On April 2029, 4, the fifth year after the apocalypse, Gu Tongwan owned his own guesthouse, a fruit and vegetable store, and two apartments.

On the day the guesthouse opened, all employees had already arrived at their posts. It was 6:30 in the morning, and several other employees who did not choose to stay in the guesthouse entered the dungeon with their "work permits".

Currently, there are several types of entry passes to the underground city. One is the underground city citizen card. The cardholder can enter by swiping the card, and there is no time limit for entering or leaving the city. The second type is the "temporary citizen card". This type of citizen card is for those who need to live in the underground city for a long period of time due to work or study. In addition to needing a second-class citizen or above in the underground city to serve as a witness and provide a guarantee, they also need to have a stable job in the underground city. Generally, the "temporary citizen card" can be used to enter and exit the underground city normally within two months, but it needs to be re-proven after two months, and a certain handling fee must be paid.

The third type is the "tourist card", which is applicable to residents of the base who travel to and from the underground city on the same day. They can freely enter and exit the underground city from 20 am to pm every day, but if they do not leave the city within the specified time period, they will be fined or warned accordingly. However, this regulation needs to be implemented slowly in the later stage. After all, the drone coverage rate in the base is only % now. After reaching half, the drone will report and criticize people who exceed the time limit in the underground city. If they do not pay the fine in time after receiving the penalty notice, their citizen card will be frozen, and it may even affect the annual review of the base's personal identity card. However, at present, the tourist card is the most convenient for citizens of the base to enter and exit. After all, the first two citizen cards are too difficult to apply for. It is better to swipe the card every day to enter the underground city, which is also more convenient for people who work and travel back and forth.

Today, the third batch of underground city citizens and other citizens will enter the underground city after nine o'clock. All the people in the guesthouse have gathered in the restaurant. Gu Tongwan and Liao Yunyun, who came to help, both changed into light casual clothes, deciding to help when there is a shortage of manpower.

"Because it's the first day, there may not be too many people staying here. The front desk still has to keep an eye on the guests. If you are not very busy, you can go to the cashier to help. The front desk will be temporarily managed by Sister Zhang (one of the cleaning ladies). If there is anything that requires computer operation, you can go to the restaurant to find Meimei, or you can come to me." Gu Tongwan first looked at the cleaning lady, and after the cleaning lady nodded, he turned to other people.

"The restaurant may be busy today. Chef Yu needs to serve the food quickly. Xiao Li, you are the waiter, so you have to take care of many things. I will let Xiao Chen come to help you here. If the kitchen staff really can't help, please let me know in advance and I will find a way to transfer other people over."

"Security outside will be temporarily handed over to Xiaoyu and Xiaomo, while Luoluo and Meimei will be in charge of the restaurant. Yunyun and I will help out as needed. Since it's the first day, we should do our best to entertain our guests. It's 6:50 now, and there's still some time before 9 o'clock opening. I don't know if everyone will be very busy later. During this time, everyone can take a rest or do other things first, so as not to be in a rush when the time comes."

After a brief ten-minute meeting, Gu Tongwan dismissed everyone and looked at Liao Yunyun. "What about you? Do you want to take a rest first?"

Liao Yunyun shook her head frantically: "Goodbye, I guessed that today might be busy, so I fell asleep at 10:30 yesterday and got up at 6 this morning. Seven and a half hours is enough for me to have a full day."

When Liao Yunyun was busy in the past, her sleep time would not exceed six hours a day. According to herself, her life-saving time is at least six hours. As long as she sleeps for six hours, her brain and body will be in a healthy mental state. But if it is less than six hours, the day will be muddle-headed.

Liao Yunyun checked the recipe carefully and confirmed that there was no problem before she planned to go to the yard to check on the newly planted potted plants. The growth of these potted plants was quite gratifying. A few days ago, she saw with her own eyes that the girl named Xiaozhi used her supernatural power to make the "Coral Jelly" (a variety of rose) in the yard bloom instantly. Each flower was at least the size of a palm. You know, the fragrance of coral jelly is very strong. Now dozens of coral jellies more than half a meter high are blooming at the same time, and the yard is suddenly filled with rich floral fragrance, as if being in a sea of ​​flowers.

Liao Yunyun was full of praise for the flowers and plants in the yard. She couldn't help but pick up her phone and started taking pictures. After sending them to her several group chats, everyone jumped up to ask Liao Yunyun what place this was.

Zhang Hong [Yunyun, where are you? Is this a private villa? ]

Chen Juan [You asked for leave these two days. Did you go house hunting? I heard you sold the house in the civil servants' community? ]

Huang Dachui [From my perspective, this environment doesn’t look like a villa. It seems that it is difficult for a villa to have such a large yard. And why are these menstruation plants growing so well? ]

Little Sheep [Of course this is not a villa. This place is much more beautiful than a villa. ]

Zhang Hong [Hey, Xiaoyang, have you been there before? How can you know so much about it?]

Liao Yunyun looked at the various discussions in the work group card, then responded with a smile.

Liao Yunyun [This is not a villa, this is a newly opened guesthouse by my friend, it is in the style of a homestay. If you come to the underground city in the future, you can choose to stay here. The price is favorable and the cost performance is very high. Most importantly, the environment is so good. ]

Xiao Yang [I can testify to this, the boss has great taste, the decoration style is very warm, and there is a restaurant inside. I have seen the menu, and the prices are the same as some ordinary restaurants in the inner circle, not very expensive, and most white-collar workers can afford it. ]

Zhang Hong [This restaurant is in the underground city? Wow, Yunyun, it seems that your friend is really awesome, he can actually open a guesthouse in the underground city. ]

Liao Yunyun [If you are interested, please contact me. We just opened today and there will be discounts within half a month. ]

Liao Yunyun breathed a sigh of relief after sending the message, and then looked towards the busy shop opposite. Suddenly, a scene caught Liao Yunyun's attention. It was the private detective agency that Gu Tongwan had mentioned. At this time, several people in Self-Defense Force uniforms were chatting with one of the men at the door, and then the three of them went upstairs. But in less than five minutes, the Self-Defense Force came down again, and this time there was one more person, a man in his thirties wearing a white cotton coat and jeans. This person had greeted her yesterday and seemed to be one of the joint venturers of this private detective agency.

"Yunyun, what are you looking at?"

Gu Tongwan's voice came from behind, which drew Liao Yunyun's attention back.

Gu Tongwan discovered that Liao Yunyun had been standing in the yard for a while while he was tidying up the tables and chairs on the balcony. When he came downstairs, he found that Liao Yunyun was still standing there, so he couldn't help but call her.

Liao Yunyun raised her chin and whispered, "The person from the private detective agency across the street has been taken away."

"Others?" Gu Sheng followed Liao Yunyun's gaze, but unfortunately the Self-Defense Force members had already left.

"They should be members of the Self-Defense Forces. They are still wearing their uniform. I don't know what's going on, but they don't look like they were captured. I wonder if they went back to help solve the case?" Liao Yunyun speculated boldly.

Gu Sheng whispered, "That should be the case. You should also pay attention to the people around you recently. I mean strangers."

Liao Yunyun was shocked, but thinking of the murders that had occurred during this period, she nodded and said, "I understand. Okay, let's not worry about what's happening on the other side for now."

At 8:30 in the morning, not only the [Xingxing Guesthouse] was busy preparing for the opening, but all the shops in this entire block were preparing. Some people even prepared things for the opening ceremony, usually a chicken, or some pork heads, and a pot of wine. Incense would be inserted in the prepared incense burner, which meant good luck in the opening. However, some people would place statues of the God of Wealth or Guan Yu in the store, one to attract wealth and the other to ward off evil spirits.

Xiaoyu stood in front of the guesthouse and looked around before saying with a smile, "It seems that everyone wants to make a lot of money on the first day."

Xiaoyu did not stay in the monitoring room. In fact, only one of him and Xia Yang could stay in the monitoring room. Considering that Xia Yang was missing a hand, Xiaoyu was worried that he would not be able to adapt to the first day of work, so he simply volunteered to help. Xia Yang stayed in the monitoring room to check the situation in the store.

At nine o'clock, no one noticed anything at first, and there was no movement at all. At twenty minutes past nine, even Meimei in the restaurant couldn't help but say, "Isn't it closed today? It's been so long and we haven't seen anyone?"

"Yes, it's been twenty minutes. It's time for you to come down, right?"

"Wait a little longer. Maybe something happened up there that delayed them. If there are other situations, the Self-Defense Forces should send someone to notify you."

Xiaoyu said to Gu Tongwan, "Madam, how about I go up and see what's going on?" Xiaoyu has his own bicycle. Although he lives in the store, he usually rides his bicycle to go to the farmer's market or other neighborhoods.

Gu Tongwan saw the impatience or suspicion on the faces of others, so he nodded.

Five minutes later, Xiaoyu rode his bicycle to the entrance to the city.

It wouldn't take too long to ride a bike from here, but Xiaoyu had been gone for nearly an hour and hadn't come back. It was already 10:30 in the morning, and other people on the block began to whisper to each other, suspecting that something had happened upstairs.

However, this discussion did not last long, as a sound similar to that of many vehicles running over was heard in the distance.

The sound was getting closer and closer, and someone shouted, "Look, there's a car coming!"
