Shi Jiu wiped away the fine beads of sweat on her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. She finally got back within three hours. The rewards for the small dark room were also distributed to the warehouse. She looked at the many scumbags in a miserable state behind her, and she had an idea and decided to place the small dark room near the farmland.
There is still some vacant space next to that area, so there is no need to open up a new area for separate accommodation for the time being.
"Huh~ We're finally back!" Many people in the crowd looked at the big sign of the hotel and felt much more at ease. On the way back just now, there were more zombies and mutated animals than when they went there before, and their attack power was much stronger.
Even though Shijiu's protection circle has been enhanced, there are still many ordinary people who need protection, and the pressure is a lot greater. Now that everyone can come back safely, many people are relieved.
"Boss, what should we do with these people?" After Wang Yue broke free from the cage, her depression disappeared. Being able to take revenge was already a pleasant surprise for her, and now she could find a place to settle down, so she had no regrets in her life.
Looking at the disgusting scum behind her, she resisted the urge to chop them with the knife in her hand.
"There is a small dark room in the hotel. Just throw them in there." Shi Jiu opened the small dark room and planned to throw them in there temporarily. She would decide how to deal with them later after she had a rest and then look at the relevant operations of the small dark room.
"Let's go! Let's go in and complete the mission. We can have a good meal today, hehe!"
"I need to buy more clothes!"
…
Many guests happily entered the hotel while discussing the matter. This mission seemed difficult, but the actual operation was better than expected. There were no casualties. At most, their superpowers were consumed a bit. Some of them were just ordinary people. This time, if they took a chance, their bicycles would become motorcycles!
"Come on, if the boss wasn't here, we would have been defeated long ago!" The experienced psychics clearly felt the difficulty of the mission itself. If it weren't for Shi Jiu, it would be great that they could come back together.
Some of them were inexperienced, and the reason they took on the task was to earn more money. The ease of going back and forth unconsciously changed their mentality, and they really thought they were capable.
After hearing this, the anger and shame of their shattered illusions reminded them of the broken bodies on the roadside and the fear of facing zombies. These bad memories were brought back to mind, and many people instantly closed their mouths with pale faces.
Shi Jiu ignored all this. It had been so long since the end of the world, and he had already known everything he needed to know. The reason he still couldn't face those things was either because he was avoiding them and didn't dare to face them, or because he was protected too well and didn't have to face them.
"Just throw them all into that small dark room, and let's go in to settle the mission." Shi Jiu gave the order, and the team was crammed in without even removing the supernatural powers tied to their hands.
Wang Yue felt refreshed when she saw their angry and unwilling eyes, but they didn't dare to say much. However, she looked at the surface of the small dark room and found it was plain, and it didn't look like there was anything inside.
"Don't worry, you won't die in there." Shi Jiu saw her concerns. How could she let these people eat for free?
Then he looked at the group of girls behind him. Although they were rescued, the previous environment had a huge impact on them, and they could not get rid of the torment of those memories for a while.
"Do you have crystal cores?" Although she was kind enough to rescue them and of course had the mission, her hotel had to be paid for, and she had no reason to provide them with a one-stop service.
"I...we have some!" A girl in front timidly raised her hand, holding a bag tightly in her hand.
"This, this is what we found nearby when we just escaped. Do you want it, boss?" Wang Yue explained the rules of the hotel when she rescued them. How could they not know the importance of this crystal core? After learning that those people had been captured, they relied on their good memory and took away all the crystal cores in the villa in a little time.
Shi Jiu was a little surprised, she thought there was nothing.
"Boss, I asked them to look for it." Wang Yue thought Shi Jiu was thinking about the time, and quickly added, "We didn't waste time. I only asked them to look for it for five minutes." Who knew that they seemed to know the structure of the villa very well, and found it in no time, with basically no effort.
Shi Jiu looked at their nervous faces and said, "It's okay. These crystal cores are yours. I run a hotel. Although I rescued you, I can't pay for your accommodation. Go in and book a room at the front desk. And by the way, go to the treatment machine for a check-up."
The matter was almost resolved. She looked at the guests leaving and called out to Wang Yue who wanted to go to the front desk to help.
"Wang Yue, come with me." Shi Jiu called her and walked to the rest area next to her.
"Boss, what's going on?" Wang Yue looked confused. Did he want her to teach those scumbags a lesson? Thinking of that scene, her pretty face showed an eager expression, and she was already thinking of some way to do it.
"Come and sit down. Don't you have anything to say to me?" Although the mission was completed this time, Wang Yue's strange behavior at noon and her previous actions could be solved at once.
"I..." Wang Yue sat opposite her cautiously, and immediately came out of her excited state. Recalling her behavior last night, and then meeting Shi Jiu's calm eyes, her face turned pale.
She was so happy that she forgot everything. Wang Yue hesitated for a few seconds. If she didn't say it out loud, it would always be a knot in her heart.
"Boss, I'm going to be honest with you and apologize. I had my own selfish motives when I told you about this gang last night." Wang Yue spoke with her eyes almost closed and her voice trembling, as if she was digging out her not-so-glorious side.
"When the hotel appeared beside me and helped me, I had already thought of it... I wanted the hotel to get rid of this gang. I simply don't have the ability to eradicate them, so I said so much." This was the method Wang Yue thought of after encountering the electronic sound and stabbing the man to escape.
Shi Jiu looked at her, "I admit that what you said last night was very impactful, but what if I disagree?" Sympathy for the weak and providing help are both normal human psychology, but the selfishness in human nature will always overwhelm other things in the face of danger and difficulties.
Wang Yue's breathing stagnated. "I didn't think about it. My mind was in a mess at the time. Stabbing the person in charge felt like half of my revenge was already achieved, and it felt so relaxing, so..."
"So you take it for granted that since I'm so powerful and I even saved you from your life, I can do the same to others. Even if I disagree at first, as a girl, you'll always make me agree if you keep bringing it up, right?"
Shi Jiu's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing into her brain fiercely and stirring it a few times, making her dizzy, trembling all over, and sweating profusely.
She actually knew!
