Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 36

"You see, host, both you and the original owner of this body were lucky ones randomly selected by the interstellar system. According to your original fate trajectories, you were both supposed to die."

Gu Wanyin: "!"

That's right, if she hadn't crossed over and bound to the system, the Gu Wanyin in the book would have been bitten to death by zombies right away!

But what about her? Her original world was fine, and she was fine too!

"How would I have died?" Gu Wanyin asked.

"Car accident."

Gu Wanyin: "..."

"Because the interstellar system chose you both, you were given the right to continue living. But there's always a price to pay. Your consciousnesses couldn't remain in your original bodies, so you crossed over to here, while the original owner of this body crossed over to your original body."

"Oh, so we basically swapped places."

"Yes, usually it's not an exact swap like this. You two are a coincidence. She's doing quite well now. She's bound to a strategy system, and since you were originally a college student, her task is to conquer the four most popular guys at your school!"

Gu Wanyin sighed: "Thank goodness I crossed over."

If she had to do that task of conquering popular guys, she wouldn't be able to handle it.

However, knowing that the original owner was doing well made her feel relieved.

"But what about Cola and Hamburger? According to the original trajectory, they were supposed to die too, but now they're alive without crossing over," Gu Wanyin asked, puzzled.

"That's an additional reward from the interstellar system. Children under ten can be included in the additional rewards."

"I see."

"Anyway, you'll be fine as long as you manage the hotel well. Last month's rankings had me in first place, and the system she's bound to in second! We need to work hard and not lose!"

"Alright!"

...

Gu Wanyin went to check out the newly unlocked rewards.

The clothing store was also on the first floor, and it was huge, with all kinds of men's, women's, and children's clothing available.

Of course, the prices of the clothes varied greatly. There were cheap ones and expensive ones.

The cheapest could be bought for eight points, but they were very simple with ordinary fabric.

The expensive ones cost dozens or even hundreds of points, with some over a thousand. But regardless of style, fabric, or pattern, they were all exquisite.

Gu Wanyin thought that the clothing store would definitely be a good place to earn points.

After all, people with special abilities like Fu Siheng and Bai Shuwen could easily obtain Crystal Cores and cared about their appearance, so they would definitely buy some expensive clothes.

Ordinary people in the apocalypse, having worn dirty clothes for so long, would surely want to buy some new clothes to wear.

Sure enough, as soon as they heard about the clothing store being unlocked, Bai Shuwen was the first to come.

She browsed for a while and finally picked out a dress for three hundred points.

Fu Siheng also came and got a set of casual wear for two hundred points.

Zhuang Xiaoxia only took a T-shirt and pants for about ten points each.

Dong Yue thought for a while and then gritted her teeth and got the same price range as Zhuang Xiaoxia.

After all, she really couldn't stand her dirty clothes anymore.

Many guests were browsing in the clothing store.

Bai Shuwen asked Gu Wanyin expectantly: "Manager Gu, is there a shoe store? I want to buy shoes too! Oh, and bags and cosmetics!"

After all, she was a big star before the apocalypse and cared most about her image.

There was no choice in the apocalypse, but now that life in the hotel was pretty good, she naturally wanted to dress up again.

"Not yet, but they will be unlocked one by one in the future," Gu Wanyin smiled.

"Great, I'll go out and kill zombies tomorrow to get more Crystal Cores in reserve!"

Bai Shuwen happily went back to her room to try on her new dress.

Gu Wanyin hadn't even worn all the clothes in her wardrobe yet, so she wasn't very interested in the clothing store.

She went to check the cabinet again, and found that Zhen Zhen, walnut milk, green tea, Mizone, and Red Bull had been added. The cafeteria now had stir-fried bok choy, fish head with flatbread, beef on iron plate, salt-water duck, and egg drop soup with seaweed.

The snail noodle shop was next to the rice noodle shop. Although snail noodles have a strong odor, the smell definitely wouldn't spread out of the shop.

The prices in the snail noodle shop were similar to the rice noodle shop. Besides various flavors of snail noodles, there were also fried eggs and various braised snacks.

Gu Wanyin hadn't had snail noodles in a long time, so she went in and ate a bowl of extra smelly and spicy snail noodles, adding a fried egg and braised duck feet.

She thought her hair and body would surely smell of snail noodles after eating, but surprisingly, the odor seemed to disappear automatically shortly after leaving the shop!

"Ding! New task unlocked: Recruit five guests. Note: The five guests have identity restrictions - their pre-apocalypse occupation must be teachers. Task rewards: Unlock rooms 501-505; Upgrade rooms 401-405 once; Unlock the second elevator; Unlock one supermarket; Unlock hamburger and fried chicken shop, unlock unlimited menu items from the hamburger and fried chicken shop; Note: After unlocking the supermarket, bread, milk, drinks, instant noodles, etc. in the cabinet will be transferred to the supermarket. The supermarket will have other items to be unlocked; Additionally, all rooms on the fifth floor are family rooms, with a maximum occupancy of six people per room."

Gu Wanyin thought that the sudden requirement for new guests to be teachers might be in preparation for unlocking a school in the future.

Other shops could be selected and consumed by guests themselves, then they would swipe their cards. The system wouldn't allow guests to take things for free anyway, so there was no need to specially recruit employees.

But a school was different. It still needed teachers.

Then if people became teachers at the school later, would the system pay them salaries?

Wait a minute! Gu Wanyin suddenly noticed some differences between this task and previous ones.

Before, the system would always say "recruit five new guests," but this time it said "recruit five guests."

Could it be...

"System, if there are already guests living here who were teachers before the apocalypse, do they count towards this task?"

"Yes, host."

Gu Wanyin immediately asked Xu Shi to inquire if any guests were teachers before the apocalypse.

Sure enough, Fu Siheng's brother Fu Sishu and Dou Mei, who lived in room 207, were both teachers before the apocalypse. Fu Sishu taught high school math, and Dou Mei taught elementary school English.

Looking at it this way, if she could get three more guests who were teachers before the apocalypse, this task would be completed.

...

At Muruo Base.

Gu Chengyu and An Cairou were having dinner.

An Cairou was eating steak. She cut off a piece and put it in her mouth, making the maid beside her swallow hard with envy.

"Sigh, it's really not comparable to the taste before the apocalypse," An Cairou sighed.

Gu Chengyu said sympathetically: "There's no helping it, Rourou... The chef has already done his best."

"I know, Brother Chengyu. Maybe it's because I'm not in a good mood right now. I'm always worried about Ming Yu, wondering how he's doing in the hotel."
