The third update today

The small robot stores the vehicle in its space and then completes the registration process for entering the base.

He no longer tried to hide from people when he parked his car, since he had his "spatial ability" as cover.

The little robot naturally noticed that ever since he arrived at the entrance of the mountain base, humans had been constantly staring at him. Even when he was registering, the person in charge lingered on him longer than on the others.

However, the little robot didn't mind. He had already extracted key information from the humans' whispers and knew why they were looking at him.

The little robot thought it was pretty good.

It's not that he likes being seen by humans, but since the news has spread so widely, his garbage recycling business will be relatively more prosperous, saving him the trouble of advertising himself.

As soon as the little robot stepped into the base, before it even had a chance to see what the mountain base looked like inside, someone called its name.

"Mr. Naji! Mr. Naji!"

It is Feng Lixuan and Feng Le.

The little robot certainly remembered the two of them.

Hello.

“Mr. Naji has finally arrived. Regarding the branch store you mentioned earlier, I have selected several suitable locations, which I can show you for your selection at any time,” Feng Lixuan reported excitedly.

But before the little robot could speak, he was glared at by his younger brother.

"Brother, you're really lacking in hospitality! Mr. Ji just arrived at our base and hasn't even had a proper rest yet. At the very least, he should find a place to stay, put his things down, wash up, and have a good meal. If there's still time, he can even look around our base and then visit the shops later."

As she spoke, Feng Le invited the little robot, "Mr. Ji, why don't you stay at my and my place? Our place used to be a row of townhouses. Both the houses themselves and the surrounding environment are quite nice. You'll definitely be comfortable there."

Feng Le was very enthusiastic, but unfortunately he didn't know that these things were not necessary for the little robot.

The little robot shook its head, declining Feng Le's invitation, but agreed to Feng Lixuan's suggestion to look at the shop.

Feng Le was somewhat disappointed, but he didn't say anything and followed the two of them to the nearest shop.

However, the three of them had only taken a few steps when their path was blocked.

When Feng Le saw the person blocking his way at the front, his eyes lit up slightly.

What a beauty! Petite yet undeniably feminine, such a woman would be highly sought after even in the apocalypse. In fact, one could argue that such women are more likely to win the favor of powerful individuals in the post-apocalyptic world.

Feng Le himself is not a strong person, but that doesn't stop him from liking this style.

However, he was perceptive enough to know that the beautiful woman in front of him wasn't after him.

This person was none other than Tan Mengzhu, and her purpose in blocking the road was obviously to get the little robot.

They had been at the Qunshan base for ten days, but they didn't expect that the little robot that had been walking ahead of them when they left the Hope base was not at the Qunshan base. At that time, Tan Mengzhu almost thought that this person knew her purpose and did not intend to come here.

If it weren't for the intermittent news about mobile commercial vehicles that came later, she would have already led her people away from the mountain base and headed back.

Therefore, upon hearing that the little robot had arrived at the base entrance, she finally couldn't resist coming over to block it.

"Na Jitong, I like you." Tan Mengzhu said it directly.

She was afraid that if she made things complicated again, this guy wouldn't understand at all.

After saying those words, Tan Mengzhu stood still, staring intently at the snow-haired boy.

She didn't say much else, believing her beauty was beyond words. In this world, those powerful men certainly disregard societal norms and have countless women around them, but she was certain she wouldn't be like them.

Putting aside her looks and the fact that she is also an ability user, she is also the daughter of the base leader. Even for the sake of her father, no man would dare to make her one of those women without a title, right?

If Ji Tong agrees, he can have such a beautiful woman like himself, how prestigious that would be!

Tan Mengzhu gently brushed her hair behind her ear, her gaze towards the person in front of her filled with determination.

Although this guy is a bit younger than me, he's good-looking and capable, just like my dad said, he's good enough for me. As for his somewhat dull personality, I can train him a bit once we're together.

But the most crucial thing is that, as her boyfriend, he absolutely has to hand over his salary. Hmm... I'm not the kind of woman who doesn't understand her boyfriend. If he likes to open shops everywhere, let him open them everywhere, just don't make the prices too low. With such good resources, what a great opportunity to climb the ladder! This guy is just not clever enough.

But it's okay, we'll leave these things to Dad. He'll definitely do a good job.

As for her boyfriend, isn't her father also his father? Why distinguish between "you" and "me"?

Also, I heard this guy likes to pick up trash. Hmm, he'll have to change that habit once he becomes my boyfriend. I don't want the person next to me to be surrounded by trash all the time; it smells awful.

Hmm, that was a bit too rushed. After he agrees, I'll have to make him give me a proper confession ceremony. If there aren't any flowers this season, surely I should give him jewelry and pretty clothes? He's received so many pieces of jewelry that ordinary people use for trade.

Although these things won't be worth much after the apocalypse, I'm not that picky, so... I'll just pick out more that match my clothes.

The more Tan Mengzhu thought about it, the more smug her expression became.

It's as if I can already see myself in the future, arm in arm with my devoted boyfriend, strolling beautifully through the area under my father's control, with everyone around me looking at me with respect.

only……

Why haven't we heard Ji Tong's reply yet?

Could he really be speaking so softly?!

Tan Mengzhu was somewhat displeased and couldn't help but urge him to look ahead... Huh? Where is everyone?!

The snow-haired boy was no longer in front of her; only a skinny little fellow was staring at her.

"Who are you!" Tan Mengzhu finally snapped out of her beautiful fantasy, took a step back, and turned her gaze to see that her target had already walked to the side and was following another man to another place.

They showed no intention of responding to me at all.

Tan Mengzhu felt a little flustered.

She quickened her pace, but before she could stop him, she was blocked again by the skinny guy.

Before Tan Mengzhu could even ask him to move aside, she could only shout at him, "Na Jitong! I like you! Didn't you hear me?!"

The little robot certainly heard it.

But if you like something, what does it have to do with you?

In previous worlds, the little robot had heard countless humans say they liked something—a certain cat, a certain dog, a certain celebrity, or a certain character.

In his view, human preferences are magical.

However, there doesn't need to be any relationship between liking someone and being liked.

So he didn't do much.

But judging from what the other party is saying, does it mean they need me to give some kind of response?

The little robot thought for a moment, stopped, and hesitantly said to Tan Mengzhu, "Thank you...?"

He remembered seeing some humans respond in the same way before.

Tan Mengzhu: "..."

The onlookers, who had witnessed the entire scene, chuckled and exclaimed, "...Pfft!"

Tsk tsk.

After saying thank you, the little robot felt it had done what it was supposed to do, so it ignored him and continued walking with Feng Lixuan toward the shop.

Tan Mengzhu was left standing there, her face both dark and pale.

Feng Le handed him a tissue: "Don't be sad, Miss. You're so pretty, there are plenty of men who like you. My name is Feng Le, let's have a meal together sometime."

After saying that, he quickly caught up with his brother and Boss Naji.

.

The little robot, who didn't care about the situation at the base entrance, efficiently looked at several shop addresses that day and quickly decided on a shop at an intersection.

Feng Lixuan had already taken care of the opening procedures for the shop, and once the specific location was selected, he got the permits the very next day.

With the experience of opening the previous store, the little robot did not take long to set up the store, and that afternoon, the Naji Trading Store Qunshan Branch opened.

In the first half day after the opening, the area was surrounded by onlookers.

But at first, not many people actually came forward to exchange supplies.

It wasn't until later in the day, when most of the mission teams had returned, that the shop suddenly became lively.

These people were ordering barbecue and alcohol in a boisterous manner, and the aroma of a pre-apocalyptic night filled the air.

The onlookers could no longer resist and all crowded around to start trading.

The little robot watched as the automated trading system handled everything, and even though the area outside the shop was practically packed with people, the trading system didn't break down at all.

He then moved a small stool and table to the corner and continued to process the trash in the recycling bin bit by bit.

Clearly, his recycling bins are about to be filled with a new wave of garbage.

We need to make room for more people.

.

Naji's shop became very popular in the Gunsan base.

Before Tan Mengzhu led her team away, everyone here knew about the shop. Just like the Hope Base, the ordinary people in the base went out of the city in groups to scavenge for land, picking up any trash they saw and happily taking it back to Naji's shop to trade for the supplies they needed.

Life is full of hope.

But Tan Mengzhu was very resentful.

She hadn't expected that she couldn't even seduce a young boy. However, she couldn't stay at the mountain base any longer; she hadn't completed the task her father had given her—she hadn't won over Ji Tong—and she would be scolded when she returned.

Najitong, I'll remember you!

Despite her reluctance, Tan Mengzhu still led her team away.

However, the very next day, their team returned to the mountain base.

However, everyone in the team looked extremely grim, including Tan Mengzhu. Several people were so shocked and frightened that they couldn't speak.

Finally catching his breath, Lin Jian, disregarding everything else, shouted loudly to those around him:

"A horde of zombies! A huge horde of zombies is coming this way!"

"It's a zombie apocalypse!"

The mountain base has been besieged by zombies!

.

When Feng Lixuan came to the shop, the little robot that was still dealing with garbage in the shop learned that the Qunshan base was in a huge crisis.

This is a zombie siege. If we can't survive, the name "Mountain Base" may never exist again!

It doesn't matter if the base is destroyed, but of the hundreds of thousands of people inside, very few will survive!

"Can't we organize an evacuation?"

"No, it's too late. There are hordes of zombies in every direction, so many ordinary people can't possibly escape!" Feng Lixuan said gravely.

"So who are you looking for?"

"I'd like to know how much of those scrolls you currently have in stock?"
