C1736 Conversation
1Before Zhou Yi and the others could come up with a suitable answer in the room, they heard the sound of a lock being unlocked outside the door.
The door opened and Qin Long walked in.
Two people followed behind him, carrying two boxes in their arms.
"This time, only your small team has performed the best. I've already reported this to the higher-ups. Tomorrow morning, they will personally send someone over to reward you."Qin Long waved his hand with a smile. The two men placed the box in front of Zhou Yi and the others.
Zhou Yi glanced around and saw two boxes of mineral water.
"Come, you're all thirsty. Drink some water first."Qin Long said.
Zhou Yi shook his head. "We just want to have a good rest. I wonder if we can find a bigger dormitory."
There were eight of them, and there were only four beds.So he couldn't rest at all.
Qin Long patted his head. "Look at my head. It's already early in the morning. I should find a place for everyone to rest."
As he spoke, he turned to the two lackeys behind him and said, "The two of you, clean up the big dormitory upstairs and bring them up to rest later."
The two lackeys nodded and left.
But Qin Long had no intention of leaving. He pulled out a chair and sat down.
He didn't say anything, neither did Zhou Yi and the others.
Zhou Yi simply hated him, while the others were still thinking about what Zhou Yi had said.
The atmosphere became a little awkward.
But Qin Long was the one who broke the awkward silence. "You've brought honor to our Hua State Peoples. You're the best of the best, not to mention the Hua State Peoples."
Zhou Yi replied, "You flatter me.""We just want to return home safely."
Qin Long laughed dryly. "Look where you're talking about. We're only here for three weeks of training. As long as you graduate with outstanding results, we'll send you home safely."
"What about them?"Xiao La couldn't help but ask.
Qin Long raised an eyebrow. "Are you talking about those students who were still sleeping tonight?"
Xiao La nodded.
Qin Long laughed in a relaxed manner. "It's just that they can't go back for the time being. We'll have to go through another round of training before we can let them go."
"Oh!"Xiao La acknowledged.
Qin Long continued, "That's why you're the best. There's no need to wait another three weeks. You can leave tomorrow morning."
Xiao La nodded in agreement.
But there was no reaction from the others. For Qin Long, this wasn't normal at all.
If a normal student were to hear that they were leaving tomorrow, they would at least be happy to say something.
However, they did not look happy at all. In fact, all of this seemed to be part of their plan.
Logically speaking, they wouldn't know.
They could only tell them the truth after they took the Esper medicine or were injected with it.
"Are you not happy when you hear that we are going home?"Qin Long pretended to be surprised.
Only then did he see the others looking at each other. He forced a smile and said, "Yes, we can go home tomorrow. That's great."
Zhou Yi sighed in his heart. With his acting skills, he would be discovered in minutes.
Sure enough, Qin Long looked at everyone with a doubtful expression. Finally, his eyes fell on Zhou Yi. "Xu Heng, what's going on with you guys? Don't tell me you're not happy to come home tomorrow?"
Everyone was shocked, but it was Zhou Yi instead. He had a calm expression on his face. "Wherever we go, it will be our home. So there's no difference whether we go back or not. There's no such thing as being happy or not."
This time, everyone understood what he meant. Thus, Xiao La hurriedly said, "Isn't that so? My grandfather doesn't think much of me when I go home. It doesn't matter if I go back or not."
"I've been an orphan since I was a child. I might as well stay here instead of going home. It would be more lively and fun if we all gathered together."
"Yeah, yeah. My dad used to beat me up every time he saw me.""Because I don't go to school properly. I only know how to punch all day."
Everyone started talking at once.
Qin Long couldn't help but laugh. "So that's how it is!"
Then he got up and took a few bottles of water from the box and handed one to each of them.
The water was already in front of them. It would be rude not to take it, so they had no choice but to take the water bottle.
Qin Long unscrewed the cap of the bottle in his hand and took a sip. "Come on, have a drink. You've been busy all night."
Seeing that Qin Long had already drunk it, the others felt that they could rule out the possibility of poisoning him.
And after working for hours, they were indeed thirsty.
So they unscrewed the cap and tried to take a drink.
At this moment, Zhou Yi placed the bottle of water on the table. He had no intention of drinking it.
Seeing his movements, the others also stopped.
"Aren't you going to drink some?""If you don't like it, I'll get someone to bring some drinks over."Qin Long smiled. "You're the champions of this training. You can have anything you want."
"Thank you. I'm not really that thirsty. I'll drink it when I'm thirsty."Zhou Yi rejected Qin Long's offer.
At this moment, the attendant who had left earlier returned. "Brother Long, the dormitory over there is ready."
"Alright!""You can leave now."Qin Long replied before standing up. "Since you've finished packing, you may as well take a rest. It'll probably be daylight soon."
Zhou Yi and the others naturally had no meaning.
They packed up their belongings before following Qin Long upstairs.
However, the bottle of water Qin Long gave them was thrown onto the table.
Upstairs, there was a large dormitory with two rooms merged together. It was estimated that it had not been occupied for some time.
Just now, those people had simply swept the dust away and put some bedding on top of them. They were done with the cleaning.
After sending Zhou Yi and the others over, Qin Long left with his men.
Zhou Yi raised his head and took a look. Sure enough, there were a lot of surveillance cameras in this dormitory.
Seeing that Qin Long had left, the others hurried over to Zhou Yi.
Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Yi raised his head and looked at the surveillance camera above their heads.
Everyone instantly shut their mouths.
Qin Long had also returned to the monitoring room. He wanted to discuss with Mary what they were going to do next.
Since the higher-ups had already instructed them to turn all of them into mutants, they had to carry it out as soon as possible.
However, the moment he opened the door to the monitoring room, he was stunned. The entire monitoring screen had turned into snowflakes, and Mary herself had fainted on the table...
