“You don’t have to give me an answer now. You can consider it.”
Feng Feng reminded him.
“That works too.”
Zhou Jing nodded and planned to go back and think about it.
He glanced at the white coats who were putting away their equipment and asked, “So, what do we do next?”
“The test is over. On the backend, we will approve your information. After the documents are produced, the registration will be completed… During this period, you will have to live in the Supers Bureau. Of course, we will provide you with food and accommodation.”
After saying that, Feng Feng made an inviting gesture and led the way.
“Come with me. I’ll show you to your room.”
Zhou Jing had no objections and followed Feng Feng
His Astral Travel Interface was still on cooldown, so there was nothing else to do for the time being. Moreover, there was no one waiting for him in his lousy rental house either. He had turned off the water and electricity when he went out, so it did not matter if he did not return for three days.
They walked around the building and arrived at a floor that looked like a hotel lobby. This was the living area.
The Supers Bureau had set up a living area and provided temporary dormitories for Supers. However, unless there were certain activities, not many people would stay there. Usually, only the new Awakened who needed to be observed for three days would stay there temporarily.
Arriving at the door of a room, Feng Feng asked Zhou Jing to record his facial recognition, fingerprints, and other parameters, before opening the door. Inside was a single room in a well-maintained environment.
“This is your residence for the next three days. Your fingerprints can unlock the door. If you want to eat anything, you can use the internal line to call the kitchen to deliver food, or go straight to the canteen in the living area to eat.”
“I understand.” Zhou Jing nodded.
“Then you should rest first. I still have to help you with some procedures. I’ll look for you tomorrow.” Feng Feng’s attitude was kind.
“Alright, go ahead.”
“Hmm… Although I don’t think you really need it, I still have to remind you not to use your abilities casually.”
Feng Feng smiled before he left the room.
Only then did Zhou Jing carefully size up the room.
If he was not wrong, there would be a lot of cameras hidden here…
Zhou Jing smacked his lips, but he did not really mind.
In any case, he did not plan to do anything for the next three days. He just wanted to pretend to be a normal Awakened and show his harmonious side to prevent any twists and turns from happening.
He turned on the television and checked the library. He realized that there were many programs downloaded, including many classic battles of the Super League.
“Hey, let’s watch the competition league.”
Zhou Jing lay on the bed and started to excitedly watch the battles, waiting for the time to pass.
On the other side, in the Interstellar Immigration Bureau, West Sea City branch.
In the aisle beside the work desk, Cheng Li was holding a thermos cup and chatting with a few colleagues, treating their recent visits as gossip
“A few days ago, I visited a forced immigrant. His family is really strange. They actually tied up the immigrant and wanted to secretly transfer money to bribe me to skip the interview and directly pass the evaluation. I was so angry that I wanted to curse on the spot… With the little money he bribed, is it even worth it for me to lose my job?” Someone snorted.
Another person spoke up, his tone helpless. “You’re not bad. At least you can still communicate with them. I met a visitor the day before yesterday. He deliberately knocked himself out with a concussion and fainted in the hospital. He thought that he could escape from the forced immigration this way. When he wakes up, I’ll have to go again. He’s just causing me trouble…”
“This is nothing. A few days ago, a subject he was visiting resisted violently and wanted to use a knife to cut me. Fortunately, the bodyguard subdued him. I criticized him on the spot and told him to wait to enter the jail cells in the immigrant spaceship.” Someone else indignantly spoke out. “By the way, Cheng Li, has your visit been successful recently?”
A colleague turned to talk to Cheng Li.
“I’m fine. Everything went quite smoothly.”
Cheng Li thought of Zhou Jing, who had visited yesterday, and casually said, “The smoothest thing was yesterday morning. I visited a young man, and he kept brushing off my questions with superficial answers. But this is good too. As long as they cooperate, it’s enough. It saved me a lot of trouble… But what’s strange is that the bodyguard who went with me actually said that the young man was very dangerous.”
“Huh? And?”
Cheng Li shrugged, “There’s no ‘And’. That young man’s file is too clean. He’s just an ordinary person. That bodyguard must have made a mistake, so I couldn’t be bothered to add this to the evaluation summary.”
At this moment, a notification sound came from Cheng Li’s desk. This was the latest assessment from the immigration bureau.
Cheng Li turned her head and took a look before ignoring it in favor of continuing her chats with her colleagues.
After chatting for a while, her colleagues finally dispersed and went back to work.
Only then did Cheng Li return to her seat and reluctantly start working. She opened the files of the people she had visited so far.
She could not be bothered to look at the assessment results carefully. She just needed to take a casual glance, not stay in a file for more than five seconds.
Files flashed past one after another. Cheng Li held her chin and looked at them in boredom.
She numbly switched to the next file. Suddenly, there was a ping, and a notification page popped up on the screen.
[This file has been handed over to the Supernatural Bureau. It will be taken over by higher-level personnel.)
(You are not authorized to access this file.]
Cheng Li was taken aback.
Only then did she perk up and realize that all the information in the file had been hidden. She sifted through the other files and secretly recalled who was missing. Soon, she had a result.
“It’s that young man called Zhou Jing from yesterday morning?” Cheng Li’s eyes widened in confusion.
Yesterday, she could still access the file normally. That person’s information was only that of an ordinary person.
In just a day, he became a Super!?
Cheng Li’s expression was complicated.
She wasn’t even a Super yet, even after so long…
Yesterday, he was still an ordinary person who had to obediently cooperate with the interview, but today, he had become a Super… This feeling was like overlooking a treasure hidden in a pile of trash and only realizing it later.
… Although this comparison was not very accurate, she did have a similar feeling.
“Tsk.”
Cheng Li looked at the file on the screen that she had no access to with a depressed expression.
Although she was unwilling to deal with the files, when she realized that one of the files had become inaccessible, she could not help but feel slightly awkward and inexplicably annoyed.
The sky gradually darkened.
Zhou Jing watched the show in his room for the entire day before he felt a little hungry.
“Should I order takeout or go out… let’s go out and eat. It’s a good opportunity to visit the Supernatural Bureau.”
He turned off the television, pushed open the door, and walked out of the room. He followed the directions to the canteen in the dormitory area.
The cafeteria was empty, and only one person was eating in his seat.
Zhou Jing recognized him at a glance. It was Zhao He, whom he had met once in the lounge.
Zhao He also noticed that someone was coming. He looked up but did not recognize Zhou Jing, whom he had met before.
“Shall we eat together?”
Zhao He took the initiative to speak.
Zhou Jing was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he did not refuse. He took the food and sat opposite Zhao He.
The two of them briefly introduced themselves and chatted casually, confirming that the other party was a new Awakened.
Zhao He’s tone became warmer as he smiled.
“What’s your ability? How’s the potential assessment?”
“Physical strengthening, physical fitness surpassing ordinary people, and a potential of C. What about you?” Zhou Jing did not hide anything. He also wanted to communicate with Supers. Besides, there was nothing to hide about such a common ability as physical strengthening.
Zhao He nodded and paused for a moment before saying
“I have an energy release type superpower. I can release high-pressure water waves. My potential is estimated to be A…”
“So you can spray water?” Zhou Jing was curious.
IIII
Zhao He lowered his head and ate a mouthful of food without answering.
Zhou Jing scratched his chin and said, “Speaking of which, when I was testing my abilities, someone seemed to have temporarily triggered the alarm. Was that
you?”
“A small mistake,” Zhao He replied indifferently. He suddenly stood up and said, “I’m full. I’ll leave first.”
With that, he left without waiting for Zhou Jing’s reply.
Zhou Jing was left confused.
“What’s this? He was obviously the one who asked me to sit down and eat, but he left after just a few words?”
“But what I said just now shouldn’t be considered offending him right…”
“Forget it, if he doesn’t want to talk, so be it. This person doesn’t feel too easy to get along with.”
Zhou Jing shook his head and ate on his own.
“Ding Ling Ling…”
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang.
He took it out and saw that it was a call from Li Xiaoyin.
“Why are you looking for me now…”
Zhou Jing was a little puzzled and suspicious.
The moment he picked up the call, Li Xiaoyin’s loud voice came from the other end. Just by listening to her voice, he could almost see her shocked expression.
“Jingjing! What happened?! Your father said that you were forced to emigrate?!”
