My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

Just as Shan Nai was about to turn around, she caught sight of Cheng Xu and the others still hanging from the tree branches out of the corner of her eye. She bit her lip, "The customers of the Alliance Building are being hung there to dry their cured meat..."

The system thinks it's safer for them to be suspended, since nobody's paying attention to them anymore.

"Wow~ You're a genius! Your idea makes some sense." Shan Nai crouched down and dashed into Lucky Supermarket.

Meanwhile, several forces behind her were slowly approaching the supermarket.

The people at Dawn Base calmed down, but then two more groups of people arrived. They needed more intelligence, and the captains waved their hands, telling their team members to stay put.

Following closely behind Shan Nai was Yu Linyin. She frowned slightly as she stared at the cat-eared girl in front of her, wanting to call out to her, but not knowing how to start the conversation.

They are a regular military organization from the official headquarters, and they came here to investigate and confirm the information about Lucky Supermarket after receiving news about it recently.

The deputy commander was very interested in this Lucky Supermarket and, despite everyone's advice against it, personally set off overnight.

"Hello... young lady, I apologize for bothering you, but do you know who is in charge of this Lucky Supermarket?" Yu Linyin pushed open the door on one side of the supermarket and gave a serious salute first.

Hearing the sound, Shan Nai turned her head and saw a short-haired woman dressed in military uniform. Her eyebrows rose slightly.

This young lady had a normal appearance and attitude, giving off an approachable vibe, and didn't seem like someone who would cause trouble.

Shanna pointed to herself and said, "That's me."

Now it was Yu Linyin's turn to be stunned. She really didn't expect that the owner of such a huge and mysterious supermarket in the apocalypse was actually a teenager.

"...I have long admired your name."

No wonder the intelligence report mentioned that the supermarket owner had the nickname "Cat Boss." Yu Linyin couldn't help but glance at Shan Nai a few more times, and she understood what was going on.

do not judge a book by it's cover.

She was a soldier and wouldn't judge a book by its cover. Yu Linyin stepped forward and explained her purpose.

"We are from the official headquarters army. Boss Cat is a very capable person, so I won't waste any more words. Our deputy commander has important matters to discuss. Could you perhaps..."

"Boss Cat! Don't believe any official bases, who knows if they're scammers!"

Yu Linyin's words were interrupted by Du Hanting, who suddenly entered.

Du Hanting glanced at Yu Linyin, who stood ramrod straight to the side, with a mocking smile on his face. "Official? Social order is about to collapse, what official is there! What use is the official? Has it done anything for us people?" His voice was not loud, but every word was sharp and meaningful.

Yu Linyin remained calm, her confident eyes completely ignoring him. "Boss Cat, this is a conversation between us, a business collaboration. I think you'll be interested."

After all, the purpose of selling supplies is to obtain crystal cores, there's no doubt about that, Yu Linyin thought.

"What a coincidence! I was also discussing a collaboration with Boss Cat! Opportunities don't wait for anyone, and we're competitors, Boss Cat. I'm the head of Tomorrow's Base. I heard you got a vending machine for the black market, and I..."

Du Hanting, with his nonchalant demeanor, was also eager to state his purpose.

"Everything is about first come, first served. You... shut up and get in line." Yu Linyin's face darkened.

Du Hanting retorted, "Big sister, please be realistic. It's the apocalypse, and you still think you're some high-ranking official?"

The two men faced off tensely, and the atmosphere quickly became serious.

Shan Nai heard one sentence from the left and another from the right, completely confused.

But at least she understood one thing: these two people were there to seek cooperation; they were clients, not robbers.

"Stop!" Yamana stretched out her arm to block them. "I welcome cooperation in buying supplies, just don't argue. But I'm afraid I don't have time right now. There's a group of people outside who want to kill me and take over the supermarket..." Yamana pouted and spoke the truth.

The two glared at each other, tacitly agreeing to a temporary truce. Du Hanting became interested, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Didn't they hear about Boss Cat's heroic deeds in taking down the Black Market Guard and the Wolf's Den base? How come there are still idiots who dare to mess with Lucky Supermarket?"

[Wow... the host's fame has spread far and wide...]

The system suddenly popped up with a message.

Shan Nai was still a little shy, her face slightly flushed as she humbly waved her hand.

The wolf's den was dealt with by the supermarket's punishment system, the black market was overthrown by its own people, and she... hehe, just happened to benefit from it.

However, Shan Nai liked this reputation; at least a smart person wouldn't do something as stupid as Cui Jiujiu.

"You flatter me, you flatter me. The rumors are a bit exaggerated, there are many other factors involved~" Yamaha stood still and wagged her tail, pinching the lace trim on her little leather skirt with her fingertips.

Yu Linyin also received this intelligence, so the deputy commander mentioned in a meeting that the owner of Lucky Supermarket should not be easily offended, and that they should be friends with him rather than enemies.

This world is too crazy, there are mutations and variants everywhere... We need to learn to assess the situation.

"Murder and robbery? Those people outside?" Yu Linyin's tone was icy, and she even let out a cold laugh.

She has encountered too many vicious criminals; murder and robbery are nothing new to her. Lucky Supermarket is such a lucrative business that it will certainly attract countless moths to a flame.

Yamana nodded repeatedly, looking aggrieved. "Yes, let's talk about cooperation after I've dealt with them. Don't worry, it'll be quick!"

At this moment, fighting broke out outside again, with gunfire and supernatural electrical discharges rising and falling.

"Holy crap, have the people at Dawn Base gone mad? They're using their numbers to target our people? Boss Cat, don't say anything more, Tomorrow Base is determined to handle this!"

When Du Hanting saw that his brother had a gun pointed at his head, he tugged at his shirt collar unhappily, and resolutely pulled out his two pistols and walked outside.

Yu Linyin also turned her gaze to the street outside the door. Tomorrow, the base will be helping Lucky Supermarket, and she needs to go back and report this first. They want to establish a good relationship with Lucky Supermarket and also need to lend a helping hand.

"Cat Boss, please be careful. I'm going to check on things." Yu Linyin said and left.

"System, what's going on? Are they going to help us solve the problem at Dawn Base?" Shan Nai tugged at her soft ears, at a loss.

Dawn Base is indeed cunning.

They must have already analyzed the supermarket's penalty mechanism and never stepped into the supermarket's safe zone.

But if anyone tries to enter the supermarket, they will be threatened, and those who resist will be beaten up and killed.

This is absolutely shameless.

They can't get customers or earn crystal cores, and they won't let Lucky Supermarket get any either.

Cui Jiujiu squatted in the space for a while, really worried about how things were developing outside.

She wondered how her teammates were doing; they were the elite team she had painstakingly trained over the past two years!

So, Cui Jiujiu decided to go out and see what was going on.

But as soon as she came out, she found the scene in complete chaos.

Many unfamiliar faces were wrestling together, and she even saw members of the official base who had appeared in her dreams!

They were also fighting against their own team members. "Why is this happening? Where is that little bitch?!" Cui Jiujiu frowned, anxious and flustered in the crowd.

Zhu Junyue spotted a familiar figure in the crowd and excitedly rushed towards her.

"Sister Jiu Jiu! Thank goodness, you're not dead! Waaah..." As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.

Cui Jiujiu was pulled into his arms, deeply moved. "Junyue, what's the situation now?"
