Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

"Unexcused absence will result in one fine per person..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shi Jinwei pulled out a glutinous rice ball.

The glutinous rice balls, emitting a delicious aroma, gleamed white under the light.

The last few words, "tumor ghost," were silently swallowed back.

His eyes were fixed on the dumpling in Shi Jinwei's hand. Just as he was about to reach for it, the dumpling disappeared.

The sarcoma-like creature: "???"

Seeing that it was about to get angry, Shi Jinwei pointed to the broken clock on the wall and calmly said, "Today's wages haven't been settled."

The glass on the watch face was shattered, but the hands were still moving steadily.

The time is 17:26.

They've finished get off work and need food and shelter.

The tumor-like creature indeed stopped; it too had to abide by the rules.

It didn't call out names; it just pointed at the player and called them "you."

Neither of them revealed their true identities, among which:

Shi Jinwei, 25 positive reviews, no negative reviews. Received 1750 Ghost Coins, and a single dormitory room.

Chen Qi, no positive reviews, no negative reviews. Received 10 Ghost Coins, and a four-person dormitory room.

Xiao Yiguo, no good reviews, no bad reviews. Received 10 Ghost Coins, and a four-person dormitory room.

Li Miao, no positive reviews, no negative reviews. Received 10 Ghost Coins, and a four-person dormitory room.

When they heard that Shi Jinwei had received 25 positive reviews, everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.

Shi Jinwei took out a glutinous rice ball and handed it to the fleshy monster, then continued to ask, "Can one incense stick be enough for the three of them to share a dormitory room?"

It wasn't out of kindness.

After a day of working together, it was confirmed that all three of them simply wanted to complete the game.

Now, having fewer deaths will only benefit her in clearing the game.

To put it bluntly, if the devil wants to eat people, then by comparison, we should start with them.

Of course, she wouldn't hesitate to punish them if they got any bad ideas.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes. While the other players were all bewildered, the fleshy monster noticed it.

After two days of trading, it also learned that this little piece of trash looked soft and cuddly.

But the heart is even more ruthless than that cunning one.

The glutinous rice balls and incense sticks can not only soothe its hungry stomach, but also heal its injuries.

It's even more effective than eating this bunch of trash.

So when Shi Jinwei made the suggestion, it nodded without hesitation. But it still added, "This is a one-time exception; don't do it again."

He looked up at the ceiling and shook himself.

Its movements were so subtle that only Chen Qi and Shi Jinwei noticed them.

She handed the incense sticks to the fleshy monster, not even afraid that it would steal them.

Even a cunning person understands the principle of slow and steady wins the race.

After taking the items, the sarcoma-like creature led them back to the dormitory, with Shi Jinwei walking at the very back.

The moment the office door closed, she quickly pulled out two glutinous rice balls from her pocket.

While the others weren't paying attention, he threw the dumpling into the dark shop, casually closed the door, and remained calm.

No one noticed the subtle action. True to his word, the sarcoma assigned Chen Qi, Li Miao, and Xiao Yiguo to the same dormitory, which was Xiao Yiguo's dormitory from yesterday.

The ghost inside is still sleeping.

Shi Jinwei was also assigned to the dormitory from yesterday, which was exactly the same as when she left.

After sending the person inside, the sarcoma-like creature didn't leave immediately but lingered by the door.

She was about to close the door when she saw this and asked directly, "Is something the matter?"

The tumor asked slyly, "Can I have two more incense sticks? I'll give you a good review every day for the next two days."

Its injuries were so severe that it shrank in size, but it was still quite large.

However, his eyes were visible.

They actually look a little... pitiful.

But Shi Jinwei wouldn't soften her stance: "No!"

With a "snap," the ghost was shut out.

The sarcoma monster, having been turned away, instantly turned grim.

Thinking of the glutinous rice balls tomorrow, the restless tumor refrained from spitting out pus and slowly left.

I slept soundly through the night, and the next day the tumor arrived right on time to "pick me up."

The other three also looked much better today.

Their eyes lit up when they saw Shi Jinwei, their expressions filled with gratitude and an eagerness to share.

She gave the three of them a "be patient" look and followed the fleshy monster into the shop.

The house, which was smashed to pieces yesterday, has miraculously recovered today.

Everything looked spotless and brand new.

Because the incident happened so suddenly yesterday, the sarcoma monster left without being reassigned to a new position.

Before leaving, she asked Shi Jinwei for three dumplings.

She wanted more incense, but as if she hadn't heard him, she walked straight to the vending machine.

The tumor seemed to grit its teeth in a sinister yet helpless manner.

It couldn't find any leverage to negotiate with Shi Jinwei.

The only rights they had were to assign job positions, settle wages, and allocate dormitories.

But this little piece of trash can do all of this by itself; it doesn't need to go through any back channels.

Dejected, the four left and then ate and chatted again.

Having received Shi Jinwei's care yesterday, they were too embarrassed to ask her about the uses of the glutinous rice balls and incense sticks.

I told her what happened last night.

"That monster was called 'Sleepyhead,' and we originally wanted to get rid of it. But this guy just kept sleeping and couldn't be woken up, so we tied it up," Li Miao said while eating bread.

Last night, she only received 10 ghost coins as her salary, and she couldn't bear to spend the money to buy other food.

Chen Qi added, "There's another concern: I'm afraid that if I act rashly, I might trigger other unknown rules."

After yesterday's events, they realized that although the store manager seemed to be the most powerful person in the store, he didn't have much real power, probably because he was bound by hidden rules.

They just wanted to get through smoothly and didn't want to cause any trouble.

Shi Jinwei nodded knowingly. Twenty minutes passed quickly, and everyone dispersed to start working.

Noticing that the glutinous rice balls she had thrown out the night before were gone, she stopped at the cashier and placed a stick of incense at her feet.

Instantly, a strange broadcast voice rang in my mind:

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you have gained 5 points of favorability with the "Convenience Store" character!]

She was bewildered; her guess turned out to be true.

This convenience store is also haunted, the living kind.

Its level is higher than that of the tumor, so its authority should be the highest in the convenience store.

Thinking of this, she threw another dumpling on the ground without making a broadcast.

They threw away an incense stick, but didn't broadcast anything.

Remembering yesterday's quantity, I added an extra dumpling, and my favorability increased by 1 point.

Ha, how greedy.

He thought expressionlessly, but didn't stop feeding the baby.

With an experimental attitude, she tried garlic, raw glutinous rice, candles, and chicken and dog blood.

When the quantities are equal, the effects are: chicken blood = dog blood > candle > incense stick > cooked glutinous rice > raw glutinous rice.

As for the garlic, it hasn't disappeared.

The effects of chicken blood and dog blood in warding off evil spirits were not visible. On the contrary, feeding the shop 10ml increased their favorability by 10 points.

After a series of actions, the store's favorability rating rose to 32 points.

There are no reward notifications, so I'll probably have to keep grinding.

However, when a customer came to pay, she stopped planning and started focusing on her work.

The first customer to check out was "Mischievous Ghost".

It's not very aggressive, but as soon as Shi Jinwei puts the items she's paid for into her bag, it takes them out and throws them aside, laughing "giggle giggle".

She had no means of attacking, so she endured it again and again.

When it threw something for the sixth time, it finally couldn't take it anymore, took out a peach wood sword from its spatial storage, and hit it on the head.
