Survival on a Bus: School Beauty Sisters Beg for a Place to Stay

can you?

At this moment, Lin Mo's mind was focused on the car dealership. The most important thing right now was to repair the car and improve his own strength. As for Pu Mengnan's worries?

"I'm not a psychopathic killer..."

Fortunately, Lin Mo came to his senses and didn't blurt out the word "kill." However, when he boasted about himself, he completely forgot that he had thought of using Pu Mengnan as a human shield at the gas station yesterday.

However, Pu Mengnan didn't know about that, and now that she heard Lin Mo say this, she felt quite grateful. At least she no longer had to live in fear, worried that Lin Mo would kill her for highway currency like he did with the strong man.

Could it be that he's taken a liking to me and is interested in me?

Yeah, he saw me completely naked before I got on the bus, and he looked so closely. If he really didn't have feelings for me, why didn't he tell that scumbag to clean himself up when he was checking him earlier?

Hmph~~~

Men are all such scoundrels; not a single word they utter is true.

That jerk, he seems cold on the surface, but he's actually quite frivolous.

A repressed, brooding guy, ugh~~~

It's no wonder Pu Mengnan overthinks things; it's perfectly normal for a beautiful woman, especially a very beautiful one, to be confident.

Little did she know that she was actually Lin Mo's destiny.

Because Rule 8 clearly states that buses are prohibited from running empty, the system will check the number of passengers every day, and the number of passengers must be greater than or equal to 1.

Yesterday at the gas station, Lin Mo could have pushed Pu Mengnan out to save himself at any time, because it was daytime and he had time to take in other passengers to fill his seat. But after spending a day together, a passenger like Pu Mengnan, who is not only beautiful and sexy, but also straightforward and unpretentious, obedient and doesn't cause trouble, and is even willing to share his burdens, is simply the best choice to keep. How could Lin Mo possibly bear to kill her?

After finishing his sentence, Lin Mo didn't even look at Pu Mengnan's slightly embarrassed and flushed face, which was flushed from her self-conquest. He quickly focused his attention back on the train conductor's online store.

The in-car shopping mall is divided into three main categories.

The three objectives are: first, to maintain and upgrade buses; second, to enhance personal skills; and third, to build an arsenal.

Bus repairs aren't expensive; the price depends on the extent of the damage, with the highest being 50 road coins. After the system scanned Lin Mo's bus, the quote was 38 road coins.

Lin Mo naturally didn't hesitate and directly chose to pay for the repair.

Crunch, crunch~~~

"What's wrong? Why is the car suddenly shaking?"

The sudden maintenance process instantly caused the previously stationary bus to sway and shake, startling Pu Mengnan, who was completely unprepared.

"It's nothing, the system is fixing the car."

After Lin Mo finished speaking, he checked the car modification and upgrade project.

Compared to repairs, renovations and upgrades are much more expensive.

Installing a protective net costs 100 euros.

Adding a triangular anti-collision cone costs 100 euros.

Even tire protection cones cost 50 road coins.

Upgrading the entire vehicle's strength would cost 500 highway coins per upgrade.

As for weapon upgrades and living area space modifications, the prices weren't cheap either, which made him feel really disheartened. He suddenly realized that his 320 Highway Coins... no, his remaining 282 Highway Coins weren't a huge sum anymore.

Next, let's look at the category of improving personal skills.

Awakening a superpower costs 500 Highway Coins each time.

Randomly adds 10 highway coins to attributes once.

Increase attributes by 50 Highway Coins per instance.

Evolutionary ability potential costs 100 Highway Coins per attempt.

They all want money, and they're rife with shady dealings.

Lin Mo no longer had the courage to look at the armory; given the system's nature, it was probably ridiculously expensive.

But what should we do with the remaining 282 highway credits?

The car is repaired. Should we install additional safety measures?

Having experienced the gas station incident yesterday, followed by being chased by a loud, soft monster all the way, and nearly losing his life in a car crash, Lin Mo knew very well that upgrading the bus was essential. However, he currently had limited highway coins, and even if he discussed borrowing some from Pu Mengnan, more than three hundred of them wouldn't be enough for the upgrade.

After careful consideration, Lin Mo decided to spend 150 road coins to install triangular anti-collision cones and tire protection cones on the bus, increasing its ability to get out of trouble in time if it gets caught in a brawl.

There were 132 highway coins left.

Lin Mo's current options are to either increase the attribute twice in a targeted manner or increase the attribute thirteen times randomly, but in the end, Lin Mo only spent 30 highway coins to choose to increase the attribute three times randomly.

Leaving 100 highway coins is both to save up for awakening superpowers and to be prepared for any eventuality. Having money in hand keeps you calm, and even if the car breaks down in danger, you'll still have money to repair it.

Congratulations! You have spent 10 Highway Coins to gain a random Charm attribute of +1.

Congratulations! You have spent 10 Highway Coins to obtain a random +2 Stamina attribute.

Congratulations! You have spent 10 Highway Coins to obtain a random Strength attribute +1.

Although the highway survival system doesn't have a personal attribute panel like in online games, Lin Mo could clearly feel different changes in his body as the system prompts popped up. He felt more energetic and his spirits were better than before. In any case, he didn't feel as tired as before.

After doing all this, Lin Mo opened the train commander's chat platform to see how many people were still alive.

The number of people has changed.

It became a thousand people again, and I thought it should be the start of a new day, with the districts merging.

How many more people will die today?

Lin Mo believed that those who survived from day one were not simply lucky. He suspected that most of the thousand tank commanders were cautious and prudent, which would greatly increase their survival rate today.

At this time, most of the chat messages were complaints about how expensive things were in the mall.

"Damn it, I worked myself to the bone all day and only earned 100 road credits. 50 of that went to car repairs. How am I supposed to play games now?"

"Exactly! Passengers do nothing and get paid the same as us, but when we collect fares, they whine and yell about voting to fire me. This is such a pathetic job for a bus driver."

"Holy crap, them? Boss, how many passengers did you pick up? I encountered four yesterday, and not only did I kill two of them by mistake, but the remaining passenger looked like he wanted to eat me alive."

"Who did you kill that he hates you so much?"

"Her husband even chatted with her about their relationship."

"Damn it, you're a real animal. You killed her man and then... you know... how come she didn't kill you?"

"Brothers, what do you think is the best thing to add?"

"Everyone, everyone, I'm in dire need of help! Does anyone have any spare supplies? Can you sell me some? I almost died yesterday while refueling. If I hadn't run fast, I would have been dragged into the convenience store and executed by that eight-foot-tall woman! Waaah~~~"

"I have some, a bottle of water costs 10 euros."

"You beast, could you be any darker?"

"Are you as miserable as me? At least you found a gas station with supplies. I can't help but curse when I think about that empty convenience store yesterday. I don't know which bastard was so dishonest, but he emptied the whole store, leaving me surrounded by zombies just to fill up with gas. I almost couldn't escape..."

Hahaha~~~

"Yeah, yeah, you're even worse off, hahaha~~~"

"..."

Whether it was simply because they didn't have the money, or because most people chose to avoid the topic, apart from a few people who were concerned about vehicle upgrades, almost everyone else was just chatting idly. But this also allowed Lin Mo to discover a business opportunity.

That's right, it was the supplies that he and Pu Mengnan emptied the convenience store and piled up in the car.

When there is demand, there is market.

The train commander trading platform isn't just for the regional channel with a thousand users, but for the entire train commander world channel. He believed there would always be unlucky guys who got nothing, like that guy in the back cursing, saying someone emptied the convenience store, what a bastard...

Wait a minute~~~

Why does this sound so familiar?

An empty convenience store, now surrounded by zombies...

Damn, he insulted me?
