Doomsday Vacation Plan

[Complete, undergoing gradual revisions. The upcoming story blurb is below~]

[Apocalypse + Natural Disasters + Travel + Management]

Qiao Jin was an outstanding employee of the Management Bureau, and she’d earned a wonderful chance to take a paid vacation.

Before she even had time to celebrate, she stared at the zombie that had appeared right in her face and slowly typed a question mark: ?

System: Your vacation destination has been reached. We hope you have a wonderful holiday~

Qiao Jin: (●, ●)…

Who takes someone on vacation in the middle of a zombie horde?!

*

[You have received a new guesthouse. Please check it out~]

Before long, everyone in the apocalypse knew that a guesthouse had opened in the city center.

With zombies surrounding the city, the little landlady sat sunbathing on a stool outside her guesthouse.

In the midst of a scorching heat wave, the little landlady ate chilled watermelon in the guesthouse’s air-conditioned room.

As acid rain poured down, the little landlady tucked into spicy hot pot at the guesthouse’s buffet restaurant.

Everyone was insanely jealous. How could anyone be vacationing in the middle of the apocalypse?!

Qiao Jin just blinked, smiling innocently. “But I really am here on vacation.”

Everyone: …

*

As the number of zombies in the apocalypse continued to grow, Qiao Jin finally realized something was wrong.

Then, one night, two figures clashed inside an abandoned building.

In the end, she pressed a small knife to the throat of the person before her. All around them lay ruins and emptiness.

“You lose, Mr. Zombie.”

“So, are you going to kill me, Miss Human?”

#The apocalypse vacation of a sweet-looking, secretly ruthless little landlady begins!

==Below is the blurb for the upcoming companion novel, “Hot Pot Again Today”==

[Ocean Apocalypse + Survival + Food + Management]

Yan Ting woke up to find herself forced into a global ocean survival game.

Fortunately, the System had prepared a starter pack for her, calling it a “new player reward”:

[Congratulations, you have received 1 portion of hot pot base.]

[Congratulations, you have received 1 portion of tripe for hot pot.]

[Congratulations, you have received 1 portion of shrimp paste.]

…

Yan Ting: Wow, who moved an entire hot pot restaurant here?

*

[Your hot pot restaurant has been delivered. Please check it out.]

Yan Ting never dared imagine that one day she’d be able to open a hot pot restaurant of her own.

Come rain or tsunami, once she’d finally made it to opening day, business only kept getting better.

Bottomless hot pot broth, meat and vegetables in perfect balance, seafood platters…

Help-yourself dipping sauces, grilled snacks, extra desserts…

Everyone: Isn’t it a little too extravagant to eat like this every day…?

Yan Ting: Gotta stay plump and prosperous (?)

*

Ever since the Management Bureau began losing staff, the System had long since stopped expecting much from this batch of newcomers

except for one person.

But that day, as wind and rain raged across the sea, the thoughts she’d finally sorted out still hadn’t been spoken aloud.

Rain poured down. The girl stood alone, staring at the towering wall of seawater rising before her.

“In that case, let’s sever our connection.”

“…You haven’t wronged me. I just don’t want to be bound to you anymore.”
