Chapter 27: All members present
Late at night, the snoring of Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona, one after another, formed a symphony of fate, disturbing Song Yuqing's sleep. Song Yuqing tossed and turned, gnashing his teeth and got up, wanting to call Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona to get up and go back to sleep.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Gaha lying in the corridor, counting on his fingers how many times Liu Xiaona and Xiao Roubao snored in total.
"Gaha~" Gaha complained to Song Yuqing that these two snoring people were so annoying that his ears were about to break.
Song Yuqing understood. Yes, she also found these two people annoying!
Song Yuqing knocked on the doors of Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona's rooms one by one, but unfortunately, Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona were sleeping so soundly that they automatically blocked out the knocking sounds.
Song Yuqing felt helpless: "Master Fu! Can you add sound insulation to the room?"
"It's impossible now. You can only do it when you complete your task this month." Master Fu said ruthlessly.
Gaha looked at Song Yuqing with sympathy. As a zombie, Gaha slept just for the fun of life, while Song Yuqing, as a human being, would die if he didn't sleep.
"Gaha~" Gaha shook his head, and the ends of his purple hair swayed.
"Come on, Gaha, I'll braid your hair." Song Yuqing wanted to find something to do, otherwise, she would have to smash the doors of Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona's rooms.
Gaha obediently found a chair and sat down, letting Song Yuqing fiddle with his head.
Song Yuqing found a crochet hook and rubber bands, divided Gaha's hair into several areas, and started with the roots of one area. He used the crochet hook to repeatedly hook and pull Gaha's hair, making the strands of Gaha's hair entangled together.
"Gaha?" Gaha felt that Song Yuqing wanted to vent a little.
Gaha's original long black straight hair turned into a big dirty braid under Song Yuqing's magic hands.
"Okay, from now on, you are the most awesome zombie!" Song Yuqing stroked Gaha's hair with satisfaction. This was her dream hairstyle. If she had less hair, she would have gotten the same one.
"Gaha..." Gaha felt a little sorry for her scalp, it was so tight. She hoped her hair would fall out because she was a zombie and couldn't grow hair.
After tying Gaha's hair, Song Yuqing fell asleep at dawn and slept until the afternoon.
When she woke up, the doors to the God's Supermarket were already open. Little Meat Bun and Liu Xiaona were sitting together eating their bento boxes, while Gaha was sifting through bamboo leaves, lost in thought. After a good night's rest, Liu Xiaona had recovered considerably, her skin feeling much fresher.
Before Liu Xiaona could say something like "Why do you sleep so late?", Song Yuqing spoke first and gave Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona a good scolding, asking them not to snore in the future.
this……
Liu Xiaona and Xiao Roubao were both silent.
"How about we wait until you fall asleep before we go to sleep?" Liu Xiaona scratched her head embarrassedly, "We'll try to be quiet."
Little Meat Bun scratched his head: Huh? How can I control the volume of my snoring?
"Okay. The second thing," Song Yuqing paused, glancing at the three shop assistants, "I'm going to assign everyone future work tasks."
Hey, I feel relaxed again!
According to Song Yuqing's arrangement, Song Yuqing was responsible for the store's purchases, handling customer complaints and special situations, Xiao Roubao was responsible for being the mascot and security, Gaha was responsible for cleaning the store and night patrols, and Liu Xiaona was responsible for front desk reception, cashiering, merchandise display, and...
"Chef?" Song Yuqing asked tentatively. She couldn't let the panda and the zombies be the chefs while she could only cook instant noodles. Since there was so much raw meat and vegetables, it would be a shame not to cook something fresh.
Liu Xiaona patted her chest and said, "Sure! Leave the food to me! I guarantee it will be delicious!"
That’s right, don’t underestimate me, I, Liu Xiaona, can cook very well!
Song Yuqing didn't doubt it, but Liu Xiaona still explained. Raised in an orphanage, he'd been a delivery driver before the apocalypse, working under the weather. To keep up with orders, he'd do anything completely unrelated. For example, if a vendor was slow and a dish wasn't ready, Liu Xiaona would squeeze into the kitchen and cook the food herself. Gradually, his cooking skills blossomed.
"Then you will have to work hard in the future." After listening to Liu Xiaona's story, Song Yuqing unconsciously admired Liu Xiaona more.
"Gaha..." Gaha scratched her head, a memory flashing through her mind. In the memory, she was a kitchen helper in a big restaurant, being ordered around.
Song Yuqing took out four tomatoes, one for Gaha, Xiao Roubao, Liu Xiaona and herself.
"This is a fruit that can enhance superpowers. We will eat one a day from now on."
"There is such a good thing?" Liu Xiaona swallowed a tomato in one bite, eating faster than the little meat bun.
Song Yuqing took a bite of the tomato; it was sweet, a little sour, and refreshing. She felt the energy surging within her body. Unlike the fiery heat she felt after absorbing the crystal core, after eating the tomato, the energy within her body was like waves, one after another, and the energy accumulated layer by layer in the rolling waves.
Gaha held the tomato and sniffed it. She hadn't eaten since she became a zombie.
"Try it!" Song Yuqing encouraged Gaha to try bravely.
Gaha closed his eyes, opened his mouth wide and took a bite of the tomato, and his long-dead taste buds began to revive.
"Gaha! Gaha!" If Gaha still had tear glands, she could act like she was crying.
——I declare that tomatoes are my favorite fruit, no, vegetable, um...
After finishing the tomatoes, Song Yuqing unloaded some supplies from the space and, along with Liu Xiaona, arranged them on the shelves. Xiao Roubao and Gaha wanted to help, but they had no idea how to display the merchandise, so they placed the items in a haphazard manner, forcing Song Yuqing and Liu Xiaona to rearrange them by category.
"Oh, that's not how it should be displayed. Not only do you have to classify them, but you also have to consider the color matching... Hey, there's no sense of hierarchy if you display them like that, and it doesn't highlight the key points..." Liu Xiaona kept talking. Even though Song Yuqing's family had run a convenience store for more than 20 years, no one understood the display and presentation of goods as well as Liu Xiaona did.
"Gaha..." Gaha knew that he couldn't help, so he pulled the little meat bun into the bamboo forest to play.
Little Meat Bun: I won’t play with you.
Beep beep beep——
The impatient sound of car horns broke the silence in the alley.
A modified car rushed in from the alley entrance, rubbing against the low wall of the alley all the way, heading straight towards the God's Supermarket.
"Gaha! Gaha!" Gaha shouted loudly and ran into the store to inform Song Yuqing.
The little meat bun who was originally lying down stood up and entered a defensive state.
Song Yuqing was confused and was dragged outside by Gaha. Liu Xiaona's heart tightened, and she dropped the supplies in her hands and ran to the door.
The bamboo leaves rustled, as if blown by a strong wind.
Song Yuqing watched helplessly as the modified car rushed into the alley and collided between the low walls. Even the best protective equipment was useless at this point, making the modified car look like a bumper car in an amusement park.
"Gaha! Gaha!" Gaha widened his eyes. It was so exciting!
A large stream of water flew in from outside the alley and hit the modified car fiercely. The modified car lost its center of gravity and fell sideways, with the window glass shattered all over the ground.
Several men ran in from the alley and headed straight for the modified car. Over a dozen guns flew out of the car, perhaps controlled by gold-type psychics, and fired at the men chasing them.
"Bang bang bang—" the gunshots were deafening.
"Come in!" Song Yuqing shouted, and the shop assistants jumped back into the Supermarket of God.
As Liu Xiaona jumped back, she felt something was amiss. It had only been a day at the God's Supermarket, so why was he so timid? In the past, he would have just watched from the sidelines, dragging Sister Qin along to judge who was right and who was wrong. But today, faced with a fight, he felt a little timid...
No, this is called cherishing life.
When there are precious things in life, death is a sin.
