Chapter 38 Staying in a Hotel?
Downstairs, Xia Yan was fascinated by the variety show and was unaware that Feng Tianxi and Feng Tianxi were wandering around in the corridor.
It wasn't until after 9 o'clock that she was really sleepy, so she turned off the TV and drove the two of them upstairs to rest.
"Go to bed, the TV will be on all day tomorrow!"
Jing Yimai and Zhang Lei reluctantly went upstairs.
Xia Yan asked Xiong Xiong to clean up the hall. She stretched and prepared to close the door.
"System, how many points will be credited today?"
[Today’s turnover is 820, current progress bar: 5909/8000]
Xia Yan didn't expect that he had just been upgraded and was about to be upgraded again.
I still have to thank Jing Yimai for his strong support!
She plans to meet "rich people" in the future and try to get them to book rooms for a few more months. The points will definitely be awesome!
Xia Yan was in a good mood, humming a tune and holding the door handle, preparing to lock the door and go to sleep. He casually glanced at the broken window lattice of the shop next to him, paused, took a closer look, and opened the door again.
"Does the customer plan to stay in the store? The store will be closed soon."
After a few seconds of silence, the white paint fell off to reveal the scarlet bricks inside. An old woman poked her head out, her hair messy and tangled, standing on top of her head like an afro.
"Accommodation? How much does it cost?" The old woman looked around tremblingly. As night fell, zombies would run rampant and they could no longer stay on the street.
Feng Tianxi and his daughter entered this hotel and never left. Is this really a hotel providing accommodation?
The old woman's body hidden behind the wall was firmly in front of the boy. She was trembling like a hamster cornered.
"Yes, the store provides accommodation. A single room only costs 30 points per person." Xia Yan took out the flashlight and turned on the switch to light up the whole street.
Seeing the old woman shrinking back behind the wall with fear on her face, Xia Yan said gently, "Don't be afraid, it's just for you to show your way. Do you need to stay in a hotel? If not, the store will be closed."
In fact, Xia Yan just wanted to see clearly what the old woman had been covering up.
Through the bright light, she discovered that what was hidden was a teenage boy. His thin face became more and more pointed, his mouth was tightly pursed into a straight line, and his big eyes shone like obsidian in the light.
Although he was scared, he tried his best to stop his trembling body. His eyes were fixed on Xia Yan, and his whole body was tense, like an arrow ready to go. Just waiting for an order, he broke free from his bow and roared towards him. go out.
Xia Yan withdrew his gaze and lost interest. After counting ten times in his heart, the two of them still made no move and closed the door.
After locking the door with a click, Xia Yan turned off the light and asked Xiong Xiong to stay at the door and guard the door. If there was any abnormality, he would subdue it first and then notify her.
Anyway, the hotel's defense system was always on, so Xia Yan wasn't worried, as long as the perpetrator couldn't escape.
The two people hiding in the dilapidated shop outside the door saw that the female boss did not invite them to stay as warmly as they thought, and instead quickly turned off the lights and went back to sleep.
For a while, the two of them stared at the hotel that was incompatible with the surroundings and did not dare to take it lightly.
"Well, did you see it? Feng Tianxi and the two went in and never came out, right?" The old woman tried her best to speak in an angry voice, for fear of attracting zombies.
The boy nodded slightly, staring at the exquisite decoration behind the translucent glass illuminated by the moonlight.
Bright floors, clean and comfortable sofas, a whole row of brand-new machines, and the water dispenser at the front even has a light on.
What are the two machines next to them used for? Why is the screen still on?
Moreover, Feng Tianxi had taken something out of it earlier, with a look of shock and surprise.
That machine must have some secret!
He noticed that the female boss only hung a simple lock on the door. The glass didn't look bulletproof. How about hitting them with a rock before they were asleep?
The boy seriously considered the possibility, but quickly gave up on the idea.
There was nothing he could do. He had been hungry for several days. He had run out of luck to be able to walk here with his mother safely. After smashing the glass, he and his mother couldn't run far, forget it.
The boy shifted his gaze, preparing to find a relatively safe place to spend the night.
Although he and his mother rarely lived alone outside the base, he often heard Xiaojie talk about things outside.
The top priority is to find a safer place to avoid the zombies that run rampant at night.
After grabbing his mother, he looked cautiously at the hotel, preparing to go out and find another safe place.
Suddenly, a big bear walked out of the darkness in the hotel. It was furry all over. It walked to the door on two thick long-haired legs and stood there. Its big head slowly rotated and it looked at the outside through its black bean-like eyes.
Caught off guard, the boy met the big bear's black bean eyes. His whole body stiffened, his hair stood up, and he was sweating profusely.
Then, what is that!
A wave of crisis crept up the back of his neck. The boy was unable to move and was frozen in place. His mother, like him, did not dare to move.
They heard from people in the base that some people's special ability is to tame wild beasts and work for them. Accordingly, the master must provide meat to the wild beasts to prevent them from being devoured.
Could it be that they were so unlucky that they encountered a wild beast?
Beads of sweat slid down the boy's forehead. His fingers moved slightly, and a pure green power gradually condensed between his fingers.
His special ability is forced communication, and he can forcefully use communication skills that are lower than his own.
Obviously, this is aimed at people with super powers. After all, zombies have no brains and can't communicate.
As a result, all the teams were not only unwilling to take him with them, but also rejected him.
The boy put the green energy on his forehead with sweat all over his head, his eyes locked on Xiong Xiong, and he prayed frantically in his heart that the other party's ability level was not high, so that he could force communication. Although it might be small, but...
"Monster... Come quickly..."
The boy was stunned. He actually heard a voice just now?
Could it be that the forced communication was successful? !
"Repeat what you just said." The boy suppressed his excitement. He didn't hear it clearly just now. What monster?
"The monster you are afraid of... eats... a lot... Come quickly."
The electronic sound that couldn't distinguish between men and women rang directly in his mind, and he finally heard it clearly this time.
Monster? Could he be talking about zombies? Zombies are coming? ! There are still a lot of them? !
The boy's face turned pale, his hands and feet were cold, and he grabbed his mother's hand and ran out.
After running a few steps, he was stunned again.
Where could they run to? There is no place to hide here!
The boy vaguely heard the chaos coming from the street outside, mixed with the roar of zombies after running wild. What to do...
The mother saw that he was not in a good state, and had a vague suspicion that something was wrong. Her face also turned gray, and the dim light in her eyes almost disappeared.
The zombie group gradually approached, and the roar even rang in her ears.
The boy's legs became weak, and he wanted to drag his mother to hide in a shop on the side.
Several zombies appeared at the end of the street.
The moonlight tonight was very dazzling. From such a distance, the boy could easily see the skinless face of the zombies full of black and gray muscle tissue, bulging eyeballs, sharp teeth, and opened his mouth wide to roar at them, staggering and running towards them.
"Run...Run, son..."
