Global Collapse

Chapter 208 Drinking Orange Juice Soda That Made Me Bubbly with Happiness [Thanks to the person currently dating a prostitute for the patronage]

Is there someone else who looks exactly like her?

Gu Mian took a special look at the uneasy girl. She had a high ponytail, wore glasses, and the people next to her said her name was Xiao Mei.

Without lingering, Gu Mian continued walking towards the back of the carriage, turning off the walkie-talkie.

Because the walkie-talkie might crackle with unreliable statements like, "There's an extra one in my carriage too, there really is a ghost here!"

So Gu Mian made sure to turn off the sound when she inspected the carriage.

He felt the walkie-talkie through his pocket, then walked towards the back of the car.

Just then, a male voice suddenly came from behind: "Flight attendant?"

Gu Mian turned around and looked back.

The person who made the sound was a middle-aged man wearing glasses, who looked refined and cultured.

At first glance, this person seems to have the same style as Chu Changge and Hanshan, but if you take age into account, he should be more like Hanshan.

Because Hanshan is quite old.

"Could you get me a bottle of soda, orange flavored?" the man asked.

Gu Mian had never worked as a waiter, but he still kept in mind the second rule of the flight attendant code.

2. Flight attendants should try their best to fulfill passengers' orders and should not refuse them.

While keeping this rule in mind, Gu Mian readily agreed, "Okay, no problem."

In fact, this passenger, who looked as old as Hanshan, could only drink orange-flavored soda because there were no other flavors available in the restaurant's warehouse.

Gu Mian quickly returned to the restaurant counter at the back of the carriage.

From this spot, you can see the situation in the next carriage, which should be the carriage where the Angel of Death is located.

Gu Mian glanced over there and saw the long-haired girl standing in the aisle of the passenger area, seemingly talking to the passenger next to her.

Then, she seemed to notice Gu Mian in the carriage ahead and looked up in her direction.

Gu Mian noticed that her expression was somewhat puzzling.

However, her gaze didn't linger for long. She nodded to the passenger next to her and then walked towards the back of her carriage.

Holding her work ID, Gu Mian walked towards the warehouse behind the restaurant counter.

Above the warehouse door was a sign that looked like it was made of aluminum. Gu Mian looked up and saw that it read "Restaurant Warehouse, Carriage No. 4".

The warehouse door did indeed require a card to open. Gu Mian swiped her card on the card reader on the door and heard a "beep beep" sound.

The door opened.

At the same time, an announcement came from overhead—

"Attention passengers, the train is about to arrive at the second stop, Qianyingcheng. The train will stop for one minute. Passengers who wish to disembark, please prepare in advance."

Gu Mian glanced up at the loudspeaker above; they were about to arrive at their stop.

However, the name Thousand Infant City... he frowned in confusion.

The name of this second stop is truly terrifying.

For some reason, hearing this name made Gu Mian subconsciously think of the IOU for the Nine-Headed Infant that she had drawn.

The door to the restaurant's storeroom was already open. Without thinking much about anything else, Gu Mian stepped inside.

The restaurant's storage area is small, only about ten square meters. It is very spacious and clean.

Gu Mian only saw two rows of freezers on both sides of the room, two in each row, for a total of four large freezers placed against the wall.

It looks like the freezers used to sell popsicles in convenience stores when I was a kid, but if you look closely, you can see that these are longer than those in convenience stores, giving it a strange sense of déjà vu.

“This freezer…” Gu Mian took two steps forward and looked at the freezer in the room: “It looks like the refrigerated cabinet in our hospital morgue.”

If there were a corpse inside, it would look even more like one.

As Gu Mian pondered this, she approached a freezer on her left, intending to lift it up and see what was inside.

Just then, Fang Xiang's voice suddenly came through the walkie-talkie in his hand: "Hey everyone, have you all counted the people in your own carriages?"

Fang Xiang's tone still seemed a little weak, after all, he had run desperately. Gu Mian felt that she would feel weak too if she were in his shoes.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaotian's somewhat frightened voice came over: "Me... me too. My passenger list says there should only be thirty-five people in this carriage, but I've counted many times, and there are clearly thirty-six people in this carriage!"

Han Shan's calm voice followed: "Me too. The list shows there are twenty-five people in my carriage number three, but I counted and there are actually twenty-six people. There's one extra... Guiguzi, what about you?"

"Reporting, Lieutenant!" Gui Gu's voice startled Gu Mian: "I have one more here too!"

"Lieutenant?" the voice of the Angel of Death rang out: "Are you soldiers?"

Gu Mian retorted sarcastically, "You really do always try to flaunt your extraordinary status as a lieutenant."

Guigu's voice rang out: "Didn't that fat guy who's been following you keep calling me 'doctor' too?"

Gu Mian touched his chin, not refuting, because he couldn't think of a rebuttal for the time being.

He was holding a walkie-talkie in one hand and about to lift the lid of the freezer in front of him with the other: "A passenger on my end has requested a bottle of orange soda; of course, besides the orange soda, I've also discovered something else interesting..."

Just then, a mechanical voice rang out again.

The sound came from the overhead speakers, the front and back of the carriage, and even from the walkie-talkies—

"Dear passengers, we have arrived at the second stop, Qianying City. This stop will last one minute. Passengers who wish to disembark, please do so as soon as possible."

The mechanical sounds echoed repeatedly, making Gu Mian's ears hurt. He slung his guitar over his shoulder and felt the train had stopped.

There were no windows in the warehouse, so he stepped out and looked at the windows in the passenger area.

The second station was an open-air platform, still pitch black outside, with only a few lonely streetlights barely illuminating the open space.

"Let me check," Gu Mian said, holding a bottle of orange soda she'd taken from the freezer in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other. "We're at the second stop now. Has everyone confirmed they're alive?"

Within seconds, the others spoke up to confirm that they were still alive.

Two-ninths of the dungeon is already cleared, and it's still so peaceful and serene. It's really rare. For a moment, Gu Mian even began to wonder if anyone would die in this dungeon. Perhaps... the real danger is yet to come?

Han Shan's voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Doctor, what were you trying to say?"

Knowing he couldn't call Gu Mian by her given name, Han Shan simply addressed her as "Doctor."

Gu Mian, holding her orange soda, said, "I said..."

But just then, the voice of the Angel of Death suddenly came through the walkie-talkie: "Can you see outside?!"

The "Coo-Coo Spirit" is attempting to reach 10,000 chapters a day, and has already successfully fallen behind by 113 chapters—just over a hundred chapters...

Thanks to the person who is currently dating a girl who is also a prostitute for being the leader of this alliance.
