Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 92

Back then, he was starving mad, truly unable to control himself, and his own sister...

He had no choice, he just wanted to survive!

In this apocalyptic world, talk of humanity? It was simply a joke!

The Scarred Man shook his head, as if trying to drive that unpleasant memory from his mind.

"We'll continue tomorrow," the Scarred Man said coldly. "Kill a few more, and we'll surely get some vacant rooms."

"Hehe, I still have several Crystal Cores on me. We'll be able to live it up in the hotel for quite a while."

"If you ask me, Scarred Brother's idea is the best. We arrived so late, if we wait properly for vacant rooms, who knows how long that'll take? Killing is faster!"

The Scarred Man looked at the firelight, revealing a sinister and terrifying smile.

...

The next day, Bai Shuwen walked out of the hotel.

Other guests in the lobby saw her leave and felt a bit panicked.

"How dare she go out at a time like this? What if someone tries to kill her? And she's going out alone!"

"I heard she has level four abilities, she should be fine, right?"

"There are still people with higher abilities than her. Besides, if she encounters a group, even with level four abilities she might not win."

"She's too reckless..."

Bai Shuwen was naturally unaware of the other guests' discussions.

After leaving the hotel, she walked in a certain direction.

She looked around as she walked, seeming to be on guard against zombies, but also looking for valuable items that could be exchanged for more points.

She encountered a few people along the way, but they were all hurrying about. Even those who recognized her as a big pre-apocalypse celebrity didn't pay much attention.

At a time like this, people who hadn't secured a place in the hotel had no time to care about celebrities.

Bai Shuwen also walked hurriedly forward, but just as she passed by a collapsed building, suddenly, three men jumped out.

These three were none other than the Scarred Man, the Bald Man, and the Crew Cut Man.

"Well, if it isn't the big celebrity!" The Bald Man leered at her, looking her up and down.

Bai Shuwen frowned and asked coldly, "What do you want?"

"We just saw you leave the hotel and followed you all the way here. What do you think we want?" The Scarred Man started stretching his muscles. "Look, you've been staying in that hotel for so long, haven't you enjoyed it enough? Isn't it time to vacate the room for someone else?"

"If it were you, would you give up your room for others?" Bai Shuwen sneered.

The Crew Cut Man chuckled, "Of course not, but now, we're the ones without rooms! Don't blame us, blame that hotel for being too good, or blame your own bad luck!"

"Scarred Brother, we need to be careful. I heard this Bai Shuwen has some abilities," the Bald Man said quietly.

"What's there to be afraid of?" The Scarred Man boasted, "You two are level two, I'm level four. The three of us together can't handle one woman?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand, looking like he was about to use his ability.

At this moment, the Bald Man suddenly said with a grin, "Big Brother, since we're going to kill her anyway, why don't I... hehe... have some fun first?"

The Scarred Man looked at him incredulously, "At a time like this, you still have the mind to think about that?"

The Bald Man chuckled lecherously again.

If it were before, of course he wouldn't have. Back then, he was always thinking about how to find supplies, how to eat enough, where would he have such thoughts?

But now... because of the Peace Supermarket and the small restaurant, he didn't have to worry about food anymore. Plus, Bai Shuwen was such a beautiful woman, so naturally, his thoughts became active.

"That's enough! She has abilities! The three of us together can kill her, but you want to do that? Isn't that troublesome?"

"Scarred Brother, please!"

The Bald Man said as he walked towards Bai Shuwen with an evil smile.

"Miss Bai, beautiful lady, if you cooperate obediently, we might give you a quicker death. Otherwise, don't blame us three brothers for torturing you properly!"

Bai Shuwen ignored him and looked around.

"What are you looking at?" the Bald Man asked, "Don't tell me you're hoping someone will come to save you?"

"Don't be ridiculous!" the Crew Cut Man sneered, "At a time like this, where would you find such a good Samaritan? Give up that hope!"

Just as he finished speaking, they heard the sound of a car approaching.

This time, it was Bai Shuwen's turn to smile.

The Scarred Man frowned, suddenly feeling that something was off.

To be able to drive a car at a time like this, and at such a high speed...

Within seconds, a car rushed over and suddenly stopped in front of them.

The car door opened, and the person who got out was none other than Gu Wanyin.

The Scarred Man and his companions had all seen her at the hotel entrance before, and their faces changed instantly.

"Isn't this Boss Gu?" The Bald Man's face put on a fawning smile, "What wind has blown you here?"

Gu Wanyin's gaze calmly swept over their faces before she spoke, "I hear that recently, some people have been targeting my Peace Hotel's guests outside, trying to get vacant rooms in this manner?"

The Scarred Man laughed dryly and said, "Boss Gu, you manage such a large hotel, you must be busy every day. Do you really need to concern yourself with such a small matter?"

"A small matter?" Gu Wanyin raised an eyebrow, "Everyone in the hotel is living in fear, not daring to go out to find Crystal Cores or valuable items. The Peace Hotel is no longer peaceful for them. You think this is a small matter?"

If the guests were killed by zombies outside the hotel, or met with some natural disaster, that would indeed be beyond her management scope, and she couldn't go around the world saving people every day.

But if people were killing for hotel rooms... that was related to her.

If she continued to ignore it, causing panic among the people, who would trust the Peace Hotel in the future?

Moreover, if guests didn't dare to go out to find things to exchange for points, they wouldn't dare to consume, and she would earn fewer points...

So, these three men had to be dealt with.

"We have no choice," the Scarred Man said through gritted teeth. "Who doesn't want to stay in the hotel? If we can't get a vacant room, what else can we do? Boss Gu, you don't think this is still a society governed by law, do you? Killing in the apocalypse is the most normal thing! We just want to survive! Maybe we're too selfish, wanting to exchange others' lives for our own... but if it were someone else, can you guarantee they wouldn't do the same? Let me tell you, actually, many people have the same idea as us, they just haven't dared to act on it yet!"

"Hmm." Gu Wanyin nodded. "What you say seems to make some sense, but I think I wasn't clear earlier. Indeed, in the current environment, everyone is forced by circumstances, so no matter how many people you kill outside the hotel, it's none of my business. But your current actions have already infringed upon the hotel's interests... understand? Actually, I originally didn't want to say so much to you, but I thought, I should at least let you die with understanding."

As soon as she finished speaking, the faces of the three men instantly changed!
