Chapter 274: Chapter 272: Group Haircuts
“Both of you, want to get a haircut?” Jiang Yan turned her head to glance at Ye Qing and Sun Jingtao, feeling somewhat emotional.
Sun Jingtao’s hair had grown nearly shoulder-length.
The red and black hairband that Ye Qing had used in the Shallow Bay District was now on his head.
The color had faded to white, and at the broken ends, one could see traces of mending.
Back in Anming, Sun Jingtao always kept the habit of trimming his hair regularly.
After all, keeping a crew cut had become a habit in the team.
After the apocalypse began, the couple taught themselves and became each other’s personal hairdressers.
Later on, as the temperature dropped sharply and the ground was covered in ice and snow, they stopped trimming their hair for the sake of warmth.
After arriving at Flame Base, Sun Jingtao was recuperating from injuries, and it just continued to grow.
Unexpectedly, without shampoo or conditioner, the hair, like fertilized leeks, actually grew very well.
As for Ye Qing, it was just the opposite.
Because he had become a test subject in the SNP laboratory, his hair had been shaved off entirely.
However, it had recently started to grow back a bit.
If he took off his hat, he would look like a fuzzy egg.
But his high attractiveness was a saving grace; even as a fuzzy egg, he was a handsome one.
“Let’s get a haircut,” Sun Jingtao smiled, “after all, arriving at Yaoben Base marks a new beginning for us.”
Hearing her husband say this, Su Dai agreed, “Yes, a new hairstyle for a new mood, let’s welcome the new start together!”
“Jiang Yan, are you cutting yours too?” She turned her head to look at Jiang Yan, whose hair also reached her waist.
Among all the people there, Jiang Yan stood out the most in terms of hairstyle, hair quality, complexion, and skin.
Although she had been trying her best to camouflage herself.
But the glossy black hair, pale skin, and her naturally occurring hyaluronic-filled face were something others could only long for but never achieve.
However, when she was in Flame Base, Jiang Yan had always been fully masked and hatted, and not many could recognize her.
Now that they were in Yaoben Base, and staying in Area A, the residents here, either wealthy or possessing unique skills or accomplishments, merely glanced at her more than necessary while queuing for the haircut.
They took her for a high-level family member and dared not harbor any covetous thoughts.
As for Ye Qing, whose height and build obviously differed from ordinary people, people dared only sneak brief glances.
Having lived through the apocalypse for a long time, everyone’s guard was heavily up.
“Cut,” grinned Jiang Yan.
Surviving the apocalypse, after all, required adapting to local customs.
It was quite possible that, according to Mo Jingsheng’s habits, they had entered a new surveillance area from the moment they stepped into the base.
The four of them joined the queue and casually learned that the barber, before the apocalypse, was a designated hairdresser for some famous celebrities.
Getting a trim cost no less than a thousand bucks.
After arriving at Yaoben Base, when registering personal skills, he listed hair cutting, and since he was skilled, he was assigned to Area A.
Although haircuts were free, they could earn work points based on the type and number of haircuts performed.
These points could then be exchanged for supplies.
Because the price was cheaper and given the apocalyptic environment, Toni, the teacher, naturally couldn’t maintain his thousand-buck-per-cut custom quality.
A single person, with just a pair of scissors, effectively set up an assembly line.
Seeing him take up the scissors, with a series of clips and flips of his fingers, newly shorn heads quickly appeared.
The haircut for the three took only about twenty minutes, not including the ten minutes they spent queuing.
Jiang Yan got her hair cut to shoulder length, and Su Dai opted for a bob.
Sun Jingtao, at last, returned to his long-missed crew cut.
The three of them felt refreshed and their spirits considerably lifted.
“Let’s go shopping now,” Jiang Yan waved, leading her companions into the supermarket.
The supermarket entrance was small, passing through a short corridor, two silver-gray metal gates appeared in front.
The 𝘮ost uptodat𝑒 novels are pub𝙡ished on freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Similar to pre-apocalypse tourist site traffic control gates, it seemed like access required a card swipe.
“Please swipe your Area A residence pass,” prompted the two armed soldiers standing at the entrance as they glanced at the four.
Jiang Yan and her companions had received their Area A residence passes at noon when they arrived at the base to complete their check-in.
The four of them took them out and swiped, entering in single file.
Continuing deeper inside, they discovered an entirely different world…
