When Shi Jiu thought of this, he became a little worried and quickly went to grab 001 to ask him.

"What if those three thousand people leave? Will their experience points be deducted?" Shi Jiu asked in his mind.

"If the number of people is too large, the experience value will stagnate. It will only continue to increase when the number of people staying in the hotel returns to that number."

As long as she didn't return to the original layout, she would try her best to keep the people in City A. No! Maybe...

Shi Jiu was envious of the population of City A, thinking about how to expand his customer base, while arranging the hot pot for lunch.

According to the configuration that each table can only accommodate a dozen or twenty people at most, if all 10,000 people were to be accommodated, not to mention the price, the cafeteria would not be able to fully operate.

Maybe invite the important people to a private room to eat hotpot, and serve the others with a big pot meal?

Shi Jiu told Qin Lou his idea, and Qin Lou also thought about it for a while.

"It's not really realistic to invite everyone to eat hotpot. We can ask Yang Tian how many important people there are so we can make arrangements."

Shi Jiu nodded. This was not a big expense and was easy to arrange. However, she suddenly remembered that there would be many people at the scene and that people might talk about it at the dinner table. The social anxiety that she had suppressed in her heart came out again.

When she thought of that scene, her whole body went numb and her heart was overwhelmed by the spreading fear.

Qin Lou took a look at the layout of the large cafeteria that had just appeared today. It could still accommodate 10,000 people. When he was about to upload the ingredients, he saw Shi Jiu's face was pale, and there was panic in his eyes that could not be hidden.

"Boss? What's wrong with you?" As far as he could remember, he seemed to have only seen her with this expression on her face on the first day she landed here, but it wasn't as serious as it was now.

Shi Jiu also knew that something was wrong with her. They were just meeting for a meal. She was invincible in her own territory, so why would she be afraid?

But her body's instinctive reaction made her nervous immediately, her breathing became rapid, and she held on to the sofa stool next to her and exhaled.

"It's okay, I'll take it easy." She looked at Qin Lou in front of her. He had a good appearance and strong working ability, but at this moment he was showing some nervousness, which was rare.

"Xiao Qin, why don't you take the others over for lunch? And find out why they're so anxious to come here. Anyway, I just want customers, I want people to stay here. Maybe we can take this opportunity..."

Qin Lou understood Shi Jiu's unfinished meaning. In fact, they came here in such a hurry just for those few things, but they couldn't just rush in and say that we have it, we can provide it, etc. It would be better to see what the other party's situation is first.

Qin Lou roughly guessed the reason why she was uncomfortable and agreed. It was not a big deal.

"Okay, boss. After dinner, I'll come and see them based on our needs. If there's anything feasible, I'll let them go to the conference room in the office building to discuss it if they're interested."

Qin Lou also gave a solution. After listening to it, Shi Jiu felt that there was basically no problem.

"Don't worry, if you have any questions, you can also send me a message directly. I might be observing it on the surveillance camera."

When Shi Jiu realized that he didn't need to face so many people, his body returned to normal and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but this was not a solution.

While eating breakfast, she asked 001, "What's wrong with my body? It wasn't like this before."

Before, she simply didn't want to speak in front of a crowd, was slow to warm up to friends, and wasn't very talkative. But why did her body react even more intensely now when she thought about all the things she had to do?

001 scanned the database and finally came to a conclusion.

"Host, it's possible that you traveled into this world and were mentally affected, which amplified certain traits. You can only overcome this on your own." 001 said helplessly. It didn't expect it to be so serious.

After Shi Jiu learned the reason, she felt very disappointed with herself. It was originally a small shortcoming of hers, but who knew it would be magnified?

"Well, I hope Xiao Qin can be more helpful and help me retain more people, so that I can have a chance of upgrading."

After several upgrades, she also figured out some patterns. Every time she upgraded, the occupied area would expand. It was hard not to wonder whether she would eventually occupy the entire city B, and even the neighboring city A was a possibility.

The expansion of the area is also beneficial for her collection of crystal cores. Yesterday, three thousand people contributed hundreds of thousands of crystal cores to her. Although she spent a lot of money on purchasing things in the middle, she made a profit overall.

Still need to upgrade! She clenched her claws and finished her breakfast. The lease notice for the fields hadn't been sent out yet, so she still needed to improve it.

By the way, the rewards for yesterday’s two activities should also be notified and sent out together.

The people in City A who were staying in Community No. 2 followed Captain Yang Tian and Yin Xue out in the morning and were surprised to find that the villa seemed to have changed.

But when they came in yesterday, it was already dark and they couldn't see the specific building clearly, so they all thought it was an illusion.

Finally, I followed the captain to the cafeteria. How come the layout was completely different from last night? Not only had the location changed, but it was now on the street outside, where it used to be in the main building's lobby.

There were quite a few people eating inside, and they seemed to be enjoying the meal.

When Yang Tian saw this cafeteria, he thought Yin Xue brought them to another cafeteria. With so many people in the villa, it was normal to have several different cafeterias.

As a result, Yin Xue himself looked at the map of the villa on his mobile phone with surprise. It showed that there were two canteens in the entire villa, which was obviously not the case yesterday.

And the plan above seems to have a lot more things than yesterday, like these factories and schools?!

He waited until they all went in and sat down to have breakfast before he quietly told Yang Tian about it. He was afraid that if he said it on the spot, many people behind him would start talking about it.

Yang Tian was also shocked when he learned about this situation, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Could it be that the meal we had last night was a sleight of hand?"

After he finished speaking, he received a strange look from Yin Xue. "Maybe this is the boss's special ability. I asked the people who have been living here a few days ago, and they all said that this place was not called a villa before, but a hotel. Moreover, the layout and area have been changed repeatedly, gradually becoming larger and larger."

Hearing Yin Xue's words, Yang Tian complained in his heart, isn't this just a trick? Could those experts be right? This place is really...

But he didn't say these words out loud. He silently asked his subordinates to finish breakfast and then go back to the dormitory to wait for the next instructions.

After returning, Yang Tian contacted the large group that set out this morning through the walkie-talkie.

"Yang Tian, ​​how are you guys doing over there?" The voice talking to him was deep and powerful, and Yang Tian was startled.

"Director, you are here too? I will go to greet you right away!" According to the original plan, shouldn't the deputy director come out with a group of experts, scholars and a team of psychics?

"Come out and take a look. So much time has passed, I almost forgot what the world outside is like." Li Sui sighed a few times, looking at the bridge in the distance, and then at the black and charred land that was partially exposed in the surrounding snow.

Behind them was a group of psychics wrapped in winter clothes, walking against the cold wind, but their faces and bodies were a little dirty.

The disinfectants currently developed by the institute, when used in conjunction with various instruments, can filter out water that can be boiled for drinking, but their efficiency is extremely low.

At most, I can allocate some drinking water to maintain the body's needs.

The cold wind was blowing, but even so they could smell a fishy stench in the air. The smell was everywhere, and it was even more obvious in the open space.

A large army of 7,000 people marched to the bridgehead and carefully crossed to the other side in batches.

Just when there was only one group left, Yang Tian came jogging over with his cell phone.

"Director..." Yang Tian stopped in front of them, still breathless.

"Hey! Why are you the only one here? Where are the others?" a team leader asked maliciously.

At first, he firmly believed that Yin Xue was fooled by this villa or something else happened. He didn't believe at all that such a perfect residence as he talked about would appear in City B.

But in the end, when the director ordered him to come over, he couldn't say anything more and volunteered to come, eager to expose the truth on the spot. Now he saw that there was only one person. Who would believe that there was no trick here?

"Are you being used as bait? I told you that inside..." Seeing that Yang Tian didn't refute him immediately, he became more certain that he was right. He was about to say a few more words smugly when he was suppressed by others.

"Qin Tian, ​​can't you let him speak slowly? Are you the only one with a big mouth?" Another team leader couldn't stand Qin Tian's appearance on weekdays.

After the end of the world came, he took advantage of his family's original wealth and the fact that he had stockpiled a lot of supplies, and donated them to become a small team leader. However, he was not very capable and he kept talking about those bad things every day.

"Yang Qi, you!" Qin Tian heard Yang Qi's words and realized that they were now outside the shelter and there were so many people up there. He felt weak for a moment and could only spit out a word in disappointment before shrinking back.

Humph! Don't think you can be partial to him just because you're his uncle. See how he tries to explain it. There must be something wrong with this villa!

Yang Tian ignored Qin Tian completely. He had seen his ugly face many times in the shelter before, so he could block out his nonsense.

"Director, we can follow the map on this phone and avoid the zombies to get to the villa. The people I brought with me are all in the villa and are helping to dispose of things. Besides, with this, I don't need to bring so many people out."

Yang Tian explained the reason, and everyone focused their attention on the phone he took out.

One of the scholars was a little confused, "Is this piece of thing a cell phone?"

Yang Tian unlocked his phone, opened the map, and handed it to Li Sui. "Director, would you like to take a look?"

Li Sui took the phone, the screen was lit up, and countless green dots were flashing on the map. He recognized that these were all human signs.

"Lead the way." Li Sui just took a look and returned it to Yang Tian. The focus now was still on the villa.

"Okay." Yang Tian didn't say any more nonsense, turned around and followed the map to the direction of the villa.

Along the way, everyone felt that everything in City B was no different from that in City A.

The same chaos, the same snow, the mud underfoot and the occasional stream flowing by were all filled with a polluted smell, and even the air had the same fishy stench.

It was not until they walked into the villa and looked up that they saw the four big characters "Sifang Villa" inlaid on the majestic and tall iron gate. The scenery inside was like two different worlds compared to the outside.

The author has something to say:

Shi Jiu: You've entered my villa and you still want to leave? Here you go!
