Chenghua District.
At the same time that Wang Xiao invited Yue Man to stay at the Peace Hotel, some of the survivors also received the message.
Inside a residential building not far from the Peace Hotel.
Those who remained with Yang Hua also received information about the opening of the Peace Hotel.
One of them asked in confusion, "Peace Hotel? Isn't that the hotel where Brother Yang and the others went?"
One of them took a sip from the bottle and slurred, "What's going on? Has Brother Yang already taken over the hotel?"
"What are we waiting for? Let's hurry and meet up with Brother Yang and the others!"
One of them glanced at two attractive women embracing in the corner and asked, "What should we do with these two women?"
Someone grinned wickedly and said, "Take them with you. They'll be ours once Brother Yang gets tired of them."
"it is good."
……
Chenghua District.
A mixed-use commercial and office building.
Inside an office.
A refined-looking man in a white suit was holding a coffee cup in one hand while looking at a message on his phone.
Outside the office, his followers were systematically disposing of the bodies in the office corridor.
Among them were zombies and humans, and many of the zombies had charred marks on their bodies.
Suddenly, a follower who had received the message knocked on the office door and came in.
"President Qin..."
Just as his followers were about to report the situation, Qin Huai'an suddenly interrupted, saying, "No need to say anything, I already know the situation."
"Mr. Qin, shall we go take a look?"
Qin Huai'an tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said, "Go, why not go? To dare to do such an absurd thing at a time like this, I'd like to see what's so special about the owner of this hotel."
The follower asked, "Mr. Qin, when do we depart? I'd like to make arrangements."
Qin Huai'an put down his coffee cup and said, "Tomorrow morning, just the two of us will be enough. The rest of you can stay at headquarters and clean up the remaining zombies and corpses in the building."
The follower asked worriedly, "President Qin, isn't it too dangerous for just the two of us?"
Qin Huai'an stood up, looked at the deathly silence outside the window, a wisp of silver electricity flashing between his fingers, and said in a deep voice, "Secretary Huang, times have changed. Now, quality over quantity is key, understand?"
The follower bowed his head and said, "Yes."
……
Chenghua District
Inside a supermarket that was severely damaged by the disaster.
A long-haired woman carrying a large bag and wearing a black coat was collecting supplies in the supermarket while looking at information on her phone.
Just as the woman was pondering the address above, a zombie suddenly darted out from the side.
Just when the zombie was looking forward to a good meal, its body was suddenly bound tightly by extremely thin steel wires, making it difficult to move.
The woman muttered, "Chenghua District, a fourth-tier city, doesn't seem too far from here. Should we go check it out?"
The zombie guy next to him watched the delicious food that was about to be eaten getting further and further away from him, and he started to roar in panic.
Hearing the zombie's roar, the woman turned around and said impatiently, "Shut up, I'm thinking..."
After saying that, the woman clenched her right fist. The poor zombie didn't even have time to discuss anything further with her before he was cut into pieces as the wire suddenly contracted.
"Let's go take a look."
……
As news of the opening of the Peace Hotel spread throughout Chenghua District, some people wanted to check it out, some scoffed, some were filled with longing, and some couldn't hide their greed.
In an instant, all the survivors in Chenghua District were mobilized because of the Peace Hotel, a hotel they had never heard of before.
the other side.
While Yue Man went back to his room to pack his things, Wang Xiao also planned to go to the parking lot to borrow a car from a helpful friend.
His little electric scooter can't carry two people.
As the elevator doors opened, Wang Xiao was about to go downstairs when Yue Man suddenly called out to him.
"etc."
Wang Xiao stopped and turned around to ask, "What's wrong?"
"Are you looking for your car? Here are my car keys. My car is in parking space number 48 in the underground parking lot."
Looking at the car keys in his hand, Wang Xiao asked curiously, "You can drive?"
Yue Man blinked and said honestly, "No."
Good grief, he was driving without a license.
Wang Xiao glanced at the luxury car emblem and said, "Then why did you buy a car?"
Yue Man casually replied, "You don't need a driver's license to buy a car. Besides, if I can't drive it myself, can't I ask someone else to drive it for me?"
Hearing Yue Man say this, Wang Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Ah, the world of the rich is still too complicated.
After accepting the key, Wang Xiao said, "Alright, I'll wait for you downstairs."
"Okay, thank you."
Wang Xiao hummed a little tune as he entered the basement. After walking a few steps, he saw the silver-white sports car parked in parking space number 48...
After pressing the switch and seeing the headlights respond, confirming that he hadn't picked the wrong car, Wang Xiao couldn't help but recall a widely circulated saying online.
Does this guy really own a mine?
This configuration and these modifications, no matter how you look at it, would have cost at least ten million before the apocalypse.
Wang Xiao is not a car fanatic. As someone who values efficiency above all else, his requirements are simple: as long as it can be driven.
But he was still somewhat excited when faced with such a heavily modified luxury car.
I sat in the driver's seat, and as the engine started to roar, I gently pressed the accelerator—oh, that damn push-back feeling!
In that instant, Wang Xiaoping felt a pang of envy for every wealthy person like Yue Man.
After briefly enjoying the pleasures of being rich before the apocalypse, Wang Xiao quickly lost interest.
After all, nowadays, no matter what kind of vehicle it is, except for those that can fire cannons or missiles, they don't really attract much attention to Wang Xiao.
Shortly after he drove his car to the entrance of Yinghua Hotel, Yue Man came out carrying a suitcase.
Just like that, she looks like she's practically wrapped up like a rice dumpling.
Looking at Yue Man, who was wearing more clothes than his suitcase was filled with, Wang Xiao said speechlessly, "Mr. Yue, isn't this a bit too much? Aren't you hot wrapped up like that?"
Yue Man shook his head and said, "It's alright, don't worry about me."
"Alright."
Since the parties involved had nothing to say, Wang Xiao naturally didn't bother to ask any more questions.
His only purpose was to abduct people, and now that he has succeeded, everything is fine.
Although the road conditions were somewhat complicated, it must be said that the car's performance and crash resistance were indeed quite good. At least occasionally, it wouldn't cause any major problems if it bumped into those zombie guys who were trying to stage an accident.
Looking at the blood-stained car body, Yue Man said with heartache, "My car... Boss Wang... couldn't you be a little more careful?"
Wang Xiao, with a cigarette in his mouth, said, "Mr. Yue, don't worry, if you break it, our hotel will replace it for you."
"Jinshi is such a big city, surely there's a good car out there?"
Yue Man looked doubtful: "You don't understand, this isn't about whether it's expensive or not, this is my favorite game collaboration product!"
"Mr. Wang, can your hotel really find it?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiao whistled as if he hadn't heard it.
Hehe, what are you whispering about?
What collaboration? Sorry, it was windy just now, I didn't hear you clearly...
