Chapter 95 - 95

Hello, here is my resume."

A slightly trembling voice spoke. Qinuo looked at the empty cuff of the somewhat nervous person in front of him.

He casually picked up the resume, glanced at it, and then put it down. Tom, on the other hand, seriously flipped through it.

"Mr. Connors, why don't you buy a limb regeneration potion?" Qinuo asked.

Connors touched his severed arm and gave a bitter smile:

"Sir, I haven't had a job for a long time. I can barely afford to eat, let alone buy it."

His eyes revealed deep helplessness and bitterness. This World did not have Osborn, and no one would want a disabled researcher.

"Mr. Connors, your resume states that you are researching limb regeneration technology. Do you know that our group already has a finished product for sale?"

Tom's expression was serious, and his gaze was focused on Connors, displaying a professional demeanor.

"Yes, but my technology is developed using lizard regeneration genes." Connors' expression darkened, and his voice became low.

"However, your research project has not been successful, and your resume states that you have been dismissed by multiple companies."

Tom stopped here. He could tell that the down-and-out scientist in front of him was just trying his luck.

Connors' eyes grew even dimmer. He knew that the next sentence would most likely be, "Please go home and wait. We will get back to you within a week, and you will be notified of the result, whatever it may be."

However, to his surprise, something unexpected happened.

"Mr. Connors, you've been hired. Come to work tomorrow."

Connors looked up in surprise, staring at Qinuo in disbelief, his eyes wide with astonishment.

He was hired?

"Regarding your salary and benefits, you don't have successful research. Your monthly salary is 20,000 dollars, and if needed, there's also an employee dormitory. You can move in anytime."

"...Why?"

Connors was silent for a moment before asking. Although he had already gotten the job he wanted, the doubts in his heart still drove him to seek an answer.

"Perhaps it's the unwillingness in your eyes. I want to see if your research has any other surprises."

"...Thank you for your recognition."

"You can go out first! I have the next round of interviews."

After Connors left, Tom couldn't help but ask, "Boss, even if his research is successful, it won't be of much use to us."

"If it's useless, it's useless. I'll just keep it as a decoration."

Qinuo replied casually.

Qinuo couldn't tell him that he was Dr. Lizard in another World.

The next person to appear was a man with a bowl cut.

Qinuo took the resume and glanced at it: Otto Gunther Octavius. What kind of luck was this today? Dr. Octopus also appeared.

Otto was just about to introduce himself.

"You've been hired. Come to work tomorrow. Salary and benefits..."

Otto opened his mouth, unsure what to say.

"Any other questions?" Qinuo asked.

"No..."

Otto was full of doubts. Was his resume that good? He got the job just by looking at it.

After Otto left, another person walked in confidently and began to talk fluently.

If a disabled person can get hired, I'll definitely be fine.

Tom first glanced at his boss, and seeing that he had no interest, he then flipped through the resume in his hand.

He had only read half of it when he directly threw it into the trash can.

"You can leave."

"Why?"

"Cruz University closed fifteen years ago. If you really graduated from there, you'd be at least 29 years old now, but your resume says you're only 26.

Next time you forge a resume, find someone more professional."

"I had a printing error, I'm actually 36 years old." The applicant still tried to argue.

"Deadpool, drag him out."

Tom was too lazy to listen to his nonsense anymore.

"Alright, buddy, let's have a deep conversation."

Deadpool immediately rushed in, grabbed the man by the collar, and dragged him out like a chicken.

Next, Qinuo no longer intervened, only occasionally glancing at the resume to see if there were any familiar names.

Tom also acted extremely professionally and seriously. He carefully reviewed each resume, asking applicants relevant questions, his expression focused and solemn.

Besides Connors and Otto, only two people remained.

"Next."

With that word, the door slowly opened, and a green-haired girl walked in. Her hands were empty, and she didn't hand in a resume.

Tom frowned. In his opinion, this was an extremely unserious attitude, but it was his duty, so he still followed the procedure.

"Please briefly introduce yourself first."

The green-haired girl's big eyes stared straight at Qinuo.

Tom frowned, thinking to himself that this was another one trying to seduce the boss to get ahead. He had encountered too many such people and was about to call someone.

"My name is Lorna Dane. I haven't been to school. I'm a Mutant."

A Mutant?

Qinuo became interested. Although the job posting stated that Mutants were also welcome, Lorna was the first one to come.

Those people from X Academy hadn't arrived yet.

"Can you show me your abilities?" Qinuo asked with interest.

Lorna's green hair lifted, dancing gently as if alive.

Her raised hands were surrounded by an emerald green glow, which flickered and danced like agile spirits.

The entire room seemed to transform into a fantastical metal World, with all the metal joyfully leaping and spinning, dazzling the eyes.

"Magnetic field manipulation? What's your relationship with Magneto?"

"I don't know him."

Speaking of Magneto, Lorna's eyes turned cold.

"If you don't know him, you don't know him."

Qinuo also didn't press for details, a delighted smile appearing on his face.

Today was truly a great harvest.

"Your salary is 50,000 per month, and you can live in the employee dormitory. Do you have any other requests?"

"I want to be by your side."

When Lorna made this request, Qinuo was slightly taken aback.

Tom, on the other hand, frowned, feeling that the girl's intentions were not pure.

But Lorna's expression was firm, her eyes fixed on Qinuo, seemingly determined not to give up until she achieved her goal.

"Why? Don't tell me it's love at first sight. I don't believe in that." Qinuo frowned.

"You forgot, in the alley."

The room immediately fell silent, with only Qinuo lost in thought.

Tom was already planning to pack his things. This wasn't an employee; it was the new boss's wife.

The alley?

He had only been to an alley twice: once he found Pamela, and the other time he saved a Mutant.

"You're that Mutant. Why didn't you go to X Academy?"

Qinuo asked. His gaze fell on Lorna, with a hint of confusion.

"I don't trust them."
