Gu Yan looked at Shen Jing with confusion, not understanding why she was looking at him like that.
Shen Jing laughed when she saw Gu Yan's reaction. She had the strange feeling that he was a powerful figure who had switched careers to become a savior.
She suppressed her questions and turned to Zhang Ze, asking, "Where is the base's service area?"
"Then you've come to the right person. I need to go to the service center to submit my task now!"
"Shouldn't we go to the mission hall?" Or is it just a different way of calling it?
Zhang Ze replied, "This is a classified mission, haha."
Shen Jing responded with an "oh," thinking to herself that since it was a confidential mission, why was she saying it so casually?
This student is also a bit thick-skinned.
However, she had no interest in knowing the so-called secret.
The law of survival: the more you know, the faster you die.
As they passed a well-repaired building, Zhang Ze was suddenly grabbed by the hand.
"Zhang Ze! What are you still doing here! We need to regroup after we've finished the mission!"
"Oh? I have something to say..."
"Just say you're going to pick up girls! Hurry up, or the boss is about to yell at you!"
Zhang Ze could only look apologetically at Shen Jing, "My teammates are calling me, I have to go first."
Shen Jing nodded, "It's okay, you should go to the assembly point."
Hearing her cold words, Zhang Ze was led away by his teammates, looking back every few steps.
The service center was probably an office in the pre-apocalyptic world.
Surprisingly, the power supply in the hall had been restored, and the bright lights illuminated the people queuing up.
There were already quite a few people inside waiting to complete the rental procedures.
Holding the floor plan of the house, Shen Jing felt a sense of disorientation, as if she had returned to a sales office in a post-apocalyptic world.
"Miss, this three-bedroom apartment is only two bags of rice! There aren't many apartments like this anymore, so grabbing it is a steal!"
Shen Jing suspects that the staff members were selling houses before the apocalypse.
She looked at the floor plan and asked, "Which floor is it on?"
Power has been restored in only a few places, and almost all buildings in the complexes now lack elevators.
Upon hearing her words, the staff member immediately stopped talking and looked Shen Jing up and down.
Judging from her bulging backpack and the fact that the trailer, though covered with a cloth, must have contained a lot of supplies.
She continued to boast, "I can get you whichever floor you want!"
I was just saying that there aren't many properties this good anymore.
Shen Jing smiled and pointed to the one-bedroom apartment, asking her, "What about a single room? How many supplies do you need?"
The staff member's smile faded, and he frowned, saying, "It's very small; there's not enough room for the two of you..."
“We don’t live together,” Shen Jing interrupted her.
Ignoring Gu Yan's face, which darkened instantly, she continued, "Just find me a one-bedroom apartment on the top floor."
It doesn't matter that the elevator hasn't been restored; living on the top floor means you won't be disturbed by others.
Shen Jing thought of the door on the 20th floor of Jinyu Lanwan that had been photographed countless times.
It's so annoying... It would be best if we didn't have any neighbors!
The staff member flipped through the work order perfunctorily, saying, "Yes, we do, but the surrounding environment isn't very good."
Real estate agents usually start by showing you less desirable and harder-to-rent properties. If you're satisfied, great! But if not, no problem. They'll then introduce you to higher-priced properties that perfectly match your taste.
Shen Jing didn't want to beat around the bush and said directly, "I want the best single room."
That's more like it! A glint of light flashed in the staff member's eyes.
She immediately added enthusiastically, "This place! Although it's only a one-bedroom apartment, it's still 60 square meters!"
"Can."
"Okay, okay! I'll take you to see the house right now!"
Then she remembered Gu Yan, "Is this gentleman also looking to rent a house?"
Gu Yan pulled Shen Jing aside with a dark expression.
He looked like he desperately needed to be appeased, saying, "Didn't you promise to stay by my side?"
She added to her earlier statement: "What I mean by 'no difference' is that we didn't live together before, right?"
But Gu Yan stared intently at her, "No."
Shen Jing had no choice but to turn to the staff and ask if there were two adjacent single rooms.
This should be fine.
Gu Yan was still unhappy after hearing this.
The staff member was very good at reading people's expressions and immediately introduced another apartment: "This one was converted from a three-bedroom apartment. Now it's a large two-bedroom apartment, but the interior space has been individually designed."
She glanced at Gu Yan, handed the floor plan to Shen Jing, and continued, "Families rarely rent this kind of place because, apart from the main entrance, the interior is divided into two separate areas."
"It was because the landlord wanted to make it easier to rent out the property before the apocalypse, but in this kind of environment now, who would dare to share a place with someone else?"
Moreover, the staff member did not explicitly state that this house was not cheap.
Even without being told, Shen Jing could guess.
However, Gu Yan was quite satisfied with the floor plan. He said to Shen Jing, "Since it can be donated, it can also be used as rent."
Shen Jing wanted to say that she didn't need these supplies to cover the rent!
However, this house does retain personal privacy while also providing ample space to move around.
"Let's take a look at this one first."
"Okay! I'll go get the keys right away!" I never expected that this difficult apartment would actually be rented out!
The staff acted quickly, and everything was arranged in less than a few minutes.
On the way to the house, Shen Jing followed her, and many people wanted to find out about her trailer and how much supplies were inside.
Didn't you see how deep the tracks the tow truck left when it drove over the snow?
Arriving at the old residential building, I discovered that it wasn't as tall as the Golden Bay complex.
The building has only 11 floors, and the apartment that Shen Jing has her eye on is on the top floor.
