Chapter 3 New Life

You can turn a deaf ear to the wailing sounds of human relics and live a peaceful life for a few days. But the back of all this beauty has long been marked with the price.

It's just that you knew nothing at that time.

Zhang Sirui—

Everything, created by humans, intended to bring a better life to humans, gradually collapsed and rioted one after another, and eventually, they would try to destroy everything in the most violent way.

You took Sunday back to the ground early in the morning of the third day, and the entire community was filled with smoke and dust. You traced the source along the scorch marks of the explosion and found that the sugar factory next to this community had been blown up.

After humans disappeared, no one stopped the automated production chain of the sugar factory. It worked day and night for forty-eight hours, and the air was filled with fine and flammable sugar particles that could be visible to the naked eye. Perhaps it was the aging of a part in the production chain, or perhaps it was the sudden short circuit of a circuit. Just a moment, a small spark could ignite all the dust in the sugar factory.

The explosion affected not only this community, but also the cables along the road were burned out. Occasionally, sporadic smell of raw meat burning, and more of an indescribable odor.

You can no longer survive here.

You returned to your parents' house and put all the food you came from the convenience store into the Bentley in the underground garage. You took the paper and pen, and your ID card, and took it into the car with Sunday.

The puppy's hair is covered with smoke and dust, and it is not ashes. You pat off the dust on its body and whisper:

“We have to cheer up.”

You open the map software on your phone, searching for suitable destinations while planning your future.

You can drive back to Xiangjiang City and find the house of your own. You have lived there for nearly ten years and will definitely find many clues about yourself, which can help you regain your memories.

But you have lost your memory. For you at this moment, Xiangjiang City is actually a strange place. It is not a wise choice to waste a few hours from an unfamiliar place to another unfamiliar place. You don’t want to repeat the same mistakes.

Besides, you have learned from the letter that there is no trace of human beings in Xiangjiang City. Retrieving memories is not your top priority, seeing living people is. Loneliness has begun to erode your spirit.

Just considering survival. Maybe you should find a place far away from the city and close to the water source. The Sugar Factory Explosion is just the beginning, and many machines in the city are still operating. God knows whether there will be any short-circuit explosions again. The entire Kangzhou City may be like a time bomb to you.

But you are not going to leave.

City means network, signal tower, and radio station.

Staying in the city is a little more likely to meet humans.

You long to see humans.

You have finalized your destination.

Platinum Junjue Hotel.

A five-star hotel located in Hetian District, Gangzhou City, the most prosperous place in the city.

It is tall enough. It is 470 meters tall, which is higher than the landmark building of the Gangzhou City. You can overlook the entire Gangzhou City from the top floor. Whether it is looking for humans or asking for help from satellites in the sky, it is excellent.

It is also good enough. Every five-star hotel has extremely thoughtful daily necessities, and the business district is nearby, where you can have no worries about food and clothing. Its construction quality is excellent, and it can ensure its safety whether it is a typhoon or an earthquake.

The third reason you know in your heart but don't want to think about it is that it is expensive enough. It is the most expensive hotel you have found on Dianping. The room rate for the presidential suite in one night has exceeded 40,000 yuan. Those who can stay here are either rich or noble. If it weren't for the special situation now, you might not have the opportunity to experience such a luxurious life in your life.

After arriving at the hotel, you were turned away.

You don’t have a room card. You can’t even use an elevator without a room card. You can’t power the room without a room card.

There was no one at the front desk, you walked in casually, the computer was on, you could check in for yourself. But you had never done hotel reception and didn't know the specific procedures. After fiddling for a while, you realized that you didn't need to know how to check in at all.

Because your ID card is broken.

Just the day before yesterday, when you used it to pry the door, you pried it apart.

You gave up the idea of ​​checking in, opened the drawer at the front desk, and took a large stack of room cards. These were all unactivated. You didn't have hope, but just wanted to treat it as a living horse. You went up the second floor through the fire corridor, and found a room to swipe a few cards. It was true. You started to feel a little headache, looked around, and your eyes stopped at the cleaning room.

——Some guests will stay for two or three days. When they leave during the day, they will hang a sign "Please clean" and notify the cleaner to change daily necessities.

This means that the cleaner can open the door.

You broke into the cleaning room, brutally cracked the employee locker, and got the cleaning card.

The door is opened. The card is inserted into the card slot and the room is powered on.

You were overjoyed and turned back to the elevator, swiped your card, and went all the way to the 190th floor.

Presidential Suite.

Poverty limits your imagination.

The area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters and the design of floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides is enough to give you a panoramic view of Guangzhou. This entire floor belongs to the presidential suite, with nine rooms of different styles built in. The master bedroom is facing east. Every morning, you can see the sunrise here without any confinement. The wall of the study is hung with capsule coffee and coffee maker. The open kitchen in the main hall is housed with a huge double-door refrigerator. The frozen layer below is filled with old ice for bartending, and the quick-frozen A5 Wagyu beef airlifted from Japan. It is also thoughtfully marked with the hotel front desk providing chefs' door-to-door cooking services. The bathtub is like a small swimming pool, facing the floor-to-ceiling window. The window is an electronic glass screen, which can be atomized with one click or on-demand.

TV shows and music. The mother river of the Pearl River in Gangzhou City is flowing quietly four hundred meters below you. There is a marble-carved spiral ladder in the southeast, leading to the top rooftop. The roof itself is used as a bar, and you are in a VIP area, separated from the area of ​​other guests. It is made of wooden boards as the main material to make a simple American country-style building. Here, you can find an exquisite bar counter, the wine cabinet at the back is filled with famous wines with amazing prices, and a complete mixing tool: a scher pot, a bar spoon, an ice filter, an ice machine, and a hand-chipped ice hockey. The opposite of the bar counter is a huge infinity swimming pool, and under a dazzling array of parasols, it is a large outdoor commercial barbecue stove produced in Germany.

You lie on the roof guardrail and look down. Across the street, there is a Walmart supermarket with all supplies.
