The man’s words immediately changed Lv Chang’s expression, and he frowned, looking at the camera connected to the surveillance system. He instantly realized that there must be survivors hiding in this mall, and they were likely the kind hiding in shelters.
Upon hearing the voice, KIKI immediately stepped in front of Lv Chang, looked up at the camera, and frowned, saying
"Who are you, and why are you asking us to leave?"
Unexpectedly, after KIKI spoke, the other side of the camera seemed to fall silent.
"Why aren’t you speaking anymore?"
At this moment, the camera once again emitted a voice: "This beauty can stay, but the others cannot."
After that, the voice from the camera suddenly became sly: "Beauty, I’ve got a several hundred-square post-apocalyptic base here, with ample resources, double-layer steel protection, electricity, water, handsome men, and various entertainment facilities. How about it, interested in joining us?"
Who could have imagined there was a doomsday base inside the mall? KIKI instantly thought of something wicked upon hearing this.
She squinted at the camera: "You guys? How many people do you have?"
"Haha, not many people, the space is spacious enough, there’s a handsome guy here, plus three other beauties to keep you company."
After that, the camera transmitted the man’s shout, seemingly beckoning someone: "Hey, you three, make some noise... Quick!!"
"Yes, we have everything here," several coquettish female voices sounded at this time.
"There’s clean water every day, meat every day, and games to play~"
Lv Chang widened his eyes on the side and joked, "Hey buddy, I have Superpower, can I come?"
But the man on the other side immediately refused: "No interest, no interest, my shelter only accepts beauties, no one else. You guys hurry and leave, and that beauty, have you made up your mind? I have special beds for you here~"
Listening to this, KIKI felt a chill run down her spine and ground her teeth, but her face showed an innocent expression defensively, saying
"Well...but I’m with them, what happens to them if I go?"
"Whatever happens to them." The man, upon hearing KIKI’s words, seemed to smell a hint of success and immediately said with vigor: "Beauty, survival is the fundamental thing in these times. Roaming here and there might get you killed in a sewer on the roadside. Why care about them? Why not come to me? My bed is big and comfortable. At night, you don’t have to fear anything except me, hahaha..."
Lv Chang listening to this felt things were going south. He quickly looked at KIKI, and unexpectedly, not only was she not angry, but she suddenly turned to look at him, showing signs of a struggle.
Soon afterward, he saw KIKI signaling him with a fierce look, causing his heart to jump, he swallowed hard, beginning to feel sorry for the camera man’s fate. Once he reacted, he quickly cooperated and said: "KIKI, don’t believe that guy’s bullshit, he is definitely lying. This place has been empty for who knows how long, where are the supplies coming from?"
"Pah!" Lv Chang’s words instantly infuriate the man on the camera, who sneered: "Stop using that crap on me, my safe house is at platform 6, room 601. If you dare, come up, but be warned, if you idiots are still rummaging through my stuff in this mall when time’s up, I’ll activate the fire alarm, and it’ll be hard for you to get out!"
"Damn, that’s ruthless!"
Lv Chang was dumbfounded upon hearing this; it was one thing for this guy to build a shelter for beauties, in a lawless apocalypse, this wasn’t unusual.
But this guy treated the whole mall as his turf, not even allowing others to search for supplies, that was a bit overbearing.
At this time, KIKI turned her head and signaled to a few others, leaving them dumbfounded, though they understood. They immediately began pushing things towards a mall exit.
KIKI then looked at the camera, displaying an innocent and tense expression.
"Okay, I’m heading up, don’t lie to me." KIKI said sweetly.
"No way, come quickly, there’s plenty of good food!" The man was very excited, nearly howling.
KIKI subtly snorted, knowing there should be quite a few cameras within the mall, so she didn’t use Superpower, and headed straight up the mall’s platform apartment building.
Soon, stepping out from the mall’s rooftop, the upper apartments were luxurious large flat layouts, and just stepping out onto the platform, she could see one of them had walls and windows welded with thick steel plates, judging by the craftsmanship, it must have cost a fortune using security companies.
In the early days of Doomsday, many people had the idea of building safe houses. Some enthusiasts were extremely active, creating underground safe houses or bizarre apartment conversions, when society hadn’t yet collapsed, money still worked as currency.
The apartment door was replaced by a heavy alloy door, equipped with a viewing window and surveillance. KIKI realized that this residence was meticulously designed, even the hallway’s stairway was covered, making the corridor feel narrower, ensuring no penny was spared.
KIKI knocked on the door, shhh, the viewing window on the alloy door opened, revealing the face of a slightly overweight man in his thirties, his complexion and lips pale, with a sense of emptiness, yet his eyes sparkled.
"Open the door, I’ve arrived." KIKI said sweetly.
