Gu Tongwan was strolling alone here. There were indeed a lot of restaurants here. The street was lined with shops about 200 meters ahead. Most of the shops in the front were for food, and a small number in the back seemed to be clothing stores that specialized in custom-made clothing or selling ready-made clothes.

The price is actually similar to that in the business district, after all, they are both in the inner circle. However, compared with the outer circle, the prices of restaurants and other stores are about 30% higher.

She didn't plan to walk too far. She stopped in front of a store where there was still a queue and found out that it was a freshly squeezed juice shop. The prices were not very expensive, basically within ten points. Compared with the expensive juices on the commercial street that cost ten or twenty points per cup, the prices here were considered reasonable. Moreover, they were offering a promotion for half price for the second cup, probably to boost sales.

There were a lot of people queuing up, with about a dozen people in front, mostly young girls. They were not dressed badly, at least their clothes were neat and clean. Some even had new clothes and new skirts, and it was obvious that they were from a well-off family or had good jobs.

The store is very small, only about ten square meters. Basically, the operation room occupies two-thirds of the space. However, there are two large parasols outside the store, and two plastic tables and five or six chairs are placed underneath, which have been occupied by people. The drinks are served in disposable plastic cups, which is quite particular. However, the price of disposable plastic cups is twice as expensive as bringing your own cups.

I heard that the base now has its own plastic processing plant, but the production of plastic products is limited. All takeout tableware is not only limited in quantity but also expensive. For example, a cup of juice actually only costs five points, but if you choose to use a disposable cup in the store for takeout, the price will be three points more. So when you are queuing, you can see many young girls holding colorful cups.

People all have the so-called "if there are many people lining up, then this store must have something special" mentality. Although Gu Tongwan doesn't think that the juice sold in the store can compare to the thousands of cups of milk tea and juice stored in her own space, some of the things in the space will always be consumed one day, and it is impossible for her to take out the milk tea that no one in the base has ever seen in front of the second person. Not to mention the taste of the milk tea, there are still several chain brand packaging printed on it before the end of the world.

After thinking for a while, Gu Tongwan simply followed the two girls in front of her and lined up. After a while, four or five young people followed her. It seemed that this juice shop was indeed very popular, but it might also be because it was almost four o'clock and some companies and enterprises had already left work early.

Except for a few units that implement a two-day weekend system, most companies in the base actually adopt a one-day weekend system. In addition, they must get off work before 4:30 p.m. every Wednesday. Unless they are in special industries, overtime or work at night is not allowed in the base, because at night, in addition to the possibility of being attacked by mutant beasts, there may also be the invasion of unknown black fog, as well as killing, burning, looting, and other phenomena.

Currently, there is a shortage of Self-Defense Force members in the base. Except for the strict martial law during the previous hunting conference when no serious incidents occurred, with the end of the hunting conference, the internal management of the Self-Defense Force began to relax. In the past two days, robberies have occurred frequently, especially in the outer circle. The base government even issued online notices and broadcasts, warning residents to minimize going out at night, remember to lock the doors and windows, and stay outside less at night. Posters were also posted on the roadside, stating that signs of invasion by mutant rats have been found recently, and the base health department must be prepared for rat extermination. Residents can go to designated disinfection stores or supply and marketing cooperatives during the day to purchase rat extermination products, including special rat poisons, mousetraps, and mouse cages.

Maybe it was because Gu Tongwan was not wearing a mask, so the people around him were amazed when they occasionally glanced at him.

She didn't feel too much. She just took out her cell phone and sent a message to Liao Yunyun, saying that she was queuing to buy drinks and might need another ten minutes to come back.

Liao Yunyun made an "OK" gesture.

Some people began to talk quietly behind her back, feeling that she looked familiar but unable to tell where they had seen her.

In fact, the video of her hunting a Saker Falcon at a hunting meet will soon be removed from the base. As for the reason, the base said that the Saker Falcon involved confidential information and that the personal information of those present must be kept confidential.

And because all videos played back by the base were not allowed to be downloaded or recorded, her videos soon disappeared from the Internet.

The only ones who took screenshots crazily at the time were the ones who could appreciate the so-called "beauty of the age" with the low-definition pictures.

But in fact, the videos of the people who were present, especially the other result teams, were not taken down, so people started posting and discussing on the forum, saying that it was very likely related to the mysterious girl who hunted the Saker Falcon at that time. It was said that the biggest possibility was either the daughter of some powerful person, or a non-human, the latest robot developed by the base research institute. Some also said that she was a special mission executor. In short, Gu Tongwan's identity instantly cast a thick layer of mystery over people's whereabouts.

Just when Gu Tongwan was queuing, a middle-aged woman in her fifties suddenly cut in line while the two young couples behind her were not paying attention.
