Chapter 124: Give Him a Job
It was past 9 o'clock in the evening before Xia Yan got up from the sofa and looked out the dark window.
Just as Xiong Xiong said, there were no zombies nearby, and the customers had all gone further away.
Xia Yan thought about it and asked Xiong Xiong to take out the electric car and drive out of the hotel.
She had to go and see it for herself.
Unlike the dilapidated scene during the day, the wide-open doorways on both sides of the street at night were like dead monsters, giving people a sense of desolation that you are the only one alive in the world.
It was so quiet that there was not even a bird chirping.
Xia Yan turned on the high beam and looked around the block. Soon, she saw the old couple walking back with empty hands.
The old lady leaned on his arm and closed her eyes tiredly.
After not seeing each other for a few days, the corners of her mouth were getting more and more downward.
The two noticed the lights in the distance, and when they got closer, they found that it was Boss Xia.
"Boss Xia also came out to kill zombies? There are no zombies around here. Go further to see." The old man's lips turned a little pale.
"I just came to see you. Are you going back now?" Xia Yan looked at the two of them.
"I'm going back. I don't have the strength. I'm old." The old man smiled weakly and waved his hand backwards. "Boss Xia, go and get busy. We old couple won't delay you."
Xia Yan nodded and turned the ignition switch.
Three minutes after driving out, she saw another group of people. It was Qi Hua's team.
They harvested a level 2 zombie.
After nodding to Qi Hua and others, she continued to move forward. The farther away from the hotel, the more familiar customers there were.
There were also more zombies here.
Xia Yan calculated the time in her heart. It took her more than half an hour to get here from the hotel. If she walked, it would take an hour for a fast person, and at least two hours to go back and forth.
The hotel closed at 12 o'clock, and they set off at 7 o'clock, which meant that they only had 3 hours to find and kill zombies.
If it was before, this time would definitely be enough.
So, it's not a problem of time, but a problem of too few zombies.
Xia Yan continued to drive forward while thinking. She was already far away from the center of the city. She should not have seen any customers, but suddenly she saw three tall bald heads.
Under the moonlight, the three boiled eggs were like light bulbs, reflecting light.
They also noticed her and pointed at her from a distance.
The three boiled eggs gathered together, discussed and dug out the crystal core to go somewhere else.
Xia Yan did not plan to go any further, and turned around and drove back.
She had almost understood the situation, so she went back to discuss with the system.
On the way back, she changed another road, and saw the boy and the girl, the two lone rangers standing on the left and right sides of the zombie corpse, glaring at each other.
The dazzling light illuminated the surroundings, and the two turned their heads at the same time.
It turned out to be Boss Xia.
"Oh, you two are busy, so I won't bother you." Xia Yan smiled and said, passing by them.
Adults should not interfere in children's affairs.
After returning to the hotel, bathing in the light, Xia Yan felt comfortable all over.
"Xiongxiong, help me charge it, and push it back to the backyard after it's fully charged." She threw the key over, stretched and walked to the back.
Not to mention, I felt sore in my waist and buttocks after sitting in the car seat for too long.
In the yard, Zhikang moved the bed out and lay on it, staring blankly at the sky.
The night was not good tonight, with many clouds and few stars, and the Milky Way was even more unclear, which was much worse than the scenery she saw on the top of the mountain.
Xia Yan glanced at him and returned to her room, preparing to take a hot bath first.
Lying comfortably on the bed, with a small thin blanket covering her belly, she woke up the system.
"Tongzi, are you still awake? Chat with me."
"Tongzi, don't pretend, I know you don't need to sleep. Come out quickly."
[...What's the matter, just say it]
"What do you think about the fact that there are no zombies nearby?"
[I closed my eyes and didn't look]
"..."
"Let's talk about something serious, don't make a fuss." Xia Yan put one hand on his forehead.
[I'm not the boss, why should I worry about it]
"Can I directly transfer customers to the first or second level zombie pile? Then come back after killing almost all of them?"
[...Good idea, originality]
Xia Yan felt that this was the system's encouragement, and was ready to start considering how much to charge for the ticket.
[I'm not saying anything bad about you, but is the holiday door used to collect dust? Can you at least open it and take a look? ]
Hearing this, Xia Yan stood up suddenly.
"I understand what you mean, it's really my dear son!"
She lay down again, "Let's see tomorrow, there are so many things to do today, I'm tired!"
[...]
......
Xia Yan woke up naturally for once, and after holding the quilt for a while, he was considered to have successfully restarted.
After washing up, he opened the door and walked out. A thin and tall man in his 30s with his right shoulder drooping stood in the yard.
He stood next to the wooden sofa with a stern face, and looked up when he heard the door open.
"Good morning, boss."
"Yeah, good morning."
The change in one night is really big. She didn't expect that under the swollen body, the original body is so thin.
"Come with me." Xia Yan waved to him and led him through the door and into the hall.
"Xiong Xiong, this is a new employee, you assign him a job."
Xiong Xiong reached out and pinched his shoulder, which was a little tingling, and asked hesitantly: "Boss, does he have to eat first? Let him rest for a few days before working?"
Xia Yan was about to explain, but Zhi Kang spoke first: "No, I don't need to eat."
As he said this, he touched his shriveled stomach and didn't feel hungry at all.
Seeing that Xia Yan didn't say anything else, Xiong Xiong arranged him to clean the first floor.
It happened that 001 was not there, so he left an empty seat.
Xiong Xiong led him to familiarize himself with the environment on the first floor and told him the content of his work.
Two figures, one tall and one short, one thin and one fat, left together.
No one could have imagined that the bear was actually the store manager.
Seeing that she had nothing to do, Xia Yan walked into the buffet restaurant to eat.
In the morning, there would be no customers coming to the buffet restaurant to eat. Generally, at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, customers who had only finished breakfast would have lunch and dinner here together.
She was in a very good mood and drank yogurt and ate a small steamed bun with milk flavor.
At this time, she saw Zhi Kang walking in with a mop and a bucket, his eyes swept over the steaming food on the long dining table, and walked to the corner to wipe the floor carefully.
Zhikang's clothes had been changed. It was unknown where Xiongxiong found the dark blue sports suit. The short trouser legs revealed a thin ankle, which turned into 8-point sports pants.
Xiongxiong also tied an apron around his waist. Xia Yan looked closely and saw that it was the one Xiongxiong often used before.
Xia Yan retracted her gaze, finished eating in a few bites, and prepared to go back to the courtyard to see the holiday gate.
The system has repeatedly reminded her, and she would be sorry for the good intentions of the system if she didn't go to see it.
After she left, Zhikang straightened up and stared at the robot that was grilling steak, his fingers moving slightly.
The sizzling sound of beef was like the most pleasant music, lingering in his ears and attracting him.
