"Boss Wen..." Li Weiwei made a decisive move and walked up to Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu looked at Li Weiwei, noticing her lowered head, seemingly a bit anxious, and pretended to be puzzled as he asked:
"What’s wrong?"
"Can I successfully get hired?"
"I’m not sure," Wen Xishu replied bluntly.
Li Weiwei stepped a little closer:
"Boss Wen, I want to... join the Three Towers Company. You’ve surely been hired already. If you, as the boss, could perhaps mention... my name..."
Li Weiwei gazed affectionately:
"I’m willing to do anything to repay you."
In the post-apocalypse, Wen Xishu could imagine the survival strategies of vulnerable women. Despite Li Weiwei’s initial strong and pure demeanor, at this moment, her humble shyness was not a collapse of character.
In fact, this was the reason she managed to survive, and it had little to do with her medical skills.
Wen Xishu said:
"You have your own community and team, right? In the post-apocalypse?"
Li Weiwei nodded:
"Yes... at a hospital in Deep City."
Deep City?
That indeed showed some capability. Wen Xishu knew that the more oppressive a city, the more peculiarities emerge after the apocalypse. Hujiang was an example.
Jiangcheng, Deep City, Magic City... the characteristics of these three cities in Longxia could rival Hujiang. Li Weiwei previously mentioned that she managed a community that was clean and peaceful, with everyone trusting her...
Li Weiwei had not yet displayed such capability. Wen Xishu speculated that more powerful figures might have established order.
However, Li Weiwei also used some means to obtain special treatment.
"If you join the Three Towers Company, you’ll abandon those you’ve protected before," Wen Xishu said.
Li Weiwei was candid:
"People strive to climb higher. I just want to live better. Boss Wen, I’m willing to do anything for the chance to stay."
"But if I can’t stay, I will continue to protect those people."
Wen Xishu said:
"Then I wish you a successful interview. I hope you’ll be just as honest during it."
Wen Xishu left, no longer bothering with Li Weiwei, believing Tang Zhe was most likely to stay. Whether Li Weiwei and Clark Kent would remain depended on luck.
It’s worth noting that during the interview process, Shen Changfeng actively stated he did not wish to stay at the Three Towers Company, only hoping to receive some rewards and leave.
Shen Changfeng’s ability was to neither eat nor sleep, much like Ironman. He also had people he desired to take care of. Hence, he refused the Three Towers Company.
Wen Xishu still respected such a person.
He didn’t underestimate anyone in the apocalypse. These people might be minor characters now, but who could say one wouldn’t become a super Obsession Body in the future?
Wen Xishu found a place to hide.
He was going back to the Bunker, so he didn’t intend to let anyone see this scene.
This journey actually lasted only a few days, but for Wen Xishu, it was a whole month’s journey.
He was a bit tired and wanted to return to the Bunker for a rest.
At the same time, he was also curious about what rewards Heart Inquiry would offer him.
Soon after this thought occurred, a familiar sense of dizziness found Wen Xishu. Very quickly...
He disappeared.
This job-seeking journey for the Three Towers Company was over.
At the same time, in the Three Towers Company, Gua Shisan, as a one-on-one interviewer, eagerly inquired about Wen Xishu, wanting to know his background and why he was able to receive Gua Qi immediately upon arrival.
Gua Er and Deceit One simply held a funeral for the previous Gua Qi.
Clark Kent successfully passed the interview and could become a grassroots employee, no longer facing the rats and monsters of Mo’en City on the Three-Tower Battlefield...
But Clark Kent was also caught in a dilemma—whether to protect people in the real world or to stay?
He agonized for a long time and ultimately made the same choice as Shen Changfeng.
Courageous enough to be the first to jump into Zone A, willing to work overtime to compete for a chance, yet when the opportunity appeared, he gave it up because of his attachments.
Gua Shisan still admired people like this.
Facing Clark Kent, Gua Shisan left a remark:
"Alright, I hope we don’t meet again, and I hope you have a good life. Someone like you, once gone, those you protect might develop obsessions."
Clark Kent and Shen Changfeng became those who refused the Three Towers Company’s invitation. In the apocalypse, protectors like them often stirred up massive, relentless emotions...
...
...
The clockwise-moving clock and door appeared in Wen Xishu’s vision, making him more convinced of the complexity of the Three Towers Company.
Even though Qilin was truly the number one employee, Qilin probably didn’t know much about the Three Towers Company either.
The guide seemed related to the Three Towers Company as well.
"Clap, clap, clap, clap!" the black Deceitful Head let out a strange laugh.
Wen Xishu said:
"What’s so funny? Still laughing? You three have no value left, you’re practically like decorations. Stop laughing, I fear Heart Inquiry might misunderstand."
Wen Xishu walked straight toward the door leading to Heart Inquiry.
At this moment, the black Deceitful Head promptly stopped its laughter, hastily saying:
"Wait, wait! Actually! Actually! If you have any questions, you can ask us too!! Within our scope of access, we’ll surely give you answers!"
Wen Xishu was certain that the higher one climbed the Tower, the more the guide’s attitude toward you became agreeable and ingratiating.
It’s evident that higher-ranking individuals could benefit them, but the specific benefits remained unknown.
Wen Xishu wasn’t in a hurry; he could sense that after the appearance of Heart Inquiry, the Three Towers guides were a bit anxious. They were eager to prove their value.
