My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

Before Shan Nai could exchange more than a few words with the system, her thoughts were interrupted by a group of people dressed in uniform blue.

"Speak," Ning Lan said, her brows furrowing slightly.

"The number of residents infected with this strange disease has surged in the past two days, and it's almost out of control..."

Before the captain could finish speaking, a group of people rushed over from the other end of the indoor gold street.

Getting closer, getting closer.

Meanwhile, a group of black-clad guards appeared behind Ning Lan at some unknown time, and quickly assembled with the blue-clad guards who had arrived from the side.

"President Ning, please save me!"

"Save my baby, she's not even eight months old... This damn virus is coming after me!"

"President Ning, we are all legal residents of the Doomsday Oasis. This sudden outbreak of infectious virus, you must give us an explanation! It hurts so much! My whole body aches!"

"What should I do? What should I do? I heard that in the later stages, the whole body will fester and suffocate! Internal organs will corrode, and the process will be worse than death... I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

"President Ning, your healing ability is already at level six, you can definitely save us, right?"

A group of people rushed towards Ning Lan.

If it weren't for the guards and garrison protecting them, they would have pounced on them long ago.

These people's faces were extremely red, and some had already started to develop blisters and ulcers, which looked quite frightening.

Ning Lan remained expressionless. She raised her index finger and placed it on her luscious red lips. "Shh, be quiet, okay?"

The people at the scene were all very emotional, and no one listened to Ning Lan at all.

There was even a tall, strong man who was desperately resisting the guards, trying to rush in and shouting that Ning Lan should take responsibility.

'boom. ’

Ning Lan quickly pulled out the handgun she had bought at the supermarket and shot the shouting man in the head.

Blood spurted out, and screams erupted from the scene.

Ning Lan sighed and fired a few more shots into the air towards an empty area, 'bang bang bang'.

"Shut up, can you do it? If not, then all of you should die." Ning Lan's tone was somewhat impatient.

Several gunshots and cold words finally brought the crowd to a temporary halt.

"Although this is a shelter, it doesn't guarantee your safety!" Ning Lan took two steps towards the crowd and continued, "As for the medicine to treat the strange illness, luckily, we met Boss Cat..."

Ning Lan briefly introduced the origin of galangal and the use of its antidote.

Fortunately, the medical team they brought had purchased a small batch of medicines and supplies in advance.

Although Yamana explained to her that such special supplies needed to be purchased on the same day and delivered the next day, she thought it was a bit outrageous at the time, so she asked the medical team to buy some in advance for emergencies. She didn't expect them to come in handy so quickly.

The readily available antidote can be used to soothe those who are seriously ill.

Upon hearing that there was an antidote, everyone's expression immediately changed.

Everyone immediately turned their attention to Yamana.

"Really... your antidote can really save us..." The boy standing at the front stared intently at Yamana.

Shan Nai coughed a few times. "Yes, everyone, don't panic. Some people on your cruise ship have already been cured after using the antidote, so don't be afraid."

“Ignore them, Mr. Cat. Can we install the vending machine now?” Ning Lan asked.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Shannai needs the system to scan the entire region to see where the most suitable place is.

Ning Lan also arranged for the doctors to sell the purchased antidote to severely ill infected individuals according to the supermarket's ratio, while those with milder cases could wait in line to purchase it from the vending machine.

The medical team was extremely busy.

No one noticed where He Yu was or what he was doing.

[The system has already scanned the area. One unit needs to be deployed in the center of the lobby, and one unit needs to be deployed on the entertainment deck.]

Upon receiving the system notification, Shannai immediately began to take action.

For Shan Nai's safety, Ning Lan specially sat with her in the sightseeing vehicle and accompanied her.

The residents who were too agitated and crowded on Golden Street were temporarily suppressed by the cruise ship's guards.

The Doomsday Oasis is 500 meters long; it would be really inconvenient without this mode of transportation.

The first floor is a shopping center, and in the center of the Golden Street is a small square with a fountain for leisure and entertainment. It would be the perfect place to put the first vending machine.

Shannai turned on her smart bracelet, her fingers flying across the screen as she selected a specific location, adjusted the best direction, and clicked 'Confirm Deployment'.

With each upgrade of the supermarket, all the items it contains will change accordingly.

The vending machine is also larger than before, with several more rows of items available for purchase on-site, and an additional section for quick and delicious boxed meals.

Even Ning Lan, who had seen a great deal in her life, was taken aback when Shan Nai pulled out such a massive machine, and was deeply moved.

Exaggerated, outrageous, terrifying, and fantastical were the words that came to mind.

If the world before her eyes were not the reality of her life for the past 26 years, she might have thought it was a dream.

"Done. It's great that there are still boxed meals available for purchase." Shan Nai stood in front of the control screen, entered her fingerprint, and completed the final power-on process.

Although it's a boxed meal service, there are 30 different types to choose from, making it very quick and easy.

"President Ning, just now when we were distributing the antidote, a resident started a scramble and the antidote... disappeared!" The guard rushed over in a panic, sweating profusely.

Ning Lan also looked at Shan Nai, somewhat helplessly, "There's no shortage of shameful good-for-nothings everywhere..."

“Illegal means or damaging Lucky Supermarket’s goods will be punished accordingly. He was probably electrocuted.” Yamana shrugged, her gaze indifferent.

Ning Lan knew the store rules and had guessed this.

"Yes, yes, yes, he was... he was electrocuted!" The guards nodded quickly.

Ning Lan waved her hand impatiently, "Throw it into the ice cave at sea as a warning to others."

The guards received the order and hurriedly left.

"I hope this didn't affect Boss Cat's mood." Ning Lan smiled playfully, a rare occurrence, and winked at Shan Nai.

Shanna shook her head.

People are all kinds of people, and even on luxury cruise ships where the wealthy live, there are plenty of rule-breakers. Yamana is used to it.

But judging from Ning Lan's actions from personally shooting and killing a rioter at the beginning to her handling of the looting incident just now, this woman who owns the Oasis in the apocalypse is a decisive, rational, and ruthless person.

The two took the elevator to the top deck of the open-air entertainment area, where the second vending machine was located.

Ning Lan didn't bring back a large quantity of antidote. She held the latest data handed to her by Assistant Liang, her expression somewhat grim.

“I was only gone for four days, and half of the people there got infected. Director He was right after all…” Ning Lan ran her beautiful fingers across her cheek, rubbed her temples, and spoke softly.

Assistant Liang glanced at Shan Nai furtively before quickly shifting his gaze, and said in a serious tone, "Yes, President Ning, the investigation team still can't find the source of the virus, but... an old professor analyzed that it doesn't seem to be a sea monster, and the mother organism is very likely on our cruise ship!"

That's right, Ning Lan had the same thought.

For six months during the summer, apart from refueling, the Doomsday Oasis sailed at sea and seemed to have no chance of bringing the virus from land to the cruise ship.

“Interesting. I need the information on all the technical staff on the cruise ship, especially the medical team, understand?”

Ning Lan tossed the documents to Assistant Liang, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her eyes. She had some guesses in her mind, as if she had figured something out.

Assistant Liang looked up at Ning Lan with a solemn expression. "Okay, I'll take care of it right away."
