can and me, Shitou has his own room, and Huang Lili has hers. There are no other rooms left."
Shi Tou looked at Wei Siyu, confused as to why everyone was so unwilling to accept this helpless girl. His chest heaved a few times as he spoke, "Then let her sleep in my room. I'll just sleep on the floor. She's just been through something like this, so she must be feeling very insecure. We can't just leave her like this."
Since Shitou had said so, Wei Siyu had no choice but to nod. If she didn't, it would hurt the friendship between friends. "That's fine too. Ask them if they are willing."
Wei Siyu always felt that what Keqing said today, and the fact that she fell towards Chen Wan when getting in the car just now, were all directed at Chen Wan. She was afraid that her friend would be hurt.
Shi Tou hurried over and asked Ke Qing, "Would you like to stay in my room first? Don't worry, I don't have any other intentions. You move in, and I'll sleep on the sofa in the living room."
Keqing covered her face and sobbed a few times, then leaned into Shitou's arms and cried softly.
Chen Wan and the others looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. She blinked at Wei Siyu, and Wei Siyu nodded to show that she understood.
"Now that we've made the assignment, let's all go back and rest today and get together for dinner tomorrow." Chen Wan said with a smile.
"Then come to our place tomorrow and we will prepare." Wei Siyu said with a smile.
"Okay, then let's go there together for lunch tomorrow at noon." Everyone walked back while talking and laughing.
Shitou supported Keqing, who was a little exhausted, and walked back to comfort her: "Don't take it to heart. What Chen Wan said is also true. The room is indeed full, but don't worry, I won't leave you without a place to stay."
Keqing leaned against the stone and sniffed, "Shitou, thank you so much, you are such a nice person."
She wiped her tears as she spoke, a blush appearing on the side of her face, "Besides, it's okay if you don't sleep in the living room. I don't mind joining you."
Shitou's face turned red, and his voice became much higher: "How can that be possible? You are a good girl. I am different from those alphas."
"I know you are the most special to me."
Keqing sniffed and spoke with a smile through her tears.
Wei Siyu and the other two who were walking in front were also discussing in a low voice.
"Could it be that Shi Tou really likes Ke Qing? Why do I feel like she wanted to hook Chen Wan today, but Chen Wan didn't take the bait?" Jin Can said in a low voice.
"Although it's not nice to talk about others behind their backs, I feel the same way. This Keqing tea seems a bit strong. I don't know if what she said is true or acting. After all, she was an actor before." Huang Lili whispered.
Wei Siyu also nodded. "Everyone, please keep an eye on her. She's just an ordinary Omega, so she probably won't cause any big trouble. I'll find a chance to talk to Shi Tomorrow and clear things up so he doesn't get confused."
"Yeah." Jin Can nodded heavily.
Keqing leaned against a rock, slowly walking back. District One symbolized freedom. She no longer had to be treated like a toy by the boss. However, if she wanted to live comfortably in District One, she needed to find a strong partner. Chen Wan hadn't taken the bait, but she wasn't afraid. Now that she could live with them, she would always have a chance to be alone with him. She had just heard that Chen Wan and the others were having dinner together tomorrow. Wasn't this the perfect opportunity?!
