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 like Xiong Xiong said, there were no more zombies nearby and the customers all ran away to farther places.

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 for herself.

Unlike the desolation during the day, the wide-open doorways on both sides of the streets at night are like tragically dead monsters, giving people a desolate feeling that you are the only one alive in the world.

It was so quiet that not even the sound of birds was heard.

Xia Yan turned on the high beam and looked around the block. Soon, she saw the old couple walking back hand in hand with empty hands.

The old lady leaned on his arm and closed her eyes tiredly.

After not seeing her for a few days, the corners of her mouth became more and more downward.

The two noticed a light in the distance, and when they got closer they realized it was Boss Xia.

"Boss Xia is out killing zombies too? There are no more around here. You should look further away." The old man's lips turned a little pale.

"I just came to take a look, are you going back now?" Xia Yan looked at the two of them.

"I'm going back. I don't have the strength anymore. I'm old." The old man smiled weakly and waved his hand behind him. "Boss Xia, go get busy. We old couple won't keep you any longer."

Xia Yan nodded and turned on the power switch.

Three minutes after driving out, she saw another group of people, which was Qi Hua's team.

They harvested a level two zombie.

After nodding to Qi Hua and others, she continued forward. The farther she got from the hotel, the more familiar customers she saw.

There are also more zombies here.

Xia Yan calculated the time in her mind. It took her more than half an hour to get here from the hotel. If she walked, it would take her an hour even if she was fast. The round trip would take at least two hours.

The hotel closes at 12 o'clock, and they set off at 7 o'clock, which means they only have 3 hours to find and kill zombies.

In the past, this time would definitely be enough.

So, it’s not a matter of time, but a matter of too few zombies.

Xia Yan continued driving forward while thinking. He was already far away from the center of the city. He should not see any customers, but suddenly he saw three tall bald men.

Under the moonlight, the three boiled eggs looked like light bulbs, reflecting light.

They also noticed her and pointed at her from a distance.

The three braised eggs gathered together, discussed, dug out the crystal core and prepared to go somewhere else to have a look.

Xia Yan didn't plan to go any further, so he turned around and drove back.

I have a pretty good understanding of the situation, so I'll go back and discuss it with the system.

On her way back, she took another route 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 to look at the same time.

It turned out to be Boss Xia.

"Oh, you two are busy, so I won't disturb you." Xia Yan smiled and said, then passed by them.

Adults should not interfere in children's affairs.

After returning to the hotel, bathed in the light, Xia Yan felt relaxed all over.

"Xiongxiong, help me charge it. Once it's fully charged, push it back to the backyard." She threw the key over, stretched, and walked to the back.

Not to mention, after sitting in the car seat for too long, my waist and buttocks felt sore.

In the yard, Zhikang moved the bed outside and lay on it, staring blankly at the sky.

The night sky was not good tonight, with many clouds and few stars, and the Milky Way was even more unclear. It was much worse than the view she saw on the top of the mountain.

Xia Yan glanced at him and returned to her room, ready to take a hot bath.

Lying comfortably in bed with a thin blanket covering her stomach, she woke up the system.

"Tongzi, are you still awake? Come and chat with me."

"Tongzi, stop pretending. I know you don't need to sleep. Come out quickly."

[...What's the matter? Just tell me.]

"What do you think about the lack of zombies nearby?"

I close my eyes and don't look

“…”

"Let's talk about serious things, stop making trouble." Xia Yan put one hand on his forehead.

[I'm not the boss, why should I worry about it]

"Do you think I can just teleport the customer to the pile of level one or level two zombies? And then come back after I've killed most of them?"

[...good idea, unique]

Xia Yan felt that this was encouragement from the system and was ready to start considering how much to charge for the ticket.

[I'm not saying anything bad about you, but is that vacation door just for dust? Can you at least open it and take a look?]

Upon hearing this, Xia Yan stood up suddenly.

"I understand what you mean. You are indeed my dear Tongzi!"

She lay down again. "Let's see tomorrow. I've had so much to do today. I'm exhausted!"

【...】

......

It was a rare occasion for Xia Yan to wake up naturally. After holding the quilt and being in a daze for a while, he finally managed to restart successfully.

After washing up, I opened the door and walked out. Standing in the yard was a thin man in his 30s with a drooping right shoulder.

He was standing beside the wooden sofa with a stern face. When he heard the door open, he looked up.

"Good morning, boss."

"Yeah, good morning."

The changes in one night were really big. She didn't expect that under the swollen body, the original body was actually so thin.

"Follow me." Xia Yan waved to him and led him through the door and into the hall.

"Xiongxiong, this is a new employee. Please assign him a job."

Xiong Xiong reached out and pinched his tingling shoulder, then asked hesitantly, "Boss, doesn't he need to eat first? Let him rest for a few days before he can work?"

Xia Yan was about to explain when Zhigang spoke first: "No, I don't need to eat."

As he said this, he touched his empty stomach and didn't feel hungry at all.

Seeing that Xia Yan didn't say anything else, Xiong Xiong arranged for him to do cleaning on the first floor.

It just so happened that 001 was not there, leaving a vacant seat.

Xiongxiong took 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 are no customers coming to the buffet restaurant. Generally, at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, customers who have only finished breakfast will have lunch and dinner together here.

She was in a very good mood as she drank yogurt and ate a small steamed bun with a milky flavor.

At this time, she saw Zhichang walking in with a mop and a bucket. He glanced at the steaming food on the long dining table, walked to the corner and began to wipe the floor carefully.

Zhicang's clothes had already been changed, and Xiongxiong didn't know where he found the dark blue sports suit. The trouser legs were so short that they revealed his skinny ankles, making it look like 8-point sports pants.

Xiong Xiong also tied an apron around his waist. Xia Yan looked closely and found that it was the one Xiong Xiong used to use.

Xia Yan withdrew his gaze, finished his meal in a few bites, and prepared to return to the courtyard to take a look at the holiday gate.

The system has reminded her again and again, and if she doesn't go and check it out, she will be letting the system down.

After she left, he straightened up and stared at the robot that was grilling steak, his fingers moving slightly.

The sizzling sound of the beef was like the most pleasant music, lingering in his ears and attracting him.
