Because shopping malls don't distinguish between day and night, the abundant lighting makes people forget the passage of time.
Cheng Shuang calculated that there was a difference of about 12 hours between the hamburger card dropping the hamburger and the repairman skill condensing the powder. Considering their own 24-hour cooldown, she calculated that at least 50 hours had passed, which was almost two days and two nights.
"Shall we go eat?" The little girl touched her stomach, feeling empty at the thought that she had only eaten three proper meals in 50 hours.
Liu Juan, who had been somewhat sullen, suddenly smiled. She patted the little girl's head and said affectionately, "Baby, has your stomach opened up to another dimension? Two bananas aren't enough?"
"I'm growing taller!" Cheng Shuang said earnestly. "I think I've grown several centimeters in this period of time!"
Everyone...
Child, this is just your illusion!
Regarding the issue of height, in order not to dampen the child's enthusiasm, everyone remained silent. Du Jun directly responded to her request for food, turning his head to ask the others, "To a Western restaurant?"
These days, there are fewer maintenance workers walking around shopping malls, and their mental state isn't as bad as before. It's clear that while they're spending time in gyms, these maintenance workers have realized the importance of leaving the shopping mall to rest.
Everyone agreed that while Western restaurants were expensive, they saved them the trouble of searching for restaurants with hourly room discounts. They could simply get the free hourly room vouchers and book the room directly, which was more reassuring than anything else.
"We can discuss our next steps while we eat." The yoga studio patient, who had taken the white pill, was no longer tired. Sun Han frowned, considering whether to continue trying to complete all ten items on the shopping voucher.
The shopping center has an investment promotion office, etc. I wonder if there will be any unexpected gains.
The group arrived at the Western restaurant. There were significantly more staff than on their first visit, likely aware of the importance of points in the shopping mall. Despite the crowd, there was no queue. Three tables were scattered around, each with two or three people, looking tired and eating listlessly. Clearly, the food was secondary; they were after the hourly room vouchers.
Upon seeing the six defenders walk in in a row, the people at the three tables all looked up, their eyes filled with both wariness and surprise.
Cheng Shuang noticed that the three tables of people were sitting very far apart, as if they were afraid of bumping into other maintainers. It seemed that the more maintainers there were, the more complex the situation became, and the more unpredictable people's hearts were.
The chances of this death zone cooperating with people at other rest stops are extremely low.
Upon entering the store, the plastic waiter recognized the little girl. Seeing that there were two more people, it asked familiarly, "Is it the same original price set meal as last time?"
"Yes, five servings, please." The little girl said with a smile.
Liu Juan hesitated for a moment, then took out the name tag. "If I use this, will the hourly room discount still apply?"
"Ah, an employee!" The plastic waiter looked at Liu Juan with surprise, then paused suspiciously, no longer paying attention to Cheng Shuang, and said in a soft voice, "Don't we have free employee meals? Oh, I see, you invited your friends to dinner!"
Before Liu Juan could say anything, it continued, "Of course I have some. For the sake of a beautiful lady, I can give you two more."
Liu Juan was slightly taken aback. The advantage brought by the assimilation skill this time was truly surprising. After the waiter left with light steps, she suppressed her excitement and asked in a low voice, "Has my skill improved in this death domain?"
"No, it should be your face..." Du Lanshan's eyes were filled with complex emotions as he sighed deeply, "How beautiful must it be!"
His words carried a hint of regret at not being able to admire the stunning beauty.
Liu Juan grinned menacingly at him, then raised her fork and made two mock stabs into his eyes.
Du Lanshan immediately straightened his attitude, "We have different tastes. In my eyes, Juan is the kind of girl who grows on you, hahaha..."
In many people's minds, praising a woman for being attractive is almost the same as praising her for being cute. That means she's outside the realm of beauty and there's nothing left to praise!
Du Lushui rolled her eyes at her brother, thinking it would have been better not to praise him at all, since Liu Juan's face looked even uglier!
He wondered how his brother had developed such a talent for showering him with compliments. He suspected that if things continued like this, his brother would have to stay single forever.
Sun Han touched his nose. He hadn't quite mastered the art of praising women, so he turned his head away, avoiding Du Lanshan's pleading gaze.
As for Cheng Shuang, she was staring longingly at the kitchen area, completely unaware of the commotion at the dinner table, while Du Jun was busy unfolding disinfectant wipes to clean her hands...
Du Lanshan: Cunning!
The waiter kept his word and gave Liu Juan two more free hourly room vouchers, making a total of seven. Adding the one Cheng Shou had left, there were eight free vouchers, each extending the stay to eight hours. There were two rooms, one for men and one for women, which could be used for four nights if there were enough rooms available.
Liu Juan expressed her gratitude and bought the waiter a cup of coffee.
The waiter was in a good mood and suggested, "If you can't finish the dessert, I can pack it up for you. Our restaurant's food can be eaten in your hotel room, but it's best to avoid anything soupy or watery."
This meal cost 1,300, which doesn't amount to much when divided into points.
They ate while quietly discussing their next steps.
The leasing office, or similar internal departments related to the shopping center's administration and human resources, is most likely located in an office building. If you have the opportunity, it would be worthwhile to explore it. However, timing is crucial. After get off work hours are not an option, as the office is locked, and during work hours, you risk being kicked out.
So they scheduled it for lunchtime, when white-collar workers usually have their lunch break.
When Cheng Shuang first arrived in this death zone, she stayed in the office for a full four hours before they finally got off work.
Now that more than fifty hours have passed, the office building should be in the off-hours period.
"How are you feeling? Should we go get some sleep first, or explore the movie theater, the haunted house, and the children's play area?" Sun Han asked.
"I think it's good," Cheng Shuang replied. She expended the least energy at the gym, while Xiong Baobao used his superhuman strength and protective shield. If she went to the children's play area alone, at least her safety wouldn't be a problem. Besides, Uncle Sun had already given her a heads-up, so the children's play area wouldn't be difficult for her.
The others nodded in agreement, none of them really wanting to waste time sleeping.
"Then let's take action!"
Sun Han and Du Jun went to the movie theater, and Du Lushui lent them the Jump Jump card.
The Du brothers and Liu Juan went to the haunted house, and Sun Han lent them the 'behavior pattern card' that helped him pass the test.
In simple terms, behavior pattern cards are mirror cards. Whether it's a person or a ghost, everyone thinks they are seeing a mirror, and the reactions of the person in the 'mirror' and the ghost outside the 'mirror' can be synchronized.
Aside from Sun Han, everyone else was a little worried about Cheng Shuang. Du Jia waved his hand, "Any of you going would just cause trouble. The first rule of the children's play area is that adults are not allowed to enter, and parents must register if accompanied by a child! I pretended to be a parent of a plastic child and gave that plastic kid a lot of snacks, which barely prevented me from violating the first rule, and I was eliminated right at the beginning. Don't even mention what happened after that; I was almost driven crazy by those plastic kids!"
Okay!
The group first escorted the little girl to the entrance of the children's play area before turning to leave.
