Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 67

The two kids went to school, and Gu Wanyin leisurely played on her computer in her room.

She wondered how the kids were doing in their classes.

She'd ask them when they came back for lunch at noon.

"System, are there any new tasks today?" Gu Wanyin asked.

The system didn't answer her.

Had it gone to the interstellar side again? But calculating the time, it shouldn't be the monthly ranking day in the interstellar realm yet...

It probably had some business to attend to.

Gu Wanyin felt a bit worried deep down, but she also thought that since the system had been ranking first every time recently and performing so well, the interstellar side would surely praise it, right?

Hopefully, nothing bad had happened.

When the system was away, the hotel's protection mechanisms and other functions still operated normally, so she wasn't too worried about the hotel.

At noon, Cola and Hamburger came back for lunch.

Since the school building was very close to the hotel, there was no need for a separate cafeteria at school. The students could just come back to the hotel for lunch.

"How were your morning classes?" Gu Wanyin asked.

"Really good! The teacher even praised me!" Hamburger said proudly, "The teacher said I was attentive in class and learned very quickly."

"Well done, Hamburger." Gu Wanyin patted her head, "How about you, Cola?"

"I was very attentive in class too!" Cola quickly said, "I just didn't learn as fast as my sister."

"That's alright," Gu Wanyin smiled, "Take your time."

After lunch, the two kids went for a nap, as they had afternoon classes.

Gu Wanyin felt a bit drowsy too, but couldn't fall asleep, worrying about the system.

It had been gone all morning and still hadn't returned.

It wasn't until the kids woke up from their nap and left for school that Gu Wanyin finally heard the system's weak voice: "Host, I'm back."

"You're finally back!" Gu Wanyin sighed in relief, "Did you go back to the interstellar side again? Did something happen?"

"It's all because of System 066, together with its professor, spouting nonsense about how we're not suitable for each other, and that according to data analysis, 066 is the most suitable for you! I spent half the day arguing with them at the Interstellar System Management Office."

There was too much information in this statement. Gu Wanyin organized her thoughts and asked, "System 066, is that the system from the horror world?"

"Yes, it's number 066, and I'm number 088."

Gu Wanyin: "Hmm, both your numbers are quite auspicious. And what's the deal with its professor?"

"Just some old geezer! Hmph, 066 was created by him, so of course he'd speak up for 066. If only my professor were here... They wouldn't have had a chance to speak!"

"Where did your professor go?"

"There was some trouble in another interstellar realm, it's in chaos, so he went to maintain order." The system said proudly, "My professor is really capable! With him around, no one would dare bully me! But unfortunately... I don't know when he'll be back."

Compared to a professor she didn't even know, Gu Wanyin was more concerned about the system. She frowned and asked, "They're not really going to separate us, are they? To bind me with another system? I don't want that. If possible, can I go to the Interstellar Management Office once? I want to make my stance clear."

"Host, you're so kind, but there's no need for now. I barely won the debate, so we don't have to separate."

Gu Wanyin's brow finally relaxed: "That's good. But it's always you making the effort, and I can't help at all. I feel a bit uneasy about that."

"It's alright, Host! As long as we can earn lots of points and always rank first, I'd like to see what they can say then! Oh, by the way, if you rank first for twenty consecutive times, you can visit the interstellar realm for a day!"

"Really? That's great!"

Gu Wanyin was curious to see what the technologically advanced interstellar realm looked like.

And those professors who could create all kinds of systems... How amazing must they be?

Of course, what she needed to do now was to earn more points.

That way, she wouldn't be forced to bind with another system.

"Ding! New task triggered: Serve a cumulative total of fifty customers in the cafeteria, customers cannot be repeated. Task rewards: All rooms on the ninth floor unlocked; all rooms on the eighth floor upgraded once; KTV and related facilities unlocked; Skewer restaurant and unlimited ingredients for the skewer restaurant unlocked. Note: All rooms on the ninth floor are presidential suites, room price increased to 100 points per day."

The system issued the task as usual, but Gu Wanyin felt something was odd.

"Isn't this task a bit too simple?"

After all, all the dishes in the cafeteria had already been unlocked, and Gu Wanyin felt dizzy with choices when selecting them. All kinds of home-style and specialty dishes were very popular among the guests.

Moreover, although the customers couldn't be repeated, there were far more than fifty guests in the hotel now.

Almost everyone would go to the cafeteria to eat.

This was even simpler than selling a hundred cups of milk tea or a hundred books.

The system said: "Before I came back, I applied to the System Management Office to lower the difficulty of the latest task for the host. I have this privilege after ranking first twice in a row."

"I see, you're so good to me."

The system remained silent.

It wouldn't tell Gu Wanyin that it was very afraid of losing her, afraid that she might really bind with another system...

...

In the evening, Gu Wanyin figured Cola and Hamburger would be getting out of school soon, so she wanted to go pick them up.

Although it was very close and there was no danger, it was still the kids' first day of school after all.

Just as she left the hotel lobby, she suddenly saw a skinny cat walk in through the hotel entrance.

Its round, big eyes were searching around the hotel, as if looking for food.

It was dirty all over, but looked quite clever.

"Where did this little cat come from?" Gu Wanyin was a bit surprised, "A cat actually survived in the apocalypse? Is this really just an ordinary cat?"

Although zombies didn't bite cats, even humans were short on supplies, so cats would have an even harder time finding food.

Moreover, there would be many natural disasters and mutant beasts in the apocalypse, so it was really not easy for ordinary animals to survive.

The system scanned and determined: "It is indeed an ordinary cat. The rules state that the host is allowed to keep pets, and pet-related food, clothing, etc. can be taken freely by the host, but the number of pets kept cannot exceed two."

Gu Wanyin did like cats quite a bit, and she felt that this cat's ability to survive in the apocalypse and accidentally enter the hotel was also a kind of fate, so she decided to keep it.

"Xu Shi, keep an eye on this cat. I'm going to pick up Cola and Hamburger from school, and I'll be back in a bit."

"Yes, boss," Xu Shi immediately replied.

The little cat's round eyes stared at her for a while, and even meowed once.
